The door to the yard was half-open. It was the time when everyone was cooking, so no one noticed what was happening in the Tao family.
Under the mulberry tree, Tao Bushe and Zhai Jingyu sat facing each other, each with a glass of water in front of them. On the small table were a bowl of mulberries and a bowl of fried fruits.
Zhai Jingyu knew that Tao Busha was well-educated, so in order to get close to him, she asked him for advice on poetry and books. The two of them ate snacks while discussing academic matters, and they had a very pleasant conversation.
Suddenly, Tao Bushe raised his head and looked at Zhai Jingyu, silently watching.
Zhai Jingyu was stunned for a moment, but then she became complacent. It must be that her words just now touched Tao Bushe, as he was staring at her in a trance!
In the past, Zhai Jingyu had the contrast of Zhai Jingxuan, and she always prided herself on her talent and beauty. It was normal for a little boy like Tao Bushe to fall in love with her.
Although he is unworthy, he is still useful now.
Zhai Jingyu smiled brightly at Tao Bushe, showing her teeth that were stained black from eating mulberries and her lips that looked like they were poisoned, and said coquettishly, "Master Tao, do you have anything to say to Jingyu?"
The wrinkles between Tao Bushe's brows deepened.
Why is he frowning?
That expression still has some deep hatred...
Zhai Jingyu was puzzled, and then Tao Bushe stood up and said, "It's getting late, the second young lady should go home."
Zhai Jingyu suddenly realized that it was getting dark and she had to go back for dinner. More importantly, she had to feed Shangguan Qingyue's dog!
After a few pleasantries, Zhai Jingyu took Cui'er out of the Tao family's house. As soon as they stepped out of the door, there was a loud slam of the door behind them, as if in anger. Zhai Jingyu couldn't help but look back, and then said to Cui'er, "Did I offend Tao Bushe just now?"
Cui Er recalled carefully, "No, Second Miss."
"Then why is he angry with me?" Zhai Jingyu said with disgust.
She hadn't even started to dislike Tao Bushe yet, but he got angry for no reason.
Cui Er said, "Miss, you must have seen it wrong. I think Master Tao really appreciates your talent. Just now, when you were discussing poetry and essays with Master Tao, he kept secretly looking at you!"
"When he saw me looking at him, he immediately lowered his head out of shyness!"
"real?"
"real!"
Zhai Jingyu was in high spirits when she heard this. This trip was not in vain. She had said that with her charm, it was more than enough for her to hook up with Tao Bushe!
"Okay, time to go back and feed those greedy dogs!"
When she thought of those dogs, Zhai Jingyu's face drooped instantly. She really regretted it, really regretted it. If there was a regret pill in the world, she would definitely buy a few kilograms of it!
In the following days, Zhai Jingyu went to see Tao Bushe from time to time, step by step, and flirted with her, until that day, she pretended to lose her balance and fell into Tao Bushe's arms. Tao Bushe had never experienced such a thing. His face turned slightly red, his breathing became rapid, and he spoke haltingly. He lowered his head for a long time, not daring to look at her again.
Zhai Jingyu knew that it was going to be done.
Zhai Jingyu went back and told Madam Zhai about it. Madam Zhai pondered for a while and felt that it should be more thorough and it would be better to have a token of trust so that after being caught cheating, Zhai Jingxuan would have no power to fight back.
Upon hearing this, Zhai Jingyu quickly said, "I saw a jade pendant hanging around Tao Bushe's waist. If I get it and secretly put it in Zhai Jingxuan's room, it would just confirm their affair!"
“That’s right!”
"But..." Zhai Jingyu said gloomily, "That miser Tao Bushe wouldn't give me the jade pendant even if he was interested in me."
"That's easy, isn't it?" Madam Zhai said firmly, "You can trade something with him!"
Madam Zhai sneered, "We really won't take advantage of him, to avoid any trouble. So, go to the Gold Building and buy a gold bracelet and exchange it with him. A poor fellow like him would be unable to walk when he sees the glittering gold."
"But I..." Zhai Jingyu's face became uglier. Buy a gold bracelet? How could she afford to buy a gold bracelet now?
Just those few dogs made her bankrupt.
If the little mute doesn't leave, she will be pawned!
Zhai Jingyu thought for a moment and said, "Mom, Tao Bushe's jade pendant is of good quality. If you want to buy a bracelet of comparable value, I don't have the money."
Mrs. Zhai didn't hesitate when she heard this and asked directly, "How much silver will I give you?"
Zhai Jingyu's heart skipped a beat and she said, "One... one hundred taels!"
Madam Zhai frowned, "How could the Tao family be willing to let Tao Bushe wear such a precious jade?"
Zhai Jingyu lowered her head and said nothing. Mrs. Zhai had no choice but to ask someone to bring one hundred taels of silver, which was four large ingots!
Zhai Jingyu took it and was secretly happy, "Thank you, mother."
Then he hurried away with the silver in his pocket.
Mrs. Zhai sat down and drank some tea.
roof.
Shangguan Chengjing hugged Shangguan Qingyue and listened to the entire conversation between the two. Shangguan Chengjing couldn't help but curse, "How shameless!"
“How vicious!”
The little guy crossed his arms, "Do you believe it now?"
【I won’t lie! 】
[I told you that the Zhai family plotted against you, wanting to tarnish your innocence. Although you're not afraid, your body belongs to Sister Zhai! If I hadn't predicted this fate between Sister Zhai and her adulterer, even though I love you, I wouldn't be living a miserable life with you here!]
[Big brother still doesn't believe me, huh! So annoying!]
Shangguan Chengjing's face was gloomy, as if he had swallowed a fly.
Having learned from the previous experience, he tied Shangguan Qingyue tightly in front of him with a cloth strip this time. He carried his little sister off the roof and returned to the bedroom.
While untying the strips of cloth, he cursed,
"I never thought people could be so vicious! Father Zhai doesn't care? That's his own daughter!"
"Zhai Jingyu is also his biological daughter!"
"A heartless and ungrateful man like him, who relies on women to get to the top, once he gains power, Sister Zhai and her mother will become thorns in his side. They have witnessed his downfall and shamelessness, so they must be eradicated!"
