Chapter 173 Le Zhengxiao's face is full of ridicule
But that is all a matter for the future. We have to build a new house first.
The yard at home is now completely uninhabitable.
While Qiao Xuan was working hard and making a lot of money, Xie Jingrong and Le Zhengxiao were also preparing to leave Heshan County.
Just as he was about to board the carriage, Master Lu came hurriedly.
The timing is very precise!
This was certainly not because Master Lu was a demigod who could predict the future, but rather, he had been hiding quietly on the side and waiting for a while, and then appeared at the right time.
"Mr. Xie, please stay!"
Xie Jingrong stopped and stood beside the carriage, then turned around and said in surprise: "Master Lu is really too polite."
Master Lu smiled, respectful and friendly: "You are a distinguished guest, it's my duty, it's my duty, haha!"
Master Lu did not dare to say much, and presented a fine brocade box that was more than a foot long with both hands: "Master Xie, this is the Polygonum multiflorum that our master found. It has been identified as being more than 200 years old. This is rare! Our master said that it would be a waste if he kept such a treasure. Why not ask Master Xie to take it? Maybe it can be of some use, and it can be regarded as not burying a good thing."
"This is a small gift from you, Master Xie. Please accept it! I dare not delay Master Xie's journey any longer, so I will take my leave now. I wish you a safe journey!"
Master Lu said with a smile, and when he finished speaking, he handed the brocade box to the arms of Xie Jingrong's follower without any explanation, took two steps back, bowed, and turned to leave.
Incredibly clean and neat.
It's hard for him to walk so fast.
Xie Jingrong: “.”
Everyone: “.”
The most pitiful one was the attendant holding the brocade box, looking at Xie Jingrong helplessly: "Master, this..."
Le Zhengxiao was delighted and said to Xie Jingrong with a smile: "This Lord Qiao is quite interesting! Brother Xie owes him a big favor!"
After all, to be honest, a 200-year-old Polygonum multiflorum is really rare. Xie Jingrong took the Polygonum multiflorum to make medicine for his grandmother. County Magistrate Qiao was so thoughtful, and accepting it regardless of whether it could be used or not was equivalent to owing a favor.
Le Zhengxiao's eyes were full of mockery, thinking that it was really a case of good things coming out of bad things. Lord Qiao was shameless and snobbish, yet he raised a daughter like Mrs. Shao.
And is he blind? He treats the stupid Miss Qiao as his baby and ignores Mrs. Shao.
No wonder Mrs. Shao specifically requested that her affairs not be told to anyone. This really cannot be said.
If Lord Qiao knew that Mrs. Shao had found 500-year-old Polygonum multiflorum for the Xie family, he would definitely force her to give it to him. This favor would of course be counted as his.
If he knew about the lipstick business, he would never let Mrs. Shao go.
Thinking about it this way, Mrs. Shao is really so pitiful and has such a hard life!
Xie Jingrong frowned, pondered for a moment, and then said to the attendant: "Send this brocade box back as it is and give it to Lord Qiao in person. Tell him that I have found the right Polygonum multiflorum. It would be bad to take advantage of Lord Qiao. Please keep this good thing for yourself!"
After giving the order, Xie Jingrong turned around, got on the carriage, and ordered to set off.
Le Zhengxiao was not at all surprised by Xie Jingrong's behavior.
Don't be fooled by this guy's elegant, gentle, and refined appearance. How could the eldest grandson of the Xie family be a simple and weak person?
Is it so easy to take advantage of the Xie family's favor?
Can you get it just by being thick-skinned? It's so beautiful!
Le Zhengxiao joked, "Two hundred years is a lot of years. I think Master Qiao is very thoughtful. Why doesn't he keep it?"
