Fair Lady

After leaving Xu's mansion, the aunt and sister-in-law did not go back to the mansion immediately, but let the carriage turn to the main street.They seldom go out of the house on weekdays. Since they came out, they wanted to go to Qiaoweiju to have a look.

There were many people on the road, and the carriage was going very slowly. When approaching the door of Qiaoweiju, Shuyao heard a sharp scolding voice: "Where did you come from, you little bastard, dare to bump into my old lady? Ah---, my new clothes! Don't Come on, you stop for me, you want to run after making my clothes like this? Come with Yinzi!"

Such a familiar sharp voice!Shuyao frowned, Zhao Erbao's daughter-in-law Cheng?Why is she swearing here?

A childish voice came: "Mother, I didn't hit her, she rushed out and knocked me down."

Cheng seemed to jump up again: "If you don't block the door, I will bump into you...no...will I be bumped by you?"

The person who answered the conversation was a nice but hoarse female voice at the moment: "Madam, this store is so big, how old is Bao'er? Why did you block the door? You rushed out suddenly and knocked down Bao'er. Didn't say anything."

Someone next to him quickly echoed:

"That's right, I saw this child go in cautiously from the very side, whose way is he blocking?"

"Isn't it? I rushed out like a gust of wind and hit my arm."

"It's really unreasonable. If you bump into someone, you don't apologize, and you bite back."

……

Cheng was in a hurry: "What nonsense are you talking about? Do you know who I am? I am the aunt of Yongping Hou Shizi, and this Qiaoweiju belongs to our family. If I stain my clothes, I will lose money."

"Master Shizi's aunt?" The beautiful female voice hesitated, "Our mother and son have just arrived here, and we really don't have any money on us. Or, tell me how much money you owe, and I will owe you when I find a job." , I will pay you back."

Mrs. Cheng glanced at the mother and son: "No money? I think the clothes on this kid are not bad? No money? You want to cheat my mother, right? Wait, looking for a job? How about it. My clothes cost two taels of silver. You come to work in my family’s pickle shop, and you will be paid ten cents a day, and you will have two meals for your mother and son, and you will be able to take advantage of it. Just working in my house for half a year is considered to be the loss of my clothes.”

"Bah," a woman immediately next to him said contemptuously: "Just your clothes, you can go to the sky for 0 cents, and how about two taels of silver? You don't even have eyes? Besides, the clothes are just dirty." .It didn’t break, why should people pay for it?”

Another woman said: "That's right. You bully other people from other places, right? Little lady, you don't have to be afraid of her, the masters of the Yongping Hou Mansion are all good people. Ah, isn't this aunt who wanted to plot against Yongping Hou Shizi that year?" The scoundrel whom the Lord made her son-in-law?"

Immediately, more people thought of it: "Oh, it's really, how can such a person have the nerve to come again? How dare you say that Qiaoweiju belongs to her family?"

A person dressed as the manager's mother of a rich family came out of Qiaoweiju with two boxes of snacks in his hand, and said with a "chi": "Yo. The mother and daughter just wanted to get snacks for nothing, but they didn't get it when they went out. Want to blackmail someone?"

Xinghua, who was standing next to her and was about to speak up to help her mother, heard someone mention the farce of the "marriage contract" back then.It was also pointed out that the dim sum she asked for in the store did not arrive, and she was brought out by saying "mother and daughter", and she was flushed with embarrassment, stomped her foot and left her mother and ran away.

Cheng's face was also flushed, but her skin had been tested for a long time, so she was naturally much thicker than Xinghua.Straining his neck, he drank: "How can I say that I am the aunt of the Shizi, and they dare to disobey me? If you keep talking nonsense, I will ask my niece and niece to send you all to prison."

Shuyao, who had already put on her veiled cap, got down from the carriage: "Aunt Cheng, our Yongping Hou Mansion doesn't have the right to send people to prison at will. Besides, my elder brother once explained to the county government that whether it is Yongping Hou Mansion His relatives are still servants, as long as they break the law and bully others, they will ask the county government to increase the punishment, and our Yongping Marquis Mansion will never allow and favor such people."

"Crackling!" The people watching around immediately applauded:

"Good job, let me say that the masters of the Yongping Hou Mansion are all good people, right?"

"That's right, Xia Butou...uh... How can the children taught by someone like Lord Yongping bully others?"

"That's it"

……

Nangongmiao said to her maid: "Hongxiu, give Aunt Cheng 0 cents, and treat it as compensation from the mother and son." It's like one hundred and sixty seventy words.

Mrs. Cheng thought it was too little, and was about to open her mouth when she heard Nangong Miao continue to say: "Give another two taels of silver to that lady, it is our Yongping Hou Mansion who shocked their mother and son, and it is also an apology. After all, Aunt Cheng is our Hou Mansion." His relatives are at the door of our Qiaowei residence again."

Cheng was in a hurry: "Why? Why? That little bastard bumped into me and stained my clothes. Why should I apologize? If you want to shock me, you will also shock me."

Mother Liu said to a guard next to her, "Send your uncle and wife back, and tell the second uncle what happened, and ask him to calm the second uncle and wife."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Cheng's expression changed drastically, and she snatched the purse containing the copper coins from Hongxiu: "I don't need him to deliver it, I don't need him to deliver it, I will go back by myself, our sauerkraut shop is very busy today, and the head of the house has no time." Talk to people." After speaking, he ran away in a hurry.

Just kidding, if the guard really "sends" her back and complains to Zhao Erbao, Zhao Erbao will not scare her, but "surprise" her.Zhao Erbao had warned her a long time ago that if she offends the niece and niece of the Yongping Hou Mansion again, she will be settled with the new and old ones, and she will be divorced directly.

Today's Zhao Erbao is not the talkative Zhao Erbao a few years ago. The honest man has finally been angered by her, and he reluctantly disobeyed his mother, Zhao He, and kept her for the sake of a pair of children, so the two Three years later, Mrs. Cheng was very "honest".

Xinghua's reputation was ruined because of that "marriage contract" farce, and she never talked about her marriage.Finally, a matchmaker came to the door, and she was talking about the only son of a merchant selling buns and steamed buns in a neighboring county. It's barely noticeable behind platform shoes.The young man is four years older than Xinghua, and he looks upright.

For Xinghua, who has a bad reputation and can't get high enough to get low, this is already a good marriage.

And that family is quite satisfied, firstly, Xinghua looks really good-looking, and secondly, the Zhao family is relatives of the Yongping Hou Mansion after all, although Xinghua's mother and daughter offended the eldest son, but the three brothers and sisters of the Hou Mansion are all serious. Good people with love and righteousness, as long as they don't do evil, if something happens, I believe they will definitely not stand by and do nothing to help.It is not easy for a small merchant family to have such a noble relative as a backer.

It was arranged that tomorrow the man and the matchmaker would come to the Zhao family to make an appointment. In order to save face, and also to show the relationship between her family and the Yongping Hou Mansion, Xinghua wanted to entertain her prospective in-laws with Qiaoweiju's snacks because she could use her airs in the future. , Let them carry a box back when they are done.

But Qiaoweiju's snacks are terribly expensive, so she was reluctant to spend money on them, so she took the risk of being known by Zhao Erbao and wanted to get them for nothing, but the two guys didn't want to buy them. Dim sum must be paid in cash. This is the rule of Qiaoweiju and Michelle Tofu Square, no matter which one is the same.

Cheng and Xinghua were annoyed, but they didn't dare to make a fuss, so they rushed out angrily, and knocked down Xiao Baoer who was about to enter the store.When the child fell backwards and fell to the ground, he instinctively grabbed Cheng's beanie. His little hands were dirty and left two small handprints on the beanie.

That's how it went.

Seeing Cheng's panic-stricken escape, everyone burst into laughter.The woman who pointed out that Cheng's clothes were not worth two taels of silver said to Bao'er's mother: "Little lady, tell you that the people in the Yongping Hou Mansion are all good people! Why don't you thank Mrs. Shizi and the Xia family girl?"

At this time, Hongxiu just took two taels of silver and handed it to Bao Erniang.

Baoerniang didn't reach out to pick it up, but just stared at Nangong Miao and Shuyao in a daze, but unfortunately they were both wearing veiled hats, so she couldn't see their faces.

Shuyao was also looking at Bao'erniang in surprise. This woman looks like her mother, but younger than her mother. She should be only 24 or [-] years old, and she is much darker than her mother.Also, Mother has a mole between her right eyebrows, but Mother Bao does not.

Heh, just because of this fate, I should help her today.

Nangong Miao also had a look of surprise on her face. What surprised her was how could this Bao'er mother resemble Yao'er?

"Why are you in a daze? Those two are our Shizi's wife and girl." Hongxiu lightly touched Bao'erniang's hand in a funny way, "Ah, are you sick? Why are your hands so cold?"

Bao'er cried: "My mother has been ill for several days, but the money for the medicine was stolen. We only ate once in the past two days. I wanted to go in and ask for a piece of cake for my mother."

Nangong Miao saw that Bao Erniang's expression was really bad, so she turned her head and said to Hongxiu, "Send her to the medical clinic in front first, and pay all the medical expenses, and then leave ten taels of silver for their mother and child. By the way, Hongxiu clothes, you go in and pack a few pieces of snacks and come out to feed them first, and if you go hungry, the children will be hungry and sick."

Bao'er bowed deeply: "Thank you, thank you, in the future when Bao'er has money, he will definitely return it twice."

Everyone laughed in good faith when they heard such a four or five-year-old child say, "If you have money, you will get it back twice."Nangong Miao and Shuyao also laughed, but they were a little curious about the little Bao'er. The child's face was grateful, but not humble. He seemed to have an innate aura. Although his clothes were dirty , a little embarrassing, but the material is quite good.This mother and son should not be ordinary people!

Before leaving, Baoerniang took another deep look at Shuyao: "Thank you, my name is Mo Niang, I will not take your money for nothing, when I recover from illness, I will work for you to pay off your debts, and I will do many things.
