Sister-in-law Liu was embarrassed to say it, covered her mouth, smiled and waved her hands repeatedly.
"Nothing, nothing. Okay, Ningning, I'll go back with my things. Thank you."
Seeing her running fast, the little guy turned to look at Grandma Qin and Chen Ye.
"Grandma, Brother Chen, do you also know what she said?"
Chen Ye answered honestly: "I haven't heard that the old village chief bought a woman back."
"And the old village chief has a good character and will not do that kind of violation ." It's a matter of law."
Grandma Qin also nodded: "I'm afraid that the daughter-in-law of the Liu family is complaining about seeing a woman at the village chief's house."
"If this kind of thing is misunderstood, it will harm me if it spreads. The Deng family, so Ning Ning, let's just leave it alone."
Shen Ning Ning said obediently.
When preparing to leave Xiangyun Village and send Aunt Yun and Uncle Zhong back to the shop.
The little guy passed by the old village chief's house.
But I saw that they had closed the door tightly.
Looking into the yard, there was a heavy felt curtain hanging behind the window, and nothing could be seen.
Shen Ningning scratched her face in confusion.
...
On this day, Xie Mingan and his subordinates finished processing the files and rushed back to the capital from Gyeonggi.
When passing a jewelry store, the subordinate suddenly said apologetically: "Master Shaoqing, can you please go back to Dali Temple first?"
"I want to buy something to give to my sister."
Xie Mingan held the reins, his face was stern, a little Inhumane meaning.
Before he could speak, a colleague beside him began to tease this subordinate.
"I have long heard that Mr. Lu loves his sister, and today I saw that it is true." "It's just that we can do this shopping after we leave office, why do we have to rush now? We still have to follow Mr.
Shaoqing back to Dali Temple to discuss matters."
Lu's subordinate looked embarrassed and hesitant.
He repeatedly handed over his hand and apologized to Xie Ming'an.
"Because I annoyed my sister last time, she ignored her for several days."
"It is said that an angry woman must buy some good things to comfort her, but every time she is dismissed from Dali Temple, she has been After Xu, all these shops were closed. "
That's why...he came up with this unkind request."
Xie Ming'an was strict with himself and even more strict with his subordinates.
Since he came to Dali Temple to take office, he has put business matters first.
He often stayed away from home all day long, working on files and interrogating criminals without sleep or food.
What a pain for these subordinates.
Xie Mingan's cold eyes were indifferent, and after a moment, he said: "You brother and sister have a good relationship. Okay, let's go and have a look together."
He got off his horse and walked into the jewelry store under the secretly surprised eyes of the other officials.
How could the inhumane Mr. Xie Shaoqing still have such a reasonable side?
Those officials thought that Mr. Lu would definitely be scolded.
Xie Mingan has never been to a store specializing in women's jewelry since he was a child.
In his impression, when he was young, he personally cut a wooden hairpin for his mother Shen Siyi.
Later, the wooden hairpin accompanied my mother and was buried in the coffin.
Xie Mingan walked to Master Lu.
I saw him picking up a bunch of colorful hairpins inlaid with various kinds of precious stones.
Xie Mingan frowned: "The colors are so tacky, why not choose a hosta?"
He pointed to the table on the other side.
On it are placed pure and elegant hostas of various colors without any unnecessary decoration.
Mr. Lu smiled implicitly: "Sir, you handle cases like a god."
"But when it comes to buying hairpins, why don't you go down to the official position? Your sister is the eleven or twelve-year-old Shao Ai."
"She likes this best. I like the shiny multi-colored hairpin jewelry, not only this one, but also gemstones, pearls and jade."
As he spoke, Mr. Lu handed the selected hairpin to the shop assistant.
"I want this. Please help me get a brocade box to put it in."
Xie Ming'an sighed and reached out, picking up a bunch of colorful butterfly hairpins.
The delicate butterfly is outlined with silver wire, and the dazzling lights on the butterfly wings are actually made up of countless tiny rubies stacked on top of each other.
This requires excellent craftsmanship.
Under the butterfly, there is a tassel-like brilliant orb.
When you turn it gently, you can hear a crisp sound.
In such a gloomy snowy day, it must be very eye-catching to have such a unique hairpin.
Master Lu saw Xie Mingan looking at the butterfly hairpin in trance.
He understood and said to the waiter: "This hairpin is also wrapped for me, and we will pay the bill together."
Xie Ming'an came back to his senses.
"No need."
"Master Shaoqing, please don't be polite to me. Thank you for your advice when you return to Beijing this time."
Master Lu cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Besides, I heard that you are the princess of Funing now.
"I had to be reminded by the princess before to prepare the cold protection equipment, so that the family would not suffer from the cold."
"So, this hairpin is a tribute from the official to the princess,"
Xie Ming'an looked cold . The earth strongly refused.
He said: "Shen Ningning is still young, you don't have to do anything to please her, so as not to spoil the child."
Mr. Lu's expression stiffened, and he nodded awkwardly.
"That's what you said."
Xie Mingan handed the hairpin to the clerk in the store.
"How much money is this? Wrap it up in a brocade box for me."
Mr. Lu looked at him in surprise.
I thought Xie Mingan was not going to buy it.
For several days.
Xie Mingan didn't even wait for Shen Ningning.
Finally, on the day Xie Suzhi returned from the palace, Shen Ningning also came to Xie's mansion to visit him.
The little guy was chatting happily with Xie Suzhi in the study. Just like a real father and daughter.
Xie Suzhi's fatigue from being busy with government affairs for the past few days was wiped away the moment he saw Shen Ningning.
Shen Ningning just came out of the study.
Then I met Xie Mingan walking towards me.
The little guy curled his lips silently, and she raised her little head, pretending not to see Xie Ming'an, and passed him by.
"Wait." Xie Mingan called to her.
Shen Ningning looked back, her big eyes looking suspiciously.
"What's the matter?"
Xie Mingan put his hands behind his hands, holding the brocade box tightly with his fingertips.
A fine strand of sweat formed on the slender palms.
For some reason, facing Shen Ningning, he suddenly felt embarrassed to take out his things.
"Um," Xie Mingan had nothing to say, "Is father in the study?"
Shen Ningning pouted: "Yes."
After that, she turned and left.
Xie Mingan opened her thin lips slightly, wanting to call her to stop, but Shen Ningning walked away quickly.
After a while, the little figure disappeared around the corner of the corridor.
Xie Suzhi opened the door at this time and asked with a majestic expression: "Ming'an, are you looking for me?"
Xie Ming'an glanced at him, a little irritated: "I don't want to look for you now."
With that, he strode away.
One of the people left behind, Xie Su, froze in place and frowned: "What's wrong with you again?"
At night, the family finished their meal.
Mrs. Xie Er excused herself from feeling uncomfortable and left early.
Second Master Xie sighed: "Recently, I wish Jiujiu has been writing every day, crying and complaining about the cold weather. She has been ill several times."
"Brother, I wish Jiujiu..." Second Master Xie seemed to want to plead, but in the end, he still said Shake his head and sigh.
"That's it, it's nothing."
Xie Suzhi calmly added some soup to Shen Ningning.
He said in a calm tone: "Second brother, I told you last time."
"Xuanjiu is at a critical time for her growth. If her character is bad, your doting will only harm her."
"Don't worry, The servants in Changzhou's hometown took good care of her. I never heard from the housekeeper that she was ill. I probably wanted to go back to Beijing, so I lied to you in the letter. "
Second Master Xie was taken aback and looked a little bit. angry.
"My wife must have taught her to be so deceitful, how can this be unreasonable!" He punched the table, very displeased.
Mr. Xie is upright himself, but he doesn't like that Mrs. Xie always teaches his children too much.
Shen Ningning picked up her chicken legs and put them into Mr. Xie's bowl.
"Second uncle, if you eat meat, don't be angry after eating it."
"The miracle doctor said that only if you feel better can you have a chance to get better."
"Don't be angry or not, eat meat." Little guy The voice is waxy and endearing.
Mr. Xie Erye and Xie Suzhi laughed at the same time.
The two looked at Shen Ningning with gentle eyes.
"Ning Ning is so good. My second uncle is not angry anymore. It would be great if I wish Jiujiu were half as obedient as you."
Xie Ming'an watched calmly from the side.
In his memory, since his mother passed away, his father was silent and his second uncle became manic at times due to illness.
But after Shen Ningning appeared, his father smiled more.
Even the second uncle rarely loses his temper.
Finished the meal.
Xie Suzhi called Mr. Xie to the study to discuss the war.
Late spring and late spring were supposed to take Shen Ningning back to the room.
However, Xie Mingan called the little guy from behind again.
Shen Ningning looked back: "What's the matter?"
Xie Ming'an finally took out the brocade box generously.
His face was expressionless, concealing the turmoil in his heart.
She said calmly: "This is for you."
Shen Ningning's big eyes gleamed.
She shook her head: "I don't want it. What if it's a bad thing and you want to harm me?"
There was a crack in Xie Ming'an's pretended calm expression.
"You think too much!" He opened the box and revealed the shining butterfly hairpin inside.
Shen Ningning's eyes lit up.
Wow! It's a little butterfly!
The little guy has known about beauty since he was sensible.
In the past, her family background was not good, and she was reluctant to wear new clothes.
Now that my life is better, I can't bear to spend so much money on those beautiful jewelry.
It's all Mo Lingwei's reward and what she uses.
Seeing such a beautiful butterfly hairpin, the little guy's heart moved.
Unexpectedly, Xie Mingan said immediately, "This is a meeting gift for you. Each of the sisters in the house will have one." "Take yours first. When Zhanjiu comes back, I will give her another one." Shen Ningning was about to
give her one.
The little hand that reached out to take it suddenly stopped.
The little guy's fair and tender face looked silently cold.
Even Wuchun frowned upon hearing this.
This second young master is really good at handling cases, but he really doesn't know how to deal with people.
Who are you trying to piss off by talking like this?
