The second sister smiled: "Sister Ruan didn't want to go when she heard that she was asked to go to Zhang Mansion alone."

"Director Su asked me to accompany her, so I had no choice but to go along!"

"Sister Ruan still wants to recommend it. Manager Su said that the embroidery customized by the Zhang family was embroidered by sister Ruan, so she must do it."

"Sister Ruan had no choice, so she went reluctantly!"

"Then why did Madam Zhang San scold her?" Wang asked while frying shredded radish pancakes.

The second sister frowned and curled her lips: "Hey, I don't know what kind of medicine that Mrs. Zhang took wrong."

"As soon as she took over the embroidery, she started to criticize Sister Ruan with all her nose and eyes..."

"They also said that the work done by Sister Ruan, a second-class embroidery girl, is not as good as that of her little maid!"

"What are you talking about in a weird way? Some people are not very good at their jobs and have a lot of evil intentions..."

"Oh, I heard, she is just scolding Sister Ruan!"

"Haha, she means Sang Shu Huai," Wang Yugui laughed.

After hearing this, the second sister looked at Wang Yugui and said, "Brother, what does it mean to accuse mulberry trees and scold huai trees?"

"To point at the mulberry tree and scold the locust tree is to point at the mulberry tree and scold the locust tree." Wang Yugui finished one radish cake and took another.

The second sister swallowed: "Oh, I think Mrs. Zhang San is beating a chicken and scolding a dog!"

"She even slapped a maid, telling her to stop being a monster, or else she would be beaten to death!"

"Oh, did his wife know about Miss Ruan and Young Master Zhang?" Mrs. Wang frowned again.

Wang Yugui nodded: "I think so, otherwise Mrs. Zhang San would be so angry!"

Then he asked the second sister: "How will Miss Ruan react? Should she just scold her?"

"Hey, when Mrs. Zhang San found fault with the embroidery, Sister Ruan retorted."

"Later, when the third lady hit chickens and scolded dogs, and pointed at mulberry trees and scolded huaihuai trees, Sister Ruan couldn't reply, but her face turned pale with anger!" said the second sister.

Mrs. Wang hurriedly asked: "Second sister, that third lady didn't scold you, did she?"

"No, I'm just a little girl who followed me. Why is she scolding me? She's been staring at Sister Ruan!"

"Oh, that look is so vicious and disgusting!"

"What does Madam Zhang San look like? Is she good-looking?" Wang Yugui was curious.

The second sister thought for a while: "Hey, I can't say she's particularly good-looking, but she's not ugly either, but she's far behind compared to Sister Ruan!"

"Oh, by the way, there are two aunties who are helping me!"

"Auntie? Is she the concubine of Third Master Zhang?" After hearing this, Mrs. Wang frowned again.

The second sister nodded: "It seems so. Hey, I didn't dare to ask. I was just listening to them talking next to Sister Ruan!"

"Oh, this house is quite messy. Oh, okay, second sister, there's no need to light the fire, this pot is all ready."

"Get up, wash your hands, and go eat," Wang said with a smile.

When the second sister heard about it, she quickly agreed and got up to wash her hands.

Wang Yugui saw that it was getting late, so he went to the front and asked his elder sister to close the shop, and they went to the backyard to eat shredded radish cakes.

After the second sister washed her hands, she ran to the main room and started eating cakes. While eating, she continued: "Oh, by the way, finally, Mrs. Zhang San also said that she wanted Zhang Yuanwai to divorce Sister Ruan's parents!"

"I said I'm tired of eating and want to find a new cook!"

"Oh, what did Ruan Dongmei say?" Wang Yugui asked hurriedly, thinking that the third lady doesn't seem to be easy to mess with either!

The second sister said: "Sister Ruan sneered and took me away!"

"Oh" Wang Yugui was a little surprised. Ruan Dongmei was so quick-thinking that he really couldn't figure her out.

The eldest sister didn't understand and asked the second sister what happened to Ruan Dongmei?

The second sister told the eldest sister about the matter. The eldest sister was not surprised after hearing this. She just smiled and said, "Sister Ruan brought this on herself. Why bother with that Mr. Zhang!"

The second sister suddenly remembered something and said to Wang Yugui: "Brother, will you go to our embroidery workshop tomorrow?"

"I seem to have heard from the masters today that they want to invite you to the embroidery workshop to produce prototypes!"

"Well, your manager Su has already come to invite me. I will go to the embroidery workshop with you tomorrow morning." Wang Yugui nodded.

……

Early the next morning, Wang Yugui and his second sister went to Lu's Embroidery Workshop.

When passing by the embroidery girls' workshop, Wang Yugui looked inside but did not see Ruan Dongmei.

Wang Yugui worked in the embroidery workshop for two consecutive days before he finished all the sample drawings of the cat and panda.

The embroidery workshop paid fifty taels of silver for the painting, and Wang Yugui was very satisfied. As long as Lu had orders, he would make money.

With Lu's list, he can study more steadily and prepare for the exam.

Three days later, the second sister brought back the wedding candies of Jin Baochai and Painter Xiao Qi.

"Did Miss Jin hire someone from your embroidery workshop when she got married?" asked the eldest sister

The second sister shook her head: "No, their family doesn't have a big business, and Painter Xiao Qi's family doesn't have a big business either."

"I heard that the old painter Qi said that it is just a renewal, and there is no need to make such a big show."

"Oh, this old painter Qi is a bit of a bully, isn't he? Xuxian is also getting married, so why did he neglect Miss Jin?" said Wang dissatisfied.

The second sister smiled: "Mom, there are still some etiquette, but it's just a little simpler!"

"Haha, mother, Miss Jin doesn't mind, why are you angry!" Wang Yugui smiled

Mrs. Wang also smiled: "Hey, didn't Mom avenge Miss Jin's injustice? To be honest, Miss Jin is quite a nice person, and Mom quite likes him!"

"It doesn't matter if they don't do it in a big way, but if they invite my brother, he has to be polite." The eldest sister laughed.

Then he asked the second sister: "After Miss Jin gets married, will she still work in your embroidery workshop?"

"Well, I will continue to do it. I didn't hear that she quit her job!" The second sister nodded.

Three days later, the second sister brought back even more exciting news: Ruan Dongmei also got married.

"Who is Miss Ruan married to?" Ms. Wang asked quickly

The second sister sighed and smiled again: "Guess!"

"You have to guess, oh, she won't really marry that Mr. Zhang, right?" The eldest sister laughed.

Everyone looked at the second sister, who nodded and sighed: "Sister Ruan is going to marry Young Master Zhang!"

"She became Mr. Zhang's concubine, right?" Wang Yugui frowned and sighed secretly, Ruan Dongmei became a concubine after all!

She knew that there were tigers in the mountains, so she went to the tiger mountains.

The second sister nodded: "Yes, I heard that her family received a lot of gifts from the Zhang family!"

"Oh, how much is the dowry her parents gave her?" the eldest sister was curious.

Mrs. Wang smiled: "Silly girl, a girl doesn't need a dowry when she becomes a concubine!"

"But their family received a bride price." The second sister didn't understand.

Mrs. Wang sighed again: "Yes, the bride price is equivalent to the money they paid to sell their daughter. They just collect it without any dowry!"

"Ah, I heard that Sister Jin was given a dowry when she got married," the second sister said again.

Mrs. Wang smiled: "Miss Jin was married by a matchmaker, and her family received the betrothal gift from the Qi family, so naturally there will be a dowry!"

"The Jin family is marrying off their daughters, not selling them!"

"Ah, then, did Sister Ruan's parents sell their daughter?" The second sister was surprised.

Wang Yugui nodded: "That's about it!"

Wang Yugui also knew something about the etiquette of marrying wives and taking concubines in ancient times.
