096: Bai Xiao, a treasure digging expert
"I won't say much about the rest, all of them are good, and it took a lot of effort to make people paint these portraits! Well, take it back and take a closer look, and tell me which one you like! Liang Wenqing had an expression wrapped around me, and he stuffed the scroll to Jiang Ying in one go.
"Miss Liang, I already said it last time, I really don't have this plan......" Jiang Ying said helplessly.
And looking at so many 'excellent sons' at the same time, how can she be virtuous......
"It doesn't matter, you should make plans as early as possible, choosing a husband and this kind of thing, but you have to do it early, otherwise you can only pick the rest of others!" Liang Wenqing persuaded bitterly.
Looking at Liang Wenqing, who was enthusiastic about this field, Jiang Ying couldn't guess her thoughts.
This stupid girl, there is really nothing she doesn't dare to do for the sake of the spring breeze.
But feelings are a matter of two people, where is it so easy.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ying couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for Liang Wenqing in her heart, and just wanted to open her mouth to persuade her, but Liang Wenqing grabbed the front, and said: "If I don't go back, my father should be worried, you go back and take a slow look, I'll go first!" β
"Wait! Portraitβ" Jiang Ying hurriedly called out to her.
"You hold it and watch it slowly!" Liang Wenqing responded, and the person had already gone away.
Watching Liang Wenqing's figure gradually disappear into the darkness, Jiang Ying couldn't help but sigh.
When I looked down again, I was holding a large number of pictures in my arms, and I felt powerless.
Because she was still holding a cauldron in her arms, as soon as Jiang Ying turned around, the picture scrolls piled up on it crackled and fell to the ground, and some of them scattered.
Jiang Ying couldn't spare his hand to tidy up, so he took the lead in sending the pot back to the house, and then turned around and came back to pick it up.
But when she came out again, she found that the ground had already been cleaned up.
And the picture scroll that was originally horizontal on the ground is now neatly staying in Jin Qi's hands.
Jiang Ying's face suddenly froze.
Does this person want to appear so 'timely'?
Looking at Jin Qi, who was still carrying a bow and arrows on his back, Jiang Ying realized that he had probably just returned from the mountain.
"Yours?" In the dim light, Jin Qi looked at Jiang Ying and asked.
"It's not my ......," Jiang Ying replied curtly.
"Is that yours or not?"
Jiang Ying was silent for a while, thinking about what was at stake.
If she admits it, what will Jin Qi think of her?
There are many portraits of men in his private collection......
Just such a crime, Jiang Ying felt that she couldn't bear it.
So, he simply shook his head, shook his head decisively and said, "It's not mine." β
"How can that be on your doorstep?" Jin Qi seems to be abnormally persistent this time, and has the potential to break the casserole and ask to the end.
"Miss Liang left it here!" Jiang Ying looked at Jin Qi with an expression that I really wasn't lying.
Actually, she really wasn't lying, was she?
This was originally given to her by Liang Wenqing.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ying's confidence became more and more sufficient, and a pair of black eyes as bright as jade were full of affirmation.
Jin Qi withdrew his gaze, and then stuffed the scroll back to her.
Jiang Ying panicked, thinking that he didn't believe him, and hurriedly explained: "I said it all, these things are not mine-"
Jin Qi lowered his eyes and glanced at her, and asked lightly: "Then do you think it is appropriate for me to go back with the portraits of these men?" β
Jiang Ying was stunned for a moment.
imagined the situation when Jin Qi went home with a bunch of men's portraits to look through, and couldn't help but shudder.
The picture is too beautiful......
Seeing Jin Qi turn around and want to leave, Jiang Ying suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly called out to him, saying, "Young Master Jin, you wait first, I'll go get the clothes and come out and return you-"
Jin Qi didn't look back when he heard this, but he stopped.
Jiang Ying hurriedly ran back to the courtyard, put down the picture scroll, took the cotton clothes that had been washed this morning and walked out.
"Thank you last night." Jiang Ying handed over the clothes and said with a smile.
"It's a gesture." Jin Qi took the cotton coat and strode towards the front of the house.
Jiang Ying hesitated for a while, and suddenly said to his back: "I will definitely return those portraits to Miss Liang." β
It's a repetition of proving that these things really aren't hers......
Jin Qi opened the lock for a moment, then hummed lightly, pushed the door and entered the courtyard.
Jiang Ying also turned back to her yard, and when she heard the Zhuang family beckoning her to go in for dinner, Jiang Ying answered absentmindedly.
What the hell was going on with her?
Explained over and over again, for fear of ...... Afraid that he will misunderstand?
Thinking that she is not one of those thin-skinned little girls, why do you suddenly have these concerns?
Isn't it just a few scrolls of portraits?
The more Jiang Ying thought about it, the more she felt as if something had become abnormal.
When do you want to say since then...... It seems that after falling into the water last night, after putting on that cotton coat?
But is there something wrong with the cotton clothes, or is she stupid because she is soaked in water?
Jiang Ying looked at the sky in distress.

Half a month later, in early October.
As the weather gradually cooled, Bai Xiao's spirit became more and more vigorous day by day.
It has always been afraid of heat, and now the autumn is high and cool, and it is naturally very happy, and it is addicted to catching crickets all day long, and it is never tired.
And the crickets caught by it will inevitably die, and the nature of the ferocious animal will be exposed/exposed.
Jiang Ying looked at the hundreds of cricket corpses swept out by the people who were sprinkled and swept away, and sighed and felt even more relieved - according to this momentum, there would be no need for her to worry about the deworming work in the Yunxiao Courtyard.
At this time, Bai Xiao, a little insecticidal expert, suddenly ran over.
Bai Xiao came to Jiang Ying and raised her furry head.
Jiang Ying looked at it and saw that it was holding a piece of dirt in its mouth.
"What is this?" Jiang Ying was puzzled.
I saw Bai Xiao shaking her head at her.
Seeing this, Jiang Ying took the thing over, and after wiping the soil on it with a handkerchief, it turned out to be a piece of white jade with a transparent texture.
Bai Yu was about the size of a child's palm, and there were totems wrapped around it that she couldn't understand, but she always felt as if she had seen it somewhere.
Jiang Ying frowned and thought about it, and after a while, she had an epiphany.
This is the family crest of Hanfu!
I took a closer look again, and saw that the center surrounded by the totem was engraved with the word "Han".
I think it's a token or something.
Jiang Ying thought about it and planned to hand over this jade to Han Chengji.
It is not only the Han family's thing, but also Bai Xiao dug it up in the Han family, so of course it has to be handed over.
Jiang Ying touched Bai Xiao's head approvingly, and said, "Wait until I come back to make you braised lion's head to eat!" β
Bai Xiao, who instantly changed from a little expert in killing insects to a little expert in digging treasures, raised his head happily and roared, shook his hair, and watched Jiang Ying come out of the Cloud Courtyard.
Jiang Ying came to the front yard and didn't see Han Chengji, but she saw Ah Lu, who was bored squatting under the tree and watching the ants move.
Hearing Jiang Ying's shout, Ah Lu hurriedly stood up.
"Ah Ying, why are you here?" Ah Lu walked over and asked, Jiang Ying would not have come here unless she had something to do or was summoned by Han Chengji.
"Bai Xiao picked this up, I looked at it as if it was quite valuable, so I thought about handing it over to the young master-"
Ah Lu asked, "What is it, I'll see." β
Jiang Ying handed over the white jade in her hand.
Ah Lu took it, only glanced at it, and suddenly his eyes widened, "This ......"
"Where did you find it?" Ah Lu forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart, looked at Jiang Ying and asked.
Jiang Ying replied truthfully, "In the Sky Courtyard." β
"Good...... I, I'm going to sue the old man and the young master! Ah Lu dropped this sentence with a surging face, and ran away as if he were flying.
Jiang Ying didn't stay here for long, and when she saw Ah Lu leaving, she also returned to Yunxiao Courtyard.
Zhengzhiyuan, study.
Han Xu is talking to Han Chengji.
Han Xu, who has been bedridden for nearly a month, has been getting better recently and has been able to get out of bed.
Today, I specially invited my son to come over to talk about things.
"Father is talking about the nomads in the northwest?" After listening to Han Xu's words, Han Chengji frowned and asked.
"What kind of vagrants, that's clearly a chaotic people-" Han Xu said with a cold snort.
The northwestern nomads have been divided into many large and small tribes, and in order to seize the territory for many years, they have been fighting for many years, and in recent years, a tribe surnamed Yan has grown in the process of annexing other small tribes, and at the beginning of this year, not only proclaimed itself king, but also refused the tribute of previous years.
"It's just that the court is too busy to take care of itself now, and the doppelganger lacks skills." Han Chengji said with a cold face, "But the barbarians in the northwest are fierce and arrogant, and they are not suitable to be enemies for the time being until the last resort." β
Han Xu nodded in agreement, and then said, "But if they don't have long eyes and bump into them by themselves, my Han family will never be afraid of him!" β
The barbarians are fierce on the one hand, ignorance is even more on the other, they have not set foot in the Central Plains for a hundred years, and they know very little about the Central Plains.
Han Chengji was noncommittal to Han Xu's words, and lowered his eyes to eat tea.
Han Xu looked at his only son, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart.
In addition to his weak body, this son is very satisfied in all aspects, calm and resourceful, and what is even more rare is that he never soft-hearted in doing things - this is a person in charge of the world, and it is impossible to do it.
Obviously, he also has this, and perhaps it is precisely because of this that his son is so alienated from him.
But the world can have both......
But his eyes swept to the wheelchair under his son's seat, and Han Xu's eyes were still painful.
In the final analysis, he was too negligent of his son back then.
The father and son had their own thoughts, and the study was quiet for a while.
Until the servant outside spoke clearly, and said that someone had come to the pear garden.
After Han Xu agreed, Fang You's servant gently pushed open the door of the study, and after a while, Ah Lu bowed his head and walked in respectfully.
But seeing that although he was hanging his head, he still couldn't hide his excitement, Han Chengji asked quietly, "What's the matter here?" β
"Master, young master...... Ah Ying picked this upβ" Ah Lu held the piece of white jade in both hands and sent it to Han Chengji's eyes tremblingly.
Han Chengji looked at it, his eyes were slightly shocked, and he motioned for Ah Lu to hand it over to Han Xu, and asked, "Father, I don't know if this is the jade plate of the head of the family that was lost ten years ago?" βR1152
