Chapter 371: Currying Favor (18)

Ding scolded, "It's okay to be hairy, it's okay to burn the maids in the mansion, and the maids of the cousin girl are burned and sent back to Jingningbo Mansion, don't you laugh at the maids in my Hou Mansion who can't even hold tea!"

The maid admitted her mistake again and again, and the hot maid could only swallow her anger.

Minglan looked at her and asked, "Are there any burns?"

"The slave is fine, the tea is warm, but the clothes are dirty," the maid brushed off the tea leaves on her body.

The maid said, "Fang is my fault, I have a new dress, and I haven't put it on yet, so I can't compensate you." ”

The maid glanced at Minglan, she would definitely not be able to follow her cousin like this.

After the maid left, Minglan stepped forward to greet Ding, and she said with a calm face, "What do you want your cousin to give you an explanation? Your uncle is busy with official business, and he bothers him with a trivial matter, wouldn't he want to tire him to death." ”

Minglan nodded, "I just don't want to trouble my uncle, so I came to find my cousin first." ”

Mu Jinghua leaned on the peony pillow and said, "I'll help you shake hands with Miss Zhao, you don't have to thank me." ”

Thank?

Thank her for two slaps, it's almost the same!

tried her best to endure it, Minglan didn't get mad on the spot, but the anger in her heart was like waves, Minglan knew that she was not as tolerant as she imagined, and some people could easily provoke the anger of others.

The corners of her mouth unconsciously lifted a sneer, "The way my cousin helps people shake hands and make peace, it is very unique, it is really eye-opening, between sisters, there is no need to say thank you, but I Gu Minglan has always been kind and must be repaid, my cousin helped me so much, how can I not repay the peach, before I came, I went to Shuyu Pavilion for a trip, picked out a few sets of headdresses, and asked the young man of Shuyu Pavilion to give it to a few ladies who had a little disagreement with my cousin before, and the bill will be delivered in a while." ”

Mu Jinghua's eyes were on fire, and Ding asked, "How much did you spend?!"

"Not much, sixteen thousand taels. ”

Ding stood up suddenly, his face was blue, as if he was about to eat someone.

Is this angry?

Minglan sneered.

Mu Jinghua was crazy with anger, and she couldn't wait to pounce over and bite off a few pieces of Minglan's meat, she slammed her teeth up and down, "I just let you spend three thousand taels, and Miss Zhao also gave you a hairpin, but you want me to spend so much money, what is your intention?!"

Asking such a stupid word, is it really just an arm, not a head?

She's obviously a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye.

But since she asked so, she gave her an explanation, Minglan shrugged, with an innocent face, "How do you call me what's in my heart, my cousin and you have the same thoughts, we both hope to be good with each other, one more enemy is better than one more friend, money is just something outside the body, so why bother? It's just that over the years, I have only disliked Miss Zhao, cousin, you have a little more grudges with others, but you have a good heart for others, and those ladies have received generous gifts, and they will only be good friends with you." ”

"I won't pay the money!" Mu Jinghua almost crushed her silver teeth.

Minglan looked at her, smiling rather than smiling, like an acacia flower falling from a tree, she said, "The bill was sent to the Muyang Hou Mansion, and I couldn't get the money, but the reputation of the Hou Mansion was damaged." ”

Ding couldn't listen anymore, "You know that you will lose the reputation of the Hou Mansion, you still do it!Do you take your uncle's reputation to heart?!"

Her voice was very loud, Minglan was close, her eardrums were about to suffer a heavy blow, she said, "What is my aunt doing when she is so angry, my cousin and I help each other, she wants me to be good, I hope she is good, my uncle is too late to be happy, my cousin asked Shuyuge to send the bill to Bofu, didn't my mother pay without hesitation." ”

Ding stared at Minglan deadly, like a poisonous snake that couldn't pounce and bite at any time, "Can three thousand taels and sixteen thousand taels be compared?!"

She roared a little louder, and Minglan shrunk her neck.

Outside, Mu Zhen walked in, heard this voice, and then looked at Minglan's frightened appearance, his face was very long, "Just talk well, what are you doing so loudly?!"

Seeing Mu Zhen, a flash of panic flashed in Ding's eyes, didn't he go to the barracks, why did he come back.

Ding didn't want Mu Zhen to know, but now she wished he knew, she said, " Hou Ye came back, the former son Jinghua intended to let Minglan and Miss Zhao turn into jade silk, this is not later when she fell down from the upstairs and was taken away by Master Chu, Jinghua saw that Miss Zhao was a little relieved, and couldn't bear to fall short, so she gave Miss Zhao a set of three thousand taels of headdress in the name of Minglan, and Miss Zhao also sent Minglan a headdress, just now she went to Shuyu Pavilion to buy a headdress of 16,000 taels for Jinghua, and the bill was sent to the Hou Mansion in a while, that is not a small amount, how can I not be angry?"

After Ding finished speaking, Bizhu said, "The hairpin that Miss Zhao gave to the girl is worth two hundred taels. ”

No one turns hostility into friendship, that's how it is.

It's clearly just spending money to please people.

Mu Zhen's face was as black as ink, and his face was cold and terrifying, "Why did Minglan offend Miss Zhao, and she needed to spend so much silver in exchange for her regardless of her past suspicions?"

Mu Jinghua was still very afraid of Mu Zhen's black face, she trembled and said, "Mrs. Zhao's Mansion is the grandmother's house of Princess Li, and my cousin has a grudge with Miss Zhao, I am worried that she will marry into Liwangfu, and Princess Lili will not like her, I am all for her good." ”

"Yes, I'm all for my cousin," Minglan smiled like a spring breeze.

Ding's couldn't wait to peel Minglan and cramp, she looked at Mu Zhen and said, "Sixteen thousand taels of silver, I won't pay it, the old lady knows it, and she won't agree!"

Mu Zhen's eyes were cold, but Ding sat down and glanced away, not looking at Mu Zhen.

Mu Zhen looked at Minglan, "This money, uncle is out." ”

Minglan shook his head and smiled, "No one has to come out, I just made a joke with Cousin Jinghua, I told her, I disdain to shake hands with Miss Zhao, in the future, everyone will not release river water, my cousin will take my words as a deaf ear, and use my name to please Miss Zhao, I can't bear it, I just want to teach her a lesson and help her have a long memory, this time I am good to talk, next time I will not." ”

Mu Zhen glared at Ding, "Why don't you hurry up and give five thousand taels to Minglan!"

Ding was reluctant, and Minglan was still reluctant to accept it, "Uncle, give the money to your cousin, let her buy another set of headdresses, and exchange the headdresses she gave to Miss Zhao in my name for me, I only need that set of headgear." ”

"You are a strong man's difficulty!" Mu Jinghua said angrily, "How can there be any reason to bring back the things that were sent?"

Minglan smiled coldly, "My cousin knows a lot of truths, don't you understand what it means to be a substitute for Yue? The contradiction between me and Miss Zhao is not my fault, giving her a set of headdresses, but it is like I am flattering her, I don't need to do this." ”
