He is a prince, and no one would speak rudely to him directly, but there are many teasings that seem harmless but are actually problematic. Before, he would naively treat them as friends, and thought that they spoke to him so freely because they had a good relationship.
"My pocket money is quite small. Meng Xiaojiu, you have a lot of pocket money, right? Then you can help me and my sister pay the bill. You didn't feel reluctant to buy my sister a couple of rocks to play with when you saw her for the first time, did you? You can't be so stingy! Or are you bragging when you say your family loves you and gives you a lot of pocket money?"
Yes, among these children, the leader is also a member of the royal family. He is the great-grandson of King Ping and the ninth child in the family, so the Sixth Prince has always called him Meng Xiaojiu.
Although Meng Xiaojiu was not short of money, he did not want to be taken advantage of. He said, "It's not that I don't want to, but Sixth Young Master, haven't you already paid?"
Wei Funen asked the waiter in a serious tone, "Brother Xiaoer, can you return the money to my sixth brother and take the money from that brother?"
The waiter looked at Meng Xiaojiu and the others hesitantly. These people often strolled around here. He felt familiar with them and knew that they were of noble status.
Wei Fu tilted his head, looked up in confusion and asked, "Little Brother, why don't you say anything and go to see those little brothers? Are they the owners of your shop?"
The waiter quickly said, "Of course not."
He knew that Meng Xiaojiu and the others were of noble status, but he could also see that Meng Xiaojiu seemed to be wary of the Sixth Prince's status. He didn't want to offend either side.
The Sixth Prince didn't want to embarrass others, so he sighed and said, "Ah, I thought you, Meng Xiaojiu, were so rich and generous. I have always regarded you as a good brother. I didn't expect that you couldn't even afford to buy a gift for my sister."
Meng Xiaojiu was about the same age as the Sixth Prince. Although intelligent, he was not a demon. Hearing his words, he was also provoked to some blood: "How could it be? We have such a good relationship, and we are also relatives. How could I be reluctant to buy a gift for meeting you?" He glanced at the person behind him and said: "Go and pay."
Wei Fu smiled and said, "Thank you, brother."
The Sixth Prince also smiled and said, "Thank you, Xiaojiu."
Meng Xiaojiu forced a false smile.
It’s different now. The Sixth Prince, that fool, has become different today.
In the past, he trusted him very much and was very dependent on him, but now he was obviously on guard against him, and was lukewarm towards him. Moreover, he became much smarter and cheated him.
Thinking of the incident in which soldiers broke into his house to search, Meng Xiaojiu was filled with resentment.
They, the Prince Ping's Mansion, have been so low-key, but the emperor is still unwilling to let them go. Meng Xiaojiu has an unprecedented desire for power in his heart.
The Sixth Prince and Wei Fu didn't care what Meng Xiaojiu was thinking. Some people were very happy about the superficial poor guy and Wei Fu, who had to support many people and thought he was poor.
The Sixth Prince asked Wei Fu, "Sister, do you want to open these two stones right now, or take them away?"
Wei Fu quickly said, "Of course it has to be opened on the spot."
It is free to open it on the spot, but if you go back to open it, you have to use your own manpower, which is not cost-effective.
So the Sixth Prince asked the waiter to call the stone cutter over.
The stonecutter came over, picked up a piece of stone, looked at it carefully, and then found a place to make the first cut. After this cut, he saw nothing.
After looking at it carefully, he cut it a second time, but still found nothing.
Wei Fu looked anxious and pointed at a spot on the stone, saying, "Cut from here..."
The stone cutter said, "Young lady, there's no such way of cutting stone. You..."
Wei Fu waved his hand and said, "It's okay. If it gets damaged, it's my fault. I'm just doing it for fun~~~"
The stone cutter swallowed back his words of persuasion and said, "Okay, you have money, so I'll listen to you."
I don’t know when a group of people gathered around. When they heard Wei Fu say this, they all wondered whose prodigal daughter this was.
If you spend money so recklessly when you are young, what will happen when you grow up?
Wouldn't it be unlucky for whoever marries her?
However, the next second, they were slapped in the face. The stone cutter cut into the stone and saw something green. Someone who knew about the matter exclaimed, "It's an emerald!"
As soon as this cry was heard, someone said, "Oh, this little girl has made a fortune!"
Some people also said: "This stone is so small, even if it is an emerald, you can't get much out of it."
Wei Fu agreed with the man, "Yes, yes, this green stone is not that big."
After Wei Fu said this, the person who was jealous felt embarrassed.
The crowd burst into laughter. The fact that Wei was so generous in supporting a child made the adult seem unpresentable.
The man felt embarrassed amid the laughter and left quickly.
The Sixth Prince snorted coldly and said, "Even if this emerald is only the size of an egg, my sister has made a profit." They got the stone for free.
At this time, Meng Xiaojiu felt very uncomfortable.
But I still have to put on a smile.
After the stone was completely cut, it was indeed not very big, only slightly larger than an egg, but it was also an emerald!
Emerald itself is the most precious of jades, because in Taisho period, emerald was very rare.
The stone cutter rarely found an emerald, so he happily asked Wei Fu, "Miss, do you want to cut the other stone?"
Wei Fu nodded quickly.
The stonecutter subconsciously glanced at Wei Fu before cutting the stone.
Wei Fu pointed to a spot and said, "Cut from here!"
The stonecutter cut it with a knife, and wow, he saw something again.
The person who opened the stone exclaimed: "It's mutton-fat jade!"
The stone Wei Fu had before was not big, but this stone is big!
And judging from the place where the mutton-fat jade is exposed, it is very likely a large piece.
Because gambling on stones was popular in the Taizheng period, there were many people who gambled on stones. Many people bought a hundred or so stones, and even if they spent all their money, they still couldn't get anything out of them.
But Wei Fu chose two stones, both of which contained something, which made people shocked.
Some attentive people noticed that Wei Fu's fingering was very accurate. Someone couldn't help but ask, "Young lady, did you know that there was something inside these two stones and where it was?"
Wei Fu shook his head: "I don't know, I was just giving orders blindly. This is also my first time here with my brother."
However, what happened later made them feel that Wei Fu was not just lucky, she was simply God's daughter!
