And they don't have much money here, so Zhang Ruoruo spends very extravagantly on weekdays. She wants the best pastries, tea, water, melons and fruits, and only wears the best satin, and it has to be embroidered by the best embroiderer.
After calculation, the remaining money will definitely not last for two days.
However, both of them chose to shut up, and no one dared to say a word.
In Hongxia Pavilion, Wei Jingwei, who was reading under the candlelight, suddenly received a very unexpected news.
"What are you talking about? The merchant who sold the materials came to the door and said he would sell it to me for 20% less than the original price?" Wei Jingwei was a little unbelievable.
Su'er nodded, with very surprised eyes.
"Yes, miss, that man is very afraid that the slave will not want it anymore. He has been telling the slave to pick it up tomorrow and he will prepare it early. This thing is so strange."
Wei Jingwei put down the book in her hand, looked at the candlelight that was scratched by the wind and said, "This is indeed strange, but it's not a bad thing. As long as the material is good, just do as he says. By the way, you When you go to get it, probe his voice and ask him why he did this suddenly."
Su'er nodded: "Yes, I have written it down." After a pause, "Miss, what do you think the man from Tieshui Street will do now."
She picked up a piece of rose pastry with her slender, white and jade-like fingers and brought it to her mouth. She opened her pink lips and took a small bite, leaving a lingering fragrance on her lips and teeth.
"What can I do? I must complain to Mei Yuanqing and tell me how I got it wrong."
"Then...how are you preparing, Miss?"
Wei Jingwei patted the remaining pastry residue on her fingers and said with a smile, "How about it? He has embezzled all the money from my dowry these days. It's time to spit it out."
Su'er frowned, "But, my salary..."
Of course she knew that Mei Yuanqing's salary was so pitiful that she couldn't even support herself, so how could she have money to pay her back?
However, "even if he goes out to beg his grandfather or grandma to borrow money, he must pay me back the money. Otherwise, his career will end here."
Wei Jingwei was not afraid of them. She was already unprepared anyway, so why should she be afraid of breaking up?
Su'er didn't say anything more, but Lian'er looked high-spirited.
In the early morning, the wind outside last night blew suddenly all night, and many flowers in the yard were blown to the ground, scattering petals all over the ground.
This scene was seen by Wei Jingwei who had just opened the door and walked out. Su'er thought it would be a pity for her.
She didn't expect it but she smiled and said: "This scenery is really beautiful, why didn't I notice it before?"
The two maids looked at each other and sighed slightly in their hearts.
In the first year of her marriage, the young lady was busy working all day long, and she was secretly distressed about Mei Yuanqing, so she could not notice these flowers and grasses.
"They are indeed very beautiful. These peach blossoms and sweet-scented osmanthus can be collected by the slave girl for you. Whether you are making cakes or making wine, they will not be wasted." Lian'er said with a smile.
Her words immediately amused the two of them. Wei Jingwei smiled and pinched her round face, "You, you, all you can think about is eating. In the past, I didn't have enough food for you, but I still didn't have enough for you to wear." . It’s really worthless.”
Lian'er knew that the young lady was joking with her, but a look of pride appeared on her face, "Miss, the three greatest blessings in life are nothing more than being able to eat, being in good health, and... having a successful marriage! Among them, eating is the most important thing. I like it. It’s enough if I can eat and drink well.”
Su'er patted Lian'er on the shoulder and scolded with a smile: "You can talk about this compliment casually, there is no need to taint the young lady's ears!"
Lian'er stuck out her tongue with a coquettish look on her face.
Wei Jingwei didn't care either. She took a deep breath and her nose was filled with the fragrance of flowers.
Sudden.
"Master, Madam has just gotten up now. If you have anything to do, I will go in and convey it to you." Ma San said eagerly.
"Stand down! It's a joke that I see my wife and you communicating. Besides, there is a man-eating monster or a thief in Mei Mansion. Wei Jingwei actually wants you to look after the house and nurse the courtyard. , so funny!”
Mei Yuanqing rushed in angrily. As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, he saw Wei Jingwei walking slowly on the petaled gravel road.
Looking from a distance, she was wearing a black dress today, and walking on the petal road seemed to be full of lotus flowers every step of the way. Her dark hair was pulled up high, with a very delicate ingot bun on her head, and the hairpin decorated with blue gems was also very luxurious and dazzling.
Even this simple glance gives people a sense of majestic appearance and overwhelming momentum.
A flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he soon remembered that when Zhang Ruoruo cried to him in the yard today, he was wearing simple ordinary clothes and only a silver hairpin on his head, which was simple and endearing.
In his heart, he was waiting hard for him outside, so why was Wei Jingwei wearing gold and silver in the house, enjoying the best of everything!
This is not fair!
He kept walking and soon reached Wei Jingwei. Looking at the gorgeous face of the woman in front of him, his heart was full of dissatisfaction.
Ma San stood three steps away from the two of them, looking a little annoyed.
Wei Jingwei said to him: "It's okay, you can go down."
She didn't expect Ma San to stop Mei Yuanqing, after all, their identities were different. But it is still possible to hinder him and guard against others.
Ma San bowed and said, "Madam, if you have something to do, just call me a villain."
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Mei Yuanqing with an unkind look, and he was so angry that veins popped out on his forehead.
Wei Jingwei on the side didn't seem to notice at all, just waiting for Mei Yuanqing to speak with a cold expression.
Their eyes met, and Mei Yuanqing actually moved away first. He said unnaturally: "Why did you stop the shopkeeper of Xianju Tower from taking out the money?"
Wei Jingwei laughed angrily. The whereabouts of her dowry money actually required Mei Yuanqing's consent.
"If you don't tell me, I still want to ask where all the money from Xianju Tower has gone over the past year. Mei Yuanqing." She didn't call Ye Ye this time, but just called him by his first name.
Mei Yuanqing was so angry that he didn't notice at all. He took a few steps forward and the ring around his waist made a "ding-dong" sound.
He said angrily: "I have my own use for that silver. Look at what you are wearing and what is used in the house. Is there anything that is not made of gold and silver? Why do you do this for a mere few thousand taels?" Things don’t have to make me lose face.”
After he finished speaking, he shook his sleeves angrily, as if Wei Jingwei had done something to feel sorry for him.
Wei Jingwei's eyes grew colder and her words became sharper, "Xianjulou is my dowry shop, and the money is also mine. You misappropriated it without consulting me. Is this what a man does?"
