Chapter 711 Adopted daughter
Soon, the mother-in-law came back and said that Mrs. Wang got the invitation card, bought jewelry in Fengxianlou, and made an appointment to pick it up at noon today.
Then Mrs. Fang ordered to prepare the car and went out. When she arrived at Fengxian Building, she asked the shopkeeper and learned that Mrs. Wang had not paid the money. If she has anything to say, tell me to see her."
Fengxian Tower is the property of the Wang family, and the shopkeeper must listen to the words of this favored wife. Sure enough, when Mrs. Wang came to pick up the jewellery, the total amount was more than one hundred taels of silver. When it was time to pay the silver, the shopkeeper laughed and said, "What a coincidence, it happened that my wife came today. I heard that it was the jewellery, Madam, you made it. I took out my pocket and paid for it for you."
Yang Yiqing is a native of Gaozhou Prefecture, Guangdong. He lost his father when he was young. He was known as a child prodigy.
Yang Yiqing was elected as the school inspector in Shaanxi three years ago, and he supervised the construction of Yanshan Academy in Jingzhao Prefecture at the beginning of his tenure, which is very famous among scholars in Shaanxi.
Having been an official for many years, Yang Yiqing is still living in poverty and has little money left. But this time, the county chief has left Jingzhao Mansion, and he has sent posts to all the families, naturally Yang's is indispensable.
Ms. Wang originally didn't plan to order any jewelry or make new clothes, but she heard some wives talking about it before, saying that during the three years of the princess's three years in Jingzhao Mansion, every time she went out, the clothes and jewelry she wore were different.
Mrs. Han said that the aristocratic family and the dignitaries in the capital have such a rule. It is said that the same piece of jewelry should not be worn twice in front of the same person within five years.
Wang thinks that she has worn the same clothes and jewelry for more than ten years, and suddenly, embarrassment and embarrassment are like a spring, which makes her feel ashamed.
She finally made up her mind to come to Fengxianlou, the largest silver building in Jingzhao Mansion, and ordered a set of jewelry. Some parts she didn't like were slightly repaired, and she spent more than one hundred taels of silver, which made her very happy.
But on the way back from the silver building, she regretted it. She would have to save the more than one hundred taels of silver for a full year to save it.
Now that someone wants to pay for her, Wang's heart is struggling. Reason tells her that she shouldn't accept it, but the embarrassment that consumption is not proportional to strength makes her unable to be indifferent.
"What's the matter?" Mrs. Wang declined, but her words were not so resolute. The shopkeeper is such a smart person, and said with a smile, "I can't interfere with these things. My wife hasn't left yet. You two have a discussion on your own." .”
Wang said, "Then take me to meet your wife."
Ms. Wang had forgotten that Mrs. Fang was just a concubine, but she was a concubine from the fourth grade. For more than one hundred taels of silver, she actually wanted to meet a concubine in person.
The shopkeeper hurriedly said, "This is not right, ma'am, please wait here for a while, my little one, let my wife come to see you!"
Soon, Mrs. Fang came, first saluted Mrs. Wang respectfully, and after Mrs. Wang offered her seat, she also respectfully sat half of her buttocks on the stool. The two exchanged a few words, Mrs. Wang insisted on letting her The mother-in-law took out the silver bill and gave it to Fang.
Mrs. Wang is Yang Yiqing's wretched wife. She had endured hardships with Yang Yiqing and supported her husband with her mother-in-law. When she heard such words, she was not excited, she was at a loss, "I'm really sorry, my master has repeatedly Tell me not to take money from others."
Fang said with a smile, "What kind of money is this? It's just jewelry. It can't be eaten or drunk. It's just used as a front. If the wife insists on refusing it, otherwise, we will lend this jewelry to the wife for a day and wait for tomorrow The flower party is over, and my wife will return it later."
Wang Shi was overjoyed, this is really a good idea, and hurriedly said, "How about this?"
"Why not?" Fang's eyes rolled, "If the wife is upset, please ask the wife to do me a favor. The wife has no daughter under her knees, and the concubine has a daughter under her knees. If you can accompany the wife tomorrow, follow Going to see the world, the matter of borrowing jewelry, my wife just doesn't have to worry about it."
When Mrs. Wang heard this, she thought to herself, one more person or one less person is just a matter of adding one or two bowls and chopsticks to the banquet of the princess. Who can really eat there? They agreed immediately, and the two made an appointment to have someone from the Wang family bring Wang Lilan over after the hour of tomorrow.
Ms. Fang happened to be bringing Wang Lilan here. She asked someone to bring Wang Lilan over, kowtowed to Mrs. Wang, and said with a smile, "If it's hard for Mrs. Wang to say tomorrow, let's just say that this concubine's daughter is Mrs. Wang's goddaughter."
Wang Shi didn't know what this righteous daughter meant. She thought to herself, this is someone trying to curry favor with her.
When Chun'er saw Fang's car on the street, she panicked and ran into Bai Ling who came out of a pharmacy. She hurriedly lowered her head to apologize, and Bai Ling tilted her head and glanced at her profile, " Aren't you Chun'er, the girl of the Wang family?"
Otherwise, how can Bai Ling just ask questions? She also has a skill, that is, she can never forget anyone.
Xie Zhiwei once joked that if Bailing's skills were used in reading, he would be a champion.
When Chun'er saw Bailing, she was overjoyed. She dragged Bailing into a narrow alley, peeped outside, and made sure that Fang's driver could not see her, so she said to Bailing, "Sister, I just don't know how to find the county's wife. As for the sister next to the Lord, I didn't expect to bump into my sister, it's because the Buddha is helping me!"
Bai Ling didn't understand, so he asked, "What's wrong? Is your girl unable to attend the flower party of my princess tomorrow?"
Chun'er nodded, "My girl caught a cold after returning home yesterday, and her condition got worse today, so she won't be able to participate tomorrow no matter what."
Bailing saw that there was no trace of worry in Chun'er's eyes, so he smiled and said, "You are teasing me, aren't you?"
Chun'er was taken aback, and Bai Ling knew that she had guessed right. She imitated Xie Zhiwei's appearance when she was thinking, squinted her eyes, pursed her lips, stared at Chun'er for a while, and said, "If you don't tell the truth, you know , what crime is this?"
Chun'er was so frightened that her legs went limp, and she wished she could kneel down, "My girl really doesn't dare to lie to the princess, but my girl has failed the princess' love, so she feels ashamed and has to say that."
