378 Almost Scammed
“Why are you here?” Song Jiayue frowned unhappily.
She was only a concubine. No matter how much she was doted on, she could not leave the residence easily. In the past, she could still go back to her parents’ house to visit the two elders.
However, her parents were angered to death by her. Her maternal family was gone.
No, she had almost forgotten. As a concubine, she had no family to speak of.
The maidservants around her knew that she hated everything in Xiagou Village and never dared to mention it in front of her. Therefore, she did not know about the imperial edict at all.!!
Shen Yijia and the other two looked up at the enchanting woman standing at the entrance of the reception pavilion. Then, they retracted their gazes and looked at each other.
Who was this?
They didn’t recognize her.
Then there was no need to pay attention to her.
The two children continued to eat the pastries seriously.
The pastries from the Liu family were the best Shen Yijia had ever eaten. They were sweet but not greasy, and melted in her mouth.
She wondered if Liu Jinbao would agree to exchange a chicken for three plates of pastries.
There was actually not much on this plate. There were only three pieces on each plate, and there were five people in their family.
Each person could not even get two pieces.
Shen Yijia was thinking about how to exchange a few chickens for a few plates of pastries to feed the few of them in the family.
She didn’t even look at Song Jiayue again.
As for the two younger ones, their sister-in-law was around. What did it have to do with them?
Song Jiayue didn’t expect this person to ignore her in her territory. She was so angry that she tightened her grip on her handkerchief.
However, she also knew that Shen Yijia was a blunt person and did not dare to fight her head-on.
She glanced at the three people in the reception pavilion. They only knew how to eat like hungry ghosts. Looking at their clothes, she did not hide the disdain in her eyes.
“No matter what, you’ve been in the capital before. Why do you look like you’ve never eaten good food?” Song Jiayue covered her nose with a handkerchief and said sarcastically.
Apparently, this person recognized them.
Shen Yijia stuffed the last pastry into her mouth and looked up at Song Jiayue. She said seriously, “I don’t know about anything else, but this is the first time I’ve eaten this pastry. Do you have more?”
Song Jiayue sneered. She held the maidservant’s hand and sashayed into the reception pavilion. She said proudly, “Do you think our Liu family is as poor as you? Of course we have more.”
As she spoke, she glanced at the three empty plates and her disdain deepened.
However, when her gaze swept across the pastries Brother Hao was nibbling on, she stopped in her tracks and almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
The pastry was called Dragon Whiskers Crisp. Because the workmanship was complicated and the ingredients were exquisite, only Liu Jinbao could eat it at will in the entire Liu family.
Even the other masters might not be able to eat it, let alone her.
People were always like this. The more they couldn’t get something, the more they wanted it. In the past, she only dared to think about it.
For some reason, her obsession with this snack had become stronger over the past two days, as if she had gone crazy.
Last night, she served her master happily and asked for it.
The Old Master agreed readily. Unexpectedly, she did not see him even after waiting for so long, so she personally brought the maidservant to the kitchen to make pastries.
When she passed by the reception pavilion, she found the person sitting inside familiar from afar.
In the end, when she saw the people she hated the most, these people even ate the snacks she had been thinking about for so long.
Shen Yijia did not know why the expression of the person who was like a winning rooster suddenly changed, but she did not care.
Instead, she said politely, “That’s great. Please get someone to serve a few more plates, the kind we just ate.”
What was served for them belonged to them. When the time came, she would keep a few plates and bring them home.
She didn’t even have to trade chickens for these pastries.
Although this person did not look likable and spoke harshly, she was still quite generous.
Then she would forgive her offense.
Song Jiayue was so angry that she lost her voice. She had to pinch the maidservant beside her to calm herself down. She screamed with a twisted face, “How dare you? Who let you in? Guards, beat them up!”
“Let’s see who dares!” Liu Jinbao pulled in an old man in his fifties, his face red with anger.
Shen Yijia raised her eyebrows and rubbed Sister Huan’s head, preparing to watch the show.
Song Jiayue was shocked. She dared to deliberately annoy Old Madam Liu in the Liu family, but she did not dare to offend Liu Jinbao.
Could these people have been invited by Liu Jinbao? That’s right, she heard that the brats from the Song family were classmates with Liu Jinbao.
She knew that it was because Liu Jinbao had been beaten up. In order to make her happy, the maidservant had specially told her.
After all, as long as it involved Liu Jinbao, no matter how much she doted on Old Master Liu, he would not side with her.
These thoughts flashed through her mind in less than a second.
She looked at Old Master Liu with a pale face. As expected, the latter was looking at her unhappily because of her grandson.
“Master, I…” Song Jiayue was about to explain when she suddenly held her stomach and cried out in pain, “My stomach hurts. Master, I…”
Shen Yijia was stunned. This scammer was so skilled that she acted like it was real. Fortunately, she sat still from the beginning to the end. Otherwise, she would have been blamed.
Indeed, life was full of traps.
Song Jiayue’s entire body was pressed against the maidservant. In just a short while, her forehead was already covered in cold sweat, and her face was frighteningly pale.
No matter what, Liu Jinbao was still a child. He was shocked by Song Jiayue’s appearance and turned to look at Old Master Liu helplessly.
On the other hand, after Old Master Liu handed over the family business to his son, he stayed in the back residence all day and was used to seeing his women fight.
He did not expect Concubine Song, who usually looked gentle, to be so unreasonable. Not only did she scare his good grandson, but she also embarrassed herself in front of his esteemed guest.
However, he could not let her lose all her face because of this. He had to cooperate and get someone to call the doctor.
After Song Jiayue was taken away by a few old women, he patted Liu Jinbao’s head comfortingly.
She turned to look at Shen Yijia and the other two with a smile. “This must be Madam Song. Jin Bao told me that he wanted to buy all your chickens.”
Shen Yijia was polite to polite people. She stood up and said, “That’s great. I brought twenty four hens and four roosters this time.”
“If you want all of them, I’ll give you a cheaper price. A hen costs 500 copper coins each, and a rooster costs 300 copper coins.” she thought.
“A total of…”
Shen Yijia scratched her head, regretting not calculating before.
“Thirteen taels of silver,” Liu Jinbao replied. He had been influenced since he was young. He was not good at other things, but he could understand calculations easily.
Although it was a little more expensive than he had guessed, it made no difference to him.
Shen Yijia said, “Yes, it’s 13 taels of silver. Jin Bao is so smart. On account that the children of the two families are classmates, just 13 taels of silver will do.”
