Chapter 271: Posts
As soon as the lid of the black-red box was opened, it revealed a flood of colors.
Bai Shao was stunned to look at the various colored gems covered with the box, and suddenly understood why the box was so heavy.
I also understand the value of this box.
She casually pinched out a piece of valuable pomegranate red from the box, looked at it in disbelief, and finally looked at Ruan, who was also full of shock. "Mother, this is ......" Bai Shao asked with some hesitation, "Where did this gem come from?" ”
Ruan Shi was also shocked, but she knew more than Bai Shao, so after a moment of silence, she said softly, "It may be your grandmother's dowry, she has always cared about the affairs of the backyard all these years, and even Zhongfeng is controlled by Aunt Lu, and what her mother has in this life can only be her dowry." ”
"And ......," Ruan pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "The Zhao family used to be one of the richest businessmen in Yanjing, and it was only in the past few decades that someone has slowly entered the officialdom. And it's no wonder that Aunt Lu came to grab this box, with my understanding of the Zhenguo Mansion, this box is worth half of the net worth of the Zhenguo Mansion. ”
With such wealth, who is not tempted, who is not blushing.
But Bai Shao felt a little hot at the same time, but her grandmother, who was only a one-sided relationship, actually gave her such an important thing, for a while, her heart was a little uneasy, and she closed the box and wanted to return the thing to the Zhao family.
As a result, Ruan Shi took her hand and said softly, "Silly child, your grandmother has only one daughter in her life, as for your two uncles, they are just concubines, presumably my mother is also unwilling to share things with everyone, so she tried her best to give things to you, who would have thought that when your grandmother met for the first time, she would give such a big gift?" I may have thought wrong about Aunt Lu before, she may not know what her mother gave you, she just came to ask for it out of greed. Otherwise, why would she have only brought two daughters-in-law and came over. ”
Ruan's words sounded quite reasonable, and Bai Shao couldn't make up her mind for a while, so she had to lock the box and hide it in the deepest part of Ruan's dresser.
Yanjing, somewhere in a house on Xuanwu Street.
Du Xiaoyue stood in front of the second prince with an aggrieved face, and choked up, "Your Highness, I really didn't mean to do it today, I just can't see her like that...... Who knows if it's true or not, kissing or not is just relying on Gu Qingfan and Ruan's two mouths, I have personally investigated her identity, she is an ordinary peasant girl in Xieyang County, what qualifications does she have to be so star-studded, even the eldest princess takes the initiative to talk to her, why should she ......"
"Just rely on Gu Qingfan to admit her." Yan Kuo frowned gloomily and said coldly, "Du Xiaoyue, I warn you now, don't have any thoughts about her, don't let you touch her, otherwise you should know my methods." ”
"Your Highness!" Du Xiaoyue's eyes widened, and she said in disbelief, "Your Highness, you have to think twice before you act, you can't say that she is the smoke released by the Gu family, she may not be the real young lady of the Gu family." ”
"You don't have to worry about that." Yan Kuo pursed her lips, turned her head and glanced at Du Xiaoyue solemnly, "Remember my words, you are not allowed to touch her." ”
After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and left here.
Only Du Xiaoyue was left standing in place with a hateful face, and after a long time, she got out of the house, boarded her carriage, then closed her eyes, and instructed the maid beside her, "Go and post to Miss Gu, just say that I want to ask her to see the flowers." ”
The maidservant beside her was a little surprised, but she still bowed her head and obeyed the order.
That night, Ruan's excuse for Bai Shao's room had not been furnished, so he hugged his daughter again and slept all night.
The next morning, the mother and daughter got up, they were refreshed, and after a simple wash, they went to Zhao's yard to say goodbye to Zhao.
Zhao's mental head was not very good, and he spent most of his time lying in bed, occasionally saying a few words, as if he had taken a lot of effort.
Seeing this, Bai Shao couldn't bear to disturb her, so she retreated from the Zhao family's courtyard with the Ruan family.
As a result, at the place where I beat the Lu family yesterday, I met the Lu family and others again.
Unlike yesterday, today's Lu family brought a lot of maids, and there were many of them, which set off Bai Shao and Ruan's mother very thinly, which made people tremble.
Ruan was a little uneasy, for fear that his daughter would suffer a loss, so he wanted to go back to Zhao's courtyard to avoid the limelight for a while.
Bai Shao grabbed her with her backhand, not only did not let her retreat, but walked over very generously and bowed half a salute to the Lu family.
The reason why he saluted was because the Lu family was an elder, and the reason why he did half a salute was because the Lu family was a concubine, not an elder who was not a serious child.
Therefore, Bai Shao's actions can't find any mistakes, and his actions are even more generous, and he doesn't see any guilt for what he did yesterday, and the fear of today's Lu family.
"You're bold." Lu Shi said with a gloomy face, "You dared to do that to me yesterday, aren't you afraid today?" ”
"Afraid of what?" Bai Shao raised his neck and said, "My grandfather said that he knows what is happening inside and outside the mansion of this town, so I don't believe it, who dares to bully me under the nose of my grandfather." ”
As he spoke, he took Ruan's hand and walked through the crowd with his neck high.
And the Lu family, the Zhou family, the Zhu family, and dozens of maids just watched the two of them walk over, and their backs disappeared from sight.
"You kid, you scared me to death." Ruan Shi patted the back of Bai Shao's hand and complained, "You are really bold, aren't you afraid that she will really beat you?" Even if you can get revenge later, you'll still be beaten. ”
"I'm not afraid." Bai Shao smiled confidently, "Although Aunt Lu is overbearing in this backyard, she is still afraid of her grandfather, and you can see it from yesterday's events, and besides, I'm not afraid of a real fight." ”
"Can you beat those dozens of people?" Ruan asked with some hesitation.
"I can run." Bai Peony is a serious way.
After a moment, the two of them looked at each other, and they both laughed.
When the people in the big kitchen brought breakfast, and the two of them were simply full, the old mother of the Zhenguo Mansion came over, saying that there were several posts for Miss Bang Qing.
Bai Shao went over and took it, looking through them one by one, there were people she didn't know in front of her, and when she saw the last one, she raised her eyebrows and didn't speak.
"Qingqing, you seem to hate her?" Ruan Shi noticed her mood change and asked hesitantly.
"Of course I hate it." Bai Shao closed the post in her hand, half-lowered her eyes, and said in a low voice, "She reminds me of a lot of bad memories, and when I was an ordinary peasant girl, I was bullied. ”
Speaking, Bai Shao said the things that happened in front of the Jinse Xiuzhuang in a simple and simple word.
Although it has been omitted a lot by Bai Shao, Ruan Shi still listened to it with tears in her eyes, if it wasn't for Bai Shao pulling, she would have rushed out to avenge Bai Shao.
"How can she bully me like this!" Ruan Shi said with red eyes, "You are the granddaughter of the Zhenguo Mansion and the daughter of the Gu family, why are you bullied like this, why!" ”
"Mother, it's okay." Bai Shao carefully soothed Ruan's emotions, "I heard that my brother's spear made her lie on the bed for many days, which can be regarded as making her pay, and if I guessed correctly, she should also hate me, otherwise she wouldn't have made this post." ”
But even so, Ruan's still couldn't stop crying, and in the end, Bai Shao had to promise that he would not let Du Xiaoyue go in the future, so Ruan wiped his tears and went to bed to rest a little uncomfortable.
Then, Bai Shao watched the posts there over and over again, until Gu Qingfan came, she handed the post to Gu Qingfan's hand, Gu Qingfan was silent, selected three from them, and told Bai Shao that she could go to these three.
"Why?" Bai Shao asked.
Gu Qingfan didn't give her an answer, just handed her two maids, and then left.
Bai Shao carefully looked at the date written on the post, and found that it happened to be tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow was three days in a row, she was a little crying and laughing in her heart, and at the same time a little helpless.
But fortunately, when she agreed to be Miss Gu's family, she had already guessed that she would deal with these things, so Bai Shao didn't have any fear, but picked out the clothes to wear in the next three days with high morale.
If you want to say that it is easy to make clothes, it will take a lot of time to make beautiful and atmospheric clothes.
Fortunately, the next three days were all ordinary invitations, so after Ruan Shi woke up, he directly took Bai Shao to Bingxin Pavilion to buy a few sets of ready-to-wear clothes, selected a few sets of jewelry, and finally customized several sets of clothes according to Bai Shao's figure before leaving. for a better user experience.
