Oops, I accidentally became the palm of a powerful official

Chapter 231

After bidding farewell to Lu Yi and walking on the path home, Bai Yu felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.She could feel Lu Yi's concern, and even relied on it.

Back home, the aunt hadn't slept yet, and had been waiting for her.

Knowing that the aunt also likes embroidery, and her skills are not bad, she held the handkerchief in front of the aunt and shook it.

"Ma'am, look at this handkerchief."

The aunt's eyes lit up, she quickly picked it up and walked to the front of the lamp, and looked carefully with the faint light.

"Wow, it's really beautiful, this stitch, this silk thread, how perfect! Such a thing can't come from a small place like ours!"

Bai Yu nodded, "Auntie, you are really smart! This is indeed bought from the capital, not from our place. It looks pretty good, right?"

"Yeah, that's great. Madam has never seen such a good handkerchief in her life. Where did you get it? It can't be from Shoufu University..."

When the aunt said this, she looked at Bai Yu's face.Just knew it wasn't like that.She felt a little embarrassed when she said something wrong.

Bai Yu was not angry, but she was a little disappointed. It would be great if Sheng Junze could give her such a thing!

She shook her head, "It wasn't given by Mr. Shoufu, and it's impossible for him to give me this kind of personal item because of his identity."

"So you bought it? It must not be cheap."

"I didn't buy it, but a friend gave it to me. They said they bought it in the capital. There are a lot of such things there, and they didn't cost too much money, just a few pennies."

Hearing this, the aunt shook her head, "No way, it's only a few pennies? Although I haven't seen anything in the world, aunt, I know that this kind of thing is very valuable. When I was a servant in a rich family, I saw It’s not so good, it’s worth tens of taels of silver. I think the silk and the embroidery are first-class.”

Bai Yu really liked this handkerchief, but he never expected it to be so good.She looked back and forth in disbelief, and believed what the aunt said.After all, my aunt had seen good things in a rich family before, if she hadn't been framed, she wouldn't have fallen to this point.

"Ma'am, I didn't expect this handkerchief to be so good, otherwise I wouldn't have accepted a gift from my friend." Thinking of Lu Yi's words, Bai Yu felt that he was really too stupid to believe so naively.

"What kind of friend actually gave such a good thing? It's not just a question of money, it also shows that he is very hardworking."

After hearing such words, Bai Yu fell silent.

After a brief silence, Bai Yu sighed, "I'm so stupid, I didn't expect him to lie to me. He said that there are such good things everywhere on the street stalls in the capital, so I Believe it. After all, I have never been to that kind of place, so I don’t know that he said these words to make me accept this handkerchief.”

"Although I don't know what kind of person your friend is, there is one thing I can be sure of, and it must be very good for you. Even if such things are everywhere in the capital, the material of this silk scarf is the same as that of the embroiderer. Handwork cannot be cheap. It seems that she is a very caring person, and she told such a lie in order to let you accept it with peace of mind."

"This person is real. Why do you want to do this? It makes me feel very sorry. No matter what? It's wrong to deceive people." Bai Yu said a little unhappy.

The aunt smiled and said calmly, "Don't say such a thing, even if it is a lie, it is a good intention. I think she must want to give you this handkerchief, but she is afraid that you will not accept it, so she has no choice but to give it to you." That’s why I said that. If you blame him for this, or even doubt his character, it’s really wrong.”

Bai Yu shook his head, "It's impossible for me to be such an unreasonable person. It's just that I feel very complicated now. I'm just an ordinary friend. Why did you give me such a valuable thing? Auntie, are you sure about this handkerchief?" Is it worth a lot?"

"I'm sure it's not an ordinary handkerchief, it should be custom-made. Even if it can't be said to be expensive, it's definitely not cheap. Are you sure you are just ordinary friends? Maybe that's just your wishful thinking, maybe it's in someone else's handkerchief. You are a special friend in my heart."

Hearing this, Bai Yu froze for a moment. Lu Yiyi was really nice to her, but he didn't think about that, because he felt that the two were just a relationship between superiors and subordinates. If it weren't for Sheng Junze, they wouldn't have known each other.Because I already have a man in my heart, how can I feel that other men treat me well?

She said embarrassingly, "Ma'am, don't make fun of me. A girl like me has no power, no power, and no family background. Who can appreciate it?"

"It's definitely not your family background that people look at, but you. Maybe it's because of the living environment, I think you have a little low self-esteem, but you are actually a very good girl. Since people are so interested in giving you gifts , there must be a reason."

"I knew I shouldn't have accepted it. I thought it was just an ordinary handkerchief." Bai Yu felt that accepting other people's things was disloyal to Sheng Junze.Although Sheng Junze didn't promise her anything, he didn't even say a word to her, let alone cared.

The aunt looked at her, thought for a while and said, "My aunt understands what you think in your heart. My aunt also understands your friendship with Mr. Shoufu, but I think it should be adoration and gratitude to a large extent! You don't want to Distinguish your own heart completely, if other men treat you well, you can also try to accept it."

Hearing such words, Bai Yu was very upset, "Ma'am, what are you talking about? Am I the kind of woman who is easygoing? Now that I have identified a man, I will stick to it for the rest of my life. Even if I can only look at it from a distance I am willing to follow him, or be his handmaid."

Seeing what she said so seriously, the aunt nodded quickly, "Don't be unhappy, the aunt is just talking casually, you can just follow your heart. Do what you think? Don't wrong yourself. Auntie, don't I don’t even think about it, I just hope you can find your own happiness.”

Bai Yu smiled wryly, "It's already good to be able to live peacefully. As for other things, I don't dare to expect too much."

"You child, don't think so. There is still a long way to go. Madam believes that you will be able to live well."

"I hope we can all have a good life. In fact, it's pretty good now." Bai Yu said with some satisfaction.
