Ye Yuying was dressed in a silvery-red water sleeved shirt and a beige long skirt. When she walked, she twisted her waist slightly, causing her hair to move with gentle steps of the water color, she looked extremely beautiful.
"It's Jade!" Why are you going out alone? " Ye Shenghe had a good impression of Ye Yuying, he did not know what her true face was like, so he asked with a smile.
Ye Yuying only brought a servant but there was no carriage outside. She did not know how she managed to get here. Ye Yuning curled her lips, she did not want to talk to Ye Yuying and continued to play with the peacock.
Unfortunately, she had underestimated Ye Yuying's thick skin. She did not plan to leave empty-handed.
"Third Sister, this thing is so exquisite. Did Uncle buy it for you?" Ye Yuying cried out in alarm, her tone filled with envy, "Uncle is so nice to you … The jewelry that she brought back is all top-quality, Third Sister chose the best one as well. "
That day in Mid-Autumn, when Ye Yuning paid respects to the Pingjing garden in the morning, she took out those few sets of jewelry for them to share.
With Ye Yuchu and Ye Yuhuan here, what Ye Yuying received was naturally not the best. However, because the gifts they received were all precious items, the ones received in the end were naturally not bad either.
But the meaning behind her words, seemed to be saying that Ye Shenghe had left the best jewelry for his daughter, and had even brought her out to buy privately. Although her tone of voice was full of envy, it was actually accusing Ye Shenghe of being unfair.
Ye Yuning almost could not help but sneer. What does my father bringing me here to buy have to do with you?
It was just that in front of an outsider, Ye Yuning forced himself not to say these words.
Ye Yuying's gaze lingered on the few treasures outside, jealousy and envy bubbling in her heart. Why didn't she have a father that loved her so much?
No, that's not right. Father doted on Sister Four and treated me like an ordinary child. However, since he was not legitimate daughter, there was a huge difference in treatment and attitude.
Ye Yuying secretly gripped the handkerchief tightly, lowered her head, and covered the resentment and unwillingness in her eyes. Ye Shenghe did not notice her strange expression, and instead laughed: "Which one does Yu Ying like, Big Uncle will buy it for you."
"Father..." Ye Yuning pouted, obviously unhappy.
He brought him out to play this time, in order to compensate for himself, why would Ye Yuying make it so that even she would have a share of the compensation? Towards his father's meticulous and comprehensive style of doing things, Ye Yuning felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
"Yu Ying is your sister. As your sister, you have to be magnanimous." Ye Shenghe did not bother with Ye Yuning's words.
Ye Yuning was helpless, she could only nod her head.
"Thank you, uncle!" Ye Yuying's eyes shined as he looked at Ye Shenghe, with a gentle and obedient look, without any signs of scheming.
"There are even more things in the back room. Manager Qiu, bring the two of them in and take a look. Each of them will take one." With Ye Shenghe's orders, Manager Qiu immediately bowed and led the two sisters into the inner room.
Ye Yuning intentionally slowed down her footsteps, and landed behind Ye Yuying. At this moment, a faintly discernible fragrance wafted into her nose, carrying a familiar scent.
Ye Yuning subconsciously creased her nose, and glanced at Ye Yuying, "This fragrance …. It's clearly the smell of cartilage … "
Chondroitin was an extremely rare spice. It was made with several common spices, such as cloves, durex, and chicken bone. It was mixed with some special medicines that would perpetuate the aroma. The reason why it was called the Cartilage Incense was because that incense was used by females to confuse males. Especially those brothels' females, they loved that incense the most.
"What does she want to do? "I actually used this Cartilage Incense Body …" Ye Yuning frowned, he could not understand no matter how much he thought about it.
Cartilage incense wasn't hard to buy. It was just that if a young miss from a rich family like them were to be found out and bought this type of spice, it would be detrimental to their reputation.
"Thinking about how Ye Yuying had gone out alone today, the suspicions in Ye Yuning's heart grew even stronger. The incense was only used to seduce men, Ye Yuying … Who is she trying to seduce? "
A few names popped up in Ye Yuning's heart, but they were quickly rejected by her. Just when she was guessing that there might be a break, Manager Qiu had already brought two people to the rear guard room.
The room at the back of the house wasn't big. There were rows and rows of shelves inside the room. Each shelf was separated by a grid and displayed all kinds of rare treasures. If anyone with a discerning eye was present, they would definitely know that these were all rare treasures in the market.
Ye Yuying's eyes lit up, sshe could not help but walk forward, touching this and that. Although there were many shops in the Ye Family, but as a illegitimate daughter, he did not have the chance to choose one. If she had not met Ye Shenghe today, Ye Yuying would not have been so fortunate.
Ye Yuning had been staring at Ye Yuying the whole time, and seeing how she was constantly picking things, she did not even move, her gaze sweeping over and landed on a red coral tree, and could not help but feel moved.
"Fifth sister, what do you think of this?" I didn't expect to see such a treasure here. If you want to pick a good one, I think this one is pretty good. " Ye Yuning pointed to the coral, and asked with a smile.
Ye Yuying raised her gaze, her eyebrows knitted, and then let go of's question, "Third Sister must be joking, the coral's color is not good, I'm afraid it's not good! It's rare that uncle wants to give me something. No matter what, I have to choose something better so that I can show uncle's generosity.
Ye Yuning almost couldn't laugh out loud when she heard it, but she could only mock Ye Yuying in her heart.
Corals are divided into three types: white coral, blue coral and red coral. In the eyes of ordinary people, the red coral was naturally the most precious. They believed that the redder the color, the better it was. In fact, all three corals have top breeds.
Aside from the white and blue colors, the fiery red fire coral was the most sought after amongst the red coral, but that was something only the main wife and legitimate daughter could use.
Although this coral was not red in color, its color was extremely pure. Moreover, it was also a rare peach color. Its price was not any lower than that of a fire coral. Ye Yuying, the illegitimate daughter, naturally did not understand the logic behind it.
Ye Yuning did not speak, but Manager Qiu could not resist and explained in a few sentences, his words were similar to Ye Yuning's thoughts. Hearing this, Ye Yuying's face couldn't help but turn red, as she angrily stomped her feet.
"Fifth sister, it's not that I don't want to, but if I buy a fire coral for you, I'm afraid I'll be scolded by third aunt!" Ye Yuning said with a smile.
Having heard the shopkeeper and Ye Yuning talk about the various good things about the coral in his hands, how could Ye Yuying bear to let go of her hand? At this moment, she wasn't scolded in her heart at all, as she was completely occupied by the rare coral.
Ye Yuying held the handkerchief in her hand, took a deep breath and laughed, "Then let's do this!"
