Jiang Yao felt that Jiang Shuwan was talking nonsense and being reckless just to save face in front of her.
Jiang Shuwan was able to bring Da Hong Pao tea.
She took her head off and let Jiang Shuwan kick it around like a ball.
Qingxing also looked incredulous.
Da Hong Pao is so valuable.
Even Wen himself couldn't bear to part with it.
Could she possibly give that to her young mistress?
And it wasn't even her young lady who went; it was her who went?
Miss, have you lost your mind in your haste?
She's just a little girl; only a madman like the Wen family would give her to him.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up, the water's about to boil."
Jiang Shuwan urged her on, and Qingxing had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to the Wen family's courtyard.
This was the first time she had ever asked the Wen family for something, especially such an expensive tea.
After a long period of mental preparation, the little girl finally spoke, her voice trembling.
"Madam, Miss is entertaining guests and needs to borrow half an ounce of red robe from you..."
"What! Da Hong Pao?"
"Yes, yes..."
"The crimson robe bestowed upon you by the palace, isn't the crimson robe from the Qingshan and Nanshan region?"
"yes……"
The little girl felt very guilty and buried her head in her chest.
She felt that she might be kicked out of the Wen family's house at any moment.
"Madam, the young mistress is far too bold!"
The indignant voices of the head maid and the storeroom maid rang out.
"The Da Hong Pao tea from the mountaintop was a gift from the palace; it's so rare that even you wouldn't dare to eat it."
"She's something else, she asks for half an ounce as soon as she opens her mouth."
"You're so arrogant and ignorant!"
Who does she think she is?!
Oh no!
The head maid and the storeroom maid were both so angry.
Wen must be even angrier now.
She was so stingy, and the Da Hong Pao tea from the mountaintop was so expensive.
She must be furious!
They might even have to call someone to beat her out.
Qingxing glanced outside, ready to run away at any moment.
"Give it to her."
"Fine, I'll throw her out... What! Madam, what did you say?"
I said give it to her!
The sound of Wen gritting his teeth echoed in the room.
Qingxing looked up in surprise.
Did she hear that right?
There must be something wrong with her ears!
The head maid and the storeroom maid were also shocked.
"Give her half an ounce."
"Give it to me now!"
Wen waved for the little maid to fetch the tea leaves.
When she first heard that Jiang Shuwan wanted Da Hong Pao tea, she was furious.
real!
Throughout the entire capital, she had never seen a daughter-in-law bolder than Jiang Shuwan.
He's crazy to ask her for half a tael of Da Hong Pao tea the moment he opens his mouth.
She wouldn't give him even a single tea stalk, let alone half an ounce.
Madam Wen was furious and almost ordered her servants to throw Qingxing out.
At the last moment, either a stroke of good fortune or divine intervention occurred.
She suddenly remembered a sentence.
You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub.
Jiang has lost the old lady's heart; the old lady is too busy grieving to deal with Jiang Shuwan.
Jiang Shuwan arrogantly came over and demanded a Da Hong Pao (a type of traditional Chinese robe), which she could, of course, refuse.
But if she gave it, it would not only fail to show her compassion, but also make Jiang Shuwan seem even more arrogant.
In that case, the old lady would definitely dislike Jiang even more.
Wen's eyes were full of scheming.
Last time, when she complained about Jiang Shuwan hiring a female tutor for the maids in the courtyard, Jiang Shuwan turned the tables and accused her.
Not only did they fail to discipline Jiang Shuwan, they also made her lose face in front of the old lady.
This time, we must take advantage of the situation and kick someone when they're down.
You can't gain anything if you're unwilling to give it up.
You can't catch a wolf without risking your cubs.
Despite her intense reluctance, Madam Wen had a maidservant pack half an ounce of tea leaves for Jiang Shuwan.
Her heart was bleeding when she handed it to Qingxing!
This is the Da Hong Pao from the mountaintop.
She herself couldn't bear to eat it.
Even if it were used to entertain the princess, it would be an extremely prestigious item.
It was only two ounces in total, and she gave away half an ounce all at once. It broke her heart.
Thinking about it, Madam Wen sent two bowls of bird's nest soup to Madam Pei's courtyard, where she had closed her doors to all visitors.
Whether the old lady uses it or not is secondary; I just hope she will remember her kindness.
Think more about Jiang Shuwan's faults.
The difficult childbirth was an obstacle that the old lady could never overcome in her life.
No one in the manor dared to mention the master.
Jiang Shuwan, on the other hand, not only brought it up, but also subtly implied that there was too much to do and too little to eat, which was to say that the child's death was inextricably linked to the old lady.
Thank God, the old lady got tired of Jiang.
Otherwise, the loss of these half a tael of red robe would be enormous...
"Is this Da Hong Pao?"
When Jiang Yao saw the red robe, she looked utterly bewildered.
She suspected it was fake.
Qingxing didn't get the Da Hong Pao at all, but she recognized the head maid who came with her.
Wen's lackeys tormented her quite a bit in her previous life.
“Young mistress, Madam said that you are the mistress of our mansion. Although this Da Hong Pao is precious, you can still eat it.”
"Madam also said that if you have any other instructions, please let me know and I will have someone carry them out."
Jiang Yao immediately looked like she had eaten dog poop.
Dog Wenger!
You didn't treat me like this before!
Jiang Yao's mind was in complete chaos.
She didn't dare linger any longer, nor did she drink any more tea; she slunk away in disgrace.
Regardless of what happens in the future, she knows that, at least for today, trying to step on Jiang Shuwan would only bring her humiliation.
Let's come another day...
Jiang Yao slipped away in a sorry state, while Jiang Shuwan glanced at the sky outside; it was time for dinner.
She put on a thick cloak and walked towards Madam Pei's courtyard.
Today is another day of melting snow.
The weather this year has been really cold.
