"Madame, I have already prepared what you want." The old woman took out a bottle of wine from her bosom. This was a highly concentrated wine that she had specially arranged for him. This type of wine was not for drinking; it was usually used for lighting firewood. The old woman was very thoughtful. She knew that if she were to prepare this, it would definitely be of no use. She was worried that she might be able to get the silver taels.
Xi Jiu Er removed the bracelet from her hand and handed it over to the old granny: "This is equivalent to thanking you." The old lady saw that the bracelet was extremely valuable and snatched it from Xi Jiu Er's hands. She rubbed it back and forth and asked greedily, "Are there any other good things?"
"You've done everything I asked of you, and the benefits are not only that." Xi Jiu Er looked at the bracelet with disdain: "I have a lot of these things, but I will just give you a dozen or so more when the time comes."
The old granny knew that the of the rich people had a dozen or so bracelets, and that her own daughter was wearing inferior items that she had bought from a stall, which was even worse than those servants of the rich people's residences. She was such a daughter. Her life wasn't as important as her daughter's future prospects. She had suffered for her entire life, so she couldn't let her daughter suffer with her for the rest of her life.
"Miss, if you have any orders, just say them. Even if I have to risk my life, I will still help you." The old granny swept her gaze greedily, then patted her chest and promised Xi Jiu Er. In any case, this woman wouldn't be able to run away, and there were many people watching her from the outside. It would be better to take advantage of her death to squeeze a little bit.
Xi Jiu Er knew that she was doing it all for him, so she whispered a few sentences into her ears. When the old woman heard it, she became troubled.
"You just need to take care of it. It's definitely time that you reap the benefits. Remember, if you want to obtain those things, you have to be careful." Xi Jiu Er whispered: "This is the last thing I want you to do, in the future, go and live a good life with your family while you travel to a remote place."
Xi Wan Feng gazed down at the man who was slowly walking towards him. Although he was an expensive doctor, he was still a peerless person. He could not help but think that Xi Jiu Er was truly lucky to be able to find a random man to marry.
"He's just a doctor, how could he be a threat to the young master?" Xi Wan Feng said with disdain in his eyes.
The man took a sip of tea leisurely, shot a glance at the short-sighted woman: "Do you know his true identity? "It's not that simple."
Oh? Could it be that he had some sort of background? Xi Wan Feng saw that the guy had an extraordinary air and thought that he was just an ordinary self-proclaimed high ranking doctor, but now, he could see that his every move did indeed carry a natural noble Qi, could it be some rich young master?
"All of you can leave now. I want to properly reminisce with my old friend …" The man's grin was full of meaning, and it sent chills down one's spine. It was as if a rich wolf had purposely erupted when it saw a piece of fat meat. Xi Wan Feng retreated, but just as she was about to eavesdrop on her wrist, someone caught hold of her. Yan Niang stared at her with his cold eyes: "Where are you going? Young Master told you to stay here, so you should stay here. "
"Sister Yan Niang, I am extremely curious about the identity of the doctor, please tell me." The itch in Xi Wan Feng's heart was extremely uncomfortable, and she begged for mercy, "Big Sister Yan Niang, just tell me …"
Yan Niang coldly swept her a glance, looked at everyone around him, and then muttered: "Wind Nation, Imperial Family!"
What? It's actually the Wind Nation Royal Family? Judging from his age, he should be a prince! Xi Jiu Er, why are you so lucky? Just picking up a random man would make her a prince. The heavens were not treating her well! Xi Jiu Er bit her lips and revealed a forced smile, "So that's how it is."
Dong dong dong — There was movement from the yamen visitor next door. He didn't know what she had said, so he could only hear a faint laughter coming from the man. Yan Niang took out her unfinished embroidered purse. Her embroidery skills were not anything special, but she liked embroidery. Xi Wan Feng had seen her ever since she first came to know that she would embroider lotus pouches whenever she had the time. One time, she inadvertently glanced at it and almost spit it out. Was it a child embroidering? What a terrible sight.
"Sister Yan Niang, I'm in a hurry, I need to go to the latrine." Xi Wan Feng acted as though she was on pins and needles, but had no choice but to remain calm, suddenly holding her lower abdomen as she bowed and said.
Yan Niang raised her head, as if telling her not to play any more tricks.
"Sister Yan Niang, just believe me when I say that the steamed bun I ate today was probably made of rotten meat. Xi Wan Feng ungracefully arched his butt, and his face flushed red.
Seeing that she believed in him eighty to ninety percent, Yan Niang said: "Go quickly, Young Noble still has to instruct us to do something later."
"Alright, I'll be right back." Xi Wan Feng slipped away like a wisp of smoke, her posture when leaving was extremely indecent! No one expected her to leave by the back door of the teahouse. After hurriedly finding a carriage, she lowered the curtain and urged, "Hurry, hurry."
"Alright." The carriage driver swung his whip and passed by the old woman's carriage. The old woman went to the back door of the Wei Guogong Palace according to Xi Jiu Er's instructions. She then handed it over to the guard with a hairpin: "The owner of this hairpin … "Hey, hey, what are you guys doing? Let me go, let me go."
The old woman was escorted by a guard to see Old Zhang. Old Zhang looked at the hairpin and shouted, "Quickly tell me, where is the princess?"
I was just following her instructions. She said that she wanted me to take this hairpin to the Wei Guogong Palace to look for Old Zhang, and that she would give me the silver that I had on me. And then I did. "
Old Zhang was speechless. How could this old woman believe him? In truth, the old granny did not believe him, but she had secretly went to the pawnshop to ask Xi Jiu Er about the bracelet. She knew that giving 500 taels of silver to the pawnshop was a sky-high price for the poor woman, so she knew that the price the pawnshop offered was not just that.
A human's heart is not worth swallowing an elephant, if the old granny wanted to get more, she would have to listen to Xi Jiu Er's words. The bracelet gave to her unblinkingly, and she believed that Xi Jiu Er asking her servant to give her the silver should be true. Why couldn't she just rely on herself to do things? Who would have thought that this seemingly shrewd old woman would be bought off simply by a bracelet?
Elder Zhang held the hairpin and said, "Tell me where the person is and I will give you a thousand silver taels right away."
The old granny brought Xi Jiu Er's hairpin over, just because she wanted to get some benefits from it, she couldn't just get rid of him with a thousand gold. She quickly thought about it. She had already determined Xi Jiu Er's identity, not only was she a princess, she was the only granddaughter of the Wei Guogong. Wasn't a thousand taels of silver a bit too petty?
"Five thousand liang, and I'll have to thank you afterwards." Who would have thought that the old granny would think that it was Xi Jiu Er who said that it was worth more than ten thousand taels of silver? Seeing that the old woman's eyebrows had not moved at all, she said anxiously, "Tell me the price, how much silver does it cost to tell me where the princess is?"
While they were bargaining, Xi Wan Feng's carriage had already stopped at an inn. After paying the money, they hurriedly entered the inn's backyard. The inn's backyard was already surrounded, and before Xi Wan Feng entered the room, he had already secretly taken out his hairpin and hid it in his sleeve.
