Chapter 79 Not from the same world
Chunfeng Tea House has always been famous for its elegance and tranquility.
Most of the people drinking tea are the rich and famous in the city. Unlike the noisy atmosphere in other teahouses, this place is quite quiet.
The vast majority of people come here to really enjoy tea. Even if they have something to talk about, they will not make a loud noise but speak softly.
But the silence was quickly broken by a burst of women's whining.
Luo Xin, the maid in green skirt, is Bai Lingshuang's personal maid. It can be said that she has grown up with the eldest lady of the Bai family since she was a child, and thinks that she and the lady are like brothers.
After Bai Lingshuang's talent became a sensation, she ascended to heaven, followed the young lady, and became a practitioner.
Because of this relationship, she doesn't even pay much attention to the old housekeeper in the house and the leader of the nursing home, let alone others.
In short, Luo Xin is Bai Lingshuang's closest and most loyal maid, and can also be said to be the person who understands the lady's thoughts best.
Sometimes Bai Lingshuang doesn't say anything about something, but after she understands what she means, she will actively handle it for her young lady.
It's just that over time, she will inevitably have the illusion that she is the messenger of her own lady, or even one of the masters of the White House.
This time, when she heard about Ji Que, she suddenly became very angry.
It was because she was quite unhappy with this young scholar who had fallen out of the sky.
She believed that there were not many talented people in the entire Northland who were worthy of her young lady. It was an insult to her to be engaged to such an ordinary person.
Especially after hearing the scholar's somewhat absurd demands in the White House, I became even more convinced of his greed.
In her eyes, what Ji Que did was just to get a chance to fulfill the engagement.
This is simply a toad that wants to eat swan meat and wants to go crazy, and doesn't even try to see if he can take it.
Likewise, she is also jealous of Ji Que's good luck.
A scholar who was ordinary except for his good looks was able to get four thousand taels of silver in one go despite being rejected by the lady.
With four thousand taels, even in Tianren City, one can live comfortably for a lifetime.
In addition, she could clearly feel the young lady's contempt and disdain for this marriage contract, so with the purpose of sharing the worries of her master, who was sympathetic to her sisters, and to vent her anger for herself, she bought these one hundred sesame seed cakes.
Even if the bank note is given out, this guy can't hold it so comfortably.
But who would have thought that this sesame seed cake, which was originally meant to ridicule people, was now poured into her mouth and throat.
"Didn't your lady teach you what it means to be polite?"
"After I am considered a benefactor of the White House, I traveled thousands of miles to visit the house in person. I think I am reasonable and polite. Is it my turn to be mocked by someone like you?"
At this time, the maid in the green skirt was being fed with her head pressed down, and tears were about to burst out of her eyes.
She had bought these sesame cakes for several days. Some of them were smelly and some were as hard as rocks.
But it was this kind of sesame cake that always stuck in her throat endlessly, making it difficult for her to breathe and almost suffocating.
This feeling was very uncomfortable, terribly uncomfortable, but the biscuits still showed no intention of stopping, which made her feel like she was worse off than dead.
She wanted to beg for mercy, even knelt down to beg for mercy, but found that she didn't even have a chance to speak out.
As soon as he made a sound, he would start to cough and choke so terribly that pieces of sesame seed cake would spray out from his nose, and tears would flow from his eyes.
With a snap, Ji Que forcibly kneaded a large and hard piece of sesame seed cake into the other person's mouth and said, "If this is what you mean, I'll reason with you for free. If it's what your lady means, please
Tell her that if something bad happens to me one day, I don’t mind feeding her cakes myself.”
"Go away!"
With a snap, Ji Que raised his hand and slapped the other person, causing him to stagger and exit the door.
And he wiped his hands, picked up the teacup, and took a sip of tea.
Luo Xin bent over and spat out the residue all over the floor.
Her mind was stretched to a blank, and a ray of murderous intent emerged in her heart, and then she saw many people looking at her outside the door.
Among them, one or two are even familiar faces in this city.
She knew she couldn't stay too long, otherwise she might embarrass her young lady, so she immediately covered her mouth and stumbled away.
After the maid ran away, everyone's eyes turned to Ji Que who came out later.
Some people even respect it.
The whining voice of the woman just now was quite strange. She came out later with disheveled clothes, messy hair, vomiting, and even a slight bulge in her belly.
This can only be said that today’s young people know how to play and dare to play, but they actually come to a place like this!
Ji Que walked out of Chunfeng Tower calmly. Before leaving, he drank up the pot of bitter tea that should be relatively expensive.
He is very good at regulating his emotions and rarely gets angry unless he can't help it.
But today, he really couldn't hold it back.
However, feeding people cakes was indeed a very enjoyable and stress-relieving thing, and he couldn't help but feel happy again.
At least the ending is good.
From the fact that the other party covered his face with tears and ran away, it can be seen that his kind reasoning method is quite effective and will be used more in the future.
The engagement that had always been on his mind was finally terminated, and he received a compensation of four thousand taels of silver.
He deserves these four thousand taels, and he has a clear conscience.
In fact, he was quite able to accept Bai Lingshuang's solution, which was at least much easier than Madam Bai's foresight and hesitation, and was very consistent with the young man's vigorous and resolute style.
It's a pity that the maid is an idiot.
If Bai Lingshuang has similar thoughts, then she is also a fool!
After all, it is a good thing to have a clear relationship with the idiot.
At least he had the money on hand to complete his exclusive weapon.
The maid Luo Xin ran away in despair and vomited wildly in a corner for a while before she coughed away the terrible suffocation feeling.
Her throat was burning and sore, she must have been scratched.
She really couldn't understand how she could be so embarrassed by a scholar.
She couldn't help but wonder: "That person named Ji has also practiced cultivation?"
No, that's not the case.
Another more reasonable explanation quickly emerged in Luo Xin's mind.
That means she was attacked by a sneak attack and was unlucky!
The first sesame seed cake caught her off guard and blocked her trachea. From then on, she couldn't breathe and became confused, like a person who suddenly choked on water in a lake.
, I don’t know how to deal with it calmly.
Suddenly, she couldn't help but feel even more embarrassed and depressed, and even had a faint urge to rush back for revenge.
"If it hadn't been for the sneak attack, I could have punched him to the point where he was on his knees looking for teeth!"
Yes, after following the young lady for so long, Luo Xin, although her qualifications are average, is still a practitioner of the second realm of Qi collection.
At this moment, she saw a familiar black carriage slowly stopping in front of her.
Lady's carriage?
Luo Xin quickly passed by in fear and got on the carriage.
Bai Lingshuang sat in the car, still as cold as an iceberg, and said, "Is it done?"
"It's done." Luo Xin quickly took out the sesame seeds and the engagement letter and replied.
"Did he say anything?"
Luo Xin quickly shook her head guiltily and said, "No."
A cold smile appeared at the corner of Bai Lingshuang's mouth, and she murmured: "Then he still has some self-awareness."
Immediately, she looked at the corner of her maid's mouth, frowned and said, "Have you eaten sesame cakes?"
Luo Xin suppressed her nausea and replied respectfully: "Yes, Miss, we have sesame cakes for lunch."
At this time, her body suddenly tensed up and she looked towards the roadside.
On the roadside, a young scholar was walking by calmly with a wooden box under his arm.
Bai Lingshuang said coldly: "That's him, right?"
Luo Xin was shocked and said: "Yes."
Bai Lingshuang said: "Okay, it's time for us to set off."
The carriage moved slowly, and Bai Lingshuang looked at her former engagement partner with a cold look on her face.
This was the first time she saw him, but it was probably the last time.
They are not from the same world.
At this time, Ji Que also looked at the carriage.
On the carriage was a young woman with skin as white as snow, who seemed to be looking at him.
He didn't see the other person's face clearly because the bead curtain on the car window had been drawn down, blocking his sight.
Ji Que didn't look any further, humming a little tune and walking towards home.
Apart from meeting an idiot, I was generally happy today.
