Chapter 59

Looking at the mess on the ground, Zhen Tingyun only felt that his chest seemed to be blocked with a breath, which was stuffy and uncomfortable.

She took a deep breath several times, and her nose was full of messy aromas, and the anger in her heart couldn't be suppressed. But this is not the time to be angry, she still managed to calm down, squatted down, and carefully packed up the things in front of her.

Those clothes that were scratched by the cat's claws were no longer usable, and they were thrown away when they were cleaned up. Anyway, in girls' schools nowadays, they mainly wear red shirts and white skirts given by girls' schools. As for the spices spilled on the ground, she couldn't bear to lose them, so she simply packed them in boxes. Although, she also understood in her heart: so many spices were mixed together, and the taste was disturbed, and she must not be able to use it anymore, but she still carefully stored it, and the right should be left to teach herself a lesson-important things must be properly stored Well, otherwise, if there is a mishap, the only one who regrets the heartache is herself.

Fortunately, there were some leftovers in the paper bag holding the spices. Zhen Tingyun carefully repackaged the remaining spices, put them in his box, and locked them.

When she finished packing all these things, the heart that seemed to be frying in hot oil and felt tormented every moment seemed to settle down a bit.

Next, is to wait for someone to come back.

Zhen Tingyun sat on the bed, took the book in his hand, and waited for Qian Manyue and Du Qingqing to return. At the beginning, she still had some ups and downs, and she couldn't settle down, let alone read the book. But she is a determined person after all. She thought about this before and after in her heart, gradually calmed down, and was able to see the dense words on the page - in a few days, the joint entrance examination between the two schools, At this time, she should read the book with a deep heart, and must not be disturbed or hindered by the disgusting behavior of those people.

So, Zhen Tingyun sat cross-legged on his couch and read the book seriously. When she turned to the third page, she suddenly heard the sound of the door being pushed, and the voices of Qian Manyue and Du Qingqing.

Qian Manyue and Du Qingqing opened the door, and naturally they both saw Zhen Tingyun who was sitting beside the bed and flipping through a book.

The smile on Du Qingqing's face has not been put away. Seeing Zhen Tingyun, he can't help but ask with a smile, "Tingyun, are you back?"

Before she finished speaking, she had seen the book in Zhen Tingyun's hand, and her eyes couldn't help but bring some admiration and emotion: "You are too serious, you can still sit in the room and read a book now - I don't How to concentrate like you..."

Zhen Tingyun didn't answer, and just casually placed the half of the scroll he saw on his lap, as if he inadvertently raised his eyes to look at Du Qingqing and Qian Manyue who had just started.

In fact, as early as the first time they entered the door, she raised her eyes and looked at them carefully.

Du Qingqing didn't need to say it - if she really did this, and she could talk to herself with such a calm air, then she would be even more powerful than a famous actor on the stage.

As for Money Moon...

Zhen Tingyun took a deep look at Qian Manyue, but the other party subconsciously kept his voice from the moment he got started. He never spoke, but lowered his head slightly. Of course, Qian Manyue was mostly shy and introverted when facing people these two days, and this behavior didn't seem to violate harmony. However, Zhen Tingyun Yuan suspected her, and at this time, he observed carefully, and naturally noticed: Qian Manyue lowered her head and closed her voice when she entered the door, looked around the back room vaguely, and pursed her very pale lips.

Although it is not completely certain, Zhen Tingyun is indeed almost certain: I am afraid that this is what Qian Manyue did.

Thinking of this, the fire that was suppressed in Zhen Tingyun's heart couldn't help but rise again. It's just that the more angry she is, the more calm her face is, only a pair of eyes are black and white, cold, as if frozen.

She raised her hand, slowly closed the book, put it on the pillow, then got up from the couch, Shi Shiran explained: "It's not all reading, I'm waiting for you to come back, I have something to do. I want to ask you a question."

Hearing this, Du Qingqing frowned suspiciously, then sat back on his bed and said casually, "Well, hello."

Qian Manyue also nodded and walked inside. He was about to go back to his bed to rest for a while when he suddenly said "Yeah", his face was pale, his lips trembled slightly, as if he had been greatly frightened.

Immediately, Qian Manyue's screams could be heard throughout the room——

"My bed! My quilt!! How...how was the cat scratched?"

Seeing the other party's excellent singing performance, Zhen Tingyun almost wanted to sneer, but she still suppressed the curvature of the corners of her lips, and said in a calm tone: "This is what I want to say, we seem to be running around in the room. A cat entered - when I came back, everything in the cupboard was ripped out and scratched by the cat, and even the spices I put in the innermost cupboard were turned out and sprinkled on the ground."

"This, where did the wild cat come from, why are you catching everything..." Qian Manyue's face was pale, her eyelashes trembled, and even her voice was timid, with a clear tone, as if she was about to cry, "I I heard that some cats are particularly sensitive to scents. If it smells the smell of spices in your cabinet and rummages through things, it’s okay to say. Why even my bedding... I’m just such a quilt, I was scratched by the cat, how can I sleep? ?"

Zhen Tingyun snorted coldly, and walked in the direction of Qian Manyue, looking directly at her face that was about to cry, and asked her coldly, "Do you think it is my spices that attracted the cat, what do you think? Is this all my fault?"

"No, no." As if frightened by Zhen Tingyun's aggressive gaze, Qian Manyue bowed her head to avoid it, her eyelashes drooped down, and tears fell down. She choked up and said, "I, I remember, we forgot to close the window before going out at noon, and it was our fault. Tingyun, are you not angry?"

Seeing Qian Manyue crying, Du Qingqing remembered that he and Qian Manyue came back to take a nap at noon, and seemed to have forgotten to close the window when they went out, so he hurried up to persuade him to fight: "Okay, everyone calm down and talk. Living in the same room is considered a fate, so why bother to quarrel like this, it will hurt the feelings instead."

He said to Zhen Tingyun: "It's true that we forgot to close the windows at noon, it's the two of us that are not good. Otherwise, I'll pay for the things and spices that were scratched by the cat? Tingyun, don't be angry. Now, be careful not to hurt your body."

Qian Manyue couldn't help crying, and snuggled into Du Qingqing's arms, her voice even more pitiful: "It's my fault, Tingyun, don't be angry..."

Zhen Tingyun didn't answer, and ignored them. Instead, he stepped over the two and suddenly raised his hand to open his own cabinet.

There was only Qian Manyue's low sobbing in the room for a while.

It was at this moment that Zhen Tingyun opened her mouth slowly, her voice was cold and indifferent, but firmly suppressed Qian Manyue's sobbing, and she only listened to her word by word: "Everyone can If you are admitted to the women's school, you must not be fools. Do you think that if no one helps to open the door of the cabinet, the wild cat can sneak into my cabinet and grab everything in my cabinet? You said that you forgot to close the window when you went out at noon, That's why the feral cat came in, but who helped the feral cat open my cabinet?"

Du Qingqing seemed to realize something, stared at Qian Manyue with wide eyes, and couldn't help but pause.

Qian Manyue was frightened and panicked, and quickly covered his mouth with his hand, and whispered, "You mean, someone deliberately let the cat in and scratched our stuff."

"It's mine, not 'we'." Zhen Tingyun corrected.

Qian Manyue reminded her tearfully: "My quilt..."

"Anyway, your quilt is all worn out. If you scratch it with a cat's paw, it will not only clear your suspicions, but you can also get a brand new one. Like this kind of guaranteed profit, I can do it too. Do it." Zhen Tingyun smiled at her, but that smile was full of irony and coldness, and his words were as sharp as a sword, "Why did you forget to close the window when you went out at noon, so the cat came in - whether to close the window or not. If you don't mention this kind of trivial matter, Du Qingqing probably won't be able to remember it, right?"

Du Qingqing's hand froze as she supported Qian Manyue: Yes, she never paid much attention to such trivial matters, in fact, she didn't really remember whether she closed the window when she went out at noon. Just because Qian Manyue first said, "We forgot to close the window before going out at noon", she was surrounded by such a place, and she vaguely felt that she forgot to close the window when she went out, but it's really not very sure.

Qian Manyue stretched out her hand to wipe away her tears, hiding the look in her eyes. I saw her palm-sized face full of tears, and she seemed to be extremely aggrieved: "You, how can you say that? We have no grievances and no enmity, why would I let a cat in to scratch your things?"

"I was thinking about this just now," Zhen Tingyun said lightly. "After all, we just met for the first time. Unless we are born vicious people, there is really no need to do this kind of detrimental thing to others."

When Qian Manyue heard the words, she cried even more, as if she was about to lose her breath.

"However, I've thought about it - this may not be considered a harm to others and selfishness." Zhen Tingyun said calmly, "Why does the cat have to grab my spices? Because some people have no money to buy spices, they I became a thief and wanted to steal the spices but was afraid of being discovered, so I only stole a little bit, and then used the cat as a guise to sprinkle the spices. In this way, even if some of the spices were stolen, the weight would be less, but I I can't find it either. Maybe, next time I buy spices, I can ask that person to follow and take advantage of it."

Qian Manyue seemed to have been greatly wronged, and cried even more, her thin shoulders trembling, and she said with only a single voice: "I know, I am poor and my family is not good, you all look down on me. But , Tingyun, you can't maliciously speculate on me like this, and wrong me like this..."

Zhen Tingyun ignored her arguments at all, and opened Qian Manyue's cabinet in front of the two of them. Sure enough, he found a few packets of spices inside, all of which were very small.

Qian Manyue cried and said, "I bought it myself."

Zhen Tingyun ignored her, turned to look at Du Qingqing, and asked, "You guys went to buy things at noon, did she buy spices?"

Du Qingqing thought for a while, nodded and said, "I bought it."

Zhen Tingyun asked again, "Did you watch her buy it?"

Du Qingqing nodded - in fact, she gave Qian Manyue the money because she had no money.

At this time, Du Qingqing already had some doubts in her heart: she was not short of money, and she had a sincere temperament and was dedicated to treating people well. At that time, she was thinking of simply buying more, but Qian Manyue said that she could not take advantage of her too much, and that she only needed a little bit of each spice. At that time, Du Qingqing still felt that Qian Manyue was poor and strong, and that he would not fall into the ambition of Qingyun. He was really a good person. Now that think about it, she only needs a little bit of everything, it seems that she has no deep meaning? After all, when it comes to buying other things, money full moon is not just a little bit...

Qian Manyue only lowered her head and cried, her eyelashes were wet, but a hint of pride flashed in her tearful eyes: She really bought the spices in front of Du Qingqing, so the spices in the cabinet could only be "Bought".

However, Zhen Tingyun sneered and said, "You may not be able to return it after you buy it—but, someone like this who just bought the spice and is about to return it when he turns his head must have a thick skin, which is rare in Beijing. Spice is rare. The store should also be fresh in my memory, and I will know when I go to ask tomorrow."

"What's more, the color and texture of the spices are also different. The first lesson in making incense is to debate the incense. The big deal, I will go to ask Mr. Xueli tomorrow to identify whether the incense on both sides of us is related to the same origin."

Listening to Zhen Tingyun's steadfast and calm narration, even Du Qingqing looked at Qian Manyue with hesitation and uncertainty.

Qian Manyue was also a little afraid in her heart, her hands wiping away tears were shaking slightly.

Especially when she heard that Zhen Yiyun was going to inquire about the spice shop and to seek out Mr. Xueli to argue for incense, there was a bit of panicked resentment in her eyes: it was just a little spice! Zhen Tingyun can prepare these things in advance. It can be seen that she has a wealthy family, so why bother with her poor person for these things?

In fact, Qian Manyue had done this kind of thing at home before. Sometimes he got into trouble or stole something, and then he would frame his younger brother—anyway, his younger brother was not smooth at his age, so he could be deceived. Very coaxing. This time, she was still thinking of putting the blame on Du Qingqing. After all, when Du Qingqing said she was a friend, she was actually just coaxing her as a servant girl. The cream, Du Qingqing obviously has a new one, and she has to give her the old one. It is clearly to use her as a maid... But, school has only started now, Du Qingqing has some use value, and Qian Manyue has to find a cat, Just thinking about fooling around.

Who knows... Zhen Tingyun really wants to get to the bottom of the spice thing, so aggressive!

She's already so rich, why does she have to bother with a poor student who can't even buy spices?

Thinking like this, Qian Manyue complained even more about the injustice of God: for someone as stupid as Du Qingqing, and someone who cares about Zhen Tingyun, God treats them very favorably, giving them a good family background and a good status, so that they can have no worries about food and clothing. On the contrary, it is me, who clearly has high aspirations, but has been in a poor family all his life, and his parents still prefer sons to daughters, and they are all partial to his younger brother. I finally earned my life and was admitted to a women's school, and I persuaded my family to pay for it with all my might, but I ran into such two stupid and caring classmates!

If it was her, if she also had a good family background and a good status, she would definitely not be as stupid as they are, who cares about people like this!

Thinking like this, Qian Manyue was ruthless, so she just gave it up, crying loudly: "I don't have it, I really don't have it! Zhen Tingyun, I know you look down on me as a poor man, but why do you have to wrong me like this?! To force me like this?!"

With that said, Qian Manyue reached out and pulled the hairpin out of her hair. The bun of Crow Crow was scattered, and the hair was scattered down.

She held the hairpin in her hand and pointed the sharp end of the hairpin at her neck.

She saw her hair disheveled and described as embarrassed, but her eyes were fixed on Zhen Tingyun, and she gritted her teeth: "Zhen Tingyun, you slander me like this! Are you trying to kill me?!"

Du Qingqing had never seen such a scene again. Even though his face turned pale with fright, he hurriedly grabbed Qian Manyue's hand holding the hairpin, and hurriedly said, "It's just a matter of words, Manyue, don't be impulsive!"

Qian Manyue shook his head again and again, his face was full of tears, his smile was sad, and there was a kind of madness: "I really didn't do those things, even if I died, I wouldn't recognize it. It's better to die clean than to tell you to talk about me like this! Anyway! , even if I die, I will never let go of those who wronged me!"

Du Qingqing coaxed her while holding her hand: "Yes, yes, you didn't do those things, I believe you."

"I don't believe you." Zhen Tingyun interrupted Du Qingqing's words, took a few steps forward, stood upright in front of Qian Manyue, suddenly smiled, and said, "Qian Manyue, if you really have the guts to plunge in, I'll take it. about you."

Qian Manyue stared at her with wide eyes, his eyes were bloodshot, and his eyes were even more like quenched poisonous juice.

Zhen Tingyun was unmoved, instead he stretched out his hand with a calm expression, grabbed Qian Manyue's hand and held the hairpin, and forced it towards her neck: "Come on, if you want to die, just poke it, don't let go."

Zhen Tingyun has seen a lot like Qian Manyue—there are many women in the countryside who cry, make trouble, and hang themselves, but these people are also the most afraid of death. Just like Qian Manyue, she shouted loudly. Maybe she was vicious when she was facing others, but if she was really soft on herself...

Sure enough, seeing Zhen Tingyun grabbing his hand and forcing it towards his neck, the tip of the hairpin gently pressed against his neck, and the sharp thorns pressed against the soft skin, which immediately brought cold and sharp pain.

Qian Manyue couldn't help being horrified, she looked at Zhen Tingyun as if she was looking at a ghost, and the hand holding the hairpin subconsciously let go.

So, the silver hairpin fell from her hand.

Zhen Tingyun sneered, then turned to look at Du Qingqing, who was dumbfounded, and continued, "Now, do you know what kind of person she is?"

Du Qingqing just nodded blankly, then shook his head again.

"You may think she is pitiful, hardworking and worthy of sympathy?" Zhen Tingyun sneered and said sarcastically, "She also thinks you and I are stupid and easy to deceive."

"Last night, she said that her mother borrowed the money for her girls' school from outside, and for this, her mother was beaten by her father - but you also met her mother that day, Does it look like you've been beaten?"

"Okay, let's just pretend that the injury is in a place we can't see. Then, her mother was beaten for her, and there may be injuries on her body, but as a daughter, she can sit on the side with peace of mind and watch the other party's head full of hair. It's the sweat who makes the bed and quilt for himself, how cold and poisonous is this?!"

"Also, she said that her father didn't have a working life, and her mother couldn't make a lot of money washing clothes for people, and the family was so poor that she couldn't even break the pot. Before she came here, she hadn't even had broth for several months... ...turned her head and said that she got two B's in her imperial archery - at least she has practiced, and the poor can't take the blame, so she still has time, leisure, and money to practice her imperial archery?"

"The most ridiculous thing is that she kept saying that she was poor, but she turned around and chose the course of incense making-how expensive is this course, anyone with brains can figure it out just by thinking about it?"

"In the end, she lied a lot from the beginning, just wanting to take advantage of those of us who are richer than her, as a stepping stone..."

In fact, Qian Manyue is young, and these methods are a little rough, or she looks down on "idiots" like herself and Du Qingqing, and she doesn't speak very carefully. To get to the bottom, that is to bully Du Qingqing for being innocent.

Zhen Tingyun originally thought that this person was just a little careful, that it was not a big deal, and that he was afraid of causing trouble, so he didn't expose it.

Unexpectedly, Qian Manyue was really vicious and daring, and even dared to attack her after she had politely refused!
