Traveling through time and space

Chapter 14: Unknown Hostility

"Really? Our Yuanyuan has such a talent. Grandma really likes that meat floss. When Yuanyuan is free, make some more for Grandma so she can give it away. Grandma can't eat all the dried meat. But anything that can be sold for silver is good. Wanqing, let Shaowu accompany Yuanyuan to take a look. Maybe he can even help with the family business."

"Grandma, you're joking. Shaowu is the eldest brother. He should accompany Yuanyuan for a walk. Grandma, your granddaughter-in-law will take her leave first," the eldest sister-in-law took her people and took their leave first.

"Brother, didn't you tell sister-in-law everything about my identity and those things?" Cai Yuanyuan, who was sitting in the car, asked her brother seriously.

"We are a close couple, so of course we have to tell her."

"Brother, are you kidding Yuanyuan?" Cai Yuanyuan asked with a smile.

"What would you do if Big Brother told you?"

"Brother, Yuanyuan knows that you didn't tell your sister-in-law. I hope you can keep your mouth shut about this."

"Yuanyuan, don't you like your sister-in-law?"

"Of course I like her. Sister-in-law is not Yuanyuan's biological sister-in-law, but brother is Yuanyuan's biological brother."

"What will you do if Big Brother really leaks this out?"

"Killing people to silence them, that's easy."

"I really didn't expect that a little girl would talk about fighting and killing all the time. Don't worry, I will never break my promise to you. If you are worried, you can keep those things for yourself, but remember, you must not let outsiders get them."

"To be honest, Yuanyuan just said that Big Brother is my real big brother, but Big Sister-in-law is not my real sister-in-law. So, Yuanyuan will not hold back on Big Brother, but will on Big Sister-in-law. Yuanyuan has no roots in the Cai Mansion, and Yuanyuan does not want to be an enemy to anyone. But if someone wants to harm Yuanyuan, Yuanyuan will not sit idly by and wait for death."

"You're acting so strangely, but what did your sister-in-law tell you?"

"No, brother, why would you think that? Yuanyuan is just feeling a little emotional, and is just reminding you again that that person is not suitable for your life at the moment. I don't have such thoughts, but if others knew about it, they would have other thoughts, and it might even put Yuanyuan's life in danger."

"Don't worry, Big Brother won't break his promise to you."

"Okay, Yuanyuan, I'm going to make a bold prediction. When we go out today, we're going to run into someone we know."

"Who did you meet?"

"Sister Wenjing, Sister Xiuya, maybe there will be other sisters."

"Okay, let's get off the car. I'll show you around." Cai Yuanyuan got off the car and put on the veil she had worn before. "Do you still want to wear the veil?"

"Wear it. I want to wear it until Yuanyuan comes up with a solution."

"Miss, you must be very tired. Do you want to find a teahouse to rest for a while?" Mother Yan hurried forward.

"Mom Yan, I'm fine. I'm not that delicate." Cai Yuanyuan smiled. There was a street in front of her. Cai Yuanyuan observed carefully to see what was there and what was not.

"Miss, buy a rattle," Cai Yuanyuan saw a small stall, walked up to it, picked up something to play with, and unexpectedly saw a rattle, picked it up and played with it.

"Brother, do you want to buy one for my nephew?" Cai Yuanyuan felt that a one-year-old child should be able to play with this.

"Sister Yuanyuan, how can you let your eldest brother's child play with such vulgar things? Brother Peng will never play with these things." Sure enough, the acquaintances arrived. There were three female masters, judging by their attire, and they were followed by servants.

"Cousin Jing, how can she afford to buy nice things? She's still alive because she's relying on the Cai Mansion for support." The girl looked at Cai Yuanyuan with disdain, "Her clothes were only made after she entered the mansion."

"Sisters, what are you talking about? Since Miss Yuanyuan has entered the Cai Mansion, she is our sister."

"Miss, this is Miss Wenjing, this is cousin Miss Xiuya, and this is Miss Ziqiao from the third room." Mother Yan stepped forward and introduced the girls. This was the one she was talking about.

"Yuanyuan, you should call these three sisters." The eldest brother introduced them.

"Brother, what a coincidence! My sister Ziqiao and I came here to choose our dowry, and we didn't expect to run into you by such a coincidence," the woman came forward and took my brother's arm, looking like my brother's biological sister. "Sister Yuanyuan, why do you always wear a veil?"

"She's too ugly. I don't know what your grandmother was thinking. Why would she accept such an ugly girl as her granddaughter?" Someone was dissatisfied.

Cai Yuanyuan wanted to lose her temper, but after thinking about it, she held back. "Yuanyuan has met the three sisters. Yuanyuan is a country girl, so she doesn't have much money to buy toys for the eldest brother's children. But have you sisters ever heard a saying, don't hit people in the face, and don't expose people's shortcomings when scolding them? The three sisters are here in public, saying how ugly Yuanyuan is. Have you ever thought that you are ruining the reputation of the Cai family? Grandmother has already said that Yuanyuan will be a proper lady of the Cai family in the future. You keep saying bad things about Yuanyuan. I'm sure people will say, why are proper ladies of the Cai family divided into different classes? Yuanyuan always wears a veil because she is really too ugly. Mother Yan, Yuanyuan likes this, buy one."

"Yes, miss, is there anything else you would like?"

"Buy this first. Big brother, do you want to go shopping with the three sisters, or do you want to go shopping with Yuanyuan? Yuanyuan can't go with the three sisters. The three sisters are going to choose their dowries. If an ugly girl like Yuanyuan goes with them, it will be unlucky and bring bad luck. It will also affect the mood of the three sisters. So, Yuanyuan will not go to the one that makes her uncomfortable."

"Brother, I am your biological sister, and you are the brother who is sending her off to marry. Would you please come with us to choose the dowry?" This was a threatening gesture.

"Miss, I've bought it."

"Thank you, Mommy Yan. Please keep it and play with it when you get home. Let's go." Cai Yuanyuan ignored them, including her eldest brother.

"Yuanyuan, I came out with you, so of course we have to go together. You guys..." The eldest brother shook his head and followed Cai Yuanyuan. "Yuanyuan, are you angry?"

"No, there's nothing to be angry about. These young ladies just have some tempers. Let's continue watching." In fact, Cai Yuanyuan was very angry, her eyes were red, but she held back her tears. The Long March had just begun, so what was there to be sad about? They walked around, ate and looked around, and saw a teahouse. "Brother, I'm thirsty and want to drink a cup of tea." The eldest brother nodded, and the group entered a teahouse called Yayi Teahouse. As soon as they sat down, the waiter called by the eldest brother wanted to order tea.

"Brother, Sister Yuanyuan, you are here too. We are tired of watching and want to rest." It turned out that the three of them had arrived again. "Sister Yuanyuan, do you mind sitting together?"

"Sister Wenjing, of course I don't mind. It's my eldest brother who's treating us." Cai Yuanyuan looked at her eldest brother and then looked towards the stage with interest. It turned out that someone was telling a story.

"Yuanyuan, let's go to the second floor. The seats here are too crowded."

"Okay, big brothers and sisters, you go up first. Yuanyuan wants to listen to their storytelling up close."

"Okay, cousin, let's go up. I'm afraid this is also the first time for Yuanyuan to listen to a storyteller."

"Yes, cousin, Yuanyuan is a country girl who came to the city. It's her first time to listen to storytelling and she finds it very interesting." Cai Yuanyuan replied with a smile.

They all went up, and the people who followed Cai Yuanyuan were still there. "Miss, I'm sorry to have wronged you." Mother Yan was also a little unhappy.

"It's okay. I just don't want to argue with them." A middle-aged man was on the stage, telling a story that was probably about love. After observing the crowd, he saw that few people were listening seriously. They were all chatting with their friends. "Mother Yan, why is no one listening to the storytelling on the stage?"

"What's so interesting about this? It's all about the young lady from the Zhang family who fell in love with the young man from the Li family, but the young man had no interest in the young lady from the Zhang family at all, and the young lady ended up drowning herself."

"That's too vulgar. No wonder no one wants to listen. Mother Yan, did you bring any money?" Mother Yan nodded. "Well, you three must be tired. Have some tea. I'll go upstairs." To be honest, Cai Yuanyuan didn't want to see them at all. She was only referring to the three women. "Brother, my three sisters," she went upstairs and saw them sitting at a table. Cai Yuanyuan went upstairs. The brother pointed to the seat next to him, and Cai Yuanyuan sat down directly. "Brother, I'm hungry. Please treat me to something delicious."

"Okay, have a cup of tea first." The eldest brother personally poured a cup of tea in front of Cai Yuanyuan.

"Thank you, big brother." She lifted her veil and drank the tea. "This tea is good, with a rich aroma."

"You..." The eldest brother was about to say something, but was interrupted by the cousin.

"Of course this tea is good. This pot costs twenty taels of silver. But why don't you take off your veil while drinking tea?"

"So it's so expensive, no wonder. Hmm, the fragrance is also very long-lasting. I didn't take off the veil because Yuanyuan is really ugly, and I was afraid of scaring the three sisters. Are the three sisters going to get married? What do you think of the dowry today?"

"Let's take a look first. Once we choose a suitable one, we'll ask mother to arrange it. Sister Xiu Ya is not getting married. She is here to accompany us and take a look." Cai Wenjing replied.

"That's really a misunderstanding. Yuanyuan thought that her three sisters were choosing dowries for her." Cai Yuanyuan seemed to have noticed something. This cousin kept looking at her eldest brother inadvertently.

"You guys have finished your business, so go home early after having tea. Yuanyuan, go eat, and then go for a walk after dinner."

"Brother, take us to dinner and then go back after dinner." Cai Ziqiao acted coquettishly.

"No, you are all going to get married, so you should go back home quickly." The eldest brother refused.

"Then how can she?" Zheng Xiuya pointed at Cai Yuanyuan.

"Yuanyuan is still a child and doesn't need to get married, so she can play outside for a while longer." Cai Yuanyuan replied. "Brother, let's go. Yuanyuan is in a good mood now and feels like she can eat a cow."

The two of them went downstairs. Cai Yuanyuan looked back and saw that the three people hadn't caught up with them. "Brother will take you to our restaurant."

"Brother, the Cai family also has a restaurant?"

"Yes, the Cai family's Lanfeng Restaurant may not be among the top five in the capital, but it can be among the top ten."

"Brother, are you so confident?"

"I was quite confident, but after eating the dishes you cooked these days, I've already asked someone to buy some more ingredients and want to take you to the Lanfeng Restaurant to have a look."

"Brother, so you have an intention. Let's go. We can't get rid of Yuanyuan." After getting on the carriage, not long after, Cai Yuanyuan kept lifting the curtain to look out.

"Miss, what are you looking at again and again?" Mother Yan finally couldn't help asking.

"I'm afraid those three girls will follow me." When I sat back down, I saw my eldest brother laughing. "Brother, what are you laughing at?"

"You don't like them?"

"Of course, but Yuanyuan has seen one thing clearly. That cousin must have some intentions towards Big Brother."

"You're just a little kid, what do you know?"

"Brother, Yuanyuan is a little younger, but she's not stupid. The way that cousin looked at you was so tender, it almost made me wet. Don't tell me you can't feel it."

"Young Master, we're here." Zheng Bo, who was driving the coach, shouted.
