When Tang Cheng heard that Master Yi was not eating and drinking for free and was going to pay for her tea, she not only did not show any joy, but looked at Master Yi with suspicion.
"You are penniless, where do you get the money to pay for the tea?"
Master Yi was caught off guard by Tang Cheng's unexpected move. Fourth Miss Tang was well-known for her love of money. He even paid for her tea, but Fourth Miss Tang did not even smile. Master Yi was shocked.
Fortunately, he was able to keep his composure, and Master Yi made up a plausible excuse: "I pawned the jade pendant I was wearing."
If Fourth Miss Tang pressed the issue, he had already prepared an answer.
Unexpectedly, Tang Cheng said "oh", and after making sure that he could afford to pay, he called the waiter and excitedly ordered a lot of tea and snacks.
Master Yi: “…”
He was in such a miserable state, but Fourth Miss Tang had no sympathy at all and ordered a lot of things without any hesitation.
Master Yi felt great pain in his heart.
This time he is really going to bleed a lot. As a stingy person who only earns and never spends, Master Yi will feel pain for this little money even if he has a fortune.
"Ms. Fourth Tang, can you finish all the food you ordered?"
Tang Cheng smiled secretly at Master Yi who was forcing himself to smile, but on the surface he touched his abdomen with his hand and said innocently, "My situation is special now, I don't eat outside food. These are ordered for Zhenzhu and the others. Zhenzhu, come and thank Master Yi for his generosity."
Master Yi vomited blood.
Zhenzhu and the others secretly laughed at the scene and watched the show quietly on the side. With the example of their son-in-law Zhuyu in front of them, Master Yi, who was a miser who pretended to be generous, did not pose any threat at all.
They all said in unison: "Thank you, Master Yi!"
"Waiter, how much is the total amount for the tea and snacks I just ordered?" Tang Cheng asked the waiter with a smile.
The waiter took out a small abacus, calculated it, and replied, "Miss Tang Si, the tea and snacks you just ordered cost a total of 324 taels and 8 qian of silver. I will remove the remaining 8 qian for you, so you only need to pay 324 taels of silver."
boom!
Master Yi was struck by lightning.
Three... three hundred and twenty forty taels!
Oh my god, why are there so many
Are you sure you calculated it correctly
Tang Cheng looked at Master Yi's shocked expression and confirmed with a smile: "Master Yi, do you have enough money to pay for the tea?"
Master Yi felt as if his flesh was being cut, and gritted his teeth and said, "Enough!"
For one thousand taels of gold, he fought hard!
"It seems that the jade pendant pawned by Master Yi is very valuable."
Tang Cheng raised his eyebrows, thinking that this Young Master Yi was obviously so heartbroken that he was bleeding but he was trying to hold on. He was really trying to save face but ended up suffering.
She wouldn't do such a stupid thing.
Master Yi nodded in agreement and took the opportunity to express his sympathy.
"Yes, if it weren't for this jade pendant, I would have to sleep on the streets."
Tang Cheng: “…”
"Mr. Yi, are you married?"
Tang Cheng asked suddenly, and Master Yi's eyes lit up. Could it be that the Fourth Miss Tang...
Master Yi imagined many wonderful things, as if he saw five hundred taels of gold flying into his pocket, but a reserved smile appeared on his handsome face: "No, I would rather be without than be with someone who is not good enough. I only wish to have the heart of one person and stay together till old age. I have never had a concubine or maid in the backyard."
He did not lie. He indeed had no concubines in his backyard. Master Yi was reluctant to spend money to keep concubines. He was away from home all year round, and who knew who would benefit from it in the end. Master Yi did not want to be a cuckold.
Anyway, he is a romantic by nature. Relying on his extremely handsome face and elegant temperament, he has had affairs with countless women.
I'd rather not want money or status.
Mr. Yi enjoys this kind of life very much.
This Master Yi is also a weirdo, he comes from a prominent family but he is like the reincarnation of a Pixiu, once something is in his mouth, don't even think about him spitting it out. He likes freedom by nature, loves to travel around, spends a lot and enjoys himself, but he is very generous when it comes to spending money on himself, but he is a miser to others, no matter how beautiful they are.
The reason why Master Yi stayed in the capital was because it was too lively. Gossip about the Fourth Miss Tang was flying everywhere, and she loved money like her life. Master Yi was shocked.
I didn't expect that Miss Tang Si was also a fellow traveler.
However, the cost of living in the capital was a bit high, so Master Yi used the pseudonym Master Yi and registered in a brothel run by a friend to take orders and earn money. Of course, he was not interested in men, so he only took orders from women.
Not long after the listing was put up, a woman wearing a black gauze hat to cover her face came and was extremely generous. She paid him one thousand taels of gold to seduce the fourth young lady Tang. She paid a deposit of five hundred taels of gold alone, and this deposit would not be refunded regardless of whether the task was completed or not.
Very wealthy.
Master Yi accepted it immediately. It was rare to see such a wealthy woman, and Master Yi was very excited. He followed the woman secretly and was quite surprised to find that she was the seventh prince's fiancée, Miss Liu from the Jian'an Earl's Mansion.
Very shocked.
This woman's jealousy is terrible!
Mr. Yi's excitement disappeared in an instant.
Tang Cheng smiled and said, "I didn't expect that Master Yi is such a loyal and good man."
But in my heart I was complaining about Master Yi's ability to lie without blinking, his affectionate eyes, and some of his unintentional seductive movements that revealed that Master Yi was a playboy.
Why are you pretending to be a pure and innocent nobleman
With Wen Huaian as an example, Master Yi is not even close to being good enough.
Tang Cheng began to miss Wen Huaian.
Master Yi smiled slightly, his eyes piercing at Tang Cheng's beautiful face, which was full of charm, and his deep voice was filled with affection: "Ms. Tang Si is the ideal candidate for my wife. I wish we had met before I got married."
I regret not meeting you before I got married...
This is simply a confession.
As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of everyone in the room were directed at Master Yi like sharp swords.
This person actually tried to steal the prince's girl right in front of them.
How audacious!
Who gave you the courage
If Master Yi knew what they were thinking, he would probably say that money gives courage!
Tang Cheng lowered her head to glance at Dabao who was quietly and well-behaved in her arms, and then looked at Master Yi's affectionate eyes. She felt very happy. She didn't expect that she was still so charming even after getting married and having children.
Tang Cheng raised the corner of his mouth.
"Master Yi has seen countless men, so he has a very good eye. Of course, I have a good eye too. Even if I hadn't married, Master Yi wouldn't have appeared on my list of potential husbands. It's not reasonable to eat a palace banquet and settle for light porridge and side dishes, Master Yi, don't you agree?"
Wen Huaian raised Tang Cheng's standards. In her eyes, a man like Master Yi was no different from plain porridge and side dishes.
Pearl and the others almost laughed out loud.
The young lady not only praised herself but also stepped on Mr. Yi.
Master Yi's expression instantly froze, his eyes full of disbelief!
He was born in a prominent family, was handsome, and had countless women who admired him...
I didn't expect that in the eyes of Miss Tang Si, I was just a side dish.
He obviously deliberately made himself look three-quarters similar to Prince Wen...
Master Yi was devastated.
It turns out that one thousand taels of gold is not so easy to earn.
If I had known earlier, I would have made it 90% similar.
Master Yi regretted deeply.
Damn self-esteem is not as important as money!
Standing at the door of the wing room, Marquis Nanyang's eyes were full of smiles. He stroked his chin. Should he go in or out
In the end, Marquis Nanyang went in anyway. The guards responsible for protecting Tang Cheng had already known about it the moment Marquis Nanyang entered the teahouse. After Marquis Nanyang made a gesture, they did not inform Tang Cheng.
So Marquis Nanyang listened to the entire conversation between Tang Cheng and Master Yi.
This Mr. Yi needs to be investigated thoroughly!
"Dad, what a coincidence, you also come to the teahouse to listen to stories." Tang Cheng was delighted when he saw the figure of his father, the Marquis.
Marquis of Nanyang!
Master Yi's body stiffened for a moment, and he became nervous instantly. He didn't know how much Nanyang Hou had heard. Nanyang Hou was not Miss Tang Si...
