Charm King Poison Queen

  Chapter 247 Tear up another white lotus, Yueyue's discovery (8)

  Qiuxiang didn't expect that she had been relegated to the third-class maid, and she would have such an opportunity again, so she cried with joy.

  Compared to her crying with joy, Dongmei's face was almost pale. In terms of ability, she is better than Qiuxiang; in terms of appearance, she is more beautiful than Qiuxiang; in terms of dealing with people, she is also more tactful than Qiuxiang; let alone planning, she is not inferior to Qiuxiang! As for the recognition of characters, she knew little, but the account books were not too incomprehensible. What's more, Qiuxiang has betrayed Miss, and she has always been loyal!

  She is so much better off than Qiuxiang, why wasn't she transferred to be the shopkeeper?

  Out of Tangli Courtyard, Dongmei burst into tears.

  Opening a shop has always been her dream, and she prefers the feeling of selling out all the goods and sitting at the counter at night to make calculations than being saddled.

  If she didn't have such an opportunity, she wouldn't think about it. The key is that she had it and gave it back to Qiuxiang! That Qiuxiang who almost killed Miss San! It's so unsatisfactory!

  Bai Shuang'er got up in the morning and was walking in the garden when she saw a maidservant in pale pink bijia sitting on a stone bench and crying. When she walked over, she turned out to be Dongmei from Tangliyuan.

   "It's Dongmei, it's so early in the morning, why are you crying?" She asked softly.

  Dongmei didn't bother to talk to Third Miss's deadly enemy, she got up, saluted slightly, and was about to leave.

  Bai Shuang'er said: "I am not a poisonous snake or beast, so afraid of me what to do? Did your lady tell you not to talk to me?"

"No."

Bai Shuang'er sat down beside her, took her hand, and let her sit down together: "Okay, you sit down. Don't worry, I'm not here to ask you for information. I'll let you know what's going on in Tangliyuan I have no interest. Since you got the words out of my maid yesterday, you should understand my position in the fourth master's heart. Unless you kill me, my position as equal wife is guaranteed. Therefore, there is no need for me to fight with you. What are you fighting for? On the contrary, I will do nothing to be safer and more comfortable.”

  This Bai Shuang'er is a rare sensible person, she thought she would just pretend to be pitiful. If Lin Yonghe had thought clearly at the beginning, he would not have been forced into chaos by the third lady. Thinking about it this way, Dongmei felt a little admiration for Bai Shuang'er.

Bai Shuang'er gently hooked the corners of her lips, and smiled as beautifully as spring under the morning light: "Of course, if you have any troubles, you can tell me. I have helped my father manage the pharmacy all these years, see More people have eaten than you have eaten rice."

   "Your family also runs a pharmacy?" Dongmei suddenly became interested.

  Bai Shuang'er opened her eyes wide: "What do you mean our family is the same? Yours is too?"

  Dongmei shook her head: "No, it's not, it's...the second wife of our mansion, who opened a pharmacy."

   "Oh, Second Madam." Bai Shuang'er didn't say anything more.

  As she promised herself, she didn't ask Dongmei for any news about Tangliyuan. She just bathed in the morning light and enjoyed the surrounding scenery.

  Dongmei pinched the corner of her clothes, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Miss Bai, if your pharmacy needed an accountant and shopkeeper, who would you choose?"

  Bai Shuang'er glanced at Dongmei, and smiled warmly: "Anyway, it's not someone like you."

   "Why?" Dongmei blurted out!

   Bai Shuang'er said: "You are too smooth and dishonest, you will make the shop your own, not mine any more."

  Dongmei blushed.

Bai Shuang'er said again: "Of course, if I were your third lady, and I didn't give you the chance to be the shopkeeper in the store, it should be more because you are more suitable to stay with me than any other maid. What they can do, You can do it too; what they can’t do, you can still do. The shopkeeper grabs a lot, it’s nothing more than spending more money, but a confidant who can do everything by his side, sometimes...is not so easy to get. If it was Qingmei last night I'm asking you for a routine, I believe she can't get any useful information. A person's ability can sometimes become a stepping stone for her to stand higher, and sometimes it can also become a ditch that hinders her progress."

This is the first time Dongmei has heard of such "fallacy". She always thought that the better a person's ability, the higher the level he can climb, so she kept working hard and proving herself to Miss San, In order to win Miss San's trust, she "betrayed" Qiuxiang even. But he didn't expect that such a self would instead give the impression that Miss San would use any means to achieve her goals. But Qiuxiang's single-minded honest person is more suitable for remote control, because he doesn't have to worry about having a wrong mind someday.

  At this moment, Dongmei didn't know which one to say, Bai Shuang'er or Miss San, whose eyes were more vicious.

   In terms of intrigue, Bai Shuang'er is indeed no match for the third lady, but when it comes to Yuren, Bai Shuang'er is not inferior, no wonder she beats the fourth master to death.

  Dongmei returned to Tangli Courtyard, feeling much better.

  Ning Yue was embroidering the return gift to Mrs. Guo, when she saw Dongmei with a completely different complexion, she asked, "Where did you go?"

  Dongmei was startled, and subconsciously wanted to conceal what she had seen with Bai Shuang'er, but then she thought, if Bai Shuang'er, a vixen, had stabbed Miss San earlier, wouldn't Miss San be suspicious of her?

   "The servant girl just went to the garden, met Bai Shuang'er, and said a few words."

  Ning Yue hummed lightly and continued to embroider.

  Dongmei was startled again: "Miss San...won't you ask what we said?"

  Ning Yue didn't even raise her eyelids, and said lazily, "Isn't it just to comfort you?"

   "Uh..." Dongmei blinked and almost asked, did you send someone to follow me? After a while, she lowered her eyes and said in a low voice, "You can see it?"

  Ning Yue bit off the end of the thread, changed a needle, and said, "It seems that you have a good impression of her."

"Nor...it's not like this, it's just that this servant thinks...she's not as good as she appears on the surface..." Dongmei struggled with adjectives, "Oh, let's put it this way! This servant always thought that she only knew how to seduce men, but now I know that she There is also some wisdom in my mind. Our fourth master thinks so much about her, maybe it's not entirely because we owe their family a life. This servant feels... Fourth master... tempted. "

   "Ha!" Ning Yue laughed suddenly, causing Dongmei's scalp to go numb in fright, and Ning Yue said amusedly, "If you really think that way, you have fallen into her trap."

   "Gauge?" Where is the gage? what plan? Dongmei was at a loss.

  Ning Yue threaded the needle: "Did she tell you that her position in my father's heart is unshakable, so she doesn't need to fight with me, and sooner or later, she will be able to sit on the position of equal wife?"

  Dongmei nodded like pounding garlic!

  Ning Yue said with a faint smile: "She really wants to think so, why say it out? Just wait patiently. Don't be afraid... I'm provoked, and an unhappy one will attack her?"

   "Yes." Dongmei seemed to have an epiphany.

  Ning Yue curled up her lips coldly: "She's simply getting impatient, and she just wants to force me to make a move!"
