Chapter 172 Young Master Bai Is Angry
Ye Ningyu didn't want to attract too much attention, so he restrained himself a lot. Facts have proved that Ye Ningyu's concerns were very right. Soon after the ranking was released, all the major restaurants and tea shops in most of the capital that had set up a "Bet on the No. 1 Scholar" began to make plans.
My own income. But the outcome of this year’s “Betting No. 1 Prize”
It was much more strange than in previous years. In most restaurants and teahouses, only one person won the bet, but this person did not leave his name. In other words, this year's new top scholar Xu Mingzhou, only one person is optimistic about him. And there are several people who have high hopes for him.
None of the sons from aristocratic families or Jiangnan talents were on the list.
. This is definitely the most miserable bet in history. However, this is the characterization of the bettors. For the restaurant, this time it is a sure win. For example, in Hemingxuan, no one bet on Xu Mingzhou, so these bets
The money invested will naturally belong to the restaurant. After some calculation,
Come on, it turned out to be a full 20,000 taels. There were other restaurants and tea shops, some more, some less, but they were all profitable. The only exception was Xinglong Restaurant. As night fell, there was a man wearing a mask.
The man came to collect the banknote with a sign, and the shopkeeper of Xinglong Restaurant personally handed over the eight thousand taels.
He handed it over and felt a sting in his heart. Just after the masked man left, the shopkeeper also ordered people to follow him to investigate and see who was such a monster. He became the only person in the metropolis who won the bet. But the person sent out
The man came back and said that he had lost him. After returning to Ye Mansion, Xiao Weiwei took off his clothes.
Mask, handed the money to Qinglian's hand, and then the scene just happened. Ye Ningyu looked at the pile of silver notes in the box, but she didn't feel the joy of unexpected wealth. Because, the money from Xinglong Restaurant was also hers
Her own money. The reason why she placed bets at Xinglong Restaurant was that in addition to making money, she also
It was a test. As the only winner in the capital, Xinglong Restaurant would not fail to investigate. Ye Ningyu wanted to see how strong Xinglong Restaurant was. Seeing that Xiao Wei came back safely with the money and no one was following him, Ye Ningyu
Ning Yu also had an idea in her mind. Qinglian and the two of them were going to
After loading the tickets and putting them in the cabinet, Ye Ningyu turned her head and saw the small figure on the top of the cabinet. Ye Ningyu pursed her lips and took the small figure over. Then, she did not tell Qinglian
, he started rummaging in the house again. "What are you looking for, girl? Come here, slave."
"No need, you can just be busy."
Ye Ningyu was still searching by herself. She didn't look for long, and she quickly dug out the things one by one. There was a small portrait, a long box, a calligraphy scroll, and a piece of clothing...
Looking at several things, Ye Ningyu suddenly realized that she actually had something like this here.
There are so many things he gave. It shouldn't be, why did she accept these in the first place? They obviously have no relationship at all, but receiving these things seems unclear and has no name. I also think of what Liu Yiping said today about being bright and dark and pure.
Cutting off the robe and cutting off the sleeves made me feel a little irritated. Thinking like this
As she spoke, the look on Ye Ningyu's face became a little more serious. "Tomorrow you will send these things to the west of the city..." Ye Ningyu wanted to send them to the simple house in the west of the city where Bai Chengzhi lived, but she didn't know if he still had it now.
Living there, after all, he is a master of the Imperial College and the owner of a bookstore.
, maybe he had changed his residence to a big house long ago. Thinking of this, Ye Ningyu shook his head again. He was already so familiar with his younger brothers and sisters, and they had all been to the house, but he didn't know much about his
I don’t know where I live yet. “It’s better to take it to Wenyuan Bookstore.”
After saying that, Ye Ningyu's eyes fell on one of the long and exquisite small boxes. Thinking of the importance of the things in the box, Ye Ningyu's expression couldn't help but change a little. Bai Chengzhi once said that it was something he brought with him since he was a child.
A large jade pendant with his real name on it. Ye Ningyu naturally knew that this object was extraordinary and must not fall into the hands of others. Ye Ningyu immediately changed his mind, "That's it, no need."
Qinglian and Qinglian looked at the eldest girl who kept changing her mind. They looked at each other and didn't know what to say. "Wrap these up."
Ye Ningyu ordered again. The two of them hurriedly found the bundles and wrapped them tightly. Ye Ningyu checked up and down to make sure that the things would not fall out, then took the bundles and walked out. "Elder girl
Where are you going? Wait, slave."
Qinglian and Luzhu hurriedly followed. "No, I won't leave the house. I'll be back in a moment."
After saying that, Ye Ningyu quickened her pace. Soon, Ye Anshu's door was knocked open by Ye Ningyu. Ye Anshu, who was about to fall asleep, looked at Ye Ningyu standing at the door of his bedroom with a baggage, and couldn't help but be startled. "Long."
Sister, you... want to run away from home?"
Ye Ningyu rolled her eyes and did not enter the room. She handed the bundle to Ye Anshu's hand with a strange tone. "Bring this to the Imperial College tomorrow and hand it over to Mr. Bai personally."
Ah? Ye Anshu's eyes widened and he looked at his eldest sister in disbelief. What did the eldest sister give to the master? What could she have to give to the master? Ye Anshu was so curious that he couldn't help but pinch the things in the bag. Huh?
Why is it so soft, like cloth? Huh? There seems to be a box. Ye Anshu couldn't guess it for a moment, and he chuckled, "What is this?"
Ye Ningyu looked serious. "Don't look at it."
Ye Anshu had never seen his eldest sister look so serious. He paused decisively while groping for the baggage with his hands, and there was a hint of disappointment in his tone. "Oh..." After returning to the house, Ye Anshu lost his sleep. He stared at the baggage for a long time, but
never
He dared to open it. He put his hand on the baggage and took it back. He put it on again and took it back again. He repeated this four or five times. With a snap, his left hand hit the back of his right hand hard. "I agreed."
Eldest sister, please don’t watch and go to sleep!”
The next day, Bai Chengzhi was full of doubts when he received the baggage handed over by Ye Anshu. He also heard that it was brought to him by Ye Ningyu and asked to hand it over to him. A bad premonition suddenly hit him.
Bai Chengzhi did not open it on the spot, but subconsciously touched the baggage from the outside, and then walked away with the baggage covered with black lines on his face. Chengxi
In a house, Bai Chengzhi looked at a few boxes and the clothes. He pressed his lips tightly and squinted his eyes slightly. Wu Sheng, who was hanging his legs leisurely on the beam, suddenly felt murderous intent. Yes,
It was murderous intent. With a bang, Wu Sheng jumped down from the beam and appeared in front of Bai Chengzhi. "Master, who do you want your subordinates to get rid of?"
Bai Chengzhi's eyes became even colder, and he looked at Wu Sheng. "I'll count to three. If you don't disappear, you have to get rid of yourself first."
Wu Sheng was stunned for a moment, then turned pale. "Okay!"
With a whoosh, Bai Chengzhi was the only one left in the room again. He exhaled a long breath. Sure enough, she had sent back all the things that she had finally sent out, and she didn't even keep any of them! Anyway, you have that piece of jade pendant.
You have to stay! But... he was also sent back. Bai Chengzhi's heart was broken. That was not a jade pendant, that was his heart.
Now...his eyes fell on the white dress again. Bai Chengzhi suddenly remembered that it seemed that Ye Ningyu had given the dress to one of her cousins. Why did she ask for it back now in order to return it? When he thought of it,
Ye Ningyu had not worn this dress, but was put on by someone else. Bai Chengzhi frowned. "Come back!"
