Chapter 177: Calculation
The rumors of Ruan Mingyu and Li Jingshan's quarrel soon reached Chen Yuwei's ears.
"I'll just say that my cousin is not a slut to Li Jingshan, it's not too fresh for a while, it's just fun." Chen Yuwei smiled proudly, "With her little appearance, if she has a family background or no family background, she wants a backstage without a backstage, I'm afraid she just wants to find a backer." It would be nice if my cousin would wake up sooner, so that I would not have to peel off the skin of that little hoof. β
She told the maid to come and change her clothes, and she was going to visit her aunt and the old lady at Ruan's house. Sakura stepped forward to serve her and asked carefully, "The Li Jingshan that Miss said was only from Minzhou three years ago?" β
Chen Yuwei put on her coat and said casually, "That's right, my cousin brought it back from Minzhou three years ago." By the way, you also came to the capital three years ago, don't you know her? β
When Sakura heard that she came back with Ruan Mingyu, she breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was probably someone with the same name and surname, and hurriedly lied, "I'm from Linchuan, how can I know someone from Minzhou." It just so happened that this name was similar to one of my childhood playmates, so I just had to ask. β
Chen Yuwei didn't care, and took her out and got into the carriage.
----
So, when Ruan Mingyu went back to the Ruan family's mansion at night and asked his father and mother to say goodbye, he was caught by Mrs. Ruan and asked, "What happened to the girl?" Forced people to shave you on the street? β
Ruan Jinghong's face was calm, "But you have abandoned others from the beginning?" I don't want someone to come to the door a year later with a baby in their arms! β
"Dad, mother! What do you think of children? Ruan Mingyu couldn't cry or laugh, and was secretly annoyed. He told himself that he was being watched, and he took the opportunity to hide a scene with Li Jingshan to fool the other party.
Mrs. Ruan's face was also quite ugly, "Miss Chen hasn't married into the Ruan family yet, and this hand is so long." It seems to have been too under-beaten lately. β
Because he was from his wife's mother's family, Ruan Jinghong didn't say much, but comforted him with a few words, "Young people are not sensible, and they are often prone to writing crookedly." It's good to have taught. β
Ruan Mingyu was secretly happy in her heart, Chen Yuwei's trick was self-defeating, and she was afraid that she would completely break her good impression in front of her parents. He muttered, "Children are afraid, those people are not just as simple as ventilating the news. If you don't notice it for a while, let such a person finally enter the Jingbao Pavilion, there will be endless troubles. β
Ruan Jinghong glanced at Ruan Mingyu and said clearly, "Since you are risking your reputation and acting with others, isn't it just to find out all the inner ghosts." You just let it go. β
"Thank you, father!"
"Since your little lover has acted in such a play with you, it seems that he has also put the treasure on you." Mrs. Ruan fiddled with her freshly made nails and asked lightly, "Then how sure is she that she can pass the assessment and enter the Zhen Zhen Hall?" can be said to be good, if she can't enter the Zhen Hall, there will be no place for her in the Tianqiao Hall. β
"I believe in her. It's just that," Ruan Mingyu smiled faintly, "She will enter the Zhen Hall in the future, but she will not go to the Tianqiao Hall." I'm still going to arrange for her to enter the Treasure Hunt! Her skills are destined to be used for the jewelry industry. β
Madame Ruan sat up straight, "Don't you want to marry her?" β
"Yes! But I can wait. When will I be able to break that rule and marry a female craftsman in a dignified manner," Ruan Mingyu's eyes were firm and resolute, "I will marry her with red makeup!" β
"Ridiculous!" Ruan Jinghong put the teacup on a few sides, "This is the Ruan family's family rules, passed down from generation to generation, why are you waiting?" Why did you break this rule? Or do you plan not to marry for the rest of your life? β
"The child only recognizes Li Jingshan alone, and she will not marry in this life." Ruan Mingyuyun said lightly, "She deserves to be treated so sincerely." β
"Isn't it possible to make jewelry when you enter Tianqiao Hall? Why do you have to go to the Treasure Room? "Madame Nguyen is incomprehensible.
"The real craftsman is to serve the vast number of customers, and only the beauty of art rooted in the majority of customers can have long-term vitality. Ah Shan doesn't want to be a flower that dies young. β
Ruan Mingyu paused for a moment and added, "I don't want to either." β
Ruan Jinghong was so upset that he snorted heavily, "Strong words!" Ruan Mingyu, if you were just the youngest child of the Ruan family, I would care if you would marry or not, but now you are the big treasurer of the Jingbao Pavilion. If you don't have any heirs, how can you let the people of the Elders' Pavilion trust you with the care of their huge family business? β
Ruan Mingyu could naturally hear the severity of this remark, if he insisted on not marrying, maybe the position of the big shopkeeper would not be stable.
Ruan Mingyu still smiled firmly, "Since the Ruan family has no shortage of heirs, naturally there is no shortage of heirs to the Jingbao Pavilion. The eldest brother and the second brother will have a future, and when they grow up in the future, I will naturally teach them like I did. β
"Stubborn!" Ruan Jinghong raised his hand and swept the teacup to the ground.
"How did you say it well, and suddenly there was a commotion?" Mrs. Ruan stood up, pulled Ruan Mingyu out of the room, and stood still under the porch.
"Ah Yu, you've been disobedient to that girl a few times recently." Mrs. Ruan looked at her youngest son deeply and said, "The mother knows that she is reluctant to let that woman be wronged, no matter what she wants, you will try your best to give it to her." But have you ever thought about it, you do it. It was precisely her good popularity in the Ruan family that ruined her. β
Ruan Mingyu was stunned and speechless.
"That's all my mother can help you with. Do what you want to do in the future. After Mrs. Ruan finished speaking, she ignored him and turned around and walked into the house.
Ruan Mingyu opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to speak, stood for a while, and finally went out sullenly. His deep eyes were dark, and the corners of his lips were pursed, showing that he was also moved by Madame Ruan's words.
Perhaps, it's time for a more roundabout way, he thought.
----
The peach blossoms in the capital are thankful, and the green peaches in Tianqiao Hall are gradually growing. It's the end of May.
Everyone gathered in front of the bulletin board to check the list of the last selected people for the selection of the Treasure Hall. Sure enough, as expected, Li Jingshan, Ye Qing, Meng Shu and Yuan Yuan were all on the list.
The students congratulated each other in front of the list, and Ye Qing chuckled, "Congratulations to those three, I will return to Taizhou after I finish my studies, so I will not participate in the selection." β
Everyone was stunned, looking at Ye Qing as if they were looking at a monster, Ye Qing didn't care, he waved his hand at everyone, and turned around and walked towards the Lingering Garden.
"Senior brother!" Li Jingshan chased after her, "Are you serious?" β
Ye Qing smiled, "Can this kind of thing be a child's play?" β
Li Jingshan hurriedly said: "But, you gave up such a good opportunity-"
Ye Qing still smiled indifferently, "Everyone has their own ambitions." Taizhou gave birth to me and raised me, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and I am still the most nostalgic there. Besides," the smile on the corner of her mouth softened, "Lan'er has been waiting for me for three years, and I can't let me wait any longer." β
"But, you can take her to Beijing."
"I like Taizhou, I want to go back." Ye Qing smiled, "It has nothing to do with Lan'er. β
ββ¦β¦ You are so obsessed with the craft of jewelry, how can you be willing to give up the treasure hall? Li Jingshan still did not give up on persuading.
"Because I slowly discovered that there is a different life than the art world." Ye Qing smiled faintly, he put his hand on Li Jingshan's shoulder, "Thank you for keeping me, it's just that this choice has nothing to do with right or wrong, I just chose what I think is best." β
Li Jingshan looked at him in a daze, speechless, and said after a while, "...... Then, when you get married, remember to tell me, I'll go ask for a cup of wine. β
"It's a deal!" Ye Qing smiled heartily, suddenly turned his head, and said with a smile, "Please also ask Miss Meng to appreciate the light and come and drink a glass of happy wine." β
Meng Shu stood by the moon gate, her expression was light, and she nodded lightly when she heard the words, "Okay." He turned around and walked into the Orchid Garden.
After a while, Li Jingshan chased after her, "Shushu, you ......" made a start, but she didn't know how to persuade her.
Meng Shu's face was pale, but he smiled calmly, "I'm not sad, he wants to leave, what does it have to do with me." I'm not even sad to qualify...... None of them. β
Li Jingshan couldn't speak, so she only hugged Meng Shu hard and said, "It's okay, you still have me." β
Meng Shu closed her eyes forcefully, and it took a while to open them, pushed Li Jingshan away, and said with a smile, "Silly girl, I said that I was fine." I haven't got it in the first place, so why lose it. β
Li Jingshan sighed, it seemed that in this world, nothing could shake Meng Shu's strings of reason.
----
In the small teahouse on East Street, some people are also talking about Ye Qing's withdrawal from the selection.
"Ye Qing has no ambition, for the fiancΓ©e of his hometown, he has to give up this great opportunity." Fu Jinyu snorted, "It just makes you lose one of your fierce opponents." β
"But the remaining two girls are not fuel-efficient lamps." Yuan Yu'an thought that he was going to compete with two women on the same stage, and he couldn't help but feel aggrieved, but he had to admit that he might not be able to compete with others!
"How you? Can't you compete with two women? Fu Jinyu made no secret of the contempt in his tone.
Yuan Yu'an clenched his fists, but he had to whisper, "Li Jingshan's design is flexible and changeable, Meng Shu's design is elegant and beautiful, and the best selling orders in the Jingbao Pavilion this year are the two of them." The strength should not be underestimated. β
Fu Jinyu snorted and did not speak.
Yuan Yu'an leaned forward and whispered, "Brother Fu said last time, can you pass the Chen family's ......?" β
Fu Jinyu glanced at him and said with a light smile, "Brother Yuan, don't worry, my brother won't scold you." Miss Chen promised to help, which was naturally foolproof. β
Yuan Yu'an's eyes lit up.
Fu Jinyu slowly took out a neatly folded cloth bag and handed it over. Yuan Yuan hurriedly picked it up with both hands, but Fu Jinyu suddenly put his hand back.
"I got this exam question for you. But I don't care what method you use, you must not let Li Jingshan's slut enter the Zhen Zhen Hall. This is not only my request, but also the order of Miss Chen, otherwise," a fierce light flashed in his eyes, "I will definitely want you to look good!" β
"It's nature." Yuan Yu'an agreed, "You and Miss Chen can rest assured, if she goes in, won't I have my place?" We have the same goal. β
Yuan Yuan couldn't wait to open the cloth bag, and his face changed suddenly.
There's nothing in the bag!
