Chapter 436: It’s over, why did you say that you are bald?
In the sleeping hall.
Jiang Ruo lay on the bed, gently stroking the little phoenix's head with a gentle look on her face.
The little phoenix's face changed from one of vigilance to one of enjoyment.
It thought happily: My sister is so gentle!
Jiang Ruo looked at the little phoenix who was indulging in the "land of tenderness" and curled up a wicked smile.
She coughed lightly and asked resentfully, "Xiao Feng, you are hiding something from your sister, right?"
Little Phoenix didn't even think about it and blurted out, "It's not a big deal. It's just that the old man in the Jiang Mansion died."
After saying this, the little phoenix suddenly became as quiet as a chicken.
It's over, why did you say that you are talking nonsense?
It blinked its eyes and quietly looked at Jiang Ruo's expression.
"Sister, sister, please don't..."
Jiang Ruo smiled slightly and continued to stroke the little phoenix's head.
"Xiaofeng, I'm fine."
"Sister, can you tell me a secret?"
Little Phoenix breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Jiang Ruo was not sad.
If the dog man knew that he had talked nonsense, he would pluck out all his hair.
In fact, Jiang Ruo didn't feel anything about Jiang Qinian's death.
She just didn't expect that Jiang Qinian would leave so soon...
Jiang Ruo sighed and lowered his voice to say to Little Phoenix, "In fact, the real Jiang Ruo was forced to death by Jiang Qinian."
"My sister is just a soul from another world."
When the little phoenix heard this, he blinked.
What does sister mean?
Is this what the storybooks call reincarnation?
Thinking of this, Little Phoenix promised with a serious face: "Sister, don't worry, I will keep this secret to myself."
"If I don't keep my mouth shut, you'll pluck out all my hair and eat my flesh."
Jiang Ruo couldn't help but laugh when he heard that.
"Haha, that's what you said."
She pinched Little Phoenix's neck and said in a joking tone: "If you dare to say anything nonsense, I will eat your flesh."
Little Phoenix nodded, "I won't tell you even if you kill me."
Thinking of Jiang Ruo's background, Little Phoenix rubbed her cheek and said with a worried look on her face: "Sister, will you still leave?"
Now that you're gone, where should I find you?
Jiang Ruo quickly assured, "Don't worry, sister won't leave."
"Okay, sister is tired, let's go to bed."
"Sister, you go to sleep first."
The little phoenix snuggled up to Jiang Ruo and spread its wings to protect her.
.......
After midnight, Xiao Chengjin tiptoed back to his bedroom.
When the little phoenix heard the noise, he quickly lay down and pretended to sleep.
The candlelight flickered, and Xiao Chengjin looked at the little phoenix who was trembling with guilt, and curled the corners of his lips.
Tsk tsk, he must have been tricked by Ruo Ruo.
Xiao Chengjin took off his dragon robe and lay on the bed.
He just stared at the little phoenix.
After pretending to sleep for a while, Xiao Fenghuang thought Xiao Chengjin was asleep.
It quietly raised its head and looked towards Xiao Chengjin...
Now, he was looking directly into Xiao Chengjin's smiling eyes.
"Xiao Feng, why are you still awake so late at night and sneaking around like that?"
The little phoenix's eyes were wandering and he felt guilty.
"I, I was afraid that my sister would kick off the quilt, so I got up and covered her with it." Little Phoenix said, tilting his head to check.
Xiao Chengjin chuckled a few times, "Did you say you were talking nonsense?"
The little phoenix snorted proudly, "Yes, so what?"
"My sister said she didn't take it to heart at all."
Xiao Chengjin leaned over and kissed Jiang Ruo's forehead a few times, rubbing the little phoenix by the way, "Go to sleep, don't wake Ruo Ruo up."
The little phoenix knew when to stop and lay down obediently beside Jiang Ruo.
Xiao Chengjin smiled slightly and lay beside Jiang Ruo.
Ruoruo did everything she could.
Except for hiding the fact that the original owner of the Nangong family had already passed away.
I have no regrets.
........
A Ping did not make public the fact that Jiang Qinian died of illness.
Sad as he was, he quietly handled Jiang Qinian's funeral.
What Aping didn't expect was that when he arrived at the cemetery in the suburbs, he found that Nangong Li's grave had been moved.
Of course, this was done by Jiang Ruo.
After Jiang Ruo returned to Beijing, she asked someone to find a new piece of Feng Shui treasure land, moved Nangong Li's grave there, and erected a tombstone for the original owner.
Ah Ping knelt before Jiang Qinian's grave and murmured softly, "Master, I'm sorry. Ah Ping didn't fulfill your last wish."
"Please forgive Ah Ping!"
"Master, Aping has decided to leave the capital."
"A Ping will come to the capital if he has the chance to come and see you again."
......
Time flies, and the first month of the year is over in a blink of an eye.
Early in the morning, A Ping, who had gotten up early, took a walk around the Jiang Mansion.
He walked and talked to himself.
"Master, A Ping is leaving the capital."
"I hope everything is okay with you over there."
"You won't blame Ah Ping for selling the Jiang Mansion, right?"
Having said that, A Ping paused for a moment...
He sighed and said with mixed feelings: "A Ping has been in the Jiang Mansion for eight years. He has witnessed the prosperity of the Jiang Mansion with his own eyes, and also witnessed the complete decline of the Jiang Mansion with his own eyes..."
After calming down, A Ping took the house deed and left the Jiang Mansion.
He went to the pawnshop, took out the title deed of the Jiang Mansion, and said that he wanted to sell the Jiang Mansion.
After seeing it, the dentist understood it instantly.
He asked with a gossipy look on his face, "What is your house deed...?"
"My master died of illness years ago and left this to me before he died." Aping told the truth.
Upon hearing this, the broker comforted him, "Please accept my condolences."
"How much silver do you plan to sell it for?"
Ah Ping said calmly, "Just pay me the market price!"
If you ask for too much, you will definitely say it is a "haunted house".
It is said that the lady spent 12,000 taels of silver to buy this mansion.
A Ping thought about selling the mansion, keeping some money for himself, and then returning the money to the Nangong family.
The brothel owner sighed and said, "You've found the right person."
"In the beginning, this Jiang Mansion was sold to Madam Jiang by my master."
"It seems to be 10,000 taels of silver..."
"How about this, you go back and wait for news. I'll let you know when there's a buyer."
A Ping nodded and took the house deed to the real estate agency.
Hope it can be sold out soon!
Not long after A Ping returned to the Jiang Mansion, news of Jiang Qinian's death from illness spread.
After Sheng Yunshao found out, he hurried out of the princess's mansion.
He looked at the closed door of the Jiang Mansion and shook his head.
Afterwards, he came to the Imperial Merchants' Mansion.
"Old man, something big has happened."
Old Master Nangong was teasing his little grandson, and when he saw Sheng Yunshao, he hurried out to greet him.
"What happened?"
Sheng Yunshao pointed at the Jiang Mansion and said mysteriously, "The old man next door died of illness a few years ago..."
Upon hearing this, Old Man Nangong was stunned for a moment.
After he came to his senses, he snorted coldly and cursed: "You deserve to die, it's retribution."
In fact, Mr. Nangong still felt a little uncomfortable.
Forget it, the person is already dead, there is no need to make myself upset anymore.
Under the order of Mr. Nangong, the family did not mention the matter again.
Two days later.
The broker brought the buyer to Jiang's house.
The buyer was a businessman. When he heard that the mansion opposite the Imperial Merchants Mansion was for sale, he bought it without caring whether it was the Jiang Mansion or not.
Become a neighbor of the Imperial Merchants Mansion and slowly build a good relationship. Maybe we can cooperate in the future.
After some negotiation, the buyer spent nine thousand taels of silver to purchase the Jiang Mansion.
After signing the contract, the broker happily took the buyer and seller to the government office to handle the formalities.
After finishing everything, A Ping left a silver note for one hundred taels, and put the silver note from selling the house and the warm jade pendant in a wooden box and locked it.
Near noon, he left the Jiang Mansion carrying a bundle and a wooden box.
Ah Ping stood at the gate of the Imperial Merchants Mansion and said to the doorman, "Could you please inform Mr. Nangong that I have something to talk to him about?"
The concierge looked at A Ping and was silent for a moment. "Please wait a moment."
"Thank you, brother." Aping thanked him quickly.
The doorman came to the front hall and said with a stiff upper lip, "Old man, Ah Ping from the Jiang residence wants to see you."
Old Master Nangong naturally knew that the Jiang Mansion had been sold.
He pondered for a moment and said in a cold voice: "Let him in!"
"As you wish." The doorman turned around and left quickly.
Aping was very happy when he learned that Mr. Nangong was willing to see him.
He followed the doorman carefully to the front hall.
"A Ping has met the old man."
Old Master Nangong sat on the chair and said in a cold voice: "Tell me, why did you come to see me?"
Ah Ping pursed his lips and said, "Master, I found a relic of your wife in your study a few days ago."
"I'm leaving the capital today, so I brought it to you." Aping said, taking a few steps forward and placing the wooden box on the table.
Old Man Nangong looked at the wooden box on the table without thinking much about it.
He thought that since Aping would return his daughter's belongings before leaving, he should prepare some money for Aping's journey!
"Please wait a moment."
Aping didn't know what Mr. Nangong was going to do, so he had to nod and agree.
Old Master Nangong stood up and left the front hall, then returned with a purse.
He said with a cold face: "You came to deliver my daughter's relics, so I won't let you come in vain."
"This is your errand fee."
Aping looked at the fierce old man Nangong and quickly took the purse.
He took the heavy purse and thanked him quickly: "Thank you, old man."
"Old man, take care of yourself."
"Okay, let's go!" Old Man Nangong looked at the wooden box and wiped his eyes.
After taking his leave, Aping quickly left the Imperial Merchants Mansion.
After he left the Imperial Merchants Mansion, he stood in front of the Jiang Mansion with red eyes and looked for a while before leaving reluctantly.
From now on, there will no longer be a Jiang Mansion in the capital...
