Chapter 328 The Concubine Whose Appearance Was Plundered by the Heroine 11
The two of them were talking to each other, both encouraging Lou Xinlan to go to He's mother to complain.
Lou Xinlan knows her own worth.
Although she was born in the Lou family, she was just a concubine's daughter born to a concubine's son. From the perspective of blood relationship, her relationship with Madam He was not particularly close.
She was rejected by the Lou family as soon as she was born because of her dark skin, ugly appearance, and bad body odor. They said she was the reincarnation of a wild boar spirit and almost drowned her.
Mrs. He, who had come back to visit her family, couldn't bear to see this, so in order to show her kindness, she had her taken to the He Mansion to be raised.
Normally, Mrs. He didn't even ask her to pay her respects because she didn't like her body odor, let alone want to see her. How could she possibly have a rift with her cousin because of her?
Lou Xinlan felt sorry for herself.
Although her monthly allowance was twenty taels, it was not even a fraction of her cousin's. She had been planning to deposit the seventy taels of silver she had used to plot against Sheng Qiuyue at a silver shop. It was all her savings for the past year.
She just felt that she was the most pitiful person in the world and sighed sadly.
"Like Aunt Sheng said, I am just living under someone else's roof, how can I cause trouble to my aunt? Let's just leave it at that."
"Miss!" Xiao Hong stamped her feet: "You are just too kind."
In her opinion, her cousin was the best master. She ate at the same table with them, played games with them, and never lost her temper. She was just like a sister. So when she saw her cousin being bullied, she was more anxious than anyone else.
Xiaohong secretly wanted to teach Aunt Sheng a lesson so that she would never dare to bully her cousin again.
Lou Xinlan walked back absent-mindedly.
She knew that she was ugly, so she could only work on her inner beauty. She would also give some copper coins to homeless beggars to highlight her kindness and benevolence.
But she hasn't given favors for a while since she knew she could become beautiful, and now her mind is full of thoughts about how to make Sheng Qiyue accept her things.
She called out to the beauty system in her heart: [Xiaomei, is it okay if I secretly put something into her yard? ]
[No.] Xiaomei said: [You must give it to her directly. The more grateful she is to you, the more beauty points you will get.]
Lou Xinlan: [What if she doesn’t appreciate me? ]
System: [Then you won’t get any beauty points.]
Sheng Qiyue laughed: Is there such a thing?
She didn't know why she could hear this conversation, and was a little annoyed that she had spoken too early.
But it’s not too late to know now.
Sheng Qiyue licked her lips and decided to take advantage of Lou Xinlan, so she called the maid Cang Jia to her side.
"Go tell Lou Xinlan that I will forgive her if she gives me twenty taels."
Cangjia obeyed the order and indeed brought back twenty taels of silver ingots.
Sheng Qiyue looked disgusted, "Take my household registration..." Never mind, her household registration is still in the Sheng family, so she won't go to the silver shop to deposit it, "Go to the silver shop and exchange it for two taels of gold for me."
She was living well now, but what about the future? Sheng Qiyue thought that she must save more money, the more the better, so that even if she couldn't make ends meet in the future, she could still run away.
Cangjia went out again.
After Sheng Qiyue finished taking a bath, another maid, Zhu Qing, helped her up and helped her put on clothes and dry her hair.
Shen Shaoyan was also soaked. He took a shower in another side room and came out first. He naturally took the towel from Zhu Qing's hand and wiped Sheng Qiyue's hair.
Sheng Qiyue leaned lazily in the chair, her jet-black hair cascading like a waterfall, exuding a faint fragrance.
Shen Shaoyan was drying her hair carefully at first. When his hand touched her delicate earlobe, his eyes gradually became deep. While July was not paying attention, he quietly used a little internal force to speed up the drying of her hair.
Sheng Qiyue was still thinking about how to get more money from Lou Xinlan when she was suddenly kissed on her earlobe. She couldn't help but let out a soft moan. Shen Shaoyan felt like he was being praised.
[The car flew into outer space, and the aliens gave a thumbs up and said: Good car, good car! (?▽?)]
Afterwards, Sheng Qiyue leaned in Shen Shaoyan's arms and told him about studying.
Shen Shaoyan knew what was going on as soon as he heard it: "Did... your mother tell you?"
Sheng Qiyue nodded: "I didn't want to put so much pressure on the young master. I am very satisfied with my life now, but the lady has spoken, and I dare not disobey."
"This is easy." Shen Shaoyan said, supporting his head, and stroking Sheng Qiyue's hair with his other hand. It felt like silk and he couldn't let it go.
He said, "I will go to study and let you be an official's wife in the future."
Sheng Qiyue was laughing so hard that her body was shaking, but she didn't take it seriously. He Wenmao could read, and she would rather believe that a sow could climb a tree.
But the sow really climbed the tree.
Shen Shaoyan found He's mother and said that he could study, but the mansion was very noisy and he needed a quiet environment to study.
He's mother was delighted: "This is easy, just sell the concubine you don't like." She knew that a concubine had died in the artificial lake, and she felt it was unlucky, and had long wanted to give those restless women a lesson.
He Wenmao didn't care about those women, and Shen Shaoyan didn't care either. He said, "Mother is right. Let's just send all the people in Fanghua Courtyard away."
What, all?! He's mother suspected that she had heard it wrongly: "Did they really sell all of them?"
Shen Shaoyan nodded, and He's mother couldn't help but be happy: "My son has finally figured it out. After those concubines are dealt with, mother will definitely marry you a lady from a wealthy family."
"No rush." Shen Shaoyan said: "I already have a son, and the most important thing now is to study."
He's mother didn't quite agree, thinking that she had underestimated Sheng Qiyue's influence on her son, but she knew that now was not the time to burn bridges.
I decided to follow my son's wishes in this matter, give Sheng Qiyue a little sweetness, let her be the only one for a while, and then she will do a better job for me in the future.
It's not a big deal anyway, and I don't suffer any loss.
After thinking it through, He's mother said, "It's okay to wait. As long as you study hard, I will listen to you in everything."
Shen Shaoyan continued, "There is one more thing. Lou Xinlan has lived in the mansion for too long. Now she is of marriageable age. It would be better to let her return to her family and let them arrange a marriage for her."
He's mother was embarrassed: "This...Xinlan is used to living in the mansion, and marriage is even more difficult. As the wife of the prefect, I can't do anything, so what can the Lou family do?"
Seeing Shen Shaoyan's unhappy expression, He's mother comforted him, "She is your cousin after all. If you think she is an eyesore, I will let her stay in her own yard. She won't affect you."
After all, it's not their own home. Shen Shaoyan said, "It can't affect Aunt Sheng either."
"Okay, I'll tell her." Mother He said, "Do I want to study in the academy or stay in the mansion?"
"In the mansion." Shen Shaoyan did not forget his mission.
"Okay." Although He's mother was happy about her son's transformation, she was also afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold on for long. It was just right for him to stay at home so that she could know his movements and prevent him from doing anything wrong outside.
So Shen Shaoyan began his study life in He's house, while Lou Xinlan was under house arrest.
Xiaohong and Xiaotao felt sorry for her and thought that Aunt Sheng was narrow-minded. She took the money and took revenge on the young lady. It was really bullying.
Lou Xinlan was distracted because she failed to deduct Sheng Qiyue's beauty points.
[Xiaomei, what's going on? Why can't I get any beauty points? ]
The beauty system was also surprised. It was the first time I encountered such a situation.
[After checking, it turns out that you can't get any beauty points because her gratitude towards you is -100.]
Lou Xinlan had never learned about negative numbers, so she was a little confused: [What is -100? ]
