  While Zhang Shilang greeted her warmly, he was also secretly observing Xin You, and seeing her calm, he had a better impression.

   "I heard from them that Ms. Kou wants to donate 50,000 taels of silver to the disaster area?" The reason why Zhang Shilang came here was to confirm for himself.

   It’s not that he couldn’t hold his breath, it’s that Miss Kou donated too much.

  Xin You nodded.

  Subconsciously, Zhang Shilang wanted to ask the Shaoqing Mansion if he knew about it, but he glanced at the box of bank notes from the corner of his eye, and closed his mouth in time.

   It's none of his business whether Duan Shaoqing knows, anyway, the money is already here.

   "Miss Kou is really benevolent and righteous. Zhang thanked the people of Dingbei." Zhang Shilang cupped his hands.

  Xin You blesses her body: "Master Zhang has beaten a common girl."

   "No, Zhang really thinks Miss Kou deserves it." Zhang Shilang said seriously.

  Xin You looked at his expression and developed a good impression of Zhang Shilang.

   Zhang Shilang is like this, at least it shows that he takes the suffering of the people to heart, and the weight may not be very heavy, but as long as there is, it is much better than many officials.

  In this way, she can feel more at ease about the donated money.

   "His Royal Highness Xiuwang held a banquet in the lotus garden at noon on the 28th, to entertain the good people who care about the disaster victims in Dingbei." Zhang Shilang handed over the post, without saying "I hope Miss Kou will appreciate you".

  This can be said at any banquet, except for the emperor's banquet. The emperor treats guests, and all the knives in the sky have to go.

  Xin You took the post with both hands: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang. If Mr. Zhang has nothing else to do, Minnv will leave first."

   "Miss Kou, go slowly." Zhang Shilang personally sent Xin You out, and when he turned around, he saw Yan Chao.

   Zhang Shilang tried his best to maintain a serious expression, which almost didn't stop.

   When did Jin Linwei come?

   "Master Zhang." Yan Chao saluted and left.

   Zhang Shilang glared at his subordinate: "When did that Jinlin Guard come in? Why didn't you remind me?"

  He didn't say anything inappropriate to Miss Kou just now, did he?

  The subordinate who was asked was speechless: "My lord, that deputy Qianhu of the Jinlin Guard came earlier than Miss Kou."

   "Really?" Zhang Shilang thought for a while, but still had no impression, and the topic returned to Miss Kou, "Cough, Miss Kou is as grand as the rumors say, neither humble nor overbearing."

  The corner of the subordinate's mouth twitched slightly.

  If he can donate 50,000 taels of silver lightly, he can be neither humble nor overbearing.

  Yan Chao returned to Jinlinwei and reported to He Qingxiao about meeting Miss Kou.

   "How much money did Miss Kou donate?"

  Yan Chao looked at He Qingxiao with complicated eyes.

  Adult, are you sure you want to know?

  He Qingxiao slightly raised his eyebrows.

  Yan Chao lowered his eyes, and couldn't bear to see his lord's reaction after hearing this: "Return to your lord, Miss Kou donated fifty thousand taels."

   Fifty thousand taels.

  He Qingxiao was not surprised, and said lightly: "Thanks for your hard work."

  Yan Chao looked up in astonishment.

  Are you too calm, sir?

   Didn't it mean that Ms. Kou donated a lot and others should be embarrassed, but adults are different... don't you feel inferior because of your poverty?

  Maybe he misunderstood, the adults do not like Miss Kou.

  Yan Chao thought about it, and asked: "My lord, do you want to pay attention to the Qingsong Bookstore in the past two days? The news of Miss Kou's donation of 50,000 taels of silver will probably attract Xiao Xiao to covet it."

"Donating money to the Dingbei disaster area is a matter of concern today. If anyone is robbed by Xiao Xiao for donating money, the emperor will be furious and will investigate thoroughly. At that time, it will be light to kill the whole family. Generally, Xiao Xiao will not take this risk .” He Qingxiao analyzed rationally.

  Yan Chao nodded repeatedly.

  My lord is right, Xiaoxiao is not a fool, there are so many rich people, robbing anyone is not robbing, and it is not worthwhile to rob Miss Kou at the risk of killing everyone.

  He Qingxiao's tone changed: "But I still send someone to pay attention."

  Yan Chao: "..." My lord always lets him know that he is wrong when he thinks that he has no intentions about Miss Kou.

  As expected by He Qingxiao, the officials in charge of donations did not intend to hide it for Miss Kou, and even secretly contributed to the flames, so as to attract more people to donate enthusiastically. The news that Ms. Kou donated 50,000 taels of silver to the disaster victims in Dingbei spread throughout the streets and alleys.

  After Duan Shaoqing heard about it, he almost spit out a mouthful of old blood, and couldn't resist going to Qingsong Bookstore to find Xinyou.

   "Uncle is here." There were many people in the study hall, and Xin You greeted Duan Shaoqing politely.

  Feeling many eyes, Duan Shaoqing hurriedly said: "Uncle has something to do with you, go to a convenient place to talk."

   "Uncle, please follow me." Xin You led Duan Shaoqing into the reception room.

The chair in the reception room was covered with thick fur cushions, and it was soft and warm to sit on. While Duan Shaoqing felt comfortable, he secretly hated: Look at this girl's extravagance and spending money all over the sky. She was defeated.

  One donation is 50,000 taels, how dare she!

  Wait for Xiao Lian to bring the tea and leave, Xin You asked lightly, "What do you want me to do, Uncle?"

  You don’t need to ask to know, it must be because of the donation of 50,000 taels.

   Sure enough, Duan Shaoqing mentioned it: "Qingqing, I heard that you donated 50,000 taels?"

"yes."

   "Uncle knows that you have a kind heart, but you have to think carefully about everything and don't be impulsive."

  Xin You looked puzzled: "I wasn't impulsive. I didn't move when I first heard about donating money for the disaster area in Dingbei. After observing for a few days, I found out that it was indeed for the relief of the disaster area, so I donated money."

   "It's a good thing to donate money to the disaster victims, but this amount...isn't it too much?"

   "Too much?" Xin You thought about it carefully, "Not counting the store, I have more than 400,000 taels of silver in my hand, and I don't think it's too much to donate only 50,000 taels."

  Duan Shaoqing's face turned black: "Qingqing, these properties are the accumulation of your grandfather and father. Are you worthy of your ancestors by ruining all your property?"

  Xin You's face sank: "Is uncle caring too much? I am the only blood of the Kou family. How to use the money is my own business."

   "What did you say?" Duan Shaoqing didn't expect his niece to speak so badly.

"I said uncle don't meddle in business. You can use my money as you like, and you don't care." Xinyou served tea and smiled casually, "Or should I wait for His Royal Highness Xiuwang or others to ask me at the lotus garden banquet?" From now on, uncle wants to hear that I was scolded by uncle for donating too much?"

   "You!" Duan Shaoqing was taken aback by these words, and walked out with a livid face and flicked his sleeves.

  Xin You followed and reminded softly: "There are a lot of people in the study hall, uncle should be happier."

  Duan Shaoqing clenched his fists hard and walked out of the reception room with a forced smile on his face.

  Xin You changed her coldness in the waiting room, and sweetly called her uncle.

  Duan Shaoqing froze, looking sideways at the smiling girl.

  Xin You grabbed his sleeve: "Uncle, Qingqing knows that you are as kind-hearted as my mother, but after all, you have a big family to support, so don't donate so much like me."

  Duan Shaoqing tried his best to control his expression so that he didn't lose his composure, and said with a difficult smile: "Uncle knows that you love your relatives, but the disaster in Dingbei is so severe, uncle should do his part as an official of the court."

  He didn't dare to stay any longer, and hurried out.

  Xin You sighed, and showed a proud expression to everyone in the library: "I just persuaded you for a long time, but uncle insisted on donating more..."
