Chapter 711: Adopted Daughter
Soon, the mother-in-law came back and said that Mrs. Wang got the invitation card, bought jewelry in Fengxian Tower, and made an appointment to pick it up at noon today.
Mrs. Fang then ordered the car to be prepared and went out. When she arrived at Fengxian Tower, she asked the shopkeeper and learned that Mrs. Wang had not paid the money. Now, if she has anything to say, tell me to see her."
Fengxian Tower is the property of the Wang family, and the shopkeeper must listen to the words of this favored wife. Sure enough, when Mrs. Wang came to pick up the jewellery, the total amount was more than one hundred taels of silver. When it was time to pay the silver, the shopkeeper laughed and said, "What a coincidence, it happened that my wife came today. I heard that it was the jewellery, Madam, you made it. I took out my pocket and paid for it for you."
Yang Yiqing is a native of Gaozhou Prefecture, Guangdong. He lost his father when he was young. He was known as a child prodigy.
Yang Yiqing was elected as the school inspector in Shaanxi three years ago, and at the beginning of his tenure, he supervised the construction of the Shanshan Academy in Jingzhao Prefecture, which was very famous among scholars in Shaanxi.
After being an official for many years, Yang Yiqing is still a poor family with little money left. But this time, the county chief has left Jingzhao Mansion, and he has sent posts to all the families, naturally Yang's is indispensable.
Originally, Wang didn't plan to order any jewelry or make new clothes, but she heard some wives talking about it before, saying that during the three years of the princess's three years in Jingzhao Mansion, every time she went out, the clothes and jewelry she wore were different.
Mrs. Han then said that the aristocratic families and the dignitaries in the capital have such a rule, it is said that the same piece of jewelry should not be worn twice in front of the same person within five years.
Wang thought that she had worn the same clothes and jewelry to the banquet for more than ten years, and suddenly, embarrassment and embarrassment poured out like a spring, which made her feel ashamed.
She finally made up her mind to come to Fengxianlou, the largest silver building in Jingzhao Mansion, and ordered a set of jewelry. Some of the parts she didn't like were slightly repaired, and she spent more than one hundred taels of silver, which made her very happy.
But on the way back from the silver building, she regretted it. It took her a full year to save the more than one hundred taels of silver.
Now that someone wants to pay for her, Wang's heart is struggling, and her reason tells her that she should not accept it, but the embarrassment that consumption is not proportional to strength makes her unable to be tempted.
"What's the matter?" Mrs. Wang declined, but her words were not so resolute. The shopkeeper is such a smart person, and said with a smile, "I can't interfere with these things. My wife hasn't left yet. You two have a discussion on your own." .”
Wang said, "Then take me to meet your wife."
Mrs. Wang had forgotten that Mrs. Fang was just a concubine, but she was a concubine from the fourth rank, and she actually wanted to meet a concubine in person for more than one hundred taels of silver.
The shopkeeper hurriedly said, "That's not right, ma'am, you wait here for a while, my little one will let my wife come to see you!"
Soon, Mrs. Fang came, first saluted Mrs. Wang respectfully, and after Mrs. Wang offered her seat, she also respectfully sat half of her buttocks on the stool. The two exchanged a few words, Mrs. Wang insisted on letting her The mother-in-law took out the silver bill and gave it to Fang.
I don't know how long I have kept the bank note, it was wrinkled, and there was a trace of disdain in Fang's eyes, which passed quickly, and she hurriedly declined, "Madam, how many good things Mr. Yang has done for the people of Shaanxi. Over the years, How many students have been cultivated by Yanshan Academy, who have benefited one side and are famous all over the world. How many people want to repay Mr. Yang, but there is no way for me to do so. This concubine is a gift from heaven, and I have promised this repayment to my wife. Please don't refuse .”
Mrs. Wang is Yang Yiqing's wretched wife. She had endured hardships with Yang Yiqing and supported her husband with her mother-in-law. When she heard such words, she was not excited, she was at a loss, "I'm really sorry, my master has repeatedly Tell me not to take money from others."
Fang said with a smile, "What kind of money is this? It's just jewelry. It can't be eaten or drunk. It's just used as a front. If the wife insists on refusing it, otherwise, we will lend this jewelry to the wife for a day and wait for tomorrow The flower party is over, and my wife will return it later."
Wang Shi was overjoyed, this is really a good idea, and hurriedly said, "Is this okay?"
"Why not?" Fang's eyes rolled, "If the wife is upset, please ask the wife to do me a favor. The wife has no daughter under her knees, and the concubine has a daughter under her knees. If you can accompany the wife tomorrow, follow Going to see the world, the matter of borrowing jewelry, my wife just doesn't have to worry about it."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wang thought to herself, for the princess to have a banquet, one more person and one less person is just a matter of adding one or two bowls and chopsticks, who can really eat there? They agreed immediately, and the two made an appointment to have someone from the Wang family bring Wang Lilan over after the hour of tomorrow.
Mrs. Fang happened to bring Wang Lilan here, so she asked someone to bring Wang Lilan over, kowtowed to Mrs. Wang, and said with a smile, "If Mrs. Wang can't say it tomorrow, just say that this concubine's daughter is Mrs. Wang's goddaughter."
Wang didn't know what this righteous girl meant. She thought, this is someone trying to curry favor with her.
When Chun'er saw Fang's car on the street, she panicked and ran into Bai Ling who came out of a pharmacy. She hurriedly lowered her head to apologize, and Bai Ling tilted her head and glanced at her profile, " Aren't you Chun'er, the girl of the Wang family?"
Otherwise, how could Bai Ling just ask questions, she also has a skill, that is, she can never forget anyone.
Xie Zhiwei once joked that if Bailing's ability was used in reading, he would be a champion.
When Chun'er saw Bailing, she was overjoyed. She dragged Bailing into a narrow alley, peeped outside, and made sure that Fang's driver could not see her, so she said to Bailing, "Sister, I just don't know how to find the county's wife. As for the sister next to the Lord, I didn't expect to bump into my sister, it's because the Buddha is helping me!"
Bai Ling didn't understand, so he asked, "What's the matter? Is your girl unable to attend the flower party of my princess tomorrow?"
Chun'er nodded, "My girl caught a cold after returning home yesterday, and her condition got worse today, so she won't be able to participate tomorrow no matter what."
Seeing that there was no trace of worry in Chun'er's eyes, Bai Ling smiled and said, "You're coaxing me, aren't you?"
Chun'er was taken aback, and Bai Ling knew that she had guessed right. She imitated Xie Zhiwei's appearance when she was thinking, squinted her eyes, pursed her lips, stared at Chun'er for a while, and said, "If you don't tell the truth, you know , what crime is this?"
Chun'er was so frightened that her legs went limp, and she wished she could kneel down, "My girl really doesn't dare to lie to the princess, but she feels ashamed to say that because she failed the princess' love."
