"Alright. With his face trimmed, he went with me to buy jewelry. ”

"This Xiangbao Zhai sells the best jewelry in Yuzhou City. Although the materials used to make jewelry are not as expensive as those used in the capital. But the advantage is that the style is novel and good-looking. The conditions of our Yuzhou City are not as good as those in the capital, so naturally we have to go to other places to find ingenuity. ”

"Here we are."

Xiangbao Zhai is not far from Cai Diexuan at all, and it is only a few steps away.

Most of the jewelry in this store is made of jade and gold wire.

The price is fair.

That is, anyway, if Tan Qingqing came by himself, he would definitely not be able to pay for them.

Aunt Mei chose a set of jade hairpins for Tan Qingqing, and shook them with the jade. Just these two or three pieces of jewelry, it cost fifteen taels.

It seems that in the city of Yuzhou, jewelry is the most expensive.

The average person can't afford to wear it.

"Almost, come back to Tao Mansion with me. Remember, if there are a few cheap hooves looking for your fault, don't give me cringe. Whatever they mock you, you can taunt back. After all, the bloodline of my Shen family is not bad. There's no reason to be crushed by those cheap hooves. ”

Tan Qingqing, "......"

Okay, she tried.

The group took the car and arrived at Tao Mansion. I was finally able to see the concubines that Aunt Mei said in her mouth, and the children born to the concubines.

Master Tao married two concubines, and these two concubines gave birth to a son and three daughters.

Concubine Tao Yu, concubine Tao Tan'er, Tao Shan'er, Tao Wan'er.

Nominally, these concubines and concubines are all raised by Shen Meilan. But in fact, Tao Shan'er and Tao Wan'er were both raised by Aunt Liu herself.

Although Aunt Liu did not give birth to a son, she was especially loved by Master Tao. Master Tao allowed her to raise the two girls she gave birth to.

So these two cheap hooves are the least liked by Shen Meilan.

Tao Shan'er and Tao Wan'er stood at the door of Tao's mansion, watching Shen Meilan come back, and pretending to salute respectfully, "Mother." ”

Shen Meilan didn't even look at them squarely.

However, when Tao Yu and Tao Tan'er saluted, Shen Meilan gave them a little look.

"The family feast is done, right?"

"Mother, it's done."

"Okay, I see. Go and prepare a clean room for my precious niece to live in. Remember, be the best. If you dare to be lazy, I will ask you. ”

Tao Yu glanced at Tan Qingqing and said that he knew.

And Tan Qingqing didn't see her cousin and cousin in the crowd, so she asked Shen Meilan, "Auntie, why didn't you see your cousin and cousin?" ”

"Your cousin went to study in the Shen Mansion. As for your cousin......" Speaking of this, Shen Meilan glanced at Tao Shan'er and Tao Wan'er fiercely.

"In the ancestral hall."

Ancestral temple? Generally, only on the day of ancestor worship, everyone will go to the ancestral hall. If it's in normal times...... That is, I made a mistake and was punished, and then I went to the ancestral hall.

Tan Qingqing looked at Shen Meilan's angry glaring at Tao Shan'er and Tao Wan'er again, and she had already figured out something.

"Then aunt, I'll go to the ancestral hall first and visit my cousin."

Shen Meilan thought that in the Tao Mansion, the houses prepared for Tan Qingqing had not yet been completely tidied up, so she felt that it would be good to let Tan Qingqing go over and talk to Tao Manning and Tao Ruoling first.

That's it.

But who knew that as soon as she nodded, Tao Shan'er and Tao Wan'er, the two cheap hooves, spoke.

"Mother, as soon as I look at this young girl, I feel that I love it tightly. Otherwise, let's bring the young girl in. ”

Who knows, Shen Meilan sneered.

"You two cheap hooves, can you still hide your kindness? I haven't even settled accounts with you two about yesterday. How? Hit the idea on my niece's head today? ”

In the face of Shen Meilan's angry reprimand, these two girls were also not afraid.

"Mother, look at what you said. How dare Wan'er and I? The young girl is so good-looking, it's too late for me to like Wan'er. ”

This person has made up his mind to himself, and Tan Qingqing naturally won't endure it.

So she tugged at Shen Meilan's sleeve and said, "Then let these two sisters take me in to have a look." ”

Shen Meilan was still a little uneasy, "Aunt ordered someone to take you there, it's the same." ”

"Auntie's people, don't you be busy with the family dinner?" Tan Qingqing said, and winked at Shen Meilan.

Since Tan Qingqing is so insistent, it is not good for Shen Meilan to say anything more.

Shen Meilan patted Tan Qingqing's hand, "Although face is important." But if you are bullied, you have to come and complain to your aunt immediately. ”

"Okay."

Saying goodbye to her aunt, Tan Qingqing followed this group of concubines and concubines of Tao Mansion to the backyard of Tao Mansion.

But obviously, Tao Shan'er and Tao Wan'er didn't think about taking Tan Qingqing to the Tao family ancestral hall at all.

"It's kind of like it. It's a pity that when you came back from outside the city, we had already sent a maid to the city gate to see it. You're not a noble girl at all, not to mention ugly, you're black. Moreover, it is as stupid as Tao Man Ning Tao Ruoling! ”

"I don't know we called you here to humiliate you?"

"Without Shen Meilan protecting you, I think you can take a few steps in Tao Mansion!"

They were in a porch at this time.

And on the edge of the porch is the corner of the courtyard.

There is a water tank and a water scoop in the corner of the yard.

"Tie her up for me, I'm going to use water to clean her face!"

Tan Qingqing didn't resist, but when Tao Shan'er splashed water with a scoop, she couldn't splash herself.

"Tao Shan'er, you splash water on time!" Tao Wan'er shouted beside her.

Because of Tao Shan'er's water, it was all splashed on Tao Wan'er!

Tao Wan'er didn't know how Tao Shan'er splashed it!

The accuracy is so bad!

But Tao Yu and Tao Tan'er said on the side, "It's almost done!" Hurry up and send people to the ancestral hall, don't make trouble here again! If you let your mother know, you won't be able to eat and walk around! ”

Tao Shan'er laughed at Tao Tan'er's timidity, "You are afraid of Shen Meilan, but I am not afraid." Isn't she the noble daughter of the Shen family? But the feathered phoenix is not as good as a chicken, I still understand this truth. Although their Shen family is still an official now, the court is gone, and no one knows if this official can continue to be an official! ”

"As for our young girls...... Oh, a poor girl from the countryside. Without this skin, how much can you jump? ”

Seeing that Tao Shan'er was going to continue to pour water on herself.

Tan Qingqing didn't bother to play with her anymore.

directly snatched Tao Shan'er's water scoop with his backhand and pressed the person into the water tank. Holding the scoop, she poured the water from the water tank from her neck and down her head.

"Say I'm a poor girl from the country? Then where can you be rich without this skin on your own face? ”

"If you have the ability, don't wear this golden agate hairpin, don't apply this incense powder."

Tan Qingqing washed the white powder off Tao Shan'er's face.

"You still say I'm dark-skinned, I don't think you're much better. There are so many acne, and the skin is so rough. I don't know, I think you plow the land all year round and do rough work! ”

Tan Qingqing did not mean to be sarcastic about doing rough work and having a low status.

But Tao Shan'er definitely can't accept the fact that she is poor.

Sure enough, when Tan Qingqing said this about Tao Shan'er, Tao Shan'er's angry body was shaking.

But because he was still pressed in the water tank by Tan Qingqing, he couldn't struggle, he couldn't get up, so he could only increase the range of struggle, so that Tan Qingqing could quickly let go.
