Wei Yunruo was cursing vigorously when he saw that at some point, Rong Jiu had let go of Tao Ye and was walking towards her, her face as if covered with a layer of frost.
"I am the niece of Concubine Xian!"
As soon as these words came out, the female relatives on the second floor felt a little contemptuous. They thought that Miss Wei San was not afraid of heaven or earth, but she was discouraged so quickly.
However, if Young Master Rong Wu really wants to attack Concubine Wei Xian's niece here for a wife, that would indeed be too much. One day, he might really be a doting concubine and destroying his wife.
"Master Rong Wu, this is all a misunderstanding. Miss Wei San is probably in a bad mood today..."
"That's right, how can Young Master Rong Wu care about us women?"
…
The female family members from various houses who worshiped the fourth prince were busy trying to reconcile things with smiles.
If something happens to Wei Yunruo here, it would not be good for Concubine Wei Xian to blame them.
But Rong Jiu seemed as if he hadn't heard about it, and his extremely handsome features were even more intimidating. Even the ladies who had just peeked at the handsome man didn't dare to move their eyes away.
Taoye frowned worriedly from behind.
If the fifth young master really takes action against Miss Wei San today, with the status of these female relatives on the second floor, the news will spread throughout the high-end mansion in Shengjing tomorrow, and her reputation as a coquettish girl will be confirmed.
She didn't want to cause trouble, but if she stopped him now, not only might she offend the fifth young master, but the eyes of the women next to her would also be focused on her, which would be counterproductive.
"Don't come over here, I'll call someone if you come over again!"
"If you dare to attack me, neither Concubine Xian nor King Yong will spare you, and my father will also take part in you!"
Everyone next to her was attracted by Rong Jiu's cold aura, not to mention Wei Yunruo herself. When Rong Jiu took a step forward, she would take a step back.
Thinking of the tragic situation in which her brother was carried back, and Rong Jiu's reputation for being unruly, the domineering look on her face had completely disappeared, leaving only fear on her face.
Rong Jiu remained silent, but suddenly the ice and snow on his face seemed to melt away, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly: "Miss Wei San..."
This voice was very gentle, and coupled with that handsome face, it was extremely charming, but Wei Yunruo was already frightened to the point of becoming a god.
What followed was a loud scream and the sound of something falling to the ground.
"ah!"
It turned out that Wei Yunruo had been standing near the incense burner before, and just now he kept retreating out of fear of Rong Jiu. He didn't even notice that he touched the incense burner, so he continued to retreat. The incense burner naturally fell to the ground, and Wei Yunruo himself was tripped and fell to the ground.
His head hit the rosewood round cabinet at the back. Not only was he knocked unconscious, but some of the jewelry on it was also knocked off.
Unfortunately, what was placed on the round cabinet happened to be a fine mutton-fat jade bracelet, which fell into pieces when it fell to the ground.
The crisp sound slowly stopped, and the servants next to him finally reacted, and two of them rushed to call the steward in the building.
As for Wei Yunruo, the two personal maids she brought hurriedly stepped forward to help her master. Several men in the family who supported King Yong also hurriedly went over to inquire about his welfare.
"Miss, are you okay?"
Wei Yunruo's two personal maids worked together to help their master up from the ground.
"Do you think this lady is okay?"
Wei Yunruo's head was knocked dizzy, and the place where it hit the cabinet hurt terribly. When he heard his maid's voice, he slapped her away.
"It's my slave's fault!"
The personal maid was obviously used to being angry. She didn't defend herself, and she didn't dare to show any aggrieved look. She still carefully supported Wei Yunruo.
"Hel Miss Wei San onto the chair over here and sit down!"
The female family members who had already flattered the fourth prince and Wei Mansion called their maids to bring chairs over.
Wei Yunruo was helped to a chair and sat down.
"Is Miss Wei San okay?"
At this time, Rong Jiu walked over and asked gently.
"you……"
Wei Yunruo stretched out his hand and pointed at Rong Jiu angrily, but the bruise on his head seemed to hurt even more: "Why are you still standing there in a daze? Get the doctor quickly!"
Turning around, he sharply scolded the maid who was following him.
"yes!"
The maid who was not slapped hurriedly ran downstairs.
"Hello ladies and gentlemen!"
Xu Wanbao, the manager of Zhenbao Tower, is a middle-aged man with a fair complexion and a slightly chubby figure. He smiles before saying anything and looks kind-hearted.
"Did Miss Wei San knock down the jade bracelet on the ground?"
Xu Wanbao walked directly to the chair, cupped his hands and asked.
"So what if it's me?"
"It's just a few jade bracelets that can compare to the wealth and wealth of this young lady!"
Wei Yunruo covered his head and scolded.
"Of course it's incomparable, but these mutton-fat jade bracelets are the top quality goods in the building. The ones that are damaged now are worth at least five thousand taels. I really can't explain it to the boss!"
Xu Wanbao said with a smile.
"Do you mean to ask me to compensate?"
Wei Yunruo stood up in anger: "This is obviously Rong Jiu..."
"Mr. Xu, Rong is indeed responsible for what happened just now. I wanted to ask Miss Wei San a few words, but unexpectedly I frightened Miss Wei San and knocked over the incense burner and these jade bracelets. Rong is willing to share half of it!"
"Go down and get the banknotes!"
Rong Jiu gave instructions to Tao Ye.
"Thank you, Master Rong Wu, for your understanding!"
Xu Wanbao had long heard what happened from his servants. This was not the first time that Miss Wei San had argued with someone in the building.
Others are afraid of the power of the Wei family, but they are not afraid of Zhenbaolou.
After Taoye responded, she went to look for Xingyun outside the door and asked for money.
Xingyun didn't know how much his master needed, so he simply gave all the five thousand taels of silver notes to Taoye.
Taoye returned upstairs and handed the 2,500 taels of silver notes in her hand to Xu Wanbao: "Mr. Xu, please order some!"
Of course Xu Wanbao would not do it in front of Rong Jiu, not to mention that he also knew that Young Master Rong Wu was always generous with his dealings and would never cheat on money.
"Hard work girl!"
Xu Wanbao did not call the attendant next to him, but bent down and took the bank note from Tao Ye's hand.
Rong Jiu gave the money so happily that Wei Yunruo froze in his chair.
"Miss Wei San, are you watching?"
Xu Wanbao turned to Wei Yunruo with a smile.
"Didn't Young Master Rong Wu say just now that he frightened me and dropped these jade bracelets? What kind of money are you asking me for now? I haven't investigated the injury on your side yet. If it was a fall, Can you, Zhenbao Pavilion, afford the punishment if something goes wrong?"
Except for a bump on Yun Ruo's head, the rest of her body was not injured.
What's more, from the way she argued loudly, to the way her substitute maid next to her was beaten so hard that the half of her face was swollen, it didn't look like she had fallen out of harm's way.
Xu Wanbao's smile faded.
"Young Master Rong Wu has just given away his share. Zhongshu Ling has a distinguished official name. Miss Wei San won't even have to argue with the villain in front of everyone for the two or three thousand taels of silver!"
As soon as these words came out, the female relatives of the families who were leaning towards King Yong couldn't help it.
