189 Aggrieved
The two girls were fighting over a piece of cloth in the splendid spinning, and the people who bought the cloth next to them also stopped and stood from a distance to watch them and point.
"Whose child? Why are you so rude? ”
"It's just, it's too rude."
"Ouch, if it's my child, I'll have to break her leg when I go back."
"I won't let them go out in the future, it's too embarrassing!"
……
The voices of others poured into He Qiutong's ears, and she was angry, anxious and annoyed.
"Man, check out." She doesn't want to be pointed at here, after all, she is still a little girl, thin-skinned, and she will marry in the future.
The girl next to her snorted coldly, "Shopkeeper, don't sell it to her, I'll pay twelve taels, you sell it to me!" ”
When He Qiutong heard this, his anger also came up.
"I'll give fifteen taels!" She said loudly.
"Twenty!" The other girl was not to be outdone.
He Qiutong was angry.
She suddenly remembered that Qiu Ci and the county lord of Jiayi snatched the jewelry in the golden building, and in the end, the jewelry was bought by the county lord of Jiayi for 1,500 taels.
The original price was only a few dozen taels of jewelry, but it was raised dozens of times by Shengsheng, and it was not Qiu Ci who lost face, but the lord of Jiayi.
Perhaps, she could follow suit?
Things have developed so far that it is no longer a matter of a piece of cloth.
However, she didn't add up to more than twenty taels of silver, and she didn't have the confidence to shout anymore.
But if you don't shout, wouldn't that be the girl's words?
You poor ghost!
Thinking of this, He Qiutong was full of indignation.
"Twenty-five!" She opened her mouth and shouted.
As soon as she said it, she regretted it again, if the girl didn't shout, she would be miserable.
"Thirty taels!" The girl opposite did not hesitate to increase the price.
He Qiutong's heart fell.
Thankfully, she shouted, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to get the money.
Seeing that girl's strength without hesitation, if she continues, the girl should also shout.
"Thirty-five!" He Qiutong raised his head, like a rooster with a bickering mouth.
The girl on the other side opened her mouth.
Shout, shout! He Qiutong thought to himself.
Unexpectedly, the girl just glanced at her with disdain, opened her mouth and said, "Thirty-five? This kind of material is only twenty taels at most in other silk villages. If you like it, then take it, and I'll buy it somewhere else. ”
He Qiutong was stunned, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
"How? Pay for it. The girl looked at her gloatingly. As if she was sure she couldn't afford to pay.
He Qiutong's face instantly turned red.
Digging a pit, why does she have to fill the hole she dug herself?
Why?
Why can He Qiuci trap others? And she can only pit herself?
What she didn't know was that from the beginning when she considered whether she had money or not, she had already exposed her own shortcomings and vented her confidence.
She only had twenty taels on her. But she wanted to shout a higher price than twenty taels, her weakness of heart and her cowardice had been clearly laid out.
How can such a person be able to trap others?
"Shopkeeper, this young lady said that she would pay thirty-five taels to buy your cloth, why don't you hurry up and let her pay?" The girl seemed to think that He Qiutong was not ashamed enough, and said to the store like fanning the flames.
The shopkeeper also understood.
This young lady who shouted so loudly probably didn't have enough money to pay.
"Miss, Sheng Hui thirty-five taels." The shopkeeper wrapped the cloth. He Qiutong smiled and handed it to him.
He Qiutong looked at the wrapped cloth, and he didn't pick it up, and he didn't pick it up.
"You...... Isn't this cloth ten taels of silver? After a long time, she finally said such a sentence.
The crowd around laughed.
"It turned out that there was really not enough money."
"What kind of lady is this?"
"It's a shame."
"Who's to say it's not, it's a shame."
"If you don't have money, you're embarrassed to rob others."
……
The girl opposite looked at He Qiutong with a sarcastic expression.
"It was originally ten taels, but you have to give thirty-five taels? How? Will this run out of money? Can't afford it? She sarcastically said, "What are you robbing if you don't have any money?" Say you're a poor ghost, but you don't recognize it! ”
He Qiutong felt the sneering and sarcastic gazes of the crowd around him, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
How can she be so ashamed!
How could she be so ashamed?!
She froze in place, her face blue and white.
"Don't pay yet!" The girl on the other side urged her again.
He Qiutong couldn't. I had to pour out all the money in my purse.
When it was full, it was only twenty taels of silver.
"Do you have a purse with you?" He Qiutong bit his lip and said to the maid behind him, "Give me the money." I'll pay you back when I go back. ”
"Miss, I don't have a purse." The maid wept and said, "Otherwise, let them go to the house and get it." ”
It's not impossible, it's just that He Qiutong doesn't want to do it.
If you say it and let them go to the Marquis of Anping Mansion to get it, won't everyone know her identity? also knew that she didn't even have thirty-five taels on her.
I want to be at the beginning. He Qiuci is casually thrown, it is 10,000 taels.
is also a girl from the Hou Mansion, why doesn't she even have dozens of taels on her?
And He Qiutong rarely goes out on weekdays, and few people know her, if she tells her identity, then does she still have this face?
She was in a big fight with the girl across from her just now.
"Your sister is so poor." During the day, he watched the play while drinking tea in the private room, and commented a few words from time to time, "Not only poor, but also stupid." ”
Akiji smiled.
He Qiutong is stupid, but she fell into her trap before.
Now it is also time to teach her a lesson, to let her know that not everyone will accommodate her, and not everyone will be good to her.
"Miss, if you don't bring any money, then we'll help you deliver it to the house." The shopkeeper is an understanding person, he looked at He Qiutong and said.
He Qiutong was poked at the key point and glared at him fiercely, "No! ”
She doesn't have any money when she goes home, so who will she ask for money when the time comes?
Old lady?
That's not to be scolded to death, maybe to be punished for copying Buddhist scriptures fifty times, she just punished a few days ago, she doesn't want to do it again.
Looking for Mei Kexin?
This is even worse. She treated Qiu Ci like that before, Mei Kexin must have hated her to death, and it was impossible to help her.
Then find Aunt Liu?
Well, that's a good idea.
Aunt Liu and Aunt Ji have always been close. She'll help herself.
and He Qiuxue, she will also help her.
He Qiutong thought, feeling slightly at ease.
"Do you want me to lend it to you?" The girl opposite didn't mean to leave, obviously wanting to see He Qiutong's jokes.
"No need for your stinky money!" He Qiutong glared and shouted, "Why are you doing here if you don't buy things?" Don't go yet! ”
"This shop is not owned by yours." The girl on the other side said. "You can control me."
He Qiutong wanted to step forward and grab the girl, but the maids behind the girl had already prepared, flashed in front of the girl to protect her, and looked at He Qiutong with a vigilant face.
"Pay quickly, poor ghost." The girl poked her head out behind the maids and urged.
He Qiutong really didn't know what to do, she really wished that she could be like Qiu Ci, just throw it casually, it was 10,000 taels and thousands of taels, so that she could slap the face of the girl opposite.
Just then, a fellow stepped forward and said something to the old guy. The guy in the shop looked at He Qiutong thoughtfully.
Then, he smiled at He Qiutong and said, "Miss, this way, you pay a deposit of twenty taels first, and we will keep this cloth for you, and when you are free another day, come and pick up the cloth." ”
He Qiutong's eyes lit up, as if he didn't dare to confirm what he had heard.
"Are you telling the truth?" She asked.
The shop guy nodded with a smile, "The shop never does anything that makes customers embarrassed. Since the young lady didn't bring enough silver taels today, it is okay to pay the deposit in advance. ”
He Qiutong can't manage it so much, so that he can take care of his face. You don't have to reveal your identity, it's the best of both worlds.
She hurriedly paid twenty taels of silver, and she couldn't care about the cynicism behind her, so she hurried home.
On the way home, her feverish head calmed down, still remorseful.
and he paid twenty taels of silver. Then I have to pay another fifteen taels of silver to get a piece of cloth that was originally priced at ten taels of silver!
Anyway, she's losing a lot today!
But the store still saved some face for her, if it weren't for that, she really didn't know what to do today.
After she left, Qiu Ci also said goodbye to Bai Rixi.
"Pick up a piece of cloth and take it back." Bai Rixiao said, "I'm angry with your sister." ”
Qiu Ci smiled, "Their children are just vindictive, do I have to grab it?" ”
Bai Rixi pouted, "If it were me, I wouldn't let her go, and let the house take the silver to ransom her." ”
Qiu Ji smiled and poked her head.
She knew that Bai Rixi was joking, just a few dozen taels of silver, and no one who did business would do such a thing.
The way they deal with it today is the most appropriate.
Qiu Ci came out of the splendid spun, and originally wanted to go back to the Hou Mansion directly, but she didn't expect Song Yu's guards to stop her.
"Miss He, the master is waiting for you in the natural residence."
As soon as they received the news that Miss He was in Jinxiufang, they hurried over to wait, but they didn't expect Miss He to come out for so long.
The master has been waiting for the natural dwelling for a long time.
Autumn words frowned.
Song Yu is looking for her again?
Why does he know every time she goes out?
If Song Yu hadn't sent someone to spy on her, he wouldn't have believed her if he killed her.
Qiu Ci secretly reminded himself that he must be more careful when he goes out at night in the future, so that Song Yu's people can't find out.
This person is too vigilant, and sends people to keep an eye on her almost all the time, afraid that she will do something bad.
Natural dwelling.
Song Yu was wearing a large hat that reached to the ground, and he stood in front of the window, looking at the crowded street downstairs with deep eyes.
He poured himself a drink for more than an hour, but she hadn't arrived.
What's so nice about that splendid spinning? As for how long you can't finish watching?
If she really liked the cloth of the Splendid Workshop, then he would buy the Splendid Workshop and let her see enough.
When Qiu Ci walked in, Song Yu was still standing in front of the window, and his back even had a hint of ...... Lonely.
Qiu Zi subconsciously touched his nose.
Lonely?
She must have read it wrong.
Song Yu didn't seem to sense her coming in, and stood there straight.
Qiu Zhi knew that he was waiting for himself to speak, so he had to say, "Have you waited for a long time?" ”
You know you've been waiting a long time, right?
Song Yu turned around and looked at her with a hint of resentment in his eyes.
"The tea is cold." He said.
Qiu Ci sat down, a little doubtful that he was out of mind today, how could he feel that Song Yu was lonely and resentful.
"Then make another pot." She said naturally as she reached out and held the tea handle, poured out the previously cold tea, and replaced it with boiling water, "Is there something wrong?" ”
Of course there is.
It has been dozens of days since the racecourse parted, and Song Yu has not been able to see her.
finally came out, but she went to Jinxiufang for a long time, causing him to wait.
Song Yu didn't speak, just stared at her action of making tea, and followed the teapot in her hand up and down.
A shopkeeper came up with a plate of delicate dumplings.
"The dumplings of the natural dwelling are notoriously delicious, you can taste them." Song Yu said, and put a dumpling into the bowl in front of her.
Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and he is bent on eating dumplings with her.
Qiu Ci looked at the plate of dumplings with a slightly embarrassed expression.
She had just eaten at Bai Rixi's place, how could she still eat now?
She didn't do it for a long time, and Song Yu asked, "Not appetizing?" ”
Qiu Ci couldn't bear to brush off his kindness, so he had to reluctantly eat one, "It's okay." ”
Song Yu clipped her with another one, "Eat more." ”
Qiu Ci hurriedly blocked the bowl with his hand, "I'm enough, you can eat more." ”
I just ate one, and I said enough?
She has obviously been in Jinxiu Spinning for more than an hour, and now she has only come out, so she is full?
There are quirks.
Song Yu put the dumplings into his mouth and let out a faint sigh.
Qiu Ci let go of his hand at this time.
"How about the fabric of Fairview." He asked casually.
Qiu Ci didn't react for a while, but it took a long time to realize that he was asking about the cloth spun by Jinxiu, "It's pretty good." ”
"Why didn't you buy it?" Song Yu asked again.
When she first came out, she was empty-handed.
"I didn't like it." Autumn words said.
After shopping for more than an hour, didn't like it?
Song Yu suddenly felt a little aggrieved.
Who did she see when she went to Fairview Workshop? Is it hard for him to wait for her here for more than an hour, but she has been with others in the Splendid Workshop for more than an hour?
"How is Mr. Jing?" Qiu Ci saw that Song Yu suddenly had no words, so he found a topic.
"It's fine." Song Yu said lightly.
He was ******** thinking about who Qiu Ci had met with.
After Qiu Ci left, he called Xiao Zhizheng in with a calm face.
"Let's check, who else is going to Fairview today."
Xiao Zhizheng took the order and left.
Although Qiu Ci felt that Song Yu was a little inexplicable when he saw her, it was also reasonable.
Originally, Song Yu didn't have anything to do with her, but she just wanted to sue her, I was staring at you all the time, and you don't want to do anything bad.
Maybe he will feel more at ease when he sees her.
Because his warning came, he himself was relieved.
Qiu Ci left Song Yu behind and returned to the Hou Mansion.
He Qiutong is borrowing money from He Qiuxue.
