Chapter 108: Getting Rich
Chu Xiaoyao snorted lightly, strode out of the wing, and said softly, "Love!" ”
A man who was eight points similar to Ruthless, that is, Chu Xiaoyao's guard, suddenly appeared behind Chu Xiaoyao from somewhere.
"Fifteen thousand taels!"
As soon as Chu Xiaoyao came out, he heard that someone had already asked for fifteen thousand taels. He didn't want to help Ling Yiyi raise the steps, he just looked carefully at Ling Yiyi who was leisurely downstairs.
What kind of magic does this woman have, she actually made Lou Baiyu threaten him regardless of the love between the two! I'm afraid that Lou Baiyu didn't sort out his feelings at this time! Friend, who believes? Is she really puzzling?
Ling Yiyi was holding on to the dishes and chopsticks and eating the dishes on the table casually, keenly feeling that a familiar gaze had been surrounding her, and she immediately raised her eyes.
As soon as Chu Xiaoyao saw Ling Yiyi's gaze, he immediately pulled out an innocent smile, and was so cute that he cried the dead, "Sister!" ”
The voice was very small, but it was enough for Ling Yiyi to hear it clearly, Ling Yiyi smiled at the corner of her mouth, withdrew her gaze, lowered her head and continued to eat.
She thought it was a fool Xuanchen, but she didn't expect that it was Chu Xiaoyaonas, who asked people to go to the General's Mansion to ask for relatives and wanted to marry her as his wife.
She pretended to be sick in Yilan Courtyard during this time, except for her younger sisters who came to visit her, and her mother, she had never seen anyone else, let alone Chu Xiaoyao and Xianwang and others.
Ling Yiyi thought about Chu Xiaoyaonas, at this time, she was using her innocent eyes that were almost exactly the same as Xuan Chen's to deceive her, and she was angry.
From the first time Chu Xiaoyao appeared in front of her, she used those eyes that were exactly the same as Xuan Chen, as innocent and lovely as a little white rabbit, to make her mistakenly think that the fool with heavy makeup who was like a ghost in the alley that day was saved from Liu Zhiyun was him Chu Xiaoyao, she knew that he was fake, but she kept pretending not to know that he was fake, even the attendants around Chu Xiaoyao looked almost the same as the ruthless beside Xuan Chen, and his name was ruthless.
Chu Xiaoyao didn't know that Xuan Chen's fool told him when the two of them met for the first time, his name was Xuan Chen, and when they met for the second time, she incarnated as Ling Shaofeng and went to Taigu Mountain to save her father, but she was seriously injured and almost died, it was Xuan Chen's fool who saved herself, and at the same time, she also saw Xuan Chen's true face.
Come to think of it, this Chu Xiaoyao and Xuan Chen must have a very close relationship, but although Xuan Chen was stupid, he didn't tell Chu Xiaoyao about these things, so Chu Xiaoyao still wanted to use Xuan Chen's identity to get close to him at this time, which was really not a trick.
"Twenty thousand taels once, twenty thousand taels two times ......"
Mo Lan's voice broke into the contemplative Ling Yiyi's mind, instantly bringing her back to her senses, looking at the ink bamboo picture of 20,000 taels of silver, she was going to get rich!
"Thirty thousand taels!"
Just before Mo Lan said 20,000 taels or 3 times, before saying that he was going to make a deal, Xia Kucao raised his hand and called out the price of '30,000 taels'.
The corners of Ling Yiyi's mouth hooked, it was really as she guessed, this painting King Xuan must be bought back, how could a man as conceited as him be allowed to be like his shameful Mo Feng Tu and fall into the hands of others, even if the 20,000 taels just now were screamed by Meng Ru, it wouldn't work!
Everyone raised their eyes and saw the son of 30,000 taels, everyone knew him, wasn't it the summer withered grass with King Xuan? The crowd whispered, but no one made any more bids.
Mo Lan glanced at the corners of the young lady's smug eyes, and the corners of her mouth also hooked a faint smile, held the painting high, and said loudly, "That boy bid 30,000 taels, is there a higher price!" Thirty thousand two hundred and twenty one, thirty thousand two and two times, thirty thousand two and three times! Deal! ”
Xia Kucao put the 30,000 taels of silver tickets in the hands of Xiao Si behind him, and asked Xiao Si to go downstairs to get the painting.
Mo Lanyu's hand turned slightly, gently rolled up the ink bamboo drawing, and tied the painting with a rope, at this time, Xiao Si also came to the high platform, Mo Lan took the 30,000 taels of silver tickets and counted them, before handing the painting to Xiao Si, and then raised his feet to Ling Yiyi, who was eating, and handed the silver ticket forward.
Ling Yiyi looked at Mo Lan with a smile, took the silver tickets and put them directly into her arms, and then stood up, "Congratulations to Mr. Xia, let's go!" ”
As soon as Huilan heard this, she immediately put the big red cloak in her hand on Ling Yiyi.
Xiao Si, who took the painting, held the painting in both hands, staggered up to the second floor, walked towards the summer withered grass standing in the corridor, and handed the painting up.
Xia Kucao took the painting, glanced at Ling Yiyi downstairs with an unpredictable expression, and turned around and walked into the Qin Pavilion.
Ling Yiyi stretched out her hand to take the cloak, tied the ribbon of the cloak in front of her, raised a satisfied smile on the corner of her mouth, raised her feet and walked towards the outside of the Fengxue Building.
Tie Lan, Mo Lan and Hui Lan, of course, couldn't stay there anymore, so they immediately strode up, and the four of them strode out of Fengxue Building together.
In the Qin Pavilion, Meng Ru looked at the Xia Kucao that entered with a blushing face, staring at the ink bamboo diagram tightly, wanting to say something, but stopped when he saw King Xuan's sharp gaze.
King Xuan took the painting and didn't stay long, "Go home!" He got up and walked out the door.
Xia Kucao saw King Xuan's appearance at this time, and knew that it was best not to provoke him, so he also raised his heel and went out.
Only Meng Rutian, who was flushed with anger, and his friends who gloated in his eyes were left in the room.
As soon as Ling Yiyi came out of the Fengxue Building, she entered the carriage with the support of Huilan, and the smile on her face turned into an unfathomable cold appearance.
What I heard in the Wind and Snow Building just now, I'm afraid it's true! Her father may have really been guilty of the fold of pleading, and was demoted to the rank of captain of the seventh grade by the emperor's decree.
In the eyes of others, her father is finished, whether in the General's Mansion or the back house, their three-room status has plummeted, and the General's Mansion will be inherited by the third uncle in the future!
However, in her Ling Yiyi's opinion, this may be better, at least, her marriage will not be remembered by those people.
As soon as Tielan and the three of them got into the carriage, they saw Ling Yiyi staring at the wall of the carriage in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking, but she didn't dare to disturb.
Tie Lan gave an order instead of Ling Yiyi, "Go home!" ”
Xiao Lizi whipped the horse, and the carriage slowly headed in the direction of the General's Mansion.
By the time the angry King Xuan strode out of the Fengxue Tower, Ling Yiyi's carriage had long since disappeared.
King Xuan angrily pulled the horse that had already been led out by the guards, held the painting neatly and turned over the horse, his sharp eyes glared at the position of the General's Mansion again, and left with a twitch of the horse's buttocks, "Drive!" ”
Fengxue Building was the place where the news spread the fastest, and in less than a while, the news that General Ling Feng was demoted to the rank of Seventh Rank Lieutenant, and Miss Ling sold paintings for 30,000 taels of silver, quickly spread throughout Sheng'an.
When Ling Yiyi returned to Yilan Garden with Tielan and the others, she heard that the old lady had called the third husband to talk to the front again, and she was afraid that she would hear the news of her father's demotion, and she didn't want to see the third lady.
If it was before, Ling Yiyi would definitely rush to the Meditation Courtyard immediately and kneel down to plead, but now she is already as cold as ice, and she has no expectations for the Third Lady and the General's Mansion, so after returning to the house, she will go to Yilan Courtyard to pretend to be sick.
Why do you get sick? Simple, according to the news from the maid of Yilan Academy, Ling Yiyi was so angry that her heart hurt again by the news that General Ling Feng was demoted, and she was mentally ill and annoyed, and she needed to recuperate.
The old lady and the lady of the few rooms have long been accustomed to Ling Yiyi's illness from time to time, and they only sent people to greet them, and they didn't send anything more ginseng supplements.
People like Ling Yiyi who are sick from time to time, every time they send supplements, then their purses will definitely be as thin as pieces of paper.
Besides, didn't Ling Yiyi just get 30,000 taels of silver? I didn't see her honoring her grandmother and mother, nor did I see her giving points to her sisters.
As soon as Ling Yiyi was sick, they didn't want to ask for it blatantly, they could only secretly hate it in their hearts.
