Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Hands of the East Pearl
Shen Jinyu has no concept of how to use the money in Beijing, her usual daily expenses in the Cheng Mansion are arranged by Jasper, she thinks about it, the only explanation is: Sang Tian cherishes beauty, and he lives a luxurious life, or not to say that he himself, she has seen with her own eyes Even the daily use of the maid Yuheng and so on is expensive, and he often feels happy and sends things out, and does not regard money as a big deal.

Otherwise, she really didn't understand how she could give such a valuable hosta to someone she met for the first time.
Biyu carefully picked up the beads and looked at the lamp carefully: "This Dongzhu is good, but it's a pity that it is a little less, if you can string a bracelet, five hundred taels can also be exchanged, now there are only a few of them, I'm afraid it is not so valuable." ”
Shen Jinyu said: "I don't know, it's just that I was in Lingnan back then...... Hey, put these few away, and you'll help me find someone to figure out how to be tomorrow. Otherwise, I can't afford to pay back the favor of this hairpin. ”
Back then, in Lingnan, after entering the county lord's mansion, she was anxious to use money to pay for the big girl around the county lord and the county horse, and she didn't have much with her, so she could only remove the beads she had been wearing and give them away.
Biyu asked, "Where have you been these days, and how did you get these?" ”
Shen Jinyu told Biyu about what happened in the past few days, and Biyu asked: "You and Nasang Gongzi are only one-sided, why did he give you such valuable jewelry?" And who do you want to pay back this hairpin's favor? Su Qing or Linglong? This was given by Sang Gongzi, isn't your favor wrong? Besides, if you return it directly to Sang Gongzi, wouldn't this back and forth be called a private gift? ”
Shen Jinyu smiled, patted Biyu's shoulder and said, "No wonder it's the person who followed Sister Han, you helped me think about it very well." ”
After rolling the beads on the table and playing for a while, she said to Jasper: "You see this is good, this bead, when the two go out, you can help me draw a piece of jewelry for the rest, and ask someone to inlay the beads and make two hairpins, in this way, I ask Cheng Xuan to give it to Sangtian, if you want to keep it or send it, it will be determined by him, and I will repay this favor." ”
Biyu counted the beads and said: "There are nine in total, when there are five, it can only be exchanged for thirty or fifty taels of silver, this Dongzhu hand is rare is the size of the beads, the color is the same, you break it up like this, it is really a waste." ”
Shen Jinyu didn't say anything, only silently fiddled with these beads, which were originally brought by her grandfather's hand.
This is the difficulty of riding a tiger, I didn't know the depth at the beginning, I received this jewelry, and now I can't afford to pay it back.
Jasper helped her pack her clothes and put away the wooden box of the silver ticket. Shen Jinyu cleaned up the jewelry box she brought from Sang Tian, and there was a wishful hairpin under the box, she picked it up and saw that it was actually the one that Cheng Xuan helped her make on the mountain that night.
She originally thought she had lost it, but now she can be regarded as a lost one. Shen Jinyu took it in her hand and looked at it carefully, before she put the wooden hairpin at the bottom of the jewelry box that Mrs. Li gave her, and slowly closed the box.
Only then did she remember to tell Biyu about Cheng Xuan's arrival at night, and Biyu was shocked: "Miss, you are not right, meeting with a man in private late at night is a violation of the rules, and it will ruin Miss's reputation." ”
Shen Jinyu thought of Lingnan for a while, thought of the Han family's Zhenzhen, and thought of Sangtian's residence and Mrs. Li.
She lay on the table, pillowed her head with one hand, and on a summer night, after a long time, wet and sticky sweat flowed down her forehead, dripping on her arms, warm and cold.
Like a thousand words that cannot be spoken, the thunder rumbles around my heart, and in the end I can only sigh and say: "I still have a girlfriend reputation now?" ”
In the blink of an eye, at night, Shen Jinyu took a bath and changed into the clothes originally prepared for her by Cheng Fu, and asked Biyu to make her a cup of tea to prevent sleep.
On the third watch, Cheng Xuan arrived as promised, and Biyu was guarding outside the door for fear that someone would come.
Cheng Xuan didn't be polite, and went straight to the point: "Before you were in Sangtian, a doctor checked for you, saying that your body is too cold, I was originally afraid that there was a problem in my house, but today the doctor helped my sister and mother to check the pulse, and they have no problem, I think of the poison you were in when you first entered the house, I am afraid that this matter is aimed at you." ”
There were no more lights in the middle of the night, and under the dim light, it was impossible to see what the expression of Shen Jinyu's face was, Cheng Xuan continued: "I'm afraid that there will be a lot of people in the big kitchen now, you and Fluttershy will use her small kitchen together these days, and I'll help you add a small kitchen in your yard, just yourself, be more careful with the people around you." ”
Shen Jinyu raised his head at this time and looked at Cheng Xuan and smiled slightly: "Thank you for bothering, it's just that you don't have to worry about the small kitchen, even if you make a small kitchen, you may not be able to keep an eye on it step by step, let alone ......"
Shen Jinyu has been in Lingnan, and she has also seen all kinds of strange people, she remembered the strange poisoning when she first came to Chengfu, which made her uncomfortable, but did not kill her, although there was a master to rescue, but if she used the poison that sealed her throat with blood, there was no time for her to be rescued.
Cheng Xuan said just now that only she was poisoned by the female dependents in the whole mansion, so this poison came at her, she couldn't live in Cheng Mansion, whether there was a small kitchen or not, these things would happen.
Now that she understands this, how can she make more trouble with others?
Shen Jinyu thought about it carefully, but she had no clue where things started.
Cheng Xuan was puzzled. Shen Jinyu didn't plan to explain more, but only said goodbye to Cheng Xuan: "I know about this, I will pay more attention to it, thank Cheng Gongzi for bothering, but it is more late at night, and it is inconvenient for Gongzi to stay for a long time." ”
After Cheng Xuan left, Biyu came in and saw Shen Jinyu's face was very ugly, and asked her what happened, Shen Jinyu asked blankly: "Biyu, if I want to leave, are you willing to follow me?" ”
Biyu stepped forward and grabbed Shen Jinyu's hand and said, "How can Miss say stupid things, from now on, I will naturally follow Miss, and I will go wherever you go." ”
Shen Jinyu's eyes were empty, the enemy was dark and I was clear, she didn't know anything about the other party, and she stayed for a while before she smiled and said to Biyu: "Grandfather's words are really right, the capital is not where I should come, and now I am leaving." It's just that you're suffering, and you have to follow me to the wind and rain. ”
Biyu looked at Shen Jinyu and said, "Miss can endure the hardships, how can I not bear them." I'm going to follow you. ”
Shen Jinyu counted the silver ticket in his hand and said to Biyu: "From now on, I have to start preparing to move out next year, is the silver in my hand enough to buy a small house near the capital?" Beads and jewelry, you help me buy some copper gilt outside, it looks good, and the clothes and accessories will also start to prepare for next year's summer clothes, let's do it together, my female celebrity is not very good, and I can barely get by. ”
