Xie Rongzhao handed over the pair of bracelets given by Xie Ronglan to Cheng Yuanyuan, and when giving them, he did not shy away from mentioning that they were given by his eldest cousin, because he already had the silver bracelets given by Cheng Jingzhou, so he wanted to It would be more appropriate to keep this pair instead of giving them away.
Several female elders of the Cheng family were also there at that time. Although Xie Rongzhao was younger than Cheng Yuanyuan, Cheng Jingzhou was older than Cheng Yuanyuan.
Therefore, it is reasonable for Xie Rongzhao, as her future cousin-in-law, to give her a pair of silver bracelets as a gift.
No one in the Xie family knew about Xie Rongzhao's gift of the silver bracelet, and Xie Ronglan had never dealt with Cheng Yuanyuan, so no one knew about it.
Xie Ronglan found an opportunity and finally entered Xie Rongzhao's room.
Xie Rongzhao went to the side room to take a bath, while Chen Xia was waiting on her. Wang Zizhen went to prepare some refreshments for her, but there was no one in the main room.
Xie Ronglan entered the inner room and saw several pieces of jewelry on the table, which Xie Rongzhao had just removed.
She took a quick glance and noticed a silver bracelet. She immediately took out the bracelet from her arms, swapped the two, and returned to the main room as if nothing had happened.
She glanced left and right, then pretended that she came to talk to Xie Rongzhao, and deliberately said loudly: "Is Sister Zhao here? Where are the servants in the yard? Why don't you see any of them?"
A little girl came out of the east wing: "Miss, the third lady is taking a bath. Grandma Wang went to make snacks for the third lady. Sister Chen Xia is waiting for the third lady to take a bath. What can you do? Please come back later." .”
The little girl was watching the boiling water in the house and didn't notice anyone entering the yard.
Xie Ronglan smiled and said, "I was not careful. The third sister just came back from outside. Bathing and changing clothes are the proper things. I will go back first and talk to her when I get back."
"My slave is sending the eldest lady off."
Xie Ronglan originally came here for the bracelet, but now that he has it, he naturally wants to run away.
When Xie Rongzhao changed his clothes and returned to the dormitory, he noticed something was wrong at first sight.
The bracelet was replaced.
Xie Rongzhao narrowed his eyes slightly. Xie Ronglan's goal was indeed the bracelet.
Xie Rongzhao calmed down and slowly thought about it. This bracelet was very ordinary. It was just a sterling silver twisted wire bracelet. Although the workmanship was beautiful, it was not considered very valuable due to the material.
This was given to her by Cheng Jingzhou back then, so she has always regarded it as a token of engagement.
Xie Ronglan didn't lack any money, but it was just a silver bracelet. Why was she so interested in it?
Last time at Chen's house, she kept hinting that she would take off the bracelet, and now she quietly changed it away. What did she want to do?
Although Xie Rongzhao and Chen Xia were in the wing, Xie Ronglan was specially put into the courtyard by Wang Zizhen.
Otherwise, how could we know what Xie Ronglan wanted to do?
Xie Rongzhao didn't take the bracelet seriously. Anyway, what she took away wasn't real, so she just pretended not to know that the bracelet had been replaced.
The real twisted silver bracelet was now on her wrist. At first glance, it looked somewhat similar to the one on the table.
Exchanging fake for fake, she wanted to see what Xie Ronglan wanted to do with the bracelet!
After Xie Ronglan got the bracelet, she contacted Wang Ximeng as soon as possible. She only hoped that the task would be completed and that Chen Erlang would be able to gain fame as soon as possible.
Of course, the main thing was thinking about the one hundred taels of silver.
Wang Ximeng did have money on hand. She made a special trip to another place a few days ago, and after dressing up, she pretended to be a young man in trouble. In the end, she had to sell her ancestral secret recipe to make a living.
Wang Ximeng borrowed the identity of a distant relative of hers and was not afraid of being traced.
A few prescriptions were sold for a total of more than 200 yuan, which was really a lot.
But Wang Ximeng felt that these were not enough.
Because this is equivalent to giving away a hen that can lay golden eggs. Once the more than two hundred taels of silver are spent, it will really be gone.
But there was no other way. Now she wanted to get money to coax Xie Ronglan into doing things, so she had no choice but to make this move.
In fact, Wang Ximeng had never seen what the bracelet looked like. She was able to keep an eye on Xie Rongzhao before, just because of an intuition, a very strong intuition.
The moment she passed by Xie Rongzhao, she decided that Xie Rongzhao had something she must get.
Meeting Xie Rongzhao at Xie's house today confirmed her previous intuition that the bracelet was on her body.
But when Wang Ximeng took the bracelet from Xie Ronglan, she felt something was wrong when she looked left and right.
There is no longer the same feeling in my heart.
This is not right!
If it is the one you want, the feeling in your heart will be particularly strong.
She had experienced this before in her hometown.
At first, she felt that she must get engaged to Zhao Jiajun. At that time, she broke through all kinds of obstacles. After finally getting engaged to Zhao Jiajun, she felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction and happiness in her heart.
But now, I got the bracelet, but there was no reaction at all. This was obviously wrong.
"Miss, are you sure it's this bracelet? Why do I feel different?"
Xie Ronglan rolled her eyes: "Why is it different? This is what I saw. Have you only seen her a few times? I used to be with her every day. I can draw what this bracelet looks like with my eyes closed." "
Wang Ximeng was not sure, so he whispered: "I will take it back to you first. If you identify it as this, then I will present it with a banknote. If you feel that this is not it, then I can only give it to you again." Take back."
Xie Ronglan was a little annoyed: "What do you mean? Don't believe me?"
"Of course not. Don't worry, young lady. You have to let the nobles verify the authenticity. It's just a mere one hundred taels of silver, so don't worry."
Xie Ronglan's brain worked better this time: "Humph, don't deliberately say that this bracelet is wrong. Then wouldn't my work be in vain?"
Wang Xi dreamed for a while, knowing that it was impossible for him to leave like this, so he simply rummaged through his sleeve pockets a few times.
"This is ten taels of silver. You can take it first and treat it as the deposit paid by our noble man. As long as this thing is genuine, the noble man will definitely settle the remaining money. If not, I will pay the ten taels of silver for you. Make the decision and don’t want it anymore. Give this thing back too.”
Xie Ronglan rolled her eyes twice and felt that this deal was still a good deal.
After all, regardless of whether the bracelet was real or fake, she got ten taels of silver first.
And if it's fake, she can keep the bracelet for herself. In any case, it will benefit her.
"Okay, go and get back soon. When can you give me a message?"
"It will be the day after tomorrow at the earliest. I have to go to the county to find a noble person for identification first. Don't worry, eldest lady, I will definitely say a few nice words for you in front of the noble person."
