Chapter 131 Wang Xingren is Blackmailed
The next day, Zhang Dahua spent half a day in the workshop again and tasted the braised pork, which tasted almost the same as Zhang Hulan's.
Zhang Dahua said goodbye to Wang Xingren, "Master Wang, there's nothing else to do here. I'll be back to Changning County tomorrow."
"So urgent?" Wang Xingren said, "Miss Zhang rarely comes to the capital, and she hasn't even explored the city yet. So, Miss Zhang, stay a few more days, and I'll take her on a good tour of the capital."
Zhang Dahua said hurriedly, "No, no, Mr. Wang has his own things to do, so I won't waste his time. I can just walk around the capital by myself this afternoon."
Now that he has come to Beijing, Zhang Dahua must want to have a good time strolling around the city, as he probably won’t have the chance to come back in the future.
She also had to buy some gifts. She was staying at the Wu Mansion for the next two days, so she would definitely visit the host family when she left.
"It's okay, I'm not busy. The servants are taking care of the workshop, so I don't have to worry about it."
Zhang Dahua didn't want Wang Xingren to follow her. Firstly, it would make her uncomfortable, and secondly, it would cause her trouble. She wasn't stupid, and she could tell that Miss Li must have a crush on Wang Xingren, which was why she had such a strong opinion of her.
Wang Xingren was about to say something when a servant came over and said, "Master, the old lady asked you to come home for lunch."
Wang Xingren asked, "Is anyone coming home?"
The servant replied, "It's my aunt and my cousin."
Well, Wang Xingren didn't want to go back at all. Maybe his aunt came because of what happened yesterday.
But since his grandmother asked him to go back for dinner, Wang Xingren had to go back because he had to observe filial piety.
Zhang Dahua was relieved, as Wang Xingren didn't have to follow her this afternoon. Otherwise, if Wang Xingren insisted on shopping with her, she wouldn't be able to refuse.
Wang Xingren returned to the Marquis' Mansion. Zhang Dahua, Dong Jianyong and Tian Qi had a quick bite to eat outside, and then went wandering around the capital.
Tian Qi has been following for the past two days. Ye Hongyun has instructed that when Tian Qi comes back, he will mainly serve Zhang Dahua.
……
Marquis Jing'an's Mansion.
As soon as Wang Xingren returned, Wang Xiaorong walked over with a smile, took Wang Xingren's hand and said, "Xingren is back! Come here quickly. Auntie saw a very beautiful black fox cloak yesterday and thought it would look great on Xingren, so she bought it. Come and try it on."
Li He immediately came forward holding the cloak and said sweetly, "Cousin, I'll put it on you."
Wang Xingren waved his hand and said, "Aunt, I don't like these things. I always wear capes and so on."
Wang Xingren didn't let Li He put the cloak on her. Li He held up the cloak, looking a little embarrassed.
Madam Yang said, "Xingren, this is something your aunt bought specially for you. Try it first."
Wang Xingren said, "Grandma, I think the color of this cloak suits Xingyao better. It will definitely look better on Xingyao. Besides, Xingyao is a bit weaker, so it will be more suitable for him."
Wang Xingyao, who had just returned from school, had just stepped into the door when he immediately retracted his foot and turned away.
Wang Xingren hurriedly shouted, "Xingyao, where are you going? Come in quickly..."
It would have been better if Wang Xingren didn't shout. As soon as he shouted, Wang Xingyao walked faster.
"Grandma, please wait. I'll go get Xingyao back now."
Without waiting for Madam Yang to speak, Wang Xingren ran out.
Li He's eyes began to tear up again, with tears welling up in her eyes.
Madam Yang said, "Don't cry, He'er. I'll ask Xingren to put it on you later."
Wang Xingren caught up with Wang Xingyao and said with a grin, "Xingyao, why are you running?"
Wang Xingyao glared at Wang Xingren, "Brother, you're always like this. You push things you don't like onto me."
Wang Xingren put his arm around Wang Xingyao's shoulders, acting like a good brother. "Hey, just help me block it!"
Wang Xingyao extended his hand toward Wang Xingren, "Wang Xingren placed a five-liang ingot of silver on Wang Xingyao's palm."
Wang Xingyao put the silver into his arms and then stretched out his hand.
Wang Xingren looked at Wang Xingyao and asked, "What?"
Wang Xingyao said, "Not enough."
Wang Xingren took a deep breath and asked, "How much do you want?"
"Fifty taels."
Wang Xingren glared at Wang Xingyao, "Don't go too far..."
Wang Xingyao curled his lips and said, "You are not short of silver now. If you are short of fifty taels, forget it. I will never be your shield again."
"Do you threaten me?"
Wang Xingyao nodded, "Yes, I am threatening you."
Wang Xingren gritted his teeth, but still slapped a fifty-liang silver note into Wang Xingyao's hand.
Wang Xingyao happily put the banknote away, then said regretfully, "Alas, it seems I'm still too kind. Next time I should ask for a hundred taels..."
Wang Xingren looked at Wang Xingyao expressionlessly, thinking that he should stay at home as little as possible in the future to avoid being robbed by this kid.
Wang Xingren brought Wang Xingyao back to the main hall. Wang Xingyao immediately walked up to Li He and snatched the cloak from her hand. He looked left and right, as if he liked it very much.
"Auntie, can you give me this cloak? I like this cloak."
"This..." Wang Xiaorong and Li He were both a little confused.
My nephew has asked for it, how can I not give it to him?
Madam Yang said, "Xingyao, this was bought by your aunt for your brother. Why are you joining in the fun?"
"Oh, Grandma, I really like this cloak. Just ask Auntie to buy another one for my brother."
Wang Xingyao suddenly returned the cloak to Li He with a look of reluctance, "Oh, forget it, my aunt bought it for my brother.
Auntie, tell me where to buy this cape, and I'll go buy it myself."
Wang Xiaorong immediately said, "It's okay, it's okay. If Xingyao likes it, take it. I'll buy another one for Xingren later if I see one that's suitable."
Wang Xiaorong put the cloak on Wang Xingyao and praised him, "Well, Xingyao looks really good in this cloak."
Wang Xingyao said happily: "Thank you, Auntie, you are so kind!"
Wang Xingren's mouth twitched. This bastard had extorted fifty taels from him... no, fifty-five taels, and now he had gotten a valuable fur cloak for free. No matter how he looked at this guy, he felt unhappy about everything and wanted to drag him out and beat him up.
The servant came up and said, "Old Marquis, Old Madam, dinner is ready."
Madam Yang said, "Let's go, let's go eat first. After dinner, Xingyao still has to go to the academy."
On the way to the dining room, Ye Hongling whispered a few words in Wang Xingren's ear, and Wang Xingren's eyes widened.
He glanced at Wang Xiaorong and Li He inconspicuously, then walked towards the dining room together in silence.
Sitting down to eat, Wang Xingren kept observing Old Madam Yang.
Old Madam Yang would pick up some food for Li He from time to time, and would often look back and forth between herself and Li He.
The old man didn't eat much. After eating a few, he put down his chopsticks and watched Wang Xingren and the others eat.
When everyone finished eating and were about to put down their bowls and chopsticks, Wang Xingren suddenly cried out, then covered his stomach and said, "Oh, why does my stomach suddenly hurt? No, I have to see a doctor..."
