Madam Hui and Chu Juan were stunned when they heard this.
Although in their eyes, a betrothal gift of two hundred thousand taels was not much. When Madam Hui married Prince Huai, he had given over a million taels, even though Madam Hui had brought even more with her as dowry.
But they were currently captives, in a sense, still under duress. Chen Mo could have given nothing at all, but now he was indeed mentioning two hundred thousand taels as a betrothal gift.
"Could it be that he really has feelings for Juan'Er..." Previously, Madam Hui had always thought that Chen Mo was simply lusting after Chu Juan's body.
But maybe it's a good thing, let Juan'Er whisper more sweet nothings to him, so I won't have to worry about when Xiao Yunxi and Chu Zheng being released.
"Thank you, Marquis." Madam Hui said, also casting a glance at Chu Juan, signaling her.
"Thank you... for your kindness, Marquis." Chu Juan said, suppressing her inner shyness and unease.
