Chapter 209: What a Man Matters, What Does a Woman Mix
Lotus Ye nodded seriously: "That's natural!" β
Nan Baoyi thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I can't guess." β
On the other side of the bookcase, Xiao Yi turned a page of the book and said lightly: "It's the Liu family, right?" β
"Exactly!" Lotus Ye's eyes lit up, "Since Liu Li'er swept away the gold and silver and eloped out of the house, the third master drove the brothers and sisters-in-law of the Liu family out of the house." The two of them were desperate and wanted to go to Liu Li'er, but the people in the hall said that they didn't know anything about Liu Li'er at all. β
Nan Baoyi lifted the pen and dipped it in ink.
Of course, the people in the hall would not admit to seeing Liu Li'er.
Otherwise, Liu Li'er and their young owners are adulterers, caught by the government, and will be immersed in the pig cage!
From now on, Liu Li'er can only live in the shadows in another capacity, like a mouse in the attic, never seeing the light of day.
And this is also the path she chooses herself.
Lotus Ye sighed: "Liu Li'er is really ruthless, she doesn't even recognize her biological father." Even if it was inconvenient to show up, it would be better to give them a sum of money to make a living, but she didn't even have a message. I heard that it snowed heavily last night, and the brothers and sisters-in-law of the Liu family had nowhere to go, so they were frozen to death on the streets. When the watchman saw it, he thought it was a snow sculpture! β
Nan Baoyi's writing hand paused slightly.
She looked out the west window.
Last night, it suddenly snowed heavily, and all the buds of early spring were frozen to death.
About half of the crops in the fields also froze to death.
Shu County is already showing signs of famine......
Jiang Suihan sat in the corner and roasted meat, blowing the fire, "The climate is abnormal, I'm afraid there will be a disaster." Second Brother Xiao, you are right. β
Xiao Yi turned a page of the book and was indifferent.
Shen Yichao came in from outside, and casually threw an invitation card on the bookcase, "The Xue family sent it in." β
"The Xue family?"
Nan Baoyi was curious.
Counting the days, Xue Dudu should have returned to Jinguan City.
Among the wealthy families who plotted Nanfu, the Xue family and the Cheng family bore the brunt of the disaster, and they were not good people.
Moreover, compared with the Taishou Cheng family, the Xue family is in charge of military power, and its power is even more terrifying.
Shen Yichao sat down and said to Xiao Yi: "The last time Hong Laojiu attacked Nanfu at night, there were traces of the Xue family's instructions. If I'm not mistaken, they are borrowing Hong Laojiu's hand to test your depth. β
Nan Baoyi could hear it.
She thought that there was only Cheng Taishou behind her, but she didn't expect that the Xue family's hand had been stretched out so long at this time.
She peeled a green kernel fruit and said curiously: "What about the result of the temptation, is the second brother deep or shallow?" β
"Poof!"
Before everyone could react, Jiang Suihan was the first to laugh.
He was open-mouthed: "Nan Xiaowu, what you asked is not right. This thing should be Xiao Second Brother testing you, how can you say that others are testing him? β
Nan Baoyi didn't understand.
Xiao Yi turned the page of the book expressionlessly: "There is still some bacon waiting to be shipped out in the cellar, Jiang Suihan, go and transport bacon." β
Jiang Suihan: "......"
Eh, he'd forgotten how conservative the girls here are!
He closed the folding fan, slapped his mouth, and went out to "transport bacon".
Nan Baoyi was even more puzzled, "Second brother, I didn't know that you still sell bacon." Did you make it yourself, and how does it taste? Can you give me one and take it back to taste? β
"No."
Xiao Yi refused.
Nan Baoyi peeled a green kernel fruit dissatisfied.
Tsk, the second brother is so stingy......
In vain, she sent someone to bring him corn juice every day, could there be so many pots of corn juice, couldn't they be worth a piece of bacon he pickled?
She said arrogantly: "Second brother, I won't send you corn juice in the future!" β
Xiao Yi: "......"
That's great!
Shen Yichao coughed lightly.
These two eyebrows are eye-catching, when he doesn't exist?
He said loudly: "The Xue family sent an invitation to prove that Xue Dingwei recognizes your strength. I invited you to the banquet this time to give you the opportunity to be loyal to him. If you still refuse to surrender, then there is no doubt that he will use this banquet to kill you. β
Nan Baoyi looked at the red invitation.
looked beautiful, but I didn't expect it to be an invitation to the Hongmen banquet......
She said softly: "Since there are murderous opportunities, can the second brother not go?" β
"If you don't go, it's a sign of weakness and a weak heart." Shen Yichao said loudly, "So he not only wants to go, but also goes in a high-profile and arrogant manner, so that SchrΓΆdingwei can't figure out his hole cards." In this way, for at least half a year, he did not dare to act rashly. For most of the year, it is enough to develop power. β
He was meticulous and hit the nail on the head.
Nan Baoyi nodded and stared at Xiao Yi solemnly: "Second brother, I'll accompany you!" β
Xiao Yi casually flipped through the book.
Hearing this, he looked up from the scroll.
The little girl on the opposite side of the bookcase, wearing a ruby tassel, swayed, her little face was white and delicate, like a splendid hibiscus, scorching its brilliance.
Danfeng's eyes were bright and full of rare courage.
She wanted to protect him......
Xiao Yi curled his lips.
He closed the scroll and reached out to touch her face, "What do men do and women do together?" Stay in the house obediently, and when you come back from the night banquet, my brother will bring you spicy fried snails. You love that. β
Nan Baoyi was a little unhappy.
In the past, she always looked forward to hugging Lord Quanchen's golden thighs, but now, she controls Bai Xiaosheng's news channel in Yulouchun, and she is no longer the weak and incompetent girl she used to be.
She also wants to help him as much as she can!
Xiao Yi and Shen Yichao went to the inner room to discuss matters, and Nan Baoyi looked at the invitation on the bookcase.
She glanced at no one on her left and right, and the ghost turned it open.
Please post the process of the night banquet.
One of them was presided over by the eldest lady of the Xue family, calling on the nobles of Shu County to donate bead hairpin jewelry, and then auctioned on the spot, and used the silver money obtained from the auction to help the disaster caused by the heavy snow this spring.
Nan Baoyi secretly wrote down the time and place of the night banquet, and put the invitation back in its original place.
She came out of Chaowen Courtyard, and she didn't go far before she bumped into Nan Yan.
The girl was dressed in plain clothes, her eyes were red, and she was fixed on her.
Obviously, he was waiting for her here.
Nan Baoyi smiled: "My sister is filial piety, how can she walk at will?" In case of colliding with the elders in the house, can my sister afford it? β
"There's no one here, you don't play sisterhood with me!" Nan Yan's voice was hoarse, "You first ruined my brother's future, made him crazy, and now killed my mother, Nan Baoyi, you are so ruthless!" β
Nan Baoyi tilted her head and still smiled, "When my sister plotted to kill the Nan family's 10,000 mu of mulberry fields in the past, when she used Xia Qingqing to harm me repeatedly, when Nan Jing killed me in Yulou Chunmai, why didn't you think that you would have this step of the field today?" β
"We've hurt you, but so what? Didn't you fall for it?! "South Rouge hysterical.
Nan Baoyi sneered.
Didn't you get a hit, so you don't have to be retaliated against?
But in case she falls for the trick, in case she is really tainted by Xia Bowen and is really killed by Nanjingmai, who will she talk to?
Her tone was indifferent: "Nan Yan, the grievances and entanglements between you and me are far more complicated than you imagined. I can't do anything to repay you with virtue. If you have done me harm, you should bear my wrath. β
She staggered by.
Nan Yan turned around and suddenly smiled: "Do you think that with your back to Xiao Yi, you can sit back and relax?" β
Nan Baoyi stopped, silent.
Nan Yan stepped forward proudly: "I forgot to tell you, Brother Cheng said, take me to the night banquet of Xue Dudu's house...... This is a banquet that only the nobles of the Shu County official family can go to, and you are a merchant girl, and you can only be greedy. Xue Dudu, much more powerful than Xiao Yi! β
"Your mother is dead...... Nan Baoyi incredulously, "you just want to go to the night party?" β
