273 White is susceptible
Bai Yi and Xiang Wei were also relieved to see Mingzhu recover so quickly, this situation was several times better than the two of them imagined. The two of them also knew that this was all the bad credit that Yue Yao had always been talking about Ning Lixuan in Mingzhu before, otherwise Mingzhu would not have recovered so quickly.
After this matter was dealt with, Yue Yao was also relaxed. As long as Mingzhu doesn't marry Ning Lixuan, he will definitely be able to go smoothly in the future.
It is not unreasonable for Yue Yao to be so confident. As long as the prince Luo Shao really loves Mingzhu, he will definitely not be so hasty next time after suffering this loss, and he will definitely choose a good husband for Mingzhu at that time. Of course, she will also be on the side for reference. As long as it is carefully selected, it will definitely be better than Ning Lixuan, a hypocrite.
Mingzhu said: "It's still early! Let's go shopping again! "Now that it's out, it's natural to buy one.
Yueyao nodded, for the sake of Mingzhu's sadness, she gave up her life to accompany the gentleman.
The people from these shops sent the things to the Jingning Marquis Mansion one after another, and then took the sign to the account office to ask for the account. The bookkeeper confirmed the pair of cards and paid the bill without hesitation.
Banyu muttered to Ping, "Madam, the girl has already bought 26,000 taels of silver. "On weekdays, I only buy a maximum of 10,000 taels when I go out, but this time it's a bit much.
Ping smiled: "There are not many opportunities like this. "The things Mingzhu bought are all reported in the outer courtyard, and they have nothing to do with her. didn't get any money out of his hands, and Ping's didn't feel much distressed.
I bought it until the sun was about to set, and under Yueyao's persuasion, Mingzhu stopped. According to Yue Yao's estimate, Mingzhu bought no less than thirty or forty thousand taels of silver this time.
Yueyao sent three words to Mingzhu: "Loser girl." ”
Mingzhu thought back to what she bought, and said to herself, "It seems that she bought a little more." She didn't know, anyway, she bought what she liked, and didn't think much about anything else.
Yue Yao persuaded: "In the future, buy things to see if you can use them, buying a lot of useless things is a complete waste, and having more money is not such a flower." ”
Mingzhu humbly accepts criticism. At the fork in the road, the two were about to separate, and Yue Yao said: "Bai Yi may be punished if he goes back this time, Mingzhu, you have to protect Bai Yi." She is genuinely good for you, and this incident would not have been possible without her behind-the-scenes help. ”
Mingzhu nodded and said, "Don't worry!" I will. ”
Yueyao looked at Mingzhu's appearance, but she was still not at ease, and asked Zhiqin to take good care of Mingzhu. She was afraid that Mingzhu would let go on her face, but there was still a knot in her heart, which was not good.
Mingzhu muttered and said unhappily: "Don't worry, I'm fine." It's a lot of talk, like an old woman. ”
Yue Yao glared at her.
Mingzhu hurriedly flattered Yueyao and said, "Don't worry, I'll be fine." Didn't you say that I deserve a better person, and those who want to marry me are lined up at the city gate, why have you forgotten what you said now? ”
The two eventually separated.
Xiang Wei whispered: "Girl, did you say that Mingzhu really let go?" ”
Yue Yao nodded and said, "I must feel a little uncomfortable in my heart, but give her some time and it will pass." Don't worry, you'll be fine. ”
Xiang Wei was relieved: "I believe in the girl." ”
Yueyao didn't really understand why Xiang Wei was so enthusiastic about this. Yue Yao believed in her eyes, and she could see that Xiang Wei really didn't like Mingzhu very much.
Xiang Wei didn't hide her thoughts, "The girl is right, I don't like Mingzhu." You don't know how bad Mingzhu's temper was before, but now it's better because of the girl. This time, I also did it because of Bai Yi. If Mingzhu marries badly, Bai Yi will also suffer. It is better to cut off the source. ”
Yue Yao smiled.
Yueyao returned to Mafu and asked the porter. The porter said that Ma Chengteng hadn't come back yet, Yueyao went to the main courtyard to find Zhuang Ruolan first, and Ma Peng also came back to tease the two children in the courtyard.
Yue Yao smiled and took out all the gifts she gave to Zhuang Ruolan and her two children. Seeing this, Ma Peng quipped: "Why did Yueyao forget her eldest brother alone?" Should it be punished? The fact that Yue Yao and Mu Qinglian are as famous made Ma Peng very happy, and Ma Peng specially bought a gift for Yue Yao.
Yue Yao smiled: "How can you forget your cousin's gift." I brought back two jars of 60-year-old bamboo leaf green wine from Zuixian Building, and my uncle and eldest brother each had one jar. ”
Ma Peng was a little surprised: "Ah, sixty years of bamboo leaf green is not easy to get, when did the shopkeeper in the Drunken Immortal Building talk so well?" Are you willing to sell such a valuable wine? ”
Zhuang Ruolan snorted, "It's too late to hide such a valuable wine, where will it be sold." This is the light stained with pearls. ”
Yue Yao was also a little tired after a day of shopping, so she got up and said, "Brother, sister-in-law, I'll go back." "It's the first time that Yueyao has been shopping from morning to night, and her bones are about to fall apart.
After Yue Yao bathed and had dinner, she just went out to walk in the yard for a while, and heard Ma Chengteng coming back, and Yue Yao ordered the fine silk to send the wine over.
Ma Chengteng was overjoyed when he heard that it was a sixty-year-old bamboo leaf green wine. He saw the small pot in the hand of the fine silk and asked, "What is here?" ”
Ma Chengteng smelled the aroma of wine, and the whole person was intoxicated, and he was reluctant to drink it when he heard that it was a hundred years of bamboo leaf green wine.
Ma Chengteng learned that Yue Yao also gave a jar of sixty-year-old bamboo leaf green wine to his eldest son, so he hurriedly asked his personal servant to call Ma Peng over, and then asked Ma Peng to hand over the jar of wine.
Yue Yao was surprised: "It's so delicious? ”
Xiang Wei rolled her eyes and said, "A hundred years of bamboo leaf green wine, there are only two jars in the Drunken Immortal Building. Not to mention a thousand gold, you can't buy it for 10,000 gold. Now the prince has opened an altar, and only one altar remains. Even the two jars you want are very rare. If the girl hadn't been angry at that time, you wouldn't have half a jar, and you would have gotten ten years of two jars at most.
Yueyao smiled.
Xiang Wei looked at Yueyao and still practiced calligraphy, and said, "Girl, you are also tired today, so it doesn't matter if you don't worry about this day, rest early!" ”
Yue Yao smiled, what to do or what to do.
Bai Yi followed Mingzhu back to the Hou Mansion, and when she heard that the prince was back, she went to the main courtyard, found a gap, and went out of the Mingxuan Courtyard.
Bai Yi saw Luo Shao and immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Lord Shizi, my subordinates have something to come back to." ”
Ping was surprised, but she knew that Bai Yi's move must be of great importance, so she stood on the side and didn't speak.
Luo Shao's face sank, "Go to the study and talk." "There should be something important about this.
Although Bai Yi's matter crossed the bottom line, because it was not too serious, the steward of the Drunken Immortal Building did not tell Luo Shao at the first time, so Luo Shao still didn't know.
After talking about the study, Bai Yi knelt on the ground and told what happened during the day from beginning to end. Of course, she also said that she had contacted Guan Jingxuan before.
Luo Shao's face turned pale, "What you said is true?" "He is happy to see the family affairs with the Ningguo Mansion. The reason is also as Xiang Wei said, Ning Lixuan is a match for Mingzhu regardless of his family background, appearance and talent, plus Mrs. Jingninghou has always wanted to marry this family business, and Luo Shao knows that Mingzhu has always liked Ning Lixuan, so he has no objection. It's just that he really didn't expect that the people of the Ningguo Mansion would dare to calculate them like this.
Bai Yi said: "What my subordinates say is true. Shizi, his subordinates have overstepped, and please punish Shizi! "Her intentions are good, but if she crosses the line, she crosses the line.
Luo Shao frowned and said, "You just said that today's matter was suggested by Lian Yueyao. Why did Lian Yueyao do this? Did she have some intentions? ”
Bai Yi didn't defend Yue Yao, she just said: "The year before last, the girl asked me to teach Miss Yue Yao martial arts, and I went out with Miss Yue Yao once during that time. ”
Luo Shao felt that this matter had nothing to do with the question he asked, but he also patiently did not interrupt Bai Yi.
Bai Yi told Yue Yao about meeting Ning Lixuan that time, and then told Yue Yao about persuading Zhu to do the same.
Luo Shao sneered, "So, she sees people more accurately than us?" Luo Shao felt that Yue Yao's attitude was very strange, Ning Lixuan behaved very well in front of them, if it weren't for Bai Yi to say, Luo Shao wouldn't have known that Ning Lixuan actually had such a mind. But even Yueyao could see it at a glance, which was very weird.
Bai Yi said: "Lord Shizi, my subordinates are not defending Miss Yueyao, but Miss Yueyao is indeed very sensitive, and she can often see a lot of things from some subtle things, which ordinary people can't compare." What Bai Yi said was actually the observation that Yueyao had cultivated in her past paintings.
Bai Yi saw that Luo Shao didn't speak, and said: "Lord Shizi, Miss Yueyao also suggested that the girl ask Shizi for your opinion, but the girl is thin-skinned and doesn't want to ask you." ”
Luo Shao said coldly: "Mingzhu is not easy to say, why don't you say it." ”
Bai Yi was silent. What she actually said was just that Luo Shao was not the same thing, only talking about the young man's temperament, of course Bai Yi didn't dare to say more.
Luo Shao thought back to Bai Yi's appearance for a while, his anger had dropped by half, and his eyes looking at Bai Yi were not so cold: "How is Mingzhu now?" ”
Bai Yi's heart was relieved, the prince could ask like this, saying that the punishment this time would not be too heavy, "The girl is a little unwilling, this is also due to Miss Yueyao's persuasion three times and twice, this time the incident has little impact on the girl, but it will take a little time to eliminate it all." ”
Luo Shao nodded slightly, and then said: "The death penalty can be avoided, the living crime cannot be escaped, the whipping is twenty, and there will be another time, I will never be spared." ”
Bai Yi didn't have any dissatisfaction, she thought that at least half of her life would have to be taken away this time. Now twenty lashes are given, and such a punishment is already very light.
Mingzhu finished dinner and stayed in the house in a daze. Mingzhu will be depressed for a while, and she will be unwilling for a while, why is her vision so frustrated? How can you fall in love with such a hypocrite who is ruined on the outside! If it weren't for Yueyao, her life would have been ruined.
Mingzhu thought about it a lot, and her head hurt when she thought about it, and when she came back to her senses, she naturally called Bai Yi.
Zhiqin walked over and said, "Girl, Bai Yi is out." ”
Mingzhu remembered Yue Yao's words and stood up suddenly! "Is my brother back, where is my brother now?" Bai Yi is likely to go looking for his brother, Bai Yi is looking for abuse.
