V3.Chapter 43

In the eyes of the crowd full of curiosity and expectation, Cao Ya stretches out her plump and thin hands, and uncovers the oil paper clumsily, which are far more than those little girls of this age that Wei Changying has seen.

Because the crunchy oiled paper of a long time ago, along with her movements, has fallen into pieces on the valuable gold filigree brocade in mingpeitang.

But at the moment, no one has the intention to pay attention to this point, and they all keep their eyes on the fall of the last layer of oiled paper

"What is this?"

Seeing the things in the oil paper clearly, everyone in the hall was stunned!

"Hiss..." Wei Changying narrowed his eyes slightly, leaned back, looked at Mu Chunmian coldly, and said, "master mupu, together, your mother and daughter, are you here to amuse us?"

When she said that, she also glanced at Shen Lun coldly - Shen Lun was sweating like rain!

But even he was shocked to have nothing to say by the last thing revealed in the oiled paper. At the moment, although he was afraid of offending the young lady due to his poor work, he didn't know how to explain -

on the oiled paper, it was a rag.

It's not only rags, but also has been stained with blood, oil or other dirt for many days. Because it's too long to see the true color of the cloth, even after it's opened, it doesn't have any peculiar smell But anyway, it's a rag! And it's the kind that I'm afraid beggars are too lazy to pick up

It's not big. It's a little smaller than Cao Ya's palm. If it wasn't for Wei Changying and duanmuxinmiao, they would even have to let people come to see it!

Wei Changying was angry and asked coldly, "take a piece of rag and exchange it for three thousand liang of gold. It's not because Cao family castle has been doing business for a long time in private. Even Shen family dare to make a mistake?"

When she said this, there was silence in the hall, but after a rest, some people didn't understand it. Cao Ya opened her eyes and said with milk: "not only rags, but also needles!" As she said, she came up naturally and held up the oilpaper for Wei Changying to see.

Wei Changying frowns and looks down It took her a long time to see that there was indeed a fine needle on the dirty rag. Although the needle was sucking, it was quite long, and the color was dim, and she could not see what the material was Looking at Miao for a moment, duanmuxin said: "this is a needle for acupuncture Is it a bone needle? "

Next wood spring sleep respectfully way: "Duanmu miss good eyesight, this is bone needle really."

Duanmuxin Miao suddenly moved and said: "it seems to be made of ordinary animal bones. Its toughness and firmness are far less than the silver or gold needles used normally! Uncle in the end is uncle, can use such bone needle to give needle unexpectedly! "

After winning a meal, Wei finally reminded her, "is it a common bone needle? Is it worth three thousand liang of gold? "

The topic turns back to gold again - only listen to Mu Chunmian's long sleep: "don't be angry with young lady and Duanmu, and let the little lady explain the reason of these three thousand liang of gold: the humanity that left these things in those days, this rag, was his brother's death, he had no time to collect it, he could only cut off a skirt as a memorial. This bone needle, however, is not his, but his elder sister, in order to cure his nephew, specially asked for it These things may be worthless for others, but for Ji Shenyi or miss Duanmu, there are not many golden decisions - because all the people who die in Xiliang are buried together with the exiles who have died violently for many years, and there are no separate tombstones. It's impossible to find it back after so many years! "

Duanmuxinmiao suddenly changed color and said: "relics?! The remains of my master's family? "

Mu Chunmian nodded: "not bad! Although we can't find the bones, we can build a tomb with these things, right? "

"How many of these do you have?" Duanmuxinmiao's subconscious question.

Mu Chunmian didn't answer, but Wei Changying, who looked on coldly, suddenly asked, "as you said, Ji Gu has really passed away? Ten years ago, you didn't deceive me, Shen Shi, to inquire about people? "

"As Madame Shao said All the old people in the castle said so, and the people in your family have confirmed it personally. "

"So why didn't you talk about these relics a decade ago?" Wei Changying asked with a sneer!

Being reminded by her, duanmuxinmiao also woke up and clapped his hands and said: "good! Since it's a relic left by my martial uncle and other relatives of my master Why didn't you mention it? "

Mu Chunmian smiled bitterly and said: "three thousand liang of gold, even the little lady and miss Duanmu think that there are many people of this status, let alone I and other rural Untouchables? At that time, it was the last stronghold leader. It was just a joke. Naturally, I didn't dare to follow the premise of Shen's family. "

"Why do you dare to mention it now?" Wei Changying squints and asks her, glancing at the things in the oiled paper and the oiled paper. Just a few steps closer, she can better look at Cao ya, who has coral beads on her temples. She says faintly, "and you bring the only flesh and blood! Are you not afraid that such absurd demands will provoke us, and are not good for both your mother and your daughter? "

After hearing this, Mu Chunmian smiled cunningly and raised his head slightly: "one is the lack of all things in the castle now, so he needs this gold very much; two is it Although the little lady is ignorant, she also heard from some relatives of the castle who came to Xiliang for medical treatment some days ago. Little doctor It's Miss Duanmu. These days, she would not hesitate to give me a thousand dollars to diagnose and treat the poor people. The little woman thought that Miss Duanmu, with such a kind heart, must also be a pure filial piety! It's natural not to not buy it! ""You have the guts." Wei Chang Ying Xiang said, "I'm not afraid of such a lion's big mouth, which makes our hearts unhappy?"

"Three thousand liang of gold is not a small sum for the young lady and miss Duanmu. It's just that the two dignitaries are smart and careful people who are not willing to waste it in vain. " Mu Chunmian said with a smile, "in fact, as two dignitaries, how could such a sum of money really be put in the eye?"

Wei Changying glanced at her and turned to duanmuxinmiao. "Sister?"

“…… Give her three thousand liang of gold! " Duanmuxinmiao hesitated for a while, and then resolutely said, "please take the third sister-in-law for me first! I will return it after I return to Beijing... "

"I'm not sure if I can return it, but I'm not sure." "Sister Xinmiao, when you helped me and your third brother, we were not so polite to you," said Wei Changying

After the two made a concession, Wei Changying asked people to raise gold. At last, he asked Mu Chunmian, "come here, you two, mother and daughter. It's not convenient to take the three thousand Liang gold back, is it? Do you need me to send you one? "

When Mu Chunmian heard that she could really get 3000 liang of gold, she had some accidents, but her city was not shallow, and her eyes moved for a while and then returned to peace. Now it's a great surprise to hear from Wei Changying that they let their mother and daughter go like this. After thinking about it, he said: "thank you very much, little lady. Only the little lady wanted the gold, which was originally used to buy things for the castle The little woman will go there first, but she will not take all the gold back to Cao family castle. "

She pondered and said tentatively, "the little woman thought that there would not be much gold to bring back. Outside, there are also some children from the castle. I don't think it's necessary to work for the subordinates of the young lady. "

Wei Changying didn't insist either, saying, "in that case, I'll send you to the door later."

…… When the mother and daughter are really gone, duanmuxinmiao frowns and asks Wei Changying, "sister in law?" She doesn't want to let go of the wood and spring sleep just like this - although several relics are of great significance to Ji Qubing, Ji Qubing has heard about the death of those people for a long time. Ji Gu's life and death are her most concern.

But just now when she wanted to continue to ask, Wei Changying secretly stepped on her foot and motioned her not to speak. Now Mu Chunmian's mother and daughter are gone. Duanmu Xinmiao naturally needs to know.

"Don't worry, sister. I think there are eight or nine in that season!" Wei Changying took a sip of tea at leisure and said lightly.

Duanmuxinmiao guessed that there must be a reason why Wei Changying stepped on his feet and stopped himself from speaking. But I didn't expect that Wei Changying would give such an answer directly. After a while, he almost jumped up: "seriously?!"

"Ten is eight nine. 8、 Nine! " Wei Changying said with a smile, "I don't dare to fight for the ticket, but it may be huge!"

Duanmuxinmiao asked busily, "how do you know sister-in-law?"

"Don't you think that Mu Chunmian is too brave to ask us for three thousand liang of gold with a relic?" Wei Chang Ying sneered and said, "what's the reason for Cao family castle's lack of money now? What's the reason for knowing that you are the disciple of Ji Shenyi I'm sure she has a lot to do with Ji! Looking at us, even if we turn our faces, she will bring out Ji Gu, we will not really embarrass them! "

Duanmuxinmiao was surprised and said, "then why don't they say it directly? Are you afraid to say it directly, and I'm sorry to ask for those three thousand liang of gold? "

"I don't think so." Wei Changying reminded, "if they prove their relationship with Ji Gu, they ask you for three thousand liang of gold, will you give it or not?"

"If I have a good relationship with my uncle, I will help each other." Duanmuxinmiao said seriously, "my master is very concerned about this martial uncle! Now the master is still in Fengzhou and has no time to come over. I will take care of the people for him naturally! "

Wei Changying said: "the problem is that I believe in your idea, but Ji Gu may not believe it!"

Duanmuxinmiao was stunned. Wei Changying said: "you think my grandmother entrusted Shen's family to go to Cao's castle to find him more than ten years ago. Can't we not say that it's because of Ji Shenyi that our Wei family is trying to get rid of Ji Gu's guilt? It's just that the place of caojiapu is extremely wonderful. It's easy to defend and hard to attack, but when it comes to the news, it's tightly blocked, isn't it? At that time, 10% of Ji Gu suspected that the Shen family was nonsense. Most of them were ordered by Princess Deng to kill them all! So we need a wise doctor to use caojiapu to persuade Hebao to help him forge the corpse and tomb! "

She sighed. "Ten years ago, he didn't believe that the Shen family was looking for him. He must have been very cautious and careful to stay in seclusion so that no one could find his identity! In this case, he won't hear too much, will he? Therefore, I found that someone inquired about him. Even if this person is the only disciple of Ji Shenyi, Ji Gu may not believe it After all, the aristocratic families intermarry with each other. Who is the world's most famous family? Who can't get close to their relatives when they turn three or four corners? Ji Gu used to be the son of the court judge of Tai hospital. I'm sure he knows that there are many in laws of our gentry. He may not be satisfied with you! "

Duanmuxinmiao understood a little: "sister-in-law's meaning, these three thousand Liang gold, is to see my sincerity?""That's right." Wei Changying said faintly, "I think that Mu Chunmian must have been told by Ji Gu before she came. After she asked for three thousand liang of gold, all our reactions must have been speculated by Ji Gu. Otherwise, how can a rural woman have a city or a Cao family castle without paying taxes? How many families can she save in decades? If she had not had a complete plan and trained for a long time, how could she have done it? "

She looked at duanmuxinmiao and said, "when she had bought enough of these three thousand Liang gold and returned to caojiapu, she found that we were really willing to spend three thousand Liang gold to buy some ragged relics. I think that Ji Gu can believe that you really mean nothing to him - he thinks that he should not be worth three thousand liang of gold in the eyes of Princess Deng. This price is not the price of relics, but the price he gives his life! "

And he thought, "Cao family castle Cao ya, Mu Chunmian left the boy in the castle outside, but brought a little girl in. I don't think it's no reason. Does it really have something to do with Ji Gu, the little girl named Cao ya? Eh, it's time to leave Shen Lun to ask, is this Cao Ya the daughter of Mu Chunmian
