Chapter 505 You Dare Not
Chapter 505 You Dare Not (One Chapter Each)
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar in the main hall.
Qian's face turned pale. "What did you say? What Young Master Jin? When did you meet this Young Master Jin? When did it happen? You..." What did you do with this Young Master Jin?
Qian couldn't say the last sentence.
Lu also widened her eyes and looked at Xiu Miao, thinking: Could it be that Xiu Miao...
The sparkle in Liu's eyes could not be hidden. Oh, they say that the silent dog bites the most. Xiu Miao, who is usually well-behaved, obedient and diligent, would actually do such a thing! The eldest sister-in-law kept praising her daughter for everything!
What a shameless thing, he seduces people and still has the nerve to talk about others!
Liu felt that she had found a way to improve Shi Liu's favor and make up for what happened just now, and she screamed, "Xiumiao, what are you saying? Are you having an affair with this Mr. Jin? How dare you have an affair without a matchmaker? It's really a disgrace to my Lu family! How could you do that!"
Xiu Miao blushed at what she said, but still held her chin high, looking like she had someone to rely on.
Hong Jiabao jumped out and said proudly, "Do you know the Jin Family Embroidery Shop in Luoshui City? That Mr. Jin, my uncle, works in the government office and manages more than a dozen people in the family!"
Young Master Jin likes Xiu Miao very much. Not only did he pay for Xiu Miao to open a straw weaving shop in Luoshui City, he also promised Xiu Miao to open one in the city in the future!"
Shocked and ashamed that her granddaughter would do such a shameless thing that would ruin the family tradition, Mrs. Wang felt warm in her heart when she heard what Hong Jiabao said. She didn't know about the Jin Family Embroidery Shop, but her uncle was an official in the government office? An official?!
Damn!
She looked at Xiu Miao and asked anxiously, "Really? Does Young Master Jin really like you so much?"
Seeing her grandmother's expression change immediately, Xiu Miao was also proud, she smiled and nodded, "Of course! Young Master Jin is very good to me, and he even bought me a house in the city. I will take you to see it later."
Bai Cui was angry that Xiu Miao had dared to say that about her daughter. Upon hearing that, she couldn't help but look at Xiu Miao and added, "You say what kind of person you are, and that's how others are. So it's you who wants to be someone else's mistress and seduce others to make money for you!"
Xiu Miao was immediately furious and glared at Shi Liu: "Is this how you discipline your servants? How can a lowly servant have the right to speak here?"
Shi Liu, who had been watching the show calmly and calmly throughout the chaos, frowned: "Lowly? Since ancient times, marriages have been decided by parents and matchmakers. Isn't it lowly to rush to become someone's concubine without a matchmaker?
Besides, I think what Patsy said makes sense, and what she wants to say is exactly what I want to say."
Shi Liu wasn't really angry about Xiu Miao's words that she was able to seduce Liu Dongjia only by relying on Liu Dongjia.
First, irrelevant people are not worth it.
Secondly, this kind of thing where people think someone’s background is not legitimate just because of their ability is not new, there are many such things in later generations.
At that time, she came home for the New Year after work, carrying a lot of bags and wearing a down jacket. The gossiping women in the village often murmured about her behind her back. They didn't believe that she had passed the college entrance examination, found a good job and earned her own money. They said that she had hooked up with a rich man and became his mistress, so she had money to spend.
Not surprising.
Some people just can't stand others being better than them, and can make something out of nothing.
If she was really angry about this, she would have died of anger long ago.
And people like this will not believe you even if you explain to them that you don't have it. They only believe their own words that say the dead should not be punished.
Therefore, Shi Liu didn't take Xiu Miao's words to heart at all.
But it would be fine if Xiu Miao was jealous and couldn't stand her, but she herself did the things she said, and yet she thought that others were the same. It was really disgusting.
Besides, jealous? Dislike? That's not a reason for you to steal things!
Her pictures don’t look that easy to grasp!
"However, since you have no matchmaker or betrothal, whether you are the young master Jin or the young master Wang on the list, I have no right to interfere. But since you stole my drawings, I cannot let this matter go."
Shi Liu said in a deep voice: "Zuo Cheng, go report to the authorities."
"Report to the authorities?" Mrs. Wang was just happy that her granddaughter was liked by a nobleman in the city, who even bought her a house and opened a shop. Her family was going to be lucky. But when she heard Shi Liu's words, she was immediately shocked. "Why do we have to report to the authorities? It's not necessary, is it?"
I just took a bunch of pictures, not gold, silver or other valuables.
Shi Liu did not answer, but only talked about himself: "According to the laws of the Jin Dynasty, those who steal property worth one string or less will be flogged 300 times, those who steal property worth five strings will be flogged 50 times, those who steal property worth twenty strings will be tattooed and forced to work for three years, and those who steal property worth twenty strings or more will be flogged 50 times.
These drawings of mine may seem like just a few pieces of paper, so they are not worth much. However, these drawings are equivalent to secret recipes, and the money they can create is indispensable. Secret recipes are also property. Even if they are only worth 20 strings of cash, I will still have to be tattooed and sentenced to three years of forced labor.
Wang Po's legs went limp when she heard this. Tattoo? Three years of forced labor? How could this be possible!
If Xiu Miao was sent to do hard labor, the Jin family couldn't wait for Xiu Miao for three years. Even if they waited, would they still be able to keep Xiu Miao?
This can't happen!
She hurriedly looked at her daughter, wanting her to help plead for mercy.
But Lu had heard from Shi Liu before, and she knew that Shi Liu would not ignore the matter just because Xiu Miao was her niece. Moreover, Xiu Miao did not know she was wrong and insulted Shi Liu's reputation. How could she intercede for her? She could still distinguish between good and bad.
When Xiu Miao heard that Shi Liu was going to report to the police and was using all these laws to scare her, she didn't know whether stealing property would really be sentenced like this. But she only stole a few pieces of paper, and the papers were found again, so it couldn't be considered as stealing at all. The county magistrate was not a corrupt official, so why would he sentence her so arbitrarily?
Besides, she belongs to Young Master Jin, and he won’t ignore her.
At that moment, Xiu Miao raised her chin and smiled at Shi Liu, saying, "Just go and report to the police!"
"Xiumiao!" Mrs. Wang hurriedly pulled her, now in a completely protective attitude. She pulled her to kneel down and apologize to Shi Liu, begging Shi Liu not to report to the police.
Xiu Miao stiffened her neck and refused. Seeing that Wang Pozi had actually knelt down before Shi Liu, she was so angry that she said hurriedly, "Grandma, please get up. There is no need to beg her. Just ask her to report to the police. Young Master Jin will save me! The Jin family will also protect me!"
Wang Po looked at her granddaughter, "Why?" "Why?" She knew the faces of those rich people. If they knew that Xiu Miao stole things, how could they let Xiu Miao in?
Xiu Miao touched her belly proudly, "I'm pregnant with the Jin family's little grandson! Grandma Jin has not laid an egg in five years since she came into the family, and none of Young Master Jin's concubines have given birth to children. The old lady and Madam Jin have been looking forward to a great-grandson and a grandson for a long time! This is a precious baby! They will not ignore me! Young Master Jin has said that he will come to our house on an auspicious day to make the betrothal, and will bring me in as a concubine. When I give birth to a child, he will make me his equal wife!"
It was only two days after she found out she was pregnant that she sent a letter to Master Jin to tell him. Otherwise, she would have been worshipped by the Jin family. How could Shi Liu have the right to show off to her and report to the authorities? Master Jin's uncle was an official in the government office. How dare the county magistrate not give face to the Jin family? !
The reason why she thought of stealing the blueprint was that the opportunity came to her by chance. She also saw the rag doll that Zhuo Ge'er and Taohua played with and touched it. It was soft inside and difficult to take it apart. She didn't know what it was, but it felt like a cotton-padded jacket. Anyway, if she sent the blueprint to Young Master Jin, the embroiderer at the Jin family embroidery shop would definitely be able to make it.
She knew that Shi Liu was going to open a new workshop, so she thought of stealing the design and giving it to Young Master Jin, so that she could sell the doll before Shi Liu and see how Shi Liu could make money!
And she has given the Jin family such a big gift of making money before she even enters the house. Once she enters the house, the old lady and Mrs. Jin will look up to her. When her son is born, it will not be difficult to get rid of the hen that does not lay eggs! By then, she will be the real grandmother of the Jin family! She doesn't want to be on an equal footing with others!
When Mrs. Wang heard this, she was surprised and delighted. She was surprised to learn that Mr. Jin had already married a wife? He just wanted to take Xiu Miao as a concubine, not to marry her!
But what immediately made him happy was that the grandmother of the Jin family had not given birth to a child for five years after she entered the family, and yet Xiu Miao got pregnant. So she was a concubine when she entered the family, and after she gave birth to a child, she was promoted to a co-wife. Then she would be the real grandmother of the Jin family, all great!
She knew how important a son was. The son that the Jin family had been waiting for was in Xiu Miao's belly. Xiu Miao was a gold nugget, after all!
Mrs. Wang also became cautious and quickly stood up, helped Xiu Miao to sit on the stool where she was sitting, and asked her how her stomach was and whether she had been hurt by Qian just now.
Seeing that, Mrs. Lu's eyebrows were twisted into a knot. She felt very helpless about her mother's behavior.
Qian was also stunned. On the one hand, she was angry that her daughter had an affair with someone without a matchmaker and got pregnant, which was so shameful. On the other hand, she was glad that the young master of the Jin family was responsible and would bring Xiu Miao into the family. Although she was only a concubine, she would be a co-wife after giving birth to a child, which would also be beautiful. As a mother, how could she not hope for the best for her child? She couldn't just watch her daughter get pregnant and drowned in spit, could she?
At this moment, he couldn't help but feel worried, fearing that he had hurt his daughter. If the child was gone, the Jin family might not be responsible - who would his daughter be able to marry then? Her life would be ruined!
Seeing that her grandmother had praised her after hearing her words, and her mother had calmed down and looked at her with concern, Xiu Miao was very proud. She raised her eyebrows at Shi Liu, who was standing opposite her, as if to say: Why don't you report to the police? Go and report it now!
Fan's frown was so tight that it could kill ten flies. Pah, what kind of person is this! How could there be such a little girl! Fortunately, my sister-in-law didn't decide her to be Rongquan's wife, otherwise, she would really not be able to bear such a nephew's wife!
I couldn't help but look at Shi Liu: What should I do? This girl is from a good family, and has the support of an official. So, should I just let this matter of stealing the pictures go? That's too infuriating! She won't be able to sleep well tonight!
Shi Liu met Xiu Miao's provocative gaze and smiled gently, "Don't worry, I've already gone there. If I'm quick, I'll be here before dark."
The Jin family is on the list? So what? Do they not need to be punished for doing something wrong? Is it illegal to kill someone?
Although this is indeed the way things are, why should Lu Xiumiao do this? The umbrella of the Jin family is not big enough!
What Xiu Miao said was not wrong. She relied on the Liu family, and the Liu family was her umbrella.
Seeing that she could still smile and didn't seem to be afraid at all, Xiu Miao also snorted coldly. What's the problem with the Liu family behind her? Can the Liu family go against the officials for her? The Liu family is rich but they are just merchants. In front of the officials, merchants are nothing.
Xiu Miao had no idea who was behind the Liu family.
At that moment, he just snorted at Shi Liu and said, "I'm waiting."
After saying that, she looked at Mrs. Wang and said, "Grandma, your great-grandson Xiao Jin is hungry." This was to drive the guests away. Didn't he not stay for dinner? Why don't you leave quickly?
Granny Wang was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted and said, "Grandma will kill a chicken and make soup for you! Second brother, go kill a chicken!"
Today, the chicken of the Lu family was about to be killed again and again, and in the end it could not escape death.
Liu, on the other hand, pouted with displeasure. She would be happy to kill a chicken for Shi Liu to eat, and of course she could run fast, but why should she kill a chicken to serve Xiu Miao?
She is a rich young master on the list and is going to be a young lady, so what? Is having a piece of meat in her belly precious? It seems like everyone has had this experience!
She won't serve!
Liu pretended that it was not her who was being called and just stood beside Shi Liu without moving.
Liu refused to go, so Mrs. Wang glared at her and had no choice but to ask her eldest granddaughter-in-law to go.
Qian didn't dare let her daughter-in-law go because she was pregnant, so she went herself.
Shi Liu also stood up and said to Fan: "Let's go back first. It won't be too late to come back after the county government has arrived."
Seeing that Shi Liu seemed to be successful, Fan was no longer anxious. She nodded and looked at Lu again.
Naturally, Lu wanted to go with them. Although it was her mother's family, she was already the daughter-in-law of the Li family. Besides, she didn't want to stay and see her mother looking so worthless.
Do you really think it's that easy to get into a wealthy family in the city? Why would they marry a country girl like you and even raise you as their equal wife?
Xiu Miao held her waist and said to Shi Liu with a smile: "You're leaving now? You're not staying for lunch?"
From that perspective, if you didn’t know her, you would think she had a very good relationship with Shi Liu.
Shi Liu glanced at her belly, smiled, and walked out without saying anything.
After walking a few steps, she remembered something, stopped, turned around, and looked at Xiu Miao, "By the way, what did you put in the brown sugar water just now?"
Mrs. Wang and the others were stunned. What else can be put in the brown sugar water?
Xiu Miao was stunned for a moment, then her expression froze slightly, and she smiled and said, "What? What can I put?"
Shi Liu said with a slightly regretful tone: "If we don't tell others about what we have done, wouldn't it be like walking in the night in brocade clothes? That would be too boring."
Xiu Miao didn't understand what "walking at night in gorgeous clothes" meant, but after listening to the first and second sentences, she figured it out.
He then puffed out his stomach, as if to say, "I have a backer, I'm not afraid." "Are you afraid that I will poison you? You are too timid. I just spit in it to disgust you. Who asked you to bring so many people to my house? It's a pity that you didn't even want to drink it."
"How do you know I added something in it?" Xiu Miao was puzzled.
On this side, Mrs. Fan's face turned pale. That brown sugar water...she drank it. There shouldn't be any in her bowl, right?
Shi Liu felt nauseated, luckily she didn't drink it.
It’s over. What should I do if I don’t dare to eat or drink outside from now on?
This reminded her of something her roommate had said in her previous life. She said that once she went to a restaurant with her family, and one of the dishes was a little bland. They didn't want to make trouble and asked the boss to redo it, so they just asked the boss to take it back to the kitchen and repot it. But when her roommate went to the bathroom and passed by the kitchen, she actually saw the chef spitting into the pot. She was so disgusted that she hurried out, took her family to pay the bill and left. She never dared to eat at that restaurant again.
This kind of thing is really not uncommon. Many chefs also work for restaurants. If you tell them that their dishes are not well done and ask them to reheat or redo something, this is just adding to their workload. Some chefs with bad tempers will really add "ingredients" to your dishes.
She also couldn't understand why there were such disgusting people.
If you have the guts, just poison me. Poison is better than this saliva, at least it won’t be disgusting!
Shi Liu felt a chill in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. "No matter how strong the wind blows, I will remain unmoved." She even smiled and said, "I see."
After saying that, he turned around and left in a graceful manner.
This made Xiu Miao so angry that her teeth itched. Bah, why are you pretending!
Don't let me get the chance, otherwise, next time I will make you eat the food with added things and make you sick to death!
