A car accident, our family of three crossed

Zhou Ru laughed dryly twice and said, "Then I would like to thank Sister Rong first."

He didn't say whether to lend or not to lend, and he didn't say when to lend.

Zhou Rong waited for a long time, and seeing that Zhou Ru didn't say anything, she continued, "How about this, after breakfast, I'll go back to the house to get it and send it to Sister Ru! I'm really worried that you won't be able to find my yard. After all, the Marquis' Mansion is much larger than the yard you live in in the small county town. You don't live in the Marquis' Mansion often, so it's easy to get lost."

In one sentence, it sounded like he was showing great concern, but in fact, he was openly and covertly belittling Zhou Ru's background.

Zhou Ru couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth. No matter how dumb she was, she could still hear the condescending hint.

This was all thanks to Cao Qianyu, who gave her a lot of experience, so she was quite sensitive in this regard. "I won't bother Sister Rong. When I want to read the storybook, I will go to Sister Rong to borrow it."

Zhou Rong opened her mouth but said nothing. Zhou Ru was so rude that she couldn't continue. If she said anything more, it would seem like she was asking for trouble.

At this time, Zhou Yan, the second daughter of the Marquis's family, who was sitting next to Zhou Rong, said, "I heard that the theater is going to stage the play "The Gourd Story"! It's already selling out."

The second daughter of the Marquis's mansion is two years younger than Zhou Ru, and is at the most innocent age. She is sweet-mouthed and usually acts coquettishly to please others. At this moment, she acted coquettishly towards the old lady, "Grandma, let's go to the Marquis's mansion and book a table! Yan'er wants to watch it, and Sister Ru is back from the small county town, so we can take Sister Ru to see the world."

Zhou Ru was speechless. Although this girl was sweet-talking, she was not likable at all.

These two people all take pleasure in belittling her, but she doesn't get angry. She won't argue with these clowns.

The old lady was so obsessed with her favorite granddaughter that she thought that when the time came, their Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion would be the first group of people to watch the show, which would be a way to gain face.

"Okay, okay, I'll do as you say." She then looked at Zhou Ru and said, "Sister Ru, you don't understand the rules of the capital. When you go out, you must learn from your sister Rong and the others. Don't embarrass our mansion."

"I understand, grandma." Zhou Ru agreed obediently, but she was rolling her eyes in her heart.

What do you mean she doesn't understand the rules? They are afraid that she will lose face for the Marquis' Mansion when she goes out. In her opinion, as long as she is right, she is not afraid of others using the rules to make trouble.

I have to say that the Cheng'en Marquis Mansion is actually a small temple with many rules.

After breakfast, the old lady sent a servant to book an elegant seat in the theater, which cost her a lot of money, which made her feel very distressed.

Zhou Rong, still upset about Zhou Ru's rudeness, finally took the book "The Gourd Story" and called Zhou Yan to go to Zhou Ru's yard. "Sister Ru, I just wanted to come over and sit with you, so I brought the book to you."

"In that case, thank you very much, Sister Rong. Please sit down!" Zhou Ru really didn't want to deal with this pair of hypocritical sisters, but one should not hit someone who smiles at you. What's more, she is a respectable lady in this mansion.

Seeing that she took the storybook but didn't rush to read it, Zhou Rong asked, "Sister Ru, don't you want to take a look at the storybook first? Take a look, it's very interesting."

"I want to wait and see. It's rare for Sister Rong and Sister Yan to come to my yard. How can I ignore you?"

"We are all sisters, why are you being so polite to us?"

Zhou Ru was quite confused. Why did they insist on her reading this storybook? Could it be that they just wanted to show that they were more knowledgeable than her?

It was just a short storybook, what on earth were they so proud of? If she told them that she had not only read The Gourd Story a long time ago, but she also knew who the author of The Gourd Story was, she wondered what they would think.

Although she complained in her heart, Zhou Ru still symbolically opened the book "The Gourd" and started reading. Since the sisters wanted to show her the book, she just read it.

Even though she has seen it countless times, she still finds it fascinating every time she watches it.

This sight showed that she had really ignored the two sisters, somewhat intentionally, as she didn't really want to pay attention to them anyway.

For a moment, silence fell among the three of them. No one spoke, and there was only the sound of pages turning.

The younger Zhou Yan was the first to lose her temper and said, "Sister Ru, how is it? Doesn't it look good? Isn't it interesting?"

"Yes! It's really interesting." Zhou Ru watched with great interest and told the truth.

"Only Wanjuan Bookstore sells it in the capital. No other bookstores sell it." Zhou Yan raised her head, as if she was talking about something very remarkable. "I heard that Wanjuan Bookstore is the largest bookstore in the entire Dongli Kingdom, and it is not only in the capital, but also in many prefectures. Sister Ru, your small county should not have it, right?"

Zhou Ru smiled, closed the storybook, and said, "Sister Yan'er, Pingyang County is actually quite good, otherwise we wouldn't have settled there, and my father wouldn't have opened Jubao Pavilion there."

Zhou Yan was choked, paused, and then said: "How good can that small county town be? No matter how good it is, can it compare to the capital?"

"Sister Yan'er, you're joking. Of course it can't compare with the capital." But it's not as poor as you think.

"That's it." Zhou Yan won the verbal battle, feeling both proud and disdainful.

Zhou Ru was unwilling to continue the meaningless argument with her. Speaking of which, Tanzhou Prefecture was considered to be a relatively wealthy prefecture in Dongli Country, far more prosperous than they had imagined.

Noble ladies in the capital like Zhou Rong and Zhou Yan might stay in the capital for the rest of their lives.

He has never been out of the capital and has never seen what the world is like outside, but he feels good about himself and thinks that people from small places are ignorant, which is really a joke.

When Zhou Ru was little, after being taken in by her father, she traveled around with him a lot in the first few years.

Even though she was spoiled by her father and brother, and had not suffered too much and was not very cunning, when it came to knowledge, she was not comparable to these self-satisfied frogs in the well.

Zhou Rong listened to their conversation without saying anything until Zhou Ru mentioned Jubao Pavilion. Then she had the chance to join in the conversation, "Sister Ru, I heard that the new jewelry released by Jubao Pavilion recently was all painted by a mysterious painter. Have you seen this painter?"

"Never seen it." Zhou Ru lied subconsciously.

She remembered that Song Ning had instructed that the painter's identity must not be revealed to outsiders. As Song Ning's good sister, she naturally had to abide by it.

Although she can be a bit reckless with her mouth sometimes, she is still able to keep secrets that need to be kept.

For example, the mysterious painter of Jubao Pavilion is Song Ning, and the author of "The Gourd" is the little boy Yangyang, but she would never tell anyone about these.

Besides, if she dared to reveal it to others, her father would have to pay a large sum of liquidated damages and the contract would be invalidated. What a loss!
