Chapter 219: For Qiao Ping'er, she decided to sell out her husband
Ping'er, as her name suggests, has a gentle temperament, works in an orderly manner, and is good at handling complex interpersonal relationships, so she is deeply respected by everyone.
Her ability and thoughtfulness not only made Qin Keqing jealous, but even Li Wan envied Wang Xifeng for having such a capable assistant.
Most importantly, the two have been together since they were very young and are almost inseparable.
They are master and servant in name, but they are like sisters in love!
Wang Xifeng hesitated for a moment, then decided to refuse, and even started to scold and laugh, saying that Qin Keqing had bad intentions today and was using treasures to seduce her.
Qin Keqing refused to give up. She turned her back to Wang Xifeng and pitifully begged Cao Rui, who had transformed into asparagus fern, to show some magical powers so as to completely move Wang Xifeng's heart.
Cao Rui was speechless. She was actually going to betray her husband for a maid?
The leaves are shaking, refusing to obey!
"You are alive. You sneak away at night when Sister Feng is not paying attention. Let her be greedy."
"No, I won't be a profiteer."
Qin Keqing had no choice but to promise with a blushing face to accompany Cao Rui to fly to the sky once.
Cao Rui was immediately moved, and he threw away all his principles, with all the leaves in his body nodding.
Qin Keqing spat secretly, turned to look at Wang Xifeng, and said:
"Sister Feng, do you know that this Wenzhu is extraordinary? He...he can predict the future and guide destiny!"
Wang Xifeng heard this and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, which soon turned into suspicion:
"Oh? Is there really such a magical thing in this world?"
Ping'er, Ping'er, you are really so annoying that Qin Keqing can even say such nonsense.
Qin Keqing smiled slightly and whispered to Wenzhu that when she was in the illusory world of Taixu, she had secretly seen the comments of the Department of Misfortune. Although they were only a few words, they were enough to scare people.
however.
Cao Rui already knew the fate of the Twelve Golden Hairpins in the Red Mansion and did not need Qin Keqing to remind him. He swayed his bamboo body and performed an enchanting sacrificial dance.
"This, this, this..."
The sight of the potted plants moving without wind left Wang Xifeng stunned. After she came to her senses a little, she crawled under the table to check and even picked up the pot.
I haven't seen any thin wires or anything like that that can control the asparagus fern.
Wang Xifeng was completely subdued, her lips trembling as she begged for blessings from all the gods.
Soon, fresh jingles appeared on the leaves:
[Phoenix is smart, holds great power, and is too clever to scheme;
Seeking wealth and honor is in vain, and a sickbed will not last long. 】
When Wang Xifeng saw this, her heart skipped a beat and she reached out to touch the words gently, as if she wanted to scrub them off.
The words dissipated under her fingertips, only to reappear on another leaf, as if playing with her.
"This... this Wenzhu, can it really predict my fate?"
Wang Xifeng's tone was full of disbelief. She didn't want to accept it, and was very resistant to this future that seemed like she would die early from illness.
Qin Keqing sighed, feeling that the jingle Cao Rui had made up on the spur of the moment really described Wang Xifeng's life.
Wang Xifeng stood there with a gloomy face, her eyes fixed on the asparagus fern. The jingle on the leaves seemed like a spell, tightly entwined in her heart.
Finally, she gritted her teeth and made up her mind:
"I'll change!"
Qin Keqing was overjoyed, but she did not show it. Instead, she said with a serious face:
"Feng Jie'er, you have to think carefully. This thing has a very important origin. I can't protect it or keep it."
"Even if it's you, you may not be able to keep her. Don't come crying and asking for Ping'er when you lose her."
Wang Xifeng deeply agreed with this. If outsiders knew about such a treasure, they would definitely try to seize it, and might even resort to some despicable means.
Fortunately, she has made preparations for both scenarios. It would be best if she can keep the asparagus fern, but she can also develop more functions for it.
If you can't keep it, just hand it over and sell it for a good price.
……
After the two reached a deal.
Wang Xifeng was in a very complicated mood, so much so that when she carried Wenzhu out, the usually decisive Feng Lazi became slow and unsatisfactory.
Qin Keqing did not urge her. It was only a few steps to the door anyway. Although she had to use some tricks, getting Qiao Ping'er to her side was equivalent to changing her fate.
The merits outweigh the faults!
Ping'er, who was chatting with others outside, saw Wang Xifeng come out with the pot of asparagus fern tightly in her hand, and hurried forward to take it.
Wang Xifeng stopped her and said:
"Ping'er, Rong'er's wife was short of useful people and she took a fancy to you. She asked me for you and I agreed."
"..." Ping'er's face was filled with astonishment. She couldn't believe that she would be given away by Wang Xifeng.
Until Qin Keqing took her hand affectionately and said:
"Ping'er, you will stay by my side and serve me well from now on. I will treat you like my own sister and will never treat you unfairly."
Ping Erh then woke up from her dream, fell to her knees, and said with tears in her eyes:
"Second Grandma, did I do something wrong? Why do you treat me like this?"
Wang Xifeng also felt bad:
"Ping'er, this is for your own good, and for my own good. From now on, you should stay by Rong'er's side and serve her well."
He hurriedly uttered two sentences and left as if escaping.
Ping'er looked at her back as she walked away and instantly collapsed to the ground.
Qin Keqing helped her up, her eyes full of pity:
"If you say that others are jealous, then Sister Feng is a jealous person. No matter how capable and considerate you are, Ping'er, as long as Second Master Lian looks at you a few more times, Sister Feng will be jealous and cause trouble for you."
Ping'er remained silent, lowered her eyes in tears, and her thoughts drifted away.
She thought of the four main maids who came to the Jia Mansion as dowry with Wang Xifeng. They were young and full of energy at that time.
However, time flies, some die and some get married, and I am the only one left.
Over the years, she has been walking on thin ice around Wang Xifeng, always worried about being fired, so she is careful in everything she does.
But unexpectedly, Wang Xifeng still couldn't tolerate me.
……
Soon, the news that Wang Xifeng exchanged Ping'er for Wenzhu spread throughout the Jia Mansion like a gust of wind.
When everyone heard the news, they all talked about it, and no one knew what Wang Xifeng was crazy about.
Amidst all the criticism, Wang Xifeng returned to her room with Wenzhu in her arms and subconsciously ordered:
"Ping'er stays, and the others leave."
The maids looked at each other, and no one dared to be the first to speak.
Wang Xifeng slapped her forehead, waved her hand and asked everyone to leave, buried the guilt of betraying Ping'er deep in her heart, and immediately began to study the asparagus fern, praying in her heart:
"I hope you can help me change my fate!"
At this moment, the maids' screams and Jia Lian's angry footsteps were suddenly heard outside the door.
Then the door was kicked open, and the suave Jia Lian rushed in with a face full of anger:
"Wang Xifeng, what do you mean by this?! Are you crazy to give Ping'er to Rong'er as your wife?"
Wang Xifeng was originally very sad, and when she saw her husband caring so much about Ping'er, she immediately became jealous and said coldly:
"She is my maid. I can give her to anyone I want. It is none of your business, Master Lian!"
"What is none of my business? Even you are my man, not to mention Ping'er!"
Jia Lian had been thinking about Ping'er for a long time, but Wang Xifeng was keeping a close eye on him. Recently, he finally showed signs of loosening up, but unexpectedly, she turned around and sent Ping'er away.
In a rage, Jia Lian spoke without thinking, cursing Wang Xifeng as a jealous woman and a tigress, with unprecedented harshness of words.
Wang Xifeng couldn't stand this, so she went up and scratched Jia Lian's face.
The couple started fighting each other in an instant, and the maids were so scared that they turned pale and trembled, and subconsciously called Ping'er to come and mediate.
Fortunately, although Jia Lian is a man, he is very strong.
But after his anger was used up, he immediately recalled Wang Xifeng's former power, and realized that he would not gain any benefits even if he won, so he left indignantly.
Wang Xifeng was left holding Wenzhu, crying her heart out, her heart broken, and cursing the man for being heartless.
