Chapter 279 And Ji Li (1)
Another dusk fell, and in a blink of an eye, Shangguan Ning had already woken up for half a month, and there were still three or four days before the ascension ceremony. Ziyu, who had gone out before, returned to the Ningyu Pavilion in the evening, followed by a man dressed as a servant .

"Miss, the things have been brought back."

Ziyu directed the boy to put the things in the middle of the room. The boy had to put a lot of effort into carefully placing the huge thing in place. Shangguan Ning saw that the boy was only thirteen or fourteen years old, not tall and a little thin. So she asked Le'er to take a piece of silver as a reward for the boy.

The object in the middle of the room was about the same height as Shangguan Ning, but it was slender. It was wrapped in a layer of red silk cloth, and the outside of the silk cloth was tightly tied with countless straw ropes. Through the silk cloth, Shangguan Ning really couldn't guess. Take out the items inside.

In the end, the three little girls, Ziyu, Yuyu, and Shangleer, tossed and tossed for a while with their hands and feet before they untied the straw rope outside the red silk and fell off, and as the straw rope was untied, the red silk cloth also slowly fell off. , the objects inside finally revealed their true colors.

A red and blue coral tree.

Dayong is located inland, with many mountains and plains, few seas and few rivers, so shrimps, crabs and shellfish are rare and even pearls are very rare. Ornaments like corals are even more precious. If ordinary wealthy people have a string or two Coral bead jewelry is enviable. If you can have a coral ornament in your home, it will definitely be a bright thing.

Shangguan Ning is the concubine of the Shangguan Mansion. She has a special status and bears the mysterious prophecy of Mrs. Shichen. She has seen many rare treasures since she was a child. It was the first time Shangguan Ning had seen a tall coral tree, and it was also a two-color coral tree.

The three little girls had been stunned for a long time, their eyeballs fell on the coral tree and they couldn't be pulled out. No wonder they were so surprised. If they hadn't been serving as servants in a family like Shangguan Mansion, they might have I have never seen such a rare treasure in my life.

"Miss, this... what kind of treasure is this?"

Yu Yu was the first to hold back, and opened her mouth nana, but her eyes still did not move away from the coral.

"It's a coral tree."

"Is this a tree? Where is the root? Can it grow leaves and bloom?"

"You silly girl, the coral tree is not a tree, but a decoration."

After all, Ziyu is older and has done errands in the big study, so her vision is wider than that of Le'er and Congyu. Even though it is the first time she saw it, she probably read it in a book before.

"Not a tree? Then why is it called a tree?"

Shangguan Ning couldn't help laughing at Yungyu's silly look and childish questions, and felt more and more that Yungyu was a well-deserved treasure in her yard.

"Coral is a shell secreted by a small insect in the sea in the far west. After being soaked in sea water for many years, it becomes what you see outside. It is called a coral tree because it looks like a tree, but it is not. A tree is like a snail we call a snail but it's not a cow."

Confused, she only understood the word "worm" in Shangguan Ning's words. When she thought that the beautiful thing in front of her was changed by a worm, she immediately felt that the coral tree had lost the beauty it had at the beginning. And a little scary.

Although Le'er didn't want to react so strongly to Yunyu, she still had a hard time accepting the cause of the coral, and her eyes on the coral tree were not as enthusiastic as before.

Only Ziyu has always been calm and quiet, neither was she so excited at the beginning after listening to Shangguan Ning's words, nor did she lose interest in an instant like Congyu and Le'er. Among the girls, Ziyu is really the safest To be sure, Shangguan Ning hoped that Ziyu would be a girl who would be devoted to her, but the last time Cici showed her face to the fan hairpin, it was still difficult for Shangguan Ning to let go.
