Flowers are expensive

Chapter 521
After coming out of Xixi's courtyard, Zuo Chanyin was still frowning.Zuo Yan asked: "Is my sister still suspicious of this class leader Li?"

Zuo Chan nodded and said: "I always feel that she is a bit weird, but I can't tell what is weird about her."

"She said she was from Korea, and it's impossible for us to actually send someone to Korea to investigate. If my sister thinks this troupe is inappropriate, it's best to dismiss it early."

"No." Zuo Chanyin shook his head and said, "Grandma likes this troupe very much. If she dismisses it hastily, she will definitely be unhappy."

"Then what's my sister going to do? Are you going to keep them here? If they really have a different heart, wouldn't it be to lure wolves into the house? Well, let's say that Team Leader Li has a baby in shock, and is afraid that the premature delivery will bump into grandma in Haitang Zhai. It was moved out."

Zuo Chanyin nodded and smiled and said, "Your third son has a lot of ideas, so just do as you say! It's good to dismiss it, so as not to cause any trouble. You can tell grandma about this later, and I'll take care of it first." Go back to Prince Qi's mansion."

"understood."

After watching Zuo Chan chant away, Zuo Yan softly asked Dr. Zhou next to him, "How's the pulse?"

"It should be twins, and they are less than seven months old, so the belly is so big that it looks like they are about to give birth."

"Go back first, do you know what to say?"

"Third young master, don't worry, the little one won't talk nonsense."

"Go!"

Doctor Zhou hurried away with the medicine box on his back.After he walked away, Zuo Yan returned to the yard.Xixi had just dismissed the others and was about to go back to her room to rest, but unexpectedly he came back, and hurriedly greeted her and asked, "Nani, Mr. Umbrella Sweeper?"

Zuo Yan glanced at the pendant hanging around her neck and said, "Mrs. Sister-in-law, let's talk inside!"

Xixi was startled, and stared at Zuo Yan in a daze: What?Mrs. sister-in-law?This... What is this kid's background?Could it be that he saw something?
Zuo Yan smiled without saying a word, bypassing Xixi and entering the side hall.Xi Xi hurriedly followed in and asked, "Ni, does Ni die from beginning to end?"

Zuo Yan sat down and said, "Sister-in-law don't need to pretend to me anymore, I probably guessed who you are."

"Uh?"

Zuo Yan pointed to the small wood-carved pendant and said with a smile: "If I remember correctly, your pendant should really be carved by your husband, but your husband didn't die, but was placed under house arrest in Prince Qi's mansion, right? And this The pendant has a nice name, Moonlight Treasure Box, am I right, Madam Sister-in-law?"

"You..." Xixi jumped back with excitement, "How do you know?"

Zuo Yan laughed twice and said, "Of course someone told me."

"impossible!"

"Why is it impossible? Because my surname is Zuo? Madam, don't panic, I'm not here to expose you. It's just that my sister has already become suspicious of you, and you can no longer stay in Haitang Zhai."

Xixi looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Who the hell are you? Why are you saying these things to me?"

"Let me tell you this, I once saw a wooden pendant exactly like yours on Brother Yuanyin. He told me that it was called the Moonlight Treasure Box."

"Have you met Zhao Yuanyin?"

"I saw him before he was under house arrest, and I haven't seen him since. It doesn't matter whether you can see him or not. The important thing is that everything is fine with him, so you don't have to worry."

Xixi breathed a sigh of relief, sat down beside Zuo Yan, pointed to him and asked, "So, you are a secret agent lurking in Zuo's mansion?"

"That's it!"

"But your surname is Zuo, how can you help the Qi Palace?"

"Let's save this for later. Sister-in-law, you are really courageous. Apart from admiration, I can only remind you that the situation in Beijing and China is complicated, and it is not a place for you to stay for a long time. I understand your eagerness to save your husband. But now that you are pregnant with Liujia, it is really not appropriate to worry about these things."

"And then? Do you want me to leave?" Xixi shook her head and said, "Since I'm here, I don't plan to leave. I won't leave until I see Zhao Yuanyin. Because I'm pregnant, others It's not that suspicious of me."

"But my sister is already suspicious of you. She is a person who likes to ask questions. If you don't leave, it will only make her doubt your origin even more."

"On the other hand, if she really becomes suspicious of me, if I leave in a hurry, I'm afraid I'll be stopped by her within a few miles of the capital. That's like 300 taels of silver here."

"But Mrs. Sister-in-law is so risky, it's too worrying. If my sister really checks you, your strange tongue and this veil won't be able to cover you up for long."

Xixi nodded and said: "I understand, but right now I just sprinkled the gunpowder, and the fuse has not had time to ignite, so I just left, I am really not reconciled. Since your sister has already become suspicious of me, instead of waiting If she came to check on me, it would be better to strike first!"

Zuo Yan became interested, and asked with a smile: "What's the best idea for Mrs. Sister-in-law?"

Xixi patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Since it's my own, I need your help."

"my pleasure!"

"Sure enough!" Xixi said with a sinister smile, "There are people in the court who are easy to handle! With your secret work in Zuofu, then I can run things more smoothly! You don't need to be too revealing, as long as Just fan the wind and add some firewood at the right time."

"Sister-in-law, go ahead and say, I will do my best."

Immediately, Xixi talked to Zuo Yan about his later plans.After a detailed discussion, Zuo Yan left.Zhuang Yunxian only found out about Zuo Yan's identity as a "spy" when she came out to look for Xixi, and she couldn't help asking in wonder: "You trust him that much? Are you afraid that he was sent by the Zuo family to find out?"

Xixi touched the wooden pendant hanging on the neck and said: "This pendant was placed under my pillow when I woke up. Xin'er said that it was carved by Zhao Yuanyin himself when I was unconscious, and it played a nice song Its name is Moonlight Treasure Box. Only Zhao Yuanyin and Xin'er know about it. If he and Zhao Yuanyin hadn't had a close relationship, how could Zhao Yuanyin have told him about such a love affair?"

Zhuang Yunxian suddenly realized: "So that's how it is!"

"It's easy now!" Xi Xi clasped his hands together and smiled, "With our people in the Zuo family, it's much easier to set fire to the Zuo family's backyard. Although it's a bit risky, I can't retreat at this juncture, in that case Everything we did before was in vain!"

"Does Zuo Yan want you to leave?"

"He thinks so, but I said, I won't leave until I see Zhao Yuanyin," Xi Xi smiled strangely, and made a gesture of sowing seeds, "The next thing we have to do is to continue to sprinkle gunpowder, Lay out the lead, and wait for the last good time to ignite the fire!"

Zhuang Yunxian shook her shoulders and said with a smile: "Look how proud you are! Let Zhao Yuanyin know carefully, and tie you out of the city!"

"I've already told Zuo Yan that he won't tell Zhao Yuanyin for the time being. He also wants to solve the Zuo family as soon as possible and save Zhao Yuanyin and Prince Qi and his son!"

That night, when Zuo Yan went to Mrs. Zuo's room to greet her, the girl was feeding her porridge.Everyone else is already getting better, but she is still lying there, after all, she is getting old and exhausted.

After saluting, Zuo Yan greeted, "Is grandma feeling better?"

"What's good?" Mrs. Zuo rolled her eyes and said, "Anyway, I still have some breath!"

"Grandma, don't be angry, it's not worthwhile to be angry, is it?"

"Is there something wrong? Go out if you have nothing to do!"

"Yes, the troupe leader Li was a little scared. In the morning, my sister asked me to invite the doctor to come and see him. The doctor said that there are some signs of premature delivery, so it's better to move out of the house as soon as possible."

"What an injustice!" Mrs. Zuo pushed away the spoon that the girl brought to her mouth with her palm, and said angrily, "If that bastard didn't cause trouble, why would he be in shock?"

"Originally, my grandson wanted to keep that leader Li for grandma, but it's a pity that leader Li is really scared. Earning money is a trivial matter, and the one in her stomach is her husband's posthumous son. If something happens, she can't follow him." Husbands under Nine Springs, confess! So, the grandson made the decision on behalf of the grandma, and let them leave tomorrow after paying their wages."

"Alas!" Mrs. Zuo turned her head unhappy and sighed.

At this time, An Shi led Zuo Xing Zuo Che to pay his respects.It doesn't matter if they don't come, Mrs. Zuo feels even more unhappy when they come!Before Anshi could speak, she said coldly: "What's the matter? Can't wait to see if I'm dead or not?"

"Mother, where did you go? Xing'er and Che'er wanted to come and see you, to see if you're better." An Shi said hastily.

"As long as the dose was light when the medicine was given, I'm afraid I'll be cured sooner!" Mrs. Zuo said angrily.

Zuo Xing Zuo Che was full of displeasure, rolled his eyes and lowered his head without saying a word.An Shi said again: "Mother, please forgive them! They are still children..."

"Children's fart!" Mrs. Zuo said angrily, "How old is Zuo Xing, isn't he seventeen? What about Zuo Che? Fifteen, right? I think Zuo Hui (the eldest of the Zuo family) started judging at the age of 16, and he was 17 years old. You went to court with his father, and you still have the face to say that your two sons are children? Are you not afraid of others' jokes when you say it?"

An Shi didn't dare to speak anymore, knowing that she would be scolded even worse if she spoke up, so she might as well just listen.But the two brothers behind her clenched their fists with clenched teeth, with angry expressions on their faces.

Mrs. Zuo scolded again: "Don't mention Zuo Hui and Zuo Heng, you can't compare with that! Just take Zuo Yan as an example, half of you should be as obedient and sensible as him, so why bother me so much? Zuo Yan has been motherless since he was a child, what about the two of you? A man with a mother is better than a man without a mother, what's the use of raising him?"

Both Zuo Xing and Zuo Che had gloomy faces, trying their best to control the anger in their hearts.And Zuo Yan stood beside him with a calm expression, as if it had nothing to do with him.

"Let's talk about the theater troupe! It's so easy to find someone I like, and the three of you mothers will run out of ways! Now it's over, I don't want to stay, for fear of hurting my baby! My son has raised such a Vice-virtuous, how do you talk about getting married in the future? Those famous families in Beijing are willing to marry their good daughters to the two of them!"

Zuo Xing couldn't hold back anymore, raised his head and glanced at Zuo Yan with disdain and said, "Grandma, you think Zuo Yan listens to you, don't you? It's all in person! You asked him to marry that jade aster, and he said I promised, but behind the scenes I am still entangled with the little princess of Prince Qi's mansion!"

"What?" Mrs. Zuo was stunned for a moment, then turned to ask Zuo Yan, "Is it true? Are you still entangled with that little princess?"

Before Zuo Yan could speak, Zuo Xing complained first: "Grandma, it's absolutely true! I went to Faguang Temple with Zuo Che yesterday, and happened to bump into him chatting with the little princess on the bell tower. It's so pleasant! This Forget it, he even gave the little princess a pearl hairpin, which he personally brought for him!"

"Zuo Yan!" Mrs. Zuo asked sharply, "Is there such a thing?"

Zuo Yan said calmly: "There is such a thing. I went to Faguang Temple yesterday on the anniversary of my mother's death. It happened that Mingyue was there, and she wanted to go with her. I couldn't refuse, so I took her with me. "

"Did you hear me, Grandma! He admitted it himself! He promised you to his face, but he's a cunning behind his back! Do you still believe such a duplicity? Maybe he has something in mind!" Zuo Xing pointed Zuo Yan fell down.
