Chapter 81 The News Comes
"You're right." Mrs. Kang said this, but she was still worried in her heart. Mrs. Shi's mouth has always been unforgiving. His master is still in prison, and she will seize the opportunity when the time comes. , can you humiliate Mu Qingwan without thinking of a way?But receiving nobles is a task assigned by the Yamen, and it is impossible to avoid it...

When the mother and daughter returned home, Luo Kui, who was in front of Aunt Luo, came up to meet her, saying that Aunt Luo wanted to go back to the countryside for a few days, and dragged the Kang family away.Mu Qingwan went back to the West Chamber, and Jinyu then brought tea stewed with rock sugar and pears, and said: "Third Miss, Young Master Nie is back. I'm waiting to see you. I want to come back to work in the afternoon."

Nie Tai'an and Wan Ren are back?Mu Qingwan was overjoyed for a while, and hurriedly said: "He is hardworking, and he just came back from seeking medical treatment for his mother, and he just wanted to come back to work as an errand, no matter, you go and ask him to come in, and I will ask him about his situation. They are all neighbors, so they should Take care."

Jinyu takes the order to go out.

Mu Qingwan said to Lingxiu and Lingxin again: "Go down and rest, I will call you when I go out."

The two responded and backed out.

Soon, Jinyu brought Nie Tai'an and Wan Ren in. The two of them looked like they had hurried on their way, and Mu Qingwan hurriedly asked Jinyu to bring over a bowl of fruit herbal tea for each of them. say.

After drinking herbal tea, Nie Tai'an sat on the chair, and Wan Ren sat on the stool. Mu Qingwan asked, "Is this trip going well?"

Nie Tai'an is the young master, so Mu Qingwan was naturally the one who asked the question, but he was stupid, so Wan Ren naturally answered, "Back to the third girl, this trip went very smoothly, and I have found out everything that should be inquired about. And you did not expect it wrong." , your third uncle is indeed pretending to be sick, and their purpose is actually for you!" As he spoke, he succinctly explained everything he had heard from the beginning to the end, and left the previous bank note intact. The land was returned to Mu Qingwan.

It turns out that Mu Laosan's pretending to be ill this time was Shi Tianci's idea. They planned to find someone to pretend to be the jade pendant, and after the jade pendant got it, they lied that the jade pendant could save Mu Laosan, but the condition was that Mu Qingwan must be betrothed. give him.

After Wan Ren finished speaking, he added: "Although we don't know who the person who came to claim the jade pendant is, but from their tone, it must be no better than a gangster on the street; and this person has signed an agreement with Shi Tianci. He married you, and gave Shi Tianci two-thirds of the dowry."

Godsend!He has really figured out Mu Changguang's phoenix man's psychology. Let Mu Laosan be "critically ill" first, and then let people come to offer advice. He would be willing to sell him as a concubine.As Mu Qingwan listened, her eyes darkened, and her hands unconsciously clenched the armrests of the chair.

While she was immersed in anger, Wan Ren turned his head to the side, quickly exchanged glances with Nie Tai'an, and then said to Mu Qingwan: "Third Miss, in my humble opinion, you can't leave this jade pendant to them." Pretend to take it away, otherwise when the real owner comes to the door, what will you do with it?"

This is true, Wan Ren was very thoughtful, Mu Qingwan thought about it, and said: "Then I will have to trouble you to help me get the jade pendant back. As for how to seize it..."

Wan Ren immediately patted his chest and assured: "Third Miss, don't worry, don't say that our young master is working in your house, even if our two families have been neighbors for many years, we will not just stand by and watch you being plotted by thieves. If you need anything Where to help, just tell us, we will do our best to help you through this difficult time!"

Mu Qingwan was very moved when she heard this, she hurriedly stood up to thank him and Nie Taian, and said: "I really need your help with this matter, because the solution is actually not difficult, but with me and a few maids in this room, it can be done no matter what." It's okay."

"Miss San already has a solution?" Wan Ren seemed even more excited than she was, almost eager to prepare.

Mu Qingwan nodded, walked up to him and Nie Tai'an, and whispered her plan.

After hearing this, Wan Ren was surprised and said, "It turns out that it's not difficult to escape, the third girl is a good plan!"

Mu Qingwan was a little worried: "Your young master has to take care of this matter, but he..." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Nie Tai'an, seeing him playing with the teacup on his own, as if he didn't listen at all, and endured it. I couldn't help but sighed -- I'm a fool after all, can I entrust him with a heavy responsibility?
Wan Ren saw her worries, and said with a smile: "If my young master is asked to do other things, I am as worried as the third girl, but I can guarantee that I will do this. Our young master has been naughty since he was a child, such as It’s better than me to get rid of roof tiles on a house.”

real?Mu Qingwan let out a chuckle: "His kung fu was trained by Shangfang Jiewa, right?"

It was much more difficult than that, Wan Ren said silently and nodded emphatically.

Nie Tai'an heard them talking about going up to the roof tiles, and raised his head and smiled at Mu Qingwan. Mu Qingwan was worried and asked him to repeat what he had just said, but Nie Tai'an didn't want to say it. Mu Qingwan felt a little relieved when she said that she was inseparable. Anyway, she will follow when the time comes, and just remind her again on the way.

After finishing speaking, Wan Ren took his leave. Mu Qingwan sent them to the door of the room and thanked them again and again. Then she looked at their backs and was filled with emotion. She never expected that after traveling to this ghost place, they would help her a lot. It will be the master and servant of the Nie family who is rarely mentioned in the timeline. Perhaps, since the time when she ran into Nie Tai'an in the kitchen, the wheel of fate has already deviated from the established track.

Wan Ren took Nie Tai'an out of the gate of Mu's house, and returned home along the alley. Hu Po, who had been waiting in the living room, immediately came forward to greet her, but before she could speak, Wan Ren pulled Nie Tai'an away. Entering the room, he hurriedly said, "Master, why did you choose to tell the truth to the third girl? We finally waited for the chance to get the jade pendant back!"

Have a chance to get the jade pendant back?Then they are really going back to the capital?Amber, who followed in, was happy and disappointed at the same time when she heard this, she interjected and asked, "Have you found the location of the jade pendant?"

Wan Ren said: "In the past few days, someone will go to Mu's house to claim the jade pendant. When he gets the jade pendant, we will quietly follow and wait for the opportunity to get it back. Isn't that all right?"

"Will someone go to Mu's house to claim the jade pendant? Who is it? The person you invited?" Amber asked in surprise.

"Yangxing County has an eyeliner in the capital, how dare we rashly ask someone to pretend to claim it, if the person in the capital finds out, I'm afraid something will happen." Wan Ren said, "It's the thief who stole our jade pendant. , I want to harm the third girl, so I resorted to such a dirty trick."

After hearing what he said, Amber rationalized her thoughts, and said righteously: "Since someone is going to harm the third girl, of course you have to tell her the truth. Don't you want to watch her being deceived?!"

Hu Po is a person who is devoted to Nie Tai'an and never cares about the safety of others. She is talking like this now, but she just doesn't want them to get back the jade pendant and return to the capital.Wan Ren's eyes dimmed, and he turned his face away with a different feeling in his heart.

While they were talking, the person in charge of this matter, Nie Tai'an, had already taken off his shoes, put on clean clothes, climbed into bed and lay down.When Wan Ren turned his face away, he happened to see it and shouted angrily, "Master!"

Nie Tai'an yawned, and lazily said: "Even if we tell the third girl, we still want to get the jade pendant back."

"Can it be the same?!" Wan Ren became even more anxious, "The third girl asked us to take the jade pendant now, and we have to give it back to her after we get it!!!"

"You can choose not to pay it back..." Nie Tai'an yawned again, put his arms behind his head as a pillow, and closed his eyes.

"Master!"

Wan Ren began to walk on the verge of panic, but Hu Po pulled him out, and said bluntly: "I have already told the third girl, can I still go back on my word? Get out quickly, and don't disturb the young master's rest."

Wan Ren refused, but was pulled by his sleeves, so he had no choice but to go out.

Hu Po closed the door, turned around and fanned Nie Tai'an, and complained, "This Wan Ren is too big or small."

Nie Tai'an opened his eyes and smiled: "I have been wandering outside for so many years, and you are the only ones who accompany me. I have already regarded you as my own family. What do you need?" He said that he refused to tell the third girl the truth, but just now he patted his chest in front of the third girl and said that he would help, and he even gave a guarantee! He just said what he meant! Or... he was afraid that I would not be able to figure it out, so He did it on purpose, in fact, he was overthinking, there are many opportunities to get the jade pendant back, so why bother to sacrifice the lifelong happiness of the third girl."

It's just "there are many opportunities to get the jade pendant back", not "it doesn't matter if you don't get it back"... In this way, he is determined to go back to the capital... Hu Po thought about it, her eyes were sore, but this At that time Nie Tai'an chased her away again, not wanting her to play the fan, she couldn't bear it any longer, burst into tears, got up and ran out.

"It's fine, why are you crying all of a sudden?" Nie Tai'an shook his head and called Wan Ren loudly, telling him to seize the opportunity to coax Hu Po.

Wan Ren responded with a wry smile, and went after Hu Po.

After two days, it started to fall into ambush, and the weather became hotter and hotter. In the small courtyard of the Mu family, they were busy sprinkling water to cool down and remove the annoying cicadas from the trees.Mu Changguang got ice from nowhere, filled a large basin, and put it in the hall, and everyone gathered around to get some cool air.Aunt Luo had gone to the countryside, Tian Sanniang was standing behind Kang, holding her shoulders; Mu Qinglian was sitting closest to the ice basin, she just jumped up and hugged her, she really didn't look like a lady, and made Kang frowned. He frowned several times.

In the small Yangxing County, ice cubes are really rare in summer. While thinking about whether she could make some shaved ice, Mu Qingwan asked Kang's curiously: "Mother, didn't daddy transport some of this ice to the countryside?"

Kang said: "Why didn't it work, but it melted before it arrived, so it didn't make it. Besides, there are many trees and ponds in the countryside, which are much cooler than the city, and you can live without ice."

It turned out to be like this, she said, such good things, how could Mu Changguang lose them.Mu Qingwan glanced at the ice basin, and asked again: "Mom, are these ices made of raw water?" If they were made with unclean water, then you can't make shaved ice, and you might have diarrhea...

This ice does not belong to their family, how does the Kang family know this, just about to answer that they don't know, but Xiao Cui'er hurried in and said: "Ma'am, the jade pendant at the door is called for notice, someone has taken it off !"
