Chapter 215 Returning Home

It was a small wooden token with intricate patterns engraved on it, but no one present recognized the patterns.

Xiao Yongyan's face was solemn, "You go investigate."

Feng Miao took the order and left.

The several big men escorted by the Dugu family were injured to varying degrees. Lin Xi gave them some silver and left the carriage to them, asking them to go back and inform Dugu Xin.

As for Lin Xi, he naturally followed Xiao Yongyan back to Taoli Village.

After being away for more than half a month, Lin Xi couldn't help but miss his own home.

Taoli Village, Xiao family.

Wang Jing looked at the people in front of him and exclaimed, "Not bad, life is really getting better and better."

Aunt Fu stood at the front, leading a group of servants in the house, and they all said in unison, "Madam is back."

Lin Xi was startled by the scene and looked at Xiao Yongyan.

"I taught you a little." Xiao Yongyan said briefly.

Lin Xi thought that being a mistress was really easy. She didn't have to do anything. Xiao Yongyan took care of almost all the big and small matters at home.

"Ma'am, the food is ready." Aunt Fu said.

Wang Jing was the first to run in. Seeing the table full of delicious food, he exclaimed in exaggeration, "Xiao Yongyan, you really know how to enjoy yourself. You even found so many people to serve you. I thought you didn't have such a good life before."

Lin Xi was a little confused by this. What did it mean that there were no such good days?

"What do you mean?" Lin Xi pulled Wang Jing aside.

Wang Jing said proudly, "Didn't Xiao Yongyan tell you? When he was in the Xiao family, there was only one servant in the yard, and he had to do many things himself. It is said that this is the style of the regent. I don't know why it is like this."

Lin Xi was really surprised. Who could have thought that the son of the arrogant Regent would have such a past? It was really unimaginable.

"Don't listen to Wang Jing, it's all in the past." Xiao Yongyan walked between Wang Jing and Lin Xi.

Wang Jing complained in his heart in annoyance, "What a stingy guy! He just said a few words to your wife and you see him in such a hurry to chase me away."

After Lin Xi returned to Taoli Village, many people came to greet him.

We haven't seen Lin Xi for a while, and although we don't say it, we are all a little worried.

Now that Lin Xi is back, I have to pay him a visit.

After visiting so many families, Lin Xi is most familiar with Aunt Wu.

This time Aunt Wu came with good news: Wu Erniu was getting married, and her husband was none other than the boy from the duck farming family.

Lin Xi was not surprised by this matter. She had felt that these two people had a chance from the beginning. After being together for such a long time, it was finally a couple, which was a good thing.

In order to choose a gift for Wu Erniu, Lin Xi took Konggu and Youlan to the county town.

The two were not unfamiliar with the county town, but this time they came here as normal people, which was really touching.

Lin Xi now has money in his hands, and he buys things without blinking an eye, as if what he is spending is just waste paper and not money at all.

She first bought several pieces of high-quality fabrics, and then took the two of them into a jewelry store.

The waiter was very familiar with Lin Xi, and knew at a glance that a big business had come, so he quickly greeted him, "Boss Lin, you are here, just tell me what you want to see, and I will get it for you."

After saying that, he guided Lin Xi to sit in the private room. Lin Xi only needed to move his lips and the servant would bring the things to him.

This is a treatment only available to big customers.

Konggu and Youlan had never seen such a scene before and were stunned.

"Let me see the hairpins you have. I want both gold and silver ones." Lin Xi said.

The guy immediately went to get something for Lin Xi.

Soon, a tray of exquisite hairpins were placed in front of Lin Xi.

The guy knew Lin Xi. He wouldn't even look at shoddy stuff. He would only take good stuff.

Lin Xi picked and chose from a plate of gold hairpins, and finally chose one that was made of solid material and had a gorgeous style.

"How much silver is this?" Lin Xi asked.

The clerk said, "Boss Lin has a good eye. This hairpin took our master a month to make. Since you are a regular customer, I will give you a fair price of twenty taels."

Konggu and Youlan gasped when they heard this. A hairpin cost twenty taels of silver!

It would take their family more than two years to save up this much money, but when Lin Xi heard the price, he didn't even blink, probably because he thought twenty taels was nothing.

"How are these sold?" Lin Xi asked, pointing to another plate of silver hairpins.

The clerk said, "These are made of silver, and the price is very cheap, two taels each."

Lin Xi thought the price was reasonable, and then he looked at Konggu and Youlan, who had no decorations on their heads, and said, "You can each pick one."

They were both stunned. Youlan was the first to react, with an incredible light in her eyes. "Madam, can we really choose one?"

Lin Xi smiled, "Of course you can. You are members of my Lin family now. When you go out, you represent the image of our Lin family. You can't be too plain."

A simple smile appeared on Youlan's face. She was so lucky to have met such a good master.

She stopped Konggu and said, "Which one do you like? You pick first."

Konggu looked at these hairpins and always felt that the gold ones on the sides were more dazzling, but Youlan kept urging her, so she just picked one at random.

Youlan was very excited. Faced with a pile of hairpins, she looked left and right, not knowing which one to choose.

Finally, Lin Xi couldn't bear it anymore and urged, "Youlan, if you don't choose well, I will deduct your monthly salary."

This girl has a simple personality, but I didn't expect she has serious choice-making problems.

Youlan curled her lips and had to speed up and chose a hairpin based on Konggu's suggestion.

Lin Xi then paid the bill and took the two of them home.

Along the way, Youlan kept looking at her hairpin. She had never worn a silver hairpin in her life.

When going to bed at night, Youlan was still excited.

Konggu couldn't bear to watch it any longer. "It's just a silver hairpin. Madam bought gold ones for outsiders."

Youlan didn't care, "But this is my first hairpin. I used to just find a branch to make it."

Her master is so nice.

Konggu turned over, ignored Youlan and went to sleep.

Wu Erniu's wedding.

Now that the Wu family is well off, their second daughter is getting married and has brought a lot of dowry.

Generally, when a family marries off their daughter, giving her a few quilts is considered a good thing.

But this time, Aunt Wu gave Erya two full boxes of things as a dowry, including daily necessities, fine fabrics, gold and silver jewelry, which made the villagers' eyes pop out.

When Lin Xi arrived, he heard people around him talking.

"The Dai family is so lucky to have married Wu Erniu. Look, which family in the village can give so many things to their daughter when she gets married?"

"Don't even mention marrying off your daughter. Wu Erniu herself is capable. She has opened a steamed bun shop in town. I heard that she makes quite a bit of money every day."
