Chapter 106: The so-called one thing descends one thing
When the people inside and outside the house heard the sound, they all looked at each other, and they couldn't figure out why they were arguing just now. Fourteen smashed a plate of jade watermelon on the coffee table, and the fragments of the porcelain bowl fell to the ground with the black seed red scoop. I saw him lose his temper, my heart exploded, I felt wronged again, the tip of my nose was sour, and tears poured out like a spring.
Even Minqiu and Zhang Fangfang trembled and stood under the platform, silent.
Fourteen saw that I was crying, and I was at a loss for a while, so I simply lifted my robe and left. After a while, he asked Min Qiu to deliver the message, and said, "Master, the master said that the carriage is ready, let you go to the Thirteenth Elder Brother's Mansion." "I didn't cry anymore, I sat on the kang with a wet face, my eyes stopped on the floor, stunned, like a wooden man. Minqiu pleaded in a low voice: "Master..."
I stubbornly said, "No! He got up again, and lay down on the couch with his face facing in, covering his head with the quilt.
And then... I fell asleep.
I don't know what happened to Minqiu, but after coming and going, he was misunderstood by Fourteen as: Fu Jin covered his head on the bed and cried. Fourteen sighed heavily, and then completely compromised, even if his anger did not subside, he still compromised. He walked quickly to the dormitory, first said nice things through the quilt (I didn't hear it at all), and finally lifted the quilt, picked me up horizontally, and ran out.
I woke up and found myself in his arms, and I asked, "What are you doing?" ”
Fourteen: "Go to the Thirteenth Brother's Mansion." "I didn't argue anymore, because I was sleepy and didn't have the energy to go. Neither groomed nor dressed up, just dressed in the usual robe worn in the house, and went out in a daze. In the carriage, my mind became clearer, and I sulked again when I thought about his macho attitude.
I clamored to get off the carriage, but I couldn't persuade Minqiu. Fourteen more than one anger has not subsided, and it is also a laissez-faire look. I wandered around the streets, and the guards, carriages, and servants of Baylor House could only follow me five or six meters apart. The streets of the capital are very bustling, and Western objects from all over the country, even Britain, the United States, and Japan are sold, making it an international metropolis. I didn't plan to buy anything, but when I looked left and right, I couldn't help but itch my hands, and my mood gradually improved.
Sure enough, shopping soothes the mood.
When I arrived at a jewellery vendor, I picked and turned, and the boss saw that I was dressed casually, so he looked like he didn't care about it. I'm too lazy to bother with him, anyway, I'll take my time and choose slowly. Two brightly dressed prostitutes with a rouge air came over, and the boss immediately changed his face, nodded his head, and served diligently. The two prostitutes showed off their flowers, and the woman in the orange moon season twig-patterned robe tried it on her head with a hairpin, and at the same time threw her wink behind her, and said in a low voice: "The man on the horse, has he been following us since the intersection in front of him?" ”
Another girl in a light green skirt laughed coquettishly: "Looking at the formation, it looks like a relative of the emperor, it can't be that I have taken a fancy to you, right?" The orange woman smiled back and said, "If it is really a benefactor, according to his appearance and character, I am willing to go with him without him paying for his life." As he spoke, the two laughed coquettishly, attracting the attention of countless passers-by beside them.
I vaguely guessed who they were talking about, but I wasn't in the mood to pay attention to them.
If you want to enter Baylor House, do your spring and autumn dreams!
I finally fell in love with a wooden hairpin, made of ebony wood, with a hollow flowing cloud carved on the handle, and two jasper peonies in the middle, and the stamen was a willow ruby. I actually have a lot of jewelry, but I still want to buy it. Just as I was about to ask the boss about the price, the girl in the light green skirt looked at the wooden hairpin in my hand and her eyes lit up, and said, "Sister Yue, that one is good-looking, boss, how much is it?" Wrap it up for me. When the boss saw that a big customer came, he hurriedly flattered and said: "The girl has good eyesight, this hairpin is carved by Boss He in the east of the city, and the materials used are also of the highest quality, and the small shop sells for twenty taels of silver." He smiled at me again, and said, "I'm sorry officer, the hairpin was bought, and I bother you to give it back to me." With that, he snatched it and handed it over to the girl in the green dress.
Twenty taels of silver, equivalent to modern RMB, about 10,000 or 20,000.
Chanel in the hairpin!
The orange-clothed woman's face stiffened, and she said, "Boss, you are too unreal, a broken shop, can you have real jewelry?" Don't laugh, you give a price, and I won't bargain if I can buy it. The boss said: "Girl, although the shop is small, it is genuine." ”
I didn't say anything because I didn't have any money with me, but I didn't want to talk to Fourteen first. Seeing that the things were about to be snatched away, I was ruthless and wanted to exchange the gold and jade pendant on my waist.
But when I wiped my hand on my waist, I found that there was no jade pendant? Even the small purse with a silver toothpick and beef jerky is gone. Speaking of which, that jade pendant is still the dowry that Ama gave me when I got married. There is also beef jerky, selected from the first-class cattle on the Mongolian grassland, a total of more than a dozen catties, after drying, there are only a few catties. It was divided into three parts, one for Concubine De, one for Amma, and one for himself, a total of just a small cloth bag....After thinking about it, I remembered that when I was playing with the candy man in front of the stall, I was hit by a half-old child.
I quickly turned around and ran towards Fourteen, who saw that I was frightened and panicked, and didn't know what was going on, so he rolled off his horse in fright and said to me, "What's wrong?" I said eagerly: "My jade pendant and beef jerky are missing, they must have been stolen by the kid who hit me just now, have you seen it?" "It doesn't matter if he sees it or not, the key is that the guards have to see all directions and listen to all directions, since I have lost something, it is a great dereliction of duty.
Fourteen reprimanded: "Go find it!" ”
Suddenly, except for the two closest guards around Fourteen, the rest of the guards quickly scattered around, causing chickens and dogs to jump on the street. Now that the ice breaker has spoken, the atmosphere of stalemate has eased. Fourteen: "You want to buy something?" ”
I said stiffly: "I have a wooden hairpin." Fourteen looked down at me, the summer sun pouring over his head like gold, and he smiled faintly, and said, "How much silver?" ”
I said, "Twenty taels." ”
Fourteen walked forward and said lightly: "It's not cheap." ”
I hung my head and said, "yes." "Although we also have a lot of money, but expensive is expensive, and we never have the lofty consciousness of treating money as dung. In fact, Fourteen didn't bring any money, who would carry twenty taels of silver on his body? You know, we wear gold necklaces and the like, all of which are calculated in grams. When he arrived in front of the stall, the boss was shocked by the swarming slave guards.
Fourteen asked, "Which one do you want to buy?" ”
I pointed to the girl in the green dress and said, "The one in her hand." ”
The goose-yellow woman hurriedly snatched the hairpin from the girl in the green skirt and handed it to Fourteen, and said with a fairy smile: "Master, this..." ”
The boss opened his mouth wide, was dumbfounded for a moment, and said, "Yes, yes, the little one obeys." ”
Damn, it can be delivered to your door, why didn't I think of it? What does it matter if you bring money or not? Cash on delivery! In the past, I didn't do it once in Wanyan Mansion! Learn new skills properly!
Turning around, Fourteen carried me into the carriage, Peach Blossom narrowed his eyes, and said, "Are you still angry?" ”
I quickly shook my head and smiled, "Don't be angry." ”
It's the uncle who pays the money!
The goose-yellow woman and the woman in the green dress stood on the side of the street, watching my carriage rumble farther and farther away, and only came back to their senses after half a sound. The stall owner took the wooden hairpin from the goose-yellow woman's hand, snorted coldly, and smirked: "I'm sorry, Lord Belle wants it." ”
When we arrived at the Thirteenth Master's Mansion, it was already raining and the sky was clear. The Thirteen Blessings Jin Zhaojia personally greeted the door and said with a smile: "It's coming, I've been waiting for a while." "Zhao Jia's family knows that it was the fourteenth and fourth masters who contributed to the opening of the thirteenth master's mansion, and now Zhao Jia's family is the mistress of the house, and she doesn't know how easy she is. Even for me, there is less prejudice and more gratitude.
Women in ancient times were like this, it didn't matter which woman their husband liked, the important thing was that their status was unshakable. She knew that Thirteen didn't like her, so she simply entrusted her mother's family to buy girls and concubines for Thirteen to be pampered.
She felt that as long as he was happy, she would be happy too.
Thirteen, the ninth master, and the tenth master were drinking in the courtyard, and when they saw me and fourteen, they all laughed: "Are you two paste?" Everywhere it goes, it's glued together. I sat down generously and said, "What about the ninth sister-in-law and the tenth sister-in-law?" The ninth master still said the same sentence and said, "She wants to see the child." The tenth master said: "I don't like to run with women." ”
When I saw a plate of lychees on the table, I peeled the shell and handed it to Fourteen's mouth, saying, "Come, eat some fruit." ”
Fourteen shook his head and picked up a peanut to pour wine. I sank my face and feigned anger: "Open your mouth! Fourteen looked at me embarrassedly, obediently put down the wine glass, and ate the lychee. The tenth master was dumbfounded, and said, "Fourteen, when did you become so obedient?" When you were a child, you were the most naughty, and you didn't even like to listen to the words of Huang Ama and De Niangniang..."
The Ninth Master smiled: "The so-called one thing descends one thing, that's it." ”
The thirteenth master drank by himself, perhaps drunk, and his face was slightly in a trance. He stood by and said nothing.
After sitting in the Thirteenth Elder Brother's Mansion for a while, he got up and said goodbye. Since Fourteen obeyed my mood and brought me to see the Thirteenth Master, then I would also take care of his feelings, and I didn't say anything considerate to Thirteen, and deliberately kept my distance. When I returned to Baylor House, I happened to bump into the stall owner holding a wooden hairpin at the door. He saw that I was dressed up simply, and at first he thought I was a concubine in the house, but then when he heard someone call me Fujin, his expression immediately became three points more respectful. I asked the bookkeeper to give him twenty taels of silver, and another penny. The boss of Lede knelt down and kowtowed, and said again and again: "Thank you for the fourteenth blessing and reward, in the future, you will have a small place, and the small one will not give up when you go to the soup and die..."
He still wanted to have a relationship with me, but I smiled contemptuously and ignored it.
