Peasant girl who traveled through time: I brought an earth with me
Chapter 97 Just donate money
The wood species used for wooden boxes are not expensive species.
The box is small and I don't know what is inside.
Look at the pain on her face when she puts the box on the tray.
Zhong Chuchu couldn't help but rolled her eyes in her heart.
Before she could do anything, the maid carrying the tray was already next to her.
The round-faced young lady sitting next to her took out an ordinary wooden box from her sleeve.
The movements are smooth and flowing, extremely natural and unrestrained.
He didn't seem to hear what was going on around him!
This move actually caused the female relatives sitting here to whisper to each other.
At this time, some of the daughters of various houses who were sitting in front of her, who had been chatting and laughing just now, covered their mouths and started laughing.
These ladies had arrived earlier, and they had gathered in small groups early, choosing those who were close to each other to sit together.
At this moment, because he was surrounded by familiar people, the conversation seemed even more unscrupulous.
One of them, a pretty young lady, covered her mouth and sneered:
"Sister, what do you think is in the box of the eldest lady of the Lan family?"
Sitting next to her, a pure woman gently picked up the hibiscus silk in her hand, covered her lips and smiled:
"This...Lan family is a well-known wealthy businessman in Yuyang County. No matter what, it must be a rare treasure!"
Her voice was thin and soft, which made people feel protective.
The lady before sneered:
"The Lan family is rich, but the eldest daughter of the Lan family is not. Who doesn't know that the head of the Lan family is the mother of the second Miss Lan."
Ha ha……
There was a burst of laughter all around.
The eldest lady of the Lan family's face was so red that she looked like she could bleed.
She pursed her lips and said nothing, but buried her head deeply in her arms.
Zhong Chuchu sat nearby, watching these ladies talking more and more.
“Magistrate Lu’s original intention in organizing this winter banquet was to let everyone contribute their love to the best of their ability.”
She said leisurely:
"There's no requirement for how much you have to donate, right? Did County Magistrate Lu set an invisible threshold? We people don't know about it? Then I'm going to ask!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the ladies around her looked sideways.
Someone just noticed that she was extremely beautiful and thought she was someone's young lady.
It's just that they didn't find out which family she belonged to, so everyone chose to keep silent to avoid offending people who shouldn't be offended.
Seeing her taking the initiative to speak at this moment, those young ladies who thought they had the highest family status choked and said:
"Which family are you from? Do you dare to state your name?"
"Haha, I'm just an ordinary person."
Zhong Chuchu chuckled and said:
"Ordinary people know that a gentleman does not judge other people's rights and wrongs, but you self-proclaimed ladies don't know that?"
"you……"
The charming young lady from before had not finished speaking.
He was grabbed by the person next to him:
"Don't be familiar with her, Mr. Mo is looking at me and our side!"
After the man finished speaking, he looked shy.
When the pretty young lady heard this, she turned around and saw that it was true.
She turned around and snorted at Zhong Chuchu with a cruel look on her face:
"An ordinary person has the nerve to come to the banquet. Maybe she is the wife of an outsider brought in by some master! I want to see what decent things you can come up with later, let alone the delicate jewelry that the master gave you. Take it out to save face!"
After she finished speaking, everyone around couldn't help laughing.
Immediately she looked back proudly, having changed into a calm and generous posture.
Zhong Chuchu didn't shy away from it, with a look of disdain.
The speed of changing faces is faster than that of Sichuan opera.
"You don't have to speak for me, they will hate you."
Zhong Chuchu saw that her eyes were red, and she had clearly cried just now.
"It's okay, I just can't stand them being like this."
she asked:
"What's your name?"
"My name is Lan Ruoyue, what's your name?" She whispered.
Zhong Chuchu smiled and said: "Zhong Chuchu."
The two looked at each other and smiled, as if they had known each other for many years.
The maids and servants in charge of registration were walking among the crowd.
Some large items will be registered and carried away by specialized personnel.
After the piano played two songs, the noisy sound also disappeared.
Mrs. Lu stood at the main table and ordered people to remove the food from the table.
Then more maids filed out, and a pot of jade snow tea was placed on each table.
The housekeeper took out a long gift list, wiping his sweat and reading each item.
The boys carried all the donations to the middle of the yard, and then exited in an orderly manner.
The huge yard was packed to the brim.
These many boxes and boxes of different sizes attracted almost everyone's attention.
"The Hou Yuan's wife is a pair of Yu Ruyi."
"Wang's house in the north of the city, a Langyao red pomelo vase with a straight mouth."
"Wu Yuan's wife, a tourmaline and jadeite bracelet."
……
Every time the butler read a name, there was a burst of applause.
Until he read:
"Young Master Mo Yu from the Mo family, a hundred taels of gold!"
There was a sound of gasping from below.
I have never seen anyone directly donate money during this winter banquet.
A hundred taels of gold is a thousand taels of silver.
I just read about the most expensive ice cracked jade tea set, which is worth only five hundred taels!
Which big family is this Mo family? Why have you never heard of it?
On the female side, many ladies are already whispering about his family background!
Such a wealthy and handsome young master from aristocratic family, isn't he exactly what they are looking for!
Some of the sly mistresses and wives have secretly ordered the maids behind them to go over and deliver the news to their masters.
It is necessary to find out the details of Mr. Mo.
Only Zhong Chuchu was drinking tea calmly below.
But there are still some regrets in my heart.
I still underestimated the strength of this Mo Jinzhu!
If I had known that whatever he donated would be a hundred taels of gold, I should have used gold as the unit when I made the price!
She made up her mind in her heart that if she did business with him in the future, she would definitely raise the price!
Mo Yu looked at her from time to time, and seeing her changing expression, he guessed that she must be holding back some bad idea.
Magistrate Lu was also greatly shocked.
His original intention was to raise money.
Holding this banquet and asking everyone to donate materials is actually just to make the name of fundraising sound better.
But every time these things are donated, they have to be converted into money, which is really troublesome.
What Mo Yu did today made him secretly praise him!
It would be great if everyone could donate money directly from now on!
Save yourself the trouble!
The next items that come to mind are no more exotic.
The housekeeper's saliva almost dried up while reading.
After finally seeing that the list was almost finished, I just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief.
A young boy ran up behind him and quickly handed him a note.
The housekeeper frowned, thinking that this boy was really ignorant, even if he could pass a note, he didn't say anything about handing him a glass of water.
Fortunately, the items behind him were all ordinary, and no one's attention was on him.
He opened the note and looked at it.
He was immediately shocked and speechless!
