Female Queen: My wife is Aunt Wu

Chapter 24
The three of them came to the new house. At this time, Liu Yue was playing in the yard. When she saw Pan An, she ran over excitedly and said, "Pan An, are you here to play with me?"

"Miss, Mr. Pan is here to see the master," the housekeeper said.

"No, I want to play with Pan An. Pan An plays with me!" Liu Yue coquettishly said.

At this moment, Master Liu's voice came from behind, "Yue'er, don't be presumptuous."

After hearing Master Liu's scolding, Liu Yue immediately became obedient. It was obvious that she was afraid of her father.

Mr. Liu stood at the door of the room and said, "Butler, take Yue'er to play elsewhere. Let Pan An come in alone. I have a few words to say to him."

"Yes, Mr. Pan, please invite me!" the steward said.

Pan An nodded and said to Wu Zhaoniang: "I'll go over first, you just wait for me here."

"it is good."

Under Wu Zhaoniang's gaze, Pan An entered the house.

The room has been cleaned up. Mr. Liu is sitting next to the bed, and lying on the bed is the motionless Old Mrs. Liu. The other person is awake at this time, with her eyes open, but she cannot move or speak.

"The deepest thing about this person is desire. No matter how many times she is warned, she will not change. So what can we do? If we don't want to do it, then everyone should stop it." Mr. Liu said to himself.

Pan An stood aside and said nothing, just watching and listening quietly.He knew that these words were meant for Mrs. Liu and himself.

"Pan An, I married you to Wu Zhaoniang, have you ever complained about me?" Mr. Liu looked at Pan An and asked.

"Yes." Pan An said.

"Ah!" Mr. Liu was stunned for a moment. After all, most people would definitely say no to this kind of thing. Pan An's answer was a bit unexpected.

"It was true at the beginning. After all, Zhao Niang has a bit of that. But after getting along with her for more than half a month, I got used to it and I feel okay." Pan An said.

Mr. Liu smiled and couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that you are telling the truth. It's good to tell the truth. I like to tell the truth. It won't do anything if you say it pretending to be like someone else."

"Master, why did you come to see me?" Pan An asked.

"Nothing important, just a few words."

Mr. Liu stood up and came to the table, opened the box on the table, and said to Pan An: "These are some good rouge, gouache, and a few strings of jewelry. When you got married before, the Liu family didn't give you any What, I am really treating you badly. I have actually prepared these things for a long time, but I have never been able to find the opportunity, but I caught up today. "

"Master, this won't work, it's too expensive." Looking at the gold and silver jewelry in the box, Pan An quickly shook his head in rejection.

"Take it, it's a little bit of my thoughts, don't be embarrassed." Mr. Liu stuffed the box into Pan An's arms.

Seeing this, Pan An was too embarrassed to refuse anymore, so he just accepted it.

Mr. Liu sat on the chair, held his forehead with his hands and sighed, looked at Pan An and said: "People are sometimes impulsive and then calm down afterwards. Some are too late, and some are too late. You are okay, I can still To compensate you, if you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to me."

"Well, thank you, sir."

"You're welcome, go ahead and let me be alone." After saying that, Mr. Liu shook his hand.

"Yes, then I'll leave first." After saying that, Pan An walked out of the house carrying the box.

Outside the house, Wu Zhaoniang was still waiting nervously. She was afraid that Mr. Liu would have some other purposes, such as persuading Pan An to stay, or finding another family for Pan An.

Seeing Pan An coming out, Wu Zhaoniang hurriedly stepped forward to greet her and asked with concern: "Are you okay? Mr. Liu didn't make things difficult for you, right?"

"It's okay, it's just a chat. Give me some gifts by the way." Pan An said, patting the box in his hand.

"A gift?" Wu Zhaoniang looked at the box in Pan An's hand and asked doubtfully: "Why did he give you a gift? Isn't he supposed to hate you?" Pan An's lips curled up slightly and he said: "Haven't you heard that sentence? There are no permanent friends or others, only eternal interests. As long as it is beneficial, you can be a friend."

"Benefit?"

"Let's go, let's talk when we go back."

Inside the house, Mr. Liu stood at the window, holding a string of Buddhist beads and chanting, looking at Pan An's leaving figures.

"Amitabha!"

After leaving Liu Mansion, Pan An and the two walked on the street. It was already noon, there were many fewer people on the street, and the sun was a bit hot.

"It's a bit hot. It's better not to go out in the summer. Stay at home to cool down." After walking a few steps, Pan An started to sweat.

"Give me the box and I'll carry it for you," Wu Zhaoniang said.

"Well, then you can carry it!" Pan An handed the heavy box to her.

"What's in here?" Wu Zhaoniang asked curiously.

"Rouge, gouache, and some jewelry."

"Oh, that must be very valuable. After all, it was given by Mr. Liu."

"Sure, the jewelry is all gold and silver, how can it not be valuable?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Zhaoniang's eyes widened. You must know that there was little gold and silver in ancient times, and the hand gesture craft was even more artificially carved, and the price was much more expensive than modern ones.

"It's strange, why would he give you such an expensive thing?"

"Let's build a good relationship!"

"Relationship? With us?" Wu Zhaoniang looked surprised.

Pan An knocked on her forehead and said, "Idiot, it's Zhaoyue, and Zhaoyue is the policeman. Such a big thing happened to the Liu family, so naturally they have to have a good relationship with the government!"

"Oh, so that's what happened, then I understand. But this matter with the Liu family was just an accident, there's no need to make any connections!"

"Accident!" Pan An chuckled, shook his head and said, "Some things are accidents, but they might not be. Some things are not accidents, but they might as well be."

"Master Liu is afraid that someone will use this as a topic to deal with the Liu family?" Wu Zhaoniang asked doubtfully.

"Well, it's not just that. There may be a lot more to it, but until the matter is found out, there is nothing to say. What we can do is to ask Zhaoyue not to interfere too much. After all, Mr. Liu has conveyed his good intentions to us. It’s better to have good relations than to make enemies.” Pan An warned.

"Well, I'll explain this to Zhaoyue when we get back."

After returning home, Wu Zhaoniang went to pack up the unfinished sesame cakes, while Pan An sat at the table in the house, opened the box and looked curiously at the jewelry and rouge gouache inside.

I have to say that the things Master Liu gave him are really good. This silver bracelet is worth dozens of taels of silver, and the gold jewelry is worth a hundred taels.

"If you pawn all these and exchange them for money, you can buy a big house on the street and truly achieve a well-off life." Pan An sighed while looking at the jewelry in his hand.

However, just as he was looking at these accessories seriously, someone quietly walked over behind him.
