Chapter 321 Tang Rong wants to lose money again
Nowadays, Xin'an has long lost the old-fashioned attitude in his heart, and has successfully moved his mentality to the age of eighteen. He can make jokes easily, and a few words can bring the laughter in the room to a higher level.
After lunch, the three 'sons' smiled and wanted to follow her back to Qiushiyuan to talk. Mrs. Zhao smiled and said, "You two sisters-in-law have been tired for a long time in the morning. We will go after you take a nap in the afternoon."
Xin An smiled and said that the people from the cloth shop were coming to take measurements this afternoon. "I didn't plan to take a nap at all. I planned to go to Ningxiang Courtyard to talk to my sisters. Let's come together, auntie, and make some clothes for the New Year." There are many guests, so new clothes are indispensable.”
"In addition, I asked the owner of the jewelry shop to send me the latest jewelry. I will pick a few pieces together and wear them during the New Year."
Mrs. Zhao silently calculated the expenses here, and she couldn't let others pay for it. She also thought that on such a big day as the New Year, the three girls at home would indeed be taken out to show everyone, so that people would know about the Hou Mansion. There are three more girls that I can kiss, so I feel that the money should be spent.
Mrs. Wang said, "Everyone in the house made some clothes during the New Year's Eve, and the women added some jewelry. You came late, but you are also from our Hou family. This time, the clothes and jewelry will go to the public account of the house. Can’t refuse.”
"This is something only our own family has."
They gave me a full twenty thousand taels of silver. Isn’t it worth a few pieces of clothing and jewelry?
Mrs. Zhao felt grateful again in her heart, so she no longer refused. The group of people walked to Ningxiang Courtyard chatting and laughing. On the way, as expected, they met Mr. Zhang and her two girls who were waiting specially for them. As they said nicely, " My two girls are about the same age as the three girls from the Tang family, so we just happened to be chatting together."
With sharp eyes, she saw three girls holding mother-of-pearl jewelry boxes. They took a few steps forward with admiration on their faces, "Lacquerware is rare, especially the ones inlaid with mother-of-pearl. A small plate is so expensive that it makes your teeth hurt. Such a large and exquisite one is very rare." Boxes are not cheap.”
"But the old lady gave it to the three girls?"
"The old lady really cares about you, the Tang family."
The two Wei sisters wanted to bury their heads in the ground, it was so embarrassing.
But it’s not like they don’t have a mother-of-pearl jewelry box, so why bother saying that they have never seen the world?
They didn't understand that the Wei family was obviously not poor, and their mother also had money, so why should they not be generous and embarrassed?
Mrs. Wang smiled softly and said, "The old lady didn't give it to me. Their second sister-in-law brought it back to them."
Zhang glanced at Xin An with a sour look, "The salt merchant is really rich."
Xin An said with a smile, "Three sisters came from afar. As my sister-in-law, I like them. When I see someone I like, I want to bring them back."
"I also wanted to give it to the two younger sisters of the Wei family. I am afraid that my eldest brother and sister-in-law will be too worried. If my aunt likes it too, I will tell my sister-in-law where to buy it later. Although it is inconvenient for her to go out, the family status of our Hou family is here. "It's okay to send someone to buy it back or have the shopkeeper deliver it to your house and pick it up slowly."
This was originally meant to block Mrs. Zhang, but Mrs. Zhang thought the proposal was good. They were all sisters-in-law. Compared with Xin'an's generosity to the three girls of the Tang family, Tao Yiran was so generous to the sisters of the Wei family.
Seeing that she was a little moved, Xin An, who was just watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously, spoke again, "In a moment, the shopkeeper of Bubu Village and the shopkeeper of the jewelry shop will bring materials and jewelry. I am going to choose them for the three sisters again. Some, make some new clothes.”
"Auntie knows that there are rules for the interactions between the female relatives of our noble families. If you wear something to the banquet this time, you can't wear it again to the next banquet. The same goes for jewelry. This is only decent."
"Auntie and two cousins, do you want to do it together? I'll send someone to ask my sister-in-law to come."
The meaning was already obvious, let Tao Yiran pay. Wang and Zhao started to watch the excitement and wanted to see how Zhang would respond. If they agreed, they would be short-sighted. If not, they would have to pay for it themselves. According to Zhang's temperament, they would definitely outshine the Tang family. This flower The sales are not small.
But just leaving like this, I don't know if she can swallow this breath.
Seeing that Ms. Zhang was about to agree, the Wei sisters stepped forward and said, "Mom, we just made a few sets of clothes. We will have enough for the New Year, so we don't need to make any more clothes."
"Yes, I also bought several items of jewelry. Today, the Tang sisters are choosing clothes and jewelry. Let's just watch the excitement."
The two sisters really didn't want to be embarrassed and tried to persuade them anxiously. Mrs. Zhang didn't agree. She pushed the two sisters to the three sisters of the Tang family and asked them to play with them. "Mom wants to go see your cousin, so I won't follow." There you go."
After saying a few more words about the scene, they headed in the direction of Chunhua Courtyard. Xin An and Wang's eyes met, and they both felt that they were going to Tang Rong to complain. Maybe there was still something to watch in this scene.
They were all decent people, and the presence of the Wei sisters did not spoil everyone's mood. They were still talking and laughing while walking on the road.
On the other hand, the three sons of the Tang family are quite sympathetic to the Wei sisters. After all, with such a mother, I heard that she even took them out to perform arts. If it were their place, they would not be willing to die. Without that courage.
Xin'an didn't take the initiative to show kindness to the Wei sisters. They were relatives of Tang Rong and had nothing to do with her, let alone spend money on them.
No matter how sympathetic she was, she couldn't sympathize with the Wei family.
The Ningxiang Courtyard is spacious, with various varieties of chrysanthemums in full bloom, and several plum blossoms blooming one after another, carrying a faint fragrance.

The room was warm, and tea was brought in as soon as everyone sat down. Wang and Zhao sat and talked, while Xin'an was pulled by several girls to cut plum blossoms and put them in vases, and laughter like silver bells continued in the yard. After a while, the embarrassed Wei sisters relaxed a little and joined in with a smile.
In fact, Ms. Wang and Xin An were right. When Ms. Zhang arrived at Chunhua Courtyard, she complained in front of Tang Rong. She babbled a lot and sprayed all over the table, "You said you have to choose fabrics and jewelry." , saying that she gave it to the three girls of the Tang family, mocking your two cousins for not being liked by your cousin, and also sending someone to invite your wife, what kind of idea do you think I don't know? "
"If I hadn't stopped them and come here, how could I have spent a lot of money?"
Tang Rong took a deep breath silently and said that he would wait for him here for a long time.
Waiting for him to get benefits before things are done?
"Have the two cousins returned to the courtyard?"
"Go back to some yard."
Mrs. Zhang looked very annoyed, "They wanted to go back, but the three bad girls from the Tang family insisted on dragging them to choose the ingredients. They just wanted to show off the upstart next door and spend money on them. What a bad girl. "
"You don't have to worry about them, and you don't have to ask your wife to go. If they choose the materials with a short eye, I can't spare them."
At this point, Tang Rong couldn't even pretend to be confused. He was so upset that he thought he should go out and pay homage. He had been hit by frequent disasters in the past few days, and recently he had lost money one after another. If he continued like this, he would There's not a penny left in there.
