Chapter 12 Chickens Fly and Dogs Jump, Ghosts Cry and Wolves Howl
"It's wonderful that you're so cautious."
Yu Wanning smiled with satisfaction, and then said: "It's just that although you are not a slave, but in the end you are working in the General's Mansion, you and I can be regarded as masters and servants, so you can not stick to these small sections, moreover, I don't want outsiders to know what I tell you, you stand outside, when I tell you, I have to speak hard, one is tired, and the other is afraid that someone with a heart will listen to it and chew the root of the tongue elsewhere, although I Yu Wanning sits upright, but I am not happy to let irrelevant people listen to the root of the wall." β
Zhiqi changed her clothes and came over, and Yu Wanning's last two words happened to reach her ears, and her face was blue and white for a while.
When Yu Wanning saw her come in, a hint of ridicule flashed on the corner of her lips, and she looked at a snack on the tableβthis was put up by Zhiqi without permission when she was not there.
"A few days ago, I heard the people in my aunt's yard chew the root of the tongue, saying that the second sister has been a picky eater recently, and the snacks sent to her room every day always say that the food is tasteless, and even the plates are thrown out of the door, I see that the plate of almond crisp you brought over today is good, you will send it to the second sister, and say that I sent her to eat."
"Uh...... Yes, the slave and the maid will go. β
Zhiqi was already uncomfortable at this time, but she could only endure it desperately, not daring to show anything unusual.
She looked at the plate of snacks on the table, bit the front end and came in, and immediately left impatiently, with the wind under her feet, as if she didn't dare to escape without delay.
Yu Wanning looked at Zhiqi's back as if she was burning her P-shares, the corners of her lips hooked slightly, and she didn't pay attention to her anymore.
This kind of jumping clown doesn't have to think too much about it.
So he retracted his gaze and glanced at Zhao Qi, who was still hesitating at the entrance of the room: "Come in, I tell you something to do as soon as possible." β
"Yes."
Hearing Yu Wanning say this, Zhao Qi no longer hesitated, and walked in, but he was still standing three steps away from Yu Wanning, so he didn't step forward anymore.
Yu Wanning just smiled when she saw this, and then ordered Mo Li: "You go and take out all the silver in our room." β
"Yes."
Although Mo Li didn't know what Yu Wanning was going to do, she did it immediately.
Looking at the silver in his hand, Yu Wanning silently calculated in his heart, it should be about the same.
So he looked up at Zhao Qi: "You take out all this silver, buy a set of utensils and some medicinal materials, I prepared the list early in the morning, you just buy it according to the order." β
Xue Jing listened to the laundry as soon as he came back, and without waiting for instructions, he hurriedly went to the table in front of the window and took two lists and handed them to Zhao Qi.
Zhao Qi is also a person who is familiar with literature and ink, he only glanced at it, and his face showed a slightly strange and surprised look, but it was only for a moment, and it quickly returned to normal.
"Yes, the little one will do it right away."
"Aren't you asking me what I'm going to do with these things?" Yu Wanning looked sideways at Zhao Qi, with an unclear smile in his eyes.
"Miss ordered it, the little one just needs to run errands, and there is no need to ask." Zhao Qi replied.
This guy is really a wonderful one.
Yu Wanning felt a burst of appreciation in her heart, doing more and asking less, she really picked up the treasure.
However, although she was happy in her heart, she didn't show much on her face, and just asked Moli to give the silver to Zhao Qi.
Zhao Qi glanced at the silver handed over by Mo Li, and estimated it in his heart before saying, "It shouldn't be necessary to buy so much silver to buy these things." β
He took out a few taels of silver and handed them back to Mo Li: "These are almost enough, if there is any leftover, the small ones will be returned with a lot of money." β
Seeing this, Yu Wanning's eyes flashed with a hint of appreciation and self-satisfaction-I really didn't see the wrong person.
But she still said: "Take one or two more, your clothes are too old and too thin, buy a dress to wear." β
"No need."
Zhao Qi blocked Mo Li's hand over the silver and said: "The little one has rough skin and thick meat, and he doesn't pay much attention to dressing, and he doesn't feel cold when he wears these, so he doesn't have to break the bank, if Miss has no other instructions, the little one will go out." β
After he finished speaking, he glanced up at Yu Wanning, and saw that she didn't tell anything else, so he shook it and withdrew.
"This man is very upright."
Mo Li said with a smile, and carefully put away the remaining little silver taels.
Although Yu Wanning's clothes and food are all enshrined in the house, Aunt Sun has been deducted a lot recently, and if she doesn't have some private money in her hand, her life will not be easy.
Yu Wanning naturally understood what Mo Li was thinking, so he smiled and said, "Let's save some money these days, and after a few days, life will be easy." β
Although Mo Li and Xue Jing didn't understand the meaning of Yu Wanning's words, they both nodded their heads.
Both of them understood Yu Wanning's habits, so they stopped talking much, took the military book they had just borrowed from Yu Deling's study and gave it to Yu Wanning, and then re-brewed the newly delivered tea, and served in silence, so as not to disturb Yu Wanning's reading.
For a while, the entire Begonia courtyard was quiet.
Compared with the quiet Begonia Courtyard, the Cuiliu Courtyard where Aunt Sun and her two children live is another scene of chickens flying and dogs jumping, ghosts crying and wolves howling.
Wang Anping was whipped by Yu Wanning in public today, losing face in front of the people in the house, ashamed and angry, and was complaining in front of Aunt Sun at this time, asking her to come forward to make the decision, to take this evil breath for herself, and to protect her face.
Aunt Sun listened, her face was embarrassed for a while, although Yu Wanning is a junior, but after all, she is the daughter of the General's Mansion, although she is an elder, she is just a concubine and aunt, if you really want to talk about it, she really can't afford to provoke Yu Wanning.
It's just that being swept away by a junior like this, Aunt Sun is still very angry in her heart.
She has been in charge of the family affairs of the mansion for many years, and Mrs. Zhengmu Yu has always been good-natured, so Aunt Sun slowly gave birth to the illusion that she was the mistress of the general's mansion.
And today Yu Wanning scolded Wang Anping in public, but it was like a slap in the face of Aunt Sun, which dispelled the hallucinations she had given birth to in the past few years, and also made her sober up a lot.
As the saying goes, beating a dog depends on the owner, but Yu Wanning tore Wang Anping's face like this, in fact, she was tearing her aunt's face, so that she suddenly understood that no matter how she was in charge of family affairs, she was still just a concubine and aunt, and her children were just concubines and children who were not taken seriously.
Mrs. Ye Shiyu is the serious hostess of this great general's mansion, and the daughter of the family is the daughter of the concubine, and her status is noble, which is not comparable to herself.
Wang Anping sat on the side, and the maid beside Aunt Sun helped him bandage the wound on his face, and he inhaled cold air in pain.
I didn't notice for a while that Aunt Sun's heart had turned so many thoughts.
He endured the pain, and urged Aunt Sun to vent for himself from time to time.
