The Royal Palace, the Imperial Study.

Zhou Yuanhui looked at the man in white on the dragon chair, his face was very respectful.

"The matter of the Chu family, you are too eager to get it done, and now it is even more difficult for you and my people to enter the Chu family again." The man in white said nonchalantly.

"Please also ask Childe for advice."

Zhou Yuanhui was worried about this matter, and the chess pieces he had planted in the Chu Mansion for ten years were cut off yesterday.

After inquiring, I learned that he broke Jiang Wei's cup and was directly killed by the cane on the spot.

Now he can't inquire about the slightest news of the Chu family.

"Wait."

The man in white took a sip of tea, and then placed it on the desk.

Zhou Yuanhui hesitated for a moment, and then said, "When will you do what you promised me?" ”

The man in white narrowed his narrow eyes slightly, the corners of his mouth were half hooked, and he said coldly: "I got what I wanted, and I will naturally solve it for you, in order to show my sincerity, I will temporarily restrain him." ”

"The matter of the Chu family, I hope you will do it as soon as possible."

……

At this moment, only Zhou Yuanhui was left in the imperial study, his brows were furrowed, what was there in the Chu family that was worth thinking about.

……

After that, Jiang Wei went to Ningqiu Palace to find Zhou Yuanyi and Jiang Ningqiu, but learned that the two had left the palace early in the morning, so they had to go back to Chu Mansion.

As a result, when I stepped into the door, I heard a voice that I hadn't heard for a long time, "Although I am your adoptive mother, I also pull you so much, if you drive us out of the house, I will go to the street to preach how you treat me as an old woman." ”

"Xiao Qiang, look at it, what kind of wolf-hearted thing you picked up!"

You don't need to look at it to know that it is Ma Chunni, but how did she know that Xiao Qingnan returned to Beijing, not to mention that they only returned to Beijing for a few days.

Xiao Qingnan looked coldly at the sprinkling of horse spring mud on the ground, and then looked at Xiao Shi and Xiao Guo behind her.

Jiang Wei, who unintentionally glanced at the door and walked in, softened her expression a lot, strode over, and raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead.

"Didn't find anyone?"

Jiang Wei went out in less than two quarters of an hour, and it took about two quarters of an hour to go back and forth from here to Ningqiu Palace.

"Hmm."

Jiang Wei glanced at a few people lightly.

Xiao Shi and Xiao Guo subconsciously shrunk their necks, and Xiao Guo asked in a low voice, "Big brother, do you want us to go?" ”

"With my mother's temperament, I dare to speak?" Xiao Shi also wanted to leave, although he was rich and dangerous, he didn't want to be in danger at all.

"Do you go by yourself, or will I send it?" Jiang Wei said coldly.

Familiar words, different people, but give them the same sense of fear, the two of them are very spineless and said: "Let's go by ourselves." ”

Seeing that they were so useless, Ma Chunni immediately pointed at them and scolded: "There is no use for anything, there is no silver, the old lady will see you go there." ”

Xiao Shi and Xiao Guo didn't want to come, but Ma Chunni only left half a tael of silver for the family, and the rest was all on her, so they had no choice but to escort her to the capital.

Along the way, Ma Chunni bumped into a lot of nobles, and most of the two brothers went with half their lives, how dare they think of anything else.

Hearing this, Xiao Qingnan glanced at Steward Luo, who willingly took the purse on his waist and gave them thirty taels of silver.

"The silver is used as your travel expenses back to the village, but if you want to collect the money and make trouble, it is easy to send you to the official."

Xiao Shi and Xiao Guo couldn't believe it, and then said gratefully: "Thank you, master, let's leave now, and never stay in Chu Mansion any longer, as for my mother, we can't take care of her." ”

Xiao Shi took the silver and Xiao Guo and turned around and left.

"Xiao Shi, Xiao Guo, you two have suffered a thousand cuts, leave me the silver!" Ma Chunni saw that they were leaving with thirty taels of silver, and immediately jumped up from the ground.

Xiao Shi and Xiao Guo are not stupid, they just ran away, and when Ma Chunni got up, he couldn't see the two of them, and his face turned blue with anger.

Facing Jiang Wei's eyes, Ma Chunni panicked, but still said stiffly: "My son's adoptive mother is righteous. ”

Afraid that they would not agree, he added: "If you let me live here, I will return your jade pendant to you." ”

Jiang Wei and Xiao Qingnan glanced at each other, and the two of them knew what it meant.

Xiao Qingnan said quietly: "That jade pendant has long been gone, if you want to use this lie in the Chu Mansion, it is absolutely impossible." ”

Seeing that he didn't believe it, Ma Chunni hurriedly took out the jade pendant from his arms, "Look, is this your jade pendant?" There are also words carved for you by the old man. ”

Xiao Qingnan took a closer look, his eyes darkened, and he said coldly: "Why is this jade pendant in your hands." ”

Ma Chunni's heart tightened slightly, and he took out the words that he had prepared in his heart and said: "The family is about to be unable to open the pot, so I will sell the old man's bow." ”

"Who knew that I saw this jade pendant in Yi Jiuju, and the shopkeeper said that this jade pendant was not easy to sell, so he gave it to me."

"I traveled thousands of miles to give you this jade pendant, and my shoes are worn out several pairs, but I didn't expect you to let me enter the mansion." Saying that, Ma Chunni wiped her tears, how sad Zi Sensei was.

"In this way, not letting you live in Chu Mansion is indeed my unfilial piety."

"Steward Luo, clean up a yard and come out, and send two more mothers-in-law to serve her, and you should also take more "care". ”

Then Xiao Qingnan motioned to Ma Chunni to give her the jade pendant, Ma Chunni didn't hesitate at all, so he gave it to him.

……

In the study, Xiao Qingnan glanced at the jade pendant a few times and handed it to Jiang Wei, "This jade pendant is real." ”

Jiang Wei touched it, this jade is snow-white, cold in the hand, and the texture is excellent, I am afraid it cost a lot of silver, she said: "Jiang Wei should be given to Jiuyiju back then, and I also went to redeem it, and the shopkeeper of the pawnshop said that the jade pendant has been passed back to the main shop in the capital." ”

She did ask, but she didn't talk to him because she didn't.

The study was silent for a while, and then Xiao Qingnan's deep voice sounded: "I'm afraid I have to check this Jiuyiju." ”

"Don't worry, find a few people to pay attention to Ma Chunni, I estimate that her purpose is not simple." Jiang Wei said.

……

The next morning, it was dark, the rain was drizzling, and there was a hint of coolness in the air.

In the small courtyard of Xiyuan, the bamboo leaves in the yard are rattling, and the room in the house is quiet.

Then there was the sound of Sixi's chattering.

Xiao Qingnan got dressed, looked at the mother and son who were still sleeping, hooked the corners of his lips, pulled the quilt, and gently put it on them.

At this time, "Shang Chao? Jiang Wei opened her eyes, and her voice carried a hint of sleepiness.

"Well, you can sleep again, and when I come back, I'll call you for breakfast." Xiao Qingnan pinched the corners of the quilt, and then straightened up.

Jiang Wei looked at his slightly untidy collar, sat up, and motioned for him to stand up with her eyes.

Could it be that the lady wants to kiss him?

Xiao Qingnan felt a little excited in his heart, but his face was as usual, he approached the side of the bed and deliberately bent down.

"Stand up straight."

Seeing that he was standing up straight, Jiang Wei reached out and straightened out his somewhat crooked belt and collar.

A pair of hands touched his waist, and when he touched it, Xiao Qingnan's eyes darkened, grabbed her hand, and said with a hint of hoarseness in a low voice: "Don't you know that men in the morning can't stand teasing?" ”
