Dressed as a paranoid male supporting white moonlight

Chapter 148 Excavation
The environment of Duan Mansion's main courtyard is fairly elegant, with white walls and blue tiles, nothing special about it.

At the entrance of the courtyard is a ginkgo tree one foot high. When autumn comes, the leaves are all withered and yellow. From a distance, it seems that the dry branches are full of resting yellow butterflies. It is golden and beautiful.

Jiang Xian walked around the ginkgo tree twice, and saw a section protruding from the root of the tree on the left.

She winked at Cui Nong.

Cui Nong was blessed to the heart, and according to Jiang Xian's instructions before leaving, he opened the lid of the food box of Jiuzhen Jade Food, and smiled courteously: "Aunt Li, the servant has brought cakes here, you can try it too."

Aunt Li didn't expect this to happen, she waved her hand quickly, "No way, this is Young Madam's pastry, how dare I be greedy."

"Cakes are for eating, Auntie, don't be polite."

Aunt Li was still refusing, but Cui Nong had already brought out the pastry, and the faint sweet aroma floated in the air, Aunt Li couldn't help being startled, "Why is this pastry so fragrant?"

Cui Nong talked eloquently: "This is the most famous 'Thirteen Pieces of Jiangnan' of Jiuzhen Jade Food, such as wick cake, lotus cake, sweet-scented osmanthus steamed chestnut flour cake, plum blossom cake... Our young lady made an appointment half a month in advance, It’s just that I made an appointment with such a freshly baked box.”

It turned out to be the pastry of Jiuzhen Yushi?

No wonder it makes your index finger twitch when you smell it.

Cui Nong brought out lotus-shaped pastries and tried her best to invite Aunt Li to taste them.Aunt Li made up her mind, stepped forward, wrapped one in a silk handkerchief, and said embarrassingly: "Then...the concubine should be respectful and obedient."

It was the first time for Aunt Li to eat such a delicate and special pastry.

At this moment, Cui Nong took out a small wine pot from the bottom of the food box, "The pastries are too choking, Auntie, come and have a cup of this fragrant drink..." Before he finished speaking, Cui Nong yelled "Ah yo" , with five fingers loosened, a pot full of fenugreek drink was spilled on Aunt Li.Aunt Li's skirt and skirt were wet, Cui Nong hurriedly knelt down and shouted, "Damn this slave, damn this slave".

How dare Aunt Li get angry at Jiang Xian's maid.When someone kindly invited her to eat pastries, she couldn't blame her, so she waved her hand bitterly, "It's okay, it's okay."

Jiang Xian pretended to be concerned, and hurriedly said: "It's cold, Auntie, go back and change your clothes, so as not to catch cold."

Aunt Li smiled ashamedly at Jiang Xian, "Young Madam made me laugh, I will go back as soon as I go."

Aunt Li led her maid to leave in a hurry, Cui Nong followed quietly, took a look, and gestured to Jiang Xian, "Let's go."

Upon hearing this, Mother Xu took out a small shovel from her sleeve, squatted under the ginkgo tree, and asked, "Young Madam, where are you digging?"

Jiang Xian pointed to the protruding tree roots on the left, "Here."

Madam Xu rolled up her sleeves and started working.

After digging a few times, the shovel seemed to touch a hard object.Mother Xu pushed aside the soil and dug out the hard object, only to find that it was a small carved wooden box about five inches.The wooden box was not locked, and Mother Xu opened it easily with a fingernail.

There is a folded sheet of letter paper in the wooden box.

Jiang Xian didn't even look at it, she put the letter in her pocket, took out another prepared note and stuffed it inside, said in a deep voice, "Bury the box back, don't let people see the trace."

"Yes."

Nanny Xu and Cui Nong were curious, but Jiang Xian didn't say anything, and it was not easy for them to ask as servants.

The three masters and servants cooperated tacitly and made a move in Duan Shilang's mansion to "transfer flowers and trees".When Aunt Li came over after changing her clothes, Jiang Xian pretended that she had almost finished her visit, and was about to take Madam Xu and Cui Nong to leave.

"I see that my aunt likes Jiuzhen Yushi's cakes very much. If you don't dislike them, I hope you will accept these cakes."

Cui Nong took the food box in time.

Aunt Li knew that she shouldn't accept it, but she was so greedy for the cakes inside, she said with a dry smile, "I just accepted the gift money for funerals from the young lady. How dare you... oh..." Even so, her hand has been removed from the cake. Cui Nong took the food box from there.

Jiang Xian smiled.

She vaguely remembered that it was mentioned in the book that this aunt had a gluttonous appetite, and now it seemed that she was right.
