Chapter 310 Xie Mingan, can you speak?
Sister-in-law Liu was embarrassed to say it, covered her mouth, smiled and waved her hands repeatedly.

"Nothing, nothing. Okay, Ningning, I'll go back with my things. Thank you."

Seeing her running very fast, the little guy turned to look at Grandma Qin and Chen Ye.

"Grandma, Brother Chen, do you also know what she said?"

Chen Ye answered honestly: "I haven't heard of the old village chief buying a woman back."

"And the old village chief has a good character and will probably not do anything that violates the law."

Grandma Qin also nodded: "I'm afraid it's just a matter of speculation. The daughter-in-law of the Liu family complained that she saw a woman at the village chief's house."

"If this kind of thing is misunderstood, it will harm Lao Deng's family if it spreads, so Ning Ning, let's just leave it alone."

Shen Ningning said obediently.

When preparing to leave Xiangyun Village and send Aunt Yun and Uncle Zhong back to the shop.

The little guy passed by the old village chief's house.

But I saw that they had closed the door tightly.

Looking into the yard, there was a heavy felt curtain hanging behind the window, and nothing could be seen.

Shen Ningning scratched her face in confusion.

……

On this day, Xie Mingan and his subordinates finished processing the files and rushed back to the capital from Gyeonggi.

When passing by a jewelry store, the subordinate suddenly said apologetically: "Sir Shaoqing, can you please go back to Dali Temple first?"

"I want to buy something for my sister."

Xie Mingan held the reins with a stern expression, a bit inhumane.

Before he could speak, a colleague beside him began to tease this subordinate.

"I have long heard that Mr. Lu loves his sister, and today I saw that it is indeed true."

"It's just that you can do this shopping after you leave your job. Why do you have to rush now? We still have to follow Mr. Shaoqing back to Dali Temple to discuss matters."

The subordinate named Lu looked embarrassed and hesitant.

He repeatedly handed over his hand and apologized to Xie Ming'an.

"Because I annoyed my sister last time, she ignored me for several days."

"It is said that an angry woman must buy some good things to comfort her, but every time she is dismissed from Dali Temple, these shops are closed after the age of Xu."

"So...that's why I have this unkind invitation."

Xie Mingan is strict with himself and even stricter with his subordinates.

Since he came to Dali Temple to take office, he has put business matters first.

He often stayed away from home all day long, working on files and interrogating criminals without sleep or food.

What a pain for these subordinates.

Xie Ming'an's cold eyes looked indifferent, and after a moment, he said: "You brother and sister have a good relationship, okay, let's go and see it together."

He turned over and dismounted, and walked into the jewelry store under the secretly surprised eyes of the other officials.

How could the inhumane Mr. Xie Shaoqing still have such a reasonable side?
Those officials thought that Mr. Lu would definitely be scolded.

Xie Mingan has never been to a store specializing in women's jewelry since he was a child.

In his impression, when he was young, he personally cut a wooden hairpin for his mother Shen Siyi.

Later, the wooden hairpin accompanied my mother and was buried in the coffin.

Xie Mingan walked to Master Lu.

I saw him pick up a bunch of colorful hairpins inlaid with various kinds of precious stones.

Xie Mingan frowned: "The colors are so tacky, why not choose a hosta?"

He pointed to the stage on the other side.

On it are placed pure and elegant hostas of various colors without any unnecessary decoration.

Mr. Lu smiled implicitly: "Sir, you handle cases like a god."

"But when it comes to buying hairpins, you don't want to go down to the official position. Your sister is just eleven or twelve years old, Shao Ai."

"She likes sparkling and multi-colored hairpin jewelry the most. Not only this, but also gemstones, pearls and emeralds. She likes them all."

With that said, Mr. Lu handed the selected hairpin to the clerk in the store.

"I want this. Please help me get the brocade box to put it in."

Xie Ming'an groaned, reaching out and picking up a bunch of colorful butterfly hairpins.

The delicate butterfly is outlined with silver wire, and the dazzling lights on the butterfly wings are actually made up of countless tiny rubies stacked on top of each other.

This requires excellent craftsmanship.

Under the butterfly, there is a tassel-like brilliant orb.

When you turn it gently, you can hear a crisp sound.

In such a gloomy snowy day, it must be very eye-catching to have such a unique hairpin.

Master Lu saw Xie Mingan looking at the butterfly hairpin in trance.

He understood it and said to the waiter: "This hairpin is also wrapped for me. Let's settle the bill together."

Xie Mingan came to his senses.

"No need."

"Master Shaoqing, please don't be polite to me. Thank you for your advice this time when you return to Beijing."

Mr. Lu cupped his hands and smiled and said, "Besides, I heard that Princess Funing is now your adopted sister."

"I had to be reminded by the princess before to prepare cold-proof equipment, so that my family would not suffer from the cold."

"So, this hairpin should be regarded as a tribute from the lower official to the princess."

Xie Ming'an refused with a cold face.

He said: "Shen Ningning is still young, you don't have to do anything to please her so as not to spoil the child."

Mr. Lu's expression froze and he nodded awkwardly.

"You said so."

Xie Mingan handed the hairpin to the clerk in the store.

"How much silver is this? Wrap it up in a brocade box for me."

Mr. Lu looked at him in surprise.

I thought Xie Mingan was not going to buy it.

For several days.

Xie Mingan didn't even wait for Shen Ningning.

Finally, on the day Xie Suzhi returned from the palace, Shen Ningning also came to Xie's mansion to visit him.

The little guy was chatting happily with Xie Suzhi in the study.Just like a real father and daughter.

Xie Suzhi's fatigue from being busy with government affairs for the past few days was wiped away the moment he saw Shen Ningning.

Shen Ningning just came out of the study.

Then I met Xie Mingan walking towards me.

The little guy curled his lips silently, and she raised her little head, pretending not to see Xie Ming'an, and passed him by.

"Wait." Xie Mingan called to her.

Shen Ningning looked back, her big eyes looking suspiciously.

"what's up?"

Xie Ming'an put his hands behind his hands and held the brocade box tightly with his fingertips.

A fine strand of sweat formed on the slender palms.

For some reason, facing Shen Ningning, he suddenly felt embarrassed to take out his things.

"Um," Xie Mingan asked, "Is father in the study?"

Shen Ningning pouted: "Yes."

After all, she turned to leave.

Xie Mingan opened her thin lips slightly, wanting to call her to stop, but Shen Ningning walked away quickly.

After a while, the little figure disappeared around the corner of the corridor.

Xie Suzhi opened the door at this time and asked with a majestic expression: "Ming'an, are you looking for me?"

Xie Mingan glanced at him, a little annoyed: "I don't want to look for him now."

With that said, he strode away.

One of the people left behind, Xie Su, froze in place and frowned: "What's wrong with you again?"

At night, the family finished their meal.

Mrs. Xie Er excused herself from feeling uncomfortable and left early.

Mr. Xie sighed: "Recently, Wan Jiu has been writing every day, crying and complaining about the cold weather and the cold weather. She has been ill several times."

"Brother, I would like to fuck her..." Mr. Xie seemed to want to plead, but in the end, he shook his head and sighed.

"Forget it, nothing."

Xie Suzhi calmly poured water for Shen Ningning.

His tone was calm: "Second brother, I told you last time."

"Zhang Jiu is at a critical time for her growth. If her character is bad, your doting will only harm her."

"Don't worry. The servants from my hometown in Changzhou have taken good care of her. I never heard from the housekeeper that she was sick. I probably wanted to go back to Beijing, so I lied to you in the letter."

Mr. Xie was stunned and looked a little angry.

"My wife must have taught her to be so deceitful, how can this be unreasonable!" He punched the table, very displeased.

Mr. Xie is upright himself, but he doesn't like that Mrs. Xie always teaches his children too much.

Shen Ningning picked up her chicken legs and put them into Mr. Xie's bowl.

"Second uncle, if you eat meat, don't be angry after eating it."

"The miracle doctor said that only if you feel better will you have a chance to get better."

"Don't be angry, don't be angry, eat meat." The little guy's voice was waxy and endearing.

Mr. Xie Erye and Xie Suzhi laughed at the same time.

The two looked at Shen Ningning with gentle eyes.

"Ning Ning is so good. My second uncle is not angry anymore. It would be great if I wish Jiujiu were half as obedient as you."

Xie Ming'an watched calmly from the side.

In his memory, since his mother passed away, his father was silent and his second uncle became manic at times due to illness.

But after Shen Ningning appeared, his father smiled more.

Even the second uncle rarely loses his temper.

Finish a meal.

Xie Suzhi called Mr. Xie to the study to discuss the war.

Late spring and late spring were supposed to take Shen Ningning back to the room.

However, Xie Mingan called the little guy from behind again.

Shen Ningning looked back: "What's the matter?"

Xie Mingan finally took out the brocade box generously.

His face was expressionless, concealing the turmoil in his heart.

He said calmly: "It's for you."

Shen Ningning's big eyes gleamed.

She shook her head: "I don't want it. What if it's a bad thing and you want to harm me?"

There was a crack in Xie Mingan's pretended calm expression.

"You think too much!" He opened the box and revealed the shining butterfly hairpin inside.

Shen Ningning's eyes lit up.

Wow!It's a little butterfly!

The little guy has known about beauty since he was sensible.

In the past, her family background was not good, and she was reluctant to wear new clothes.

Now that my life is better, I can’t bear to spend so much money on those beautiful jewelry.

It's all Mo Lingwei's reward and what she uses.

Seeing such a beautiful butterfly hairpin, the little guy's heart moved.

Unexpectedly, Xie Mingan said immediately, "This is a meeting gift for you, one for each of the sisters in the house."

"Take yours first. When Yuanjiu comes back, I will give her another one."

Shen Ningning was about to extend her hand to take it, but suddenly stopped.

The little guy's fair and tender face looked silently cold.

Even Wuchun frowned upon hearing this.

This second young master is really good at handling cases, but he really doesn't know how to deal with people.

Who are you trying to piss off by talking like this?

 I've been a little busy lately. After I caught a cold a while ago (I guess it was Er Yang), my head has been feeling dull and my reaction time has been slow. I feel a bit like a capillary now, and even more sad. Please give me some comfort and support. (Rolling back and forth and whining...)
