Chapter 15 Current Favorability...
"It's like this." Jiang Fei said, "The silver I pawned for my jewelry was lost on the road today. Should I report this to the police or..."
Yao: “…”
If she reports this to the police, not only will she lose face, but the entire Jiang family will lose face as well.
She took a deep breath and said, "The government is not here to eat for free. If it's lost, then it's lost."
Jiang Fei said nothing, lowered her head and stirred her sleeves.
It's really easier to invite a god than to send him away. Yao gritted her teeth and said, "How much? I'll make it up to you."
"Thank you, mother." Jiang Fei said with a smile, "One hundred and twenty taels."
Yao took a breath.
Jiang Fei sold the two pieces of jewelry for twenty taels. She spent a small half of it on food and kept the rest in her pocket.
I heard that Jiang Rulin's monthly salary was only five taels of silver. With this money, she was considered a wealthy woman.
Jiang Fei happily took the silver back home, only to find that her knees were bruised from kneeling.
The maid knelt beside the bed and applied medicated oil to her, causing her to grimace in pain.
This maid was sent by Yao. She had driven Yunxiang out before, and she had no one to serve her, so she asked Yao for her. Now that she has Jiutao, she can send her back.
…
As soon as it got dark, a noise broke out in the yard.
Jiang Fei had difficulty getting out of bed, so she leaned over and asked, "What's going on?"
The maid went out to take a look and came back soon, "Oh no, miss, there's a fight outside."
"Who fought with whom?"
"Yunxianghe, I don't know her."
Jiang Fei guessed it was Jiutao.
Everything is very particular in wealthy families. Jiutao used to work in the utility room. Lower-ranking maids and servants were not allowed to enter the inner courtyard, so naturally no one had seen her.
Jiang Fei propped herself up and asked the maid to help her to the door.
It wasn't a fight in the yard, it was a one-sided crushing.
Jiutao sat on Yunxiang, holding her hands behind her back, and asked, "Do you accept it?"
Yunxiang raised her head and saw Jiang Rufei, and immediately cried, "Miss..."
Jiu Tao also raised her head upon hearing the voice and immediately grinned, "Miss!"
Jiang Rufei raised her chin and said, "Let her go first and come in."
Jiutao let go of Yunxiang. Yunxiang got up and knelt down again, looking very aggrieved. "Miss, she was wearing the badge of a low-ranking maid. I wouldn't let her in, but she insisted on rushing in and even hit me."
Jiang Fei's legs hurt, and seeing her crying made her feel annoyed, "Are you hurt?"
"……without."
"Jiu Tao is sensible and is not injured. She will be my maid from now on. You two should get along well with each other."
Yunxiang was choked by Jiang Fei's words and bit her lower lip.
In the past, she was the most favored by Jiang Rufei. All the good things were given to her, and she was obedient to her. How could she suddenly become a different person?
Jiang Fei brought Jiutao into the house and dismissed the other maids, leaving only the two of them in the room.
When she entered the room just now, Jiu Tao noticed that Jiang Rufei's walking posture was not right. She helped her sit on the bed and asked anxiously, "What's wrong with your legs?"
"Kneel down as punishment." Jiang Fei hissed.
Jiu Tao hurriedly took off her shoes and helped her put her legs up, then brought her a pillow to lean on. "Miss, does it hurt?"
"good."
Jiutao reached out to rub her, but Jiang Fei quickly stopped her. If she continued to rub her, she would probably scream like a slaughtered pig.
Jiang Fei leaned on the bed. Now that she had some free time, she had time to review what had happened today.
She always felt that "Pei Jing"'s attitude towards her was a little strange. They had never met before, so why did he treat her like that on their first meeting?
It's like... it's like he has a certain possessiveness towards her and is tired of her being with other men.
Thinking of this, Jiang Fei sat up straight instantly.
Jiu Tao was about to lift her trouser leg to check her injury when she was startled. "Did I touch your injury?"
Jiang Fei acted as if she hadn't heard what he said. She grabbed Jiu Tao's arm and said seriously, "Tell me, with Pei Jing's attitude towards me, could it be that he... is in love with me?"
The topic was so off topic that Jiu Tao didn't react for a moment and was stunned for a moment, "Huh?"
"I think it's possible." Jiang Fei leaned back again, folding her arms and talking to herself, "You see, every time I'm with 'Wei Mingzhen', he expresses great dissatisfaction and his words are full of jealousy."
Jiutao nodded, not quite understanding, "Oh."
Jiang Fei snorted and said cheerfully, "Beauty is a disaster. It seems I am still too charming."
Jiutao: “…”
"What should I do?" Jiang Fei lay down and buried her face in the pillow. "If Pei Jing really likes me, how can I carry out my mission? How can I let him kill people?"
Jiu Tao was confused and looked at Jiang Rufei, smiling and frowning at the same time. "What mission? Kill, kill, kill, kill?"
"You are still young and don't understand the hardships we adults have to endure." Jiang Fei said earnestly, "Everything will be fine when you grow up."
Jiutao said "Oh", okay, since the lady said she didn't understand, then she didn't understand.
The lady gave her cake and didn't allow anyone to punish her, so whatever the lady said was right.
Jiang Fei was immersed in her own world, thinking about it for a long time, and suddenly found some clues from the cracks.
wrong!
Although "Pei Jing" kept saying things like "Why are you with other men?", his eyes showed disgust towards her.
If he really likes someone, he won’t look at her like that, so the person he likes is not her.
And every time he saw her, she was with "Wei Mingzhen". If he didn't like her, could it be that...
"Could it be...could it be..." Jiang Fei was shocked by her own thoughts. She widened her eyes and said, "Could it be that Pei Jing likes Wei Mingzhen?"
Jiutao was about to serve her tea, but when she heard this, her hand trembled and the teacup in her hand almost fell to the ground.
"Prince Zhaoning likes... the Third Prince of Wei?"
This conclusion really shocked even the stupid Jiutao.
She reached out and touched Jiang Rufei's forehead. It was a little hot, but not to the point of being burnt.
…
Jiang Fei fell asleep with this frightened thought.
In the middle of the night, a "ding dong" reminder sound suddenly rang in my head.
【Your system is online. 】
Jiang Fei half-closed her eyes and felt like cursing. Why didn't he come earlier or later, but chose to disturb her sweet dream when she was sleeping?
The system said apologetically: "Report a little bit, I forgot there is a time difference."
Jiang Fei: "What are you doing here?"
"Of course I came to see you, to check on the results, and to let me see how much Wei Mingzhen likes you."
What? Favorability?
Jiang Fei woke up instantly, "You still have this thing? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
The system said nonchalantly: "You didn't ask, isn't this something most systems come with?"
Jiang Fei was speechless.
The system paused for a moment: "Okay, it's out. Wei Mingzhen's current favorability towards you..."
Jiang Fei waited for a long time but the system didn't tell her the number. "How much?"
The system voice was a little clipped: "Tell me first what you did?"
