Chapter 17

Linglan was unwilling, and together with Wen Ning, wearing a veiled hat, avoiding crowds, found a remote pawn shop, and sold the jewelry.

Linglan also didn't understand 1 times, and followed Wen Ning and babbled: "Girl, if you are short of money, I will go to the butler to pay for it. The master has never been tight with you about money. If it doesn't help, let's go to the big Young Master, Eldest Young Master loves you the most, so why would you sell your jewelry..."

"Girl, I saved up these jewels with great difficulty. Some of the treasures, the craftsmen have passed away and cannot be reproduced. How can you be willing to sell them..."

No matter what Linglan said, Wen Ning was unmoved.

If you don't sell it now, you will sell it sooner or later.She didn't want to be noticed, so she only picked up some light and valuable ones this time, the ones at home that come in a complete set, and she will find a way to deal with them later.

"girl……"

When she finally came out of the pawn shop, Linglan's eyes were red.

She was so sorry.Those are the facades for girls to marry in the future!
Wen Ning didn't explain too much, took the bank note, took Linglan, and went to the Ministry of War.

She was going to the Ministry of War to find her second brother Wen Qi. For such absurd matter, she could only find the absurd Wen Qi before she would be willing to help her.

When the two arrived at the Ministry of War, it was the time to be on duty.

Although Wen Qi is in the Ministry of War, he is responsible for managing military registration, which is considered a civilian job.He looks more handsome than Wen Lan, with a bit more unruly expression in his eyebrows and eyes. As soon as he walks out, he stands out from the crowd.

"Second Young Master!" Linglan called out cautiously from the corner.

Wen Qi saw two girls standing at the entrance of the military department, wearing veiled hats, delicate and weak, and recognized Wen Ning and Linglan after a moment of stupefaction, with a surprised smile on his face: "Why are you here? "

Wen Ning hasn't seen Wen Qi for a long time.

Her second brother, since childhood, was clever and had many tricks. He was the one who encouraged Wen Lan to agree to take her out to play through a dog hole.As an adult, he still has many ideas and thoughts, and often does some outrageous things. He said before that he wanted to go into business, but Wen Tingchun firmly refused. Just went back to have a family meal.

In the past two months, it is said that the military department has been busy, and even Xiu Mu has not gone back.

"Second brother, shall we have a cup of tea together?" Wen Ning lifted a corner of the veiled hat, looked at him and smiled.

The two found a teahouse and sat down in a box.

Linglan was serving tea at the side, she pricked up her ears by the way, and heard what Wen Ning wanted to do to find the second son after exchanging those bank notes.

Wen Ning was also direct, and said to Wen Qi after a cup of tea: "Second brother, Ah Ning came here because I wanted to ask my second brother for help."

With a soft and sweet voice, Wen Qi raised his brows, knowing that it was not a trivial matter that his sister asked him to help.

But the younger sister is his own, and he is always happy to be used to it, so he smiled and said: "What is it that Ah Ning can't wait for, and came to the military department to find the second brother? Tell me."

Wen Ning took a sip of tea, coughed lightly, wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief awkwardly, then lowered her eyes and said, "Second Brother, Ah Ning has recently... recently taken a fancy to a scholar..."

Linglan's hands pouring the tea trembled, almost knocking the teapot off.

Wen Qi also looked at his younger sister who was especially reserved after she became sensible.

"But that scholar seems to have no interest in Ah Ning..." Wen Ning frowned sadly, "A few days ago, Ah Ning asked my elder brother to make peace, and arranged for me to meet him in private, but he showed a lack of interest."

Wen Ning sighed deeply: "In the past few days, I asked Linglan to send me letters, but he hasn't responded to any of them. I'm afraid I haven't even read them, is it Linglan?"

Just thinking about her girl's performance, Ling Lan, who was not even liked by the prince, was suddenly named, stunned, and stammered: "Yes... yes..."

Wen Qi had an expression of "you can still do such a thing", obviously doubting her words.

"Could it be that you and Shen Jin had some bad ideas and made a cage for the second brother to drill?"

The engagement between Wen Ning and Shen Jin fell through, and Wen Qi naturally knew about it.

It's just that in his opinion, Wen Ning and Shen Jin are like-minded, and Wen Ning is all about him. A few months ago, he asked his colleagues to find out about Shen Jin's situation in the army. How could it be so easy to empathize?He also did such extraordinary things as meeting men privately.

"Second brother, Ah Ning's relationship with Second Young Master Shen is just a brother-sister relationship. The marriage contract is broken, so don't tease Ah Ning with this matter." Wen Ning tugged on Wen Qi's sleeve, her water-colored eyes longingly looked at her. he.

Wen Qi loves wine, but he has never tasted it lightly, and will not be greedy, so there is no smell of alcohol on his body, but a pleasant scent of tea.

He lowered his eyes and looked down at his sister.

It was found that her eyes were clear and unwavering, and when she mentioned the marriage contract with Shen Jin, she was really frank and frank, without any evasive affection.

Could it be that she was telling the truth?

"You!" Wen Qi pinched Wen Ning's face, "After all, what's going on with the scholar, and what are you going to do?"

Wen Ning immediately laughed happily: "I know that the second brother loves me the most!"

"Perhaps the second elder brother has heard of that scholar. He is the Huiyuan of the Chunwei Exam. His name is Wang You."

Wen Qi drank tea lightly.He had really heard that this person had been very popular in Beijing recently, and he was occasionally mentioned in the Ministry of War.

"Second elder brother, this man is talented, handsome and handsome. He will definitely win the first prize in the palace examination in a few days. A dashing champion!"

Recently, Wen Ning has gained a lot of experience in acting in love with Wang You. At this moment, the expression of admiration is very natural. Speaking of Wang You, her eyes light up.

But then the light dimmed, and she sighed dejectedly: "It's a pity that Ah Ning failed to win his favor a few days ago. After a few days, the results of the palace examination will be released. With his talent and demeanor, if he wins the first place, how can Ah Ning be able to be like Xiao?" Thought?"

"So?" Wen Qi looked at her with a smile.

Wen Ning licked her lips, moved the chair closer to Wen Qi, and people moved closer to him, looked at him and said softly: "Second brother... Ah Ning wants... I want to catch my son-in-law on the day the list is released!"

Snapped--

This time Linglan didn't hold the teapot in her hand, she was so shocked that it shattered to the ground.
