Crazy criticizes the regent for reading my mind and his character collapses

Chapter 102 Is the government office very busy now?

"Shopkeeper, I want to buy a green parrot with a wisp of red hair on its head. Can you find one?" Nan Xi said and put a piece of silver on the counter.

The shopkeeper collected the money very naturally, smoothed his goatee with one hand, and said: "I have seen a bird like this before. Where did I see it? I have to think about it again..."

Nan Xi handed over another ingot of silver.

The shopkeeper smiled "hehe", took the money, and naturally had the answer.

He hooked his hands towards Nan Xi, waited for her to get closer, and then lowered his voice and said, "Nan Ji Mi Pu."

Nan Xi frowned subconsciously: "Are you sure?"

Shopkeeper: "Of course, they also came to my place to ask how to raise a parrot, but that bird probably didn't come from a good place, so I asked a few more questions and was scolded for no reason. That woman was even more outrageous. , almost blackmailed me into half a bag of birdseed."

As he spoke, he reminded Nan Xi: "That family is very philistine and loves petty gains. If you want to buy a bird from them, you will probably spend a lot of money."

"Thank you, shopkeeper." As soon as Nan Xi walked out of Xiangle Zhai, Wen Ying came over.

Wen Ying: "Nannan, I asked about it. Someone saw a bird that looked like a pepper near Nanji Mipu.

When they arrived near Nanji Mipu, Wen Ying said, "Nan Nan, I'd better go in alone."

Nan Xi knew that Wen Ying was concerned about her relationship with the Nan family.

Although Wen Ying appears informal, he is actually as considerate as dust and knows how to take care of the emotions of those around him.

"It doesn't matter to me. I'll attract their attention from the front for a while. You go to the back to explore and see if the bird is really there." Nan Xi said.

Wen Ying nodded: "Okay."

Business at Nanji Mipu is very good today. Jiang Wan and Nan Huaidong are both here, but most of the time they only use words but don't do anything, directing the workers to work.

When Nan Xi walked in, the two of them were startled at first.

Then Jiang Wan put down the melon seeds in her hand and threw them over with a roll of her eyes, "Hey, the sun is really shining in the west. Why do the famous people around the prince come to our shop? Could it be that they are disliked and they see us as rich, so they just thought Are you coming back to be our daughter?"

Nan Xi never quite understood Jiang Wan's mind. They were the ones who gave up on the original owner in Pingshi Town, and they were the ones who took the initiative to sever ties after arriving in the capital.

Why does Jiang Wan always criticize her every time they meet, saying that she dislikes being poor and loves being rich, and points all kinds of fingers at her?
Who gave Jiang Wan such confidence?

Original author?

"I'm working in the yamen now, and I'm here today to ask you if you picked up a parrot with green feathers and a red head?" Nan Xi directly explained the purpose of his visit.

Jiang Wan and Nan Huaidong looked at each other.

Jiang Wan: "I know you are working in the yamen, but aren't you just a low-level official? What's so great about it? My son didn't do well in the scientific examination this time. When he goes to high school next time, he will definitely become a senior official."

Since Nan Huaidong gained money and confidence, he felt that his son would become a great person.

Originally, he didn't like Nan Xi as his 'daughter', and after severing the relationship, he was even more unwilling to interact with her, so he straightened his back and said in a deep voice: "Our family does have a parrot, and it is very expensive. The variety, but I didn’t pick it up, I bought it with a lot of money. Why, is the government office very busy now? Does it even have to take care of such things? "

Nan Xi dared to ask directly because he recognized Jiang Wan and Nan Huaidong's tendency to show off in a high-profile manner.

"Then can I see it?"

You have to first determine whether the bird is a chili pepper, and then you can help Granny Xu get it back.Jiang Wan's eyes flashed slightly, as if she felt guilty, and her tone of voice involuntarily raised a few points.

"You have nothing to do with our family anymore. Why should we show you the bird we raise? It is a very precious bird. If it is broken and frightened, can you afford to pay for it?"

Nan Xi was almost certain that the birds raised by the Nan family were not bought by them. In all likelihood, they were the peppers lost by Granny Xu.

"Just in time, someone reported that a green parrot was lost. I suspect it's the one you picked up..."

Jiang Wan directly interrupted Nan Xi and started to chase people away: "I told you that we bought it. It cost...it cost us 500 taels. You said you picked it up with red lips and white teeth? What evidence do you have? ? Don’t delay our business without evidence!"

Nan Xi was not upset. After leaving Mipu, he went to the alley next door, and Wen Ying happened to climb over the wall.

"Wen Wen, I just deliberately told them about Granny Xu losing her bird. Next, they will definitely go and see the parrot. We just need to keep an eye on them." Nan Xi said.

Wen Ying shook his head: "I just checked their backyard and didn't see any parrots."

But it's also possible that Jiang Wan and the others kept the birds elsewhere.

Wen Ying suggested: "Go and have a look again?"

"Okay." Nan Xi nodded.

The two of them jumped to the top of the wall. Wen Ying was worried that Nan Xi had just learned Qing Gong and had an unstable foundation, so he deliberately held her waist.

After the Nan family built the jewelry store, they opened up the backyard of the rice store and the jewelry store. The yard looked very large, and many seemingly luxurious but actually useless furnishings were added to the yard.

Instead, these things became a cover for Nan Xi and Wen Ying. They stuck behind the rockery and watched Jiang Wan and Nan Huaidong hurriedly walk from the rice shop in the front yard.

"Damn it, how did that damn girl know that we picked up a parrot?" Jiang Wan scolded as she walked: "She must have been seen when we went to the bird market before. Those poor ghosts like to talk about people behind their backs. If I knew Who told the secret? I have to tear his mouth open!"

The two entered a room, and then Jiang Wan's exclamation came out.

"Where's the parrot? Why is it missing?"

Nan Huaidong asked: "Did you put it in another room and forget it?"

Jiang Wan said firmly: "Impossible! I obviously put it in a cage and hung it here, how could it not be there?"

Just as he was talking, Nan Mingkun came back from outside drunk.

The maid went to help him and was touched obscenely by him. She blushed in embarrassment but did not dare to refuse.

Hearing their son's voice, the couple hurriedly walked out.

Nan Huaidong resented the lack of steel: "You drink like this in broad daylight, sleep every day, go out to the brothels at night, and don't read any books. How can you take the scientific examination next time and become a high official?"

Nan Mingkun looked unconcerned: "What are you afraid of? Anyway, we have a backstage now. In the worst case, just tell her and ask her to arrange an official position for me?"

Jiang Wan rolled her eyes at Nan Huaidong and said, "That's right, she owes her current wealthy life to me, so she should help us now."

After saying that, she asked Nan Mingkun: "Son, have you seen that parrot?"

　There must be a baby who misses the prince. Don’t worry, he will appear in the next chapter.
