Chapter 60: Encounter Potential 2 (There is always a gap between ideal and reality)

Ling Mei was stopped by her master's words.

"Mr. Ren, don't you recognize me? He is Mr. Ren who often comes to our mansion in the past." Ling Mei kept explaining in her hand.

Xie Yuanniang was stunned.

Ren Xianhong?

That is Ren Xianhong?

After she came back from rebirth, she wanted to create a good impression and wanted to take over the future Minister of the Ministry of Personnel!

Xie Yuanniang covered her face and couldn't help but feel discouraged.

God, this incident today has disrupted her plan.

"Girl, what's wrong?" Ling Mei saw the girl suddenly lying on the dressing table, afraid that she would feel uncomfortable just after being poured by water. "I will immediately combed her hair bun, and let the wife take the initiative now! It's all my fault for Mr. Ren. After returning to the house, I will tell her that she will keep the Ren family away in the future."

A man is really not a good person to pull a woman in a way.

"I'm fine." Xie Yuanniang cheered up and defended Ren Xianhong unwillingly. "Young Master Ren is kind-hearted. He misunderstood that the water will pour me on, so he pulled me a little. He didn't want to do it but got the trouble. You can't blame him for this. Don't tell your mother after you go back. Have you heard it? There are also those servants, you should also give me some advice."

Secretly, Xie Yuanniang rubbed her fists and swallowed her breath first, and then she would deal with Ren Xianhong when she got married in the future.

No matter what, Xie Yuanniang is reluctant to throw away such a good potential stock.

It surprised Mei, "The girl just said that she slapped Mr. Ren in the face in public, why did she say that she wouldn't blame him anymore?"

Xie Yuanniang secretly spitted on herself, and said with a calm expression, "I am teasing you. Look at Mr. Ren's gentleman is as gentle as jade, how can he do that?"

Ling Mei couldn't twist it for a moment.

Xie Yuanniang immediately changed the topic, "It's rare to know today. My sister is still waiting for me. It's not harmful to just pour some water. I'm fine, so let's go quickly."

Xie Yuanniang combed a single bun and brought a transparent green plum hairpin, a white dress. The outside was a big red base, black and white edges and a pair of legs. The fifteen-year-old girl made her look more and more beautiful under her red dress.

Ling Mei looked up and down and couldn't help but praise, "Miss is so beautiful."

Xie Yuanniang walked out and said casually, "It's the clothes of Caishang Pavilion that are well made. Tell the shopkeeper to go to the mansion to settle the settlement tomorrow."

As a result, as soon as he came out, he met the shopkeeper who was waiting outside. Xie Yuanniang said in person. The shopkeeper was also amazed when he saw Xie Yuanniang. "Miss Second Girl has made famous for our Caishang Pavilion, and these clothes are given to the girl. It is also our glory to be able to wear the dresses of our Caishang Pavilion."

Xie Yuanniang was not very polite at that time. She whispered after taking Ling Mei out of Caishang Pavilion, "You ask Hanxue to find out which boss behind Caishang Pavilion tomorrow."

Living for a lifetime, Xie Yuanniang doesn't believe that a shop like Caishang Pavilion, which is famous, will give out dresses for free because of the two beautiful girls of the Xie family. She still doesn't understand what's going on, so she first finds out who the boss is before dealing with it.

In the private room on Caishang's attic, Jiang Yi stood beside his master. Caishang Pavilion was also Gu Yuan's private property. There were branches in all counties in the Taiyuan Dynasty. Today, he was just going to the yamen, and there were more people on the street. Then he stopped near Caishang Pavilion, not wanting to encounter this scene.

"Second Master, Lord Wang is here."

There was footsteps at the stairs, and Wang Yun, who was a little fat, appeared in the private room at the corner.

Wang Yun is currently the Minister of Personnel, who is directly under Gu Yuan. After coming in, he bowed his body and greeted him, "Sir, the governor of Heyun Xu's mansion was robbed. The emperor was furious and sent Minister Su from the Ministry of War to investigate the matter."

Gu Yuan said indifferently, "In June, the rain in the south of the Yangtze River is heavy. Just focus on the construction of river embankments and manage the affairs of the Ministry of Personnel well. There are many water bandits in the south of the Yangtze River. The emperor was furious because the official office was targeted. The governor of Heyun truthfully reported the amount of money robbed. The emperor was the first to refuse him."

Wang Yun was sweating all over, "Remember the humble position."

He, a man over forty, was in front of the thirty-year-old Jufu, but he was so angry that he did not dare to breathe. Even the Ministry of Personnel lacked money and raised the money for the river embankment, which was something they dared not think about. People looked sick and gentle, clean and ruthless, and the second-rank governor of Heyun dared to rob him. What else could they not do?

"You don't have to worry too much about this, and you don't have to ask me for something privately in the future."

Gu Yuan touched the teacup, and Wang Yun looked at it secretly, facing the faint gaze that had come to see. On this young assistant, Wang Yun felt the steadfast and restraint of the wise old man who had accumulated over the years. But when he looked deeper, he was the domineering and demeanor who was in a high position. His eyes were as calm as a snake, which made people feel cold behind him. He knew that it was his actions that were too reckless this time, which angered this person. But if it weren't for this person's reminder, they would not dare to defend themselves, and they responded respectfully.

—————

In a teahouse not far from Caishang Pavilion, when Xie Yuanniang walked in, she saw that the teahouse was full of people sitting in an empty cushion. When she heard someone shouting "Second Girl", Xie Yuanniang looked over and saw Xie Wenhui sitting in the corner.

Xie Yuanniang came over with Ling Mei. Before she could speak, Xie Wenhui spoke first, "Why have you changed your dress?"

"I just got dirty on the road, and there was a ready-to-wear shop next door, so I went to change my clothes." Xie Yuanniang was in a mess, thinking about how Ren Xianhong looked at her, but there was no way. She sat on the chair Ling Mei had wiped, and said boredly, "I heard that the questions in the top scholar building are difficult. What questions have been issued in previous years?"

She asked unintentionally, but Xie Wenhui became interested and poured her a cup without hesitation, "Why did you suddenly ask this?"

When the tea cup was handed over, his eyes were staring at Xie Yuanniang's eyes.

Xie Yuanniang was thinking about how to make Ren Xianhong have a good impression of her. At this time, she was considered to be in a hurry to seek medical treatment. Thinking that if she could make some achievements in the top scholar building, it might make him look at her differently. Didn’t he just like Dong Shi’s talent in painting?

He has seen the paintings himself, and he has talent and should have a good impression, right?

Of course, she couldn't say anything in her mouth. She said a few perfunctory words, "I don't know how many people are laughing behind my back. If the top scholar got the lottery today, it would be considered a rustic."

This idea is consistent with Xie Wenhui's idea. Both of them wanted to add glory to the Xie family, but they both had their own selfish intentions.
