Kapitel 257: Displeased

In the capital.

Xiao Yuanshi had received news from the northern border and a letter from Ge Chunyi.

When he knew that someone from the old Xiao family had stolen 30,000 taels of silver from the boxes containing books, his face darkened.

He was even more furious.

This time, it was not against the old Xiao family, but against Ge Chunru.

He thought that Ge Chunru had prepared at most a few thousand taels of silver for Ge Chunyi.

But she had prepared 30,000 taels of silver and valuable jade ornaments.

He called the butler over to ask.

Sure enough, Ge Chunru had sold a lot of porcelain and ancient paintings in their storeroom.

Together with some from her private room and a few thousand taels of silver from him, she had stuffed them all into Ge Chunyi's hands.

He did have a lot of savings, but those were stolen from the war, and the rest were gifts from others.
