Chapter 123: Something Happened (2nd Update)
The shopkeeper listened to the young man's words and glared at him.
Bai Guo praised the young man, although the head was bought by He Wanying, but the price was increased by three hundred taels by the young man, knowing that He Wanying was wronged, the unhappiness in Bai Guo's heart was gone.
Xiao Jinyue didn't expect that the head face was gone, although it was a pity in her heart, but she had no choice, so she had to pick another set of more luxurious and exquisite ones to give to Xiao Jinlan.
After buying the noodles, Xiao Jinyue planned to go to Juwei Pavilion for dinner before returning home.
When Bai Guo heard that he could also eat in the restaurant, he smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth.
When I arrived at Juwei Pavilion, the lobby on the first floor was already full, but fortunately, there was still a place in the private room on the second floor.
Xiao Jinyue took Bai Guo up the second floor along the wooden ladder, and when she passed by the private seat next to her, she happened to meet the concubine of the left servant of the household with two maids, Zou Xueman.
Xiao Jinyue didn't expect to meet Zou Xueman here, she didn't know her well, nodded at her and prepared to turn sideways.
Suddenly, Xiao Jinyue's gaze paused on the jewelry on her head.
Sensing Xiao Jinyue's gaze, Bai Guo, who was following behind, also followed curiously.
In the face of Xiao Jinyue and the maid's scrutiny, He Wanying didn't say a word, just raised her head and let them look.
Bai Guo suddenly sighed, "Girl, isn't that the set of pink purple begonia pearls in Fengxiang Pavilion?" ”
A maid behind Zou Xueman snorted, "Even if you have a vision, you recognize this as Fengxiang Pavilion's jewelry." ”
Bai Guo glanced at the maid and said strangely, "But wasn't this face bought by He Wanying, how could it be on your girl's head?" ”
The maid raised her head proudly, "That was given to my girl by He Wanying." ”
Bai Guo sighed and sighed, "It seems that He Wanying is really generous to your girl, and the head of 1,300 taels was given away like this." ”
The maid said disdainfully, "What is 1,300 taels, this face was bought by Miss He for 1,800 taels." ”
Questioned by the maid, Bai Guo said unhappily, "Impossible, we just went to Fengxiang Pavilion, and that young man clearly said that this face was sold for 1,300 taels." ”
"Are you sure?"
"Absolutely." Shortly after coming out of Fengxiang Pavilion, Bai Guo believed that he was definitely not mistaken.
Seeing that Bai Guo said it categorically, the maid couldn't help but believe it a little, and turned to Zou Xueman and said, "But, girl, He Wanying is obviously ......."
He Wanying glared at the maid dissatisfied, and interrupted her without waiting for her to finish, "Okay, if you have anything to say, I'll talk about it later." ”
Although the maid's words were not finished, looking at her dissatisfied look and He Wanying's annoyed face, Xiao Jinyue knew that He Wanying had lied to them, and praised her head for 1,300 taels to 1,800 taels.
Xiao Jinyue was secretly happy, the last time she was in Jinyuanzheng Firm, Zou Xueman helped He Wanying to make the shopkeeper refuse to supply them with cane sugar, and the noisy horse also spoke out to defend He Wanying that time, and now she knows that she was deceived, and I don't know if the friendship boat between the two will capsize.
She guessed well, Zou Xueman now wanted to scratch He Wanying's slut all over her face, but a lowly merchant girl dared to deceive her, and what annoyed her the most was that Xiao Jinyue knew about it.
Seeing that Xiao Jinyue just nodded casually and wanted to leave, Zou Xueman was secretly annoyed, and blocked the way with a sideways body.
"Miss Xiao, there are some people you can't covet, I advise you to recognize your identity and don't think about getting what you don't deserve."
Xiao Jinyue looked inexplicable, who did she covet?
"Miss Zou, are you too lenient?"
Not to mention that she didn't covet anyone at all, even if she did, did she have anything to do with her, this suddenly came out to warn her, what's going on.
Xiao Jinyue didn't wait for her to speak, threw down this sentence, and turned around and entered the private room with Bai Guo.
It's hard to get a meal in a restaurant, and she doesn't want to affect her appetite because of inexplicable people and inexplicable words.
Zou Xueman saw that Xiao Jinyue didn't care about him at all, so he stomped his feet angrily, turned around and entered the private room next door.
After Xiao Er served tea, Xiao Jinyue ordered a few signature dishes, and even if Bai Guo and the little guy driving the car were out of the house, they remembered their identity and refused to eat at the same table with Xiao Jinyue.
Xiao Jinyue had no choice but to ask Xiao Er to order one for them too.
The dishes at Juwei Pavilion are not very amazing, but the taste is okay and the ingredients are fresh.
After walking around Ciguang Temple for so long, although I had a fast meal at noon, I had already digested it, Xiao Jinyue was eating with chopsticks, and suddenly there was movement by the window.
"Squeak Squeak"
Xiao Jinyue stopped her chopsticks, looked sideways at the window, and was surprised to find that Chi Yan was jumping in through the carved window. It's the second floor, and I don't know how it got up.
Since this little guy followed her down the mountain, he often ran out happily every day like the dragon that saw no end in sight.
At first, Xiao Jinyue was still a little worried about its safety, but later saw that it did not encounter any danger, so he went with it.
Hearing the movement, Bai Guo turned his head and saw that it was Chiyan, and immediately said happily, "Hey, girl, it's Chiyan." It's amazing that they can find us. ”
Bai Guo always thought that Chiyan was a little squirrel, but he didn't know that it was actually a treasure hunting mouse. Chi Yan's most powerful skill is to find things, and it is naturally not a problem to find people.
Xiao Jinyue just wanted to stretch out his hand to call Chi Yan over to eat, but the little guy said anxiously, "Girl, hurry up, your life-saving benefactor is about to die." ”
Xiao Jinyue wrinkled her eyebrows, what life-saving benefactor is dying?
Seeing that Xiao Jinyue was confused, Chi Yan was anxious, raised a chubby paw and pointed out the window, "He was poisoned and is about to die." ”
Seeing that Chiyan was so anxious that he was about to jump to his feet, Xiao Jinyue put down the chopsticks in his hand, walked quickly to the carved window and looked out, only to see that at the other end of the long street, the prince of Zhenguo was riding on a horse and was coming to Juwei Pavilion.
Chiyan has always heard the people in the house call Miss Xiao Jinyue, and it will be called a girl. Seeing Xiao Jinyue standing still, don't be in a hurry to pull her sleeve with her fluffy paws and say, "Girl, he's poisoned, save people." ”
I don't know how Chiyan could be with the prince of Zhenguo, but this is not the time to pay attention to this matter.
Xiao Jinyue frowned slightly, it was still a little far away, and the sky was slowly darkening at this time, she couldn't see the face of the prince of Zhenguo clearly, and she couldn't tell if he was really poisoned.
After staring at it for a while, she noticed that the horse of the prince of Zhenguo was walking very slowly, and although he had been sitting upright on the horse, he gave people a shaky feeling.
As the horse got closer and closer, although Xiao Jinyue still couldn't see clearly, her intuition told her that something had happened to the prince of Zhenguo, otherwise with his skills, he wouldn't even be unstable on a horse.
Bai Guo couldn't understand the beast language, and when he saw Chi Yan, he looked so anxious that he jumped to his feet, but he didn't know what he was going to do. Curious, he also walked to the window and looked out.
"Hey, girl, isn't that the prince of Zhenguo?"
Bai Guo's exclamation seemed to alarm the people in the private room next to him, and he vaguely seemed to hear someone walking towards the window.
Xiao Jinyue quickly took out a silver ticket from his sleeve pocket and put it on the table, and whispered to Bai Guo and the coachman, "Don't eat, come with me." ”
