Chapter 35: Rouge
Listening to Hongying's question, Wen Yisui lowered his head and thought, isn't this nonsense, if you talk to the Bai family about it, then how can I get the money and how can I escape?
After bowing his head and complaining for a while, Wen Yisui raised his head and was about to explain, but Wen Yiyu spoke, and what he said was as ugly as ever: "Are you dumb?" I didn't hear the red warbler asking you, why didn't you speak? ”
"I haven't spoken because I'm embarrassed to say, but since you're so eager to know why, I'll tell you, because the owner of the backyard is your mother, not mine, and whatever you want, she will do everything possible to find it and send someone to your table.
And I, a concubine who is nothing, I am very self-aware, it is good to be able to eat and drink enough, I dare not expect anything else, who called me not as good as you. Wen Yisui was also angry, and said some of the words in his heart through anger.
Such an answer sounds a bit rebellious, but it is very convincing, after all, the truth is as ordinary Wen Yisui, Bai is not her mother, and it is indeed impossible for her to give her whatever she wants, so Wen Yiyu and Hongying both believed her statement.
Especially Wen Yiyu, not only convinced of this, but also didn't even get angry because of that paragraph, she said proudly: "No way, my life is indeed a hundred times better than yours, but you are not bad now, you are also the concubine of our Wen Mansion, and you are also a sparrow flying on the branch and becoming a phoenix compared to before."
"So you said so much, can you help me?" Wen Yi said unceremoniously, she can be considered to understand, since she still talks nonsense and can't do things well, so why does she continue to show weakness? You can say whatever you want, anyway, now as long as she doesn't take the initiative to die, she just simply quarrels with her, and the Bai family shouldn't dare to do anything about her.
Unexpectedly, a door between the two was opened.
In the face of Wen Yisui's seemingly unreasonableness, Wen Yiyu was unusual, she didn't shout or drop things, but looked at her with a frown, as if she didn't know her.
After looking at it for a long time, Wen Yi felt hairy in her heart, she held back the fear in her heart, pretended to be like a nobody, and continued: "It's okay if you don't help, anyway, with my appearance and status, whether it is here or in the capital, the marriage partner will not be much better, as for you, don't blame me for not reminding you when the time comes."
After saying this 'heartfelt words', Wen Yisui shouted Xiaocao's name. "Xiaocao, come out to see off guests."
At this time, Wen Yiyu, who had not spoken, finally spoke, and said something that made Wen Yisui very enjoyable.
It's dark, there is fluorescence shining in the dark night, it is the dance of fireflies, above the dance of fireflies is a piece of starlight and moonlight, Wen Yi looks at the fireflies flying in the sky at any time, and sometimes looks at the twinkling stars in the sky, and the mood is extremely comfortable.
"Miss, how did you get the second lady to send you money?" After cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks on the table, Xiaocao moved a stool and sat down beside Wen Yisui, and asked curiously.
"How? Didn't you hear what I said to her when you were hiding in your room before? Wen Yi looked at the flying fireflies, a little absent-minded.
"I heard it, but Xiaocao still doesn't understand, what Miss said at the time, it stands to reason that the second miss should be very angry when she hears it, but why is she not only not angry, but also told Miss that things don't need to be taken out to sell, she gives money to buy things for Miss?" Xiaocao is still confused, she doesn't understand why the second lady, who has always been arrogant and domineering, is suddenly so easy to speak.
"Xiaocao, you're really stupid." Wen Yicasually turned his head to look at Xiaocao, and said angrily.
"How did you 'eavesdrop' and only half of it didn't listen to the other half? It is said that my ugliness will affect her choice of husband, and she is afraid that her bright future will be ruined in my hands, so giving me some money now is considered an investment, understand? ”
"Besides, I didn't say before that I wanted to ask for her money for nothing, it's just that she didn't accept those two boxes of gifts." Wen Yisui pretended to be innocent and said, still excited in his heart.
Xiaocao didn't say a word, she actually wanted to ask again what "investment" meant, but after thinking about it, she gave up.
"Miss, why did you give all the birthday gifts that Master Bai gave you last year to that Miss Shu?" After going back, the red warbler thought for a long time, and finally couldn't help but speak.
"There's no why, it's just that I pity her a little for the sake of her telling the truth." Wen Yiyu leisurely drank the new tea that had just been brewed, this tea was brought to her by Bai Shi in the afternoon, and she was still there at the time.
"But, but......" The red warbler was in a hurry, and her speech was stumbling.
"But what?" Wen Yiyu put down the teacup with obvious impatience in her tone.
Hongying knew that she was impatient, but it was fourteen taels of gold, fourteen taels of gold, and most of the people in the southern city of this continent could not earn that money in their lifetime, so she had the courage to continue: "Miss, what you gave out was fourteen taels of gold, not silver."
She was about to cry without tears, this fourteen taels of gold was Miss last year's fourteenth birthday, Master Bai asked people to send it to his own miss, but now it was sent out by Miss so casually, Mrs. knows, will say her.
"Don't worry, when we go to the capital, we will have more gold, what is just fourteen taels of gold." Wen Yiyu looked indifferent.
It may be that she has been used to eating and drinking since she was a child, so Wen Yiyu has no concept of how much money is, in her opinion, it is already very good to buy thousands of buns for fourteen taels of gold.
Hongying was almost angry to death by this sentence, Wen Mansion is not making gold, how can there be more gold when you get to the capital? But she didn't dare to say this to Wen Yiyu, and planned to persuade her from other aspects so that she could get the gold back, but Wen Yiyu didn't give her a chance to speak.
"Hongying, if you ask someone to tell Sister Hua'er, just say that I got some good tea from my mother, let her come and taste it." Wen Yiyu stood up and walked to the door, looking at the moonlight in the sky, feeling comfortable.
"Miss, let's just ask the third miss to send some tea to the past, this big night, let's not bother the third miss to come over." She's coming, how can she persuade her?
"Are you Miss or am I Miss?" Wen Yiyu was angry, turned around and said angrily to the red warbler behind him, and the scolded red warbler lowered his head and didn't dare to speak.
"I told you to let people go and call the third lady over, you can go quickly, why are you talking so much nonsense here? Believe it or not, I'm going to let you go to the laundry room and be a laundry maid right now? Wen Yiyu glared at the red warbler angrily, if she didn't call her good sister over, how could she show off her night pearl with her?
"The red warbler knows that it is wrong, the red warbler will go to the third lady now to convey the meaning of the young lady." The red warbler lowered her head and retreated, Xiao Tao came in not long after, Wen Yiyu always had to be taken care of by her side.
When Hongying went to Wen Yihua's place, she was alone and didn't know what she was doing, after Hongying relayed Wen Yi's words, Wen Yihua only said one sentence: "You wait a minute, I'll go in and change my shoes."
When Wen Yihua came out again, Hongying noticed that she not only changed her shoes, but also changed a pair of earrings, the previous pair of ordinary silver earrings were removed, and a pair of thumb-sized pearl earrings were hung on both ears, making Wen Yihua look a little more extravagant.
Maybe it's because the volume of the pearls is a little bigger, and Wen Yi's paintings are constantly moving, the eye-catching pearls pull her earlobes down and down, and the red warblers are worried all the way, will these earrings crack the earlobes of the third lady?
She wanted to remind her, but then she thought about it carefully, and felt that it was better not to open this mouth, because she thought that it might be a ...... between the two sisters Comparisons? It was for this reason that the young lady of her family invited her over in the evening.
After the red warbler took the people and left, it was the less intelligent Xiao Tao who stayed with Wen Yiyu.
As soon as Xiao Tao saw Wen Yihua walking in from outside, she said to Wen Yiyu excitedly: "Miss, the third miss is here, hurry up and take out your night pearl to let the third miss open her eyes."
Wen Yiyu didn't think there was anything wrong with this, she immediately walked out of the room with her night pearl in her arms, and when she saw Wen Yi's painting for the first time, she immediately noticed her pair of earrings, and her mood was suddenly not good, but after looking down and seeing the night pearl in her hand, she smiled like a flower again, completely ignoring Wen Yihua's extremely ugly face.
"My sister is here." Wen Yiyu sat down with the night pearl in his hand and continued: "I just got good tea from my mother today, and I want to call you over to drink tea together and enjoy my night pearl together."
"Don't stand there stupidly, come over quickly, wait for the tea to cool down, it won't taste good." Wen Yiyu saw Wen Yihua standing motionless, so she hurriedly beckoned her over.
That's the gift that the old guy gave her? Hehe, it's really big, Wen Yihua looked at the night pearl in Wen Yiyu's hand with a smile, at that moment she felt that the pair of pearl earrings on her ears was particularly ironic, she thought she was going to go to the capital, she should be no different from her, or even if there are still differences, it is impossible to have a huge difference like before.
I didn't expect that all this was just her wishful thinking, she was still the same she, the one who had been ignored.
If she could, she would like to take off the earrings now, put them in the corner, and then take them out when she stood on top of her head, and give them to her like a poor beggar.
"Sister Hua'er, why don't you just smirk when you speak, are you also shocked by my night pearl? Also, after all, it is so big and bright, it is a rare thing in the world, unlike your pair of earrings, although it is also quite precious, but compared to the rare treasures in my hand, it is still not enough to see. Wen Yiyu exaggeratedly held the night pearl in his hands and circled in place.
Wen Yihua's anger that she couldn't bear burned again, but her endurance has always been good, so she didn't explode on the spot, but continued to maintain the hypocritical smile on her face, and said: "Night Pearl is a beauty, my sister is so beautiful, she deserves it."
Wen Yihua knew Wen Yiyu very well, and every word she said spoke to the latter's heart, and when she saw the latter take the bait, she continued to say: "Sister, if you want to continue to be beautiful, remember to use the rouge I gave you."
