Chapter 76 Jade is a token

After Ruan Mianmian returned home, she placed Lin Bingying in Yanlongyuan and told her servants that she was the piano teacher her grandfather had found for her.

Although Lin Bingying is too young, since she is the person invited by the old Marquis, it is natural that she is right. Everyone in Yanlongyuan treats her respectfully.

Ruan Mianmian privately told Zhou Yuning about Lin Bingying's life experience, only saying that she came to stay temporarily because of a change in her family and teach herself how to play the piano. Naturally, she ignored her experience of being sold to a place where fireworks were sold.

"Miss Lin is such a pitiful person." Zhou Yuning was kind-hearted, "Don't worry Mianmian, let her live in peace, my mother will treat her well."

"Mom is so kind." Ruan Mianmian found that the gloom in Zhou Yuning's eyes seemed to have been swept away. Maybe it was just because of her occasional bad mood, and she felt relieved.

"Mianmian, I'm going to see if the residence my servants have arranged for Miss Lin is appropriate, and by the way, I'm going to ask her if she needs anything else."

"I'm going to kiss you." Ruan Mianmian stood up and said, "I've brought him back. I'll tell my grandfather."

Mother and daughter stepped out of the threshold together and went their separate ways.

In the study room of Fu'an Hall, Ruan Yizheng reported to Ruan Geng: "My subordinates were hiding on the beams outside the door. They didn't dare to show their faces for fear of alarming them. I only heard their conversation, and Ruan Jiu took action. Later, I didn't know that the old man -

Why did the bustard change his mind?"

"It turns out that my granddaughter is very capable and can actually bring people out of Yuanyuan Building without spending half a penny." Ruan Geng stroked his beard and laughed.

Ruan turned around and glanced in the direction of the door: "Someone is coming, probably the princess, so I will leave first."

"Grandpa, can I come in?" Ruan Mianmian opened the door with both hands and looked inside as he spoke.

Ruan Geng coughed lightly: "What are you looking at? Why don't you come in now?"

"Okay, I'm coming in." Ruan Mianmian smiled and ran towards Ruan Geng, "Grandpa, I'm coming in."

Ruan Geng stepped forward and picked up Ruan Mianmian: "Mianmian, you have gained weight recently, so it is a little heavier to hold you."

"I eat well, and my grandmother makes snacks for me every day." Ruan Mianmian puffed up her cheeks and patted her belly.

Ruan Geng pinched Ruan Mianmian's cheek: "But I'm still a little thinner. I need to eat more."

"If I eat any more, I will become a little fat baby."

"A baby must be chubby to be cute."

Ruan Mianmian nodded and said obediently: "Okay."

Ruan Geng put Ruan Mianmian on the Taishi chair in the study room, and then sat on the chair next to her.

"Tell me about it, I heard that you went out early in the morning."

"Grandpa, I brought Lin Bingying back and placed her in the Yanlong Courtyard."

"Well, good." Ruan Geng stroked his beard and nodded slightly, "Did you encounter any trouble?"

Ruan Mianmian sat cross-legged on the side of the Grand Master's chair, turned around and put her hands on her chin to face Ruan Geng, frowning slightly.

Ruan Geng raised his eyebrows: "What? Let me guess, are you really in trouble?"

"No." Questions flashed in Ruan Mianmian's eyes, "It just went so smoothly. We even brought the person out without spending a penny."

"Oh?" Ruan Geng had already heard about it from Ruan, so he wasn't too surprised. "Let's hear what happened."

Ruan Mianmian told it in detail from beginning to end, Ruan Geng listened and thought at the same time.

"At first you thought the situation was getting dire and you were planning to rob people if necessary?"

"Yes, after I revealed my identity, Mother Li hesitated."

"You only took Ruan Jiu with you, and she believed you just by saying anything, without even having any doubts?"

"I think she was dubious at first." Ruan Mianmian said as he took out the jade pendant from his arms, "until she saw this."

Ruan Geng lowered his head and glanced: "The jade is of good quality and is a good thing. Where did it come from?"

"It was given as a gift."

"Your Highness the Crown Prince?"

"No, it's Master Ji, Grandpa Ji."

"Let me take a look." Ruan Geng quickly took the jade pendant from Ruan Mianmian's hand and looked at it carefully.

Ruan Mianmian saw that Ruan Geng was looking carefully. After what happened today, she felt that this jade pendant was probably not an ordinary object.

After a while, Ruan Geng finally finished reading. He looked at Ruan Mianmian with complicated eyes: "That old guy actually gave you this jade pendant. What is his plan?"

"Grandpa, Grandpa Ji said it was a meeting gift for me." Ruan Mianmian recalled the situation that day, "I didn't want to accept it, but Sister Jiu'er suggested that I could accept it. I think he must have a good relationship with you, so I didn't

I declined."

"The old guy is one of my few friends. It's no big deal for you to accept his meeting gift." Ruan Geng's eyes fell on the jade pendant in his hand, "I just didn't expect him to give this to you."

"Grandpa, does the jade pendant have any special meaning?"

"This jade pendant is the token of the Ji family. As far as I know, there are three pieces in total."

"Ah? I don't know." Ruan Mianmian looked at Ruan Geng, "Why did Grandpa Ji give such an important token to me? Grandpa, you'd better help me return it."

"You take it first, I'll ask the old guy before I talk." Ruan Geng came back to his senses, "Let's get back to business, no need to be suspicious, you can bring Miss Lin out only because of this token."

Ruan Mianmian played with the jade pendant in his hand with some doubts: "Really?"

"If I guess correctly, Yuanyuan Building is the property of the Ji family."

"Ah?" Ruan Mianmian was completely stunned upon hearing this.

Who is Ji Chang? The prince's tutor, the current master of His Royal Highness, has a first-class official position. Ruan Mianmian can't connect that smiling white-bearded old man with a place like Yuanyuan Tower.

Ruan Geng reached out and knocked Ruan Mianmian on the head: "What are you thinking about? Ji Chang is not the only one in the Ji family, but there are many people. He is an official in the court, and the person in charge of the Ji family's business is his younger brother Ji Quang."

"This jade pendant represents Master Ji," Ruan Mianmian quickly realized.

"That should be the case." Ruan Geng looked at Ruan Mianmian and smiled happily, "The old guy is discerning and knows that my granddaughter is extraordinary and is the first to flatter her."

Ruan Mianmian couldn't help but roll her eyes: "Is there anyone who brags like you?"

"What's the point? My granddaughter is good."

"By the way, Grandpa, Sister Lin has picked me up. I will start studying piano every afternoon tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll ask my grandmother to send you the piano later, and tell your mother to organize a piano room for you."

"Okay, thank you, grandpa." Ruan Mianmian had a sudden thought, "When will the piano playing competition in Prince Jing's Mansion be held?"

Ruan Geng frowned: "There's still about half a month left, so we won't go."

"Go, why not go." Ruan Mianmian objected, "I put all my effort into learning piano just to participate."

"Just because you can learn half the piano?" Ruan Geng thought Ruan Mianmian was joking, "If you don't go, Princess Jing has no good intentions. Besides, I don't think your grandmother will let you go."

Ruan Mianmian heard something in Ruan Geng's words. Could it be that Princess Jing had a grudge against her grandmother? It seemed that she would have to find a chance to ask her grandmother.
