And he himself didn't know how to talk to him about this matter for a while, so he sighed, got up and said, "Let's go, I'll invite you to drink." ”

.......

Yan Gu went to Yanfu to find Yan Qi the next day, and was told that Yan Qi had left the city to go to Baoshan, so he left a message and asked him to see him when Yan Qi came back.

The porter should go down and send a message to Baoshan.

After leaving Yanfu, Yan Gu went to Yuchun Hall on Siyu Street.

"Coincidentally" met Jiang Lingran.

Jiang Lingran saw Yan Gu, his face was slightly surprised, and he hurriedly put down the work in his hand and greeted him respectfully.

Yan Gu's expression was even more surprised than Jiang Lingran, he took a few steps closer, and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, Miss Jiang also came here to buy things?" ”

Jiang Lingran hung his head slightly, and explained softly: "This shop belongs to a people's girl, and there is nothing to do in the house today, so come and have a look." ”

Yan Gu smiled kindly when he heard this, and looked inside and outside the counter: "It turned out to be Miss Jiang's shop, I don't know if it's true." ”

Jiang Lingran didn't discuss this issue too much, remembering his identity as the "shopkeeper". Gong Sheng asked, "Is His Royal Highness King Shin wanting to buy something?" Saying that, he smiled a little embarrassedly: "Actually, the things in this shop are not of the highest quality, and Your Highness may not be able to choose the things you want." ”

Yan Gu laughed out loud: "Just because of Miss Jiang's real strength, this king will definitely choose a few things to take away." ”

Jiang Lingran lowered his head and smiled slightly, and asked again, "I don't know what His Highness needs?" ”

Yan Gu said: "Is there a jade ornament?" ”

Jiang Lingran said: "Yes, yes, but the color of the jade is not very transparent." As he spoke, he glanced at Mu Zili.

Mu Zili understood and hurriedly took people to the warehouse to pick up the goods.

Yan Gu's eyes kept staring at Jiang Lingran when he said the jade ornament, and he didn't miss her subtle look.

But until Mu Zili took out the jade ornament, what she had on her face was always respectful and cautious.

There is not the slightest weakness of heart and dodging.

Mu Zi Li brought four pieces.

The carving of blue and white marble is smooth sailing.

A set of jade cards of Meilan bamboo chrysanthemum.

A pot of jade plum blossom bonsai.

An incense burner of red agate.

Jiang Lingran glanced at it and said with a wry smile: "Your Highness, this is the best in the library." ”

Yan Gu looked at the four things on the counter, and said with a slight smile: "Although the jade quality of this jade card is not good, the carving is not bad." ”

Jiang Lingran heard this: "Rough things, it is the blessing of the small shop to be liked by His Royal Highness." ”

Yan Gu smiled even more: "I'm very afraid of trouble, since I'm here today, I'm too lazy to go to another house." ”

"I wonder if Miss Jiang has any other good things to keep in store here?"

Jiang Lingran's face was slightly frightened: "Your Highness said with a smile, you are here, naturally you will take out the best things in the shop." How dare you keep it private? ”

Yan Gu nodded with satisfaction.

"It is said that jade can ward off evil spirits and eliminate disasters, Zi'an has been in danger a lot recently, so I thought about buying him a good one and putting it on his desk." Saying that, he looked at the jade card again, shook his head and said: "It's just that he is used to seeing good things, and his eyes are very tricky, if I buy this thing back, he is afraid that he will laugh at me for being stingy and refuse to spend money." ”

Jiang Lingran smiled and listened, and said respectfully: "The identity of the seventh prince is valuable, and there are many jade lines under his name, so this kind of rough object is naturally not eye-catching." ”

Yan Gu looked at her indifferently but faintly detached eyebrows, and asked with a smile: "Do you also know this bad problem of his?" ”

When Jiang Lingran heard this, his smile became a little embarrassed: "Your Highness is really joking." The folk girl and the prince have only met a few times, and they have never said a few words, so they really don't know his preferences. ”

Only then did Yan Gu realize that he had said the wrong thing, and raised his hand and patted his forehead in annoyance: "It was my negligence, don't blame Miss Jiang." ”

Jiang Lingran shook his chin: "Your Highness is serious, and the people don't dare." ”

Yan Gu couldn't see any flaws in her, so she bought the jade card and left.

After Yan Gu left, Jiang Lingran calmly asked Mu Zili to put the things back in the warehouse, and asked for nearly half a month's account books and went to the study in the backyard.

Lei Jian, who was hiding in the shop opposite and observing Jiang Lingran's reaction, came out of the shop after Jiang Lingran bypassed the counter and entered the backyard, and chased Yan Gu's carriage.

When she arrived at the study, Jiang Lingran's face was indifferent, she raised her hand and pressed it on her heart, slowly calming down her nervousness and panic.

Thinking carefully about the words and deeds just now, shouldn't you have shown your feet?

came to test her, which means that Yan Gu is suspicious of her, so will he test Yan Qi?

Thinking of this, her heart became anxious, and she didn't stay long, she quickly returned home.

found Uncle Wen and asked him to quietly inquire where Yan Qi was, and told him that His Royal Highness King Xin came to Yutangchun to buy jade ornaments for him.

Uncle Wen frowned after hearing this, and raised his eyes to look at Jiang Lingran.

Jiang Lingran said knowingly: "Brother, I will say where I am." Go ahead and don't get discovered. ”

Uncle Wen said yes and withdrew.

Jiang Lingran went to Jiang Ji's courtyard, and said half-truthfully: "I always feel that there is something in the words of King Xin, as if he is suspicious of something, I asked Uncle Wen to remind him, lest he say something unguarded, but it will affect us in vain." ”

Jiang Ji looked at her for a while and said in a low voice, "You really think so?" ”

Jiang Lingran nodded.

Jiang Ji looked at her and nodded.

The brother and sister didn't continue the topic, and instead talked about Jiang Yanle.

Wan Boniang helped find a female master surnamed Zhang to enlighten Jiang Yanle.

Zhang Fuzi's temperament is very gentle, her father is a showman, and she has read poetry and books since she was a child.

A few years ago, her husband died while working, and she used the money she earned as a master to support her son's education over the years.

“... I audited two performances and thought it was good, and Xiao Qi liked her very much. ”

Jiang Ji was still thinking about Yan Qi's affairs, and when he heard this, he said, "If my sister and Xiao Qi think it's good, let's make a decision." ”

Jiang Lingran smiled and said, "I still have to talk to the third uncle and third aunt." ”

Xiao Qi is their child, although he lives with them now, he still has to tell them about such a big thing as asking the master, and ask for permission.

Jiang Ji thought about Yan Gu's temptation, and was a little worried about her leaving the house.

Jiang Lingran understood in his heart, so he said: "Uncle Wen is not in the house, let the squirrel be the coachman for me." ”

Jiang Ji sighed helplessly, she could always try her best to convince him.

Originally, when he went to Yutangchun, he was going to the third uncle's house, but after leaving Jiang Ji, Jiang Lingran went out of the house again, went to see the third uncle and three aunts, and told them about Master Zhang.

The two of them saw that Jiang Lingran was looking for her to report everything, they were helpless, how good she was to Jiang Yanle, both of them saw it, but she still cared about those rumors, and she was careful in everything.

The two of them were sorry and grateful.

"It's good that the four girls decide, we all believe in you."

Jiang Lingran smiled when he heard this: "Then it's decided, and Master Zhang is decided?" ”

The two nodded with a smile.
