Chapter 44

Half an hour later, Li Xiaonan ran out of the teahouse holding a pair of silver lockets.

Gu Yan stood up, walked slowly to the door of the tea house, watched Li Xiaonan rush into Cailian Lane quickly, turned around, and pointed at the shopkeeper with his hands down, "Work hard and do the business well." After finishing speaking , out of the tea house, got on the horse and left.

Li Xiaonan ran into the house in one breath, closed the courtyard door with a slam, and opened her hands to meet Li Yinzhu who was rushing up, and held the delicate silver coin in front of Li Yinzhu.

"Is this silver? Why is it so beautiful?" Li Yinzhu stretched her neck and looked around the silver key for half a circle.

"It's called silver curly, and it's called Gongsi." Li Xiaonan stuffed the silver curly into Li Yinzhu's hand.

Li Yinzhu hurriedly opened his palm, carefully held up the silver box, and looked carefully.

"Like two puppies, why is it called Gongsi? What is Gongsi?" Li Yinzhu didn't seem to understand.

"I don't know, I don't know if there is enough weight." Li Xiaonan stretched out her hand, picked up the silver handle and weighed it.

"That person is so good-looking, it must be enough." Li Yinzhu looked determined.

Li Xiaonan curled her lips, weighed it again, pulled out the purse tied inside her skirt, and put the money in it.

This purse was secretly sewn by Li Yinzhu with a few pieces of old cloth for Li Xiaonan. It is not pretty but very strong. This purse has been empty all this time, but now it is finally used.

"You really don't want to tell Eldest Sister?" Li Yinzhu watched as Li Xiaonan fastened her purse and put it inside her skirt.

"How do you tell Eldest Sister? Can Eldest Sister rest assured?" Li Xiaonan cast a sideways glance at Third Sister.

"A tael of silver!" Li Yinzhu pointed to the purse.

"If he can come tomorrow, then there will be two taels. Sister San, if there is another tael tomorrow, let's eat crab shell yolks, and each of us will eat two!" Li Xiaonan said with a smile.

"You only think about good things, one tael today, one tael tomorrow, one tael a day, which family can have so much money?
"We don't eat crab shell yellow, it's a little bit bigger, ten big bucks! It's so big!" Li Yinzhu shook his head firmly.

Li Xiaonan patted her third elder sister, "Third elder sister, when you marry into the Hong family, ask Hong Er to buy you a bunch of crab shell roe, eat as much as you want, you can throw one away!"

"Look at your words! This is not marriage, this is madness!" Li Yinzhu gave Li Xiaonan a supercilious look.

Wan Jing followed Gu Yan's entourage, dismounted at the second gate of Bieye, walked through the long alley, and entered the corner gate of the East Garden.

Dongyuan is centered on Dongyuan Lake. Although Dongyuan Lake is used by Bieye to grow lotus roots and raise fish, the scenery is very good. One side of the lake is full of hydrangeas. The color of hydrangeas is old now, but there is another Fanzi.

Wan Jing walked along Dongyuan Lake, watching while walking, the beautiful scenery in front of her made Wan Jing feel much better.

In a warm pavilion facing the lake by the lake, the doors and windows facing Dongyuan Lake were wide open. Miss Shi was sitting by the window, holding a fishing rod, and was concentrating on fishing.

Pan Shihui was next to Miss Shi, with the fishing rod on the shelf, twisting her head and talking to Wei Shuqing, the sixth wife of the Wei family.

Beside him, Wei Shulin, the fourth wife of the Wei family, was telling a collection of poems to the youngest sister, Wei Shumei.

"Huh, is that Wanyan?" Miss Shi suddenly gasped.

"Let me see!" Pan Shihui immediately stood up and tiptoed to look out.

"It's Wanjing. It's close to my cousin's yard. She's probably free, and she's out to visit the garden. My cousin is not at home today." Wei Shuqing followed Pan Shihui and stood up.

"Second Aunt said in the morning that the window screen was not bright, so I asked someone to ask Wan Jing if there was any other screen, saying that she went out with Shizi." Miss Shi laughed.

"Huh! I asked him to accompany us to the theater yesterday, and he said that he had official business today, so he took Wan Jing to do the business? What kind of official business is that?" Pan Shihui wondered.

"With late eyes, that's to see the material, right?" Wei Shuqing guessed.

"Call her over and ask if there are any fresh ingredients!" Pan Shihui turned her head and told the girl, "Go and ask Miss Wanjing to come over."

Wan Jing followed the little girl into the Nuan Pavilion, and bowed their knees to salute one by one.

"You went out with Shizi? What did you do? Did you go to see the ingredients? Are there any new ingredients?"

Wan Jing was turning around and bowing her knees to salute, Pan Shihui couldn't wait to ask.

"Back to Ninth Lady." Wan Jing lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes, "The rules in our house, master's words and whereabouts, are not allowed to be revealed. Our Shizi has the strictest rules, please forgive me, Ninth Lady."

"Oh! Then you did go out with your cousin!" Wei Shuqing laughed.

Fourth lady Wei Shulin frowned, and patted Wei Shuqing with a book, "You are the only one who is smart!"

"Liu Niangzi, forgive me." With her eyes lowered, she bent her knees at Wei Shuqing.

"You're back, isn't the Shizi also back?" Pan Shihui asked again with a smile.

"If you want to know if the son is back, you can just let someone go over to see it. Why bother her." Miss Shi patted Pan Shihui lightly, looked at Wanjing and smiled, "Go back and rest."

"Yes, Miss Xie, the servant girl will leave." Wanyan exited the Nuan Pavilion with lowered eyes and lowered hands, took a few steps back, turned and left.

"I'll go and have a look! If the son comes back, let him accompany us to the teahouse to watch a show!" Pan Shihui confessed, carrying her skirt, and ran to find Gu Yan.

"Let's go and have a look too." Miss Shi stood up and pointed to Pan Shihui with a helpless expression.
