After I traveled through the book, I fought back in the Hou Mansion

When Luo Shuiyao heard this, she immediately became interested. From what Lu Zhaozhao said, it seemed like he was going to give her something.

Her expression changed from the coldness just now, and a bright smile instantly appeared on her face. She said, "Yes! Sister Zhao, you come from a famous family, so I guess you have a lot of jewelry. I wonder if you want to give me some jewelry as a gift?"

Lu Zhaozhao's expression froze, as if she didn't expect that there would be someone so shameless and ask for things so naturally.

She looked at Luo Shuiyao blankly, and after a while she said, "Yes, my sister saw that you were dressed so poorly, so she asked the maid to prepare some gold and silver jewelry and clothes for you. I guess you don't have many clothes."

Luo Shuiyao tilted her head and looked at Lu Zhaozhao. She blinked her eyes pretending to be innocent and said, "Sister, you are so considerate. I don't have any gold or silver jewelry, clothes, or silk. How much are you going to give me?"

Lu Zhaozhao: “…?”

Lu Zhaozhao gritted her teeth again, cursing inwardly, but her expression remained as gentle as ever. "Hongying, Hongguo, bring the things up."

Hongying and Hongguo behind her, one holding a box and the other holding a large cloth bag, walked forward and placed them in front of Luo Shuiyao.

Luo Shuiyao looked at it curiously and asked, "Are they all for me?"

Lu Zhaozhao nodded slightly, a hint of pride in her eyes. "I thought that even if I gave you the best material, you wouldn't have enough time to make it, so I brought you a dress I made earlier. It's a bit big, and I haven't worn it many times, so try it on to see if it fits."

Her tone was gentle, as if she really cared about Luo Shuiyao, but the slightly upturned corners of her mouth revealed her inner calculations.

Luo Shuiyao looked at the clothes and box before her, secretly speculating about Lu Zhaozhao's intentions. She knew, of course, that Lu Zhaozhao didn't really want to help her; there must be some conspiracy. But she wasn't afraid. She wanted to see what Lu Zhaozhao was up to.

Luo Shuiyao's smile became even brighter, as if she had no ulterior motives. "Thank you, Sister Zhao. I'll open it and take a look."

After saying that, without waiting for Lu Zhaozhao to reply, she opened the box directly. She was a country girl, so why should a country girl care about etiquette?

Her movements were quick and decisive, without the slightest hesitation. The moment she opened the box, Luo Shuiyao's eyes lit up. Inside was a box full of jewelry, gleaming with golden light.

Luo Shuiyao picked up a piece of jewelry and looked at it carefully, with uncontrollable surprise in her eyes. Every piece of jewelry in this box was heavy and gorgeous. Even if you don't look at its fine workmanship, a lot of gold can be melted out of the pure raw materials alone.

She weighed it in her hand, an expression of joy that was hard to conceal appeared on her face. She was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.

Most Chinese people love gold, and although she is not old, she is no exception.

Lu Zhaozhao carefully observed Luo Shuiyao's expression and saw that she didn't look fake, and her eyes revealed undisguised contempt. She raised her chin slightly, and her contempt for Luo Shuiyao intensified.

Soon, she concealed her expression and opened the bundle herself.

Inside the bundle was a pink dress made of Yunjin, and judging by its style, it was also very fine. Yunjin was several times more valuable than Shujin, and it was not easily available to ordinary people. It was often in short supply, and once it was put on the market, it was snatched up by the ladies of various families.

Luo Shuiyao looked at the brocade dress with a flicker of amazement, but it was only for a moment. After all, in modern society, there are countless ancient Chinese costumes that are more beautiful than this one. Although the workmanship and materials are certainly not comparable, it is not unattainable.

Luo Shuiyao looked up at Lu Zhaozhao, her eyes filled with gratitude. She was truly grateful at this moment. She had never thought that someone would be so foolish as to give such precious gold and silver jewelry to their opponent.

Oh my god! Can there be more good people like this?

Lu Zhaozhao was very pleased with the look given by Luo Shuiyao.

She then untied a jade pendant from her waist and placed it on top of her dress, saying with a sigh, "This dress was originally made to match this jade pendant, but I never expected it to be ill-fitting. What a waste of such fine brocade."

At this point, she paused for a moment, as if realizing she had said something wrong. "But it's not a waste. I'd be happy to give it to you, my sister. I'll also give you this jade pendant. On the day of the welcoming banquet, you must wear this dress and these jewels. With your beauty, you will definitely be the most dazzling one in the room."

Luo Shuiyao's eyes darkened, and she understood a lot in an instant.

She said that when she read the original novel, the text described the female supporting character as wearing gold, silver, red and green, which was very arrogant. At that time, she even scolded the author for not being rigorous enough, wondering how a country girl could have so many gold, silver, jewelry and clothes.

So that’s how it is…!

Lu Zhaozhao's mother was a noblewoman, and her father was the son of an aristocratic family. Although her parents died young, the elders in the family did not covet her mother's dowry or her father's share.

The article only mentioned that when Lu Zhaozhao's mother was dying, she begged the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery to take her daughter away, but it did not explain why the Lu family allowed their daughter to live with someone else.

But this is not important. What is important is that she knows that Lu Zhaozhao is extremely wealthy. It would be a waste not to take advantage of this opportunity. She will find a chance to take more advantage of him in the future.

Luo Shuiyao was thinking in her heart, but she still had a grateful smile on her face. She stepped forward and held Lu Zhaozhao's hand, "Sister Zhao, wuwuwu, you are so kind! You are the first person in the world who is so kind to me."

She thought to herself: Yes! You are the first person who gave me so much gold, silver and treasures, how could you treat me badly?

As she thought about it, her face was filled with emotion, tears welling up in her eyes, as if she was really touched by Lu Zhaozhao's kindness.

Lu Zhaozhao felt a little disgusted and wanted to pull her hand out of Luo Shuiyao's hand. She tried her best but failed, so she gave up.

She took Luo Shuiyao's hand and said, "Sister Yao, listen to me. You are still young and have no elders to teach you. You don't know that the most important thing for us girls is to marry into a good family. What's the point of marrying? It's just to have enough food and money. You must not marry someone from a bad family. You must find someone from a prominent family, even if it means being a concubine."

There was a hint of superiority in her tone, as if she was giving alms to Luo Shuiyao.

Luo Shuiyao sneered in her heart. She wondered why the original owner only wanted to be a concubine of a wealthy family. It turns out that the root of the problem lies with you.

She showed a confused expression on her face and asked, "Sister Zhao, why do you want to be a concubine? Isn't being the main wife good enough?"

Lu Zhaozhao frowned slightly and patiently explained, "Sister, you don't understand. The position of wife is not so easy to obtain. With your background, being a concubine is already a great blessing. Anyway, as long as you can be favored, your future life will not be bad."

"Could it be that you're still thinking of going back to marry a peasant in the future?"
