The concubine doesn't fall in love, but crazy critics insist on holding her responsible

Chapter 10 The wrongdoer who pays the bill
"The weather is nice today, the sun is warm and my sister is recovering from a long illness. Why not go for a walk?"

"Where?"

Xie Yiwan smiled and said vividly: "Let's go to Jizhen Pavilion. I heard that a lot of new things have come to Jizhen Pavilion recently. There are corals and pearls collected from the vast ocean. The pearls are as big as a fist and they are shining brightly." , and many imported products from overseas!”

"The Yuyi Workshop next door has also made many new dresses with good styles, and the materials are all of the highest quality. Princess Yong'an's colorful dress was made by the embroiderers of the Yuyi Workshop, and Princess Fukang is also a regular customer there."

Lin Zhiyu hesitated, not very interested.

Xie Yiwan paused for a moment, then said seductively: "Sister, do you know about peepshows and music boxes? I heard people say that the music box can play beautiful music anytime and anywhere without any human effort. The music is light and clear, and it is small and can be carried around. Our Jiaowei Qin is ten times and a hundred times more convenient."

"My sister's maternal grandfather's family was in business. They traveled all over the country and saw a lot of things. They love you. My sister must have seen this before, right? Unlike me, who stays in the inner courtyard of a deep house-"

His tone was envious, but he suddenly covered his mouth mid-sentence, "I'm sorry, sister said the wrong thing. I didn't mean to mention it... Can you forgive me, sister?"

Xie Yiwan apologized because Lin Zhiyu's relationship with her maternal grandfather's family was not as close as she said.

The world's prejudice against businessmen is the main reason. Because of Xie Yiwan's instigation, Lin Zhiyu in her previous life always felt that all the unfair treatment on her came from this.

She felt ashamed, and even more resented that her background caused her to lose the love of her father and the respect of her relatives and friends.

Therefore, they deliberately distance themselves, contradict each other, and hurt the hearts of their loved ones.

Little did they know that this was all a plan by the second brother-in-law. They had long since set their sights on the rich man of the Shen family. They spoke with disdain for businessmen like everyone else, but secretly they had already been involved in the business world and competed with the Shen family for business.

In the previous life, they succeeded.

Shortly after Shen's death, they took advantage of their grandfather and uncle's family to rob the property in Shen's name while their grandfather and uncle's family were immersed in grief. They then framed and framed the Shen family, swallowing up the Shen family step by step, causing the Shen family to be destroyed.

Hatred swirled in Lin Zhiyu's heart. In this life, they would never succeed again!
Xie Yiwan deliberately mentioned the Shen family just to disturb her mind and increase the chance of tricking her into going out.

Lin Zhiyu pretended to be embarrassed and shook her head, "Sister, there is no need to blame yourself. I have never seen what you are talking about."

"Then let's go out and have a look! I've ordered people to prepare the carriage and horses. There's a stove inside so it won't get cold. There are also your favorite preserved fruits and snacks, and some hot fruit wine!"

Going shopping together was not uncommon in the previous life, it could even be said to be extremely frequent.

Every time he expressed his gratitude, Wan was shy in his pocket, or had his eye on something expensive, so he would always invite Lin Zhiyu to go with him in the name of company.

He talks about broadening his horizons with her, but in the end Lin Zhiyu will become the one who pays the bill with his bag, a perfect victim.

However, she was not angry yet and was extremely grateful. She thought that Xie Yiwan was doing her own good and was willing to get close to her and help her make friends.

Xie Yiwan's current plan is nothing more than preparing for a private meeting with Pei Shi on the sixth day of the lunar month.

In the previous life, on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, the two became husband and wife, and their relationship took a further step. Then they began to conspire to destroy her reputation and make her embarrassed in public. Her reputation plummeted, and she had to break off the engagement. She was tied to Xiao Xuan for the rest of her life. .

Seeing that Lin Zhiyu didn't respond for a long time, Xie Yiwan was secretly worried, "Don't say no! You have been locking yourself in the room and being bored a few years ago. Are you still worried about that incident and are afraid of being criticized when you go out? Dao Si?"

"That's not your fault! It's those gangsters who are at fault! If anyone dares to gossip behind his back, I will make that person miserable! If there is anything you can't figure out, or if I can help, just ask Say, I will do my best!”

Mrs. Xie also helped, "Yes, fourth girl, although your second sister is only one year older than you, she knows much more than you and is more considerate in her behavior than you. You should talk to her more and learn from her." .”

"It's time for you to change your temper. How can you be timid and fearful? You will be old enough at the end of spring, and you will marry into your husband's family. If you continue to behave like this, you will be bullied."

Lin Zhiyu only listens but does not answer. He listens more and learns more. Does it sound like he has been brainwashed and manipulated?
But since they put their faces under her slap, they shouldn't blame her for being ruthless.

*
Half an hour later, Lin Zhiyu got on Xie Yiwan's carriage.

But besides Xie Yiwan, there were two more people on the carriage - the two concubines from the second room, Xie Lin and Xie Ya.

The two sisters also came to pay their respects. When they heard someone could take advantage of them from a distance, they immediately rushed up like blood-sucking leeches and followed whatever they said.

Xie Yiwan looked down on them, but she did not refuse them as before. She was not the one who paid for them in the end. They were all here to make Lin Zhiyu suffer and vomit blood, so why not do it.

Jizhen Pavilion is located on the most prosperous street in the east of the city. It is the New Year, and the street is busy with entertainers and snacks.

In the past, Xie Lin and Xie Ya would have gotten out of the car and taken a stroll, but today they plunged into Jizhen Pavilion. They had also heard about those overseas objects and had been longing for them for a long time.

You must know that these rare things have traveled across the ocean, and not just anyone can buy them at will. Either they are rich and willing to pay a high price, or they are well-known and respected abroad, but Xie Lin and Xie Ya have neither of these two things.

And they are greedy for vanity. If they can get even one of them, it will be enough for them to show off in their own small circles.

A group of four people, two in front and two in back, entered Jizhen Pavilion.

Xie Yiwan was a frequent visitor here, and even though she saw many things she had never seen before, she was still quite calm. On the other hand, Xie Lin and Xie Ya were like monkeys entering the peach garden, running around and excited.

"Wow, is this a portrait of a foreigner? The ink used in this painting is so gorgeous!"

"Foreigners actually look like this. Their noses are so big, and their eyes seem to be sunken, like wild monkeys..." Xie Yiwan listened to the two laughing and shouting, contempt flashed in her eyes, and she silently moved aside A few steps away from it.

Then his eyes fell on Lin Zhiyu, "Is there anything you like, sister Zhiyu?"

Lin Zhiyu let Xie Yiwan hold her arm, "It's too many. I haven't been here for a long time. As the second sister said, there are many new things here."

Before he finished speaking, he lowered his head as before and whispered: "I'll just follow the second sister."

"You, your temper is too reserved, that's all, just follow me. Ever since you were a child, why haven't you relied on me?"

Sighing, secretly proud.

Lin Zhiyu just smiled and said nothing.

Youxiantai, Qinglanggan, Qi Nanxiang, Maoeryan... When they saw the gold-rimmed Western glasses on the ebony booth, they stopped in unison.

The shopkeeper hurried over.

"Are you two ladies interested in these Western glasses? These Western glasses are made by famous artists, with exquisite materials and unique manufacturing methods. Please take a look at these temples. They are also engraved with names. They are unique..."

Tongue Canlianhua introduced it, and at the same time opened the showcase and took it out for the two of them to take a closer look.

Before that, Xie Lin and Xie Ya had been standing in front of the booth studying for a long time, but they were ignored and were not qualified to start.

The shopkeeper's different treatment made the two sisters dissatisfied.

But since Lin Zhiyu had to pay for it later, he could only suppress his anger, stretch his neck and grit his teeth as he waited.

The shopkeeper finished the introduction eloquently, but when he took out the Western glasses, it was difficult for him to decide who should deliver them first.

In the past, these Western glasses would have been shown to Xie Yiwan first, but today...

The shopkeeper's eyes glanced at Lin Zhiyu inadvertently. After doing business for a long time, watching people order dishes has already been engraved in his bones. In addition, the shopkeeper usually receives high-ranking officials and dignitaries, and he is even more sensitive to the aura of the superiors.

In a daze, he felt that this girl Lin was very different from before.

But for just a moment, Zhangui shook his head and was annoyed. He must have gone crazy. It was not the first time he saw Lin Zhiyu. The girl was still the same girl, but she had changed her clothes.

Lin Zhiyu still looked very dependent on Xie Yiwan as before. She was timid, as if she would crawl into the cracks of the ground without anyone around her.

What a blur!
The tray was pushed neatly towards Xie Yiwan.

Xie Yiwan's eyes and brows were full of satisfaction, and she pretended to be angry: "You, the old shopkeeper, really don't know how to handle things. I came with my sister today, how could you give it to me?"

The shopkeeper was busy apologizing, but he complained that it was the same every time. Who knows who of you will accompany whom this time.

Lin Zhiyu did not give in. Under the gaze of Xie Yiwan and the envious gaze of Xie Lin and Xie Ya, she took the Western glasses in her hand.

The lenses are crystal clear, and the gold rim is elegant and luxurious. In addition to the string of Western characters on the narrow frame, there are also intricately carved flowers, plants, birds and animals, which are extremely exquisite.

"Miss, you can try it on and walk around the main hall to feel the difference."

The shopkeeper had his own little idea in saying this. Although Miss Lin had a poor reputation and a dull head, she had a beautiful face, and the tattered grass branches pinned to her head looked like they were coated with moonlight.

She was dissatisfied with the glasses when she put them on, but by chance the buyers on the sidelines saw them and took a fancy to them. Is the sale still far away?
This made Xie Lin and Xie Ya anxious, who also wanted to play with them.

Following Lin Zhiyu as she walked around and around the main hall, Xie Ya's anxiety reached its peak and she couldn't help but said: "Fourth sister, these glasses are so ugly when you wear them. You don't look like a fool, but you look stupid. Hurry up." Pick it off! Don’t let anyone read the joke!”

"Sister, what you said is more direct, but I really can't bear for you to continue to embarrass yourself. What do you think, second sister?"

Xie Ya knew that Lin Zhiyu cared most about how others looked at her, waiting to see her panic and run away.

"Shut up! Stop talking nonsense!"

Xie Yiwan opened her mouth to reprimand, but that was all she said.

Xie Yiwan wished that Xie Lin and Xie Ya would say more words to humiliate Lin Zhiyu. She still remembered the grudge for snatching the bracelet.

Lin Zhiyu looked innocent and did not show any embarrassment on his face.

She didn't take off her glasses, she just raised her head and stared at Xie Ya carefully, breath after breath, which made Xie Ya's heart tremble.

Xie Ya subconsciously stepped back, "You, what are you looking at!"
