It seemed like she had to visit the old residence again in the future.
With that thought in mind, she stretched and went home.
On the way, she met her eldest brother and second brother. When she saw the two of them, she hurriedly ran over. “Why were you gone for so long? Did you find it?”
Their sister said that she had accidentally lost the pouch containing the Thirteen Spices formula in the afternoon, so they each chose a direction and went out to look for it. However, they still did not see their sister after the two of them returned, so they hurriedly came out to look for her.
Xiaoxiao told them the truth. “1 went to watch Second Aunt’s show just now. She was crying and making a fuss in the forest. She seemed to have been possessed and insisted that she had seen a ghost. Don’t you think it’s funny?” The truth of the original host’s death could not be told for the time being. Otherwise, her family would definitely go to their door to demand an explanation. However, the people in the old residence were cunning. They would definitely not admit it without evidence. Instead, they would alert the enemy. Hence, she only buried a seed first and would settle the score in the future.
Ning Erlang snorted. “If she has never done anything wrong in her life, she will not be afraid of ghosts knocking on her door at night. She must have something on her mind.”
Ning Dalang pulled his sister over and patted the dust off her dress. “Did you fall?”
Xiaoxiao shook her head. “I might have rubbed it when I was squatting on the ground looking for something.” Then, she waved her purse at them. “I found it. It really fell into the grass.”
Ning Dalang knocked her forehead lightly. “No matter how important it is next time, you can’t go out to look for it at night.”
Xiaoxiao stuck out her tongue and was very obedient. When she turned around, she saw another figure. “Little Big Brother Ah Yan? Why are you here too?” Ning Erlang said, “All Yan heard the commotion at our house and knew that you weren’t back yet, so he came out with us to look for you. His guards are also looking for you elsewhere.”
Xiaoxiao scratched her head in embarrassment. She recalled the scene when Rong Yan spoke up for her in the afternoon and her heart warmed. “Thank you.”
Rong Yan shook his head. After confirming that she was fine, he went home with them. Yun Yi, who was guarding at home, went out and quickly called the other guards back. They probably had a way to contact each other.
Xiaoxiao ran over and asked a few questions when Yun Yi passed by the door of the house before coming back. Of course, Yun Yi had to report this to his master.
“Miss Ning is asking about your birthday, Master.”
Rong Yan asked him, “Did you tell him?”
Yun Yi patted his chest confidently. “I only said the date, but 1 didn’t say the time. After all, the birth characters can only be given to the other party when you discuss marriage. How can I spout nonsense!”
Rong Yan smiled at him. “You make it sound like you know my birth characters.”
Yun Yi was a little unsure if he did the right thing or not. It shouldn’t be wrong… right?
Xiaoxiao was a little surprised when she asked about her Little Big Brother’s birthday. It was a little magical to raise such a cold young man on the romantic seventh day of July Q.
However, Little Big Brother also made people feel that he was not easy to get close to at first. After they became familiar with him, they would realize that he was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. He was a very cute little big brother.
She counted all the things between the two of them and prepared to prepare a birthday gift for her Little Big Brother.
The next day, almost the entire Fortune Village spread the news that Second Uncle Ning went to the Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant to offer the recipe but was poisoned instead—
“I heard that when Second Brother found out that the eldest branch was still doing business with the Fragrance Restaurant, he wanted to sell their secret recipe to the Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant. In the end, he went for wool and came home shorn. He got poisoned and suffered from vomiting and diarrhea.” “Why did 1 hear that the shopkeeper of the Heavenly Fragrance Restaurant didn’t have that intention at all? He recommended himself and took the initiative to exchange his brother’s recipe for silver?”
“What does the recipe of the eldest branch have to do with him? They’ve already split up. Why is he still thinking about his Big Brother’s things?” “What’s so strange about that? His wife even snatched the food his niece prepared for her parents. How shameless!”
“In the past, that old lady at the old residence always bragged that she was fair and had never let her stepson down. From the looks of it, she’s probably bluffing.”
