But even though she had paid so much, Mei Xiaoqin never took her sister-in-law seriously, and was even more rude in her words and actions. Their family had long known that Mei Yuanqing had raised Zhang Ruoruo outside, and after giving birth to a child, he adopted her into his own name and asked her to raise him, but they did not tell him.
I'm afraid that until my death, I will be a complete fool in the eyes of this vicious sister-in-law.
Mei Xiaoqin wanted to get angry when she heard what she said, but then she thought about the box in her arms and became happy again. After all, she got a good treasure, so she had a lot of it, so she didn't care about it with Wei Jingwei.
"Sister-in-law, you have so many good things! I just went to your warehouse to find something for use. I will return it to you in a few days. I see that you take care of the house all day long and have to serve my mother and brother, so I guess If you don't need such a good thing, then I will use it for you. Otherwise, the things will just gather dust there."
After saying that, she didn't wait for Wei Jingwei to express her position, she just took it as a matter of course and left proudly holding the extremely precious wooden box.
Seeing Wei Jingwei, he didn't stop or say anything, he just sat there silently.
Lian'er was really angry and anxious, thinking that the young lady's soft-heartedness had returned. I almost burst into tears on the spot.
She recognized the wooden box, which contained a set of very precious ruby heads.
Each of the rubies above would be considered a treasure in the capital. Such a complete set is extremely valuable! How could you let such a person borrow it?
Lian'er thought about it and became even more sad. She immediately sat on the ground and cried.
"Miss! You are confused! That set of ruby headpieces was the jewelry that Madam made for you after searching for good materials in the capital. It is a set of treasures, the only one in Beijing! Madam specially left it for you as a dowry. What are you doing? If I can give it to that Mei Xiaoqin, how can she deserve such a good thing?"
As he spoke, he burst into tears and cried so sadly.
Seeing her pitiful look, Wei Jingwei burst out laughing, "Su'er, why don't you help this silly girl up? She's such an adult, and she's still crying like a child."
Su'er had no choice but to step forward and grab Lian'er, and finally helped her up.
Seeing that she wanted to continue crying after she got up, Wei Jingwei explained angrily: "You are really stupid. I have seen their family's face clearly now, how can it be the same as before? Since I agreed to borrow it, of course I have already I figured out a way."
Lian'er wiped her tears, looked at her with aggrieved eyes, and asked with some disbelief: "Really?"
"real!"
After receiving the promise, Lian'er wiped her face clean and looked like she was all ears.
Wei Jingwei put on her shoes, walked slowly to the table with her black hair spread out, and sat down. She picked up the tea cup with her white fingers and took a sip, then smiled and said: "Since you said this thing is a treasure and only this one, then What else is there to worry about? She wore it to the banquet, and many people in the capital knew about it. My dowry has appeared on my sister-in-law, guess what others will say. "
Su'er rolled her eyes and understood what the young lady meant. Only Lian'er held up her round face with a very confused look in her eyes.
Su Er kindly explained: "Then others will know that this sister-in-law is greedy for Miss Mo's dowry."
After hearing this, Lian'er's eyes lit up and a smile appeared on her face again.
On this day, Wei Jingwei was picking fresh flowers with the maids in the yard to make powder paste. Suddenly, an angry man came from the end of the gravel road.
Mei Xiaoqin walked up to Wei Jingwei in a few steps, her face flushed with anger, she pointed at her and cursed: "Wei Jingwei, it's useless for me to call you sister-in-law. You actually used such an object to deliberately bully me! Do you know that I am here today?" How ugly it is out there. People are saying that I am greedy for my sister-in-law’s jewelry and that I don’t know etiquette! How can I go out to meet people now? I will tell my mother and brother later and let them teach you a lesson. "
After saying that, he still wasn't relieved, so he took a few steps closer and made a move to push the person.
Lian'er reacted quickly and immediately stood in front of Wei Jingwei and pushed her back. Unexpectedly, Mei Xiaoqin was so helpless that she was pushed to the ground in an instant.
She sat on the ground with a disgraced face, and then looked at Wei Jingwei in disbelief, "How dare you let your maid push me! I will go find my mother to make the decision now!"
After saying that, he stood up and ran towards Ci'an Hall.
Lian'er thought she was in trouble and felt a little uneasy, "Miss, did I do something wrong? My wife and I will definitely make things difficult for you later. It's all my fault..."
"What's wrong with you? Don't worry." Wei Jingwei said calmly.
In Ci'an Hall, as soon as Mei Xiaoqin entered, she went straight to Mei's mother, sitting next to her, crying and fussing, and recounted what had just happened.
"Mom, this Wei family actually allowed the maid to treat me like this! You must help me teach her a lesson, and the maid who attacked me must also be killed!"
Mother Mei looked at her daughter's dirty clothes with a distressed look on her face. After carefully checking to make sure she was fine, she yelled at the maid angrily: "Why don't you hurry up and ask Mrs. Wei to come over? Isn’t it possible to pretend to be dead in Hongxia Courtyard?”
Before the personal maid Yingge had walked a few steps, Wei Jingwei, dressed in rich clothes, walked in by herself at the door, her pace was leisurely and very steady.
Seeing her unhurried manner, Mei's mother got angry and scolded: "Ms. Wei, what's going on with you today? You actually let a servant do something to my Xiaoqin. Quickly drag that maid off. Go down and kill!"
Wei Jingwei found it funny when she saw her shouting and killing without the airs of her mother-in-law in the past. A few days ago, when she beat Mrs. Li, she said she was a shrew and had no rules.
I feel worse now than I did that day, but I don't feel it at all.
Sure enough, he treats others one way and himself another. The two faces before and after are really disgusting.
During the commotion, before Wei Jingwei had time to speak, she heard a cold voice asking.
"what happened."
Mei Yuanqing had just returned from business outside and was going to come to Ci'an Hall to pay his respects. When he walked outside the door, he heard a very outrageous noise inside.
As soon as he walked in, he saw Mei Xiaoqin coming up to him with red eyes, pointing out her wrinkled and very dirty skirt to him.
"Brother, you don't know that the girl next to my sister-in-law is really crazy. She actually pushed me today! I was laughed at by those ladies and ladies outside today, saying that I was... saying that I was a wild girl from the country who didn't know etiquette. No table. It’s all because of my sister-in-law!”
Mei's mother also said angrily: "What a troublemaker. If I had known this, I shouldn't have pitied her and married her back. Now it's good that she has bullied my daughter."
Wei Jingwei looked at them singing together and felt unusually calm in her heart.
