Chapter Twenty-Six: One or Two is Not Less
Lin Qingrong didn't notice Bai Lingyuan's subtle emotions, saw her staggering to the side, hurriedly reached out to support her, and said nervously: "Be careful, don't fall." ”
Why didn't this Daping Road go steady?
Bai Lingyuan thanked him softly, and quietly withdrew his hand, and seemed to continue to walk forward steadily, but in fact, the whole person was slightly farther away from Lin Qingrong, and his face looked two points paler.
Chao Ge's gaze withdrew from Bai Lingyuan's side, raised his hand to support the young lady who was still stupidly leaning over there, and suddenly understood why Lu Chenan wanted to let him serve Lin Qingrong.
It's not to stare at her for any conspiracy.
is to prevent her from being sold by others.
Mo Xiang felt sorry for Bai Lingyuan, and after listening to these two sentences, she always felt that the master and servant were deliberately stimulating Bai Lingyuan, and her tone was not very good at the moment: "Let's call the four girls in the future, the house has always been like this." ”
Chao Ge frowned when he heard this, but he didn't say anything, and responded very softly.
Mo Xiang looked at Chaoge's stinky face, and thought that he would be a hot-tempered person, but he didn't expect to be so calm, but the anger in his stomach was blocked by someone's fluttering response, and he had nowhere to vent, so he could only bury his own head.
The group didn't say anything more until they left the house, and when they saw the carriage, Lin Qingrong immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled at Bai Lingyuan with a sideways face as if he had finally found a breakthrough: "The carriage has been prepared, can you go up first?" ”
Bai Lingyuan still smiled politely and embarrassedly, and thanked Lin Qingrong for his kindness: "Originally, I was supposed to sit together, but I suddenly remembered that my grandmother's magnolia hairpin should be done today, since I have already gone out, I want to go over and get it in person, if there is anything that needs to be changed, I can make it clear on the spot, so as not to send it back and forth, and make my grandmother worry, the young lady might as well take the first step, and Lingyuan will arrive later." ”
After that, Bai Lingyuan bowed slightly to Lin Qingrong, and led Mo Xiang towards the latter carriage that was blocked by Lin Qingrong's carriage.
Chao Ge helped Lin Qingrong to get into the carriage, and Mingde, who had been following behind him, also sat with the coachman, and as soon as the reins were drawn, the carriage drove forward steadily.
Lin Qingrong sat silently for a while, raised his eyes to look at Chaoge, and hesitated: "This fourth girl...... I don't seem to like me very much. ”
is different from Lu Qingyue's dislike for her.
Lin Qingrong couldn't quite express where Bai Lingyuan's subtle and distant hostility came from, and Lin Qingrong felt it when she sat in the courtyard and smiled to herself in the early morning of the day the tea was served.
Chao Ge paused for a while before replying: "Young lady doesn't have to take it to heart. ”
Lin Qingrong frowned slightly: "I've only met her three or two times." ”
Chao Ge stretched out his hand and patted the back of Lin Qingrong's hand very lightly: "Young lady, people's hearts are very complicated things, and overthinking will only make you troubled." ”
Lin Qingrong stared at Chao Ge's eyes for a while, and then smiled with relief.
Soon, the carriage stopped at a place in the Imperial City.
The process of choosing clothes was even more unsmooth than Chao Ge thought, not because of how high Lin Qingrong's vision was and how picky she was, but because she liked everything she saw and felt very good about everything, and she couldn't make a decision at all.
At the beginning, the store was so busy that he couldn't take care of Lin Qingrong and a few people, looking at the noodles, I didn't know which lady went out to buy, Lin Qingrong was also happy about it, after reading a Zhuangzi and a Zhuangzi, there were more than a dozen kinds of fancy just likes.
Walking all the way to Caiyunzhuang like this, when he happened to meet no one, Lin Qingrong just touched the second material with golden light in his eyes, and a somewhat arrogant voice sounded in his ears: "This is the best silk of Tianyun silkworm, if the young lady likes it, you can wrap it up and cut it and wear it, but if you touch it back and forth like this and are seen by the young ladies, I am afraid that this material will not be sold." ”
Chao Ge immediately said coldly when he heard this: "It's just a touch, my young lady can touch the materials of other people's people, but you can't touch it, what is the reason?" ”
Young lady?
The waiter glanced at Lin Qingrong up and down, then glanced at Chao Ge, and sneered: "How can the materials of other people be compared with those of our Caiyunzhuang?" Looking at this lady's face, the little one kindly reminded that the materials on the opposite street don't matter if they are touched thousands of times, I'm afraid it will be more worthy of the identity of the lady. ”
At this time, when they heard the words of the waiter, many people had already covered their mouths and chuckled, and looked at Lin Qingrong with interest, even on the second and third floors above, there were a few maids who poked their heads out to visit what news was.
Lin Qingrong's originally good mood disappeared in an instant, and the boy didn't feel that he had anything wrong, and still stood straight in front of Lin Qingrong and stared at the material of this Tianyun silkworm, as if he was afraid that Lin Qingrong would be able to find a hole in it as soon as he turned around, such a move was more humiliating than the stinging words.
Lin Qingrong stopped Chao Ge, who wanted to come forward to theorize, and asked faintly: "How many silver taels do you want for this material?" ”
The boy chuckled lightly and stretched out a finger to shake it in front of Lin Qingrong's eyes.
"Ten taels?" Lin Qingrong frowned.
Hearing this, the boy shook his head and smiled even more contemptuously: "Madam, it's a hundred taels." ”
The words fell, and the laughter around them became more presumptuous.
Lin Qingrong's eyes turned cold, and before she could have a seizure, a familiar voice suddenly sounded with anger: "What kind of Tianyun silkworm dares to shout a hundred taels?!" ”
The shop was quiet in an instant, and the waiter looked back, and the moment he saw Bai Lingyuan, he immediately lowered his head, as if he hadn't figured out why the people from Earl Qing'an's Mansion wanted to help Lin Qingrong out.
Bai Lingyuan's clenched fingers were slightly white, she had always been elegant, and her speech was as warm as a breeze stream, Lin Qingrong never thought that Bai Lingyuan would talk to people so loudly and harshly.
Chao Ge reacted quickly, and immediately understood from Bai Lingyuan's words and attitude, this hundred taels is probably nonsense by the waiter, bullying them for not knowing the price, and still humiliating them, so those nobles laughed even more, she touched the jade pendant in her arms, strode forward and raised her hand to pat the jade pendant to the heart of the waiter: "This day, the young lady of my family wants the cloud silkworm, and the people of Caiyunzhuang remember to go to the mansion to collect the account with the material, one hundred taels of silver, one tael is not allowed to be less!" ”
