Chapter Twenty-Five: Giving Up
The more I thought about it, the more excited I became, and it was noon, and when it was time for a nap, Jiu'er quietly sneaked into Liu Yunyan's room while everyone was asleep.
The hairpin was placed on the table, and she tiptoed to the table, but before she could touch the hairpin, she was suddenly caught by a hand covered with red henna.
"Ahh Jiu'er was originally a thief, but when he was caught, he immediately fell to the ground in fright.
"Okay, you make things, you dare to steal your aunt's things, I'm afraid you don't want to live!" Liu Yunyan was wearing a shirt, pointed at Jiu'er and scolded, "What kind of master raises what kind of dog, but it's only been a few hours before I got the idea of this hairpin!" ”
Where had Jiu'er seen such a scene, she only shrank and shook her head, "No, the slave maid just came to see if there was any water in the teapot in the girl's room, and the slave maid didn't want to steal the girl's bracelet." ”
But what kind of person is Liu Yunyan, how can she give up on this, she insisted on dragging Jiu'er to Chu Ruoxi's room.
"What's going on?" Chu Ruoxi was puzzled.
"Heh, you good girl, sneaked into my room to steal hairpins while no one was there, and I caught you."
Chu Ruoxi listened to Liu Yunyan's yin and yang strange voice, and then looked at Jiu'er who was trembling on the ground, and already understood the general situation of the matter in her heart, although she was not satisfied with this Jiu'er, but her face was still light and light, "What big deal do I do, my sister's hairpin is still in your hands now, it's better to turn a big thing into a small thing, I have twenty taels of silver, you can take it back and buy some high-quality rouge." ”
Liu Yunyan looked at Chu Ruoxi, wouldn't it be stupid not to take the money in his heart? She snatched the silver from Chu Ruoxi's hand and glared at Jiu'er viciously before leaving.
Although the matter has been resolved, Jiu'er still didn't dare to get up from the ground, twenty taels of silver, even if you are a maid for a lifetime, you can't earn it.
"I'll help you this time, and you don't have to pay back the money, this is for Shangguan Xun's sake, if there is a next time, you don't want to stay by my side, I don't need a thief to be a maid." Chu Ruoxi finished speaking coldly, sat down at the table and took a sip of tea, she was woken up as soon as she fell asleep, and she was still sleepy at this time.
"Yes, yes, Jiu'er knows that it's wrong, Jiu'er knows it's wrong, thank you girl, for bypassing Jiu'er a lot, Jiu'er won't dare anymore, never dare again."
Jiu'er, who was kneeling on the ground, heard that she didn't want her to pay back, and hurriedly made a promise.
"Alright, you go down first." Chu Ruoxi waved his hand, and Jiu'er retreated.
"Hmph, isn't it just a few dollars, it's twenty taels to reach out, and I haven't touched the hairpin, why should I lose money?" Jiu'er closed the door and muttered in her mouth, already holding a grudge against Chu Ruoxi in her heart.
On the other side, Liu Yunyan took the money but didn't shut up obediently, she came to Du Zhen's room quietly, and saw that the people inside had woken up, so she opened the door and cried.
"Mom, ouch, you have to call the shots for me...... That...... That Chu Ruoxi is simply too deceitful, she instigated her little maid to sneak into my room at noon to steal my hairpin, you also know that it was just given to me by the nobleman yesterday, if he comes again tonight and I bring the hairpin, I ...... I'm really ............ I'm going to die unjustly...... Woowoo woo ......"
Du Zhen's brows furrowed deeply when she heard this, this Chu Ruoxi, who refused to accept guests, did everything against her, and a few days ago she also caused her to lose her favorite antiques, and now there are moths again, she will definitely take this opportunity to kill Chu Ruoxi's sharpness, not so that she understands her identity!
Chu Ruoxi danced for an afternoon, and finally reached sunset, she took off her dancing shoes and was about to pack up and go home, but she didn't expect to be stopped by Du Zhen before leaving.
"Chu Ruoxi, you go and clean up the Baijiao Pavilion yard inside and out tonight and then go back."
Hearing this, Chu Ruoxi looked up at Du Zhen who was standing around her chest not far away, frowned slightly, she turned her head again, and found that Liu Yunyan was standing behind Du Zhen and looking at her proudly.
"Heh" Chu Ruoxi smiled coldly, she knew that this matter was not so easy to solve, and even though she took her money, she still refused to give up.
"I see." Chu Ruoxi put down the things in his hand, didn't say anything for the first time, turned around and took the broom in the corner of the wall and went to the field of Baijiao Pavilion with a good temper.
Du Zhen didn't expect that she would suddenly be so obedient today, and she couldn't say anything if she was going to deal with it in her heart, she glanced at Liu Yunyan in surprise.
Liu Yunyan shrugged, also confused, he was ready to roll up his sleeves and scold, but the other party suddenly remained silent, this slap was destined to fail.
This is Chu Ruoxi's cleverness, if she theorizes with them, Liu Yunyan will definitely talk about the noon matter, and then the people in the entire Baijiao Pavilion will know that her maid's hands and feet are not clean, and even with her will be affected, it is better not to say anything, but to clean the field, she was a maid in her previous life, and she doesn't care about this kind of trivial matter at all.
But in an hour, Chu Ruoxi cleaned up the field, and Du Zhen saw that the field was spotless, and it was not easy to make things difficult, so he had to let people go.
