Chapter 13 The Sucker Is Here
Fang Qingxue ran away with her maid.
Well, she was running with a bunch of jewelry she had just bought.
Being unable to beat Jiang Yueyao in a verbal duel was one thing...but the main thing was when Jiang Yueyao said in an envious tone that it was great to be the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.
Even Fang Qingxue's not-so-bright little brain noticed that the people around her suddenly had strange expressions.
The daughter of the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue could spend a fortune on jewelry just by competing with others.
Where does this money come from?
It's worth pondering.
[You’re leaving now? I haven’t said I’m satisfied yet.]
Jiang Yueyao shook her head helplessly, feeling like it was over before she had even finished her performance.
But fortunately, she had another gain.
Walking to the shopkeeper's side, Jiang Yueyao rubbed her fingers.
The shopkeeper immediately produced a box with a smile.
"Ms. Jiang, the jewelry that Miss Fang just sold for a total of 18,000 taels. According to our agreement, this is 1,800 taels."
Jiang Yueyao showed joy at first, but soon...
"Shopkeeper, this isn't right. That headgear was originally worth only two thousand taels. Are you going to give me five hundred taels out of the extra three thousand taels?"
"This, this..."
The chubby shopkeeper's smile was a bit awkward.
"Ms. Jiang, we have already agreed on this. You..."
"How about this? I won't make things difficult for you, the shopkeeper. Uh... How about these two shackles being given to me by you?"
Jiang Yueyao had set her eyes on these two bu yao long ago, but they were very expensive, costing one thousand three hundred taels each.
Even though the rubies, sapphires and pearls on it are beautiful, they are too expensive.
But if it is given by someone else, then it is fine.
Finally...
After some bargaining with the shopkeeper, Jiang Yueyao successfully bought the two swings and took away 1,800 taels of cash.
"Here, sister, give it to you!"
Jiang Yueyao generously gave the sapphire-encrusted sandalwood to her sister, and kept the ruby one for herself.
[Wow, now I have the same style of wagging as my sister]
【Wow, so touching! 】
【Yaoyao, I want to eat three big bowls of rice to express my excitement! 】
Jiang Yuehua: ...
"Yaoyao, what are you doing..."
"Ah, I made an agreement with the boss before I had the argument with Fang Qingxue. We'll get a 10% kickback for Fang Qingxue's spending."
"How about it, sister, I'm awesome, right?"
"I had a quarrel with someone, not only did I vent my anger, but I also gained two more pieces of jewelry and 1,800 taels for nothing."
"Sister, what do you want to eat? I'll treat you!"
"Why don't we go to the most famous Zuixianlou in the capital!"
Jiang Yueyao held the box of silver in her hands, her face full of joy.
Making money is so joyful!
Jiang Yuehua: ...
So, she brought Yaoyao here to buy jewelry for her, but... Yaoyao gave her a valuable piece of jewelry and also earned 1,800 taels of silver by her own ability?
I always feel like something is not right.
[Ah, speaking of Zuixianlou, I am really a little hungry.]
[By the way, the alcohol content of alcohol in this era should not be high, just like the beer and sake of the previous life. I kind of want to try it.]
【By the way, the food I eat at home these days is all steamed or boiled. I wonder if people still cook in this era?】
[I don’t know if the food and drinks at Zuixianlou are expensive. It would be nice if I could get another sucker.]
…
…
Outside the Treasure Pavilion.
A carriage passed by the Treasure House.
"Stop."
Xie Yanqing was just about to come to Zhenbao Pavilion to prepare some more fine South Pearls for Jiang Yuehua, but who knew... just as he arrived at the door of Zhenbao Pavilion, he heard a familiar voice.
Is she Yuehua’s sister?
If Jiang Yueyao is here, is Yuehua here too?
A flash of excitement suddenly crossed Xie Yanqing's face.
He walked closer and saw the little girl holding a small wooden box with a smile as beautiful as a flower, and... Jiang Yuehua, whom he had been thinking about.
"The food and wine at Zuixianlou are the best in Beijing. I wonder if I would be honored to invite the two Miss Jiangs to taste it together."
[Oh my god, I was just wondering if there was a scapegoat, and here comes this scapegoat? ]
[Future brother-in-law, just for your generosity, I will definitely say a few good words for you in front of my sister.]
Xie Yanqing was even more moved.
My future sister-in-law is so nice.
Just because of Jiang Yueyao's attitude, I will not only want good wine and good food, but also...
Xie Yanqing looked at the jewelry behind the two people.
Or, buy some more gifts for my future sister-in-law...of course, mainly Yuehua?
"Sir."
Just at this moment, a beautiful girl in blue ran in from the door.
Although she was dressed like a maid, she had a slender figure, picturesque features, and a very unique aura.
The moment she walked in, she looked more eye-catching than many young ladies from wealthy families.
"Sir, your cloak has fallen off."
The woman in green gently draped the thick cloak in her hand over Xie Yanqing's shoulders and smiled gently.
Handsome men and beautiful women, the picture is very beautiful.
only……
However, Jiang Yueyao noticed that when the beautiful woman in green ran in, her sister's expression turned unhappy.
[What's going on? Is there a mistress next to my future brother-in-law? ]
[I didn't expect you to be this kind of Xie Yanqing. You're flirting with someone before you even get married! ]
[No, I absolutely cannot have a man like this! ]
[No matter how handsome, rich, and affectionate he is, if he is a scumbag, you can’t accept him]
[Goodbye, from now on you are no longer my brother-in-law, we will be enemies if we meet again! ]
[I really fed your affection to a dog, I might as well give you a shot]
Xie Yanqing: …
etc.
How did he turn from a brother-in-law into an enemy? !
"Sister Jiang, listen to me..."
Jiang Yueyao: ... "Who is your sister?"
[Your whole family is sisters! ]
[What do I have to do with you? You come and call me sister! 】
[You usually call the beauties around you this way, right?]
[First a friend, then a sister, and finally a baby]
[Bah! ]
Xie Yanqing: "Uh... I wanted to introduce you to my maid, Daiqing."
[Oh, Daiqing... Your name is Yanqing, her name is Daiqing, you two are so affectionate! ]
[Just bully my sister! ]
[Humph, if you, Xie Yanqing, are allowed to enter our Jiang family again, I, Jiang Yueyao, will...wait.]
"Daiqing?"
Jiang Yueyao widened her eyes suddenly and looked at the woman in green standing behind Xie Yanqing with some strangeness.
[Oh my god, this is Dai Qing! ]
[Shouldn't she be Xie Yanqing's adopted sister? Why did she become a maid again? ]
[Forget it, this is not important. What is important is... I remember that the person who put the evidence of treason in the study of the Loyal and Brave Marquis was Dai Qing in front of me, right?]
[Oh yeah, Xie Yanqing and my sister had a good relationship at first, but later on, because of Dai Qing, they drifted further and further apart.]
[If I remember correctly... this Dai Qing seems to be a girl who was almost bullied and was rescued by Xie Yanqing at the border. But in fact, the little fool Xie Yanqing didn't know that it was all a deliberate act by Dai Qing. She was originally from Beiliang and deliberately wanted to frame the Loyal and Brave Marquis.]
[Hehehe, Xie Yanqing, you don't know what's good for you. You didn't choose my sister, such a beautiful woman, but chose a traitor instead.]
[You will suffer in the future! ]
