Chapter 156: A Blank Check

So, five hundred taels became six thousand taels, and the tall and strong man ran out of the pawnshop with a large handful of silver tickets in his hand.

Adhering to the principle of not leaking money, he crumpled the silver ticket like a ball of waste paper and stuffed it directly into his arms, while the remaining pawn ticket was carefully folded in half a few times and carefully pushed into the deepest part of the cuff.

Ruoshui said that he should put away the pawn ticket so that he could redeem it when he had money in the future, so he put it away in a good way.

It's just that if Ruoshui finds out that he actually took that broken brand as 6,000 taels, and whether he has the courage to spend a large amount of interest to redeem it again, that's a story for another time.

At this time, the tall and strong who thought that he had overfulfilled the tasks assigned by his sister, was still complacent and showed off to his godmother and Xiao Yong, and drove the carriage to Fengtong County with a whip in a suspicious interrogation.

……

"White shopkeeper, my young lady is going to go far away, and the cash she brings is not enough, you go to the account room to pay some."

Bai Sulian looked at the pomegranate in front of her, and couldn't help but secretly cry bitter in her heart.

First he occupied her boudoir on the grounds that the guest room was not comfortable enough, and then he drank her men like their own servants, and now they even wanted money. If she hadn't recognized the Xiangfu seal letter in Pomegranate's hand and didn't seem to be a forgery, I'm afraid she would have regarded these two people as liars and reported them to the official to arrest them.

"What? Reluctant? It's just a few hundred taels of silver, is the Bai family so stingy? It's a big deal to repair the book and send it to the master, so that the master can make up the money for you, how about it? ”

Bai Sulian's hesitant pomegranate looked at it. She pursed her lips, sarcasm between her words.

But this is not a matter of reluctance at all, Pomegranate made her choose who to stand with. She gave up Ruoshui and stood on the same front with them, not just to be a companion to eat and drink and give money to the logistics minister. Winning the selection competition is Bai Sulian's ultimate goal.

Lotus Crisp's recipe is incomplete, and she has lost her only reliance if she wants to rely on the shadow of her dead husband, and now she finally grasps an ally with a special status, Bai Sulian wants to make good use of it.

In fact, Ruoshui is not also using the prestige of Baixiang. That's why the couplet contest is so successful, she can, why can't I!

Bai Sulian didn't notice it at all. I have fallen into a strange circle that distorts my three views due to jealousy, and I only blindly imitate and compare, but I don't know that the path of imitation I have chosen has been cut off from the root of the possibility of transcendence.

But no matter what. The original intention of using each other is sound. It's just that because of the gap in status between her and Bai Yarou, she is already at a disadvantage in the exchange of interests. And Bai Yarou was proud of her identity, thinking that everyone should hold her and spoil her, and she didn't have the consciousness to do anything for Ruoshui at all.

Unable to find a suitable opportunity to speak, Bai Sulian could only swallow bitter water in her stomach, she had struggled for so long, seeing that the day of the selection competition was getting closer and closer, she didn't seize the opportunity again. I'm afraid she'll have to wait another year.

Shaohua is fleeting, and she has passed the age of flowers. I can't afford to wait any longer.

So when Pomegranate asked her for money, Bai Sulian no longer looked forward and backward for fear of offending the young lady, so she made a request.

"The second lady wants to use money, and Su Lian should do her best. A few hundred taels of silver is not a small amount for me, but it is not out of reach. It's just that Su Lian still has something to ask for, and I hope that the second lady can look at Su Lian's dedication to face in recent days and give Su Lian a few tips. ”

Do you still know that you have resisted? Pomegranate sighed secretly.

Bai Yarou's brutal temper is not something that ordinary people can bear, this point is very clear in Pomegranate's heart, and the second miss is not Bai Xiang herself after all, she has the protection of Bai Xiang in the capital, she can show off her might, but after leaving the capital, it is not so easy to think about being so unscrupulous.

Especially like Bai Sulian, although she is a relative of the Bai family, she has basically never relied on the power of the Bai family, such an industry that is free from the power of the Bai family has such an obvious momentum of fame, and it should be the object of their Bai family's wooing.

It's normal for such a person to be a little arrogant, Pomegranate doesn't expect to be able to rely on her identity to suppress her for a long time, so Bai Sulian will have a request, and Pomegranate has long been mentally prepared. It's just that I didn't expect this Bai Sulian's temperament to be really weak, and she has been bullied for so many days, so she slightly revealed a little bit of wanting to resist, and her tone was so tactful and vague, it seemed that she was overly worried.

But no matter what, now is not a good time to tear your face, Pomegranate pretended to take Joe's dry cough twice, and then raised her chin high, and asked arrogantly.

"Whatever you want, just say it. Miss is the most benevolent, as long as the request is reasonable, she will definitely let you get your wish. ”

This made Pomegranate feel very disgusting when she said this, but fortunately, Bai Sulian did not show any unusual expression, hesitated slightly, and then put forward her request.

In fact, the so-called requirement is to hope that Bai Yarou can show up in the kitchen selection competition with a posture of supporting Huadianfang, so that those teams who are determined to choose to succumb due to the coercion of Bai Xiang. However, this was originally an extremely simple thing for Bai Yarou, but because of the particularity of this stage, it became completely impossible to do it.

She ran out secretly, and appeared with such fanfare, doesn't this make it clear to tell people about her escape route!

"This ...... Are there any other requirements besides this? ”

Pomegranate felt that her face was a little feverish, she had just finished bragging with others, and she couldn't even meet the simplest request when she twisted her face, which had to be a shameful move~

“…… Uh, for the time being, not for the time being. ”

Bai Sulian didn't notice the embarrassment of Pomegranate, and thought that when did this pair of self-centered masters and servants become so enthusiastic, and they didn't meet one request, so they had to ask the family to mention a few more.

However, Bai Sulian is not the master of beating snakes and sticks, so naturally she will not take the opportunity to make more requests, but her honest performance really gives Pomegranate a headache.

Not for the time being, which means that there is no place to turn around, Pomegranate stiffly tightened the corners of his mouth that couldn't help but twitch, and forced a smile.

"The white shopkeeper is really polite, so when will the tryouts be held?"

"Ah~ On the fifth day of next month, the pomegranate girl means that the second lady can help me with this?"

Bai Sulian was very surprised, after hesitating for so long, she achieved her goal so easily, she knew it was so, why bother in the first place~

"Haha~ I said, my young lady is the most benevolent~"

Pomegranate snorted haha, secretly happy in his heart, the imperial court reinforcements are coming in the next few days, who will have the time to be a "town house beast" for you at that time, let's wait for the time being, and then talk about getting the money! (To be continued......)
