The one who laughed at Shang Qipeng in public was his second brother Shang Qiping, who was born to the merchant concubine Zhou.

Shang Qipeng's face was pale, and he turned to look at Shang Qiping with some hesitation, "Second brother, what is your intention in deliberately misinterpreting my meaning like this?" I just casually praised Miss Ye, did it make you uncomfortable? I think you really think about other people. ”

Shang Qiping didn't refute, walked up to Ye Yun'er with a red face, bowed slightly, and said with his eyebrows fluttering: "Shopkeeper Ye is such a beautiful woman who is so beautiful and intelligent, is there anything wrong with many people admiring her?" I admit it, I admire Shopkeeper Ye very much, and I like it in my heart, but you don't dare to admit it, big brother. ”

Shang Qipeng knew that his second brother had always had what he wanted, and he had to compete with himself.

Unexpectedly, in terms of women, he is not far behind.

He couldn't help but snort coldly, "Second brother, aren't you afraid that Lord Xiao Mu will blame you?" ”

"What am I afraid of, I am not friends with him." Shang Qiping was a little forceful and reasonable, "It's the eldest brother who calls you a brother to others, and you still come to seduce others, don't you read the books of sages and sages, and don't you know the truth that a brother's wife can't be taken away?" ”

"You ......" Shang Qipeng was extremely angry, but there were so many people around, he didn't want his family ugliness to be publicized, so he had to endure it.

Ye Yun'er watched the two brothers of the merchant "fighting for the wind and jealousy" in front of her, and they started a war of words, but they felt extremely bored.

She was even more disgusted with Shang Qiping's foul language and was unwilling to deal with him.

When Shang Qiping was about to come forward to talk to her, she turned around and went to greet the other guests.

Shang Qiping touched his nose, raised his eyebrows and said to Shang Qipeng as if laughing at himself: "Look, if people have Xiao Mu, where will they pay attention to us peddlers and pawns?" Don't be too pretentious. ”

Shang Qipeng flicked his long sleeves and stepped aside.

"It's really unbelievable that ugly monster who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to come to this kind of place!"

Shang Xiaoqian, who was next to Shang Qiping, stared at a figure in front of her, and said in a harsh voice.

Shang Qiping looked over and saw that she was really talking about Shang Rong'er, the eldest lady of the merchant, and shook his head helplessly, "There are so many people here, why do you only pay attention to her?" It's really a natural pair of enemies. ”

"I just don't like her, what's the matter?" Shang Xiaoqian said as a matter of course, "I look prettier than her, and I am more talented than her, but it's a pity." Just because I am a concubine and she is a concubine, everyone only admires her and despises me, and even my father blindly protects her...... Thinking of this, I'm just not convinced! ”

Immediately afterwards, she glanced at her second brother again, "Aren't you the same?" If you have nothing to do, you can find some anger for Shang Qipeng, you deserve to let your father always scold you. ”

Shang Qiping thought of this, and his heart was also unbalanced, but he was helpless, "It's fate, what can you change?" ”

Shang Qiping said, moving his gaze to the warblers and swallows upstairs, searching for the woman he liked, and the lost brilliance was gradually replaced by excitement and greed.

"I don't believe in fate." Shang Xiaoqian said and walked towards Shang Rong'er.

Gu Ze was helping to serve the tea and water in front, and when he raised his eyes, he suddenly stopped the movement in his hand.

He saw a woman shyly and timidly bowing her head slightly, and was about to walk to the place where the women gathered on the second floor.

This woman is not very beautiful, but her eyes are watery, sparkling, and moving, which makes people recall her softness and kindness......

Isn't this the last time I saw the young lady at the begging festival venue?

"Rong'er, come up!" Someone upstairs greeted her.

Only then did Gu Ze know that she was the eldest lady of the merchant, Shang Rong'er.

Seeing her go upstairs, Gu Ze also walked up with tea, ready to say hello to her.

As soon as he went upstairs, a delicate-looking and beautifully dressed woman stopped him, poured himself a cup of tea he was dragging on, and then left without saying a word.

Gu Ze didn't take this seriously at all, but when he saw the woman holding the tea and walking straight in the direction of Shang Rong'er, he couldn't help but look at her twice.

Could it be that she is also a good friend of Shang Rong'er?

But when the woman walked to Shang Rong'er's side, she stumbled under her feet, and the tea in her hand was poured straight towards Shang Rong'er!

The crowd was taken aback, and some even shouted.

Fortunately, the woman was supported by the person next to her and did not fall.

But Shang Rong'er's clothes were sprinkled with flowers and smoke, but they were so polluted that they couldn't bear to see!

Shang Rong'er only felt that her back was hot, and she gritted her teeth and didn't scream, but she suddenly felt bad.

Her maid walked over to take a look, gasped, and exclaimed, "Oh no, Miss, your clothes are soaked and dyed, and you can't wear them at all!" ”

Shang Rong'er only felt that her face was hot, and she was very embarrassed in front of everyone.

She saw Shang Xiaoqian on the side hooking her lips and sneering, and suddenly understood something.

But although she was angry in her heart, she couldn't have a seizure.

"Oh, big sister, I'm sorry, I accidentally fell, so I spilled the tea on you." Shang Xiaoqian said in a weird manner, without the slightest apology in her tone.

Shang Rong'er bit her lip and froze in place, not knowing what to do.

If she left in such a hurry, this embarrassed appearance should make everyone laugh and lose their big teeth, right?

There was a glittering light from the corners of his eyes, and the dripping and embarrassing appearance made people feel extremely pitiful.

Everyone looked at each other, but no one stepped forward to help.

They have always known that the eldest lady of the merchant is a weak person, and she has been bullied by this second lady since she was a child.

Just because the eldest lady of the merchant passed away at an early age, and no one supported her, the concubine Zhou and her children showed off their power in the merchant, so they were arrogant.

Supporting Shang Rong'er this time will not only not make Shang Rong'er hard, but will make the bullying she suffers in the future even worse.

Gu Ze saw that Shang Rong'er was being bullied and looked very embarrassed, and he was angry for a while.

He had also been humiliated like this, and he couldn't have understood what it was like!

He stepped forward desperately and said unswervingly to Shang Xiaoqian: "You deliberately took the tea over and splashed this Miss Shang, you should apologize to her!" ”

Everyone was shocked again, and they all looked at the shopkeeper.

They had never seen a subordinate dare to accuse a young lady so blatantly?

Although Shang Xiaoqian is a concubine, she is also the second lady of the city's largest merchant!

This shopkeeper is impatient, right?

Shang Rong'er also raised her eyes in surprise and looked at the person who spoke for herself.

Gradually, she finally recognized who he was.

Ye Yun'er was busy entertaining guests downstairs, and when she heard the movement above, she frowned slightly, and walked up without saying anything.
