Haifeng followed to the south this ti, although he didn’t earn military rits, he helped Yang Ye and Yang Hao with many matters. Both Yang Ye and Yang Hao valued him highly. Now that he chose to join the military camp, Qiao Xiaomai reported it to Yang Wenxiao, who felt it was a pity.
But for such matters, willingness is most important. Currently, there is no grand general in the army, so cultivating Haifeng into a grand general would also be good.
Yang Wenxiao approved the destination for the guard team mbers. Qiao Xiaomai personally cooked a banquet to see them off, marking the disbandnt of the guard team.
She also gave each of them twenty thousand taels as settlent funds. If there’s a need in the future, she would lend a helping hand.
With the guard team’s matters resolved, Yang Ye brought Bei Lingsu to the residence as guests. Their wedding date was set for mid-February. Now, the two of them are busy every day. A prince’s marriage is no small matter, and they want to handle every arrangent personally, so they’ve beco like spinning tops.
"I’m here to buy Floral Dew from you. At that ti, we won’t be drinking alcohol at the banquet, just Floral Dew," Yang Ye said cheerfully.
Ever since Bei Lingsu agreed to his proposal, he’s been in a state of silly happiness, smiling at everyone he sees.
"Alright," Qiao Xiaomai nodded, "I’ll take care of the wedding banquet."
"No need, just make the Floral Dew. After all, those dishes are just going into other people’s mouths, you should take a break," Bei Lingsu chid in.
"No worries, this is my expertise. Your once-in-a-lifeti wedding should be handled by ," Qiao Xiaomai insisted.
"Then we’ll pay you in silver," Yang Ye said. "I heard you gave the guard team twenty thousand taels each? Wow, that adds up to four million taels, quite wealthy."
"Didn’t we profit from the war? There’s money," Qiao Xiaomai replied.
With the wealth of the Three Kingdoms as support, she’s not only cleared all her debts but also has plenty of spare money. With extra money, she’s inclined to spend it.
"Daqi still has many places that need money," Yang Ye said. "Grandpa Emperor has always wanted to implent an old-age policy, decreeing that the Court distributes grain monthly to people over a certain age. Once the bluestone road and canal are completed, this policy should be launched."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai blinked, "Isn’t that sothing for the Court to handle?"
What does it have to do with her?
Previously, with debts, the money she earned belonged to the Court. Now that her debts are cleared, the money she earns in the future will be her own.
"Your mother has always been helping the poor, haven’t you done so support?" Yang Ye asked.
"That wouldn’t require much silver," Qiao Xiaomai said, unable to help but purse her lips. In the future, it seems that donating will be the only way left to do good deeds...
She’s already tried every good deed that benefits the country and the people she could think of, just short of cotton. Once she finds cotton, there won’t be any more major good deeds left to do.
She’ll just have to donate.
Donating requires silver.
The treasure in her space remains untouched, who knows when it will see the light of day...
After seeing off Yang Ye and Bei Lingsu, Qiao Xiaomai got up to go to the kitchen. Now, she was responsible for Yang Wenxiao’s three als, so she couldn’t stay away from the kitchen.
After making lunch, Tong Sanlang returned. Today he went with Tong Tiehu to Jiguiju to et Yu Ang. Currently, the Yu Family and the Tong Family still haven’t publicly recognized each other, so they could only make contact in secret like this.
"Qiao ipan gave birth to a son. Recently, she’s been trying to beco the main wife, even using your relationship, saying you’re Princess Anping, and that she’s the princess’s aunt. So her status should rise, and she can’t be just a concubine." At the dinner table, Tong Sanlang talked about Qiao ipan’s recent situation.
