Chapter 17
Nangong Yun ordered Sheng Xia to put the things into the warehouse, sat down on the rug by himself, poured a cup of tea, looked at the trembling and at a loss girl standing by the door, beckoned her to take a few steps closer, and asked, "What is your name?" What's your name?"

The girl lowered her head slightly, and replied politely: "Returning to Miss Fourth, the maidservant's humble name is Xiaocui."

Nangong Yun smiled, thinking that the name was really uninspired, and asked again: "Do you know why I keep you?"

Xiaocui shook her head, and answered honestly: "I don't know. Xiaoxin is a celebrity in front of the eldest lady. She is smart and understands the rules. I don't know how many times better than the slave."

Nangong Yun said indifferently: "There are too many smart people, is she still missing?"

Sheng Xia happened to come over and heard Nangong Yunman's cold words, not knowing what she was referring to, she stood aside with her head slightly lowered.

Nangong Yun looked at Sheng Xia who was pouted with an unhappy face, and said with a light smile: "I'm not talking about you, look, I've wronged you."

Sheng Xia endured it but still couldn't hold it back, and muttered: "Miss, why did you give those cloths to the second and third misses, I know you wanted to compensate them for tearing their clothes last time, but at least you kept the cloth." The next two horses, it's such a pity to give away such precious clothes."

Nangong Yun smiled lightly, and said to Xiao Cui: "Now, do you understand?"

Xiao Cui stared at her with innocent eyes, then shook her head again, her face full of doubts.

Nangong Yun jumped off the soft bed, walked up to Sheng Xia and gently pinched her nose, scolded with a smile: "It's just a few pieces of fabric that are worthless? Do you think I'm afraid of their revenge in the future? , take the initiative to show kindness, do you want to reconcile with them first?"

Sheng Xia looked up in surprise: "Isn't it?"

There was a cold light in Nangong Yun's eyes, "Of course not, not only not, but on the contrary. I have only one purpose for this, which is to tell them that since I have the courage to tear their clothes, I have the capital to compensate them. They The so-called priceless things are worthless in my eyes, tearing their clothes just dirty my hands."

She has always been a person who will take revenge, so how can it be possible for her to take the initiative to please the enemy?
"So, do you understand now why I kept you?"

Nangong Yun looked at Xiao Cui, and said seriously: "Shengxia is mine, so naturally she thinks about me in every way, she won't care about the eldest lady, second lady, and third lady, she will only focus on protecting my interests. And That Xiaoxin seems to be doing it for my own good, but in fact, every arrangement she makes is at the expense of my interests, all she considers is how to make things so that no one can find fault."

After hearing this, Sheng Xia was puzzled, "Isn't that bad?"

Nangong Yun sneered and said: "Okay? She is smart and understands the rules, but I value honesty and loyalty more than this. Those tact and sophistication, as long as you put your heart into it, are you afraid that you won't be able to learn it? There is a saying that you are right, You follow me, you just need to be obedient. Don't use those little cleverness on me, I don't like it. "

Xiaocui looked at Nangong Yun's sharp eyes in panic, and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

Seeing her nervousness, Nangong Yun felt that she was too serious, so she calmed down a little, and said: "Since I left you behind, you will be in my room from now on, as long as you are willing to serve me wholeheartedly, I will take care of you." I will never treat you badly."

When Xiao Cui heard this, she knelt down and bowed to Nangong Yun without hesitation, and said solemnly: "Xiao Cui pays homage to the master."

Nangong Yun was startled, and hurriedly signaled Sheng Xia to help her up, Sheng Xia smiled and said: "Xiao Cui, you don't have to be so nervous, the lady is very nice, you will know after a long time."

Xiao Cui nodded shyly, Nangong Yun held the tea and murmured: "Xiao Cui, Xiao Cui..."

This name is really too inelegant, Nangong Yun went to the desk, spread a layer of rice paper, lightly opened the pen and ink to write two large characters on the paper, Sheng Xia slowly read: "Late, autumn."

With a smile on the corner of Nangong Yun's mouth, he looked at Xiao Cui with soft eyes, and said, "From now on, this will be your new name."

Midsummer, late autumn.Nangong Yun laughed heartily, sister is really talented.

Sheng Xia looked at Nangong Yun who was sitting on the dressing table and went to stick a beard on his chin, dumbfounded: "Miss, what are you doing?"

Nangong Yun pursed his lips lightly, his eyes gleamed with shrewdness, and hummed, "Of course I'm planning to do something big. Have you prepared the money that I asked you to prepare?"

Sheng Xia reluctantly took out the purse that was tightly clutched, and asked with a bitter face: "This is 100 taels, can you really earn more by taking it out?"

Nangong Yun glared at her with hatred, "I'm such a little money fanatic. Have you never heard a saying called 'I can't bear to let my children be caught by wolves'? Let me tell you, money is always earned, never saved. .You don’t manage money, can money take care of you? Can’t you just sit at home and wait to eat?”

Shengxia was no stranger to Nangong Yun's strange remarks from time to time, so he had to hand over the purse cruelly, but suddenly felt a pain in his stomach, and couldn't help squatting down to cover his stomach, with a look of pain on his face , ran out hastily.

Nangong Yun was taken aback by Sheng Xia's sudden action. Seeing the door that Wan Qiu was entering, she asked, "What's wrong with her? I don't feel so bad about money that my stomach hurts, right?"

Wan Qiu was amused by Nangong Yun's funny words, and said: "Maybe it hurt your stomach by accident?"

He raised the clothes in his hand and said: "Miss has bought the clothes that the servants want, and the servants have bought them, can you see if they meet your requirements?"

Nangong Yun stood up, took the clothes in her hands, unfolded them, and smiled with satisfaction: "Okay, that's it."

In late autumn, seeing Nangong Yun in men's clothing was very heroic, and the beard on his face covered up his delicacy, and seeing that he was also asked to change into a servant's clothes, he was surprised and amused, and couldn't help it He asked, "Miss, where are we going?"

Nangong Yun raised the folding fan in his hand, and said happily, "Haha, go make money."

-

Sheng Xia had a temporary health condition and was forced to stay at home, only Wan Qiu followed Nangong Yun and slipped out through the back door of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Wanqiu followed Nangong Yun to a concierge with a curtain as the door.

"Ruoshui Pavilion."

Nangong Yun muttered to himself the three big characters on the wall, and couldn't help smiling: "It's quite elegant, it doesn't look like a casino no matter what."

But I snorted coldly in my heart, this is called being coquettish, ostentatious.

Wan Qiu's eyes widened suddenly, casino?What does the lady come to the casino for?Gambling... Gambling money?

Wan Qiu couldn't help looking at Nangong Yun's face. The more she looked at it, the more awkward it became. The young lady put a piece of skin on her face before she came, and she instantly became another person. The original "handsome" face became ugly. If you don't look carefully I really can't see it.

She had heard about the Yirongshu in Jianghu, but it was the first time she saw it today, so she was a little surprised.

This Fourth Miss is getting more and more mysterious.
