Chapter 299: We Can Be Acquainted

At this moment, Xingxing bought another bowl of the same kind. Wang Qianer thought about the loss of thirteen taels of silver. It would be strange if her face could be in good spirits!

She gritted her teeth and took the gold box, and for a moment she wanted to throw it to Xingxing on the ground.

But Li Lanzhu was very satisfied with this.

She said to Xing Xing, "Before, you and Yu Er worked together to piss me off, and I thought you were also cunning. Now it seems that you are quite polite."

Xing Xing wiped the sweat off her face and said, "It's not a matter of being impolite. The mistake was made by Si Ge'er. He is young, so I, who was taking care of him, also failed to do my job well... If you make a mistake, you should make amends."

Li Lanzhu admired Xingxing even more: "You are much better than the cunning one!"

Xing Xing frowned and said, "Sister Li, my second brother is a very good person. If you continue to say that about him, I will get angry."

Li Lanzhu was shocked by the delicate and pretty girl's serious expression when she said that she was going to quarrel with him.

The real thoughts secretly emerged in her heart.

Yu Er is different from the usual young masters, and his sister is so cute!

As soon as this thought passed through her mind, Li Lanzhu realized what she was thinking and her face turned red. In order to cover up her gaffe, she turned her head away.

Wang Qian'er was very happy.

She had seen Li Lanzhu and the little girl seemed to know each other before - her family needed help from the Li family, and she was trying to please Li Lanzhu, so how could she embarrass the little girl in front of Li Lanzhu!

At the moment, it seems that Li Lanzhu is not familiar with this little girl, so is she...

Before Wang Qian'er could do anything, she heard a surprised voice saying, "Huh? Miss Yu?"

It was Qin Shaomeng, the young master of the prefectural family, who had also come to listen to the opera. He was just coming out of the theater when he happened to see Xingxing standing there talking to someone.

Qin Shaomeng walked over quickly and found that he also knew Li Lanzhu, who was talking to Xingxing.

He didn't know Wang Qian'er, so Qin Shaomeng ignored her.

Tan Shaomeng smiled and greeted Li Lanzhu: "Sister Li is here too."

Li Lanzhu was not angry to begin with, and now she even forgot about her previous attempt to hide her anger. She looked at Qin Shaomeng with some curiosity, then at Xing Xing: "Do you know each other?"

Xing Xing nodded, then shook her head, choosing her words carefully: "Well... we can be considered acquaintances, right?"

"Is it?" Qin Shaomeng seemed to have been hit by something, and he uttered an "ah" and was speechless. After a long while, he smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Xing Xing's heart softened. After thinking for a moment, she carefully corrected her choice of words: "...then remove the word 'considered'?"

Tan Shaomeng: "...Thank you."

Wang Qianer's face turned a little pale at this moment.

This...what is the origin of this little girl?

Li Lanzhu knew her, and even the young master of the prefectural government treated her differently?

After Xingxing returned the bowl, there was nothing else to do. She said goodbye to them politely, "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." Then she left with her maid.

Qin Shaomeng had come here originally for Xingxing, but when he saw Xingxing leaving, he said hello to Li Lanzhu and left.

Wang Qian'er secretly asked Li Lanzhu, where did the little girl surnamed Yu come from? She seemed to have never seen her before.

Li Lanzhu coughed: "...Didn't I just say it? Her brother is Yu Er."

Wang Qian'er didn't react yet: "Ah?"

Li Lanzhu raised her voice a little: "It's the cunning guy who stole a business from my brother before! The second young master of the Yu family who has been in the limelight in recent years, Yu Yongbai!"

When Yu Yongbai was mentioned, Wang Qianer's eyes widened.

That cute little girl who was dressed in casual clothes was actually Yu Yongbai's sister?!

"She, she is Yu Yongbai's sister?" Wang Qianer asked in a soaring voice.

Yu Yongbai is a wealthy businessman who has risen rapidly in recent years. Wang Qianer regretted it very much now. If she had known that the little girl was Yu Yongbai's sister, wouldn't it be much better for her to sell the little girl than to earn the thirteen taels of silver? !

When Li Lanzhu heard Wang Qianer's frightened tone, she felt a little proud in her heart - although she didn't know where this pride came from.

…

Xingxing returned to the Liu family. When they had dinner together in the evening, she told her cousins ​​in a very fair manner about the misfortune that Siger had gotten into today.

Without a doubt, Siger's bouncy little butt was slapped by his father: "I've told you a long time ago that you must be careful when you go out. You ignored your father's words!"

Siger covered his butt and cried, and fell into his grandmother's arms and couldn't get out.

At this time he didn't dare to run to his mother. He knew that if he ran to his mother, he might get slapped by her again!

Wei Sanniang looked at her grandson, who was as timid as a quail, and a smile welled up in her eyes.

Liu Yuanfeng also said that he would compensate Xingxing for the money for the porcelain bowl.

Xing Xing said, "Uncle, you are being too polite. I was also responsible for not keeping an eye on Si Ge'er when he and I were playing outside. This time, we are both wrong."

Xing Xing blinked and said, "I am responsible for paying the bill and he is responsible for getting spanked. It's reasonable."

Both Liu Yuanfeng and Jiang Mengniang were amused.

Wei Sanniang also laughed out loud.

Si Ge'er covered his butt, unable to believe that he was the only one getting beaten in the family, why were everyone else laughing?

Xingxing spent two happy days at the Liu family. On the third day, just as Boger had said before, he finished his investigation and came to pick up Xingxing.

Wei Sanniang and Si Ge'er both couldn't bear to part with Xing Xing.

Siger cried loudly and refused to let Xingxing leave.

Later, Siger cried himself to sleep. Boger said goodbye to Wei Sanniang and the others, and left quickly taking Xingxing with him.

The brother and sister ran out of Liu's house like thieves.

The two looked at each other and then burst into laughter.

When Xingxing saw that Bo Ge'er looked relieved, she knew that her second brother must have made some progress in his investigation.

As expected, Bo Geer nodded to Xing Xing and took the initiative to say to her: "…There is a result. Let's talk about it when we get back."

The brother and sister returned to the small courtyard near the examination hall together.

Xing Xing glanced in the direction of the examination room: "...I don't know how Third Brother is doing in there."

Bo Ge'er comforted him, "Don't worry about that. With your third brother's ability, he will have no problem getting the ball."

Xing Xing shook her head, looking a little worried: "I'm not worried about Third Brother's studies. I'm worried about whether Third Brother has eaten well and slept well."

Her third brother seemed to be weaker than his other brothers since he was young.

Even though she has her pills, Xingxing still can't stop worrying!

When Bo Ge'er saw that Xing Xing was worried about Liu Ge'er, he felt a little relieved.

These brothers have really loved Xingxing all these years and it’s not in vain!

The brother and sister entered the house, and Xingxing asked about Bo Ge'er's investigation.

Bo Ge'er's expression straightened up, and his face looked a little unpredictable: "...Actually, this matter is quite interesting."
