Chapter 63 Buying a coffin and returning a pearl
Yunling couldn't help but think of something.
As long as I dump the blame quickly enough, the mistakes will never catch up with me!
Okay, she admits defeat, who made her talk too much just now?
Seeing that Hong Mian was still shedding tears, she hurriedly said: "Don't cry, don't cry. The reason why I told you not to fight just now was for the sake of your young lady!"
Two pairs of eyes were fixed on her, and even the shopkeeper on the side also looked at Yunling, listening to her "quibble".
No, listen to her reasoning!
Yunling gritted her teeth and said, "Have you ever heard of the story of buying a wooden box and returning the pearls? Is it the story of buying a wooden box but returning the pearls? Is the person in this story famous for not distinguishing priorities, so that others say After so many years?"
Huang Xi and Hong Mian didn't understand this. They only had a rough idea of the general meaning, but they still didn't quite understand the connection between the two. However, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up and he somewhat agreed: "Yes, yes, you two are right." Don’t worry, the screen frame is just superficial, the most important thing is whether the screen itself looks good or not!”
He is also afraid of offending others, so he can only make up for it.
Yunling nodded towards him and explained seriously: "Your lady wants this screen just to give it as a gift, right? In fact, as long as the pictures I embroider are good enough, I can make it even with a beech wood screen."
As she spoke, she gossiped: "Is that girl Qu also planning to give the screen away? Is it the same person your young lady is giving it to?"
Hong Mian nodded: "Mrs. Zhao's birthday is next month, and Miss Qu should be preparing for this too."
Then he said bitterly: "I don't know where she got the news. I even suspect that she came here specially to rob her! She must have wanted to compare my young lady's courtesy so that Mrs. Zhao could choose her... ..”
"Ahem." Huang Xi coughed hard, looking very embarrassed.
Yunling understood instantly.
Hey, isn't it just a fight for favor in the back house?
I guess that Mrs. Zhao has a son of the right age, right? To put it bluntly, Miss Qu and Miss Zheng are competitors.
I didn’t expect that it was just a small county government house with so many twists and turns!
Yunling was afraid that Miss Zheng would get angry at her because of the screen, so she said: "Comparison is harmful. For the screen, you still have to look at the embroidery in the middle, right? Don't worry, I am very confident in my embroidery. It can compare with that of Miss Naqu."
She thought for a moment and said to the shopkeeper: "Choose a screen frame of about fifteen taels."
The shopkeeper was very surprised, "Girl, I actually have something better than black gold wood, but it's more expensive..."
There is no need to settle for second best, and retreating too much is too much.
But Yunling said, "It's okay, I just want fifteen taels."
Hongmian originally wanted to bite the bullet and go over the budget and buy a better one, but when he heard Yunling's words, he couldn't help but said in surprise: "Miss Tang, it's not good to buy something that's too cheap."
Yunling shook her head and said with a smile: "Listen to me, just buy this, and tell your lady what you saw and heard today. She will understand and won't blame you."
Hong Mian seemed to understand, but Huang Xi felt relieved.
What a smart little girl!
After another five hours of running around, Yunling finally returned to Nanfeng Inn and collapsed on the bed.
The speeding trip was too bumpy, and she had to ask Lao Qi to remodel the carriage!
Seeing her return, everyone in the Tang family finally felt relieved.
Mrs. Wu hugged her into her arms, "Don't take such risks in the future. Grandma, as long as everyone is safe and let the men earn other things, nothing can happen to my good girl."
She had been worried about this for a whole day and two nights, and by this moment she was starting to speak a little incoherently, shouting out the nickname she used to call Yunling when she lived in the village.
Hong Mian returned to Zheng Rongwan's boudoir and hurriedly told what happened.
"So, you just listened to Miss Tang and bought that huanghuali shelf for fifteen taels of silver?" Zheng Rongwan asked in a very calm tone.
Hong Mian nodded nervously and said hesitantly: "Miss Tang said you would definitely agree, and she also said she wouldn't blame her... Manager Huang and I were going to persuade her to buy a better one, but she just said The one who insisted that it only cost fifteen taels. I, I..."
She was very nervous.
Zheng Rongwan played with the cat butterfly fan in her hand and looked at the shimmering pearls on it by the light. After a while, she suddenly smiled.
"She is very smart, and I like her very much." There seemed to be a sense of ease in her tone.
what?
Hongmian suddenly didn't understand what his lady was talking about.
Zheng Rongwan didn't explain much, just nodded to her and said: "You have worked hard too, go back and rest early today, and come back to my room tomorrow.
Oh, by the way, I don’t need to look at that shelf. You can just find someone to deliver it to Miss Tang at Nanfeng Inn tomorrow. "
"Yes."
Hong Mian retreated as instructed.
In the Xinuang Pavilion in the main courtyard behind the county government office, there was also a man who looked like a boy lying under the window sill, reporting news inside.
"I went to look at it. It was just an ordinary huanghuali, far less luxurious than the girl's. In my opinion, you shouldn't scratch it with a knife anymore, right? If you do, it will cause trouble. By then... ..”
"Huanghuali's?" Qu Wanwan was a little surprised.
She actually regretted it after grabbing the things.
The more I thought about it while sitting in the carriage, the more I felt something was wrong.
Master Zheng loves Zheng Rongwan very much, so in addition to the monthly allowance, Zheng Rongwan will also receive subsidies from his parents every month, so he will definitely not have only thirty taels like her.
I snatched such an expensive ebony wood shelf in a fit of enthusiasm. There was no guarantee that they wouldn't find a more luxurious one. Didn't I have to work hard in vain and still be laughed at?
Unexpectedly, that girl from Hongmian actually bought a more common and cheaper one.
What kind of trouble is this?
The young boy had benefited a lot from Qu Wanwan in the past, but he did not dare to offend Master Zheng's family, so he patiently persuaded: "Miss Qu, you are our madam's niece. No matter what gift you give, madam will always I only want to kiss you. Maybe they know that no matter how much money they spend, they can’t beat you, so they give up."
Qu Wanwan smiled again after hearing this.
Yes, she and her aunt are naturally the closest, otherwise her aunt wouldn't have kept her by her side for so many years. How can Zheng Rongwan, a master's daughter, compare to her?
The second cousin is naturally hers too.
So, she nodded and agreed with the young man's statement, "You know it's okay to back down when faced with difficulties. If that's the case, then don't do it. But..."
She frowned, feeling that the little girl next to Hongmian today was a bit unusual, and she had a bad feeling in her heart.
So he added: "You should pay more attention to see what Zheng Rongwan wants to embroider."
Thinking of Zheng Rongwan's embroidery work, he sneered again.
"Keep an eye on it. If Zheng Rongwan goes to someone outside to embroider it, you should also find out for me which one it is."
