The Cultivation of Concubine

Chapter 60 The witty brother-in-law (2)
A Jiao and Xiao Heng were sitting in the carriage, while Zhu Sheng was driving the carriage outside.

Ajiao was grateful, so she was more considerate than usual along the way.It's just that she still can't figure it out, this year is not over yet, why does Shizi want to run outside?Next time, if the Duke's wife asks, how should she explain it?
When the carriage passed the pawn shop, it stopped.

I'm really afraid of something.Ajiao was a little guilty, and raised her eyes to see the expression on Shi Ziye's face.

Xiao Heng handed the pawn ticket to the bamboo fungus outside with no expression on his face.

Zhu Sheng has always been quick to handle things, so she quickly got it done and handed over the four pieces of jewelry.

Xiao Heng took it, lowered his head and looked at it for a moment, and then looked at A Jiao.He stretched out his hand to hold Ajiao's hand, and put all these jade hairpin bracelets on her hand.Ajiao couldn't hold it completely in one hand, so he only held it in both hands, and asked doubtfully, "Master?"

Xiao Heng looked at her timid eyes, and said: "I don't want to redeem it a second time."

Ajiao was like an eggplant beaten by frost, her heart was full of shame and regret, and she hurriedly said: "This servant will not be confused anymore."

But I felt even more guilty.

She only paid 80 taels yesterday, but now she was redeemed by the son of the world in one day.She knew where the pawnshop was, and she didn't know how much money the prince spent this time.But thinking about it carefully, it's not right, Miss Liu didn't like these jewelry, and the Shizi had no one to give them to her, so I gave them to her.Why did he make a special trip to redeem it now? Isn't it a waste of money?

Ajiao couldn't figure out what these big family sons and brothers were thinking in their hearts, but he also knew that the son of the world was never short of money.If she hadn't learned from Xingyao that a painting of Shi Ziye was worth a thousand gold, she would not have known that Shi Ziye was so valuable.No, it's Shizi's paintings that are so valuable.

Thinking of this, Ajiao looked down at his hands.

——These hands are not only good-looking, but also a cash cow that makes money.

Xiao Heng knew that the little girl beside him was sizing him up, so he bent his lips slightly for a moment, feeling quite good, even sitting upright.After she watched for a long time, she turned her head to meet her eyes.Seeing her blushing and quickly lowering her head, he immediately became interested.

Normally, the little girl wore the servant girl's clothes of the Duke's mansion all day long, but when she left the mansion today, she changed into a half-old short jacket embroidered with orchids and red water chestnuts.Xu was afraid of the cold, so he wore a thick scarf around his neck, making his small face look more fair, petite, and tender.The double hanging bun is just the simplest bead flower. The little girl is combing her neat bangs at the moment. Below the bangs are a pair of big and bright eyes, which make people want to move.

A Jiao thought that the son was thirsty, so he poured water for him.

He was indeed thirsty.

Xiao Heng took it calmly, lowered his head to drink the water, and dissipated heat.

A Jiao felt that Master Shi Zi was really a careful person.Going home with her today, there is no brocade robe and jade belt like a guest, but a very simple azure round neck robe.The fabric of this robe is excellent, but it looks ordinary.In this way, the formality of identity is also reduced.It's just that people who are born rich and noble have an aura of nobility in their bones, which can't be concealed even by simple clothes.

Ajiao said: "If my son likes plum blossom wine, you can bring a few jars with you when we come back."

Xiao Heng used the word "we" very much, nodded and looked at Ajiao and said, "Then you know how to brew?"

Ajiao smiled awkwardly: "I don't know how to serve as a servant, in fact, we only came to Yancheng four years ago..."

Xiao Heng thought of something, held back his smile, and didn't speak any more.
