Space peasant girl: madly criticizing Xianggong for being weak and bullying

Chapter 292 Qilin Pei

Jiao'er scratched her head: "I just want you to see if I'm doing well."

Shopkeeper Qian had the posture of a retired old man, holding the milk tea with relish, looking at his daughter with pride and pride.

Xiaoxiao praised Qian Jiaoer without hesitation, gave Qian Jiaoer a thumbs up, and taught her how to make a new cup with her own hands, which made Jiaoer very excited.

After appeasing the fans, Xiaoxiao finally explained the reason for her visit today: "Actually, today, I'm here to find Shopkeeper Qian."

Shopkeeper Qian was confused: "Me?"

Xiaoxiao took out the pawn ticket: "To be honest, I want to ask Shopkeeper Qian if he still remembers this."

Seeing the name of the shop on the pawn ticket, a trace of nostalgia flashed across Qian's face, but when he saw clearly what was on the pawn ticket, he was momentarily stunned.

After carefully looking at it several times, he finally recognized the rubbings of the jade pendant on the pawn ticket that had been yellowed for a long time and could not see the original appearance clearly.

"This is……"

To be honest, Xiaoxiao didn't have much hope for finding this thing, so she was already mentally prepared to return in vain, but shopkeeper Qian said, "Isn't that the unicorn pendant?"

Xiaoxiao couldn't see the shadow of Qilin from the incomplete rubbing at all, so she was very surprised: "Master Qian has a good memory."

Shopkeeper Qian scratched his head: "It's not that good, I will remember this thing, mainly because..."

Qian Jiaoer, who was in a hurry to give Xiaoxiao food and drinks, came over to have a look: "Hey? Isn't this the dowry you prepared for me?"

Shopkeeper Qian glared at his proud and helpless daughter: "Why are you jumping out of everything!"

Xiaoxiao: ...

Shopkeeper Qian told her: "Miss Ning has been kind to my family, and I won't hide it from you. In fact, there are so many things in my shop, and it's been so many years, I can't remember everything clearly, but this jade pendant is in my hand. Afterwards, I asked someone to estimate the price, and the quality of this jade is rare, with a conservative value of 800 taels."

Xiaoxiao asked, "Then why didn't you sell it?"

Shopkeeper Qian was a little embarrassed: "To be honest, I happened to be away at the time, and the guy didn't think much about it, so he just took it away. Later, I asked, and I heard that the person who came to sell it was just an ordinary person. For a family with such a good thing, I thought that maybe they came from a wrong path, so I dare not go out for fear of getting into trouble."

"Although it was still calm after a long time, I didn't hear of any big family throwing things, and the original owner never came to redeem them. Thinking that the family just lacked a family heirloom, so... I left it alone. .”

Later, seeing Jiao'er growing up slowly, he thought about giving his daughter something close to her body. This thing should be convenient for storage and not eye-catching, but it is valuable. Considering this, is there anything more suitable than the unicorn pendant? ?So this thing naturally became Jiaoer's dowry.

It was related to her life experience, so Xiaoxiao said directly: "Uncle Qian, I'll tell you straight, it was my grandfather who sold the jade pendant back then, but he stole it from my house, and it's very important to me. I matter."

Before she finished speaking, Qian Jiaoer, who had just left, had already rushed back with a wooden box in her hand: "Sister Xiaoxiao, is this what you're talking about?"

Shopkeeper Qian also pushed the box towards Xiaoxiao. The two showed no reluctance. Xiaoxiao couldn't help laughing. She bowed respectfully to Shopkeeper Qian's father and daughter: "Thank you both."

Of course, things need to be taken, but they can’t be taken for nothing. Xiaoxiao forced 800 taels of silver bills to the money shopkeeper according to the market price, and then agreed to take back the jade pendant. During the appraisal, I heard from the master that this thing probably came from the capital."

Xiaoxiao kept this matter in her heart, and looked at it for a long time with the jade pendant after returning home.

Is this what will reveal the secret of her identity?

If there is a chance, should she go to the capital?
She suspected that her mouth was open, otherwise she could think about everything, and the idea of ​​going to the capital hadn't turned a few corners before County Magistrate Shen came looking for her.

"Your Majesty wants to meet the rice growers, who is better for your family?"

Ning Fengnian and Song Shi are not good. First of all, their psychological quality is not good enough. Just thinking about it makes their heart beat faster, their breathing is short of breath, and they almost faint. Officials have to be careful what they say, he is so easy to get into trouble.

From this point of view, Xiaoxiao and Ning Ansheng are the only ones who can go to the imperial court, but this is another embarrassing thing. In August, Ning Ansheng will take the academy examination for talent.

The college exam is held twice in three years, and it was held only last year, so if he misses this time, he will have to wait for another two years.

Xiaoxiao didn't hesitate at all: "I'll go."

The family members were worried, and Ning Ansheng also said that he still needs two more years to settle down, so Xiaoxiao sighed: "Brother, if you say this, aren't you afraid that Dean Lu will come and beat you with a ruler?"

With the help of Ning Ansheng's unremitting efforts and the help of Xiaoxiao's cheating device, his knowledge can be said to advance by leaps and bounds, and the talent he displayed made Dean Lu amazed. He deeply felt that after Chen Yong left, no one in the academy was competent. His teacher, so he rolled up his sleeves and went into battle himself.

So now, Ning Ansheng has become the junior junior brother of County Magistrate Shen and Mr. Chen, making other students envious.

In fact, County Magistrate Shen did not approve of the junior brother being abandoned for two years. It was not easy for him to be dragged down by the old house early on. It was hard for him to make up for the lost years. If there is any further delay, it will be really distressing.

But after all, this is a matter of the Ning family, so it's not easy for him to interrupt.

Xiaoxiao looked at everyone's expressions, and had no choice but to take out the jade pendant.

"Master Shen is accompanying me, and Brother Yunzhi and a few other guards are protecting me. Parents and brothers don't have to worry about my safety. I'm so smart and have a good attitude. , Moreover, the jade pendant on my body back then also came from the capital, I want to go and see it."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone stopped persuading her, but after nightfall, when Xiaoxiao passed by her parents' door, she saw that their candles were still on. She didn't have a habit of eavesdropping on other people's conversations, but after the space upgrade, her hearing was too good.

"Qiu Niang, do you think Xiaoxiao will go, can we still see her?"

"If you really don't come back, is it possible that we will break the bond between her and her family because of our reluctance?"

Ning Fengnian sighed: "Of course it won't work. Xiaoxiao is so painful, her parents should miss her more. As long as her parents are not bandits, I naturally hope that she will be reunited with her family."

"We watched Xiaoxiao grow up. Even if she finds her biological parents in the future, we can still treat her as the daughter of the Ning family."

Xiaoxiao stepped lightly and left slowly.

If her biological parents have long forgotten her, she can just treat herself as a passer-by, and there is no need to force her to recognize her. If she finds her biological parents, and the other party has been missing and looking for her, then it will only be more relatives. The Ning family will always be her home, and the Ning family will always be her family.

She knew that even if she said many times that she would not lose her, her parents would still be worried, so after tidying up, she hugged her parents and told them: "I'll bring you some specialties from the capital."
