Chapter 218 The eldest lady from a scholarly family is not inferior to the social butterfly 3
"Make a friend, or if you really don't trust me, then I will give you the money to help me do things. Tell me all the news in the ballroom, important or not."
Hong Fei fell into silence again, and finally took the money and put the money bag into his thick collar.
He muttered: "But no one will have trouble with money."
This is agreed.
"Next time I come, I will bring a gift." Nan Qian smiled gently, arranged for Qiu Xia, the maid next to her, to take a carriage, and then said goodbye to Hong Fei.
Hong Fei's mood was very complicated. It was clear that she was the one who had been in a quarrel with each other not long ago, but in the end, they immediately made peace with each other, and she even entrusted herself to do things.
…Don’t mention it, what she gave was much more generous than those in the ballroom.
…………
"...Miss, why did you give that woman money and ask her for information about the dance hall... Oh! I see, you want to inquire about Master He, right?" She suddenly realized.
"Then there's no need to ask that woman..." She then muttered softly.
She didn't have a good impression of this woman. She had just said that to the lady, but the lady had given her money to do things.
Nan Qian comforted Qiu Xia and said, "It is better to do less than to do more. Peace is the most important thing, and it is better not to cause too many troubles with others."
"But...well, Miss, you are right..."
She hesitated for a moment and then said: "Miss, why don't you also learn those theories? You are so good-looking. If you lose those benevolent teachings and etiquette, you will definitely be more popular than that Qi Qiqi."
"Oh, no, no, miss, just be yourself and don't follow the trend. Just think what I just said is nonsense."
It can be seen from both words that Qiu Xia is really thinking about her young lady.
"It's okay, I know you want me good, and what you said makes sense."
Qiu Xia became anxious: "Miss, I am sincere. I...Although many people admire Qi Qiqi's ideas, when I look at her, I still feel that something is wrong. Miss, please don't imitate her, just be yourself." .”
Nan Qian smiled and nodded, indicating that she had definitely listened.
…………
In this era, it is rare to see horse-drawn carriages, and most of them are pulled by humans.
From horse-drawn carts to human-drawn carts, should this be said to be the progress of the times?
Maybe, they need to eat.
Nan Qian got out of the car and as soon as she walked into the hall of her mansion, she heard Nan's father's angry voice coming from inside.
"What did you say!? If you do this, have you ever considered Qian Qian?"
"...She will understand that we are both right. The mistake is that our concepts are not consistent."
"Uncle, it's a new era now. You should also understand that we are no longer suitable to be together. If we force ourselves to be together, I will only wrong Qianqian."
"We are already as different as clouds and mud."
"you!"
It seems that she just happened to meet the original owner's original fiancé, Mr. He, who was breaking off the engagement.
"I think what you said makes sense." Nan Qian walked in slowly and met Master He's shocked and guilty eyes.
Claiming to be a scholar of the new era, he felt that he was not wrong and wanted to use his almost unreasonable theory to convince the two old people when Nan Qian was not around.
Unexpectedly, the rightful owner came back, and now he felt guilty.
However, he didn't expect Nan Qian to agree with what he said, so he immediately suppressed any trace of guilt and became more confident when facing Nan's father and mother.
"Uncle, you see, even Qian Qian agrees with me. You'd better not be too rigid and learn more about these new things."
Nan's mother looked at Nan Qian in disbelief: "Qianqian, do you... really think so?"
"Yes, I am Yun Duo, and he is not just clay. It is inappropriate to be together like this. The gap is too big. Fortunately, Master He is self-aware." Nan Qian nodded.
Before Master He could speak, Nan Qian turned to face him and said sincerely: "Congratulations, you can boldly pursue your free love. Is it that dancer named...Qi Qiqi? I heard that she was raped by many people If you like it, come on."
"Father, please take out that token quickly. Don't delay Master He's pursuit of love."
Master He's face turned green. Nan Qian spoke too quickly. He didn't even have time to refute who Nan Qian's words were referring to.
Nan's father was very angry at first, but when he heard his daughter criticizing the other party like this, most of his anger disappeared.
Since my daughter doesn't care about this person anymore, let's break off the engagement, but... I can't just let him go if I make my daughter a laughing stock.
"Hmph, go and get it." Nan's father looked worried and asked his servants to get his token.
Nan's mother walked to Nan Qian, her eyes full of heartache.
Nan Qian patted her mother's hand reassuringly, indicating that she was fine, and then turned to Master He. He was in a daze. He probably didn't expect to successfully break off the engagement so easily and without paying any price.
The price still has to be paid.
"So, Master He, since you have come to break off the engagement, you must have brought a token of our family, right?"
"That's natural..." Master He took out his pocket confidently, then realized something and froze for a moment.
Nan Qian knew that she did it on purpose.
Master He's family is just an ordinary family. Before the new era, he was just a scholar and his family had a small business. He married the original owner and was called Gao Pan.
And now relying on the Nan family, although the He family is not as good as the Nan family, it can still be considered powerful.
What do people who suddenly have money do?
Of course it’s a big purchase.
The heroine Qi Qiqi attracted many rich and noble people to go to that ballroom, which naturally became a high-consumption place, not to mention that Qi Qiqi, as a top socialite, was worth a lot.
In order to get along with Qi Qiqi, Master He's wallet is not very safe.
Once when Qi Qiqi coaxed him into spending impulsively, Master He didn't have enough money to ask Qi Qiqi to accompany him this time, and his family would not give him any more money in a short time.
So the most valuable thing left on his body was the token of engagement with the original owner that he often wore.
A jade ring of excellent quality can be used by the Nan family as a keepsake of their only daughter's engagement, so its value is self-evident.
He was extremely hesitant at first, but Qi Qiqi saw him and took the initiative to greet him at the door.
After learning the whole story, he persuaded him to use the jade ring as a mortgage first and redeem it next time he brought enough money.
When he thought about it, it was right. It would be nice to redeem it next time, so he mortgaged the jade ring.
But he couldn't afford the money he originally consumed, and he couldn't even wait for the next month to save some money. How could he bring enough money to redeem the jade ring?
Every time I come here, I always think: Next time, don’t worry, I’ll use the money first and redeem it next time.
Until now.
So... that token is not on Master He's body at this time, and it can even be said that it does not belong to him.
He couldn't take it out.
