Chapter 349: The Bad-headed Male Protagonist: Reincarnated as the Ex-wife of a Poor Family’s Top Sch

Bai Yunzhi saw his face in the mirror and couldn't help but reach out and touch it, thinking, that should be beautiful too!

However, as soon as this thought flashed through his mind, he suddenly came to his senses as if he had been electrocuted. He slapped his cheeks hard, as if to drive the crazy thoughts out of his mind.

"What's wrong with me? Why do I want to wear women's clothes?" Bai Yunzhi murmured to himself, with a hint of fear and disbelief in his voice.

He quickly shook his head, trying to calm himself down, and warned himself: "I must never have such absurd thoughts again! I have to go see a doctor immediately to see if there is something wrong with my brain..."

Bai Yunzhi changed into his favorite clothes, skillfully opened the fan, and then looked at himself in the mirror. He checked his appearance, from his hair to his face, to every wrinkle on his clothes, not missing any detail.

After a careful inspection, Bai Yunzhi finally nodded with satisfaction. He felt that his outfit today was perfect, without any flaws, and only then did he take the servant to meet Yuanniang.

Yuanniang had been waiting in the carriage for half an hour. It was already May and the weather was getting hotter. She was getting impatient.

Until Bai Yunzhi appeared at the door, she grumbled in dissatisfaction: "Why does my cousin take so long?"

Bai Yunzhi glanced at the other person calmly and said, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time. You are dressed up and look lively and pretty today, so I naturally can't fall behind, right?"

Yuanniang tugged at her pigtails and lowered her head shyly: "Thank you for the compliment, cousin! You look particularly handsome and elegant today!"

Bai Yunzhi lifted the curtain and got on the carriage. He watched the carriage gradually enter the busy street. The number of pedestrians on the road gradually increased. His eyes swept across the clothes and attire of the women passing by.

Occasionally, when he sees one or two people dressed brightly, Bai Yunzhi will take a few more glances.

The carriage started slowly, and the atmosphere inside was a bit depressing.

Yuanniang secretly looked at Bai Yunzhi and saw that he had a tall and straight figure, a handsome face, and a folding fan in his hand, looking like a romantic young man.

But his gaze towards the sunset falling on him was always looking out the window, and his eyes flashed from time to time, as if he saw something interesting!

Yuanniang's eyes flickered slightly, and she moved closer to Bai Yunzhi, following his gaze and seeing his eyes occasionally passing over those women.

Yuanniang felt a pang of bitterness in her heart. She coughed lightly and said coquettishly, "Cousin, what's so good about those vulgar women out there? Can't you just look at me more?"

Bai Yunzhi withdrew his gaze calmly, lowered the curtain, and couldn't help but pull back, saying: "Yuan Niang, go back and sit down, we will be there soon!"

When Yuanniang felt Bai Yunzhi moving away, her smile froze and she sat back with an unhappy look on her face.

Soon, the carriage stopped at the largest jewelry store in the capital.

Bai Yunzhi got out of the car first.

Yuanniang followed closely behind, and originally thought that Bai Yunzhi would help her down, but she saw that Bai Yunzhi had already raised his foot and went in.

Yuanniang got out of the car, stamped her feet angrily, and quickly followed: "Cousin, wait for me!"

Bai Yunzhi is looking at jewelry.

The ornaments on the first floor were relatively cheap, slightly dull in color, and not so beautiful and exquisite. Bai Yunzhi curled his lips and said, "These are not good-looking!"

The shopkeeper served with a smile and said respectfully, "Is the salary for buying jewelry for your wife? Most of the people buy jewelry on the first floor. The jewelry on the second and third floors will be better. We also have custom-made services. Why don't you go to the second floor to have a look?"

Bai Yunzhi calmed down, glanced at Yuanniang who was walking over, and nodded: "Take us to the second floor!"

Yuanniang's eyes sparkled and a smile appeared on the corners of her mouth. It was obvious that her cousin was buying it for her, which was why he was so attentive. The cheaper jewelry upstairs, such as the pearl flower hairpin, cost one hundred taels!

Her current pocket money is only five taels of silver a month, which is not enough to go to the second floor!

She had seen Lin Shuwan's dowry list before, and this Treasure Pavilion was Lin Shuwan's most expensive, largest and most valuable dowry.

Lin Shuwan’s things belong to her cousin, so you can’t just take anything here!

Yuanniang walked quickly to Bai Yunzhi and whispered, "Cousin, this shop is your sister-in-law's dowry shop!"

Bai Yunzhi's eyes flickered slightly, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became even more gentle and unrestrained.

There were quite a few people on the second floor, all of them dressed in silk, satin, and brocade clothes, and some of them were daughters of minor officials.

Chunliu walked to the third floor with a cup of fragrant tea and some snacks. From afar, she saw Bai Yunzhi and Yuanniang choosing jewelry at the counter on the second floor.

Chunliu quickly found a corner and watched the two men's actions.

Yuan Niang picked up a jade bracelet, looked at Bai Yunzhi with a smile, and asked, "Cousin, do you think this jade bracelet is suitable for me?"

Bai Yunzhi had no time to pay attention to Yuanniang. His eyes were fixed on the various exquisite jewelry on the counter, full of admiration and admiration. He picked up a hairpin and said, "This butterfly hairpin is so exquisite!"

"This pearl headpiece is so beautiful!"

"This pair of hairpins looks great too!"

Yuan Niang glanced at the things Bai Yunzhi had seen, her eyes flickered slightly, and she immediately put down the plain jade bracelet, moved closer to Bai Yunzhi, and said, "Cousin, you have a good eye. How about I help you put it on and try it out?"

Bai Yunzhi couldn't let go of all the jewelry. If there weren't so many people present, he really wanted to try them himself!

Why didn’t I realize that the jewelry these women use is so exquisite before?

He really likes it!

Now Yuan Niang came over, he pursed his lips and said, "Then let me give it to you first!"

There is a special hairstylist in the store who can do different buns according to different jewelry.

Bai Yunzhi directly found a hairdresser, took the jewelry he liked, and took Yuanniang into the small compartment. Then he stared at the hairdresser combing her hair, and couldn't help twisting his fingers, as if he was learning.

But the comber's movements were so fast that Bai Yunzhi frowned and said, "Comb slowly, I'll learn from you!"

The combing lady glanced at the handsome Bai Yunzhi and smiled at Yuanniang, "Madam is so lucky!"

Yuanniang's cheeks turned slightly red, and she shyly cast a charming glance at Bai Yunzhi.

Bai Yunzhi didn't see anything at all, he just stared at the combing lady's slowing movements.

Chun Liu watched the two of them enter the small compartment before going up to a private room on the third floor angrily.

Lin Shuwan was looking at the jewelry design drawings that he had recently collected. Chunliu came in with a cup of tea, looking depressed, and said:

"Miss, I just saw my brother-in-law and my cousin. They were on the second floor and picked out more than a dozen pieces of jewelry. I took a rough look and they cost nearly a thousand taels! They are trying out some pieces downstairs now!"

Hearing this, Lin Shuwan raised his eyebrows slightly, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "It doesn't matter, let them choose."

Chun Liu looked anxious, "Miss, that's over a thousand taels of silver. Isn't this just giving that cousin away for nothing?"

Lin Shuwan put down the pattern in his hand, picked up the teacup and took a sip, "Chunliu, don't worry. I want to see what tricks they can come up with."

She knew exactly how much money those two had.

Chun Liu pondered for a moment and said worriedly, "Miss, this shop is your dowry shop. It's all on the dowry list. My cousin and my son-in-law must know about it. Will they be shameless and take it away without paying?"

Lin Shuwan chuckled, put the pattern he liked on the other side, and said, "Then go and talk to the shopkeeper. No credit, no account keeping. Everyone who comes must pay for it, otherwise I will report it to the police!"

"Then the servant is gone!"

Chunliu handed the teacup to Lin Shuwan, then walked out happily. When she came back, a gloating expression was on her face.

After a while, Bai Yunzhi and Yuanniang chose the jewelry, asked the shopkeeper to pack them, and prepared to check out happily.

The shopkeeper was counting on his abacus, and then he said to Bai Yunzhi and Yuanniang with a smile, "Sir, Madam, here are twelve pieces of jewelry and two sets of head ornaments, costing a total of 1,300 taels. Would you like to pay in banknotes or cash?"

Bai Yunzhi and Yuanniang's excited faces froze and they looked at each other.

Yuanniang pulled Bai Yunzhi's sleeve and shook it: "Cousin..."

Bai Yunzhi's face was also a little ugly. The silver he brought with him was only a few dozen taels at most. He couldn't afford the 1,300 taels. Even if he added his private money, it was only 1,000 taels...

He pretended to be calm and said, "Boss, this shop is my wife's dowry shop, can't you be flexible?"

The shopkeeper still greeted him with a smile, but said firmly: "Sir, our lady has instructed that we don't sell on credit or keep accounts. Everyone who comes must pay for the goods, otherwise we will report to the authorities."

When Yuanniang heard that they were going to report it to the police, she was so frightened that her face turned pale and tears welled up in her eyes. "Cousin, what should we do?"

Bai Yunzhi broke out in sweat on his forehead and secretly cursed Lin Shuwan's cunning.

Just then, several young ladies from official families walked down slowly from upstairs.

The young ladies from the official family have known each other since childhood and have seen many good-looking men. No matter how handsome Bai Yunzhi, the young top scholar, is, his stunning presence is only a fleeting one.

Therefore, when Lin Shuwan later chose this top scholar who came from a poor family, many people felt sorry and gossiped about him.

The woman in the lead was Angel, the daughter of the Minister of Rites. Seeing that Bai Yunzhi had brought other women to his wife's dowry shop to buy things not long after his wedding, she couldn't help but say in a sarcastic tone:

"Hey, isn't this Lord Bai? Is this your new concubine? You've chosen so many good things, why haven't you paid for them yet? Or do you want to use the things from your wife's dowry shop to please your concubine, and you're not paying for it?"

Bai Yunzhi and Yuanniang were both ashamed and annoyed, but there was nothing they could do.

Yuanniang wanted to speak, but when she saw those gentle and polite yet aggressive women, who were wearing rare and top-quality items, she immediately shrank back and hid behind Bai Yunzhi.

Bai Yunzhi recognized the leading woman, his expression changed, he pulled the corner of his mouth to reveal a smile, and said: "Forget it, put these jewelry down first, I will go back to get the silver and come back."

After saying that, he pulled Yuanniang away from the Treasure Pavilion in shame.

The leading woman looked at the fleeing man and woman, sneered, and said contemptuously: "I never thought that this Bai Zhuangyuan couldn't even take out a thousand taels, and even had to pay on credit. What kind of person did Lin Shuwan marry?"

Lin Shuwan and Chunliu had been watching from a high place, and after seeing this scene, they couldn't help laughing.

Lin Shuwan quickly ran downstairs, calling out, "Sister Qi'er~"

The leading woman heard the voice, frowned slightly and turned back. Seeing Lin Shuwan running towards her with a smile on his face, she was stunned for a moment and said unhappily: "Why are you here? How much have you seen?"

This woman is Angel, the granddaughter of the Minister of Rites. She has a good relationship with the original owner. When the original owner got married, these people came to add to her dowry!

She has been at the Bai family these days since her wedding. She came to the Treasure Pavilion very early today and didn't know Angel and the others had come.

Lin Shuwan held Angel's hand, smiled gently, and said: "Of course I saw everything, but Sister Qi'er loves me and protects me like this~"

When Angel saw Lin Shuwan, her anger dissipated a little. She rolled her eyes and snorted coldly, "You girl, you didn't come to meet your sisters after your wedding, but you bumped into them here today. Just now, your husband brought another woman to your house, and you just watched?"

Lin Shuwan smiled and snuggled up to Angel, saying in a sweet voice, "Sister is the best. I have a lot of things to do as a newlywed. I didn't expect that I would meet so many sisters here!"

Angel tapped Lin Shuwan's forehead.

Lin Shuwan raised the corners of her mouth and said, "Sisters, Bai Yunzhi will probably make a big scene when he gets back, but I'm not afraid of him. Let's go upstairs and continue drinking tea. I'll ask the shop to send some good tea."

Angel and others followed Lin Shu upstairs with great interest.

Back in the reception box on the third floor, several young ladies sat together, comforting Lin Shuwan one after another, and gossiping about Bai Yunzhi and Yuanniang.

Lin Shuwan sighed with a sad look on her face and said, "That's my husband's childhood sweetheart, his cousin...they have a very good relationship, and sometimes even I can't get involved!"

Angel said angrily: "This Bai Yunzhi is too much. He just married you and he brought another woman to your dowry shop to take advantage of you. Lin Shuwan, you can't just let it go like this."

The other sisters also echoed.

Lin Shuwan pretended to be weak and wiped away her tears: "I feel wronged too, but after all, we just got married and I don't want to make the relationship too awkward."

Angel patted her hands and said, "You are just too kind. That cousin must have a close relationship with Lord Bai. She might even be his concubine! He can't even afford a thousand taels. If he marries you, he will have money and support. After all your efforts, the Lin family still chose a hypocritical hypocrite!"

At this time, Chunliu came in and reported: "Miss, the son-in-law sent someone to ask you to go back as soon as possible."
