Chapter 22 Mr. Jiao(2/2)
"You little thief..."
Ye Jingtang knew this would be the reaction, so he caught the rosewood box steadily:
"This is public property used for handling cases. If it gets damaged, will you pay for it?"
Zheyunli didn't know the purpose of jade, so he asked like a curious baby:
"Master's wife, why are you angry? What is this thing for?... Oops~"
Luo Ning knocked him on the head.
Luo Ning was probably afraid that Zhe Yunli would be led astray, so she suppressed her shame and anger and explained softly:
"The items used by men in brothels are not clean, so don't ask any questions."
Zhe Yunli blinked his big eyes: "Such a big stick, wouldn't it be used to bully women? How to use it... Hiss -"
Luo Ning was like a simple mother who couldn't bear it. Facing her curious daughter, she could only teach her by tugging her ears:
"I told you not to ask, just don't ask. Is it normal for a girl to ask such questions?"
Feeling the pain, Zhe Yunli quickly raised his hand: "Okay, I won't ask. I also want to save Qiu Daxia and help as a consultant... So now let's go to the black market to sell the stolen goods?"
How could Luo Ning carry Yunli with such an unclean object:
"Since we have to lure a snake out of its hole, it's easy for three people to frighten the snake together. You can't help with your mediocre qinggong skills. Just go back and be patient!"
Zhe Yunli was obviously unhappy, but facing the stern master's wife, she couldn't say anything. She could only sigh softly and turn around and leave.
Ye Jingtang kept suppressing his laughter, but as soon as Zhe Yunli left, Luo Ning's face turned cold and she glared at him:
"You are shameless!"
Ye Jingtang's smile condensed and he said inexplicably:
"Why am I shameless? This is an object given by the government. I told you not to look at it, but you insisted on looking at it. After reading it, you scolded me for being shameless. It's just a jade-carved object. Is it necessary to have such a big reaction?"
As a mature woman, Luo Ning had heard about the use of such objects from some women taught by Pingtian, even if she had never experienced anything between men and women.
How could she not be annoyed when the Night Terror Hall handed a woman the object of self-destruction into her hand without saying hello in advance?
However, it was not all the fault of Night Terror Hall. Luo Ning thought about it and suppressed the shame in her heart, and said in a deep voice:
"How could the imperial court be so shameless to let you use this thing..."
"As long as it's useful. If I were a wingless owl, would you be angry if you learned that you had stolen something like this and sold it as stolen goods, and that you were the laughing stock of the world?"
Luo Ning thought about it and said no more, but Ye Jingtang handed the box over again and asked her to hold it.
"what you do?"
"Hold!"
Ye Jingtang thrust the rosewood box into the hands of Luo Nuxia, who was very disgusted:
"I am a man, the head of the family. Is it inappropriate for me to hold a box and follow you behind me?"
"..."
Luo Ning gritted her teeth secretly, and finally took the box and held it in her arms.
Ye Jingtang put Niao Niu on his shoulders and led the horse out of the alley:
"We disguise our identities and act like burglars traveling together. From now on, I will call you Ning'er, and you will call me..."
Luo Ning followed behind and said coldly:
"I call you 'winged owl'."
"What a joke."
Ye Jingtang turned his head and looked at Luo Nuxia dressed as his daughter-in-law:
"Why don't you call me husband? It's less likely for a young couple to arouse suspicion when they travel together."
Luo Ning would definitely not be happy, but apart from this title, there was nothing else that could explain why a man and a woman alone were walking together in the world. She thought for a while and said:
"Ms. sir, my husband is too serious, and people in the world don't usually call you that. Um... shall I call you Yelang?"
Yelang?
Ye Jingtang knew the allusion of "Ye Lang is arrogant", so he naturally shook his head:
"It doesn't sound good."
"That gentleman?"
"grumble?"
Bird tilted his head and looked around, probably wondering - where is the praying mantis?
Ye Jingtang suddenly felt that his adoptive father's naming skills were a bit unreliable. How should his daughter-in-law call him in the future?
After thinking about it for a while, Ye Jingtang remembered the name "Sanniang" and simply said:
"Call me Shiro, um... surname is Huang, Huang Silang."
"Huang Silang..."
