Chapter 8
"Yes, my second brother helped me, I'll buy him a gift."
Nan Baoyi spoke and looked at her calmly.
Nan Yan, who was well-educated and well-educated in her previous life, was just a thirteen-year-old girl and could not be able to treat people calmly. Seeing her blushing face, she knew that she was very embarrassed now.
Her eyes fell on the inkstone again.
She couldn't tell whether the inkstone was good or bad, she only knew that this thing was very expensive.
Expensive things will definitely not be bad.
She took out a thousand taels of silver notes from her purse and "wrapped it for me."
Nan Yan watched her buy the inkstone she liked, and her heart was bleeding, but she couldn't even say a word.
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "The serious and legitimate lady is different from the outer girl. Look at this generous move... Who doesn't know that our Baoyanzhai never bargained, and can't afford to buy it and wants to bargain. What's the difference between those petty market women in the vegetable market? As the saying goes, dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the mouse's son can dig holes, which is right!"
He looked down on Nan Yan.
Nan Yan's mother, Liu, is famous in Jinguan City. When Mrs. Nan said she would not allow her to enter the door, and gave her a large sum of money to ask her to walk far away. She collected the money and promised it well. She turned around and wanted to serve as an outdoor room for Master Nansan. Even when Master Nansan got married, she ran to the gate of Nanman to commit suicide!
To put it nicely, love is stronger than gold, but to put it badly, that is, it is just a shameless person!
Nan Yan's face turned red with a pig's liver, and she was about to fall with tears in her eyes. She looked at Nan Baoyi pitifully and innocently, as if she was counting on her to say a few words for herself.
Nan Baoyi sneered, and Nan Yan even thought she was the good sister in her previous life.
She asked Heye to take the wrapped inkstone and said politely: "Sister, I'll go there if I have something to do."
Nan Yan subconsciously followed her out of Baoyanzhai and watched her hold the maid's hand and get onto the carriage.
The carriage is spacious and luxurious, with gold-woven red glass lanterns hanging on all corners. Even the hanging curtains and curtains are embroidered with exquisite patterns, so it will be comfortable to sit down.
She was frustrated and pulled the handkerchief into a wrinkle.
The personal maid was resentful of her, "They are all the master's daughters. Why can Nan Baoyi ride in such a good carriage and buy such expensive inkstones without blinking, but the lady lives a tight life?! It's really unfair!"
"Who told me that he was a serious legitimate person..."
"So what if you are born?" The maid was regretful and angry, "I heard that the Nan family is not familiar with literature and writing, so the lady is different from the young master. She is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the young master's grades in the academy are among the best. She is obviously the best among the juniors, but she can't even enter the mansion... If the lady can live in Nanfu, she will have been with the old lady for a long time, and the old lady will definitely like you!"
Nan Yan's expression changed.
Yes, it would be great if I could move into Nanfu...
Her eyes suddenly lit up. Anyway, her mother would marry her father next month, so what's wrong with her moving into the Southern Mansion early?
Her depressed mood swept away, and she said happily: "Let's go see Dad!"
She returned to the small courtyard of Qingqiao Hutong, and her mother went to the silk shop to buy clothes, and her father sat in the yard for tea.
"Dad." She bowed her knees and saluted in a serene manner.
"Yan'er is back?" Nan Guang smiled, "How about it, have you bought the gift you like for your brother?"
Nan Yan paused and thought to himself that you only gave fifty taels of silver, what good things can you buy?
She came forward obediently, "I bought my brother a wolf-haired pen with a green tube, and a box of fragrant ink. The remaining money, I bought my father the walnut crisps you like, which is from Fuweizhai."
"Yan'er can still think of being a father when she buys gifts for her brother. It's really touching to be a father! Come on, let's eat together."
Nan Yan sat down beside him and said in a gentle voice: "Dad, my daughter met Baoyi when she was on the street today. We had a great time talking to each other. She liked my sister very much."
"You sisters get along well, and you are happy for your father!"
"Just..." Nan Yan wanted to speak but stopped.
"Just what?"
Nan Yan looked worried, "Dad, Baoyi spent a thousand taels of silver without blinking today. I know that my grandmother loves her and gives her a lot of pocket money, but this is too much of a waste... I have no identity and it is hard to persuade me. If I can be her sister with justification, I can persuade her to be simple and frugal, and think more about my father."
One thousand taels of silver!
Nan Guang gasped!
God is pitiful. Since my mother learned that he had raised an outdoor room, she refused to let him squander his family property.
He could only get only 200 taels of silver from the public bank every month, drink some flower wine with his friends, and there was only a few times left in the teahouse, and even his life was tight with Xiao Meng and Yan'er.
As a father, he couldn't even afford a thousand taels of silver. Nan Baoyi was so generous!
"Nothing!" He slapped at the stone table with angina pectoris, "I have told your grandmother that every little girl can't have so much money on her body. Your grandmother just disobeyed and kept stuffing silver to her with your uncle! One thousand taels, that's one thousand taels of snow-patterned silver!"
It's enough for him to be at the Flower Building for a long time!
Nan Yan added tea to him, "If Yan'er had so much money, she would definitely use it to be filial to her father and grandmother, and would never squander it."
"You are a good person." Nan Guang touched her head with emotion, "Jiaojiao was spoiled by your grandmother, and there was a lack of someone to beat and scold her. In this way, your mother will pass by next month. You can pack up your things and move them into the house in advance, so you can help me take care of Jiaojiao."
"Isn't this good?" Nan Yan raised his timid almond eyes, "Grandmother doesn't like Yan'er, so she definitely doesn't want to prepare a living yard for Yan'er..."
"You just live in Jinyi Pavilion and live with Jiaojiao, so that you can discipline her." Nan Guang said earnestly, "That girl is naughty and spoiled in the mansion again. I will trouble you, my sister in the future."
"Dad don't worry, I will definitely discipline her."
Nan Yan bowed obediently and showed off her blessings, and her face was full of success when she lowered her head.
As long as she lives in Nanfu with justification, she can go to the old woman to behave well and please. In the future, she will have a share of Nan Baoyi's things, and maybe she can get the rewards from her elders, which is not better than living outside?
On the other side.
Nan Baoyi returned to Jinyi Pavilion and looked at it with the inkstone.
Heye's face was full of pain, "It's just a stone that was concave, but it actually costs 1,000 taels of silver... Girl, did you think Baoyanzhai's boss deliberately cheat us?"
"The things in the study are very expensive."
Nan Baoyi carefully put away the inkstone and ordered: "Take out all my precious jewelry and I will calculate the price."
