Chapter 121: Conspiracy (2nd Update)

An Ruolan blinked, and didn't understand the meaning of her mother's words for a while.

Did she do something "ungrateful"?

After thinking carefully about what he said after entering the house, there seems to be only one sentence related to An Ruoxian?

If Sister Xian is really curious, then hurry to Yirong Yuan to take a look, while Grandmother has not yet sent things to the storehouse - is there anything wrong with this sentence?

She was puzzled, and thought that her mother was used to imposing charges on herself, so she had an idea and shouted happily: "That's right, in order to thank Sister Xian for taking care of her mother for her daughter, her daughter specially prepared a gift for Sister Xian!" ”

Since her mother alluded to her ingratitude, shouldn't she be grateful to Dade?

As she spoke, she pretended to rummage through her body, and then looked for her and said in surprise: "Hey, why don't you see it?" I remember putting it in my pocket, but where did I go? ”

Meng Shi choked in his throat in one breath, and the prepared reprimand could not be spoken.

However, in the next second, seeing An Ruolan rummaging left and right, but she couldn't find the so-called gift, she immediately found an excuse again, but just as she was about to speak, An Ruolan suddenly shouted: "Ah! I remember! ”

The words that were about to be exported were blocked back into his stomach again, and Meng Shi's eyes widened, and there was nowhere to go.

In order to save herself, An Ruolan had no choice but to ignore her mother's aggrieved look, scratched the back of her head, and said with a smile: "I just went back to the room to change my clothes, and I forgot to take out the gift, I said why I couldn't find it." ”

He winked playfully again, and said with a smile: "My daughter will go and get it, and there is a gift specially prepared for her mother, and my daughter will retire first!" ”

Without waiting for the Meng family to react, she was blessed and rushed out.

"......" Meng Shi opened his mouth, and his face was blue.

An Ruoxian twitched the corners of her mouth and scolded in her heart: "Slut, you just pretend!" ”

Xue didn't speak from beginning to end, but she could see more clearly than An Ruoxian and Meng how smart and clever An Ruolan was.

An Ruolan slipped away and did not return to Xinyue Garden.

She saw that her mother was showing signs of anger, so naturally it was impossible to go to scold her again.

After returning to Yirong Garden, she took a few pearl flowers with rice grains and pearls as a thank you gift for An Ruoxian, and then picked a pair of Dongzhu earrings and two agate hair combs, which were considered gifts to Meng's family.

When Mama Qin arrived at Xinyue Garden, she said that Miss Six was called by the old lady and asked her to bring gifts on her behalf.

She was the one given to An Ruolan by the old lady, and Meng naturally didn't dare to be embarrassed, so she accepted the things and sent her away.

An Ruolan knew Meng's preferences very well, and the gifts she chose were very popular with Meng's heart, so that as soon as Meng's heart saw the gift she gave, the resentment in her heart immediately disappeared.

As for An Ruoxian, although the round and smooth pearl flowers are very beautiful, she still thinks that An Ruolan is too stingy, and she is determined to make An Ruolan more generous in the future.

Even gave gifts to An Ruoxian, and the other sisters in the house naturally couldn't be missing, but An Ruolan didn't plan to pick among the things she brought back, she planned to go out of the house in a few days and personally choose gifts for the sisters.

And before that, she had to serve her mother's illness.

*****

An Ruoxian was finally free, and after reporting to the Meng family, she went out with two maids.

The Xue family has been in the Hou Mansion for such a period of time, not to mention more, a few subordinates can still be bought, and this time An Ruoxian took the maid out of the house was arranged by her.

The Xue family has three brothers, now two are working in Shengjing, one is in his hometown, and Xue Da and Xue San are in Shengjing, one has been studying for a few years, and is now working as a staff member in the noble mansion, and the other is doing some small livelihood, both of them are waiting for the Xue family to gain a firm foothold in the Hou Mansion so as to provide them with resources.

It was Xue San who was doing business, and he opened a grocery store on Lianhuafang Street in the south of the city, because it was adjacent to the teahouse, it was very convenient to find out the news. In addition to managing business, Xue San often went to the teahouse to sit, so he also made some friends with wine and meat.

According to the information provided by Xue, An Ruoxian directly found the grocery store opened by Xue San, because of the news, Xue San had been waiting in the store for a long time, and when she saw An Ruoxian coming alone, she was inevitably surprised, so she asked, "Xian girl, where is your brother?" ”

As he asked, he led the person to the room behind the shop.

The house is connected to the grocery store, and the secrecy is not good, An Ruoxian is not very satisfied, so she said: "Third uncle, is there a more secret room?" ”

She has long been familiar with the original owner's memories of several uncles, and she can tell who is who at a glance.

Xue San was stunned, thinking about what his sister said in the letter, his niece had something to explain, so he nodded and said, "Yes, you come with me." ”

So An Ruoxian left the two maids and followed him out of the back door of the grocery store, and finally arrived in a hidden alley and entered a private house.

"This is where the third uncle lives now, and no one usually comes over, so it's safe." Xue Sandao took An Ruoxian into the hall.

The hall is not big, except for the tables, chairs and benches, there are no side furnishings, and there is not even a New Year's painting.

An Ruoxian looked at the simple environment in the room and unconsciously frowned.

Seeing this, Xue San said half-mockingly and half-helplessly: "It's just a temporary place to settle down, where can it be compared to the Hou Mansion, the girl will go down first, do you want to have a cup of tea?" ”

An Ruoxian retracted her gaze and shook her head, she didn't sit down, but said: "I came here today to bother my uncle to do me a favor, after the matter is done-" She looked around the room, hooked the corners of her lips and said confidently: "The beautiful house has everything." ”

"Oh?" Xue San's eyes lit up, he loved money and wanted to come out, but he was not stupid, it was impossible to completely believe the words of a little girl, even if this girl was his niece, the young lady of the Hou Mansion.

Xue San didn't nod, but asked, "What's busy?" ”

An Ruoxian raised her eyebrows, and said in her heart that this uncle has a bit of brains, no wonder he can be the little villain in the original text.

Although it can't meet her requirements, she can only give in if she can't find a capable person to do things at the moment.

Reaching out and skimming the corner of the table, An Ruoxian rubbed her fingertips in disgust, and said, "Before answering the third uncle's question, I hope the third uncle can answer me a question." ”

Xue San frowned, but still nodded, "You say." ”

An Ruoxian said: "If you have a pond in front of you and there are many fish in it, do you choose to catch them all at once, or catch half of them and keep half of them?" ”

Xue San's heart was shocked, and he glanced at his niece who was a little strange in shock, and replied thoughtfully: "Naturally, half of the fish is left, if the fish is finished, there will be no fish next year." ”

Although he doesn't read as much as his eldest brother, he still understands the truth of fishing with all his might.

"Good." An Ruoxian nodded approvingly, so that she didn't have to worry about these uncles missing the big things in the future for the sake of the small profits in front of her.

She took out a white porcelain vial from the purse she was carrying, shook it, and said, "What is in this is a spiritual spring, as long as a small drop, it can increase the efficacy of any medicine by a hundred and ten times, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is holy water." ”

The porcelain vase is an ordinary porcelain vase containing pills, and it doesn't look special at a glance, Xue San looked at this smooth and round porcelain vase, and for a moment, he thought that his niece was talking in a dream.

Let the efficacy of any medicine be enhanced by a hundred and ten times, this sentence sounds ordinary, but the meaning behind it can shock the world.

You know, although there is no medicine in this world to bring the dead back to life and help people live forever, but there are medicines to prolong life and strengthen the body.

Xue San couldn't believe that there could be such a miraculous thing.

He didn't pick up the porcelain vase that An Ruoxian took out, and even a little anger appeared in his eyes.

He felt that his niece was playing with him like a mouse.

An Ruoxian saw the doubt and displeasure in Xue San's eyes, and couldn't help but feel a sense of anger in her heart, this was something she had spent a few days trying to take out of the space, how dare this person doubt it?!

She didn't bother to explain to this pedantic and timid person, she directly put the porcelain vase on the dusty table, and said proudly: "It's true or false, you will know it as soon as you try it, I have been out for some time, please ask the third uncle to send me back to the grocery store, I am going home." ”

Even if Xue San was unhappy in his heart, for the sake of the face of his niece now being Miss Houfu, he would not show it, and when he heard this, he nodded and said, "I'll send you back." ”

As he spoke, he opened the door of the hall and walked straight out.

An Ruoxian saw that he didn't take the porcelain vase on the table, and her heart was suffocated, she said, in the future, when you beg me to let you do something! She firmly believes that as long as she has tried the effect of the spiritual spring, no one can resist its temptation.

With a calm face, An Ruoxian followed Xue San back to the grocery store.

Before leaving, she couldn't help but instruct: "If there is any situation, remember to inform me in time." ”

She said me, not my mother, which can be seen to mean something.

Xue San frowned and responded perfunctorily, in his heart, he didn't believe his niece's words.

After sending An Ruoxian away, Xue San was busy with the affairs of the store, and by the time he returned to his residence, it was already sunset.

The small porcelain vase was still on the table, Xue San glanced at it, and picked it up in a ghostly way, he thought, it doesn't take much effort to try left and right, why not try it, if it's really maybe?

Like the Xue family, the Xue brothers want to be prosperous and crazy, but whenever there is a little opportunity, they will not let it go.

Two days later, An Ruoxian got a message from Xue, and Xue San asked her to meet her at the old place a day later.

She knew that the time had come for the Xue brothers to beg to do something for her.

After a little preparation, a day later, An Ruoxian once again excused herself to leave the house and met with Xue San, this time, Xue San changed her previous attitude and simply wanted to offer her as a bodhisattva.

After finalizing a series of matters, An Ruoxian knew that her good days were coming, and the day when An Ruolan fell into the clouds was not far away. R1152
