Guo Mingyan's words attracted everyone in the audience to look at Wen Nuan.
Wen Nuan smiled: "Our Shichanghou Mansion donated one hundred thousand taels."
Guo Mingyan: "A hundred thousand taels? Princess Hui'an's family can grow healthy vegetables worth thousands of gold, and she also has a ceramics workshop that makes a fortune every day? Isn't it too little to only donate one hundred thousand taels?"
Wen Yu smiled: "The iron cock never plucks a hair!"
Everyone: "......"
Isn't one hundred thousand taels small
Is one hundred thousand taels considered an iron rooster
Everyone fell silent.
This is the Hongmen Banquet!
If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have come to participate.
Everyone felt extremely regretful at this moment!
Most of them had prepared several thousand taels of banknotes, up to ten thousand taels, or one hundred thousand taels, and they really hadn’t thought about it!
Each household donated 100,000 taels, which can probably feed the people affected by the disaster for a year!
But who will support them this year
Nuan Nuan looked at Wen Yu: "You are not an iron rooster, how much will you donate? Will you donate one million taels?"
Wen Yu blushed: "...I, I came with the eldest princess!"
Wen Nuan smiled: "So who are you to the eldest princess?"
Wen Yu: "..."
She looked at Wen Wan. Wen Wan pretended to lower her head to comfort her son, but said nothing. She was not qualified to speak here.
She didn't want to offend the queen and the eldest princess would dislike her.
The Queen smiled: "Miss Wen Yu has already donated it."
Wen Nuan smiled: "How much did you donate? She's a shedding chicken!"
Nuan Nuan was quarreling, but in her heart she was thinking, what is there about Wen Yu that the Queen deserves to defend
Except for her painting skills, she is really useless at everything else!
Shedding chicken? !
Everyone's mouths twitched, they wanted to laugh but didn't dare.
Guo Mingyan: "Anyway, I have more than you! Not everyone is like your family, and they don't donate more even if they have money!"
As expected, this man disowns all his relatives!
Even my own sister has this attitude!
Nuan Nuan looked at Guo Mingyan with a hint of impatience in her eyes!
"The Guo family is one of the top aristocratic families in the capital. It has a deep foundation and is rich in gold and silver. However, it only donated two hundred thousand taels. How can we, an upstart on the way, donate less than one hundred thousand taels? Besides, didn't the queen say so? It's about fundraising. It’s your intention, you think it’s too little even a hundred thousand taels, Miss Guo, are you trying to kidnap everyone morally?”
Guo Mingyan's face changed: "What are you talking about? Our Guo family has no gold or silver!"
warmth:"… "
She was just a metaphor, her reaction...
Nuan Nuan's mind changed.
I'm afraid the Guo family may have another death penalty!
The eldest prince's concubine quickly smoothed things over: "The Shichanghou Mansion can grow healthy vegetables, which is no different than having mountains of gold and silver!"
Guo Mingyan nodded hurriedly: "That's right! Every day makes a lot of money, and the wealth is rolling in! And you still donate so little!"
Wu: "Our Shichanghou Mansion does have health-preserving vegetables, but the cost of growing health-preserving vegetables is extremely high! There is almost no money to be made! The ceramics workshop was newly opened not long ago, and it is not owned by our family. All the money earned is used for construction. There’s a new ceramics workshop, where’s the money?!”
Liang Ziyun smiled: "Not every family can donate hundreds of thousands taels. Donating something like this depends on the situation in your house. After all, you can't donate your entire wealth!"
Wen Xin: "The Guo family just made a bet with someone and lost hundreds of thousands of taels without blinking an eye. This is a huge wealth that has not yet begun! Miss Guo, didn't you only donate 200,000 taels?" , why do you say our government donates less?!”
Guo Mingyan: "......"
Several people were yelling at Guo Mingyan, leaving Guo Mingyan no chance to speak!
The queen was very depressed. She suddenly remembered the lotus appreciation banquet held last year.
Sure enough, Princess Hui'an shouldn't be invited. Once she is invited, it will be a disaster scene!
The queen quickly changed the subject: "This donation of money is just about your heart. Everyone should do what they can, as long as it comes to your heart."
The topic can no longer revolve around Princess Hui'an!
When everyone saw this, you looked at me, I looked at you, and then talked with the people around you.
"Mrs. Secretary of the Ministry of Hubu, how much do you donate?" Mrs. Shangshu of the Ministry of Etiquette asked in a low voice.
"I only brought ten thousand taels." Shangshu's face turned red and his voice was as low as a mosquito's cry.
Mrs. Shangshu of the Ministry of Etiquette: "Then you are better than me. I only brought..."
She held out five fingers.
Five thousand taels, she was embarrassed to say!
"I only brought three thousand taels!" Mrs. Lang, the servant of the Ministry of Industry, came over and said depressedly.
"How about we don't talk and just hand over the money?"
"How about we all donate the same amount?"
…
Here, these ladies were talking in low voices.
On the other end, Guo Mingyan was so angry that she whispered:
"These people are simply a bunch of shrews!"
She just said one thing, but these people said a lot to her!
Tan Shiwan was sitting next to Guo Mingyan, and she felt unhappy with Wen Xin!
Lin Tingxuan actually gave her so many things.
The family hasn't been separated yet. Those things belong to the Changping uncle's house. Why should they be given to her
After listening to Guo Mingyan's words, she said: "Country wild women, that's what savages are like! Whenever they make a noise, it's like a quarrel, turning a good banquet into a fair! There's no education at all! Don't be angry with them. No, it’s not worth it!”
There was a woman sitting next to Tan Shiwan. She kept her head lowered, as if she didn't even dare to raise her head.
Guo Mingyan's face looked better after hearing this: "No, pheasants know how to chirp! They don't have much money to donate, but they talk a lot!"
Wen Ran sat opposite them. Originally, Wen Ran had been paying attention to the girl who kept her head bowed. She had a good ear. After hearing what the two said, she looked at Tan Shiwan: "Our government does donate a small amount. I think this aunt will definitely donate." Even more than Aunt Guo!"
Tan Shiwan: "..."
Guo Mingyan: "..."
What the hell is aunt? !
The woman lowered her head and trembled slightly, as if she was laughing, but she immediately held it back.
There was a moment of silence!
Wen Ling had long been frightened by the smokeless battlefield and dared not speak. Now when she heard Wen Ran calling her aunt, she was so frightened that she covered Wen Ran's mouth.
"Sister Ran, how can they be considered aunts! Stop shouting!"
Wen Ran took her hand and nodded seriously: "Yes, not aunt! They look older than my mother, so they should be called aunt!"
"Auntie, how much do you donate?" Wen Ran looked at Tan Shiwan and asked seriously.
Wen Ling: "..."
"Pfft!" Wen Nuan laughed.
Everyone couldn't help laughing and quickly lowered their heads.
They also secretly glanced at Wu.
By the way, Wu’s skin is really good after giving birth to so many children!
It's just that she deliberately wears more mature clothes and dresses more maturely.
If she puts on girlish clothes, she might actually look younger than Guo Mingyan and Tan Shiwan!
After all, Guo Mingyan's skin color is darker, and Tan Shiwan's skin pores are larger, but they just apply more powder to cover them!
Guo Mingyan and Tan Shiwan were so angry that their faces turned black!
Wen Ran looked at everyone's reactions and said with a confused expression: "What's wrong?! What did I say wrong? Why are you bowing your heads? Hurry up and donate your money! This banquet is too boring!"
