Chapter 45
If Li Yueniang really wanted to go, she would have to accompany her, Mu Qingwan nodded and thanked him for the invitation.
Bai Yusong seemed to have discovered Mu Qinglian just now, so he hurriedly invited her again.Mu Qinglian was thinking about how to ask for more things later, but she didn't care, she just nodded casually.
After speaking, Kang took Mu Qingwan, Mu Qinglian and Li Yueniang to the opposite store.Bai Yusong stood on tiptoe and patted Nie Tai'an on the shoulder: "Let's go too." He said with a smile: "You are too tall, so every time I pat your shoulder, I have to stand on tiptoe."
Nie Taian grinned and laughed.
Really a fool who only laughs?Bai Yusong was a little disappointed, but thinking about the situation that day, he would never miss it, so he became confused again, pulled Nie Tai'an and asked, "Who did you learn your kung fu from?"
Nie Tai'an looked at him with a puzzled face, as if he was thinking about what Kung Fu is.
But Bai Yusong punched him in the chest and said, "Stop coaxing me. When Ms. Li died that day, I could see clearly that you were the one who jumped to save people from the other side! That's right! People not only look exactly like you, but even their clothes, shoes and socks are the same!"
Nie Tai'an looked at him, blinked, then suddenly raised his hand and waved his fist.
Bai Yusong thought for a while and asked, "You know how to fight, but don't you know it's kung fu?"
Nie Tai'an also thought about it and nodded.
Bai Yusong was surprised: "Is there such a thing?" He stood on tiptoe again, put his arms around Nie Tai'an's shoulders, and said, "Follow me home, let's make gestures and see who His skill is high."
Nie Tai'an waved his hand and said, "My mother is waiting for me to eat."
Bai Yusong had inquired about him a long time ago, and knew that there was a long-term bedridden mother in his family. He heard that it was not easy to force an invitation, so he could only say: "Then let's make an appointment at another day, and I will send someone to take you back first."
Nie Tai'an shook his head, removed his hand on his shoulder, moved his long legs, and blended into the crowd in a blink of an eye, out of sight. "That's right. With his kung fu, he might be invincible in Yangxing County. Anyway, I'll send someone to send him off." Bai Yusong laughed at himself, and decided to go home immediately and practice boxing again.
Like a loach, Nie Tai'an walked through the crowded streets, into the alleys, passed by the small courtyard of the Mu family with a guard at the gate, and returned to his home at the end of the alley.As soon as he entered the door, he called Wan Ren out and cursed: "It's you who told me to wear this outfit to go out, causing me to be recognized by the eldest son of the Bai family!"
Wan Ren went to close the door, and argued aggrievedly: "Master, you only have this set of clothes without patches, which can be passed on to others. I won't let you wear this set, so why should I let you wear it?"
Nie Tai'an flew onto the bed, spread out into big characters, and lamented: "I'd rather go out in rags, that way I can deny one or two things."
Wan Ren followed in, and asked worriedly, "He didn't see through the young master, did he?"
Nie Tai'an glared at him: "Your young master, I'm good at pretending to be stupid. How could I be seen through? It's just that he invited me to his house to compete in kung fu. Although I escaped today, we all live in the same county. There is always a chance of being caught by him, but what should I do?"
This... Wan Ren couldn't think of any good idea, so he could only comfort him: "Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover, maybe before he comes to invite again, we have already found the jade pendant and returned to the capital."
Speaking of the jade pendant, Nie Tai'an was even more troubled, saying: "I went to the main room of Mu's house several times in the dark, but I just couldn't find it."
Wan Ren guessed, "Could it be that you're not in the main room at all?"
"Not in the main room, where else?" Nie Tai'an asked doubtfully.
The two were talking, Hu Po came back from work, and when she heard what they said, she carefully looked at Nie Tai'an's face, and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter if we can't find it. We have been hiding in Yangxing County for so many years. Yupei didn't go back to the capital, and nothing happened."
As soon as the words were finished, Nie Tai'an rolled her eyes. Nie Tai'an turned over and sat up from the bed, scolding her: "Every now and then, night walkers come to spy on her. Wan Ren and I took turns to fight, and we managed to survive until now. You just don't know!"
And this thing? !On the other side of the capital, have you really never given up chasing and killing them? !Amber was stunned.
Nie Tai'an smiled wryly: "Now I am the only one in our branch. How could she let me go? It's just that she didn't dare to make a big fuss anymore and changed it to an assassination."
In this way, it is a foregone conclusion to return to the capital, only sooner or later?If so, she really hoped that the jade pendant could be found later. Although the assassination is worrying, but if she returns to the capital, she will be under the nose of that person.Amber thought silently, lowering her eyelids.
Wan Ren watched the changes in her expression, guessed what she was thinking, and fell silent.
Nie Tai'an looked at them and sighed: "I know, whether you return to Beijing or not, you will not have a good life, so you don't have to follow me to the danger, just take my mother and go away."
"That's impossible!" Wan Ren and Hu Po raised their heads and retorted in unison.
"Since you refuse to leave, then help me think carefully about how to deal with the Bai family's invitation, and how to get back that jade pendant!" Nie Tai'an jumped off the bed and yelled into their ears.
Their young master really couldn't say anything provocative and tearful... Wan Ren and Hu Po bowed their heads silently again.
Nie Tai'an walked around the house a few times, stopped suddenly, and asked them: "In times of crisis, people always take out the most valuable and most important things and move them, don't they?"
Wan Ren had a bad feeling and quickly asked, "Young master, don't you want to set fire to it?"
"I'm not a villain, so why set fire to it?" Nie Tai'an rolled his eyes at him, "I'll go to the main room of Mu's house tonight, steal something, and see how Mrs. Kang will react."
"This idea makes sense." Wan Ren nodded.
Hu Po hurriedly told Nie Tai'an, "Master, don't steal too expensive things, their family is a good person."
"Forget it, let's go cook." Nie Tai'an fell back and lay back on the bed.
Amber took two steps towards the outside, thought for a while, then turned around again, helped him cover the quilt, and then backed out again.Wan Ren watched her silently from the side, opened his mouth to speak several times, but in the end he didn't say anything, just sighed deeply.
On the bustling street, Mu Qingwan and the others were still strolling.Walking around from store to store, the things are almost bought. In fact, because Aunt Luo didn't open an order this time, and no one was there, the task load was reduced by at least half.In the end, when they visited a jewelry store, Mu Qinglian wanted to repeat the old trick, pointing to a pair of necklaces in the counter, and said to Kang: "Auntie, look at that style, it just fits into a pair with my earrings."
But the Kang family did not answer immediately, but looked at Mu Qingwan - this is what Mu Qingwan had agreed with her a long time ago, since the matter of purchasing supplies has been handed over to her, everything that involves shopping will be left to her. Let her handle it.
When Mu Qinglian saw that Kang did not readily agree as before, but looked at Mu Qingwan, her heart skipped a beat.But after looking at the collar, Mu Qingwan actually nodded her head and said, "The color and style of this necklace really match the fourth sister's earrings, why don't you just buy it."
She is so good?Is the sun coming out in the west?Mu Qinglian couldn't believe her ears, but the shopkeeper of the jewelry store, under Mu Qingwan's signal, had already taken out the collar and started to pack it, so she couldn't help but not believe it.
The Mu family were regular customers of the jewelry store, and the shopkeeper knew them. While making collars, he praised Kang and Mu Qingwan for treating orphan girls well. They are really good people.
It turned out that Mu Qingwan was trying to gain a good reputation, Mu Qinglian calmed down, looked at the collar, and was very happy.But Mu Qingwan was amazing, she had been taught before, and she didn't dare to ask for another thing. After buying the items on the list, she obediently went home with Kang and the others.
Mu Qingwan looked at the smug smile on her face, and secretly smiled too. When she knew that the money for this circle had to be paid by herself, what kind of expression would she have?
Back home, the Kang family opened the warehouse, helped Mu Qingwan put all the things she bought in, and registered them in the book. From now on, no matter who is in the Mu family, no matter who they want to use, they will get it from her. Come and get it.
After lunch, Mu Changguang actually came back. Kang hurriedly brought him tea, and asked him worriedly: "Master, why did you come back so early? But what happened?"
Mu Changguang drank the tea in one go, and said, "It is said that a nobleman from the capital is coming, so let us make preparations everywhere."
Since it was necessary to prepare, he had to stay in the yamen to check the previous documents to see if there were any mistakes. Why did he come home, Kang was still puzzled.
Mu Changguang seemed to be in a good mood. Before Kang could ask questions, he took the initiative to explain: "Those nobles are not here to inspect the work, but to visit the mountains and rivers. We just need to take good care of them." Leaving her and Mu Qingwan behind, he said: "You also have to be prepared. It is said that among those nobles, there are female family members, and the magistrate's wife has not come to take up the post. It is not certain that you will be accompanied by then."
This is... a social event?Mu Qingwan thought for a while and asked, "Father, when will those noble people come?"
Mu Changguang waved his hand and said, "It's early, at least two months."
It's still a month, a full sixty days, so why are they in such a hurry?Mu Qingwan was speechless.
But Mu Changguang said: "There are rewards for serving the nobles well! The residences in the city and the Zhuangzi outside the city can't be careless! Two months, we still think it's too little. By the way, the county magistrate has It has been preliminarily decided that the Zhuangzi outside the city will use the Bai family's house, and the house in the city will use the one in the east of our house. Whenever you have free time, go over and see what things should be added and what should be subtracted. Think about it, don't save me money."
The Kang family was entrusted with an important task, and they bowed and responded with sincerity and fear.
