Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Vesting her faith in the wisdom of the crowds, Yu Niaoniao looked at Chun Feng and Ye Yu hopefully, hoping that they could think of a good solution.
Chun Feng immediately said, “You can borrow money from His Highness. As long as you ask, His Highness will definitely be willing to lend it.”
Ye Yu nodded. “That’s right. You’re going to borrow money. You’ll pay it back when you have money in the future. This way, you don’t have to lose your dignity.”
Yu Niaoniao said, “That’s a good idea, but if Duke Lang asks me why I want to borrow money, how should I answer?”
This was exactly what Chun Feng and Ye Yu wanted to ask.
They asked in unison, “That’s right. What do you want so much money for?”
Yu Niaoniao said vaguely, “I’m going to do something big and need a lot of money, but I can’t let Duke Lang know for the time being.”
Ye Yu seemed to have thought of something and immediately understood.
“Don’t tell me you really have an actor outside?”
Chun Feng looked shocked.
The Princess Consort asked Duke Lang to borrow money to support an actor. If Duke Lang found out, wouldn’t he be angered to death?
So much for killing people!
Outside the door, Xiao Juan carried the freshly brewed medicine and was about to push open the door when he heard Chun Feng’s low cry.
He stopped involuntarily as his hand froze in midair.
Although eavesdropping was immoral, morality was no longer in his mind.
He just wanted to know how Niaoniao answered.
Had she really kept an actor outside?
Yu Niaoniao hurriedly denied it, “Nonsense! I don’t have an actor! Besides, with Duke Lang’s looks and figure, could the actors outside compare to him? I must be blind to throw Duke Lang away and go out to look for other men!” Ye Yu hurriedly knelt down. “I said something wrong. I deserve to die!”
With that, she slapped herself hard.
Yu Niaoniao said, “Alright, get up. Don’t say such things again.”
Ye Yu stood up. “I won’t dare to talk nonsense again.”
Chun Feng asked curiously, “Then why do you want so much money? Are you buying something expensive?”
Yu Niaoniao hesitated again and again. Thinking that there was no one else here, she felt there was no harm in revealing some inside information, so she said to them, “I’m telling you, don’t tell anyone else.”
Seeing the two of them nod vigorously to ensure that it would not leak out, Yu Niaoniao continued, “I actually wanted to prepare a surprise for Duke Lang.”
Chun Feng became even more curious. “What surprise?”
Yu Niaoniao refused to say anything else.
“It won’t be a surprise if I tell you everything.”
Although Chun Feng and Ye Yu were desperate to know the answer, they tactfully did not continue to ask.
Outside the door, Xiao Juan’s mood was like a roller coaster that had experienced huge ups and downs.
First, he was shocked and suspicious. Then he was pleasantly surprised. Then he was intensely curious.
He really wanted to know what the surprise was.
However. no matter what it was. as long as Niaoniao was still willing to snend
the effort to prepare a surprise for him, it meant that she had him in her heart.
As long as Niaoniao had him in her heart, it was more important than anything else!
In the room, Yu Niaoniao was still thinking about how to earn money.
Chun Feng quickly came up with another idea.
“Why don’t you sell something? You have so much jewelry. You can earn a lot by selling a few.”
Yu Niaoniao said, “Do you think I haven’t thought of this method? Every piece of jewelry I have has the mark of the Duke’s Mansion. Do you believe that if I take the jewelry into the pawnshop now, the pawnshop will expose this matter to Duke Lang in the next moment?”
Back then, she took Xiao Juan’s jade pendant to the pawnshop to sell for money. In the end, the shopkeeper of the pawnshop personally came looking for her the next day. Not only did he return the jade pendant to her, but he also made this matter known to everyone in the city.
It was enough to have learned such a lesson once. She didn’t want to do it again.
Ye Yu thought hard. “What do you have that can be sold for money but won’t be discovered to be from the Langjun Imperial Palace?”
Yu Niaoniao looked at the two of them and suddenly smiled evilly.
“Why don’t I sell you guys?”
The two of them immediately turned pale with fear and knelt down in front of her, crying and pleading.
“Princess Consort, please spare us. Don’t sell us!”
Yu Niaoniao only wanted to joke with them. She did not expect them to take it seriously and hurriedly called them up.
“No, no. I wouldn’t sell you guys even if I sold myself.”
At this point, Yu Niaoniao seemed to have found a way to make money. She stroked her chin thoughtfully.
“That’s right. I can sell myself.”
Chun Feng and Ye Yu even forgot to cry and looked at her in a daze.
What did the Princess Consort say? Was she going to sell herself?
Was she crazy from poverty?
Yu Niaoniao cleared her throat and began to talk nonsense in all seriousness.
“I’ve already thought of the auction proposal. Listen. I’m female and 80% new.
I’m in my prime.”
“The procedures are complete. And I’m not injured at all. There is no need to top up money.”
“I will only need a catty of rice and two taels of meat to move a hundred miles.
I’m especially capable!”
“I could pick the soil in the fields, chop firewood in the mountains, cook, and do laundry.”
“If I have money, I would spend it. If I don’t, I would stay at home.”
“You can bring me out. Whether you can bring me back depends on your ability.
Interested parties are welcome to consult!”
Xiao Juan, who was eavesdropping outside the door was speechless.
She had even thought of the pitch. She really planned to sell herself!
Chun Feng and Ye Yu were dumbfounded.
They never expected the Princess Consort to think of this. Yu Niaoniao asked, “How much do you think I can sell myself for?”
Chun Feng spoke with difficulty. “You’re joking, right?”
Yu Niaoniao sighed. “I want to joke, but my purse doesn’t allow it. If I don’t sell myself, what else can I sell?” Ye Yu hurriedly said, “Can’t you sell paintings?”
Yu Niaoniao waved her two claws.
Seeing her round hands wrapped in gauze, Ye Yu was immediately speechless.
Chun Feng had an idea. “You can still sell recipes! Don’t you usually think about all kinds of delicious food? Those delicacies can’t be bought outside even if you have money. If you’re willing to sell them, all the restaurants will definitely fight to buy them. ”
Yu Niaoniao’s eyes immediately lit up.
“That’s a good idea!”
It was much faster to earn money by selling recipes than by selling books. It was the best for emergencies.
Chun Feng continued, “Actually, if you can open your own restaurant, you’ll definitely earn more money.”
Yu Niaoniao looked at her faintly.
“If I could afford a restaurant, would I need to think of a way to raise money?” Chun Feng was speechless.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door and Xiao Juan’s voice came in.
“Niaoniao, can I come in?”
Yu Niaoniao immediately glanced at Chun Feng and Ye Yu, indicating for them to shut their mouths and not talk nonsense.
“Come in.”
The door was pushed open and Xiao Juan walked in with the medicine. Chun Feng and Ye Yu bowed to him. Seeing that he ignored them, they tactfully retreated..
