47 Daily annoyance at Auntie (1)
In this way, Xu Qi ‘an received one tael and four coins of silver. In addition to his original three coins and the one coin he picked up, he received two taels of silver in total.
And the gold buyao that Xu Qi ‘an had his eyes on was worth ten taels of silver.
He used the same method to help the three ladies solve the riddles, and finally gathered five taels of silver.
“It should be enough to buy a golden buyao, but I still have to buy one for aunt …”
“Young master?” The shopkeeper’s pale face interrupted Xu Qi ‘an’s deep thoughts.
Xu Qi ‘an looked at him in silence.
“Young master, can you please show some mercy?”
“Shopkeeper, your words are meaningless. You set the rules.”
“Young master, just tell me what you want.”
“I want to buy two gold buyao, but I only have enough silver for one … En, the half price kind.”
“I, I’ll see you off, young master.” The shop owner gritted his teeth.
“I’m sorry about that.”
“….. Please don’t come again, this old man will be very grateful.”
You can’t afford to play? Xu Qian walked away with his golden steps in satisfaction.
I’m not that kind of person, but the store manager is too polite.
As for the store manager’s feelings, he didn’t care. To be able to open such a store, 20 to 30 taels of silver was painful, but it wasn’t a big loss.
Moreover, since he was using this kind of strategy and benefited from it, he had to be prepared to meet an expert.
It didn’t make sense that only you could earn other people’s money and others couldn’t take advantage of you.
Not long after he left the shop, the hair on his back suddenly stood up, and his pores seemed to be pricked by fine needles.
This made his heart beat faster and his adrenaline rush.
Someone is following me … They’re looking at me … A hidden hostility … Xu Qi ‘an had a vague understanding.
Xu Qi ‘an remained calm and pretended that nothing had happened, but he was calculating in his heart.
‘Who’s following me …’ Treasure tool Pavilion? Obviously not. Although the shopkeeper looked like he wanted to beat me up, an expert who could make my hair stand on end definitely had a strong background. A mere treasure instrument Pavilion did not have such a talent.
Yun Lu Academy? That’s not right either. The great Confucians of Yun Lu Academy are all fighting to take me in as their disciple. Why would he be hostile to me?
It was the Zhou mansion!
At this stage, if there was anyone who harbored enmity towards him and was secretly monitoring him, it would definitely be the Zhou mansion.
Xu Qian’s heart trembled. His experience from his previous life told him that once you were being followed and monitored, it meant that the other party would make a move soon, or even tonight.
my intention to visit Yun Lu Academy was correct. Even if second uncle and I aren’t weak, the women in my family are. burden …
Xu Qi ‘an’s face was solemn. The plan to deal with the Zhou mansion could not be delayed.
After returning to the Xu mansion, Xu Qi ‘an immediately took out the military crossbow that he had exchanged with Song Qing, the Directorate of Celestials, from the cabinet. He hung it on his waist and tied the heart-protecting mirror to his chest.
Only then did he gain a little sense of security.
She climbed over the wall to the main house and saw Xu lingying chasing away a flock of geese in the backyard. She put her hands on her waist and stomped her feet hard, scaring the little geese into a panic and running around.
“Big brother, big brother, do you think I’m mighty?” Xu Ling saw that his big brother had returned and became even more proud.
“Where did the goose come from?” Xu Qi ‘an was stunned. It was clearly not there when he left home this morning.
“Mother asked someone to buy it and said that she raised it at home …” Xu Lingyin tilted her head and said, “”I forgot the rest.”
It was probably cheaper to raise them at home than to buy them outside … “Oh,” Xu Qi ‘an replied.”Be careful, don’t step on the goose. Don’t you have a goose?”
“The big goose is over there. I’ll go chase it out.” Xu lingying volunteered to enter the flowerbed with her short legs.
A few seconds later, the child’s shrieking like a pig being slaughtered was heard.
The bushes shook violently, and Xu lingying escaped while crying. She dragged a big white goose on her feet, biting her short leg.
She looked like she was about to die. big brother, help …
Xu Qi ‘an stood by and laughed like a pig.
…..
At dusk, second uncle Xu returned from his duty. He was dressed in military attire with a long saber and a military crossbow hanging from his waist. He looked like an eagle and a Wolf, and his temperament was completely different from when he was wearing ordinary clothes.
The three of them came to the study room. After Lu ‘e served them hot tea, she obediently left.
I’ve already arranged everything with my big brother, ” Xu cijiu said. we can send mother and sister to the Academy tomorrow. It just so happens that lingying is about to begin her enlightenment. The teacher father hired is not of good quality and can’t teach her, but the teacher in the Academy should be fine.
When Ling Ying heard this good news, she would definitely cry with joy … Xu Qi ‘an suddenly thought of the funny jokes he had used in his previous life to give a warm-hearted child a box of exercise books.
Second uncle Xu was overjoyed. This had undoubtedly solved one of his worries. The women in the family could be properly taken care of, and he would not have any worries.
“Farewell, it’s all thanks to you. I knew that letting you study was the best thing I’ve ever done in my life.”
“Father, it’s big brother’s credit. It has nothing to do with me,” Xu cijiu said, a little embarrassed.
“Ningyan?” Second uncle Xu looked at his nephew in surprise.
After listening to his son’s explanation, second uncle Xu said regretfully, “”Ningyan, the biggest mistake I’ve ever made in my life was to send you to practice martial arts.”
Second uncle Xu now believed that his nephew was a scholar.
‘I’m just using the knowledge I learned in my previous life effectively …’ “There’s something I need to tell second uncle,” Xu Qi ‘an said in a deep voice.”I was followed when I came back.” Farewell, what about you?”
The father and son’s expressions changed.
what? ” Xu niannian frowned. even if I’m being followed, how would I know? ”
He was only a scholar in the Enlightenment state.
Second uncle Xu stood up and paced back and forth anxiously. He said in a deep voice, “”Ningyan, you’ll stay in the residence tonight. We’ll stay closer so we can take care of each other.
in addition, I’ll go out later to inform the Royal sword guards and ask them to increase the intensity of their patrols in the vicinity.
Xu niannian and Xu Qi ‘an looked at each other, their hearts heavy.
…….
During the meal, Xu Qi ‘an glanced at his sister, Xu lingyue, who was eating elegantly. He coughed to attract the attention of the family.
He took out a small red wooden box with the words ” treasure instrument Pavilion ” carved on it and slowly opened it. It was an exquisitely made gold buyao with an exquisitely carved flower head inlaid with pearls, and thin gold tassels hung down.
Without looking at the style, just the weight of the gold was enough to make the whole family look at it.
Xu lingyue and her aunt were dumbfounded. Two pairs of big kaziland eyes stared at Jin buyao.
Jewelry like Jin buyao had always been sought after by the daughters and women of rich families because of its fine workmanship and expensive materials. Ordinary women could not afford to wear such good jewelry.
His aunt used to have a golden ornament carved with flowers, which was a treasure.
Xu Qi ‘an was a single man. Naturally, he would not buy a gold buyao for no reason. There were only two women in the family who were suitable to wear it. As the matriarch of the family …
A smile bloomed on auntie’s beautiful face, and her eyes turned gentle. “At least you still have some conscience. Hand it over …”
Xu Qi ‘an placed the Golden dangling ornament in front of Xu lingyue.”Sister, this is for you!”
Xu lingyue’s eyes widened in disbelief. The jewelry of precious artifact store was very famous in this area. The workmanship was fine and exquisite, and it was very popular with the girls and women of the rich families nearby.
“Thank you, big brother.” Her beautiful face revealed a sincere smile, and her eyes curved like crescent moons.
The aunt’s body trembled as her chest heaved up and down in anger. Her eyes reddened as she questioned second uncle, ”
“Tell me, do you want me or your nephew?”
She and this little rascal were irreconcilable.
Second uncle Xu glared at his nephew and quickly picked up some food for his wife. “Calm down, don’t lower yourself to the same level as this stinky brat.”
Xu Qi ‘an felt someone kick her in the leg. She looked up at Xu niannian beside her.
Xu Erlang lowered his head and continued eating.
