Qian Jiujiu was apprehensive in her heart, but Mu Yexiao merely looked at Qian Jiujiu, and nodded in the end, "Alright, how much do you want?"
Qian Jiujiu still did not know about the currency here. She could not help but look at Hong Ling: "Hong Ling, how much monthly money do you have?"Hong Ling froze for a moment. Although she didn"t understand, she still said it quickly.
"Reporting to w.a.n.gfei, this servant"s monthly money is 5 taels, because this servant is now your head maid."
Qian Jiujiu acknowledged, then blinked her eyes and began to calculate the currency situation in her mind.
A maid from an imperial concubine that was only worth 5 taels per month, seems like the items weren"t expensive at all. She smiled towards Mu Yexiao."I want five hundred silver."
Mu Yexiao was drinking tea, almost choking on his saliva. He had originally thought that Qian Jiujiu would only ask for fifty silver. After all, Hong Ling doesn"t even cost 100 taels of silver a year.If Qian Jiujiu were to calculate from this point, she would not ask for five hundred silver.
Although five hundred silver was nothing to him, but to an inner chamber girl like Qian Jiujiu, a girl who had grown up in a villa, it was definitely a huge sum of money."Mu Yexiao, you can"t possibly not have one, right? For a dignified Xiao Prince to be so poor? "
Mu Yexiao had not spoken since the beginning, but at this point, he was shocked. He looked at Mu Yexiao and could not help but blurt out these words.
However, Mu Yexiao directly rolled his eyes at him. "Dong Chen, give it to the w.a.n.gfei."Dong Chen was startled, and immediately gave it to him. He could not help but be puzzled: "Yes, Your Highness."
Having obtained permission, Qian Jiujiu stood up immediately and walked to the front of Dong Chen, stretched out her hand, and looked at him.
"Give it to me."
Dong Chen took out some silver from his bosom before turning around to pull Hong Ling away. "Come, let"s go shopping."
Looking at Qian Jiujiu"s back, Dong Chen looked at the Duke with a puzzled expression: "My prince, aren"t you showing too much tolerance for her?"
Mu Yexiao gave a bland glance at Dong Chen: "Send someone to protect her."
Dong Chen was furious, he actually still wanted to send someone to protect her, but he still followed the orders of the prince.
However, Qian Jiujiu did not know about this at all. She pulled Hong Ling back to the room: "Hong Ling, find me a set of clothes for me to wear as a servant girl."
Hong Ling was a bit confused. "Princess, what do you want the young maid"s clothes for? "With the permission of the prince, you can swagger out."
Qian Jiujiu rolled his eyes, "You were foolish on that night. The palace has an imperial decree; I can only serve the prince in the Duke Palace, how can I get out?"
"If you want to go out, of course I"ll have to disguise myself."
Although Hong Ling was suspicious, she still quickly found a set of clothes for the young maid to wear. Qian Jiujiu quickly changed into them and walked around.
"Not bad. Hong Ling, you can call me Xiao Jiu from now on. I"m the maid of the princess consort, Xiao Jiu. I"m going out to buy some things for the princess consort."Hong Ling looked at Qian Jiujiu"s confused expression and found it funny. This w.a.n.gfei seemed to be completely different from those other young misses.
The two of them smoothly exited the Duke Palace. Qian Jiujiu looked at the bustling streets and took a deep breath, "I smell freedom."Hong Ling was shocked. She subconsciously thought that the w.a.n.gfei was about to escape, but Qian Jiujiu quickly turned her head to look at her.
"Lead the way, we"re going to the pharmacy, I"m going to buy something."
Hong Ling very quickly brought Qian Jiujiu into the pharmacy, and after Qian Jiujiu entered, she began to size him up: "Call your shopkeeper out."
