The ultimate rebirth of the abandoned woman

Chapter 726 The villain wins
I saw the maid holding a red lacquered mother-of-pearl flat square box in both hands, the box was about two feet long and eight inches wide, the lid of the box had been opened, revealing the contents inside——

A bright apricot-yellow silk was spread on the bottom of the box, and on the silk was a pair of well-crafted and exquisitely shaped firecrackers.

Xiao Nan recognized this thing, it was exactly two months ago that she ordered someone to send it to Shanzhou.

The seventh day of April is Cui Youbo's 30th birthday, which is considered to be a whole birthday, but it's a pity that Xiao Nan and a few children cannot celebrate his birthday because he is thousands of miles away.

Even the birthday present was prepared early and ordered to be delivered in advance.

As for what to choose as a birthday gift, Xiao Nan also spent a lot of thought.

When the firearms were just 'developed' before, Xiao Nan sent a batch to Cui Youbo, but in order not to make people suspicious, all the firearms she gave were the 'Datang Edition' made by the firearms workshop, with simple performance and excellent workmanship. Far from being as sophisticated as later generations.

Xiao Nan felt sorry for Cui Youbo, the firecrackers given to Li Rong back then were much better than those given to Cui Youbo.

Alas, Li Rong is just a relative of her family who made several detours, but Uncle Cui is her man after all, no matter how you look at this matter, Xiao Nan did not act kindly.

At that time, the Wu family had not yet appeared, and there were no rumors in Beijing, Xiao Nan's feelings for Cui Youbo were still in a delicate state of waiting to be seen.

In addition, Hanmo, who followed Cui Youbo to the post, often sent back messages saying that Mr. Lang was very good in Shanzhou and did not mess around with flowers.

Xiao Nan was very satisfied, it happened that Lingxi and Changsheng were busy preparing a birthday gift for her father, she also became interested, so she bought a lance from Xiao Hui.

At that time, Xiao Nan specifically asked for the best.

The two sisters had 'traded' several times, and they were both tacit about certain things, so Xiao Hui readily bought Xiao Nan a firecracker that was safer, more refined, and more powerful than the previous one.

When the goods were delivered to Xiao Nan, she couldn't help admiring, even though she was well-informed, it was the first time she had seen such a delicate and high-performance Lianzhu firecracker.

The whole body of the firecracker is forged from high-quality fine iron. The head of the gun is inlaid with silver pieces, and the silver pieces are engraved with exquisite patterns.

The butt is made of premium tiger spot wood, with moiré flowers and birds engraved on both sides.

This renju gun is more like a work of art than a weapon.

Xiao Nan held it in her hand, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it. In order to show that it was specially given to Uncle Cui, she specially hired a carpenter with excellent craftsmanship from the general supervisor, and asked him to engrave her own handwriting on the stock of the gun. The two small seal characters of 'Su Chun'.

Xiao Nan's calligraphy is very good, and the carpenter's craftsmanship is also superb, the two characters match the original cloud pattern very well, if you don't look carefully, you may think that these two characters are also decorative patterns.

Xiao Nan can proudly say that this renju gun is absolutely unique in Datang.Therefore, even at a distance of ten steps, she still recognized it at a glance.

She took a few steps forward, squinted her eyes, looked at it carefully, confirmed it again, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Wu, why did this thing fall into your hand?"

Cui Youbo gave it to the Wu family?
impossible.

When Mrs. Wu was packaged and sent back to the capital by Cui Youbo, the person Xiao Nan sent to give the birthday present probably hadn't arrived yet.

After Cui Youbo received it, he liked it very much, so he wrote a reply letter to Xiao Nan on the same day, and asked Mrs. Xue to send it back directly.

It took only three or two days for Xiao Nan to receive the reply before the Wu family arrived in the capital.

It is impossible for Wu to get the renju gun.

But, but the problem is, the thing is in Wu's hands, what's going on?

Is it—

Just when Xiao Nan was thinking wildly, Wu's voice came over again, "Hehe, of course it was given to me by Mr. Lang!"

"impossible!"

Xiao Nan didn't even think about it, and blurted out: "Lang Jun loves this thing so much, why would he give it away so easily?"

Besides, Cui Youbo is not the stupid Yulang who broke out of the second middle school disease back then, and would pass on the gifts his wife gave him to his concubine.

Also, Uncle Cui had doubts about who the Wu family was, otherwise he would not have sent her back to Beijing, let alone prepared a disguised Mrs. Hu in advance to pretend to be her.

All of this shows that Cui Youbo is very wary of Wu Shi, even if it is to numb her, he will only give her some gold and silver brocades, and will never give her anything he loves.

In the end what happened?Could it be that something happened to Cui Youbo?

Xiao Nan frowned, and various bad guesses flashed in his mind.

"Chuck~"

Wu Shi covered her mouth and smiled lightly, her brows and eyes were full of complacency, she took two steps forward, making a gesture to get closer to Xiao Nan.

With Red Flower and Red Banana as attendants, how could they allow a dangerous person to approach their master?

And after listening to the conversation between Xiao Nan and Wu Shi just now, Honghua already knew that Madam didn't look blind that day, but that she, a bodyguard, had a rusty brain and was slow to react, so she didn't realize that someone was peeping.

How remiss!

Thanks to her self-confidence at the time, Hong Hua at this moment wished she could die in shame.

With this state of mind, Hong Hua paid more and more attention to Xiao Nan's safety. The handle of the horizontal knife at her waist was already in the palm of her hand, and a small part of the sharp blade was exposed. One step forward, shoot to kill' posture.

Wu Shi swallowed his saliva, hating secretly in his heart, but he took a step back obediently, curled his lips, and said: "Tsk tsk, lady, you don't have to do this, I only have a few maids with me, and they are all hands. A weak woman with no strength to restrain a chicken, why do you—"

After finishing speaking, Wu Shi looked left and right again, pretending to be mysterious and said: "Besides, what I want to say is an important secret, and it would be bad for outsiders to hear it."

"Hey, pretend to be a ghost!"

Xiao Nan snorted coldly, and waved his hand lightly, signaling that Honghua and the others don't need to worry.

Hong Hua slowly let go of the handle holding the knife, and with a clang, the precious knife was sheathed, she still looked at Wu Shi warily, and took half a step back to one side.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wu smiled triumphantly, took two steps forward, and deliberately threw her a provocative look when passing by Honghua.

Walking up to Xiao Nan, Wu said in a low voice: "Perhaps you don't know, my lady, our husband has quietly returned to Beijing!"

A look of surprise flashed in Xiao Nan's eyes.

What, Uncle Cui has returned to Beijing?Just recently?
While speaking, Wu secretly glanced at Xiao Nan's face, seeing her surprised expression, she felt more proud, and continued: "Lang Jun has an important task when he comes back this time, hehe, he didn't inform anyone, just Quietly told my concubine."

As he said that, Wu Shi turned his head and tapped the gun with his chin, "And this firearm was given to my concubine by the gentleman himself. The gentleman said that he has something important to tell the concubine to do. A firearm is for the concubine to use for self-defense. Hee hee~~"

Seeing Xiao Nan's eyebrows almost knit together, Mrs. Wu felt extremely refreshed. At the end, she couldn't help but chuckled.

only--

"Crack~"

A crisp slap sounded like a switch on a remote control, instantly shutting off Wu's laughter.

Wu Shi covered his right face, his eyes were wide open, and he screamed in disbelief: "You, you dare to hit me?"

"Cut~"

Xiao Nan sneered, shook his palm lightly, and said disdainfully: "I am a lady, you are a concubine, why do you think I can't beat you?"

"..." Wu choked, even though she had broken up with Xiao Nan now, there were still some things she couldn't get around.Especially now that they are not in an empty secret room, but in the empty Da Ci'en Temple.

There seems to be no one around, but who can guarantee that there will be no outsiders peeping in those lush forests?

In addition, there are monks in the temple. Although Princess Ping An said that arrangements have been made, the nominal abbot has gone to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda to sort out Buddhist scriptures. Now it is her own people who handle the affairs of the temple.

But even so, as a concubine of the Wu family, she couldn't just kill the mistress.

So, facing Xiao Nan's insult now, Wu could only hold his nose and admit it.

Xiao Nan said again: "Also, you lowly servant girl is talking nonsense, and now you dare to slander the Lord, you should be beaten even more."

Cui Youbo is an assassin who was released to the outside world. He entered Beijing without official business and without an order. This is a violation of the regulations. If someone finds out, he will be impeached by the censor at the least, and punished by the saint at worst.

"Hmph, why is this concubine just talking nonsense? Don't you allow me to know about things my wife doesn't know?"

Wu Shi took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his chest, and continued: "The matter of the gentleman is absolutely true, the lady insists on not believing it, and the concubine can't do it."

"Okay, don't talk about this matter again. Also, since you have come to Daci'en Temple, then abide by the rules and stay there, and don't do anything that insults the Cui family's style,"

Xiao Nan said that she didn't believe it, but she still felt suspicious in her heart. She waved her hand impatiently, and said: "You go back, I still have something to do!"

After all, Xiao Nan didn't look at her, he turned around and prepared to go back to the small courtyard.

Just as Wu Shi thought, the relationship between Xiao Nan and Wu Shi has broken down, but it's not time to turn their faces completely.

In the case of the poisoning of the saint, Xiao Nan brought the fake Wu family into the palace, and because of the testimony of the 'Wu family', he was completely cleared of the 'crime'. No matter what everyone thinks about this matter, on the surface, the Wu family She is still the good concubine of the Cui family, and she is still a kind and obedient concubine.

Therefore, Xiao Nan can't 'deal with' Wu Shi immediately, and now that he suddenly sees her, he can't shout and kill her.

The only thing that can be done now is to still treat Mrs. Wu as an ordinary concubine. After staying for a while, Xiao Nan can think of a way to make Mrs. Wu 'die of illness'.

It's a pity that the Wu family doesn't think so.

Seeing that Xiao Nan was about to leave, she quickly took a few steps forward, blocking Xiao Nan's approach.

Xiao Nan frowned, and was about to reprimand him.

Wu's face lowered, and he pretended to be majestic and read out: "According to the order of the saint, Mrs. Qi will chant scriptures and pray for the Empress Dowager Xian Wende in Da Ci'en Temple. Princess Ping An will be responsible for all matters in the temple—"

After reading, Mrs. Wu changed her expression again, and said with a smile: "Princess Ping'an has a lot of affairs, so I leave this matter to my concubine... Hehe, lady, I will wrong you next time, and I have to listen to everything." The concubine's arrangement..."

PS: Alas, the big aunt and the like are the most annoying!
