Chapter 9: Unreasonableness
Ning Zimo had just finished instructing Yunu to go and see the matter of pearl powder, and this Xiaoli didn't know where it came out again, squatted on the desk in front of her, and licked the warm tea she had just used.
Yu Nu hasn't left yet, seeing this scene, her face is a little unsightly, but she feels nothing, and raised her hand to stop what Yu Nu wants to say, although this Xiaoli is a little fat, but fat and cute, the more you look at it, the more people can't put it down, so she stretched out her claws to it, up and down her hands, holding it in her arms, its hair is delicate, as comfortable as fine silk, rubbing her neck itchy and comfortable.
She grabbed the dried fish and put it to its mouth, waved her hand to let the jade slave go before handing the cat food to Xiaoli, it probably didn't want to eat, and gently pulled the food to the other side with its paws.
"Don't want to eat? Shall I give you a fish soup to drink? ”
It licked its paws and walked into her dressing box, she was amazed, her dressing box was not big, but this little li looked fat, how could it fit it.
She knew that the cat's bones were very soft, but she never thought that this little separation was made of water, which softened her heart, and then looked at its dripping eyes, it was almost heartbroken.
"Someone, let the butler come over."
She didn't wait long before the butler came over, as if she had seen the general himself: "What does Miss Yan command?" ”
"Tell someone to make a beautiful box, about, about this size."
As she spoke, she pointed to the desk on the low couch, and the butler looked puzzled and said, "There are so many such boxes in the storeroom, if you are in a hurry, Miss, you will ask someone to fetch them." ”
She nodded, got up and put Xiaoli in her arms at the same time: "Let's go, I'll choose by myself." ”
Chose the cat box back, she was satisfied with the ash on the area wiped clean, and put some dried flowers in it, to taste, a handful of Xiao Li, but found that Xiao Li was no longer by his side, got up and looked around only to find that Xiao Li came back with two golden bream carp in his mouth.
Ning Zimo helped his forehead: How did this Xiaoli bring back the two little pets that Ning Zixin had carefully fed.
"Good, spit it out, it's not good to eat raw, I'll ask someone to stew soup for you to drink, okay?"
Ning Zimo put his hand under Xiao Li's mouth as he spoke, Xiao Li was obedient, and after spitting it on Ning Zimo's hand, he meowed obediently, and flicked his tail.
When the jade slave came back, Ning Zimo had already stolen the two fish that Ning Zixin had carefully fed, and was ordering someone to give Xiaoli a stewed soup to drink. ”
Ning Zimo was stunned for a moment, and didn't intend to answer her question, but just instructed the cook waiting behind: "Remember to stew it thicker, and don't put chopped green onions, Xiaoli doesn't like that taste." ”
"Miss, you still have the heart to raise a cat, the street is noisy."
"Don't worry about these things, by the way, what's going on?"
"Miss, a lot of money has been spent, in order not to let Aunt Wei find out, they all used your previous private room, and now there is a key problem, Miss, so many pearls, those shopkeepers are still waiting for me to tell where to send them." While Yunu said this, he looked around carefully, afraid that someone would find out.
Ning Zimo only twisted his brows slightly, and then ordered: "I heard that the prince has been sick recently, and it is good for pearl powder to be used in medicine, you ordered those shopkeepers to send them to the prince's mansion." ”
"Then Aunt Wei and Second Miss won't be suspicious at that time?"
"No, they will only think that I am in the prince's mansion, where would I think of so much. There is also the batch of pink pearls that I treasured to be sent to the Zhenzhen Pavilion for storage. ”
Yu Nu didn't understand a little, but he had always been used to listening to Ning Zimo's instructions, so he nodded and asked, "Are you going now?" ”
"Yes."
Before their master and servant could finish speaking, Ning Zixin ran over angrily with a face that was still a little red and swollen, and when she arrived in front of Ning Zimo, she gritted her teeth and saluted and asked, "I heard that the beast just now entered my yard?" ”
"What do you mean by that, is something going on?"
"Zhang Zhangshi in my yard, as well as Xiao Cheng, who was cleaning, saw that the cat in your arms took away my two fish, and broke the enamel vase I bought at a high price, and returned ......."
"Meow (yes, I did it, what's wrong?) )”
The cat in Ning Zimo's arms tilted its head, and after a serious meow, it looked at Ning Zimo innocently.
Ning Zimo patted its fat body with confidence, and said innocently: "Maybe it was broken by the people in your yard, I'm afraid that you will blame you for wronging my family, maybe it's not true?" ”
Ning Zixin never thought that this young lady would die to protect this cat, and gritted her teeth and said: "Sister, don't go too far, although those things are not worth anything, but my sister can't protect this culprit so blatantly." ”
Ning Zimo in his heart: Yes, I'm just so protective and unreasonable, I just want to protect this culprit, what's wrong, bite me.
"Since my sister also said that things are not worth anything, then my sister will please, I will feed Xiaoli fish soup to drink."
After Ning Zimo said this, he was about to turn around and leave, but Ning Zixin didn't plan to stop there, and followed Ning Zimo as well.
The fish soup was served, and Ning Zixin looked at the fish soup with a very difficult face, and went back without saying a word.
"Miss, these two young ladies have suffered this loss this time, our Hua Tingyuan has to be on guard." The jade slave hadn't gone out yet, and when she saw Ning Zixin coming out of this Huating Garden in anger, she couldn't help but feel a little drumming in her heart.
"What are you afraid of, even if she has a trick, if I blink an eye, I will lose. You go and do what I just told you to do. ”
After a while, Ning Zixin was in her boudoir and yelled angrily: "That slut bought everything and used it to tie up the prince's mansion?" ”
"Yes, miss, and when the house doctor went this time, it seemed that he had made an appointment, and those shops refused to sell a pearl to the house doctor, and they all said that there was no stock, or some crooked melons and cracked dates, inferior pearl powder."
When Ning Zixin heard this, her face was crooked, and a little girl who had no impression of Ning Zixin added indignantly when she saw this scene: "When the house doctor took the slave maid to the Zhenzhen Pavilion, in fact, the Zhenzhen Pavilion still had high-quality pink pearls, but they were not sold, saying that someone stored them there." ”
"Not for sale? Go with the money yourself now, and if you don't sell it, Miss Ben will set fire to his shop tomorrow." ”
"That's not good, if this gets out, it will damage your reputation, Second Miss."
Ning Zixin looked at the little girl carefully, and said suspiciously: "Who are you?" Why haven't I seen you? ”
"Second Miss Hui, my name is Arnold, I am a young apprentice next to the house doctor, I didn't buy pearl powder when I helped the master go out to buy pearl powder today, so I came to tell you."
Ning Zixin nodded and ordered, "I don't care what method you use, just help me buy high-grade pearls." ”
