"My mother will make better jewelry for you in the future. Now my mother needs some money to turn around, so you can just give it to me."
"Mother, Chinese New Year is coming soon, how can I not have a new jewelry on me? I will be laughed at by others!" Seeing so many beloved jewelry being taken away, how could Shen Jingya be willing? During the Chinese New Year, everyone has to wear new clothes and jewelry. Now that she is getting older, she loves beauty the most, but how can she be compared to others
"Just be obedient, and mother will give you a few days, and then I will give you something better." Seeing that his daughter refused to let him take the jewelry away, Guo Yuanshuang was a little angry, and felt that his daughter really didn't understand the priorities. .
She lost so much money, and even used public funds to put loan sharks. This is a big deal. If she is found out, she will not be able to gain the old lady's trust in the future! So she must take out the three thousand taels, even if she sells all the jewelry she has secretly saved all these years, she still has to make up enough!
"Mother..." Looking at Guo Yuanshuang aggrievedly, Shen Jingya's life as Guo Yuanshuang's butler these years is similar to that of Shen Jingshu. She has always thought that these are what she deserves, and she usually spends a lot of money and has a lot of jewelry, but many people are envious. Now that things have been taken away, how can she do this
"Ya'er, mother has no choice but to do this. You are obedient. Mother will make up for you at that time, and she will definitely make up for you twice. How about that?" Guo Yuanshuang was actually a little bit sorry for his daughter's jewelry, but what's the matter? how? Now I can only deal with it first, and everything will be easy to handle when the loan sharks come back in a few days.
Get over it!
"Mom, is what you said true?"
"Naturally it is true!"
"Then when? I don't want to be too shabby during Chinese New Year!"
"Don't worry, my mother is just not rich for the time being, and she will be fine soon, and I will definitely buy you many good ones then."
"Okay, mother, you can take it, but you have to leave some for me..." Although Guo Yuanshuang had promised, Shen Jingya was still reluctant to part with so many jewelry all of a sudden.
"I've already left some for you. Many of them belong to you before, and they are not the ones you often wear. I haven't moved the ones you often wear. Don't worry!" There is always something on the daughter. Is it suspicious? Even if Guo Yuanshuang wanted to sell it, he could only get the ones that Shen Jingya didn't plan to wear for the time being, or the ones that she didn't wear often.
The price of those new jewelry is more expensive, of course Guo Yuanshuang also took it, anyway, there is no rush to wear it now, just deal with a few of them first.
"Well, mother, remember to buy it for me quickly, otherwise I will be too embarrassed to go out to meet people during the Chinese New Year." In the past, she had a lot of jewelry and clothes, which made many people envious of her, thinking that she was the eldest daughter of the second wife. The woman's life is more beautiful than many long-term houses. That's something she's always been proud of, and she can't make it a joke this year.
"Well, but you have to remember that you are not allowed to tell others about this matter, otherwise, mother will not be able to give you whatever you want in the future, you know?" Guo Yuanshuang did not dare to tell others about the usury. It is possible to tell the person she serves personally, but no one else knows about it.
"Well, I know, mother!" Nodding her head, although Shen Jingya didn't know about Guo Yuanshuang's usury, she also knew that she had a better life than many people. many. This is also due to her mother's current housekeeper. Of course, she knows that her ability to live well has a lot to do with Guo Yuanshuang's housekeeper. Shen Jingya is not that stupid.
"It's good that you know, then you continue to copy the book, and I will find a way to beg your grandmother to let you out after a while!"
"Number, you have to hurry up. It seems that the Chinese New Year is about to come, how can I stay in this room all the time?" The Chinese New Year is to drop by. When the time comes, everyone will envy her and compliment her. She is very happy. happy.
"Qi Ge'er is still not healed, and your grandmother's anger is not gone. After a while, Qi Ge'er is better. I will take him to pay your respects to your grandmother and intercede for you. Your grandmother should not refuse. In short, you should be better these few days, copy more, and then take these to your grandmother to see, she will be in a better mood, so naturally she won't blame you."
"Mother, is Brother Qi alright?" Although she didn't have a deep relationship with Shen Ziqi, Shen Jingya still felt a little sad that it was her own younger brother.
"It's getting better gradually, the wound is scarred, and I can go to the ground in the past few days, but I hurt my head after all, I was frightened, and my spirit is not very good, so don't worry." In fact, Shen Ziqi didn't say anything, Shen Ziqi knew it was Shen Jing Ya smashed him, and now he hated Shen Jingya to death, clamoring for revenge every day, Guo Yuanshuang was also very helpless.
The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh, and she feels sorry for anyone who hurts her, especially the son she has been looking forward to for many years. She herself is reluctant to touch a finger, but Shen Jingya smashed a hole. Guo Yuanshuang still feels a little bit Uncomfortable.
"Really? It's good that he's fine." After all, it was the first time he hurt someone. The appearance of Shen Ziqi that day really scared Shen Jingya, so she hid because she was afraid of being punished. Now that Shen Ziqi is fine, she It was also a sigh of relief.
"Okay, just stay in the house and let your grandmother see your sincerity. After a while, her anger will subside. Don't worry, she still loves you!"
"Maybe she loved me in the past, but now, I don't know if she loves me!" When she said this, Shen Jingya's tone was sour. Thinking of the past, she was the only eldest lady in this family, and everyone else would not like her. Hold on to her, grandma treats her well, and good things cling to her. But now
Since Dafang came back, she has been suppressed all the time, where is the former glory
Dafang is also true, hasn't he been doing well in Jiangnan for so many years? Why come back
"Ya'er, you are not allowed to talk nonsense. How could mother not love you? Don't talk nonsense, it will make people laugh!"
"Mother, how can I? Grandma loves her cousin and cousin the most now. Where is our place in her heart?" The children of the two rooms, before the comparison, the second room is naturally excellent, but in comparison, it is also It can't be blamed that Mrs. Shen is biased, the difference is too much.
"Okay, don't say this again. If your grandmother heard it, you should be angry!" Guo Yuanshuang glanced at his daughter reproachfully. Guo Yuanshuang also felt that her daughter was a little ignorant. He knew that her daughter was still young and couldn't calm down. Teaching, "Even if you still have such thoughts in the future, you can only bury them in your heart, you know? It would seem that you are petty and fussy, understand?"
"Then mother, what should I do?"
"After the confinement is lifted, you can also learn from your cousin. Go to relieve your mother's boredom every day, talk to your mother, and give your grandmother some massages. This is your filial piety. My mother feels it and naturally loves you. .”
"But I don't know how!" She doesn't know how to serve people, she is a young lady, how can she do those things
Deep down, Shen Jingya felt that Shen Jingshu had lowered her status by doing this.
"No, you can learn. Look at your cousin. Doesn't your mother do a good job? How can the old mother still be indifferent to her now? It's all because of her good work. You should learn more. It won't do you any harm. !"
"She was scheming deeply, deliberately embarrassing me in front of grandma, and making grandma dislike me even more!" Thinking that she always looked so unbearable under Shen Jingshu's foil before, Shen Jingya gasped in her heart!
"She can do this, but you can't? Don't forget, your mother watched you grow up. How can this kind of affection be compared to her granddaughter who just came back? What's more, she is the daughter of Dafang. Mother She has liked your father since she was a child, as long as you are willing to put in the effort, how can your mother not like you?" This is their advantage, no matter how hard Dafang tries, Mrs. Shen will always be on their side.
"Really? Mother?" Guo Yuanshuang's words made Shen Jingya feel reasonable, but thinking about the recent events, she couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.
"Don't worry, I've already thought of a countermeasure. You should read more books these days and learn some rules. It will be good for you!"
"Mother, I got it!" Guo Yuanshuang explained some things to his daughter, because he was afraid that her daughter's impetuous mood would annoy Mrs. Shen again. Fortunately, although Shen Jingya was a little anxious, she still had some brains after all, so she also listened to Guo Yuanshuang's words, calmed down and copied it carefully, and did not do anything out of the ordinary.
Guo Yuanshuang was also scraping together, and went to the warehouse to find a lot of good things. At this moment, he finally collected three thousand taels and sent them to Mingyue. Guo Yuanshuang finally breathed a sigh of relief. The pain was severe, but I still had to keep smiling, "Mom, the money has already been delivered."
"Really? What did the genius doctor say?"
"The miraculous doctor said thank you mother."
"Hehe, I should be the one to say thank you. My legs have become much more relaxed these days, and I feel more relaxed. A miracle doctor is worthy of being a miracle doctor." Second, it is natural that there is a specialization in the art industry.
"The genius doctor's medical skills are naturally excellent. Seeing that my mother's complexion has improved a lot these days, I am also happy!"
"Hehe, yes, this person is more comfortable and energetic."
"Mother's health will definitely get better and better."
"Let's hope, it's not the same year after year, but it's just holding on."
"Mother, don't say that, mother will live a long life!"
"It's just your sweet mouth. Well, you have worked hard on this matter, so go get busy."
"Yes, mother!" Guo Yuanshuang was also relieved when the matter was settled, but when he thought of the things that were missing in the warehouse, Guo Yuanshuang always felt a little nervous, afraid that something might go wrong.
It seems that I have to be more careful these days, the usury will come back soon, and when I make money, these deficits will be made up, and she can also redeem everything.
Hope, you can cheat the sky!
Although Guo Yuanshuang felt that nothing was wrong, he didn't know what was going on, and he was always a little uneasy. Little did she know that all of her things were just based on Shen Jingshu's calculations.
At this moment, Shen Jingshu was drinking tea in the room, and Chunmei stood there beside her, Shen Jingshu poured a cup of tea, "Did you send the money?"
"Yes, miss."
"She sold a lot of things this time, right?" Hehe, is it true that the Shen family is her second wife? Sell if you want
"Yes, I watched her sneak into the warehouse last night and took a lot of things. Although I don't know what it is, but it must be a lot to sell so much money!"
"These days, she's been rambunctious, and she's sold almost 8,000 taels of stuff, right? I heard that my cousin's jewelry has been sold. It seems that their money is about the same. "I'm afraid there is not much cash left. It seems that this time Guo Yuanshuang really put everything in the usury, but I don't know what the other party's expression will be when the time comes
"Miss, the second lady is doing this, should we tell the old lady? Let the old lady decide?" Most of the Shen family belonged to their second wife. Taking things from the warehouse to sell, and in the past ten years, I don't know how much the other party has been greedy for!
"Don't worry, they have taken so many things over the years, they can't be taken advantage of for nothing!" Even if she gave it to someone else, she wouldn't let the second room take any advantage!
"Then what are you going to do, miss?" Knowing that Shen Jingshu has always had ideas, and these days she kept it hidden, just letting them secretly pay attention to the movement of the second room, it seemed that she had expected something and had a plan in her heart.
"Wait a few more days, there will be news soon!" She hadn't made a move, so she was naturally waiting for the opportunity. This time, I believe it will come soon, when the time comes, she will definitely wipe out Erfang!
"Miss, will the slaves continue to pay attention to the second room these few days?"
"Well, that's natural!" Over the years, Guo Yuanshuang must have kept secrets a lot, but now that he has sold his daughter's jewelry, he may not have much money in his hands. if…
Hehe, she will come back for all of these!
"Miss, don't worry, the servants will take good care of me!" Chunmei completely trusted Shen Jingshu. Now that she has reached the realm of worship, what Shen Jingshu says is naturally what she says, how can Chunmei doubt anything
"Well, it's been hard work."
"It's not hard work, this is what a servant girl should do!"
…
In the next few days, I don't know whether it was Shen Jingshu's reminder, or Mrs. Shen suddenly remembered something. When she saw Guo Yuanshuang came to pay her respects, she immediately smiled, "I'm planning to find you. It's almost Chinese New Year. The things in the house also need to be changed, I remember that the Marquis of Zhongyi sent a blue and white porcelain in previous years, it is not bad, bring it to my house, and add some celebration!"
"Mother, this..." She sold the blue and white porcelain long ago because no one used it. Why did my mother suddenly mention this
"By the way, I remember that there is also a Jade Guanyin statue. That Guanyin statue is very good. It is just right to put it in my room. These days, eating fast and reciting Buddha's name must be enshrined."
"..." How could mother think of those things? Isn't it that no one cares about it for so many years
"There is also a pair of Ruyi, let's take it out as well, it can just be used as a return gift from Prince Duan's Mansion. The gift from Prince Duan's Mansion this time is quite heavy, so we must not lose our courtesy."
"Mother, why did you suddenly think of this?" Didn't Mrs. Shen not take care of things all these years? Why suddenly
Did she discover something
Looking carefully at Mrs. Shen's face, she found that Mrs. Shen looked as usual. Although Guo Yuanshuang was relieved, he was inevitably a little anxious.
"Hehe, my legs have recovered and my energy has improved in the past few days, so I thought of these things. My house rarely changes. Now that I change it, I will feel much better!" Mrs. Shen felt that what Shen Jingshu said was very meaningful. It makes sense, although her house is exquisite and reveals low-key luxury everywhere, it is all old things, and it is good to change it occasionally.
"Really?" The smile on his face couldn't hold back anymore, Guo Yuanshuang looked at Mrs. Shen's smiling face now, and for some reason felt it was particularly glaring.
"Go to the warehouse and take these things out, it's easy to use!"
"Yes, mother, it's just that there are too many things in the warehouse now, and it will take some time to find them. This thing has been in the warehouse for a long time, so I'm afraid it's hard to find it. I hope mother will give me a few days to find it! "Although this excuse is a bit bad, it is also the best excuse Guo Yuanshuang can think of now.
"Is that so?" Looking at Guo Yuanshuang in confusion, everything stored in the warehouse is custom-made, so where is it going to be messed up? Although she felt strange in her heart, Mrs. Shen still didn't take Guo Yuanshuang's face away, "Then you should find him as soon as possible."
"Yes, mother, the daughter-in-law must be as soon as possible!" Bite the bullet and replied, even if Guo Yuanshuang was killed, she dared not say that she had pawned those things. She originally thought that those things were seldom mentioned by people, and she probably wouldn't use them, but unfortunately, it really was...
What can she do
After seeing Mrs. Shen with a forced smile, Guo Yuanshuang immediately had a headache when he returned to his room.
These few are all good things, how can I get them without a few thousand taels? But where did she get the few thousand taels now
What can I do
She didn't dare to take the things in the warehouse anymore, and now she has paid a lot of money from her own private house, and the jewelry was also sold before. Even if we sell some more now, we don't have that much money, so what should we do
Anxiously walking around the room, Guo Yuanshuang was full of calculations, and could only come up with another thousand taels of silver, but that was far from enough, what should I do
With an anxious look on his face, Guo Yuanshuang really had no idea at the moment, but Shen Wenli came back at this time, and when he saw Guo Yuanshuang walking around like this, he was immediately displeased, "What are you doing? Walking around, my eyes are dazzled!"
"Master is back!" Seeing Shen Wenli, Guo Yuanshuang seemed to see hope. Although this husband is unreliable, the other party probably has a solution for the money matter!
