Chapter 18

Sitting in the carriage, Ji Wanyan and Lu Wanyan told them not to tell anyone about what they saw today, including Xiangjin.Although Green Maru doesn't know why, but she knows who she is loyal to. Only by following the fourth girl can she not have to go back to the rough room to do work. She also understands who gave her a good day today. The girl is like a cow and a horse.

What's more, the girl didn't let her be a bull or a horse, but just let her not talk too much.

Back in the mansion, Ji Wanyan first went to Songhe Courtyard, reported to the old matriarch, and presented the piano and a few chapters of the piano score that Mr. Liu gave her to the old matriarch, saying that it was the homework assigned by the old man. , naturally did not say that this is a priceless treasure handmade by the old man, the old lady only regards it as an ordinary qin, although she looks good, she will not be embarrassed by Ji Wanyan because of a qin.

After saying a few words, the old matriarch asked Ji Wanyan to go down and rest.

Xiangjin was eating melon seeds on the porch, and when she saw Ji Wanyan and the others coming back, she quickly hid the melon seeds in her pouch, went up to her, and said with a grin:
"The girl is back? It's cold outside. Come in quickly, the servant girl will make tea for you. Today, Mama Luo brought the girl a lot of things, all of which are for food, and there are many new things that the servant girl has never seen before." I've seen it before. It's just following the girl, so that the servants have gained some knowledge."

Xiangjin has always been able to speak well. When Ji Wanyan came from Yueyao Garden, she was immediately attracted by her lively personality, so that for a long time, she was better than Green Pill because she could talk and liked to talk, while Ji Wanyan Although I don't like to talk much, but I like to listen to other people's talk. This is also because I used to be alone in Yueyao Garden. When I walked in and out, there was only Mother Xu. It was rare to meet a girl of the same age, so I naturally wanted to get close.

She hooked her lips and smiled, Ji Wanyan didn't say much, but asked Luwan to put the qin on the table beside her bed, and then said to them: "I don't need to serve here anymore, I drank it at the old man's place earlier. There is a lot of tea, there is no need to make tea, you go down and have a rest, I also want to sleep for a while."

The two girls retreated in response, and when they reached the door, Ji Wanyan stopped him again and asked, "By the way, where is Mother Xu, why didn't you see her?"

Just as she was talking, Mother Xu came in from the outside. Ji Wanyan saw her cheeks were flushed and her eyes were bloodshot. Sitting on the little Arhat's bed, he asked:

"What happened to Mommy's face?"

Xu's mother's cheeks were unnaturally red, and she seemed to be able to see the finger prints. Xu's mother smiled awkwardly and said:

"No, it's nothing. Just, I broke a cup and got slapped by Liu Ping a few times. It's not a problem. It's Mama Xu's carelessness. Just be more careful next time."

Ji Wanyan did not speak, she is not a ten-year-old child, so she naturally knew that Xu's mother was beaten because of a cup, and Liu Ping was the daughter-in-law of the third wife, so it must not be a trivial matter to be able to work for her. It had something to do with their visit to Lin's that day, but Ji Wanyan didn't tell the truth. Since Mother Xu didn't want her to worry too much, it would be bad for her to ask more, as long as she was clear in her heart, it was enough.

"It's just a cup, and they are too much. Mom, don't be wronged, let's write down this account first, and I will definitely vent my anger on you."

Mother Xu is getting older, so she naturally knows that this is the fourth girl's words to comfort her. How can she vent her anger as a child? She doesn't want to spoil the girl's kindness, so she nods casually. Then she cheered up and said:
"Okay. Mom, don't feel wronged. Are you hungry, girl? I'll make you a bowl of noodles and serve it with your favorite bean paste, okay..."

Ji Wanyan shook her head, interrupted Xu's mother, pulled her behind the screen, and looked outside again to make sure that no one was there, then took out the bag of broken silver that she had been hiding in her sleeve.

"This is……"

Ji Wanyan pointed to the qin placed on the bedside table, and said softly:

"Today I went to the old man's place. The old man gave me a violin that my mother had put in his place. When I came back, I saw that the violin was too expensive, so I went to the violin store, sold it, and then bought another one. Take the cheaper ones, there is a lot of money, you take it away."

Mother Xu glanced at the qin and was a little surprised. However, she was Lin's dowry, so she naturally knew that Lin was indeed Mr. Liu's disciple. It was not surprising that there was one of her qin there. With a small face, Mother Xu sighed again. Poor girl, she has to worry about money at such a young age. It's rare that she is still so sensible.

Opening the purse, there were 30 taels of silver in it, and two 50 taels of silver bills. All of a sudden, they had more than 200 taels in their hands. The child wrapped the silver bag and put it in Ji Wanyan's wardrobe.
