Chapter 54: Brain damage
"Waiter, please move me to a private room. There are dogs barking here, which really affects my mood."
Qin Ruo didn't even bother to look at Qin Ziyan. She waved to the waiter and asked him to move her to a private room.
"Hey, girl, please wait a moment. I'm coming."
The waiter responded loudly and walked quickly to Qin Ruo with a smile.
"Young lady, please follow me."
The waiter swiftly picked up the teapot on the table and prepared to take Qin Ruo to the private room.
"Wait a minute!" "Aren't you afraid that she can't afford the money and is deliberately eating a free meal?"
Qin Ziyan was very displeased, with a dark face, he reached out to stop the waiter.
Welcoming guests with a smile is the basic way of treating people in Qingfengju. Even so, the waiter's face turned ugly at this moment.
"Sir, are you waiting for someone? Or do you want some tea? If you are looking for someone, please go to the front hall and wait. If you want some tea, we still have a seat on the second floor. I will arrange it for you later."
After saying that, he turned around, made a gesture to Qin Ruo, and led her to the private room.
Qin Ziyan's face flushed red. The waiter's words were obviously an order to leave.
Looking at the strange looks from other customers upstairs, I suddenly felt hot on my face.
I secretly felt happy that none of my classmates were here today, otherwise I would have been laughed at.
Qin Ziyan was afraid that if she continued to pester Qin Ruo, she would embarrass her, so she suppressed her anger, snorted coldly, turned around and went downstairs.
He decided to swallow his anger for now and settle the score with Qin Ruo later.
When he got downstairs, he simply found a corner to sit down, determined to wait here for Qin Ruo to come out.
Even though they moved to a private room, Qin Ruo didn't feel like sitting there again.
She knew exactly what Qin Ziyan was thinking.
It's just that he feels that everyone in the Qin family should revolve around him and sacrifice for him.
He was able to come to Qingfengju, but I shouldn't have come.
He can spend the money, but I can't.
Is this bastard worthy of it?
Qin Ziyan became more and more impatient as he waited downstairs. The last time he went back, Old Lady Qin gave him two hundred coins before leaving.
He also kept reminding him to spend frugally.
The table of food that Qin Qiuxi had just ordered also included a pot of fine tea.
I only took two hundred coins, so what was the money that Qin Qiuxi spent lavishly?
Qin Ziyan began to wonder whether Qin Ruo had embezzled the money from selling the game and the two taels of silver from catching the wolf.
In the past, whenever the family had new income, Old Lady Qin would ask Qin Qiuxi to send it to the academy.
Before returning to the academy, Old Lady Qin promised herself that when Qin Qiuxi came back with the money, she would give him two taels of silver to use at his own discretion to buy some necessities of life.
Now it seems that Qin Qiuxi acted on his own initiative and came here to squander the money given by Old Lady Qin.
In just a short period of time, Qin Ziyan had already imagined several big dramas in his mind.
When Yan Ruo finally came down from upstairs, he no longer cared about anything.
How dare Qin Qiuxi spend the money that grandma gave her?
He gritted his teeth and rushed forward, his eyes red and he growled, "Give me my money!"
Qin Ruo stopped and looked at Qin Ziyan as if he was a fool.
"Your money? The tuition fees you paid for attending the academy in the past few years were all earned by me. Everything you own has been paid for by me. It doesn't matter if you have an empty head, but if your brain is filled with water, it's a disease!"
Qin Ruo's words were like a sharp sword, piercing Qin Ziyan's heart.
He had no confidence to refute at all, because what Qin Ruo said was all true.
If he knew about the series of events that had happened in Changhe Village recently, he would have given up the idea of looking for trouble long ago.
Unfortunately, he missed Qin Ruo's recent "feat", and still wanted to suppress Qin Ruo in every way as before.
"As a scholar, you don't even know your place. I feel ashamed for you. If I were you, I would have dug a hole and buried my face in it."
Qin Ruo's voice was quite loud, and there were quite a lot of guests in the lobby on the first floor.
Seeing this scene, many people looked over curiously. Qin Ruo didn't care at all about how others viewed her.
Qin Ziyan, on the other hand, is used to being arrogant and proud. How could he bear this?
I would rather fight with an intelligent person than talk nonsense.
Qin Ruo felt it was meaningless and walked around Qin Ziyan to leave.
"What's so great about the money you earn? You can only earn a few pennies with brute force. What do you have to be proud of?"
Qin Ziyan was so angry that he laughed. He felt that he had regained his face and spoke more fluently.
"As a girl, you don't think about being frugal and managing the household, but only know how to indulge in pleasure. Do you have any sense of shame?
Qin Ruo suddenly didn't want to leave at this moment, since what Qin Ziyan was most proud of was nothing more than his so-called knowledge.
So today, she would defeat him with what he cared about most.
Let him see how much more powerful his knowledge, which he is so proud of, is compared to someone like me who only has brute force.
"Oh, are you angry? From the looks of it, you must have gone out to set up a stall today. Did you go to the bookstore to copy books? Or write letters for others? I wonder how much money you, a very smart scholar, made today? Is it enough for a pot of tea?"
When Qin Ruo entered Xinglin Hall and wandered around, she had already seen Qin Ziyan, who was setting up a stall on West Street with a sullen face and an air of arrogance.
Even if you pay money and still have to consider other people's faces, I wouldn't patronize there myself.
It was not difficult for Qin Ruo to guess the purpose of Qin Ziyan setting up the stall.
I wanted to prove that I had the ability to make money, but what I ended up proving was how useless I am.
Qin Ruo paused and continued speaking indifferently.
"I have earned some money through brute force, which is more than enough for me to go to the elegant room of Qingfengju and drink a pot of tea and order a few plates of cakes."
"I've been thinking about it. You said I only care about pleasure. It seems that you blame me for not having enough food and not using the money I earned to support you and enjoy life."
Qin Ruo laid out clearly what was in her mind.
Qin Ziyan's face turned pale and blue.
He thought of himself as the eldest son and the only educated person in the family.
Shouldn't all the money earned by the family be centered around oneself?
What's wrong with that? Hasn't it always been this way?
"I have the ability to make money with brute force, but you don't. I have the ability to make money with my brain, but you don't have it either. I don't know what you are so proud of."
Qin Ruo glanced at Qin Ziyan expressionlessly, walked to the most conspicuous position at the entrance of Qingfengju, lowered her head in front of the chessboard on the table, and fiddled with it a few times as if casually.
Then, he turned to the waiter and shouted, "Brother Waiter, I have solved the chess game. Please come and collect the reward."
As soon as Qin Ruo finished speaking, the teahouse suddenly became lively.
“Someone actually solved the chess game that Mr. Mingjing set up three years ago?
People who were drinking tea stood up one after another and rushed over here.
Only Qin Ziyan's feet seemed to be rooted and he stood there, his eyes full of contempt and ridicule.
