This year's Mid-Autumn Festival was celebrated in Fucheng.
The Mid-Autumn Festival was open for three days, and every night there were lanterns and colorful flowers. Ye Zhenzhen took the opportunity to visit and experience the prosperity and fun different from the county town.
Shortly after the festival, Xu Ziqin recovered from the cold and came to visit with his wife. Ye Zhenzhen saw his wife, Qin Yueru, again.
The two men have a close friendship, and being a wife is bound to involve social interactions. However, Qin Yueru has a cold temperament and is not very social with others. The two have not seen each other for more than a year, and Ye Zhenzhen does not have to show her affection to others.
They are cold butts and have little friendship with each other, just to maintain face-saving feelings.
"Ms. Ye, I heard that Mantingfang is your property. I happen to have run out of Luoxia ointment and purple jasmine powder. Can I buy a few boxes from you? Don't worry, I will pay you according to the market price."
There was silence everywhere, and everyone looked at Qin Yueru who was speaking.
Qin Yueru seemed to realize her offense, looked at Ye Zhenzhen very embarrassed, and said sincerely, "I'm sorry, Madam Ye, I don't have any other intentions. I will ask the maid to go to Mantingfang to buy it tomorrow. No need to bother.
is you."
Ye Zhenzhen smiled faintly, without any warmth in her eyes.
No wonder Qin Yueru didn't want to have a close relationship with her. It turned out to be because he looked down on her identity - probably in her mind, she was just a peasant girl and businessman who was vulgar and interested in profit, and couldn't stand up to the public eye.
Otherwise, he would not come to the house as a guest and buy two boxes of powder in front of the host. To put it bluntly, he felt that Ye Zhenzhen was reluctant to part with those boxes of things.
"It's just powder. I originally wanted to give Madam Qin a few boxes, but it seemed like she was greedy for profit. Madam Qin should let her servants buy them."
Ye Zhenzhen said, "By the way, I am not Man Tingfang's employer. Madam Qin, please don't misunderstand me. If you tell me, people will laugh."
Qin Yueru seemed stunned for a moment, "Turns out I misunderstood. I've heard the story of Madam Ye's wits against the bad guys for Man Tingfang many times, and I thought you were Man Tingfang's employer."
Ye Zhenzhen lowered her eyes and drank tea, not wanting to explain the inside story to her.
She is not someone, so why should she!
On the other side, Xu Ziqin was embarrassed. Looking at Cui Weizhen, who had become cold and distant, he felt annoyed and guilty. He quickly apologized to him and stopped his wife who was causing trouble, "Cousin, don't talk nonsense. Madam Ye is too smart.
A person can be compared to an extraordinary woman, so don’t compare her to an ordinary businessman.”
He still remembers Ye Zhenzhen's sketching skills. Cui Weizhen learned it from her and drew it for them to see. It was really amazing. This kind of technique was enough to establish a school.
Anyone who founded a sect is bound to leave a mark in the annals of history. How can such achievements be matched by ordinary women?
Therefore, Xu Ziqin's praise of Ye Zhenzhen is justified.
A flash of displeasure flashed in Qin Yueru's eyes, but she still maintained a smile on her face, "Okay, I understand, you always praise Mrs. Ye with me at home. Don't I know how powerful she is? I'm just curious and want more
Just get to know it."
This is even more inappropriate to say.
What does it mean for Xu Ziqin, a foreigner, to constantly talk about other people's wives?
Except for Qin Yueru, who seemed to say it casually, the faces of the three people present were a little ugly.
Cui Weizhen picked up the tea cup and said calmly, "Brother Xu, you have just recovered from a serious illness. It is not advisable to stay outside for too long. Go back and rest early."
Everyone was serving tea to see off the guests, what else could Xu Ziqin say?
He had never been so embarrassed, his face turned red, he stood up and bowed to Cui Weizhen and Ye Zhenzhen to apologize, but he had no way to apologize, so he had to say, "I have bothered you two today, I will come to apologize in person in the future.
Farewell."
Qin Yueru didn't seem to notice that she was the cause of the ruined atmosphere, and said goodbye gracefully. This level of shamelessness was amazing.
This shows that her skills are not low. The so-called cold temperament and unsociable temperament are just an excuse for not wanting to associate with Ye Zhenzhen.
Cui Weizhen kept turning on the air conditioner. He didn't stop even after Xu Ziqin and his wife left. Ye Zhenzhen found it funny and rubbed his handsome face in the past. "You're still keeping a straight face. Come on, just smile. They're just irrelevant people."
That’s all, no matter what she thinks, there’s no need to take it to heart.”
In two lifetimes combined, she had encountered a lot of weird things, but she really didn't take Qin Yueru's insinuations seriously.
But Cui Weizhen was different. Even if Ye Zhenzhen was making jokes, his eyebrows were just slightly loose. He kept a cold face and said, "Don't worry, I won't let them come to your door next time."
Ye Zhenzhen was startled and advised, "That's not necessary. Xu Ziqin did nothing wrong. There is no need to affect your friendship because of his wife."
"He has a responsibility if he fails to teach his wife well."
Judging from his expression, he is taking the group sitting very seriously.
Ye Zhenzhen was helpless and moved at the same time. She knew that he did this all because of her - he was using his own attitude to show his protection for her, even if the other person was his good friend.
The angry man could not be persuaded, so Ye Zhenzhen had no choice but to postpone her plan of persuading him and wait until his anger subsided before persuading him slowly.
However, it turns out that she thought too much, and even Jiu Niu could not get back what Cui Weizhen decided.
After Xu Ziqin came to apologize again, Cui Weizhen didn't show anything at that time, but Ye Zhenzhen could clearly sense that he was no longer as close to Xu Ziqin as before.
This is specifically reflected in social interactions. In the past, when Xu Ziqin was invited to any poetry meeting, Cui Weizhen would always attend the appointment to save face when he had time. Now he would rather stay at home than go. Gradually, Xu Ziqin noticed it and rarely sent messages to his door anymore.
Zhang Yuan was so nervous that he could run a horse. He had no idea that the two friends had fallen out, and he happily came over to complain, "Ziqin is so unloyal. I made an appointment to come to your house for a dinner, but now I regret it."
, He only cares about accompanying his wife, he really forgets his true love."
Cui Weizhen didn't point it out, and said in the tone of someone who has experienced it, "You haven't gotten married yet, so you don't understand the importance of the relationship between husband and wife."
Zhang Yuan: "..."
As an older, unmarried young man, he received sweet blows from married women and men.
"When I return from this provincial examination, no matter what the result is, my mother will kiss me and you will never have the chance to mock me again."
Zhang Yuan felt quite proud. You must know that ever since he met Cui Weizhen, he has shown affection to him frequently. When he gets married in the future, it will be his turn.
Cui Weizhen raised his eyebrows and said, "I wish you good luck."
Not everyone in this world can be as lucky as him and marry a wife as satisfying as Zhen Zhen.
