The old lady is reborn
Chapter 16 New Clothes with Ulterior Motives
Rong Ruomei, the sister-in-law who borrowed the carriage from the Nan'an Marquis' Mansion, finally came to return the carriage.
However, when he came to return the carriage, he came to Song Ying's yard uninvited.
After arriving, she blamed her sister-in-law Song Ying for not giving up her carriage as soon as possible for her grandson to take the imperial examination, which caused her, the aunt, to be implicated for no reason and to be talked about and scolded on the streets.
Rong Ruomei said: "What does this have to do with me? I have already borrowed those two carriages. It is not a temporary loan that day.
This matter was handled wrongly by your family. If the housekeepers and wives of the younger generation are not capable, you can hire a few more housekeepers to help.
Don't blame your relatives when something goes wrong. After all, it's your sister-in-law who doesn't manage the household properly and you're occupying the carriage."
Song Ying looked at her sister-in-law, who was still so unreasonable at her age. Ever since she married into the Nan'an Marquis' Mansion, this sister-in-law always treated her courtyard as her own.
When he sees something good, no matter if it's food, toys, or clothes, he just opens his mouth and reaches out to take it.
Because the generation of Nan'an Marquis Rong Ruozhi was just the two of them, brother and sister, Rong Ruozhi always told her to be more tolerant, because her sister was young, ignorant, and spoiled. She really liked him at that time and wanted to live a good life.
In order to reduce disputes and frictions, I always give in. Now looking back, there is no one in this world who will never grow up or never be sensible. It's just that they think they can take advantage by being ignorant.
It was obvious that she had occupied the two carriages of the Marquis' Mansion and borrowed them for a long time without returning them. If it weren't for the huge discussions on the streets this time, it would have been unknown when these two carriages would be returned to the Marquis of Nan'an Mansion. The monthly wages of the two coachmen were still paid by the Marquis of Nan'an Mansion.
She did such a shameless thing, but she had the nerve to walk straight into Song Ying's yard and put all the blame on her as soon as she opened her mouth.
Song Ying glanced at Rong Ruomei and replied coldly, "I am the old lady of this mansion, and the carriage is mine. So in order to ensure that you have two carriages, I, my son, and my grandson should share two carriages? In the end, the fault is still ours?"
Now that you are here, you have borrowed these two carriages for seven months. The monthly wages for the two drivers have always been paid by the Nan'an Marquis' Mansion. Please pay the money."
Rong Ruomei said, "Sister-in-law, are you confused? You want to settle such a small account with me? You also want me to pay for the monthly wages of two drivers?"
Song Ying said: "Didn't you use it for these seven months? If you use it, shouldn't you pay for it?
If you go to a carriage shop and ask how much money it would cost to rent two such carriages with a driver for seven months,
Since we are relatives, I will give you this carriage for free. Why do you want me to pay for it?"
Rong Ruomei was surprised to hear her sister-in-law's words. When she saw Song Ying's dress, her eyes lit up. She changed the subject and stared at the flowing cloud hairpin on Song Ying's head and said, "Sister-in-law, your hairpin is really beautiful. Look at my goose yellow and willow green dress. Doesn't it match this hairpin perfectly?
You can give it to me. If you are reluctant to part with it, you can lend it to me for two days."
Song Ying said: "At your age now, goose yellow over willow green is not suitable for you. If you really want to wear it, goose yellow is goose yellow, and willow green is willow green.
Your appearance can't hold back too many colors, and it's hard to see you as a person."
Rong Ruomei felt very uncomfortable. Since she was a young girl, Song Ying had always been more beautiful than her. But she also had her own advantages. She was always a few years younger than Song Ying.
But it took almost a lifetime for Rong Ruomei to realize that Song Ying, who was prettier than her, was still prettier than her even though she was a few years older than her.
Rong Ruomei said, "According to sister-in-law's opinion, I am not worthy of wearing yellow and green, but what about sister-in-law's pale pink and white?"
In fact, the pink is very light, the base color is almost invisible, and it looks like a slightly mauve white, but the embroidered petals are deep and light, and some petals are indeed pink.
Song Ying did not answer and stood up. Wu Er and Shisan put a black gauze jacket with dark gold thread on Song Ying.
It turns out that this coat and the inner dress are a perfect set. Each of the pink and white flowers inside blooms in the gold frame of the outer gauze, creating a strange three-dimensional effect after the petals are outlined.
Every time Song Ying moved, every flower seemed to come alive, and seemed to be slowly opening when viewed from different angles.
Upon closer inspection, the inner lining faintly visible under the black gauze dress is actually a slightly more floral pattern embellished on the hem of the skirt.
There are just some floating petals on the upper body, and a flower with branches wrapped around the waist. From the waist down, the petals and flowers gradually increase until they bloom at the hem.
Song Ying said, "I'm going out now. Do you still want to stay here with me?"
Rong Ruomei wanted to refuse to leave. She had been busy all along, worrying about countless things, and when her sister-in-law was about to go out, she would always say, "Sit for a while before leaving."
She rummaged through Song Ying's jewelry box before leaving. The maid didn't dare to stop her, and when her sister-in-law came back and found out, she just let it go most of the time.
Gradually it became a habit, jewelry, cosmetics, dresses... Today my sister-in-law is wearing such exquisite clothes, I'm afraid there are more nice clothes in the closet...
But now hearing Song Ying's unfriendly tone, it seemed that she had to leave. She came here empty-handed this time and did not gain any benefit. Rong Ruomei had no choice but to pick up a can of tea on the table.
What can we do? When people are poor, they have low aspirations.
When I got married, my husband's family was fine, but it has been getting worse and worse over the past few decades, and such good tea is no longer available for me to drink.
Song Ying pretended not to see it. After she left the house, she asked Wu Er and Shisan, who were guarding the door at home, to make a bill for the carriage expenses, the coachman's monthly salary, and the money for the can of tea, and send it to the housekeeper's daughter-in-law Wu Siyu, asking her to take the bill to her sister-in-law's family to ask for money.
If she can't get the money, or doesn't want to ask for it, the cost will be paid from her personal account.
Furthermore, my sister-in-law can no longer come to our house to borrow things for free, nor can she borrow the maids, carriages, and labor of the wives. From now on, whoever lends out the things will use their private account, and the public will not pay for it.
After giving the instructions, Song Ying went out. She wore this outfit today specifically to show off the fabric, embroidery and design, in order to win the order for military uniforms.
Tian Anran was beaten with forty sticks and had to lie in bed for more than three months before he recovered and was able to get out of bed.
Song Ying has not been idle for a single day in these three months.
In the previous life, the He family silk shop was thriving. Not long after, the shopkeeper He passed away, and the He family silk shop was taken over by Tian Anran.
At that time, her silk shop was the most popular in Kyoto, so it was natural for her to take over the business of military uniforms and shoes.
Now Song Ying would never allow Tian Anran and He's Silk Shop to have this opportunity. Although it seemed that He's Silk Shop had lost its reputation and Tian Anran had become a slave, since Rong Ruozhi was helping her and had the Sixth Prince behind her, there was no guarantee that she would have a chance to turn things around.
There was no way Song Ying would let Tian Anran turn over again. In her previous life, her limbs were chopped off with an axe by Tian Anran when she was conscious.
Song Ying let out a breath, got on the carriage, and wanted to be the first to get the military clothing and uniforms business.
