Chapter 27 Vanity Is Trampled
Isn’t there a saying that says: Those with tattoos are afraid of heat, those with apples have no pockets, those with watches love to slap their legs, and those with gold teeth grin?
Mrs. Li is a typical type. Those who have rewards are afraid of heat and afraid that no one will know.
The sleeves of the flag dress were rolled up high by her, which looked very hot.
In fact, she was afraid that people would not see the new bracelet on her wrist, so she deliberately touched the hairpin on her head.
Ruoyin pulled her lips, intending to follow Li Shi's thoughts, and asked, "Seeing that the bracelet on your wrist is in good condition, it matches your complexion quite well."
"Hehe, I don't know if it's good or not, anyway~ it was given by the fourth master. For me, as long as it is a gift from the fourth master, I think it is very good!" Mrs. Li smiled proudly.
"Sent by fourth master, of course it's very good." Ruoyin picked up the cup on the side, took a sip, glanced at Liumama next to her, and said, "I saw that your bracelet is clearly green and white, It should be green jadeite with a white background, and it is indeed considered an upper-middle jadeite variety."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Li became even more complacent, smiling from ear to ear, "Fujin still has a good eye, don't tell me I don't know yet." She shook the bracelet in her hand and looked at it carefully.
Ruoyin smiled, then suddenly changed the topic, and said casually: "It's normal for your family to not understand these things, if it's even worse, I'm afraid I don't know, it's because when I got married, my mother-in-law gave me a reward There is only one dowry mother by my side, and I only know that the bracelet in your hand is green jade with a white background if she serves me well."
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Li immediately looked at Aunt Liu in the room.
Sure enough, on Liu Nanny's right wrist, she was wearing an emerald bracelet of similar color to hers.
It's just that Mrs. Li's bracelet has reliefs on it, while Nanny Liu's bracelet doesn't have reliefs.
This made the proud Li Shi feel as if someone had poured a basin of icy water from the top of her head, which made her feel chilly in June.
She thinks that Fujin is blatantly humiliating her, something that she considers a treasure, but the servants around Fujin had it several years ago.
Her complexion was not very good at the moment, she just smiled stiffly and said: "It looks similar, but mine was given by the fourth master, so it must be different. Could it be that my sister has been grounded recently, so I will be sour on my sister?"
Li Shi is not a good stubble either, and he doesn't want to forgive others.
"How could it be? It's good that you and Mrs. Song can distract me." Ruoyin was amiable, not annoyed at all, then turned her head and gestured to Mammy Liu, and said, "There are still more in the warehouse." Bracelets, bring the pair of jadeite bracelets, I think they are suitable for Song Gege."
After Grandma Liu agreed, she immediately went to the warehouse to pick it up.
Mrs. Song got up, looking flattered, "Fu Jin, this is absolutely impossible, you even gave the servant some satin last time."
In this backyard, Mrs. Song felt that she would not be rewarded for doing nothing, and Ruoyin suddenly changed her temper. Instead of being harsh on her, she gave her a lot of rewards, so she was a little flustered.
Ruoyin saw Song's thoughts, waved his hands, and said, "It's okay, it's not a very good bracelet, it's just hibiscus jadeite, it's a little better than green jadeite with a white background, you still deserve it, besides, the bracelet Isn’t it just for people to wear, I have too many jewelry, and it’s a waste to put it in the warehouse.”
It doesn't have to be too good, it just needs to be better than Li Shi's bracelet, otherwise it will really scare Song Shi.
"The servant thanked Fujin very much." Since that was the case, the Song family had no choice but to accept it politely.
Looking at Fujin's intentions, he didn't intend to win her over to become a gang, but simply competed against Fujin Li.
Ruoyin and Song Shi chatted back and forth, which made Li Shi who was sitting beside her feel "slapped" in the face.
When Ruoyin said that the servants around her also had white emeralds, she felt ashamed.
Now Ruoyin gave Song's bracelet a reward, but he also threatened that the quality of the bracelet was better than hers.
People don't care about her precious things, they can be given to slaves a few years ago.
This is not over yet, turning around can reward Song Shi even better, the key is that Song Shi's status is lower than hers, he is just a geezer!
Li felt that her vanity was trampled to pieces by Ruoyin.
However, when she said anything, she had to wait until the moment when Fujin really gave it to the Song family. She wanted to see if Fujin was really so generous!
Li Shi was so angry that his chest heaved violently, he picked up the teacup at the side and drank most of the tea to calm down.
After a while, Nanny Liu came out holding a jewelry box, and she put the jewelry box in front of Ruoyin to confirm.
Ruoyin glanced at her and nodded in affirmation.
Then, Nanny Liu handed the jewelry box to Mrs. Song, "Song Gege, this is Fujin's wish."
After Song got up to take it, she saluted Ruoyin again and thanked her.
"Don't just salute, do you like it?" Ruoyin smiled.
"Yes." Song Shi sat down and opened the box.
When she saw the shimmering green and finer hibiscus jadeite bracelet in the box, she was a little pleasantly surprised.
Her family is not very good, and her father is only a sixth-rank manager. Anyway, she has never seen such a beautiful bracelet in her life.
And the bracelet is also light pink-.-red, just like the color of hibiscus flower, and there are thread carvings like water waves on it, which is very beautiful.
Song first took a bracelet and put it on her right wrist, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, which was a kind of liking from the bottom of her heart.
Then she shook Ruoyin and said happily, "Fu Jin, the servant likes it very much."
"It's good if you like it, it means I gave this bracelet to the wrong person." Ruoyin smiled, and glanced at Li Shi lightly.
"Fu Jin is really a great hand, and Song Gege is also a sister." When Li Shi met Ruoyin's eyes, she stood up "suddenly", saluted so-so, her face and mouth were distorted in anger, "It's a pity that I suddenly felt unwell today, so I went back first."
"Since you're not feeling well, let's go back and rest." Ruoyin likes to see Li Shi deflated. Who sent her to her to slap her in the face?
Mrs. Li let out a soft "hum", supported Chunmei's hand and left.
With this tone, she couldn't bear to say anything, she must find a chance to talk to fourth master!
Looking at the back of Li Shi leaving, the corners of Ruoyin's mouth rose slightly.
A few days ago, she also received many rewards from the fourth master, and she was not as petty as Li Shi, who showed off everywhere.
If Mrs. Li was as disciplined as Mrs. Song, she would not have humiliated Mrs. Li like this.
However, Li Shi is a restless person, so as a Fujin, she will naturally not tolerate others clamoring in her territory.
She wants to show Mrs. Li that she doesn't have nothing, what she has is better, but she doesn't like to show off.
With her status, even if she is temporarily neglected by Fourth Master, that's not something she, a side Fujin, can compare and look down upon!
Now that Mrs. Li had left and everything was settled, Ruoyin asked Mrs. Song to go back too.
Song shi took a cautious look at Ruoyin, got up and saluted, and then went back.
That day, after fourth master returned home, he went to Mrs. Li's for dinner.
