Chapter 148 Bah, this is not Chen Xixiang!
The whole Weicheng was talking about what happened on the day of the funeral of the eldest daughter of the Lu family.
The stepmother of the Lu family is so cruel. Not only does she ruin other people's marriage, she even poisons them. She is truly a vicious person.
Mrs. Lu has had a really hard time recently.
He didn't dare to open his eyes. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Lu Mei with disheveled hair and a pale face coming to him to claim his life.
He locked himself in his bedroom all day, yelling something like a madman.
The maids and servants listened with great interest.
Mr. Lu is a selfish person who cares a lot about his reputation.
Seeing Mrs. Lu like this, he immediately had her sent to the most remote courtyard of the Lu Mansion so that he could out of sight and out of mind.
"Hehehe, you deserve it!" A certain little grass was very happy when hearing what happened to Mrs. Lu.
Gu Yi and Master Nian Ci looked at the very happy little fairy grass and smiled at each other.
"This time, it's really all thanks to An An!" Gu Yi smiled and rubbed his daughter's little leaves.
I had originally planned to take Chen Xixiang and leave the Lu Mansion with Miss Lu, but An An's actions actually resulted in Mrs. Lu being punished, which really made everyone happy!
"Mother, mother, Chen Xi Xiang!" a certain fairy grass reminded anxiously.
Mother, don’t forget the family heirloom that the Lu family promised you!
Gu Yi pursed a handful of grass leaves and smoothed the fur of a small fairy grass that was about to burst: "Mother didn't forget, I'll take our An An to get the Chen Xi incense now!"
Gu Yi and Master Nianci packed up a bit and prepared to ask Master Lu for the incense, but before they could leave, they heard the maid outside the door say, "My benefactors, the master specially asked me to come and give you a thank you gift."
Gu Yi and Master Nian Ci looked at each other: Could it be that Mr. Lu has changed his nature? He actually took the initiative to send up the Chenxixiang?
As a result, the little maid was holding a box in her arms. Several people closed the door and opened the box.
There was an ordinary piece of wood in the box. Gu Yi leaned in and smelled it, and could smell a pleasant fragrance.
This, this is the astringent incense?
Gu Yi didn't know anything about medicinal herbs, so he had to look at Master Nianci beside him and ask.
Master Nianci looked serious as he took out the things in the box and was about to study them carefully.
After all, this Chenxixiang only exists in ancient books, and he has never seen it with his own eyes.
However, it is indeed recorded in ancient books that this agarwood looks like wood and has a woody fragrance.
This thing in front of me is all right, but...
"Wow! The bad guy is lying! This is not Chen Xi Xiang!" A small fairy grass stretched out its leaves, looked at this "Chen Xi Xiang", and cried out at that time.
"Bah! The bad guy is a liar and doesn't keep his word!" Xiao An An was filled with anger and swung the blade so hard that sparks were almost coming out.
Master Nian Ci, who was looking at the "Chenxi Incense", also put the thing back into the box, confirming An An's words.
"An An is right, this is not the agarwood." Master Nian Ci said, "At first glance, this piece does look like the agarwood recorded in ancient books, and the appearance is very similar, but..."
As Master Nian Ci spoke, he gently took a small amount of the "Chenxi Incense" from the box and put it into the water. The "Chenxi Incense" spread in the water, turned into powder, and sank to the bottom of the bowl.
Master Nianci went on to say: "The uniqueness of this astringent incense is that, although it looks like wood, it is soluble in water."
People who have lost their memory can restore their memory by drinking water containing the fragrance of agarwood.
It was because the records in ancient books were too mysterious, and basically no one had ever seen this Chenxi incense, so Master Nianci could not be sure at first.
But after hearing what An An said, I'm afraid that this Chen Xi Xiang is probably fake.
"No, no, that's what Master said!" Little An An nodded his little leaf up and down, confirming what Master Nian Ci said.
This ugly thing is so gray, how can it be a panacea?
Humph, if I eat it, who will cure me?
Even though I'm a magic herb, it would be weird if I ate herbs, but you can't fool this magic herb with a weird thing!
A certain fairy grass was very angry.
"Oh, this Mr. Lu is really not a good guy!" Gu Yi said angrily.
Instead of giving them the real agarwood, they used fake ones to fool them.
"I'll go find him right now!" Gu Yi was furious. She had finally gotten some hope, but she didn't expect that the master of the Lu family would actually fool them with fake things!
Fortunately, An An and Master Nian Ci discovered it. Otherwise, if they felt that the Chen Xi Xiang had no effect after taking it, wouldn’t they have just given up on looking for the real Chen Xi Xiang?
It's really abominable!
"Don't worry, Madam Gu, I have a good idea." Nianci stopped Gu Yi who was about to go to Mr. Lu to settle the score.
"Master, do you have any good ideas?" A certain fairy grass "had its eyes shining" and looked at its master expectantly.
Is there anything I can do to help?
The little fairy grass rubbed its leaves, eager to try.
Master Nian Ci was at a loss whether to laugh or cry at the fact that his disciple still loved to join in the fun.
"The Lu family master is a good man. We found his daughter, and he took out a family heirloom as a thank you gift." Master Nianci said calmly, "But the family heirloom was probably stolen and replaced by criminals."
"We have to help Mr. Lu find the real heirloom."
As soon as Nian Ci finished speaking, Gu Yi understood what Master Nian Ci meant almost instantly and smiled secretly: "That's right."
Jin Li also understood and smiled without saying anything.
As for the little fairy grass, it looked left and right at this and that.
Hey, why don't you say anything? I'm so anxious!
"Mommy, mommy, please tell An An~" Xiao Xiancao said coquettishly in a skillful manner.
"An An will know when the time comes!" Gu Yi said as he touched the small leaf with a smile.
On the other side, Master Lu called over the maid who was delivering the "Chen Xi Xiang" to several people and asked in a cold voice, "Have you delivered the box to them?"
The little maid nodded: "Master, I have sent it."
"How did they react?"
"She was so happy that she said she wanted to go to the street to buy some things for the master as a return gift! She went out in a hurry immediately." The little maid said with a smile.
Mr. Lu still didn't believe it: "Really?"
"I saw that the benefactors looked very happy, saying that they finally found the Chen Xi Xiang!"
Mr. Lu felt a little more at ease.
It seems that these people were also deceived.
What was given to them was naturally not the real agarwood. How could such a precious thing as agarwood be given to outsiders so easily?
"Okay, you can leave now." Master Lu remained calm and waved his hand to let the maid go.
Fortunately, I was smart and spent a lot of money to have someone make an identical one. Anyway, few people have seen this Chenxixiang, so isn't it up to me to decide whether it is real or fake?
Mr. Lu is very proud of his "cleverness and talent".
