Houmen maidservant, she doesn't want to be in power

Chapter 215 Early Winter Feast

"No." Shi Jin grimaced and refused to admit it.

Qi Mojing had no choice but to hold her hand, with an extremely doting voice, "Okay, ok, lord likes Shi Jin, okay?"

Shi Jin was so teased by him that he couldn't help but cracked his expression, wanted to laugh, but bit his lip again, "That's how it is."

Qi Mojing had never seen such a duplicity woman, so he had no choice but to follow her.But the words changed as they spoke, "Yes, I like Shi Jin, and I like it to the bottom of my heart. Although I am busy every day, I miss you all the time, and it hurts here. .”

He took her hand all the way down, and Shi Jin was startled.

Shi Jin blushed from being bullied by his rascal behavior, jumped up from the stone bench, and stumbled a little, "No, it's getting late, do you want to put the Kongming lantern?"

After saying this, she was so regretful that she wanted to bite off her tongue.

How did she get infected by Yao Qingqing?To the second master, you can't even speak clearly? !

It is true that the second master's morality is too deep, and even she follows the second master's shamelessness, but loses every time.

The second master saw that Shi Jin's face was flushed, and his eyes were filled with smiles. Si Jin pinched the Kongming lanterns together, took the torch and lit the fire, and let the Kongming lanterns blow away with the wind one by one.

As for the half sentence of love, the second master was still unwilling to let go, bluntly saying that if this half sentence was put in the sky, wouldn't his father see it clearly?

At that time, Shi Jin was surrounded by him and hid under the black cloak, looking up at the sky full of stars beside the stone table.

The stars in Luocheng are exceptionally cold and beautiful, hanging in the sky one by one, shining like gems.

But no matter how beautiful Xingzi is, her eyes are not as bright as Second Master's.

Even though it was such a cold day, Shi Jin's body was filled with heat. Apart from those eyes, she couldn't hold anything else in her mind.It's past midnight, and the plain noodles that have been prepared have cooled down completely.The second master has already been satisfied, and this year's birthday gift is very precious, so it is naturally worth going all out.

Shi Jin, with tears in his eyes, silently swears in his heart that he will never give any birthday gifts next year, lest he be bullied again, and there is not even a half-reasoner!
.
With Yue's deliberate support, Shi Jin was able to take the last seat at the banquet hosted by Aunt Xue.

There is only a banquet but no good banquet. The wives of the aristocratic family came to the banquet, and each of them represented the aristocratic family behind them.

As early as two days ago, the palace of a different surname made it known that Aunt Xue was going to hold an early winter banquet, but it was actually to raise money and food.

When Shi Jin was seated at the table, seeing Aunt Xue taking advantage of the simple arrangement of the banquet, she cried a lot.

"Sisters don't know that our Luocheng is desolate and withered, bordering both Dazhou and Qiangrong. Qiangrong has a prosperous nomadic pastoral industry, but it is difficult to survive the winter. Every winter, they will borrow food from Luocheng. The prince Afraid that the Qiang army would cause trouble, they had to borrow some food and grass to go out. That's all, but Da Zhou is not worrying. We are aristocratic families, to put it nicely, we are the clan of Luocheng. But if Luocheng falls, the first The first to suffer is us rich and noble families."

Speaking of this, she shed tears again, "It is said that it is the early winter banquet, so naturally I want to find my sisters and sisters to share the worries of the prince, so that we can spend this year together. Whether Luocheng can be as strong as a rock depends entirely on the sisters~"

She spoke pitifully and sweetly, but Shi Jin frowned and looked at the simple two-course food on his food table.One is pickled radish in sauce, and the other is stewed potatoes, which are really light and tight.

But Shi Jin was not even half moved by such a pitiful situation.In fact, we met at the racecourse a while ago. Aunt Xue was still wearing gold and silver. !

But there were some people who were willing to praise Aunt Xue's stinky feet, and Qian Wanwan was the one who started it.

I saw that she also shed tears along with Aunt Xue, "What is the sister talking about?! Luocheng is not only the Luocheng of the prince, but also everyone's Luocheng. Heels, you have to fully support the prince. Only my husband’s family is not obvious, the foundation is a bit weak after all, Wanwan is willing to start with 5 taels to help the prince tide over the difficulties!"

She said these words so vigorously that the eyes of all the noble ladies dropped out of shock.

In previous years, each family paid 8000 taels of silver, barely able to make ends meet.But this Qian Wanwan is good, she just opened her mouth for 5 taels, which is really the rhythm of emptying her family's wealth!
For a moment, everyone looked at Qian Wanwan as if they were looking at a fool.

But this fool is quite in line with Aunt Xue's wishes.I saw Aunt Xue touched the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, but the smile on the corner of her mouth could not be suppressed no matter how hard she tried.She still had to pretend to be grateful, and said pitifully, "I've known since I came here that Wanwan's heart is for the people of Luocheng. Xue'er thanked Wanwan here on behalf of the prince and the people of Luocheng."

After finishing speaking, she straightened up, bending her body so softly and weakly.

Shi Jin was dumbfounded.It was just these two careless words that stole 5 taels of silver? !

She can say good things, and she can do blessings, but you want to give her 5 taels of silver? !

No, five taels is fine!

She raced silently in her heart, and Qian Rao, who had always looked down on Qian Wanwan the most, also stood up.The difference was that she had a sneer on her face, "My sister is really generous! However, my Lu family is naturally not as wealthy as my sister, and I can't afford such a large amount of money, so I donated 5000 taels. Presumably, the prince can also understand that we are struggling to make a living."

Qian Wanwan saw that her first-in-law sister was crushed by her, and she couldn't help showing a look of pride in her eyes, "What about my sister? Who knows that the Lu family in Luocheng is comparable to the Ke family, and the luxury of the family is tight, so how can they even marry my sister?" Can't get out just [-] yuan?"

Her words were so bright that she put eye drops on Aunt Xue's face, and Qian Rao's chest heaved with anger.

There was also displeasure in Aunt Xue's eyes.Accustomed to the extravagance of the palace, she really didn't like the 5000 taels of silver.Immediately snorted coldly, "Mrs. Lu may have forgotten, what is this Luo Cheng's last name!"

Qian Rao smiled playfully, "Madam Xue, tell me, what is Luo Cheng's last name?"

Shi Jin also strained his ears to listen.

In the whole world, is it the land of the king?Could it be that Aunt Xue really dared to say that Luo Cheng's surname is Wenren?

However, these people have been in Luocheng for a long time, and Yelang's arrogance actually came into being.Aunt Xue snorted softly, "Luocheng is the prince's Luocheng, Madam is acting like an enemy of the prince?!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yue quickly stepped forward and tugged on Qian Rao's sleeve.

There was a proper smile on her face, "What's wrong with Madam Xue! Mrs. Qian was joking with Madam just now, why did she take it seriously!"

After saying that, she looked pained again, "Since Xiaoqian has donated 5 taels, it's hard to explain if we don't have it. Ke Mansion is willing to present 6 taels of silver to the prince this year. Qian's... 5 taels .”

After some hesitation, she spoke for Qian Shi.

Even though Qian Shi didn't want to, he didn't refute it after all.

With the wives of Ke Mansion and Lu Mansion leading the way, the rest of the wives also got three times more than before.

Just at the beginning of this time, it is like drinking poison to quench thirst, killing chickens to get eggs, especially for declining families, it is even more unbearable.

After all, Shi Jin was an insignificant person, holding only the remaining 1000 taels of silver bills, his brows were furrowed.

After staying so hard to escape from the banquet, she just felt extremely bored.

Wenren's palace is much bigger than she imagined, and even more luxurious than Jing'anhou's mansion.

It must have consumed a lot of manpower, financial and material resources to build such a house in this remote city of Luo.

While she was sighing, she unknowingly deviated from the main road, and after she realized it, she had already entered a mansion that could not be named.
