Chapter 24 Begging for Pearls

Chapter 24 Begging for Pearls
The old lady hesitated for a moment: "Just go to the cashier and pay some money to buy some. It won't cost much money." The old lady was still looking at her clothes while talking.

Granny Ma hesitated for a moment: "Madam, miss, I remember that there are two pearls in Madam's dowry, and they are still idle, why not use them on Madam's clothes."

"Well, that's fine, I have some money left." The old lady said indifferently.

"Grandma doesn't know, I've never seen Mother's dowry." Jiang Ziyu said in a very embarrassed way.

She didn't want to talk about it so early, it wasn't to give Yuanshi a chance to relax, but now Yuanshi has tightened his nerves to deal with her, and her feeling in Dad's heart has not changed, if all the backhands It won't do her any good if they're all used up.But after she went to her uncle's house, she couldn't help herself. She needed money, otherwise she couldn't go through any turmoil.

"I guess you were young at that time, and the Yuan family took care of it." The old lady's expression was not very good, and she also knew about it. Just take the pearl in the bag."

"Yes." Xiu'e agreed lightly.

Jiang Ziyu smiled secretly, it seems that the old lady is very clear about the fact that her mother's dowry is not in the hands of the Yuan family. Fortunately, she asked for it for the old lady, otherwise the old lady's complexion would be as bad as it was. Not good looking.

Yuan Shi was stunned for a moment when Xiu'e explained her intention, and was a little flustered at random.

"Madam won't use it, right?" Xiu'e also said worriedly.

Yuan Shi nodded: "You also know that the color of those pearls will not be as good as before after a long time, so I used some."

"What can I do? The old lady asked for it herself." Xiu'e said helplessly.

Yuanshi took a bank note and stuffed it into Xiu'e's hand: "I still need you to figure out a way for me."

"What can I do now? It's not that the old lady is ignorant of what you've done, and she's blocking you. If you dissatisfy her this time, you may be in trouble." Xiu'e It's hard to say.

"I know that too, that's why I asked you to think of a way for me. If you need anything in the future, just tell me." Yuanshi looked at Xiu'e eagerly.

"How about this, see what can replace pearls to make flowers on clothes, and I'll round them up for you to see if you can pass." Xiu'e said helplessly.

"Replace pearls for saving flowers?" The original thought came up: "I have gold thread here, so it's better to use gold thread for saving flowers."

Xiu'e nodded: "Then quickly take it out and I'll take it over, don't make the old lady wait too long."

"Wait a minute, I'll take it out for you right away." Yuan Shi hurried over.

Xiu'e put the banknotes in her purse. In fact, she got a lot of benefits from the Yuan family, and with her little monthly money, she couldn't afford to support her gambler son.

Xiu'e went back with two coils of gold thread. In fact, it was best for her to round it. If she couldn't round it, it was Yuan's business.

Jiang Ziyu was telling the old lady about guessing lantern riddles at the Lantern Festival yesterday, and of course added some drama and humor, the old lady laughed happily when she heard it.

"Old madam." Xiu'e came back with the gold thread to salute, "The madam said that the pearls had been kept for a long time and their luster would not be as good as before, so I asked the servants to bring these gold threads to see if they can be used to make flowers with gold threads." substitute."

Jiang Ziyu secretly smiled inwardly, it seems that the Yuan family is really a match: "The money is really beautiful." Jiang Ziyu took a closer look, "It's just that the flowers are too soft, and they will be deformed if touched a little."

The old lady nodded: "This gold thread is luxurious, but it is a bit inappropriate to make flowers on the clothes." The old lady didn't show it on the face but she was unhappy in her heart. Pearls are a treasure for beauty, and Lian's dowry before Although two buckets of pearls are not top-grade, they are also the same size, so it is best to make flowers.

"Why don't Ziyu think of a way, go to the market to buy some, I can't let grandma wear such a dress." Jiang Ziyu said very embarrassed.

The old lady is actually very satisfied with this dress, but she heard that it could be better and now she feels bad: "Alright, if you need anything, just tell your father."

Jiang Ziyu had lunch at the old lady's place, and the old lady took her lunch break before leaving, and Xiu'e sent them out politely.

"Aunt Xiu'e, I'm going to change grandma's clothes. I'm not very clear about grandma's preferences. I want to invite you to Wenxiu Pavilion. Let's talk about it." Jiang Ziyu saw that Xiu'e was about to leave, so she stayed she.

"The old lady can't do without me." Xiu'e was somewhat jealous of Jiang Ziyu.

"It won't take you much time. Grandma will definitely let you come back before she wakes up." Jiang Ziyu looked at Xiu'e's expression. "I am grandma's granddaughter, so I naturally want to give grandma the best. I don't know how to do it."

The point of Jiang Ziyu's words was not how filial she was to her grandma, but to remind Xiu'e that she was the legitimate master of this family, and now she was gradually moving towards her proper position.

Xiu'e hesitated for a moment: "Alright."

Although she is still on the side of the Yuan family, because she has received a lot of benefits from the Yuan family, the performance of the eldest lady during this period made her feel that the wind direction of the Jiang family is about to change, and she must be optimistic about being a servant. The direction of the wind, otherwise, I don’t know how to die in the end.

When she arrived at Wenxiu Pavilion, Jiang Ziyu asked Binglu to take out the clothes she had made before. When she saw Xiu'e secretly mending her own clothes, she knew that Xiu'e was a very frugal person, and she couldn't do it in front of the old lady. They are poorly dressed.

"The two sets of clothes are exactly the same, Aunt Xiu'e can wear them differently." Jiang Ziyu pushed the clothes in front of Xiu'e.

Xiu'e froze for a moment: "This is impossible."

"There's nothing wrong with it. My grandma is getting old. Aunt Xiu'e's two sets of clothes are nothing to take care of her." Jiang Ziyu said with a smile.

"I should take care of the old lady. The old lady has never treated Xiu'e badly. How could Xiu'e think anything wrong?"

"Aunt Xiu'e is serious. It's just two sets of clothes. Aunt Xiu'e is doing me a favor." Jiang Ziyu said indifferently, "Everyone has their own principles in doing things. Aunt Xiu'e only needs to serve grandma. That's all right."

"Your maidservant must do her best." Xiu'e felt a little panicked.

After coming out of Wenxiu Pavilion, Xiu'e was a little apprehensive. The eldest lady said that she was the eldest lady of this family, and that the Yuan family was just a girl in high position. Strictly speaking, she could not even enter the Jiang family's genealogy.In addition, the Yuan family lived in peace in the past few years, and the benefits to her were less. He just gave him a red envelope every year and festival, otherwise she wouldn't even have to mend a piece of clothing.

Xiu'e's life was not very good either. She was also married before. She was married to a servant of Jiang's family and went out to run goods with Master Jiang. Once she met a bandit and never came back. They are mother and son. Her son also worked in the Jiang family before, but she was a bit arrogant in the Jiang family. In order to keep Xiu'e by the old lady's side, and to reduce some troubles, Yuan Shi gave her son a prostitute. Qi, also bought her a house outside, although it is not big, it is enough for a servant.

It's just that after Xiu'e's son went out, he met some messy people, and later became addicted to gambling. Now the house has been sold and he has been displaced. Xiu'e also thought that if her son was still safe in Jiang's house, she would not be where she is today. , Thinking about Yuanshi's benevolence and righteousness, it was her son who did not live up to it. This incident made Xiu'e always conflicted.

Now that she is holding the clothes, her heart is even more flustered. It seems that only two clothes are not enough for her to betray the Yuan family, but what the eldest lady said is right, she is the real eldest lady of the Jiang family...

"Miss wants to make Xiu'e her own?" Granny Ma finally understood Jiang Ziyu's intention.

"Two sets of clothes are far from enough." Jiang Ziyu looked at the clothes in front of her.

She relied on these two sets of clothes to make the old lady dissatisfied with Yuanshi for the first time, but this was just the beginning. She wanted to let the old lady's dissatisfaction with Yuanshi accumulate to a certain level. At that time, she didn't have to think of a way. The old lady will do it herself.

After this incident, Jiang Ziyu realized another problem—what was her mother's situation in Jiang's family?
In her memory, that period of time is very vague, because it didn't mean anything to her, so she didn't pursue it much, but judging by the old lady's attitude today, her mother lived with such a mother-in-law before, there must be some problems that others don't know .

When Jiang Yujuan woke up in the afternoon, her eyes were so swollen that she couldn't open her eyes, and her slightly fat face was really unbearable.

"Miss, let's have some porridge first, Madam has been keeping it warm." Huanzhu said cautiously, she has been with her for so long and has never seen her become like this, she usually cries to achieve her own goals , never tossing herself so embarrassingly.

Jiang Yujuan took the bowl and threw it on the ground: "Clean it up for me, I'm going to Helian's house to clean up that bitch."

Huanzhu and Bihe knelt on the ground in fright. The lady told her not to let the lady go out, and they dared not listen, but they couldn't stop the lady from doing what she wanted to do.

I used to think it was great to follow the lady. The lady has a bad temper but likes to be flattered. As long as they are flattering, nothing will happen. Moreover, the lady is one-sided in the Jiang family. Those who are servants will not give them some face, but Since the eldest lady came out of Zixin Garden after the fire, they had a hard time, and they couldn't help resenting the eldest lady in their hearts.

Some people have a very peculiar ability to attribute their sorrows to completely unrelated things, and then say right and wrong with confidence.

"Miss, madam said you can't leave this room." Bihe said softly.
