"To tell you the truth, the lady upstairs is related to the ancestor of the He family here. She was found from the capital."
However, Guo Song still looked at Ji Wenxuan with a suspicious look on his face and said, "Sir, please don't lie to me. I grew up in Qingshiban Township, and I have never heard that Mrs. He has such a distant relative from the capital?
Otherwise, why didn’t she go looking for you when she was down and why did she ask you to find her instead?”
"Didn't you say before that this Mrs. He is an extremely strong-willed person? Even if she falls down, she is not willing to reach out for help."
Ji Wenxuan stroked his gray beard and said leisurely, "Since you have been born here since you were a child, and you have helped the Wang family, you naturally have a way to let Wang Yuan and He family "accidentally" know that they have a daughter from afar.
Are you here to look for your dear relatives?"
Guo Song lowered his head and thought for a while, "There is a way. But why don't you just come and visit? Wouldn't it be faster than me?"
Ji Wenxuan lowered his voice and said, "You don't know that our wife has been to other families before, but those children, as soon as they heard that our wife was looking for an heir, they used all kinds of martial arts to please our wife. But carefully
A closer look reveals that everyone is proficient in eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling, and they are extremely naughty."
"There is really nothing we can do. Madam suddenly remembered that she still has distant relatives in Chenliu, so she came to find you."
After hearing this, Guo Song smiled and said, "Those young masters, eight out of ten are like this. If I hadn't been behind the things Wang Yu did to cover him up, I'm afraid that all the family troubles would have been done long ago."
Got hit on the butt.”
"So, our wife came up with an idea to stay nearby first, carefully inquire about the details of the children in this family, and then explain the purpose of their visit. Wouldn't this save a lot of trouble."
Guo Song sighed and nodded, "That's true."
"Hey, no, then why do you want them to know that you are here to find relatives?"
Ji Wenxuan retracted his hand stroking his beard and said with a proud smile, "Wouldn't it be more exciting if there is news that seems like nothing?"
Ji Wenxuan looked at Guo Song's expression and patted Guo Song on the shoulder, "You will understand this in the future."
Guo Song grinned awkwardly: I really don't understand the tricks of you rich people.
Sheng Shaoqing stood behind Ji Wenxuan and watched his nonsense. Poor kid Guo Song, he was so young that he was about to be deceived by the old man Ji Wenxuan until he even lost his pants.
"Cough-cough-cough"
"Madam, you."
"lady!"
Ji Wenxuan and Guo Song both turned around. As soon as they saw the person coming, Guo Song immediately smeared the soles of his feet and ran away with only the words "Sir, please wait for my good news."
"Why did Madam come downstairs?"
Sheng Shaoqing thought to himself that if I don't come down, I will have another big boy!
"It's okay. I just came down to take a look. I didn't expect that you are discussing a big plan together?"
Ji Wenxuan smiled awkwardly, "It happened suddenly, and my old servant didn't have time."
Sheng Shaoqing waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay, but I'm just curious, what are you going to do next?"
You can't really claim a child and take it back, can you?
"When the old servant came, he took a look out of the window in the car and realized that the countryside has a unique scenery. Madam, why don't you go out for a walk?"
Sheng Shaoqing saw that Ji Wenxuan was looking around and said that he didn't want to say anything, so he couldn't ask further, so he just nodded, "That's fine."
As soon as Aning and Forsythia heard that Sheng Shaoqing was going out, their waists and backs no longer hurt, and they immediately followed her out.
Cui Yun shook his head helplessly from behind, and said to Sheng Shaoqing with a smile, "They are not here to serve the lady, I think they are clearly here to have fun!"
Instead, Aning and Forsythia made faces at the door and said to Cui Yun, "Madam didn't say anything. Doesn't Cui Nvshi think it's new outside?"
"Hey! I see you have become a lot more courageous after leaving the house!"
Sheng Shaoqing also raised his forehead and said, "It's not only a lot bigger, but they almost demolished the inn for me just now when you weren't here."
Cui Yun curled his lips, "That's not what Madam is used to."
"It's okay to be a little bit arrogant in the inn. If you continue to act like this when you go out, be careful that others think we have no rules in our house!"
An Ning and Lian Qiao knew that Cui Yun was trying to remind them. They looked at each other and replied seriously, "I understand, Cui Nu Shi."
The group of people went downstairs in a lively manner. Sheng Shaoqing accidentally caught a glimpse of the shopkeeper standing nearby with red and swollen eyes, and quietly asked Ji Wenxuan who was waiting at the stairs, "What's going on?"
Ji Wenxuan turned around to look at Bai Qing's face. Before he could speak, a drunken guest happened to see Bai Qing's expression, so he made a few teasing remarks, but Bai Qing choked on every word he said.
When he returned, the man suddenly felt disgraced and raised his hand to hit Bai Qing.
Sheng Shaoqing glanced at her, and Lin Jin stepped forward and grabbed the rude guest's arm, "Don't be rude!"
The drunk man staggered and said, "I'm totally rude, what do you want me to do?!"
Then he looked at Bai Qing and Lin Jin with a lewd smile, "What do I mean, the boss lady is so indifferent to me today, why, if you have a pretty boy, why don't you stay with me for a long time? A hero saves a beauty? Bah!
"
Bai Qing looked angrily and was about to retort when Sheng Shaoqing walked over and said, "Of course."
"Since I have a pretty boy, how can I still want a rich guy like you?"
"Don't you have a mirror in your house?"
"Oh!" Sheng Shaoqing looked at him with a look of regret and said, "Is it possible that your family is too poor to afford a mirror?"
The drunk man said angrily, "Nonsense!"
"How can my family not afford a mirror?"
After saying that, the man realized something was wrong belatedly, "No, why should I buy a mirror!"
"Of course I'll take care of your dignity."
"The head is empty, the belly is full, the mouth is full of stench, and the whole body is full of bad luck."
"You!", the drunk man was completely angered, but due to the large number of people behind Sheng Shaoqing, and Lin Jin looked even more fierce, he had no choice but to move out of the back and said in a deep voice, "Do you know who I am?!"
Sheng Shaoqing seemed to be frightened by this tone, "Hey, who are you?"
Didn't she say that among all of you here, considering your status, who has a stronger background than her?
For the first time, Sheng Shaoqing directly felt the confidence and arrogance brought by his identity. His intuition was smooth, and even the dizziness caused by the carriage ride was completely gone.
"Humph", the man was even more confident, "My uncle is the mayor here!"
"oh."
What is this reaction?
The man's self-confidence, which he had been domineering for many years, was completely shattered by Sheng Shaoqing's word "oh". Just as he was about to explode, Sheng Shaoqing said leisurely, "Your uncle is my niece's son-in-law."
"In terms of seniority, what do you have to call me?"
Sheng Shaoqing turned to look at Ji Wenxuan, "Butler, please help me figure it out, what should he call me?"
Ji Wenxuan thought about it silently, "Wang Xiangzheng calls you aunt, and Wang Xiangzheng is my uncle, so he has to call you aunt."
"Come on, my dear grandnephew, can you call my aunt to come and listen?"
Sheng Shaoqing imitated the way this man teased Bai Qing and asked him to call her too.
The drunk man looked Sheng Shaoqing up and down and saw that her clothes were extraordinary and her tone was so arrogant. He was a little convinced, but he still said stubbornly, "Why didn't I know that my aunt has a relative like you?!"
"Then don't you know now?"
"you!"
The man was about to pounce on him with all his teeth and claws under the influence of alcohol. Lin Jin exerted force on his wrist, and the man immediately felt a chill rush up his limbs, and then he screamed "Ah!"
"How dare you be disrespectful to Madam, I'm just teaching you a lesson this time! Next time, it won't be as simple as a dislocation."
"What?!" The man's eyes widened in disbelief, "I'm dislocated?!"
Lin Jin raised his eyebrows, "You'll know if you try it?"
The man was shocked to find that the hand he had just raised suddenly lost consciousness and fell down with a "thud".
"You! You! How dare you!"
The man was furious, but he couldn't beat the "boy" in front of him, so he turned around and left angrily, "Just wait for me!"
The crowd that had just gathered around to watch the fun also dispersed. Sheng Shaoqing whispered to Ji Wen, "How is it? Is my move much faster than that Guo Song?"
Ji Wenxuan looked at Sheng Shaoqing in surprise. He thought the Queen Mother was really just complaining.
Sheng Shaoqing walked up to Bai Qing and asked, "Are you okay?"
Bai Qing said stubbornly, "I'm fine, I. I can handle it myself!"
Who wants her help?!
Sheng Shaoqing nodded, "That's it."
"Ajun, let's go."
Sheng Shaoqing turned around and was about to go out, but Bai Qing whispered behind Sheng Shaoqing, "Don't think that if you sell well, I will let you take Guo Song away!"
Sheng Shaoqing looked back at Bai Qing in a funny way and walked straight out.
As soon as she walked out of the inn, Sheng Shaoqing took a big breath of fresh air. It was really hard to talk to the drunk man just now, and the smell of alcohol almost killed her.
"Hey, steward, why doesn't the accounting department come with us?"
Only then did Sheng Shaoqing remember that Yunzhi seemed to be missing from the group of people behind her.
Ji Wenxuan smiled awkwardly, "The accountant was so tired that he fell asleep."
He originally wanted to inform Yun Zhi, but as soon as he returned to the room, he was persuaded by Yun Zhi's deafening snoring. He quickly withdrew and waited for the Queen Mother downstairs.
After this incident, it was really difficult for him to associate the honorary title of Beautiful Beard Gong with Yunzhi.
The handsome man with fluttering beard looks handsome even when he is lying down, but he is snoring loudly.
This... really ruins the beauty of the picture.
It seems that Yunzhi worked too hard these days and finally managed to get some sleep. He had better not disturb Yunzhi's dream.
Sheng Shaoqing nodded, "Then what will happen to him alone?"
"It's okay. In addition to the people who are following us openly, there is also a group of secret guards who have already disguised themselves as common people and sneaked in here in advance, so Madam doesn't have to worry about his safety."
"But...how did the Queen Mother know that I asked Guo Song to summon me?"
He remembered that when he and Guo Song were talking about this, the Queen Mother was not behind them. If the Queen Mother was there, how could he not notice anything?
Sheng Shaoqing was stunned, ah.?
Can she say she cheated?
"I was right behind you just now, so naturally I heard it."
Ji Wenxuan frowned, but didn't ask any more questions.
Sheng Shaoqing immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this. Fortunately, Ji Wenxuan didn't become suspicious at all.
"However, Wang Yuan will soon know that I am pretending to be his aunt. What should I do next?"
Although Ji Wenxuan did not expect that Sheng Shaoqing would come up with such a move, now that the Empress Dowager has spoken out, it doesn't seem to be a bad thing now.
"How could Madam be a fake?"
Um??
"When the He family fell into decline, Mrs. He's grandfather did indeed have a young brother who was accidentally lost by a servant. Since then, he has been living abroad without a trace."
"Then I will pretend to be Mrs. He's cousin's grandfather's daughter?"
Ji Wenxuan nodded, "Actually, as long as it can be said, Wang Yuan will definitely take the bait."
"A person who is stupid enough to send his own son to jail to plead guilty for others will definitely not let him go as long as he is given some benefit."
Sheng Shaoqing vaguely understood Ji Wenxuan's intention and said loudly to Cui Yun, "Ajun, let's go to the jewelry store!"
As soon as they entered the store, before the waiter came up to greet them, Sheng Shaoqing whispered a few words to Aning and Forsythia.
Aning still had some doubts, but Forsythia had already stepped forward and said to the waiter, "Bring up all the best jewelry you have here."
Upon hearing this, the waiter's eyes immediately gleamed, and he rushed into the backyard with wind on his feet. He found the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper! Big business is coming!"
After hearing this, the shopkeeper took the key, turned around and went to the warehouse to get the most expensive noodles in the store, and brought them out with a smile, "Madam, you are here to welcome us. It's hard to welcome her from afar!"
Sheng Shaoqing coughed in a low voice, and Aning took it from the shopkeeper and placed the jewelry in front of Sheng Shaoqing.
Although Sheng Shaoqing had no research on jewelry, but comparing these with the palace jewelry she had seen before, this set of jadeite heads and faces were more than exquisite, but not enough water-rich, so she coughed heavily.
Aning understood, "Shopkeeper, is this your best jewelry?"
The shopkeeper was wondering whether the lady was mute or had a bad voice. Hearing Aning's question, he became a little angry and said, "That's natural."
"Don't fool me. The price is not an issue. Just go and get the best one."
The shopkeeper was confused, "Our shop is located in the countryside, and these are the best. But if Madam is still not satisfied, the young ones can be transferred from other places."
An Ning glanced at Sheng Shaoqing, Sheng Shaoqing nodded, and An Ning said, "How many days will it take you to adjust the goods?"
The shopkeeper immediately replied, "Just in the next couple of days."
"Then if you have something good, just bring it to Tongfu Inn."
After saying that, Sheng Shaoqing took a group of people out. After that, Sheng Shaoqing took them to many stores. This whole process was followed in the same way, and the news of a wealthy lady coming to Qingshiban Township spread like wildfire.
Only Ji Wenxuan silently followed behind, calculating how much money Sheng Shaoqing would get from this trip, and wailed in his heart: Queen Mother, you've had a good time!
However, Sheng Shaoqing was addicted to acting all the way. Just as he was about to step into the silk and satin shop, Ji Wenxuan stopped him in front, "Madam, you have been shopping for so long, do you want to take a rest and have a sip of tea?"
