Chapter 35
"Oh?" Xingchen put down the pen in his hand and listened carefully to Wan Fangfang's words.

"My father asked that person to take care of me. Maybe I will go with Mr. Ke. Of course, you are Mr. Ke's most proud student. You are sure to go. At that time, you should save more of your fruits and sell them to me." , I want to take it on the road to eat."

Xingchen laughed, "Fangfang, if you want to eat fruit yourself, I will naturally pay for it for free. Don't worry, if we can all go, I will naturally pay for all the fruits along the way."

Speaking of which, her fruit shop has been open for three years. Because of the good quality and the introduction of friends, although the price she sells is not cheap, the business is also very good. Over the past three years, I have accumulated a lot of money. .

Except for Manfu and Wanyutang, everyone who came to buy fruit was charged. Of course, her friends didn't count if they ate it themselves.

"Wow, that's really great. By the way, Chen'er, Mr. Ke said that you can take other courses. What do you want to study?"

"I might choose Qin Yi. A few days ago, Mr. Ke took me to meet Mr. Siqin."

"Ah, is that Mr. Siqin, the legendary figure on the Zhongxuan Continent? Chen'er, you are so lucky. It is said that Mr. Siqin traveled to the Five Kingdoms and returned to the Zhongxuan Continent without teaching any disciples."

"Yes. According to Mr. Ke, it's the one."

"Sister Chen! Sister Wan!" The two were chatting when Bao Bao walked in from the door with a displeased look on his face.

"Bao Bao." Xing Chen stood up, walked in front of Bao Bao, stretched out a finger and poked Bao Bao's swollen face, "What's wrong?"

"Sister Chen, mother's eldest sister and third sister are here. Those two people are so annoying. They dragged their families and said that they would join us in the future and live in our house. I don't want them. I don't like them." There were tears in her eyes, but she couldn't bear to let them fall.

Xingchen was also stunned for a moment, Aunt Lan had several sisters, but none of them were good at it, and Second Sister Bao was the best.It is said that she helped someone steal their moon's breath back then and sold it for 500 taels of silver. Now she has opened a winery in Ducheng next door and is living a decent life.

A year ago, Aunt Lan's two younger sisters, Bao Laidi and Bao Zhaodi, also came to Yincheng. Uncle Yu gave them 50 taels of silver each, and they left.Unexpectedly, after a year, the two sisters who received the news came again.

"What do you mean by your mother and your father? Your mother's sister has not seen her for nearly ten years, why did the whole family come here?"

"Father has a cold face, and mother is very embarrassed. Those two old women heard about the relationship between Sister Chen and us, and they said they wanted to eat the fruit in your store. Mother couldn't hold back that face and asked me to come and get the fruit. .” When Baobao said this, he was even more angry.

"Chen'er, why don't you go over and have a look. Unreasonable people are the most terrifying." Wan Fangfang went back first, fearing that it would affect Xingchen.

Xingchen thought for a while, put away all the fruits, leaving only a bunch of grapes, and took the grapes to Wanyutang himself.

Before entering the Wanyu Hall, he heard a burst of crying in the room, and Xingchen couldn't help frowning.

"Chen'er, you're here." Yunong stood at the door because he was upset.Seeing Xing Chen standing at the door, he sighed helplessly.

Over the years, Bao Lan has changed a lot, but every time he sees these sisters in his family, he becomes cowardly, unable to say a word of rejection.

"Uncle Yu, haven't those two families lived in Ducheng all the time? Why are you here?"

"Who knows, it's said that there was a plague over there, so the whole family moved. There are so many people, we can't live here, and I don't want them to live here." To Chen'er, he has nothing to say of.

If he hadn't cared about Bao Lan's feelings, he would have chased him away.

"Let them live here tonight. Brother, move to live in my shop."

"Chen'er, you..." Yunong was a little surprised, Chen'er had always been on his side, what happened today.

Xingchen smiled mysteriously, and said in a low voice, "Maybe they don't want to live here tomorrow."

Yunong froze for a moment, seeing Chen'er's confident smile, he seemed to understand something, this little girl must have a new trick to deal with those people at night.

"Bao Bao, go and wash the grapes." Xing Chen bent down and whispered something to Bao Bao, and Bao Bao ran away happily.

When Bao Bao entered with a plate containing only five or six grapes, the crying people in the room immediately became irritable.

"I said Bao Lan, what do you mean? You don't want to give us food, so you don't have to treat us like this. There are only five grapes, and you think we are beggars?" Bao Damei jumped her feet angrily.

Bao Sanmei also echoed, "Yes, beggars don't eat these things."

"It really compares us to pigs and dogs. You have to feed the dogs and the pigs. Bao Lan, your family is too deceitful." Bao Damei and Bao Sanmei's men also joined the denunciation army.The five drooling and snotty children on one side burst into tears.

Baobao also started to cry, louder than anyone else, scaring Bao Lan, who had no idea, to come back immediately, and stepped forward to hug Baobao.

"Don't cry, don't cry, Baobao!"

"Mother, they have committed a capital crime. If they don't leave, they will be arrested by the government, and they will implicate us."

Baobao was crying so hard, and before the group of people got angry, he said quickly, "Sister Chen's fruit is going to the palace, so there is only this left today, even the emperor and queen will like it Yes, they actually said that beggars and pigs would not eat these things, this is a felony for insulting the royal family..."

Everyone in the whole room fell silent, and then Bao Damei and Bao Sanmei shouted again, "You little bun, who are you scaring, we didn't do anything at all, besides, this grape looks so ordinary , it doesn't look like a holy product enjoyed by the emperor."

"You'll know if you taste it." Xing Chen walked in at the right time.

Everyone in the room looked at Murong Xingchen, with different thoughts flashing in their eyes, this little girl is so handsome, no wonder she came from such a poor place as Wanyu Island, and luckily she became the third wife of Manfu. Miss.

This person really depends on his fate!

Sister Bao didn't believe in evil, she took a grape and ate it first, and she was dumbfounded by the sweet and holy taste, and she staggered and knelt down.

"I was wrong, I was wrong!"

Bao Damei's man was also terrified. He had never seen Bao Damei bow her head to anyone like this, and even knelt and kowtowed.

Sister Bao's two sons also had quick mouths, and the grapes were delicious as soon as they entered their mouths. One of them even sighed, "It's like something a god eats."

There were only two left, and Bao Sanmei's family didn't want to eat it, or not, and finally thought, anyway, there is no one in the government, so I'm afraid that the little bun will do what he said.

Bao Sanmei ate one at a time, and gave the other one to her only baby boy, making her man's eyes bulge out of anger.

Not to mention, they are also grapes, the grapes that can enter the imperial city are delicious, and she only eats one, and it feels as if she has been touched by the royal family. She feels comfortable and sweet to the heart.

"That third sister. What happened today was our slip of the tongue. Don't talk nonsense. We will trouble you in the future." Bao Sanmei is better at talking than Bao Damei. Lan's character only came to Yincheng with her family, so she didn't mind talking softly when it was time to speak softly.

"Aunt Lan, it's getting late today, you guys should rest earlier, I'll go back first." Xing Chen greeted them and left.

Outside the door, Man Tianqi was standing outside the door, no matter how far or near he looked, he looked like a beautiful boy.

"Chen'er, let's go!" Man Tianqi is used to picking her up every night. In the past three years, his swordsmanship has improved a lot, but he still can't do it when he meets a strong enemy, so grandpa said He was going to be sent to an old friend of his in the capital to learn more advanced martial arts.

He was hesitating, a little reluctant to part with Chen'er, Yincheng, and Qiao Yue.

"Wait for me. Come with me!" Xing Chen took Man Tianqi around to the backyard of Wan Yu Tang, gesticulated with her fingers in the air, and a translucent butterfly appeared, and she picked up a few leaves on the ground , fingers quickly made complicated knots on a leaf, and then several leaves patted each other, and the knots were copied on the leaves, and then they all flew into Wanyu Hall with the butterfly...

"Chen'er, what did you do?" On the way home, Man Tianqi couldn't help asking curiously.

He knew that in the past three years, Chen'er had been learning the spiritual arts that Si Lingye gave her, so he was used to her strange behaviors and experiments, but he was still curious.

Xingchen smiled mysteriously: "Ghosts are scary, haha."

Man Tianqi fondled her head, "I'm getting more and more fond of teasing people."

"Tianqi, Chen'er!" In the distance, there were two figures approaching from far away.

"Cheng, Yue, why are you here?"

"Brother Yin, Brother Yue, did your evening training end early tonight?"

Man Tianqi and the two of them would meet for late practice every night, because Man Tianqi was coming to pick up Chen'er, so he would leave a little earlier, and sometimes the three of them would pick her up together.

"Something happened in Cheng's house, so we came here." Qiao Yue's face was not very good, and he knew that something was serious at a glance.

"What happened?" Man Tianqi and Xing Chen looked at Yincheng worriedly.

"Yesterday, a high-ranking official came from the capital and escorted a large amount of military pay through Yincheng. My father received them, but when he practiced for that lord this evening, he found that all the official money had disappeared... Now everyone in our family has been arrested. Arrested, my father sent someone to tell me not to go back." Yincheng's expression was gloomy, and his hands were tightly clenched, and it was obvious that he was holding back Shida's anger.

"Cheng, don't worry, we have to think long-term."

The four of them returned to the mansion, and at this time, the old man had already received news that he was waiting for them.

The problem of the Yin Taishou is more serious, it is self-stealing, and it is not an ordinary silver tael, it is a military supply, or an official bank.

"It is said that prefect Yin will be escorted to the capital to be convicted tomorrow. We don't even have time to find a chance to investigate the truth." Old man Man was also very indignant.The Man family and the Yin family have been close friends for many years, and the prefect Yin is also a good person. He doesn't believe that he would do something like steal official money.

"My father was wronged." Yincheng said angrily, "Someone must have framed our Yin family."

"I don't believe that Uncle Yin would do this either." Qiao Yue held Yincheng's hand, and he would always stand by the Yin family's side.

"We all believe it, but it's useless for us to believe it alone." Man Tianqi felt a headache.

They didn't know anything about it, and it happened so suddenly that they didn't know where to start.

If the high officials in the capital dared to arrest everyone in the Yin Mansion like this, they must not be ordinary high officials. When the matter is not clear, they decide to detain them tomorrow, indicating that the matter is urgent, and it will definitely annoy the emperor Longyan angry.
