Chapter 135 I’m Afraid That I Can’t Send the Silver Away

Bang!

The small ceramic jar shattered, and the milky white ointment inside splashed all over the ground, emitting a rich fragrance that spread in the wind.

Many people showed regretful expressions.

This is a treasure.

But no one dared to interfere.

"We in Prince Long's Mansion need to buy some perfume, so we don't need your shit." The wolf cub shouted in a baby voice, with his chin raised and his eyes slanted, looking a bit like Changning's arrogance.

Then he grabbed Tang Yuli's hand and pulled him towards Changning, and lectured him like a child: "Auntie is too easy to talk to. You are being led around by someone like this. Isn't it a disgrace to you?"

Tang Yuli wanted to argue for Su Rui, but was stopped by Changning's look.

Turning to look at the wolf cub, Changning's eyes were filled with satisfaction.

Although this kid is the child of Chen Youmin and Zhou Yao, and she had no choice but to accept him, he has indeed met her liking in every way over the past few days, and he seems like a member of her Tang family.

Now, she didn't even need to say anything, she just stepped on Su Rui.

"Okay, don't let this nonsense bother you. Let's go."

Changning turned around and left triumphantly, without further consideration of the matter of the ointment.

Tang Yuli was pulled away, and the wolf cub avoided people and raised his eyebrows to Su Rui quickly before leaving, as if to say, I helped you.

Su Rui pretended not to see it.

Black-hearted glutinous rice balls, eating them once is enough, never a second time.

After Changning and the others left, Su Rui did not stay long either, and walked slowly in another direction with Xiaoru.

It seems like strolling aimlessly in the garden, and as if not knowing where to go. I am all alone, which looks pitiful, but also seems like there is an opportunity.

When Su Rui turned and entered the corridor with hanging flowers, a figure finally quickened his pace and followed in.

"Su... Concubine Su."

Su Rui stopped, turned around, and called out with a smile, "Mrs. Pei."

Mrs. Pei was surprised, "You know me?"

"Everyone knows the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard and the wife of Lord Pei Yan." Su Rui's voice was soft and pleasant, without any hint of joking.

But there was still a flash of embarrassment in Mrs. Pei's eyes.

It is true that she is Pei Yan's wife, but she is not known to everyone.

Pei Yan is, she...is not.

Pei Yan was considered a promising young man among the younger generation of the royal family, and was considered a perfect match in the eyes of many noble ladies, but his family had already arranged a marriage for him early on.

She is the eldest daughter of the imperial merchant Yue family.

Although they are extremely wealthy, scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, even imperial merchants, are still merchants and are looked down upon by aristocratic families.

It was unknown why the Pei family would marry the daughter of the Yue family, but Pei Yan was not happy with his wife, the daughter of a merchant. It was said that they had not consummated their marriage yet, while the three concubines in the family were all treated equally, making his wife feel embarrassed and rarely going out.

Over time, many people no longer knew this person.

And the Madam Pei in front of him was indeed hard to remember.

His appearance, figure, and manners are all ordinary.

She is the kind of person who is hard to find even in a crowd of people. She is a good candidate to be a spy. However, as a lady or a wife, it is very difficult to win the heart of her husband in this world.

Su Rui knew her, so she had naturally investigated everyone who came today in advance, and expected that she would be the first person to come to her.

Firstly, as a merchant's daughter, no one would look down on her too much; secondly, she really needed something that could make her beautiful.

"I wonder what Madam Pei wants to see me about?"

"I...I..." Madam Pei was still a little hesitant, but when she looked up and saw Su Rui's stunningly beautiful face, she gritted her teeth and took a step forward and said, "I want to ask Concubine Su for the ointment you asked for Miss Tang Er."

Su Rui showed a look of surprise, and Mrs. Pei immediately panicked. She hurriedly took out a stack of banknotes from her sleeve pocket and said, "I can buy it. Any amount is..."

At this point, Madam Pei realized something and lowered her head in embarrassment, saying, "I'm sorry, I'm used to buying everything with silver. I know you don't lack silver. I... I was just too impatient, I..."

Before he could finish his words, a small white porcelain jar with painted patterns appeared in his sight.

Mrs. Pei looked up in surprise, and was stunned when she saw Su Rui's smiling face.

"It's just some perfume, not worth much. Madam Pei, there's no need to be so kind. Just take it and use it." Su Rui said, and put the perfume into Madam Pei's hand.

Before Mrs. Pei could react, she turned around and continued walking forward.

The people who were observing secretly did not miss this scene. Seeing that Su Rui gave Madam Pei the ointment so easily, they became restless.

Soon, two or three more people called Su Rui.

Su Rui still greeted them with a smile and generously gave them ointment, even though those people looked at her with contempt.

After walking out of the hanging flower corridor, Su Rui had distributed all the thirty bottles of ointment that she had brought with her today.

Xiao Ru felt pained and whispered, "Why did you give all the concubines away? There are several thousand taels of silver here."

She had never seen so much money in her life, nor had she seen so many things finally turned into such a small thirty jars.

And now, in just two quarters of a second, they were all delivered.

And those people didn't even say thank you.

Not only does he feel pain in his body, but he also feels that it is not worth it for Su Rui to be wronged. Isn't this like throwing meat buns at a dog?

"This is called investment. This little bit of money will be earned back soon. Moreover, it's not just money, there are many more valuable things."

Su Rui was happy.

She was not afraid of giving the money away for nothing, but she was afraid that the money could not be given away.

But Xiaoru didn't understand.

Su Rui smiled and didn't explain any more to her. She prepared to go to the lunch place.

But before he took two steps, he saw a strange yet familiar figure.

Chen Youmin.

The man who had accused her of something and beaten her so hard that she couldn't get up and was exiled as a slave.

Su Rui pretended not to see it and turned to walk to the other side.

As a result, he became anxious and took a few quick steps to stop her.

"Master Chen, why are you blocking my way when there's no one around? What? Are you planning to accuse me of adultery again? But now..." Su Rui lowered her gaze to between his buttocks and sneered, "I'm afraid you can't do that."

Chen Youmin's face turned from red to blue, but he didn't move. He swallowed his humiliation and said, "Sister Su, I know I'm too embarrassed to see you. I was sorry for what happened five years ago, but I was also threatened by that bitch Zhou Yao at the time. You know, she was more favored than you in the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion, and the Marquis's wife was her biological mother. Compared to her, everyone was pointing their finger at you. I... I had no choice."

"So? You're here to explain to me what your journey was like five years ago?"

"I...I'm begging you." Chen Youmin struggled to keep his head from bowing. "Please, for the sake of our past friendship, help me speak to Prince Yong and ask him to transfer me to Yanzhou. I will be absolutely, absolutely loyal to him and serve him at all times, even as a soldier."
