Chapter 23 Returning the Pearl
Shen Mingzhu smiled: "It doesn't matter, as long as Cousin Xing Nong likes it."

She was secretly proud that one person's goodness was revealed by another person's evilness.

This bastard dared to open his mouth like a lion, that's okay!

In such a comparison, everyone knows who is good and who is disgusting.

"Miss, you are so kind-hearted! You give her something every time, but she thinks you are being taken advantage of! You see, as soon as you said give it away, she picked three extra pieces of satin, satin! Hundreds of pieces of satin! One horse for Wen! Three horses are more than one tael! She’s so embarrassing!"

There were two people who didn't pay attention to what Xing Nong wanted just now, but now they looked at Xing Nong differently, full of disgust.

"Girl, this kind of person is greedy, be careful not to climb up on you, don't give it away!"

"I originally bought two feet of linen, but I saw someone said that I would give you three bolts of satin. I'm not going to grab it! I've never seen such a shameless person! Don't give it away!"

Shen Mingzhu smiled: "It's okay. Cousin Xingnong is not that kind of person. She doesn't want anything I give her. Cousin Xingnong, what do you want? You can pick and choose if you don't have enough!"

Xing Nong ignored her this time.

At this time, the maid came out with two feet of black linen, smiled and said to Xing Nong: "Girl, two feet of black linen is twenty renminbi, and three bolts of satin are a total of one or two halves. The two add up to one or two and 520 renminbi!"

Everyone: "."

Shen Mingzhu and Yao's expressions changed.

Someone was surprised: "This girl wanted three bolts of satin?"

Someone nodded and said, "I just wanted to say that the girl bought three bolts of satin!"

The cloth seller: "That's right! I picked three pieces of satin as soon as I came in! What's the matter?"

Xing Nong lowered his head and took out two silver nuggets and twenty Wen that he had prepared long ago.

The maid took Xing Nong's money.

Shen Mingzhu came back to her senses, and immediately said: "Cousin Xingnong, I'll see you off as agreed!"

She quickly took out two taels of silver and handed it to the maid: "I'll pay the silver."

Yao Shi also hurriedly said: "Yes, Xing Nong, we can just pay!"

Looking back, I can't feel sorry for the one tael of silver. If they don't buy it for her, their reputation will be ruined!
Xing Nong glanced at them indifferently, "Are you acting enough? Don't bother me!"

Shen Mingzhu thought of something and backed away in fright.

The cloth seller glanced at Xing Nong, then at Shen Mingzhu, not knowing what happened, she gave Xing Nong five hundred cash.

Xing Nong took it, stuffed the three pieces of cloth into the pannier, and left directly.

When Xing Nong left, everyone came back.

"What do you mean by that girl saying that she has acted enough?"

"You still don't understand? He didn't want to give it away at all. He pretended to be generous and gave it on purpose. He thought that he only bought two feet of linen, but who knew he bought three bolts of satin. He didn't want to give it away! So let the maid say something to humiliate her. , don’t you need to send it?”

"Tsk tsk, don't give it away if you don't want to give it up! Did they force her!"

"Maybe I didn't plan to give it away in the first place, it was on purpose, I didn't hear the girl ask her if she had acted enough?"

"Disgusting! Pretending to be generous!"

Shen Mingzhu and Yao Shi couldn't tell what they were suffering, so they fled in despair.

Worry about being recognized.

They dare not go to this cloth village again!

~
In the carriage, the more she thought about it, the more something went wrong in Shen Mingzhu's mind: "Tell me, did that bastard know that I wouldn't give it away, and deliberately agreed? She always refused before!"

Yao Shi shook his head: "I don't know, but that bastard has changed since the reporter was banned! You should avoid provoking her from now on."

Yao shi couldn't even guess what she played the cards according to!

I thought I would be tricked, and I felt uncomfortable, so I wanted to teach her a lesson, but I didn't expect that it would be even more uncomfortable if I didn't get tricked now!
Yao shi regretted, "The one or two taels of silver should have been paid out just now!"

Shen Mingzhu nodded, thinking of everyone's eyes and words just now, she was so uncomfortable that her reputation was gone!

God knows how hard it is to have a well-known good name!
She couldn't help but slap the servant girl directly on the face: "It's all your fault! What nonsense are you talking about!"

The servant girl's face was swollen from the beating, she glanced at Yao Shi with grievance, lowered her head, not daring to refute.

Xing Nong left the cloth village, and when she passed the Yingbin Building, a simple and elegant black carriage passed by her, and then stopped in front of the steps of the restaurant.

Xing Nong took a look and recognized that the carriage belonged to Zhu Zhu's owner, so he walked over.

A cold and handsome figure got off the carriage.

The morning sun shone on the man's clear and handsome face, and his fair skin was dyed with a halo.

Chu Tiankuo got off the carriage and saw Xing Nong at a glance, but he walked directly to the Yingbin Building without any pause in his eyes.

"My lord, please stop." Xing Nong stopped him and walked towards him.

Song Bai came to Xing Nong in a flash, reached out to stop her, and looked at her vigilantly: "Girl, please respect yourself!"

His son is not close to women, but there are always women who want to get close to him shamelessly.

Chu Tiankuo turned his head and glanced at her, with a very calm expression on his face: "What's the matter?"

Xing Nong took out the beads and stretched out his hand: "Your beads."

Songbai's eyes widened: "Why is this bead on your body?"

Yesterday the master said that the beads were missing, and he searched for them all night, almost tearing down the yard and the carriage!
How could it be in her hands?
Did the master fall off the road?

Xing Nong: "I don't know."

Songbai froze for a moment: "..."

What is this answer?
"Thank you, miss." Chu Tiankuo thanked politely, and then said, "Songbai."

Songbai took the beads and said respectfully and politely: "Thank you, miss."

Unexpectedly, this girl's family is so poor, and she still has enough money.

Songbai took it for granted that Xing Nong picked up beads on the road again.

Xing Nong thought for a while and said to Chu Tiankuo, "I'm sorry, I accidentally touched your bead."

This bead has a secret that other people should not know, she said, if the other party knows the secret in the bead, he will understand it.

If he doesn't know the secret of the bead, then forget it, she won't remind her, so as not to cause trouble.

After Xing Nong finished speaking, he turned and left.

Chu Tiankuo was stunned for a moment, she went in?

Songbai took out a handkerchief and wiped the beads carefully before handing it to Chu Tiankuo.

Chu Tiankuo withdrew his gaze, took the beads, twirled the beads habitually with his slender white fingers, and suddenly stopped.

changed!

The inside has changed!

He thought she just went in and discovered the secret of the Creation Orb, but he didn't expect...

Chu Tiankuo quickly raised his head to look in the direction where Xing Nong left.

It's just that on the street, that petite and thin figure is no longer there.

I don't know which shop I went into.

"Master." Song Bai said in surprise seeing Chu Tiankuo not moving.

Chu Tiankuo withdrew his gaze and stuffed the beads into his purse casually. When he thought of something, he paused and instead of putting the purse, he held the beads and walked towards the Yingbin Building.

~
In the restaurant, shopkeeper Zhao stood outside the door and saluted respectfully, "My lord."

Chu Tiankuo nodded and walked in.

Shopkeeper Zhao was a few steps behind, went in with Songbai, and asked in a low voice, "Master, do you know that girl just now?"

"Well. Master suspects that she has something to do with the Liang family." Master asked him to check her, isn't it because he suspects her?

 Add one more, see you tomorrow~
