Chapter 557: Evil people have their own trials and tribulations
The servant looked at Jiang Er's suddenly angry face, somewhat puzzled: "Master, you...what's wrong with you? Who made you angry?"
"Who said I was angry?" Jiang Er glared at him in dissatisfaction, fanned himself vigorously, and then got on the Taiping carriage and said to the driver, "Go to the carriage shop, immediately, right away!"
The servant watched the driver drive away with the cart, while Jiang Er was still sitting in the cart reading his newspaper, so he quickly chased after him.
But he didn't dare ask Jiang Er to return the newspaper, so he could only look at Jiang Er with grievance.
Jiang Er noticed his aggrieved look and immediately thought of Xie Tang who had been pretending not long ago. He snorted in annoyance and continued reading his newspaper.
He remembered it this time; that kid will never try to deceive him again!
Unfortunately, when Jiang Er arrived at Taiping Car Dealership, he did not see the sample car, but only saw a picture album.
The album shows different styles of bicycles, as well as different patterns and accessories for customers to choose from.
Although the pictures are well drawn, they are not as intuitive as looking at the car in person.
Even so, Jiang Er was wealthy enough to place an order directly and chose the most luxurious style.
This bicycle costs 299 taels of silver, but its design is very domineering and beautiful. Jiang Er fell in love with it at first sight and paid the full amount directly - because paying the full amount allows him to pick up the bicycle the fastest.
However, due to the complex craftsmanship of Jiang Er's car and the hand-carving on the car, it will take at least three months to pick up the car.
Jiang Er didn't want to wait too long, so he spent an extra 100 taels of silver on rush work, shortening the time to pick up the car to one month.
After spending nearly four hundred taels of silver in one go, Jiang Er felt refreshed.
Noticing the envious looks from the people around him, he raised his chin proudly, gently shook the folding fan in his hand, and walked out of the car dealership in a handsome manner.
The news soon reached Xie Ying's ears.
Xie Ying shook her head in disdain and looked at Bai Sui again: "Do you think he is stupid?"
Baisui also looked disgusted: "Maybe it's because he has too much money that his brain has become stupid."
Xie Ying blinked curiously: "So, are you going to help him manage the money?"
Bai Sui's pretty face flushed: "Why should I help him manage the money?"
Then he laughed at himself and said, "Besides, what is my identity? What is his identity?"
Xie Ying said nonchalantly, "What's the big deal? If the Jiang family dislikes your status, I'll let Grandpa adopt you as his adopted daughter. Then you'll be the daughter of an official."
Baisui was stunned at first, then said: "If I want to marry him, I must make myself worthy of him, otherwise I will only be deceiving myself."
Xie Ying asked curiously: "Do you want to marry him?"
Baisui snorted softly, "Not yet."
Xie Ying became even more curious: "Why?"
"He's so stupid." Baisui snorted again, then asked in a low voice, "Princess, if I have a child in the future, do you think the child will have a birthmark on his face?"
"If you take good care of the baby, it won't happen." Xie Ying leaned close to her ear and whispered, "The birthmark on your face means that when your mother was pregnant with you, your family didn't let her take good care of the baby."
Bai Sui's eyes turned cold: "So they are the ones who made me become like this?"
"That's right." Xie Ying nodded affirmatively.
She asked about Baisui's life before her birth. After Baisui was born, she was treated as a monster by her family because of the birthmark on her face. If her mother hadn't protected her desperately, she would not have survived.
Because of this incident, her mother was divorced by her husband, who kicked her and her out without even letting her have a chance to recuperate after giving birth.
That family is capable of doing such a thing, so they are obviously not good people.
When her centenarian mother was pregnant with her, she must have been very busy at home and it was impossible for her to take good care of the fetus.
"Princess, I want to leave for a few days."
Baisui was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke.
Xie Ying looked at her deeply and reminded her softly, "Don't bring trouble upon yourself."
Baisui sneered, "Don't worry, Princess. I've finally had a good life now, but I won't be so foolish as to perish with others."
She just wanted to go back and see how those people were doing and make them suffer a little.
But I won't be so stupid as to get myself involved, or even implicate my benefactor.
Seeing that she was not confused, Xie Ying did not stop her and directly gave her a month's vacation.
Baisui thanked him, packed up a small bag and left Gusu.
After getting outside, she disguised herself again to make sure that no one could recognize her so as not to cause trouble for Xie Ying.
Jiang Er did not ask anyone to monitor Baisui, so when Baisui left, no one told him the news.
It was Jiang Er who came to find Xie Ying and found that Baisui was not there. He asked curiously and found out that Baisui had already left.
He was suddenly struck by lightning and froze in place: "She...why did she leave suddenly?"
Seeing him look devastated by the separation of life and death, Xie Ying couldn't help but say, "She's only gone for a few days, it's not like she won't be back. Why are you so sad?"
Jiang Er's face froze, and after a while he started to speak stubbornly: "Who's sad? I... I'm just surprised!"
"Aren't you sad?" Xie Ying teased him deliberately, "I thought you were very sad and wanted to tell her."
Jiang Er's expression froze again, and then he smiled flatteringly at Xie Ying: "Then please talk to her for me, I'm almost heartbroken!"
Xie Ying gave him a look of disdain and didn't bother to pay attention to him.
But she soon discovered that Jiang Er was actually a romantic man.
Baisui’s sudden departure was actually a big blow to Jiang Er.
Even the fact that Li Dongqing and Luo Junqian passed the imperial examinations did not make Jiang Er much happy.
It was not until half a month later that Baisui suddenly came back. Jiang Er, who had been absent-minded, seemed to be suddenly revived and became energetic again. He couldn't wait to run to Baisui and ask him all kinds of questions.
Baisui didn't know whether he was moved by his infatuation or because of some stimulation he experienced during this trip, but his attitude towards Jiang Er was obviously much better and he was no longer as cold as before.
Jiang Er kept asking her questions, but she didn't get impatient and answered them one by one.
However, Xie Ying could tell that Baisui was obviously not telling the truth.
So after sending Jiang Er away, she whispered to Baisui, "Did you go find them? What did you do?"
Bai Sui told the truth this time, and she curled her lips in sarcasm: "He divorced my mother back then, ruthlessly drove us mother and daughter out, and then quickly married a new wife.
Unfortunately, his new wife is not as easy to bully as my mother, and her brothers from her mother's side are not easy to deal with either.
My cruel grandmother and ruthless father were completely controlled by them. Even if that woman cheated on him, they didn't dare to seek justice for her.
The son born to that woman was not a good person either. He was fat, had big ears, a face full of flesh, was disobedient and unfilial, and was now forcing his family to give him money to marry a wife.
Judging from his appearance, he's probably a bastard. They'll have a lot to suffer in the future."
Baisui said this with a mischievous smile, "I took all the money they had saved with great effort and secretly gave it to my mother. She now has a husband who loves her and children with normal looks. She lives a good life, but she is still a little worried about me."
Xie Ying felt that something was wrong with her mood: "Did you see your mother?"
