Jin Tingjiao

Chapter 19
"It's late at night, why is my sister still busy?"

She walked over, endured her hatred and sat down on the edge of the Kang next to Shen Xi.

"Anyway, sitting is sitting, it's better to be busy. It's already March, and the weather is hot, and I haven't even made summer shoes here. If I don't make progress, I'm afraid it will be a joke."

Shen Xi also smiled, while putting down his needle and thread, he served Yuan Bei with tea.

The young ladies of each family have their own rules about their clothes for the four seasons, and the Shen family is no exception.

But when it came to Erfang, the rules became empty talk.

In the afternoon when she was free, Shen Xi opened all the cabinets and looked, except for the valuable items, there were not many, even her clothes were mostly from the past, the materials were good, but they didn't fit.

The nearest ones fit well, but they were all made of low-grade materials. In the previous life, the big maids around her didn't like to wear them.

In the public house, the list is made first, and each room has a share, but now the long room is the long room, the third room is the housekeeper and the mistress, and the second room is left in vain.

Although the head of the house is not the head of the family, but the second house is being held tightly, so the head of the family may not have stretched out their hands.

As expected, the smile on Shen Xin's face became astringent, but she turned around and said, "Sister has really grown up, if mother knows that sister is so self-motivated, she must be very pleased.

"Why do you think I'm here again now? My mother asked me to come here specially, saying that my sister is so reasonable, and you will be my real sister in the future!"

Shen Xi caressed the cup, but only smiled faintly: "Auntie is polite."

Shen Xin served tea here, scanned the room, and said, "Why don't you see Aunt Pei?"

"Auntie went back to the room. Brother Liang came back covered in sweat after running outside in the afternoon, and heard that he was a bit cold. What, sister needs to find her?" Shen Xi said unhurriedly, shaking his fan.

Shen Xin forced a smile: "I just remembered that you said earlier that you wanted to use that poem about plums as a textbook for Brother Liang, so I just asked."

As he said that, he looked at her face, twisted the silk, and continued: "I thought about the previous poem later, and it is really wonderful, especially the handwriting, the more I think about it, the more wonderful it becomes.

"I wonder if my sister can give me another look?"

"I can't see it anymore." Shen Xi raised his chin slightly, looked at the banana leaf lying outside the window and said, "Someone has already brought it to Brother Liang."

Shen Xin was stunned, and suddenly straightened her back: "Why are your hands and feet so fast!"

Shen Xi turned his head to look at her for a while, then simply turned around: "Is there something wrong? I was going to give it to him."

Shen Xin blushed with anxiety, pinched her palms for a while before barely restraining the urge to scold her.

She didn't expect that she could be so impatient, and she was so eager to present treasures to Shen Liang before she got it warmed up in her hand!
It's really something that can't hold three ounces of oil in her stomach. She deserves that she won't be able to get on the stage for the rest of her life!
But she couldn't do anything else, she breathed a sigh of relief, managed to calm down and said, "Go get it back now, and I'll give you three volumes of poetry in exchange!"

As she said that, she took three neatly bound blue booklets from Qiu Chan, and handed them to Shen Xi: "These three poetry collections also contain the poem about plum blossoms, Brother Liang will definitely like it more when he sees it.

"How much can one learn from a poem? You have to learn from a hundred schools of thought to gain something."

Shen Xi casually flipped through two pages, then waved his fan again, "Sister, what do you mean, but do you want to take back that poem?"

"Give it to me, these collections of poetry are yours!" Shen Xin patted on the collection of poems.

Shen Xi didn't say anything, leaned on the pillow and started to shake his fan.

Shen Xin couldn't figure out what she meant, so she said, "If you don't like it, I can add a copybook."

Shen Xi still didn't speak, but picked up the cup and took a sip of rough tea while muffled.

Shen Xin urged: "You should say something!"

Shen Xi looked at the window for a long time before he breathed a sigh of relief and looked back at her: "My sister is so generous, it's really a lot.

"It's just that the poem about plum blossoms is the condition for me to sell the porcelain pillow to my sister. Without this poem, it would be impossible to sell the porcelain pillow to you.

"Now my sister wants to take this poem back again, which really makes me very difficult."

As she spoke, she took out a piece of paper from her cuff and fiddled with it, unfolding and closing it under the light, closing and unfolding it again.

Even if you can't see the handwriting clearly, the bright red fingerprints on it can make people easily recognize that it is the written evidence written by the two of them in the next afternoon!
When Shen Xin saw this, her heart trembled. Could it be that she still wanted to threaten to take back the porcelain pillow?

"That poem is not of much use to you, why do you hold on to it?" She was also anxious and spoke quickly.

"That's not the case. My porcelain pillow is not a rare treasure. Don't you think there are few things more precious than it in the Changfang? Don't you still want to have it.

"That poem is the same for me. I just like it, and it is worth a thousand gold in my heart. If my sister takes it away, she has to return the porcelain pillow to me."

Shen Xi was unhurried, no different from chattering about homework.

The pearl shells under the curtain felt terrified when they saw this!

Only now did they finally understand what she was doing. It turned out that she had dug a big hole to lure Shen Xin into it!

The pit was dug in such a way that no mountain or water was exposed, they didn't even notice it, they just thought that their girl was messed up again and gave away the only treasure in her hands!

When did she become so powerful?

Shen Xin also gritted her teeth because of this sentence, as expected, she actually had this in mind!
In her eyes, that poem is just a piece of paper with writing on it, what use can it be?How dare you mess around and beg for a porcelain pillow!
How could she return the pillow she took back with great difficulty?
"If you say that, then I have to change it."

She put away her smile, squinted at Shen Xi and said: "We have agreed on this document, whoever goes back on his word will have to pay the other party 500 taels of silver.

"We didn't write this poem in the receipt, but you asked me for a porcelain pillow. This is considered a breach of contract."

"You're right. But if you didn't ask me for the poem, how could I possibly ask you for a china pillow?"

Shen Xi looked at her with a sneer, and then said, "Why don't you ask me for the poem, so the porcelain pillow is still yours, and the poem is still mine, so we can get what we want, wouldn't it be nice?"

Shen Xin was choked for half a day and couldn't catch her breath!

She didn't expect this fool to be so eloquent!
Didn't she let the foolish her give up the porcelain pillow with just a few words?How did she become so assertive in a blink of an eye, and even know how to bargain with her?

These words can force her to say anything else!
