006 Are you busy?

The carriage of Prince Ning's Mansion stopped in front of the gate of Duke Dingguo's Mansion.

Before Mo Shaohua got out of the car, the concierge boy hurriedly came over to greet him. He nodded respectfully and stood beside the carriage, waiting for Mo Shaohua to get off.

After the carriage stopped, the driver quickly jumped out of the carriage, put the horse stool in place, and opened the door for Mo Shaohua.

Mo Shaohua closed the Wuyan Mountain Jade Bone Fan in his hand, stood up and quickly walked out of the carriage.

When the porter saw him coming down, he hurriedly saluted, "I have met His Highness Prince Ning. Are you here today to see my heir apparent? Can you please let me know?"

Mo Shaohua came to see Jiang Qianye every three to five days, and the concierge of the Duke's Mansion was already used to it.

Whenever he comes, he must be looking for the prince, and he never needs to inform him. The concierge only asks respectfully.

"No need."

Mo Shaohua waved the jade bone fan in his hand, walked in with Xingchen from the corner door of the Duke's Mansion, and went straight to Beiyuan where Jiang Qianye lived.

A few days ago, Jiang Qianye was unable to leave his house all day long, and he was so angry that Duke Ding ordered him to be grounded for five days.

This is already the fifth day, and Mo Shaohua hasn't seen him for five days.

As soon as I stepped into Beiyuan, I heard the sound of the clear breeze and bright moon coming from the courtyard, "Hey, His Highness Prince Ning finally remembered me."

Under a prosperous ginkgo tree in the courtyard, a man in moonlight clothes lay lazily on the imperial concubine's couch, his hair dripping with ink. There was a square table in front of the imperial concubine's couch, filled with rare fruits and snacks.

The man was reading a book in his hand. When he heard Mo Shaohua's footsteps, he slowly put down the book, revealing his clear and handsome face.

Mo Shaohua ignored him, walked to his side, squeezed him in, and sat down directly.

Jiang Qianye was too lazy to sit up, resting his arms on his arms and asked, "Isn't this guy here to come to me to go out for a drink? I can't go out today, and I won't be able to leave until tomorrow."

"no."

Mo Shaohua raised his hand and motioned for all the servants in the courtyard to leave.

Seeing that Mo Shaohua and others had retreated, Jiang Qianye sat up and his expression became serious, "What's wrong with you?"

Mo Shaohua glanced sideways at his neck, and his jade-white fingers hooked the jade cicada hanging around his neck.

"Take it off and let me take a look."

"Are you attracted to this? I can't give this to you, but Yue'er also has it. If you marry her, what she has will be yours."

As Jiang Qianye said this, he took off the jade cicada from his neck and put it into Mo Shaohua's sharp-knuckled hand.

Mo Shaohua talked to him, rubbed the jade with his fingertips, then picked it up and looked at it carefully in the sun.

When I saw the word "ye" on the reverse side, I asked, "Do you have a government office in your generation?"

"That's not true. It's only true for Yue'er and I, who are eldest sons. I heard from my mother that I was weak when I was born, so this piece of jade was opened by a master, saying that it can nourish people. I just carved these two pieces of jade.

Cicada, as for why it was carved into a jade cicada, I don’t know.”

The sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting mottled light and shadow on Mo Shaohua's handsome face. Jiang Qianye couldn't really see his expression, and could only see him staring at Yu Chan in a daze.

"What's wrong?"

"It's okay, I'll take it back and play with it for two days."

Mo Shaohua stood up, raised his hand to Jiang Qianye, went out and took Xingchen with him.

"Don't lose it to me."

Jiang Qianye shouted to Mo Shaohua: "If you don't go see Yue'er, she won't be happy when she comes back today."

Mo Shaohua's figure had disappeared from his sight, but a clear voice came into the courtyard, "Wait for me to tell you, he has been sent out of the house."

As he spoke, he frowned slightly.

Jiang Wanyue forcibly broke off her engagement with King Yi (the third prince), and those people would not let them be together like this.

In the carriage.

Mo Shaohua took out two pieces of jade cicada, put them together and compared them, and frowned slowly.

These two pieces of jade are exactly the same in terms of texture, color, and feel. Even the carving process seems to have been made by the same person.

Jiang Qianye said that the jade was carved into two pieces, but Bai Lianran's and Jiang Qianye's were obviously from the same jade.

Thinking of how similar Bai Linran and Jiang Wanyue looked, Mo Shaohua had some ideas in his mind, but they still needed to be verified.

When I was young, by the moat, that girl...

Who is it?



After getting what she wanted, Bai Ranran went back to her residence and simply packed up and bowed, changed out of her unseemly clothes, went to the accountant's office to get the banknote, and left the palace happily.

After getting the money, she felt much more at ease.

Although she is not a rich woman now, she and Jiang can still have enough food and clothing for the time being.

Because she had nowhere to go when she first arrived, and she learned from the original owner’s memory that the original owner had been worried about his mother, she took the banknote and baggage and went to the home in her memory.

The sundial, dressed in black, has been following Bai Lanran.

He didn't speak during the whole journey, and it wasn't until she reached the door of her house that he said, "Moving, in the south of the city."

Bai Ranran was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at the tall man who cherished his words like gold, "When and why did you move?"

Sundial glanced at her lightly, then looked away expressionlessly, "Four years ago, the prince ordered."

Mo Shaohua's mansion is in the city, and it takes half an hour to walk to the south of the city.

Bai Lunran went to buy the silver needles necessary for medical practice and some food.

Just when her legs were about to break, she followed the sundial to the door of her house.

She looked at the house in front of her with the high gate and balcony, and looked at the sundial in confusion, "Are you sure, this is my house?"

Sundial ignored her, stepped forward, grabbed the knocker, and knocked on the door.

After knocking on the door, he turned around and left, leaving Bai Ranran standing alone outside the door.

The person who opened the door was an old man with gray hair and beard. He squinted his eyes and looked at Bai Liran.

"Who are you looking for?"

Bai Ranran looked at the old man with a frown, feeling that he looked familiar, and suddenly remembered that this old man existed in the memory of the original owner.

The old man is a storyteller at Qingfeng Teahouse, known as Wu Xiucai. He is already in his sixtieth year, and his energy level is okay, but his eyesight is not that good.

He had been friends with the original owner's father for many years. After the original owner's father passed away, he helped the original owner and the Jiang family a lot.

The old man also recognized Bai Lanran at this moment, and patted his thigh in surprise, "Girl Ran, you haven't been back for several years. Your mother misses you so much, come in quickly."

Bai Liran was dragged in by the old man.

Seeing Bai Lunran enter the house, the sundial standing in the distance glanced into the darkness.

He glanced at Yueying, winked at a sneaky figure not far away, and then turned and left.

The old man led Bai Linran through the front yard, passed through an arched door, and walked to the door of a small courtyard in the middle yard.

"Your mother has been feeling unwell these past few days and is resting inside. She said she was tired, but I think she was thinking of you."

"Excuse me, Uncle Wu."

Bai Lunran said politely to Uncle Wu and walked into the small courtyard carrying her baggage.

As soon as she entered the yard, she saw a woman cooking medicine under the osmanthus tree in the yard.

Bai Liran recognized her. This woman was Aunt Zhang, the original owner's former neighbor. The two of them often showed off their handkerchiefs and went to the embroidery shop to sell them together.

I usually get along well with this aunt, but she is a little arrogant. When she sees others doing well, she likes to make fun of her with a few sarcasm.

She is here probably because Jiang was ill and she came to help take care of him.

Hearing the footsteps, the lady raised her head and looked over, "The medicine is so quick... Ran Yatou!"

The woman was a little surprised, her eyes flickered for a moment, but for just a moment, it turned into surprise again.

She quickly stood up, walked to Bai Lanran, and shouted into the room: "Sister Jiang, Ran Yatou is back."

As soon as she finished speaking, a woman in her forties in the room rushed to the door frame anxiously.

The woman's face was pale and her eyes were red. Looking at Bai Ranran, her tears fell suddenly, "My mother's child."

As soon as she finished speaking, she fainted.

Bai Ranran's expression changed, and she ran over quickly, catching Jiang's shaky body before she fell to the ground.

Aunt Zhang frowned and hurriedly came over to help. Together with Bai Yiran, she helped Mr. Jiang into the bed in the room.
