Seeking Happiness

Chapter 122: foolish and naive

Views:

Zhang Hanfang lived a life of rich clothes and fine food, and she had a good eye, but the goods sold in ordinary jewelry shops outside could not catch her eyes at all. Most of the jewelry she used came from the family with gold and jade, and hired a famous jewelry craftsman When calling at the door, she only cares about materials and workmanship, knowing that this is expensive and that is not, but she doesn't know exactly what the price is.

So when Mama Ding said this, she became irritable: "It's only worth one thousand taels of silver? How is it possible? You can do the math again."

Ding's mother curled her lips slightly and said: "The old woman has calculated it three times, and it is indeed worth one thousand taels of silver. If the girl doesn't believe it, please take a look at it, a nanny, or call a jeweler Come right to the door."

Isn't it enough to lose face at the Gu family? Zhang Hanfang ignored her, but turned her suspicious eyes to Guan's mother.

Guan's mother's face was extremely ugly, and she muttered reluctantly: "Although the estimated price is a bit lower, it's still close..."

Zhang Hanfang froze for a while, then took a deep breath and said, "Didn't my wife give three hundred taels of silver when I went out? Take it out."

Mama Guan wiped her sweat and said, "Girl, you spent a lot of rewarding flowers, and now there are only two hundred taels left..."

"Take it out" Zhang Hanfang shouted at her.

Guan's mother had no choice but to take out the two hundred taels of silver, and Meimei stepped forward to take it for Shu Huan.

Even so, there is still a shortfall of three hundred taels of silver that has not been made up. Zhang Hanfang was so embarrassed that she couldn't let go of her grievance. He had no choice but to muffle and ruthlessly remove all the jewelry from his head, body, hands, and even ears, and throw them into Guan's mother's hands.

"One hundred and twenty taels of silver." Mama Ding dutifully reported the price.

After all, the fire started in the middle of the night, Zhang Hanfang had already taken off her jewelry and went to sleep, and even after she got up, she didn't make up her makeup, and the jewelry she wore was simple and limited.

Shu Huan saw that she couldn't make it any more, shook his head slightly, and had no choice but to say: "Let's forget about the rest of the money."

It's not that the heart is soft, but that the face has been slapped too hard. Although it is Zhang Hanfang's fault, she is responsible for paying for it when she burns Fufuzhai. Huan, it's really a bit of a bully. After all, she is the granddaughter of the old matriarch. If you teach her to go out clean than being robbed by robbers, it will not only hit her face, but also Zhang's family. face, it is easy to make things worse.

Gu Xiran naturally understood Shu Huan's intentions, looked at her appreciatively, and felt that she was more thoughtful than when she first came here, so she slowly said: "That's it, it's almost dawn, my cousin is still Let’s take a rest first, I’ll have the car ready, and when you’ve had enough rest, you can leave anytime.”

Zhang Hanfang has been trying not to let herself cry, but now when she heard his words, her nose was sour, and the tears couldn't stop falling, but since she has a spoiled temper, she is naturally stubborn, and she is determined to make up for the money. So she ignored them, just turned her head and said to her nanny and maidservants: "Take off all the jewelry and silver on your body, take it out for me, and when you get home, I will pay you back."

All the girls in the family took off all their jewelry. The maids didn't want to, and they didn't dare to make a sound. They all lowered their heads and silently took out the jewelry and silver they were wearing.

Zhang Hanfang is used to taking things slowly, and if she is happy to meet her, she can hold the whole ingot of fine silk silver as a reward, so a few maids and nanny get together, and they can even scrape together something worth two hundred taels of silver .

This was enough, Zhang Hanfang naturally couldn't wait for Shu Huan to find her back the twenty taels of silver, and regardless of whether it would be broken, he threw the thing on the ground and ran away in tears.

"Girl—" Mama Guan chased after her all the way.

The rest of the maids looked at each other, looking at each other. Only Mama Ding bent down to pick up the things on the ground, muttering something.

It is still pardonable for the evil done by the sky, but it is impossible to live for the evil done by oneself.

Shu Huan felt sorry for Zhang Hanfang at the moment, but in the end it was her own fault, and she deserved to be cruel, so she just sighed secretly, took the jewelry and money, and said to the maids: "What are you doing in a daze, chase back to your house Girl, let her go to take a bath and change clothes first, I will teach someone to clean up the house later, you guys rest for a while before talking."

The maids agreed and all chased after her. Gu Xiran lowered his head and thought for a while and said, "Meimei, follow along and have a look."

Meimei responded, handed the lantern in her hand to Xianxin, and chased after her.

The surroundings became quiet all of a sudden, only the shouts and shouts from the servants who were still fighting the fire could be heard in the distance, and seeing the fire gradually slowing down, Shu Huan felt tired and couldn't hold on, and didn't want to go to see it any more. How did Fu Fuzhai burn, he just raised his face and said to Gu Xiran: "I'm so tired, let's go back."

Gu Xiran nodded, and smiled at Ding's mother: "You can go and rest, tomorrow I will come to Ting Hexie to receive the reward."

Ding's mother stayed with her, she just waited for this sentence, and the old face burst into a smile and answered.

When they returned to Ting Hexie, Shu Huan put the box of jewelry on the dressing table, and then he was paralyzed until he was too tired to move. Gu Xiran lay down after him, and the two looked at each other's slightly dark eye circles, both feeling funny .

Shu Huan said first, "What about those jewelry?"

Gu Xiran smiled: "Let's keep it for now. If the Taijun asks, then hand it over. If he doesn't ask, it will take advantage of us."

Shu Huan nodded, closed his eyes, and said nothing.

The old lady probably wouldn't ask about it, unless Zhang Hanfang went back and cried, but with her temperament, how could she say such a shameful thing, even if asked by her family, she would just lie and lie to her.

Thinking of this, Shu Huan suddenly felt that this tsundere girl was not so annoying anymore. After all, the compensation that she could rely on was obediently handed over after being squeezed out. This kind of stupid and naive person is really hard to find in the world. up. But after getting her money, I don't feel any guilt or uneasiness. First, they didn't set the fire, and they didn't intend to ask for money at first. Second, the old lady will not ask Zhang Hanfang to lose money, but she is so arrogant and domineering. It's really a pity for the conscience of heaven and earth not to let her learn a lesson about these things that cause trouble for others.

Thinking wildly, Shu Huan was about to fall asleep in a daze, and in a daze, she felt that a hand was untying her clothes. She was so tired that she really didn't want to move anymore, so she just turned over and said vaguely: "Don't..."

How could Gu Xiran be so impatient, she just wanted to untie her clothes and let her sleep well because she saw that she was sleeping with her clothes on, but after she said this, she became a little bit ruddy, but she didn't have time Taking the opportunity to eat some tofu, Meijing knocked on the door and said, "Second Master, Second Mistress, have you rested yet?"

It seems that today is really not an auspicious day

Gu Xiran sighed helplessly, put the quilt on Shu Huan, got up and opened the door: "What's the matter?"

Jingmei said embarrassedly: "I remember that the second master has medicinal wine for sprains here, and I want to take it to Miss Zhang."

Yes, last time after Shu Huan sprained her foot, Ji Danqing gave it to her. Gu Xiran turned around and found it, handed it to her, and then asked: "Why, did she sprain?"

"Yes... yes..." Meimei was a little embarrassed, afraid that he would ask more questions, so she just said: "Second Master, please rest, I will go first."

Naturally, Gu Xiran was not in the mood to ask, and closed the door with an "um".

Only then did Meijing let out a long breath, thinking she was lucky.

Wasn't it a night of smoky fuss? After Zhang Hanfang got angry, she found that she was covered in a bad smell. She went straight to the hot spring pool to take a bath. If you put it in the gap between the stones paving the pool, you will of course sprain your feet, and the reason why the stones paving the pool are so loose is related to the beautiful scenery.

Usually, when Shu Huan wanted to paint stones, he used to pick up white stones from the hot spring pool by Meimei. After picking them up, after a long time, he picked out a gap in the tightly paved stones...

Fortunately, Zhang Hanfang didn't have the physical strength or thought to investigate the cause of her sprain after suffering such a blow. Naturally, Gu Xiran and Shu Huan didn't ask, so they did, and they wouldn't punish her to vent their anger on Zhang Hanfang's behalf. Just to teach her to escape.
