Chapter 224
A gorgeous carriage drove towards Baicao Lu.

Zhou Xiner stroked the food box with pride on her face.

She had just been appreciated by Marquis Pingjin, and his attitude towards her changed overnight.

That censor's wife.

It turned out that she was trying different ways to get close to her without even looking at her seriously.

As a result, I invited her this morning to enjoy the flowers in the afternoon!

snort!
What a shame!
When she becomes the adopted daughter of Marquis Pingjin, watch how she tramples on them.

But soon.

Last night she came to deliver tofu and ginseng, and Marquis Pingjin praised her for her intelligence and was extremely satisfied with her. He estimated that when Mrs. Marquis recovered from her illness, she would become a noblewoman in the capital.

The carriage stopped.

Zhou Xiner carried the food box into Baicao House, but did not see Pingjin Hou and his wife. When she went to ask Old Man Hu, he was told that it was inconvenient to disclose.

"Actually, instead of knowing where the Marquis is, it's better to know what the Marquis really wants?" Old Man Hu stroked his beard with an inscrutable look on his face.

Zhou Xiner immediately humbly said: "Please give me some advice from shopkeeper Hu."

Baicaolu is the largest medicinal shop in Beijing, and she knows that this old man is not simple.

But Old Man Hu lowered his voice: "Outsiders only saw Mrs. Hou living in Baicao Lu to recuperate, but they didn't know that they came to buy ginseng! Ginseng is the most nourishing, but how long can you eat just one or two strands?"

Old Man Hu stopped talking and just looked at Zhou Xiner with a smile.

Zhou Xiner understood.

Mrs. Hou has been weak and sick for many years and needs ginseng for nourishment. However, Baicaolu Millennium Ginseng costs 2 taels per stick. Even Pingjin Hou cannot afford that much.

So if she could give ginseng again, she would be the adopted daughter!

"I'll buy two!" Zhou Xiner gritted her teeth.

"Okay, Mrs. Qian is really smart!"

Old Man Hu sent Zhou Xiner away, counting the banknotes one by one, smiling like an old fox.

There are eight ginseng plants in total.

The last two plants were also tricked out.

OK!

Villa.

The three old ladies got out of the carriage as if they were uncoordinated. After taking two steps, there was a crackle!Yellow things rolled down the clothes of the old ladies.

It was actually a fresh persimmon.

One, two, actually sixteen!
Everyone was stunned.

The three old ladies were so distressed that they quickly picked up the persimmons, rubbed them and blew them, and held them in their arms.

"Let's go, do it quickly!" Mrs. Qian urged.

"Do you know how to do it?" asked Mrs. Zhou.Mrs. Wang waved her hand and said, "It's all about sunbathing. Is this possible?"

The three old ladies hurriedly entered the villa.

Shen Huiyun: "!!"

So, in addition to stealing those rotten things when you come to the villa, you also want to cook them yourself?

Everyone looked at each other, what was going on!
As soon as the group arrived at the garden, a message came from a carrier pigeon.

Liu Quan gave the creed to Mrs. Zhou. Mrs. Zhou looked at it and instantly turned cold.

"Mom, what happened?" Shen Huiyun asked hurriedly.

Mrs. Zhou threw the creed directly to her: "This is the good thing you did!"

Shen Huiyun looked pale and instantly turned pale.

"Mom, this is a letter from the palace and has nothing to do with Huiyun!" Xiao Danqing defended.

But when he took the creed, his expression suddenly changed: "Xian Jue not only won the battle this time but also suppressed the bandits, but the emperor only rewarded him with gold and silver and did not promote him to an official position!"

You must know that all officials can be promoted if they have meritorious service, especially military merit.

If you only reward money, it is tantamount to swearing.

"Hmph! Ask your good wife!" Mrs. Zhou didn't even want to look at Shen Huiyun.

Snapped!
Shen Huiyun knelt on her knees: "Mom, I was wrong! It was I who made the emperor misunderstand the Xiao family and harmed A Jue!"

In fact, when she knew the truth, she still felt that the emperor would not blame her.

After all, she killed her relatives out of justice, and the Xiao family has been loyal for generations.

However, the so-called not blaming actually wiped out all her son's achievements.

That was what Ah Jue had gained in exchange for bleeding and injuries, but it was completely ruined by her stupid impulse.

At this moment, she really regretted it!

Liu Quan stepped forward and told the whole story.

After listening, Xiao Chu and Xiao Danqing fell silent.

"Mom, Hui Yun did this wrong, just punish us!" Xiao Danqing also knelt down.

It turns out that he has not been promoted to the official position of Xiao Jue!

But what actually consumed was the emperor's favor and trust in the Xiao family.

"Oops!" Suddenly, Mrs. Zhou slapped her head: "We have all come to the villa, and no one has sent a message to Xiao Jue and the little peasant woman. Xiao Jue doesn't even know where the little peasant woman lives!"

"Miss!"

Just when Liu Momo was about to ask for his life, Mrs. Zhou said: "Forget it, forget it! If you can't see me, you can't see me. What a big deal!"

Liu Momo: "!!!"
