The book has no strength, the female supporting role just wants to survive
Chapter 25 Jasmine Hairpin
Jiang Tunan and Luo Yunqing went out of the door, and neither of them spoke on the way. When Jiang Tunan went out, he understood why Luo Yunqing gave up the piano so easily.
Leng Qingyan's words just now were clearly threatening Luo Yunqing with Princess Guangping.
"Xiao Nan, do you think I'm useless?"
Luo Yunqing suddenly spoke, and Jiang Tunan quickly answered,
"No, no, Sister Yun Qing, don't think too much."
Luo Yunqing forced a smile.
"You don't need to comfort me. I just live a miserable life."
Wanxin watched with great pain.
"Young Madam..."
Luo Yunqing shook his head towards Wan Xin.
"I haven't played the qin for a long time, but I remember that my previous qin skills were so good that even my teacher was ashamed of himself. I don't know when it started, but I've stopped living like myself."
Jiang Tunan didn't know how to answer, but Luo Yunqing continued to speak.
"I'm not afraid, I just don't want to cause trouble to Ayue. People say that I gave birth to a freak, and these comments have caused a lot of trouble for my husband and the Xiao family. I even thought about strangling Xiaobao to death, but Ayue never gave up.
I want to live up to my husband's painstaking efforts. No matter how others say I am an ominous person or how they look down on me, I don't care."
Jiang Tunan could understand. After all, in this technologically backward society, people would always filter things they didn't understand with ghosts and gods.
"Have you ever regretted marrying your cousin?"
"Never."
Luo Yunqing raised his head to look at the sky, as if he was lost in some memories.
"I remember the first time I met Ayue, my mother introduced him to me. He was a quarter of an hour late that day. His white clothes were all muddy, and he looked very embarrassed. Later he said that it was because he met bandits on the road and had a fight with them.
I didn't think he was rude at the time, but I thought he was a straightforward person. Later, I heard that Princess Tu Shuang was very close to him, so although I had a good impression of him, I still consciously kept my distance from him.
It was not until he expressed his feelings to me that I realized he liked me, too."
Luo Yunqing turned her head and looked at Jiang Tunan, tears glistening in her eyes.
"You know, we almost broke up. At that time, Princess Guangping had someone secretly capture me to threaten Ayue. In order to save my life, Ayue had no choice but to agree to Princess Guangping's request."
"What then?"
"Later, it was Princess Tu Shuang who stopped everything. In fact, on the day of the engagement, I saw Princess Tu Shuang outside the restaurant. She was wearing a veil, but I knew it was her. At the time, out of selfishness, I did not tell A Yue, but hurriedly pulled A Yue away. Unexpectedly, that was the last time I saw her."
Luo Yunqing was very sad and lowered his head.
"I still feel guilty to this day. I didn't know she was so seriously ill. I was just afraid that she would change her mind and take Ayue away. Now I think about how ridiculous I am.
I know that the rumors I am suffering now are all what I deserve. I am not an upright person. "
Jiang Tunan sighed heavily.
"Sister Yun Qing, don't blame yourself too much. I believe that if Princess Tu Shuang wanted to see Cousin Ming Yue, you couldn't stop her, so she might not have wanted to meet Cousin Ming Yue at that time."
Luo Yunqing sobbed softly, wiping her tears with a handkerchief from time to time. Jiang Tunan didn't know how to comfort her.
"Sister Yun Qing, I know it would be irresponsible of me to tell you not to care about what others think. But I want to say that the reason you care so much about what others think is because you take life too seriously. There is nothing wrong with that."
Luo Yun nodded slightly and smiled.
"Thank you, Xiaonan. I really appreciate your understanding."
Jiang Tunan held Luo Yunqing's hand tightly.
"Sister Yun Qing, every time I feel unhappy or stressed, I go shopping. Although I don't have much money now, it feels really good to spend money myself."
"I've never heard anything like that."
"Now you've heard it, let's go and spend the day exploring it!"
Luo Yunqing smiled sincerely.
"it is good!"
Jiang Tunan and Luo Yunqing chatted and laughed as they came to Qishefang. According to Luo Yunqing, Qishefang was the most famous shop in the whole Daxing, with stores in all states and counties, specializing in selling jewelry and rouge and powder.
When Jiang Tunan walked to the door, he felt that Qishefang was just like its name, gorgeous and luxurious. The plaque of Qishefang seemed to be shining with golden light in the sun. Could it be made of gold?
"Miss, what are you looking at? Why don't you go in?"
Chunhua saw Jiang Tunan standing at the door motionless, so she reminded Jiang Tunan,
"I wonder if there is really gold on this plaque. Maybe if we just cut off some of it, there will be a lot of money."
Jiang Tunan originally thought that he had fifteen taels of silver in his pocket, but it turned out to be not enough here. The task of making money was long and arduous.
"Forget it, let's go in."
Jiang Tunan covered his heart, saying that he was very hurt and would die if he looked at other people's wealth any longer.
She couldn't even imagine what a sunny and cheerful girl she would be if she had so much money.
"Xiao Nan, come and take a look at this white jade hairpin. I think it suits you very well."
Jiang Tunan quickly quickened his pace and carefully examined the white jade hairpin, which was indeed exquisitely crafted.
Luo Yunqing gestured above Jiang Tunan's head and nodded with satisfaction.
"How much is this hairpin?"
The guy next to him answered softly,
"This white jade hairpin with gold-painted cloud pattern costs 50 taels of silver."
Duo... Duo Shao? !
Fifty taels? !
Jiang Tunan was so shocked that she took a few steps back. Her fifteen taels were not enough, absolutely not enough.
Is this the consumption level of rich people? I thought it was Mrs. Xiao who gave me a huge sum of money, but it turned out to be a tip. (bitter smile)
"It's a little expensive, but if Xiaonan likes it, then..."
"Wait, I don't like it."
Jiang Tunan extended his hand to the man who was about to wrap up the white jade hairpin.
"Sister Yun Qing, let's take another look. Does this hairpin make me look a little old?"
The main reason was that Jiang Tunan was a little unconfident about her financial resources. If Luo Yunqing hadn't been with her today, she might not have dared to pass by the entrance of Qishefang.
Luo Yunqing had no doubts and gestured to the waiter.
"Then look again."
Having said that, Jiang Tunan either said that the hairpin that Luo Yunqing chose later was ugly or unsuitable.
"Isn't there any hairpin among these that you like?"
Luo Yunqing also found it strange, Jiang Tunan was not usually such a picky person.
Jiang Tunan knew that she had to choose one today, otherwise Luo Yunqing would not give up easily. Suddenly, she saw a hairpin out of the corner of her eye.
The body of the hairpin was made of silver, and the tail was made of a few pieces of white jade to look like jasmine petals. Although it was a bit plain, it suited Jiang Tunan's aesthetic taste very well.
"How much is this one, please?"
The fellow answered with a folded hand.
"Miss, you are too polite. This hairpin is only fifteen taels."
Jiang Tunan was speechless. What did she mean by only fifteen taels? This was all her belongings, okay?
"If you can give me a cheaper price, I really want it. I will buy it from you next time I come to Qishefang. How about 12 taels?"
The clerk had a bitter face and complained in his heart, saying that most people who come to Qishefang are wealthy, so why would they bargain?
"Oh, girl, this is the lowest price, I really can't give you any less. You see, the flowers on this hairpin are made of top-quality jade. It's just that this white jade was originally a complete piece, but later it was broken into pieces, so I sold it at a low price."
Jiang Tunan didn't know how to appreciate jade, but looking at the clerk's expression, it seemed that the money was indeed indispensable, and she really liked the hairpin.
"Xiao Nan, this hairpin is a bit plain, and the jade on it is all broken jade. If you like flower hairpins, there are some over there. Let's take a look."
Luo Yunqing advised that this jasmine hairpin was indeed a little simple. Jiang Tunan still insisted on having this hairpin, so Luo Yunqing had to follow Jiang Tunan's lead. Just as Wanxin was about to pay the bill, Jiang Tunan stopped Wanxin and said,
"Sister Yun Qing, I'll buy it myself. Madam gave me some money today."
Jiang Tunan motioned Chunhua to take out the silver and quickly stuffed fifteen taels of silver into the clerk's hand.
"Girl, didn't you agree that I would take you there?"
Luo Yunqing was a little unhappy, Jiang Tunan took Luo Yunqing's arm and coaxed her softly,
"Sister Yun Qing, please buy it for me next time. I also want to try the feeling of spending money today. Thank you, Sister Yun Qing~"
Luo Yunqing was helpless. Everyone thought that Jiang Tunan was ordinary, but in fact, she was very smart and had her own ideas. She would not be confined to a small house in the future.
