Chapter 321 Sour Water
"Jing Yun just sent some excellent fabrics back, saying that they were newly awarded by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and asked me to choose some to make a few new clothes. I just sent someone to get them. I have to choose carefully now. If Madam Zou is free, why not come with me to choose?"
The best way to piss off these red-eyed bunnies is to show off more!
Don’t you have conjunctivitis? Then I’ll make you completely mad!
Mrs. Zou's heart was filled with sourness, and her face visibly darkened. She stood up suddenly and said, "I suddenly remembered that I have some things to arrange at home. I have to go back quickly..."
Seeing others reward her was too dazzling and heartbreaking. She couldn't accept it at all! "Really?" Liu pretended not to understand and pulled Madam Zou "intimately". "I asked you to help me see whether the fine white jade Jing Yun got this time should be made into a jade bracelet or a jade pendant. Since you are busy, I won't stay any longer."
"Wait until tomorrow. Remember to help me choose tomorrow. You have a good eye, so you will definitely be able to help me choose well, right?"
Who wants to see your rewards! Although she didn't have any at home, it didn't stop her from not wanting to see them! Mrs. Zou couldn't help but twitch her lips, and she refused again and again, "My mother has been unwell these days, and as a daughter-in-law, I have to serve her by her side. I'm afraid I can't get away. Come back after I finish my work these days."
"Then you must remember to come." Liu reminded.
I must get rid of this conjunctivitis, so as not to let your efforts in these days go to waste.
"Okay..." Mrs. Zou agreed reluctantly. After leaving the Jiang family's gate, she spat on the ground several times. After getting on the carriage, she cursed several times.
She was originally a peasant woman from the countryside. She was a shallow, ignorant and vulgar woman who could only gossip about other people. She was destined to be a peasant for life. Now, she had no idea how lucky she was to be able to live in the capital for a few days. She took advantage of her son-in-law's reputation in front of the emperor and the prince, and she showed off in front of her! She didn't even look at her own character and whether she deserved those rewards! And that Song Jingyun was just a son-in-law of a very low status. I don't know where he got the luck to be so important!
What fairness is there in this world?
Mrs. Zou was feeling indignant when the carriage, which was running smoothly, suddenly stopped abruptly. Mrs. Zou was caught off guard and her forehead hit the carriage with a "bang". She grimaced in pain and broke out in a cold sweat.
"What happened!" Mrs. Zou angrily pulled open the curtain.
"Madam, I don't know why the axle suddenly broke. I'm afraid the carriage can't move anymore." The maid explained, "The driver said we need to send someone home to ask the servants to tow the carriage back."
"What about me?" Mrs. Zou asked unhappily.
Do we have to wait here for the servants to come? "I'm afraid Madam will have to walk back, otherwise she won't be able to stand it here in this hot weather," said the maid.
Walk back? The weather is hot and the road is long. If I walk back, I don’t know how tired I will be.
After all, she was the wife of a sixth-rank official. If she walked back home so openly on the street, wouldn't others laugh at her to death?
