But the woman started to persist and her target was still Shen Qingwan.
baffling.
"You ugly bastard, you saw me fall and didn't even help me up. I'm going to enter the palace, if you treat me like this, be careful or I'll pay you back double and you'll be in big trouble."
"Okay, then let's see who will be the one to suffer the consequences."
After she finished speaking, the waiter had already booked a room for her. She had just helped him a small favor, and now the reward came. She felt very amused.
"Thank you for giving me a hand."
The girl was totally confused by what she said and thought she was provoking her. She was so angry that her nose was crooked.
"Hey, stop right there, do you know who I belong to? How can a poor fellow like you pretend to be virtuous? Kneel down and apologize, and I will forgive your rudeness."
Shen Qingwan's ordinary face could reveal a bit of anger, but she seemed to be used to a stable life outside and didn't like to show her emotions casually, so she didn't say much. She just kept the girl's words firmly in her heart, along with that slightly pretty face.
He went upstairs without looking back.
The waiter breathed a sigh of relief and felt even more sympathetic towards Shen Qingwan.
The Jin family in the capital is not a big and powerful family, but it is effortless for them to deal with small fish and shrimps like them.
The girl thought Qingwan was scared, and was very proud. She again clamored for the waiter to give her a room upstairs. She didn't know why she had to live in this inn when the Jin Mansion was so big.
He took another look at the name she registered and instantly felt contempt.
Her given name is Wan, and her surname is Murong. At first glance, she looks like a poor relative who came from nowhere to beg for money for a living. Maybe she is even a distant relative.
Murong Wan was really furious. She was used to seeing people flattering the powerful and looking down on the weak. Now that she was treated like this again, she felt extremely angry.
She threw the bag to the ground and dropped everything on the counter onto the floor. Her face turned red and her eyes were wide open with anger.
"Who are you? How dare you look down on me? What's wrong with my last name being Murong? Even if your last name is Jin, you have no connection with the Jin family! I came here today to bring some blessings to your humble home, but you don't burn incense and pray to the Buddha to welcome me in, but instead you want me to look at your face. I think you don't want to be a waiter anymore!"
"It's unreasonable."
No matter how good one's temper is, if one is tormented repeatedly, he or she will get annoyed.
The shopkeeper came out in a hurry, intending to scold the waiter a few words to calm the girl down. After all, she had some relationship with the Jin family and was quite pretty. But who would have thought that the girl didn't even take him seriously and her eyes almost rolled up to the sky.
The shopkeeper also stopped feeling sorry for the lady and sneered in his heart.
If no one cares, then nothing will happen.
Only then did Shen Qingwan stand up from the railing. After watching the excitement, she leisurely returned to her room to rest.
"you!"
When Murong Wan turned around and saw her, she was furious.
But the only response she got was a clanking door and a disdainful snort from the waiter.
Suddenly, she felt so aggrieved that all the sufferings from the past came to her mind. She felt that the whole world owed her something, and she wanted to drag everyone out and beat them up to vent her anger.
Unfortunately, no one paid attention.
Shen Qingwan walked into the room, first took a general look at the surrounding scenery, then picked up the bag at hand and sorted it out slowly, without any sign of confusion.
I have to find a way tomorrow. If I remember correctly, the general election will be held in these few days.
She looked up at the swaying lanterns outside. The misty night in the evening was always so comfortable and beautiful that it made people lose their fighting spirit.
She shook her head.
The waiter brought in dinner. Qingwan swallowed the food with some cold tea and lay down on the bed.
I don’t know who is coming from next door, but there is a lot of noise coming out, and I can even hear faint voices talking.
Shen Qingwan was curious and leaned over to listen, but was shocked.
I didn't expect to encounter such an embarrassing thing on my first day out.
The soundproofing of the inn was not very good, so perhaps the scene wasn't that erotic, but Shen Qingwan still broke into a sweat after hearing it.
Next door, I was particularly sensitive to the sounds of a man and a woman making out. I could tell what they were doing with just my toes. It sounded like the girl I met today.
Shen Qingwan: “…”
Well, she thought that person was just a little arrogant, but she didn't expect it to be like this in the end.
No wonder she is so arrogant. With the support of the master of the Jin Mansion, her life as a mistress is going very smoothly.
As a daughter of an official family, Shen Qingwan had also heard of the Jin Mansion, but she was not well-known and had never seen the women in their mansion on weekdays.
I couldn't sleep this late at night, so I had to get up and walk outside the yard.
When she thought it was time to finish inside, she slowly walked upstairs.
When she passed by the door, it was suddenly opened and a face of a stepmother appeared, which scared her.
"Come in, what are you doing out here in the middle of the night?"
Seeing her alert face, Shen Qingwan didn't bother to pay attention. Just as she was about to go back to her room without saying anything, she was grabbed by the wrist.
"Little girl, do you think I don't know you've been eavesdropping just because you don't say anything? Humph, now you know I'm not someone you can easily mess with, right? Have you heard of the eldest young master of the Jin Mansion? He dotes on me a lot. If you don't listen to me again, I'll have him send someone to take care of you!"
"Girl, are you sure you are okay?"
Shen Qingwan said coldly.
The woman was stunned, as if she had not expected that she would dare to refute. Her common sense was challenged for a moment, her face turned blue and red, and she was unable to speak.
After cursing, Shen Qingwan didn't want to get involved in any unnecessary relationship with her. She went into the house and closed the door as if escaping, praying that she would not be assigned to the same room with her tomorrow.
The second day was the day of the general election, when many sons of good families sold themselves into the palace.
Today is a good day to get married but not to hold funerals.
It was obviously a good time, but when Shen Qingwan saw the woman in front of her, she sighed helplessly.
"Why is it you again? You're haunting us."
Murong Wan held the bundle and looked at Shen Qingwan harshly, not showing any sign of weakness.
"I didn't know you were going to the palace for selection. You look so dirty, are you trying to bring bad luck to the palace? In my opinion, people like you should just stay in a corner and don't come out to embarrass yourself."
Shen Qingwan was furious. She had never been treated so rudely before and could not bear it. But now was not the time to get angry. They were also assigned to serve in the imperial kitchen. This fate was so disgusting.
I'm going to meet the housekeeper soon. I can't let the hard-earned money of more than ten taels of silver be wasted. Whether I can stay depends on this moment.
He then lowered his head and closed his eyes, saying no more, not even bothering to give Murong Wan an expression.
