"It's not all because of the Yin Mansion, in fact...... I think it's still that little lady Song who has too much prejudice against her aunt! Anyway, when I went to Los Angeles, when I met this cousin, I felt as if she wasn't thinking about her future at all. Moreover, the Yin Mansion is also a mess, what kind of boudoir ladies can be raised by such a merchant family? No wonder my aunt was worried all day, and now even I feel that I still have to bring people back, so that my uncle will not regret it in the future. Besides, she didn't want to think about it, with her identity, how to stay in the Yin Mansion to discuss marriage? When she returned to the capital, she was the daughter of the mighty general's mansion, and if she stayed in Los Angeles, she could only be regarded as a drag oil bottle. ”

Lu Xiuyun thought about it, and gradually raised a Sichuan word in his eyebrows: "My aunt's relationship with my uncle has not been good over the years, and now it seems that she wants to intentionally repair the relationship between husband and wife, this trick is indeed very good, if you can find a good family for this Song cousin in the capital, my uncle will definitely think of my aunt's good even if he doesn't say it in his heart." Moreover, their father and daughter have been separated for many years, and now that Cousin Song has grown up, she should naturally be filial in front of her elders. In this way, you wait for my news, and tomorrow I will go to His Royal Highness King Qin to take a leave of absence, and see if I can accompany you to Los Angeles again and pick up people back. ”

"Really? Brother Xiuyun, you are so good! Thank you - but won't that delay your business? I'm afraid ......." Su Linglong was overjoyed at first, and then showed a little worry just right.

Lu Xiuyun didn't think she was pretentious at all, but waved her hand arrogantly and said: "Okay, in fact, I have rarely taken a break in the past few months, and yesterday His Royal Highness King Qin asked me if I wanted to accompany the elders in the family to a nearby spring outing?" This time, I also counted my filial piety to my aunt, which is both a fair and righteous thing. ”

"That's great! Brother Xiuyun, with you accompanying me, we will definitely be able to bring Cousin Song back this time! ”

Listening to the conversation next to him, the expression on Xu Zhizhang's face kept changing. Looking at Lu Zhaoming again, but his face was expressionless all the time, so he approached and lowered his voice to a very low level, pouting and signaling: "Hey, this cousin surnamed Su is going to take your brother to Los Angeles, the two of them—"

"I'll talk about it later."

As he spoke, Lu Zhaoming left a silver ingot to settle the account, and pulled Xu Zhizhang downstairs.

Yin Mansion, because the second lady and Yin Qiongzhi were arrested, the whole mansion was covered with a layer of haze. And the third uncle Yin Congde was even more exhausted, last night he asked his wife about what happened for a long time, but he didn't want the third lady, who had always been weak and sickly, not only kept silent, but also had a high fever in the middle of the night.

Tossing and turning in the middle of the night was almost sleepless, and in the morning he remembered the major event of the opening of the Tianbao Pavilion today, so he went out in a carriage with a strong spirit. Leaving Yin Yukui to guard her sick mother, while praying for the smooth opening of the stone today, she hoped that her mother would get better as soon as possible.

Fang Fei asked Da Tan to take someone to inquire about the second lady's murder last night, but because the location of the crime was in Mrs. Wang's own Tangquan Courtyard, she didn't have a clue for a while. But Mrs. Wang's body is still parked in the courtyard, and the state government has sent two officials to guard it there day and night.

According to Da Tan, after quietly touching in and checking it, he came back and said that Mrs. Wang had a fatal knife in the chest and should have been killed on the spot. And the murder weapon was the dagger that the second lady carried in her sleeve pocket when she went out yesterday, and now it has been taken away by He Biao's people as evidence in court.

In addition, there were two witnesses at the scene, one was the third lady, and the other was Mrs. Wang's personal maid Yumei.

"I only know that Mrs. Wang introduced the second aunt to participate in the printing of the money that day, so the second aunt went to her yesterday to get her money back. However, why is the third lady also in Mrs. Wang's courtyard? What the hell is going on? ”

With this huge question in mind, Fang Fei went to the Yanxia Pavilion in the main courtyard of the third room. Smelling a large smell of medicine from afar, coupled with the maid Chunrong next to Yin Yukui, he learned that the third lady suddenly fell ill last night.

"Seventh lady, my little lady is afraid that she won't have time to talk to you at this time, because the third lady is not lightly ill. Now the doctor is still diagnosing her pulse, otherwise, the little lady would have to follow the master to Tianbao Pavilion early in the morning. ”

Fang Fei nodded, thinking about this situation, no wonder the third uncle couldn't ask anything last night. But since you're here, I'd better go in and have a look.

went inside and said a few words to Yin Yukui, and when he saw that the people in the house were coming and going, he couldn't ask anything more, so he returned to his lotus fragrance in vain.

In the Tianbao Pavilion, Yin Congde and several experienced jade masters looked around the rough stone for a long time, during which some people shook their heads at the few cracks on the surface of the body to express regret, but some people immediately comforted: "This rough stone is big, maybe the cracks are only superficial, let's cut it shallower first, and then look at the situation inside." ”

After some discussion, a master surnamed Zhou took the lead. He is a recognized master in this industry, and he was specially invited from the southwest by Yin Congde at a high price.

It's just that when he slapped the oil down, the whole person couldn't stand up straight against the cut jade. Seeing this, everyone gathered around, and when they saw it, they also gasped.

"How so? …….”

Fang Fei was a little upset, and she couldn't calm down after sitting in her room for a while, so she simply went out again. When I came to Tianbao Pavilion, I saw that the door was already full of people at this time, but many people shook their heads and walked out of it, while mocking: "Oh, it seems that the third child of the Yin family is also old, and his eyesight is not good." Such a poor piece of rough white material was bought back by him as a treasure at a great price, this time it was good, and he lost all his face! ”

"That's it, we still don't want to come back to this Heavenly Treasure Pavilion in the future. He Yin Laosan can't buy good jade, and naturally he can't afford to do business. I heard that there are all kinds of treasures in Linlang Pavilion, so I'll go there to buy them in the future! ”

When Fang Fei heard these words, she suddenly felt bad in her heart, and when she rushed to the backyard to take a look, she saw some newly opened stones in the huge yard. And the third uncle squatted beside the huge rough stone with a sluggish expression, and there was only an old craftsman with white hair beside him, who was also looking at the cut jade in a daze.

"Uncle! What's wrong with you, uncle? What's going on when you get up? ”

Yin Congde heard his niece's questions again and again, and only then did he come back to his senses, and then beat his head in pain and chagrin, shook his head and blamed himself: "I've lost my eyes!" I'm blind! It's not a treasure at all, it's just a piece of rubb with no water color! I actually spent nearly 10,000 taels of silver to buy such a rag, I am really ashamed of the master, and I am ashamed of the ancestors of the Yin family! ”

Fang Fei saw that the third uncle looked broken and crazy, so she stretched out her head to look at the rough stone next to him. Then he frowned, this jade is indeed not a jade piece, but the texture of white jade.
