Chapter 17 I don't like to hear a word
"What's the matter, can't you make it up?" Jiang Yuhuan asked.
The shopkeeper shook his head and asked in a solemn tone, "May I ask Madam, how did you get this bracelet?" ”
"Someone else's gift."
"Who's the gift?" The shopkeeper asked.
Jiang Yuhuan wondered, "Is this important for mending the bracelet?" ”
"It's not important to mend the bracelet, but it's important to me."
"The Second Lady of the British Mansion."
"Second lady?" The shopkeeper was puzzled for a moment, and then suddenly realized, "Yes, they have always been good, and they should send her." ”
Jiang Yuhuan didn't understand the meaning of the shopkeeper, and he didn't know what was unique about the bracelet given by the second lady.
But the second lady repeatedly asked her to mend it, thinking that she was to let her come to this shopkeeper, and she came to the right place.
She suppressed the doubts in her heart and said with a smile: "Can the shopkeeper take a step to speak?" ”
"Naturally, ma'am, please come with me."
Jiang Yuhuan followed the shopkeeper into a room in the backyard of the shop, and Sanqi followed.
She motioned for Sanqi to check around, Sanqi looked around, and then nodded at Jiang Yuhuan.
Seeing that there was no threat, Jiang Yuhuan got straight to the point, "Don't blame the shopkeeper, I'm more cautious." ”
"It should."
"I don't know what the shopkeeper meant?"
"This bracelet is made by me, and because it is the first proud piece I made, it has special markings that I can recognize at a glance." The shopkeeper found the mark and pointed it to Jiang Yuhuan, "At the beginning, I and my inner man encountered robbers on the road, but fortunately, we were rescued by the eldest lady of the British Mansion and were able to escape. Afterwards, I took the bracelet as a token and promised the eldest lady that if she had something to help in the future, she could come to Yumingxuan to find me. It's just a matter of making people...... I thought that this bracelet would not appear, but I didn't expect that the eldest lady gave it to the second lady. My promise is still valid, and since the second lady gave the bracelet to the lady, the lady only had to ask for it. ”
The eldest lady of the British Mansion, isn't she the original mother, Wen Sihou's original partner?
Jiang Yuhuan didn't have time to think about the deep meaning of this, and listened to the shopkeeper say: "I see that the gap on this bracelet has only existed in the past two days, and I want to come to the second lady to give you this bracelet with a deep meaning." ”
When she went to the British Mansion that day, could it be that the second lady knew in advance that she would go, so she deliberately broke the bracelet, and pretended that she was not ready to take a broken bracelet and send her away.
What news did the second lady want to convey to her, and what was the purpose of this move?
Is it to see that she is having a hard time and want to help her? But what can the shopkeeper of a jade shop help her?
"To be honest with the shopkeeper, I didn't know what this bracelet was for, and I didn't think about what to ask for."
The shopkeeper looked kind, "It's okay, when does Madame think about coming back." ”
"I still have something to ask the shopkeeper."
"Is my mother on good terms with Second Mrs. Luo?"
The shopkeeper was stunned, "Ling Zun is?" ”
"Miss of the British Duke, Mrs. Wen Sihou."
"You...... Are you Miss Jiang? ”
"Hmm."
The shopkeeper looked at Jiang Yuhuan in surprise, and it took a while to come back to his senses, and then he got up and knelt in front of Jiang Yuhuan, "I've seen the little benefactor!" ”
This kneeling was quite solid, and Jiang Yuhuan heard a "bang".
Everyone trembled a little, and then reacted and quickly helped the shopkeeper up.
"Shopkeeper, hurry up. That's my mother's credit, I can't stand your knees. ”
"No, you can afford it." Knowing that Jiang Yuhuan is the daughter of a benefactor, the shopkeeper changed to an honorific title, "If it weren't for the eldest lady, there would be no Wu today." The eldest lady not only saved my life, but also helped me strengthen Yumingxuan, and seventy percent of Yumingxuan is the eldest lady! In the past two days, I heard that the little benefactor has regained his senses, and Wu is still hesitant to come to the door, after all, all the shops under the name of the eldest lady have been taken back by the British Duchess, if the British Duchess knows, I am afraid it will be ......"
"Why did the English duchess do this to my mother?"
The shops under the name are generally the dowry prepared by the family for the woman, which is the foundation and retreat of the woman in the husband's family.
Why did the British Duchess do such a desperate job? Is there still a few shops left in the British government?
"I can't tell. When the eldest lady wanted to marry Wen Sihou, the British duchess was not happy and still used her hands and feet on the dowry. Don't look at the ten miles of red makeup to make a face, in fact, most of it is full of stones. If it weren't for God's eyes, the wedding team would have been overturned, and everyone would still think that the British government would attach great importance to the eldest lady! ”
The shopkeeper spoke with righteous indignation, and did not hide his dislike for the English duchess.
At yesterday's banquet, Jiang Yuhuan was already aware of the British duchess's dislike of her mother, and now it seems that she is not only disliked.
A mother, because her daughter has to marry someone she is not satisfied with, humiliates her like this, which really opened Jiang Yuhuan's eyes.
Thinking of the British duchess's affectionate call of "Huanhuan", Jiang Yuhuan was disgusted.
"Shopkeeper Wu, can you tell me about my mother?"
"Actually, I don't know much about the eldest lady, she came to me after she rescued our husband and wife."
When Shopkeeper Wu talked about the past, he looked excited, sometimes showing a nostalgic look, and sometimes his eyes were red.
At that time, Miss Luo Huizhi saw that Wu's shopkeeper's shop was remote, and she thought that Wu's shopkeeper was good, so she offered to give him a shop, and also found a lot of good jade materials.
Shopkeeper Wu didn't want to take advantage, so he proposed to let Luo Huizhi be the owner of the shop.
Luo Huizhi categorically refused, only saying that she was a cherisher of talent, and thought that Wu's shopkeeper's craftsmanship should not be buried.
But Shopkeeper Wu is also an upright person and is unwilling to accept the benefits of Bailai.
The two were at a stalemate, and finally Luo Huizhi compromised and said that if the shop was profitable, it would be red.
Shopkeeper Wu agreed, thinking that she didn't know how much the shop earned every month, and she didn't know if she gave her seventy percent.
So he proposed to send the shop's monthly dividends to the British government.
But Luo Huizhi said that she would temporarily store it in the shop first, and she would come to pick it up if necessary.
"At that time, I only thought it was a delaying tactic for the eldest lady not to want money, and it wasn't until a few months later that the eldest lady came to the shop to withdraw the money, and I didn't know that the shops under the eldest lady's name were taken away, and if the money was really sent to the door, I am afraid it would not fall into the hands of the eldest lady. She really didn't have any money, so she found it. Later, when I married into Wen Sihou's Mansion, I never saw the eldest lady come again, and I have always saved this money. If the little benefactor needs money, just come and get it. ”
"Let's save it for now. If my mother hadn't been desperate, I'm afraid she wouldn't have asked for this money. ”
"yes. The eldest lady is such a good person, and she has a handkerchief with the former queen, and the husband she married also loves her very much, but it's a pity that ......"
Shopkeeper Wu babbled about some things about Luo Huizhi, almost all of which he had heard.
Jiang Yuhuan listened, and had a rough outline of his biological mother.
Her mother should be a smart person, the shops taken away by the British duchess are all prosperous, but after taking them away, the business has taken a sharp turn, and it is difficult to say that there is no handicraft from her mother.
Aware of the crisis and responding to it.
seems to be suppressed by his mother, but he has not been wronged at all.
The dowry being knocked over should also be her masterpiece.
After that, the reputation of the British government plummeted, and it was not until the second lady of the Luo family became the queen that it improved.
Judging from all indications, the British duchess is not simply dissatisfied with her mother's insistence on marrying Wen Sihou, there are other things in this.
The relationship between them is probably not at all mother-daughter affection.
She left with the jade bracelet, and kept staring at the jade bracelet in the carriage, until she returned to Duanyang Palace, she didn't put down the jade bracelet.
She wondered, what did the second lady want to tell her?
Her mother and the British duchess are not in harmony, or is she simply given her money to spend? Or, remind her that the English duchess is not to be trusted.
"Jiang Yuhuan!"
She was thinking about it, and she shouted loudly, so frightened that her hand trembled, and the bracelet in her hand came out.
Jiang Yuhuan's pupils shrank suddenly, he raised his foot to hook the jade bracelet and kicked it hard, seeing that the jade bracelet was thrown into the air, he quickly grabbed her in his hand.
She caressed her heart, fortunately it was not broken, this is her mother's relic, but it can't be smashed.
After her heart settled, she turned her head to look at the culprit.
Before she could be surprised, the culprit had already walked up to her side, grabbed her hand and asked, "Where did you get this bracelet?!" ”
"Picked it up. Does Master Hou know? ”
Jiang Yuhuan broke free from the shackles and talked nonsense casually.
She looked at Jiang Qiao's suspicious expression, and suddenly remembered that the shopkeeper Wu said that Jiang Qiao loved her mother very much.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it!
If you really love it, then how can you let the original owner be bullied in the backyard and ignore it.
It must be an illusion created by Jiang Qiao to deceive everyone!
Jiang Yuhuan couldn't help but show a look of disdain, and was caught by Jiang Qiao, he scolded angrily, "What kind of eyes are you!" ”
"Can't you see it? Ask while knowing the answer. ”
Jiang Qiao was angry, and said with a stiff neck: "I asked you where the bracelet came from!" ”
"I said I picked it up, believe it or not!"
Jiang Qiao stretched out his hand and said without refusal: "Give me the bracelet!" ”
"Don't give it!" Jiang Yuhuan hurriedly put the bracelet on his wrist and raised his hand to demonstrate.
Jiang Qiao was so angry that he gasped, "Jiang Yuhuan! I'm your father, you dare to disobey me?! ”
"Married to my husband, I am now under the control of the prince of the county."
"You still have the face to say! I asked you to take your sister into the palace, but you don't want to forget it, why do you want to go into the palace to ask the queen mother to give you the position of princess of the county? ”
Jiang Yuhuan didn't explain how the position of princess of the county came about, she looked at Jiang Qiao coldly, "Master Hou, other fathers all want their daughters to marry well, have status, and be respected. What about you? I can't wait for me to be a concubine who can be manipulated and even killed at any time! ”
Jiang Yuhuan knew that Jiang Qiao couldn't say good things in his mouth.
Unexpectedly, he escaped at the gate of the palace, and he chased him to the county king's mansion.
Jiang Qiao was speechless for a while, and only said dryly, "I'm for your good!" ”
"Master Hou, don't push me into the abyss of no recovery in the name of being good for me."
Jiang Qiao couldn't hide his sorrow, he lowered his voice and leaned into Jiang Yuhuan's ear, "Do you think the Queen Mother is treating you well!" ”
Jiang Yuhuan pushed him away, "I know in my heart that I don't bother with the Hou Ye." ”
Jiang Qiao stared at her motionlessly, the look in his eyes was obscure, and Jiang Yuhuan was inexplicable.
Just as Jiang Yuhuan was about to leave, Jiang Qiao spoke, "I can't persuade you." But Ah Huan, listen to your father's words and support your sister to enter the palace. Your sister doesn't have a lot of brains and won't be a threat to you. You ......"
Jiang Qiao glanced at Sanqi, and finally closed his mouth and didn't speak again.
Jiang Yuhuan thought that she could calmly face Jiang Qiao's eccentricity, after all, she was not the original owner, and she would not be wronged, at most she would be annoyed by listening.
But Jiang Li poured dirty water on her in front of everyone, and she also told Jiang Qiao about it, Jiang Qiao still felt that Jiang Li would not do anything to her when she entered the mansion, and persuaded her to help.
Jiang Yuhuan felt cold.
"She wants to let her rely on her own ability, I'll wait and see."
"You!"
Jiang Yuhuan ignored him anymore and just wanted to go back to prepare for tomorrow's birthday banquet.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly remembered the words of the shopkeeper Wu, and put down his raised foot again.
