The eldest lady just wants to be a crazy beauty

Chapter 6 Luck
Chai Pei replied: "That's not true."

Qin Ruizhi had the answer in her heart.

"Whirlpool Ridge is an unattended place at the border between the two places. Bandits often rob passing merchants there. The targets of bandits' robbery are usually wealthy merchants and caravans. Even my small carriage was robbed. , why wasn’t your large caravan robbed?”

Chai Pei was speechless for a moment, but after thinking about it carefully, he understood the meaning, even the fact that he was beaten inexplicably.

Qin Ruizhi was not robbed, but was accurately retaliated for eloping with Su Pan.

He was beaten inexplicably, not because he criticized Miss Yan, but because he passed by Whirlpool Ridge and rescued Qin Ruizhi who should have died.

Chai Pei frowned and said perfunctorily: "Maybe it's just luck."

"It seems like I'm just unlucky."

Qin Ruizhi smiled helplessly and offered the brocade box with both hands, "There is no way I can repay the kindness of saving my life. This is a picture of the beautiful scenery of the country that my uncle painted with his own hands. I express my sincerity and please accept it."

"How can the life-saving grace be offset by a few worthless ink paintings?"

Chai Pei glanced at Qin Ruizhi. He had a wooden hairpin stuck in his black hair. He walked into the hall and walked to Qin Ruizhi. He raised his hand and pulled the wooden hairpin off her head. "I'll keep this wooden hairpin first. It's a life-saving grace." , I will report it later.”

Qin Ruizhi's black hair instantly fell down and spread over her shoulders, and her pretty face looked like a red glow.

It's really inexplicable. Even if the ink paintings of Wailang from the Ministry of Industry are not valuable, they are still more valuable than cheap wooden hairpins.

This person just pulled her hairpin. He was so frivolous.

If it weren't for the fact that this disciple had brought her back from Whirlpool Ridge in a desperate situation, and saved her life, I would have struck him to death with one palm, beating his parents to the point of disowning him.

Qin Ruizhi suppressed her anger and said with deep eyes, "Mr. Chai, I have a bad reputation recently, and you pulled out the wooden hairpin that tied my hair, which made it worse for me. I am here to sincerely thank Mr. Chai, please don't embarrass me. .”

"I won't take your hairpin in vain, let me tell you something funny."

Chai Pei took away the wooden hairpin, turned his back to Qin Ruizhi, put away the brocade fan, put his hands behind his back, and said slowly: "I'm going out today, planning to go to Yuanyue Xiaozhu to taste Puzhou's delicacies, and I happened to catch a banquet Miss, when I heard someone talking about her right and wrong, out of pity and sympathy, I looked at her one more time, and then she ordered people to punch and kick me. Mr. Pei said that I was unlucky and suffered an unreasonable disaster, so, you see , Luck is something that happens now and then."

Qin Ruizhi was enlightened, and an incredible answer was about to come out.

It's not that Chai Pei is unlucky, it's just that he rescued Qin Ruizhi from dying in Whirlpool Ridge.

Just like Qin Ruizhi met the robbers in Whirlpool Ridge, it wasn't because she was unlucky, it was just because someone had carefully planned a killing situation for her.

Therefore, it is the Yan family.

……………… It was already dusk when Qin Ruizhi returned to Gaofu.

As soon as he stepped across the threshold, he bumped into Gao Lingzhou.

Gao Lingzhou paced back and forth at the door of the house. When he saw Qin Ruizhi, his expression immediately dropped and he screamed: "Qin Ruizhi..."

She grabbed Qin Ruizhi's arm, pulled Qin Ruizhi into the door, slammed the door, and then began to scold her self-righteously, "You went out to fool around again? Su Pan doesn't want you anymore, who do you want to hook up with?"

She really wanted to tear this dog's mouth off, so Qin Ruizhi resisted the urge to beat him up, "A Zhou, if you can't speak, just sew your mouth shut. If you don't use your eyes, poke them out. If you don't like them, don't show them up."

"I have eyes..." Gao Lingzhou grabbed Qin Ruizhi's hanging hair, "You obviously tied up your hair when you went out today, but when you came back, your hair was disheveled, and you said you weren't fooling around with others? Qin Ruizhi, you are really possessed by a ghost, and you have let people take away your soul. , Behaving more and more weirdly. I'm going to find my aunt and ask her to read a few more volumes of scriptures to drive away the ghost energy from you."

As he spoke, he walked towards the west courtyard.

After Gao Zhiying and her son were divorced, they had been living in Xikuayuan for many years. They never took a step out of Xikuayuan. They chanted sutras and worshiped Buddha every day and did not care about worldly affairs.

In her previous life, she had heard her elders mention Gao Zhiying, and every time she mentioned it, she felt infinite regret. The female general who was so high-spirited back then was forced to become an ascetic with a broken lamp.

Gao Zhiying's practice of worshiping Buddha and purifying himself is more like a kind of self-imprisonment.

Qin Ruizhi thought for a while and decided not to disturb her Qingqiu. She took a few steps to catch up with Gao Lingzhou and blocked her way. "A Zhou, don't bother my mother with these little things. Let her eat fast and chant Buddha's name. I will do it today." I went to the Pei Mansion to thank the Pei Mansion for saving my life. You also know that the man in the house is poor and can't give you a decent gift, so to show your sincerity, you kowtowed to the Pei family three times, so you were a little embarrassed."

"Qin Ruizhi, you are crazy..." There was another harsh shout, and Gao Lingzhou stamped his feet angrily, "How can you kowtow to the Pei family? You are a child raised by our Gao family."

Qin Ruizhi pretended to be confused and said pitifully: "I was also deceived by ghosts, so I was bewitched by Su Pan. I made the wrong mistake and got into a big disaster. After walking away from the ghost gate, I have figured out many things. I felt more and more guilty, so I decided to go to Pei's house to thank me for saving my life, and then kowtow to Sister Yan to apologize. I will never complain if Sister Yan wants to be beaten or punished."

Gao Lingzhou was convinced by these words. He nodded with satisfaction and said, "You should kowtow to my cousin and apologize. However, it also depends on whether my cousin is willing to forgive you. My cousin hates you, so don't run away rashly first. When I went to Yan's house, I made my cousin unhappy. I'll make a decision after I send someone to Yan's house to ask my cousin."

The Yan family is a famous family in Puzhou, and their ancestor is the Marquis of Chengping.When Su Yiling was a Hanlin scholar, Yan Youli was a Hanlin student. Later, when the crown prince ascended the throne, Su Yiling was appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Because of his fellow villagers and the friendship between teachers and students, Su Yiling asked the emperor for favor and gave Yan Youli the post of Doctor of Imperial College.A few years later, Sizhou was hit by floods, and Yan Youli was sent to provide disaster relief. A huge amount of corruption was discovered, and he was dismissed from his post and has been idle at home.

It is said that a phoenix in distress is worse than a chicken. Since Yan Youli was dismissed from his post, all the people who used to fawn over the Yan family have disappeared. Even the Pei family, a small businessman, dared to ride on his head and act wildly.

"Pei Xingheng, he is so brave..."

Yan Yingzhu swept all the tea sets on the table to the floor, making a crackling sound, and broke into pieces. He sat down on the stool and felt uneasy: "Who is Pei Xingheng? He is a despicable copper-smelling merchant. How dare he take Qiao from me?" , said he wouldn’t do the Yan family’s business. I still don’t believe it. I can’t buy anything with money. The Pei family is not the only merchant in Puzhou.”

In Puzhou, which is such a big city, there are so many shops, large and small, that the Pei family accounts for seventy-eight percent, and the remaining shops have to get their goods from the Pei family.
