CH 36.4

Ji Yunxi looked at Wu Weian.

The other party’s expression was quite unpredictable, as if he was no stranger to this Fifth Prince, and there was even a somewhat very strange mood.

Ji Yunxi lowered her eyelashes, picked up the tea cup and sipped, then asked: “Why?”

“Nothing.” Wu Wei’an chuckled. “It’s just that, before I came to the capital, I had probably known how things stand. I am quite optimistic about this Fifth Prince.”

Ji Yunxi understood what he meant: “Did you originally intend to take refuge under him?”

Wu Wei’an didn’t say yes, but he didn’t say no either: “I originally just wanted to come to the capital in person to understand the situation first before making any plans. But I had just been in the capital for a few days and didn’t you already come to my door?”

Now, he has been firmly tied to the Ji family’s boat. That is, a member of the Crown Prince’s party.

That Fifth Prince is only doomed to be mortal enemy now.

Ji Yunxi reminded him: “The Fifth Prince is not easy. Since he has investigated you, he must be suspicious of you. Do you have any countermeasures?”

Wu Wei’an looked at Ji Yunxi with a solemn face: “To be honest, it’s a little difficult. I may need your help in this matter, Yun Niang.”

Ji Yunxi frowned: “Just say it.”

Wu Wei’an: “I just entered the Imperial Academy and I need to manage every aspects of it, but I am just short of money.”

Ji Yunxi: “……”

Ji Yunxi closed her eyes.

Just now, she really thought that Wu Wei’an was in trouble, and she really wanted to help.

As a result, he actually just wanted to ask her for money??

Ji Yunxi is not stingy. On the contrary, as a client, she is very generous.

If Wu Wei’an is normal, and won’t do blind play in front of her all day long, it’s fine for her to give him even tens of thousands of taels. After all, they will be a family in the future.

But now, Ji Yunxi doesn’t want to give him too much anyway. She even feels somewhat not willing to give anything at all to him right now.

Her face was very cold, and her tone was even colder: “If it’s so, you can make a list of who you want to manage, what you want to manage, and how much money you need. Give it to me after you list it, and I will give you the money.”

Wu Wei’an: “??”

The expression of being hurt and unbelievable was shown on his face: “Between you and me, is there still the need for this?”

Ji Yunxi said mercilessly: “If necessary, even biological brothers and sisters have to settle accounts clearly too. So does husband and wife.”

Wu Wei’an looked at his fiancee and sighed, and then sighed again.

But what can he do anyway?

He can’t do anything.

He has no money, and having no money is the original sin.

In the end, Wu Wei’an could only take the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone that Ji Yunxi had just used, and began to make a detailed list one by one.

When the carriage stopped at Xuanren Lane, Wu Wei’an had also finished writing. He checked it again and made sure there’s no problem with it before handing it over to Ji Yunxi.

Ji Yunxi took it and quickly glanced at it a few times. When they got out of the carriage, she ordered Baofu to give Wu Wei’an three hundred taels of silver.

Baofu really cannot bear the sight of this future husband of their Miss because he always showed his poor and pedantic face, and he even took their Miss’ mirror.

But their Miss likes it, and she can’t help it. So she still took out three hundred taels of silver and gave it to Wu Wei’an, but she didn’t show a good face either. Her chin was raised high and there was also a very contemptuous look in her eyes.

Wu Wei’an did not mind at all. He accepted the three hundred taels of silver swiftly and smoothly, and then took Ji Yunxi to see the new house.

After the round-faced housekeeper’s picky choosing everywhere, there are only three places left in the end.

The three places are very close to the Ji Mansion, all within one kilometer.

The Ji family lives in Xuanren Lane, which is not far from the palace. Most of the people living nearby are also dignitaries, so the price is not cheap.

And most of the time, even if one has the money, one may not be able to buy it too.

After all, this is the house in Xuanren Lane. Most of the house owners there are not short of money. Even if the houses are left empty, they may not sell it too.
