Chapter 296 Xu Jingxi asks for help

Xie Mingan's expression changed. He thought of something for a moment, then quickly left Dali Temple and hurried home.

 He went straight to the private treasury in his yard and ordered his entourage to open the treasury door.

“Let Uncle Pang take the gift list that was received that day, come over and check them one by one, and find out for me which ones are from the Chen family.”

 When the boys saw Xie Ming'an's face was gloomy and cold, they didn't dare to say anything.

After a while, Uncle Pang, the housekeeper, hurried over with a booklet in his hand.

 After he led others to check them one by one, he took out a long brocade box with an auspicious lotus pattern.

“This is a gift from the Chen family.”

Xie Mingan opened the box and saw that the colorful gemstone bracelet was inside.

 His complexion suddenly darkened.

If he remembered correctly, that day in the palace, he saw Chen Wanru, the second young lady of the Chen family, talking to Shen Ningning with this bracelet.

So, Shen Ningning dared to accept such a bribe for him?

Do you think that if you mix it in the meeting gifts from other aristocratic families, you won't be discovered by him?

This kid is so courageous!

 Xie Mingan's breath dropped to freezing point.

 He threw the box heavily on the ground with a wave of his hand, and walked out with a cold expression.

Uncle Pang didn't know what happened, so he could only pick up the bracelet, take it out separately and put it away first.

 Two days passed.

Shen Ningning is in Xiangyun Village, helping Grandma Qin decorate the village house.

Grandma Qin introduced Dong A Niu to two good girls from Xitai Village. One was slender and the other was round and plump.

Dong A Niu fell in love with the thin woman, but the other party didn't take a fancy to him.

 The round-faced woman is willing to have more contact with Dong A Niu.

Who would have thought that Dong A Niu would dislike her for not being good-looking enough.

In just a few days, Dong A Niu went back and reconciled with Lifen as before.

Every time I come back to Grandma Qin, she always begs for mercy and says good things, and then takes some items given by Grandma Qin to please Lifen and her family.

 When talking about Dong A Niu, Grandma Qin always shook her head and sighed: "A Niu is useless, pity my sister."

“Let them get married as soon as possible and let them leave as soon as possible, so that they won’t be under my nose. I can’t stand it and I can’t control it.”

Shen Ningning was very curious: "Grandma, will you have a baby right after you get married?"

She blinked her big, crystal clear eyes, and her fair little face was full of inquiry.

 The little guy has only seen a few marriages in his life.

 In the past, when there was a wedding in the village, the elders of that family would give their children lots of loquat candies to make them feel happy.

Shen Ningning could only stand in the distance with envy.

I saw the bride wearing a red hijab entering the home surrounded by a crowd of people.

 Then, a group of children will run around the house several times holding wedding candies.

   shouted: "When my wife comes, I will be blessed. I will give birth to a son early, and I will have two in three years."

 For the ignorant Shen Ningning, she probably understood that getting married means having a baby.

 She must have come out of her mother's womb in this way.

Grandma Qin took the little guy's hand and said lovingly: "Two people who love each other will naturally have children after marriage."

Shen Ningning had no feelings for Dong A Niu, but after hearing these words, she immediately cheered up.

“Then I have to help arrange cousin A Niu’s marriage.”

 “I have to let his little baby have a loving home when he is born.”

 Don’t be like her, you have never seen what your parents look like with your own eyes.

Shen Ningning became busy, stepping on a stool and helping hang red lanterns with her own hands.

Looking at her petite figure, Grandma Qin’s eyes showed distress.

This child and her parents' affairs have become a worry for her.

While Shen Ningning was busy, someone called out in a hoarse voice: "Is this Shen Ningning's house? I'm looking for Shen Ningning."

 The Black Wolf King at the door was lying on his stomach, but suddenly he raised his ears and looked towards the entrance of the small courtyard with his yellow-eyed wolf eyes.

Shen Ningning went to open the door and took a look.

Xu Jingxi was wearing a tattered jacket with lint leaking out, and there was some black dust on his handsome white cheeks. He is always as cool as bamboo. Even if he is poor, his clothes will not be stained with dust.

 Rarely have I been so embarrassed.

Shen Ningning couldn't help but be surprised: "Xu Jingxi, what's wrong with you?"

Xu Jingxi looked at her, his usually calm expression now cracked, and his bloodshot eyes were full of sincerity.

 “Shen Ningning, please help me once, my grandfather is lost!”

 He said, handing over a letter.

Shen Ningning took it and saw that the old man couldn't write, so he scribbled out what he meant.

 In the painting, there is only one tree and a circle of rope for hanging!

 “Your grandpa wants to commit suicide?” The little guy was shocked.

Xu Jingxi has been searching all night, and now her voice is extremely hoarse.

“The heavy snow collapsed our house. Grandpa didn’t want to trouble me anymore, so he left a final letter. I asked people in the same village and they saw him going up to the mountains.”

"Grandpa, he probably wants to spend the rest of his life in the mountains. I searched for him all night, but I don't know where he went, so I can only come to you for help."

Shen Ningning immediately handed the letter back, turned around and shouted: "Wolf Lang, let's go and find someone!"

Grandma Qin chased her out: "Ning Ning, it's freezing outside, so be careful."

"I know, grandma!" the little guy said, turning over and riding on the back of the Black Wolf King.

 She put her little hand to her lips and blew a clear whistle.

 After a while, Xu Jingxi saw a pack of wolves galloping from the mountain.

The Black Wolf King raised his neck and howled, giving orders.

Lang San immediately ran to Xu Jingxi's side and lay down.

Shen Ningning said: "You ride on Lang San, and we go into the mountain to find someone."

Xu Jingxi glanced at Lang San, feeling really embarrassed.

 But in order to find grandpa, he didn’t care about that much at this time.

"I'm sorry." He bowed to the wolf three times before climbing onto its back.

Wolf San suddenly rushed forward, Xu Jingxi felt as if he was sitting in the wind, and the surrounding scenery was retreating rapidly.

 He pointed the way in front, and the Black Wolf King followed behind with his pack of wolves.

 A group of wolves, two people, galloping through the white snow forest, leaving black footprints one after another.

 The mountains are dark and cold, and the snow is dull.

I searched for a long time and went deep into the mountains, but I didn't find anyone.

Shen Ningning immediately stopped, her little face turned pink by the wind.

She said seriously: "We can't search like this. It's just wasting time and we have to split up."

After finishing speaking, she patted the Black Wolf King's ears with her small hand.

 The Black Wolf King immediately gave orders to the wolves.

Xu Jingxi saw that the wolves were divided into four columns in an orderly manner. One by one, they came to him and smelled the final letter left by his grandfather, and then ran towards the southeast, northwest and northwest.

 After that, Shen Ningning stopped where she was.

She took off the water bag from her waist and handed it to Xu Jingxi: "Drink a little, your voice will become hoarse."

Xu Jingxi's lips were dry and flaky, but she was embarrassed to accept Shen Ningning's kindness anymore.

 Originally, he helped him save his grandfather, but he had nothing to repay.

He could only nod slightly: "Thank you, but no need. Why don't we just follow the wolves?"

 Seeing that he didn't drink, Shen Ningning opened it and took a sip.

 The warm spiritual spring water falls down the throat and into the stomach, bringing a sense of comfort.

"Don't leave. The wolves have found them and will give us a signal. We just need to wait."

As she said, within half a moment, wolves howled one after another from the south.

 There was a thin spy wolf who ran back first, bowing his head and howling at the Black Wolf King.

The Black Wolf King immediately straightened up and shook off the snow foam on his body.

Shen Ningning pointed to the south: "Over there, let's go quickly!"
