Chapter 742 Don’t Be Annoying

Bai Yunxi handed the box to Wenyou, looked at Ma Ruren's ugly face, turned to look at Ma Juan, and chuckled,

"Miss Ma, shopkeeper Su made it clear just now. He said that as long as it is an item from Duobao Pavilion, it will be 10% cheaper to show his sincerity. This birthday picture is a consignment item and does not belong to Duobao Pavilion's items. Do you understand?"

As early as when Ma was robbing things, there was destined to be a trap waiting for her.

You want to take advantage and make others unhappy. You want to take advantage of everything. You are so beautiful.

After Bai Yunxi finished speaking, she turned to look at Mr. Ma, "I heard what Shopkeeper Su said just now. Is there any mistake?"

Anyway, the relationship has been settled, so everyone can rely on their own abilities.

Ma Ruren looked at Bai Yunxi's smiling eyes, and her heart itched with hatred. The relationship between her and this country woman was completely sealed.

The two of them may not be compatible by nature, and they didn't have any good feelings when they met. Now they are tit for tat, and they are simply at odds with each other.

For a country woman to embarrass her in public, she really doesn't know what the heavens and the earth are.

"...That's true, but it's really unpleasant for me to be treated differently by Shopkeeper Su."

"You can choose an item from Duobao Pavilion, and I guarantee it will be 10% cheaper."

Shopkeeper Su wiped the sweat from his forehead and bowed to apologize. If he had known that a piece of embroidery could cause such trouble, he would not have agreed to consign it. It's better to just buy it and set your own price.

"Shopkeeper Su, please pay attention to this. Anyway, the person with the birthday picture is not too satisfied. If we change it to the same thing, there is no need to waste your time."

Bai Yunxi looked at her and agreed with a smile.

Ma Ruren looked at her malicious eyes and snorted, "It's just a few dollars. I really think I see it in my eyes. I just want to have fun. If it can't be cheap, then forget it and send it to my house." Come on, I won’t miss you a penny.”

"Hey~, thank you for your understanding." Shopkeeper Su agreed, feeling relieved that the gift was finally solved.

Seeing her angrily leaving with her niece, Bai Yunxi curled up the corners of her lips, hesitant and unwilling to take it away without provocation.

When a few people walked to the street, the Ma family's aunt and nephew had long disappeared.

Zhang Yiren looked at Bai Yunxi's eyes and sighed helplessly, "Why bother? As the ancients said, you would rather offend a gentleman. Why are you so knowledgeable like her?"

"That's true. Some people are so petty that they will hate you for the rest of their lives if they don't even take care of you. Just stay away and stay safe."

Mrs. Liu looked at Baiyunxi and chuckled,

"Let's just talk about me. I have an impatient temper and I don't speak nicely. But I don't hold grudges. If I do something wrong and you say something to me, I can bear not to say anything back."

"Pfft~, okay, no one knows you yet."

Zhang Yiren glared at her, but couldn't help but worry, "No matter how Ma is, she is still the mistress of the Xie family. If you have a fight with her, wouldn't it be embarrassing on your birthday?"

Baiyunxi spread her hands, "She has already been brought into trouble, and I have given in. She still refuses to let me go. How can I make it easier for her..."

After saying that, Bai Yunxi did not hide anything and directly narrated the incident between her and Ma to the two of them.

"It is said that when you are a good person, you should keep a thin line, so that we can meet each other easily in the future. Just because of Xie Yu's invitation, I have been polite to her. But she was vicious in her words and wanted to set me up. It is really humiliating for a dignified wife of the county magistrate to use her words."

Listening to Bai Yunxi's tone, Zhang Yi and Mrs. Liu looked at each other. Although they knew that the man had evil intentions, this was the first time they had heard of such blatant verbal karma.

Needless to say, he must have seen Yun Xi coming from the countryside and didn't take it into consideration, so he was so indifferent.

Whenever someone encounters a problem and runs to Mrs. Xie to cry and complain, Ma will suffer.

"Oh, how come the longer I live, the more I go back."

"She has never been grand. After all, she is the stepmother, and she is not even remotely different from her original wife."

Mrs. Liu sighed with emotion, "It has been so long, but Mrs. Duan's voice and appearance are still in front of me. She has passed away. Every time I think of her, I always feel regretful."

"Who says it isn't? If Brother Yu's mother is still here, we will have another person to talk to."

Listening to Mrs. Liu's regretful tone, Zhang Yiren nodded in agreement.

Baiyunxi listens, to make people miss her so much, there must be something special about Xie Yu's mother.

"Mr. Xie is marrying her son again. As a stepmother, her status must be a little different. With Ma's family background, even if she is a stepmother, joining the Xie family is a high priority."

"I agree with what Yi Ren said. The step-sister and the first wife are not on the same level."

Mrs. Liu snorted lightly, neither her tone nor her eyes looked down on Ma Ruren.

Judging from her attitude, Bai Yunxi heard that this person had a roundabout relationship with Xie Yu's mother. It had nothing to do with her specifically, so he didn't bother to ask too much.

The few of them wandered around a few shops, went to drink tea together, and then dispersed.

On the occasion of parting, Bai Yunxi handed the birthday gift to Zhang Yiren.

"You can just give this to Xie Yu or the old lady for me, and I won't interfere with it. You are right, no matter what happens, Ma is still the mistress of the Xie family. We are at odds with each other, one after another. If we get into trouble and get together again, I won’t be happy anymore.”

"This...where is Brother Yu?"

Zhang Yiren was also speechless. Even though she had already agreed, something could go wrong in one day, and she didn't know what to say.

"Just tell the truth. The old lady's birthday is important. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

Seventy years of life are rare in ancient times, and the old lady is already sixty-six, a very long-lived person.

Zhang Yiren was silent for a moment, then took the box, "Well, if it really doesn't look good, it's really inappropriate."

How many sixty-sixes are there in a person's life?

No matter whose fault it is, it's not pleasant to disrupt a birthday party.

After the gift was entrusted, Bai Yunxi felt relieved and took Wenyou back to the rental house.

"By the way, the forest across the moat outside the city is nice. Let's go for a walk tomorrow and see if we can pick some mushrooms to make soup."

Since her family no longer has to worry about food and drink, she rarely goes into the mountains. As an elder in the family, she said that her son and daughter-in-law would feel uneasy if they went to the mountains.

"Okay, the bamboo leaves in the shop are all picked over there. My fourth brother said the scenery there is pretty good, but I'm not sure if there are any mushrooms."

Wenyou said truthfully.

"It doesn't matter, just treat it as a pastime."

Once, when she was on vacation, she would ask people to go hiking, and she had to take great pains to find some places that had not been commercially developed. The closer to the primitive, the more meaningful it is to explore. Now there are mountains all around, it's completely primitive, so I don't have the energy to do that.

It's really funny to think about it.

The next morning, Bai Yunxi and Wenyou were both dressed in neat coarse cloth, and prepared baskets, sickles and ropes, which made Mrs. Du's eyes widen.

"Mom, Sister Wen, why are you dressed like this for the banquet?"
