Wang Ximeng also wanted to make money and was going crazy.
She never dreamed of living a life like that.
She knew that the hierarchy here was very strict and if the common people wanted to get ahead, the only way out was to take the scientific examination.
A woman has no status, and the only person she can rely on is either her father and brother, her husband, or her son.
Wang Ximeng tried asking his brothers to study, but none of them were good at studying, and he wasted dozens of taels of silver.
So the only person she can rely on is Zhao Jiajun.
She now dreams of becoming the first lady, and then accompanying Zhao Jiajun back to her hometown, where she sees countless people kneeling on the ground.
Gee, I feel majestic just thinking about it!
It's a pity that she is not married yet, and Zhao Jiajun has not won the first prize.
So, she still had to wait.
When Xie Rongzhao and the others came down, they happened to pass by Wang Ximeng's table. Xie Rongzhao was walking on the far left, with his wrist hanging down. In just a moment, the ordinary silver bracelet slipped out of his sleeve.
It was at this moment that Wang Ximeng happened to see it.
That bracelet?
Wang Ximeng's eyes almost popped out.
Although she didn't look too carefully, she had a strong intuition that it was the bracelet she had been looking for and it couldn't be wrong.
After Wang Ximeng realized what she was doing, she chased her out, but she was already on the carriage, and as a country girl, they ignored her at all.
Returning to his seat again, Wang Ximeng called the waiter over.
"The ladies and ladies just looked very noble. I wonder which family they are?"
Although Wang Ximeng was wearing cloth, the clothes were still very clean and quite new, so the waiter replied: "That's from the Cheng family. There is also a young lady who is Mr. Xie's daughter, and she is very distinguished."
Wang Ximeng's eyes flashed: "Master Xie? But the one who was ranked second in high school that year?"
"Exactly. The Xie family and the Cheng family are related by marriage, and it is said that they are destined to be married. When the Xie family was still young, the Cheng family helped a lot. Now that the Xie family has grown up, they naturally miss the good things of the Cheng family. "
Wang Ximeng nodded, that's right.
So the little girl wearing the bracelet should be Miss Xie?
Wang Xi dreamed of Xie Ronglan. The only way she could have access to the bracelet now was through Xie Ronglan.
"Brother, after dinner, let's go find an inn to stay first. I still have some things to do, so we'll go back tomorrow."
Wang Dalang felt sorry for the money and was reluctant to stay there.
"It's okay if we go back later. We'll come back tomorrow. Why waste that money?"
Wang Ximeng frowned and said: "Brother, it's really important. And it's too dangerous to travel at night. Listen to me, you go to the inn to book a room first, and I'll come find you in a while."
After Wang Xi dreamed of the Chen family, she looked down at her empty hands and felt something was wrong. About a quarter of an hour later, she knocked on the door of the Chen family with snacks.
Xie Ronglan was making clothes in the house. No matter how dissatisfied she was with the marriage, she still had to count on Chen Erlang, so she was not good to the rest of the Chen family, but she was fine with Chen Erlang alone.
"Hey, it's Miss Wang. I haven't seen you for a long time, but what's the matter?"
Xie Ronglan first glanced at what she was carrying and looked at the words on it. Yes, it was from the most expensive snack shop in the county. Wang Ximeng was really good at it.
"Greetings to Mrs. Chen Er, I have long wanted to come and see you, but I have never been able to get free time. Unlike you, we have a rich family and can earn money just by sitting at home. We have to work hard from dawn to dusk. .”
Such self-deprecation is actually to support Xie Ronglan.
Wang Ximeng knew Xie Ronglan's temper very well, and knew that she always liked to hear this kind of words, as if she had a noble status.
Sure enough, the smile on Xie Ronglan's face became even brighter.
"Isn't it all about living life? Since you came to talk to me, you just came directly. Why do you need to buy things?"
"Look what you said, I can give you a few kilograms of snacks. That's my blessing. There are countless people outside who want to get in touch with you, the eldest daughter of the Xie family, but they can't."
Xie Ronglan smiled even more cheerfully.
The little maid served tea and brought in a plate of cut fruits. The beautiful plate and exquisite arrangement made Wang Xi's eyes burn.
How much money does she have to earn to live such a good life?
She knew that Xie Ronglan had a lot of dowry, including fields and shops, and a little maid to marry along with her. This was the treatment that a real young lady from a respectable family should have.
"Okay, you don't want to miss the eldest lady. The second lady will call me later. Just call me Sister Xie as usual."
"Yes, then I really want to take advantage. Sister Xie looks good, and Mr. Chen is good-looking. I heard that he is well-educated. Your good days are ahead of you."
Xie Ronglan also pointed at Chen Erlang.
After some pleasantries, Wang Ximeng explained his intention.
"My fiancé is also a scholar. As for me, when I heard that your second aunt and cousin were back, I didn't have any other thoughts. I just thought I could go over and give them a greeting, and then ask Mr. Xie's family for help. Just comment on the article, do you like it?"
"I can't make the decision on this matter. My grandfather is old and I'm afraid he won't be able to do what he wants. As for my second aunt, I can't guarantee that she will definitely be willing to see you."
"Yes, yes, what you said makes sense. I just mentioned it this way. She is an elder. If it is inconvenient, forget it. But I heard that your cousin is living in Cheng Mansion now. Have you ever seen her? "
Xie Ronglan really didn't know that Xie Rongzhao had come to live in the county, but in front of outsiders, she couldn't say she didn't know.
"Well, the two families are related by marriage and have been friends for many years. As my sister Zhao, I have always lived in the Cheng family since she was a child. There is nothing wrong with that."
Wang Ximeng said flatteringly: "What you are saying is that I do have a small matter here that I want to ask the third lady for help. I also need to ask Sister Xie for help with a referral. Do you think?"
As Wang Ximeng spoke, a wallet of ordinary workmanship was pushed into Xie Ronglan's hand.
Anyway, there was no one else in the room, so the two of them had a tacit understanding.
Xie Ronglan weighed it and found that it was almost ten taels of silver. It seemed that this was indeed what he wanted.
"I have to think about this matter. After all, she lives in the Cheng family. Even if I ask her out, I have to have a good reason, right?"
"Thank you for taking the trouble, sister. I will definitely prepare another generous gift for you when the matter is completed."
The greed in Xie Ronglan's eyes disappeared in a flash. Why not take it if it's good?
Besides, she had nothing to do with the court affairs. She was just introducing a friend to her cousin, which was nothing.
"Okay, then I'll send someone to Cheng's house later to see if she's available. Where do you live now? I have a message here, and I'll let you know."
