The notice about the case involving the Chen family and his son from the Customs and Excise Department that Li Xiaonan saw was hurriedly sent back by Li Xuedong during a break in class.
Including Mr. Chen, who has been raised at home, there are a total of seven lives among the three generations of the Chen family and ten people.
Li Xiaonan slowly read the notice word by word. Every life was a thrilling battle. There must be countless lives that had been lost long ago and no one knew about.
Seeing this notice made Li Xiaonan feel dejected and cold.
"Anan, are you okay?" Sister Mei came close to Li Xiaonan and looked at her face worriedly.
"It's okay, I'm scared." Li Xiaonan straightened her back and shook the notice, "Tell me from the top, the Chen family has seven lives in their hands."
"Hey! Is this the young lady who wiped her neck in the theater?" Sister Mei's eyes widened, "Seven lives? What a sin!"
"Three are officers from the Inspection Office, and two are colleagues from the Customs and Excise Department. The Chen family is very vicious." Li Xiaonan and Sister Mei explained the contents of the notice in detail.
In the past year or so, Sister Mei has gone from dark and skinny to white and fat, and has also gone from few words to talkative. She can chat with people no matter where she goes.
People who do small businesses around, servants from various families, people who do hair and tailoring, etc., these people who deal with Sister Mei call their family Aunt Mei’s family.
Explain clearly the Chen family's case to Sister Mei, and Sister Mei can quickly convey it to these people, and then these people will spread the word.
Do your best.
The next day, just as Li Xiaonan was about to go out, Wan Qing came to the door.
Li Xiaonan let Wan Qing in. Wan Qing entered the courtyard and looked around, then stretched her head to look into the main courtyard. She retreated behind the screen wall, looked around again, and asked in a low voice: "Is there anything in this courtyard?"
Are you human? Can you talk here?"
"Yes, what's the matter?" Li Xiaonan stretched her head over and asked in a low voice.
"Our cousin asked me to invite you over. Don't nod your head yet. Listen to what I have to say!" Wan Qing said angrily, facing Li Xiaonan who had already begun to nod.
"Yeah, you tell me."
"It's not that our cousin is in trouble. Our cousin is also very upset. It's Madam Shi. She wants to see you!"
Li Xiaonan's eyes widened.
"Listen to me!" Wan Qing patted Li Xiaonan. "It's true that the eldest lady is going back. She has started to pack her things.
"Our cousin is a cautious person. You know that. To be more formal, my cousin called me over and told me about it yesterday evening.
"But at noon yesterday, Yinxing came over to have dinner with me. First he talked about a lot of flowers and grass, and then he said that the eldest lady was really thinking about it, saying that Yulan had told her several times.
, Yulan said that her eldest wife is very grateful to you, Yulan said that she is also very grateful to you.
"At that time, I thought, why is Yinxing telling me this? What does she want to do? Has the eldest lady done anything to make you sorry? In the evening, I heard our cousin say that the eldest lady wants to say goodbye to you in person.
Son, I just realized that this is why I dare to love you.
"Let me tell you, our cousin is our cousin. We have been friends with the eldest lady since childhood. It is also etiquette that the eldest lady wants to say goodbye to you in person. She will definitely not be able to refuse. I am a servant of our palace, and that is our cousin. She
If you ask me to come, I must come, right?
"It doesn't matter to you. If you want to see the eldest lady, just go. If you don't want to, just say you're not available. Or you can ask me to say that I haven't found you, that you have gone away and you won't be able to come back in the next few days."
"I really want to meet her. I think the lady is very nice." Li Xiaonan said with a smile.
"That's okay." Wan Qing looked frustrated and helpless against the naughty child, and patted Li Xiaonan on the shoulder, "Then let's go."
Li Xiaonan raised her voice to say hello to Sister Mei, walked out of the courtyard, got in the car and went to Bieye.
Wan Qing accompanied Li Xiaonan and followed the little girl waiting inside the second door, and entered a small heating pavilion not far away. Not long after, Mrs. Shi also arrived.
Wan Qing saw Magnolia stopped at the steps of Nuan Pavilion. After hesitating for a moment, she left Nuan Pavilion and stood next to Yulan.
Mrs. Shi looked at Li Xiaonan and said with a smile: "We will set off back to the capital the day after tomorrow."
"Bon voyage." Li Xiaonan smiled.
"I was supposed to come and say thank you, but I was afraid of being too intrusive, so I boldly invited the girl over. Please forgive me." Mrs. Shi bent her knees slightly.
"You're welcome, Mrs. Shi. It's indeed more convenient for me to come here." Li Xiaonan looked carefully at Mrs. Shi's complexion, which was very good.
Mrs. Shi was silent for a moment, looked at Li Xiaonan and said: "Is Miss Li's life-long event looking at the Crown Prince?"
"What do you mean by looking at the prince?" Li Xiaonan asked, and then she realized, "You mean, am I thinking about marrying the prince?"
Mrs. Shi raised her eyebrows slightly, then smiled and said: "Miss Li is still more straightforward than me."
"I have never thought about it. First, the prince's family is in the capital. After finishing the official business here, he has to go back. I don't want to leave Pingjiang Mansion, let alone my sister and brother. This is my home. p>
"Secondly, our family and I are too far away from the Crown Prince and Prince Rui's Mansion. It would be best if we are of the same family.
"Thirdly, the prince and I get along as friends. We are really friends. Although he is very good-looking, I never felt that he..."
Li Xiaonan paused in her words, swallowed hard the word seductive, thought for a while and said:
"When I'm with him, it's just like when I'm with you. I've never blushed or had any feelings for him. I don't think he's ever had any romantic feelings for me. You should be able to feel this too.
, right?"
Mrs. Shi looked stunned.
Blushing, heartbeat, secret feelings, has she ever experienced this? What about him to her?
Li Xiaonan turned her head slightly and looked at Mrs. Shi who was in a daze.
"It's all in accordance with etiquette." Mrs. Shi came back to her senses and answered randomly.
"Etiquette cannot prevent this, and feelings cannot be hidden, especially in front of someone like the eldest lady." Li Xiaonan said with a smile.
"I thought..." Mrs. Shi paused and lowered her eyes. For a moment, she raised her eyes to look at Li Xiaonan, "Even if Miss Li does not marry into Prince Rui's palace, the friendship between Miss Li and the Crown Prince..."<
/p>
Mrs. Shi paused again for a moment, then smiled and said: "I hope to exchange letters with Miss Li frequently. Miss Li must not just want to spend her whole life caring for her husband and raising children, right?"
"I just want to do business and make some money, at least that's what I think now. If the eldest lady doesn't mind, I am willing to correspond with the eldest lady.
"Madam, please send the letter to Biye first, and ask Wan Qing to forward it to me. When Wan Qing returns to the capital, I will discuss with Madam where to send it." Li Xiaonan smiled broadly.
"Thank you." Madam Shi smiled and bent her knees towards Li Xiaonan.
