Cheng's heart was already vomiting blood. The jewelry that this girl chose is worth thousands of gold, which is more expensive than the few things she chose before. Cheng was a little angry in his heart, he really didn't need to pay for it himself, and he didn't know how to be a guest at all. Knowing that this is the case, it is really a big mistake for her to choose where to choose.

Mother Deng was surprised by Yueyao's attitude. With what she knew about the girl, the girl would not take these jewelry to heart. Madame left behind not only a lot of jewelry, but basically everything is fine. For example, the bracelet on Yueyao's hand is not the best in Yueyao's jewelry box.

The shopkeeper was also a little hesitant at first, but looking at Yueyao's calm and watery expression, no matter how much muttering he swallowed. This child is incomprehensible at a young age.

Cheng vomited blood in his heart, but he still had to pretend to be kind on his face: "Later, the embroidery lady will measure the size for you, and if you have any requirements, tell the embroidery girl." "There will be outsiders present, and we must not lose face.

Yueyao is as kind as flowing: "Okay, uncle." ”

Back in Begonia Garden, Yueyao accompanied Brother Zheng to read and write. I hope that my uncle will find a suitable gentleman as soon as possible, she knows a lot of words and has enough knowledge. But she is not a gentleman after all, and she can't teach her brother better. It is still necessary to have a special gentleman to teach it.

Outside, the embroidery girl came over, and Yueyao walked out. The embroidery lady is in the mansion, and generally large families have their own embroidery rooms. Even the house has it, but the number of people is not large, = one = this = read = novel xstxt only for a few masters. The subordinates are all purchased from outside.

The embroidery lady asked about Yueyao's size and preferences. Yueyao said, "I don't have any special preferences. You should also know that I am now keeping filial piety, and my clothes are plain and simple. Nothing else. "The body grows fast, and I don't wear it for a few months.

The embroidery girl said yes again and again.

On the other hand, Cheng also picked out some jewelry. As a result, when the bill was settled, a total of nine thousand eight hundred and sixty taels of silver were spent. Among them, Yueyao's cost was the largest, spending more than 5,800 taels of silver.

Ma Yuan, the housekeeper of the outer courtyard, heard that the jewelry cost so much at one time, and after being silent for a while, he said, "Let the account room settle the bill." I'll tell you later. ”

What Yue Yao didn't know was that the Cheng clan in the outer courtyard didn't know about it. The accounts of the inner court are also statuted. It's a big expense like this one, and it's only once a year. Yueyao just happened to run into it. It was precisely because Yue Yao ran into it that Ma Yuan asked the people below to settle the bill. If it was someone else, Ma Yuan would not be so happy, but yesterday the old man chatted with Miss Biao for an afternoon and an evening, and when he came back, he invited him to talk a lot. Words are full of guilt. Now that it has cost thousands of taels of silver, I believe that the master will not say anything.

After the female shopkeeper went out, she looked at the silver ticket in her hand. It's the off-season, and business is not doing well. Otherwise, where is the time to come to the door? But this time I went out, and I made a lot of money.

The maid beside her whispered, "This girl was so bold just now. Everyone else picks two or three pieces of jewelry, but she picks so many by herself, and she picks up expensive ones. ”

The female shopkeeper stopped and said, "If you know something, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand." "That girl's behavior must have been deliberate. But to say that he is shallow and does not understand etiquette, it is not obvious. She looked at a few girls, and that one was the most thoughtful. As for why, it is not known. She didn't know that way. But with this cousin, the girl made a lot of money.

That night, Yueyao accompanied Brother Zheng to practice calligraphy. The little guy next to Ma Chengteng came over and asked Yueyao to prepare and take her out tomorrow.

Yueyao thought for a while, went back to the study, took a pen and paper, and wrote on it. Blow dry, fold and put in your sleeve.

Returned to his house, let people go out, opened the box and checked the things again, and after the inspection, he called Deng's mother: "Mom, you will take this box with you tomorrow." I'll take it to the firm tomorrow for storage. "Since my uncle said that he would take him out tomorrow, these things must naturally be prepared.

Mother Deng took the box: "Don't worry, girl, I will take it with me." Although she didn't see what Yue Yao put in with her own eyes, she also guessed that it was not far from ten. If Mo is really so shameless, then the contents of this box will be the girl's reliance in the future.

If Mother Deng knew that the things in it were all ancient books, I was afraid that she would faint. It took so much effort to save a dozen books.

This night, Yueyao lay on the bed and couldn't sleep, so she got up and put on her clothes. Mother Deng was awakened immediately, walked over and asked, "Girl, what's wrong?" ”

Yue Yao smiled: "It's nothing, I just can't sleep." ”

Mother Deng didn't know the worries in Yueyao's heart, and said with relief: "Don't worry, girl. Mohs just has that unclean mind. As long as we are on guard, we will be fine. ”

Yue Yao smiled bitterly, but didn't say anything more. After a lifetime, let her know that in fact, the most untrustworthy person is not Mo, but the eldest uncle. With so many things happening in her previous life, she didn't believe that her uncle would know nothing. The real person in charge of the Lian family is the uncle, not the Mo family. So the Mo family who came forward is not terrible, and the terrible thing is hidden behind the scenes.

She thought that if everything went well tomorrow, it wouldn't change anything. Uncle is reliable now, but what if something happens to her uncle. Therefore, she must seek a strong external force. But this external force is not so easy to find.

The family is more important than everything, even if you want to die for the sake of the family, you can't frown. If she wants to betray Lianjia, there may be no place for her in the capital. This society is so cruel and ruthless.

Under the persuasion of Mother Deng, Yueyao went back to bed. Reciting the scriptures silently on the bed, I don't know how many times I recited the Heart Sutra, Yueyao regained her composure and fell asleep.

On the second day, Yueyao was cleaning up by the flower buds. Mother Deng brought the hat, and Yueyao watched as the white veil of the hat hung down to cover her hands.

In a place like Qianzhuang, people come and go, and there are people of all religions and nine streams. This kind of thing is necessary in the eyes of Mother Deng. Yue Yao saw the hat, but she unexpectedly remembered her previous life. Return to the capital from thousands of miles away from the capital. At that time, what kind of hat was used: "Mom, I'm only eight years old now, where do I need to wear this thing." "It's usually worn by adult women. She's still so young, where do you need to be on guard to this point.

Mother Deng also has her own concerns: "Girl, if you let the old lady know that your uncle took you to Qianzhuang, you won't even wear a hat." I'm afraid it will be difficult to stay in the mansion next time. "It's also great to come out and stay in Mafu for a few days once in a while. At least let Mo know that the girl has the backing and will not act without scruples.

Yue Yao thought for a moment and nodded. After tidying up, he said to Brother Zheng'er: "My sister has something to do when I go out with my uncle today." Brother Zheng obediently stayed in the yard, waiting for his sister to come back. You know? ”

After getting along for a while, Brother Zheng is not as anxious as he was at the beginning. Hearing Yueyao say that she had something to do: "I'll wait for my sister to come back." ”

Yueyao is still very pleased with Brother Zheng'er's well-behaved and sensible. Even if Brother Zheng can't become a talent in the future, An An will still be able to live by guarding the family wealth.

Yueyao had breakfast in Begonia Garden, and went to the room to greet Cheng's family. As soon as I asked Cheng Shi to say goodbye, there was a long retinue waiting in the front yard outside.

Cheng looked at Yue Yao suspiciously. This posture is going out. Cheng didn't know that Ma Chengteng was planning to take Yueyao out today.

Yue Yao smiled and said, "I want to find a book to practice calligraphy, but I am not satisfied with it." My uncle said that I was going to the bookstore today to look for a few things. It just took me there, maybe I can pick a satisfactory one somewhere. ”

Cheng's own background belongs to the nouveau riche, the grandfather is a pig killer, and the grandfather is a farmer, and her father did not get up until she got up, but her mother is also a merchant girl. Because of the family environment, Cheng's cognition is that a woman can recognize two words, and no matter how much she learns, it is useless. Because of her idea, Ma Linlin was also much lighter. At the moment, he naturally frowned and said: "The girl knows a few words, don't be blind, just read the account book." What else are you looking for? ”

In this era, it is generally the father who teaches the son, and the mother who teaches the daughter. As a result, Linlin's handwriting was miserable, but unfortunately no one cared about it.

Yueyao said with a smile: "My aunt misunderstood, not for me, but for my brother." Yueyao knew that Cheng's thought that a woman was virtuous if she was not talented. But they don't even have a family affair and a scholarly family, if the girl from their family only knows a few words, the face of the family will be lost. In Lianjia, except for the special situation of Yuehuan, several other girls, which did not start reading and reading at the age of three. However, because there is no need for the imperial examination, it is also too demanding. But being able to produce talented women is also an affirmation for the family.

Mother Deng despised and sighed in her heart. I used to think that this uncle and wife were narrow-minded, but now it seems that she is still short-sighted. If the concubine knows a few words, it will be enough, but the concubine in the family will recognize a few words, which will definitely make people laugh. Ahem, why did you choose such a vulgar woman as your steproom in the first place...... If Mother Deng knew that Ma Linlin would recognize a few words, she would probably faint.

When she arrived at the front yard, Yue Yao saw that her uncle was wearing a bamboo blue silk shirt, and his hair was tied with a net scarf, revealing a sense of elegance. Yue Yao exclaimed with a smile on her face, "Uncle." ”

Ma Chengteng saw that Yue Yao was wearing a moon-white plain dress today, with a light blue gown on the outside. Under the Huhang plain face skirt, only the first-class Yun Baifu beads are hung on the waist. In the simplicity and elegance, there was a bit of demureness, and he nodded with satisfaction.

After getting into the carriage, Yueyao looked at a small table in the middle of the carriage, and there was tea and a few plates of snacks on the table. Tables and chairs are placed around the perimeter. The four walls are covered with cyan satin, and a small window is open on the right, and a gray-blue curtain hangs from the window.

Yueyao looked comfortable, this should have been temporarily arranged, because she was afraid of her identity as a filial piety. Otherwise, there is really a gap with the pomp and circumstance of Mafu.

After walking for half an hour, it began to be lively outside. Yueyao heard the hawker's call. I guess it's at the central market. Yueyao asked Mother Deng to lift the curtain. Seeing that Mother Deng objected, Yueyao said with a smile: "I'm only eight years old this year, if you don't feel at ease, I'll put on my hat." ”

Deng's mother strongly objected. It's also time to be a governor at the age of eight. Don't let those family members go back to the mansion to talk.

Yueyao smiled and insisted on lifting the curtain. Look at the scenery outside. At this time, a young man riding a carriage passed by the side of the carriage. Yue Yao was retracting the curtain, but unexpectedly, the young man on horseback happened to look at her.

The two stared at each other for three seconds, and Yue Yao waited until the young man turned around and rode away before coming back to his senses. Yue Yao also thought about the young man's eyes without a trace of warmth, and she was a little frightened in her heart. Who is this man? How can she be more bitter and bitter than her at such a young age.

Mother Deng pushed Yueyao: "Girl, what's wrong?" ”

Yue Yao shook her head: "It's nothing. ”

What Yue Yao didn't know was that after the young man walked a few steps, he couldn't help but look back at the carriage that Yue Yao was riding.

The little guy next to the young man shouted: "Young master, what are you looking at?" ”

The young man said coldly, "I didn't see anything. Return to the lodge before dark. "It's disgusting not to go back to the villa, to live in the mansion, and to face that group of hypocritical and vicious women.
