Ci Jinzhi Chapter 34

  Chapter 34 Asking price

  Duan Yunhua wanted to clap his hands and applaud, but Duan Yunling looked at Xinyou with unconcealable worry in his eyes.

  She already knew that a fight would not be good for Cousin Qing, especially if it made her grandmother unhappy, and as a grandchild, she would have no power to resist.

  Seeing that the old lady was angry, Mrs. Zhu sighed in her heart, and persuaded: "Old lady, Qingqing is also impulsive, so don't be angry."

The old lady has always been more loving to her granddaughter than to her granddaughter in front of people, but at this moment her face is cold: "I have reached the age of marriage, impulsiveness is not a thing, I used to indulge her too much, now it seems this is killed her."

  Everyone understood that the old lady was really annoyed by what Miss Biao did today, and she would not be so comfortable in the future.

  All kinds of eyes fell on Xin You, some were worried, some were sympathetic, some were gloating.

  Xin You calmly said, "Grandma, I have something to say to you alone."

  The old lady met those calm eyes, and nodded after a while.

   "Let's talk." Back in the back room of Ruyi Hall, with no one else around, the old lady said calmly.

  She was also curious about what her granddaughter would say.

   No one else is around, put down your face and beg her coquettishly?

   "I went to a bookstore today and met the martyr who rescued me that day."

  As soon as Xinyou opened her mouth, the old lady's whole mind was aroused.

  The old lady stared closely at the girl with a straight back, and heard the last thing she wanted to hear.

"Qingqing just found out that the martyr who saved me was actually the envoy of Jinlinwei Township." Xin You smiled sweetly, ignoring the old lady's discolored face. Said, if there is trouble in the future, go to him."

  The old lady's pupils trembled, and her voice changed: "He really said that?"

  Xin You showed puzzlement: "Qingqing doesn't need to tell such a lie. If grandma doesn't believe it, you can ask Mr. He."

  The old lady's complexion kept changing, and she didn't say anything for a long time.

  It is definitely impossible to ask, but with Chang Lehou's status, why would he say such things to his granddaughter?

  The old lady's eyes were heavy, and she fell on the girl with a body like a willow and a face like a lotus flower. A guess could not help but emerge: Changle Hou He Qingxiao fell in love with his granddaughter?

  This guess made her look even uglier.

  The Shaoqing Mansion must not have anything to do with such a person!

   "Qingqing, you mentioned this person because you feel that you have been wronged today, do you want to ask him for help?"

  Xin You showed a disapproving expression.

   "Absurd! You are a boudoir girl, and you leave your family and ask an unmarried man for help. Do you still want to be famous? Do you know what the world will say about you?"

   Facing the stern old lady, Xin You laughed, "But Qingqing's troubles are all thanks to her relatives?"

   These words were like a slap in the face, and they slapped the old lady heavily on the face.

   "Qingqing, Mrs. Qiao has been dismissed and returned to Qiao's house. Could it be that you are still not satisfied and must drive your second cousin to your grandfather's house?"

The old lady's anger made Xinyou feel sad for Kou Qingqing, and she said calmly, "Mrs. Qiao was dismissed and returned to Qiao's house, and the second cousin started to trouble me. If the second cousin is punished, maybe the eldest cousin will You want to trouble me. If my eldest cousin is blamed again, my uncle may not tolerate me. Grandmother, Qingqing lives in Shaoqing's mansion, and she will cause endless troubles in the future. Is this what you want to see?"

  The old lady's face turned black when she was asked, and she said coldly: "You didn't have any contact with them in Wanqingju, so why bother?"

  Xin You raised his eyebrows: "Grandmother wants me to live in the ancient Buddha with a green light in the evening like the way Mrs. Qiao was arranged at the beginning?"

  The old lady's complexion was gloomy, and she didn't speak.

  She didn't intend to let her granddaughter green light the ancient Buddha, but she saw that the girl was too noisy, and wanted to stay in Wanqingju for a period of time, and when she knew that the days of being grounded were uncomfortable and sensible, she would go back to the past.

   But she didn't want to, this girl thought the situation was worse. That being the case, where is the confidence to make a fuss?

Xin You's tone softened: "Many people saw Qingqing running out of the mansion just now, and I'm afraid there are still speculations and discussions around Shaoqing's mansion. It is difficult to build a reputation, but it is easy to destroy it. Since my grandmother cherishes the reputation of Shaoqing's mansion so much , why force me to stay here? Do you want to imprison me for the rest of my life? "

   "Are you threatening grandma?"

  This girl is right, unless she is locked up all the time, as long as there is a chance to meet people, a willing person can do whatever he wants to ruin the reputation of the Shaoqing Mansion.

"Why? Qingqing is just telling the truth. I hate my second cousin very much now. When I see her again, I might not be able to resist tearing her clothes and throwing her out of the house. Grandma doesn't want our cousins ​​to make trouble like this, right? ?”

Xin You said lightly, ignoring the old lady's extremely ugly face: "Grandmother, Qingqing is sixteen years old, if you have no plans to imprison me for the rest of your life, and if you feel sorry for Qingqing because she fell off a cliff and was startled by a horse, then please allow me. "

   These words sound soft, but they are actually hidden in the cotton.

   This means that if you can't keep people locked up all the time, and you can't kill people as cruelly as Joe, it's better to compromise.

  Killed the granddaughter?

  Although the old lady was reluctant to part with the huge sum of money brought by her granddaughter, she never thought about it. To her, Kou Qingqing is the only flesh and blood left behind by her daughter, her granddaughter.

   What the old lady always thinks about is to gain both people and wealth, and to be harmonious and beautiful.

   Now it seems that Hehemeimei is impossible.

   "Qingqing, you only think that making troubles will affect the reputation of Shaoqing Mansion. Have you ever thought that if you are allowed to go out of the mansion to do so, it will also be a slap in the face of Shaoqing Mansion?"

  An orphan girl who took refuge in her grandfather's family suddenly left the house and set up a new family. What does the world think?

   "Is that so—" Xin You blinked, as if she just thought of this question.

   She frowned and thought about it, and suddenly her eyes lit up: "Going out of the house doesn't necessarily mean setting up a new family."

  The old lady frowned and looked at her.

"Today, Qingqing went out and visited Qingsong Bookstore. I just heard that the bookstore is in poor condition and the owner intends to sell it. Grandmother can buy Qingsong Bookstore for me. When the time comes, I will live in the bookstore in the name of managing the bookstore, so I won't be with you. The second cousin got into a conflict."

  As soon as Xin You said this, the old lady's first reaction was no.

  Even an old woman like her has heard about Qingsong Bookstore, and it costs a lot of money to buy it. Besides, although there are women who show their faces to ask for a living nowadays, there is nothing they can do about it, there is no such thing as a lady like everyone.

Xin You didn't seem to see the old lady's refusal, so she took it for granted: "You don't need to spend money, just pay Qingqing's dowry in advance. Grandmother doesn't have to worry about outsiders' comments, it's because I can't stand it because of my temper, so I insist on going out to open a shop. You and uncle love me too much... Ah, grandma, is the money my parents left me enough to buy Qingsong Bookstore?"

  The old lady's slightly changed expression made Xin You's eyes sparkle.

  The decision to leave before was just a wild asking price, and it was impossible for the old lady to agree.

  Getting out of Shaoqing's mansion and taking down Qingsong Bookstore by the way is her real purpose of making trouble today.
