Xiao Yi carefully ate up the blubber on Nan Baoyi's lips bit by bit.

The winter sun is warm today.

Sunshine shines on the Arhat couch through the window with ruyi pattern, the dust dances in the light and shadow, and the red plums in the vase by the window bloom freely.

Xiao Yi sat cross-legged contentedly, touched the corner of his lips in the light and shadow, and couldn't help lowering his head and chuckling.

After laughing, he looked at Nan Baoyi.

Her mouth was so red that even he could tell it was definitely not the same color as before going to bed.

He was afraid that Nan Baoyi would find something, so he opened the red sandalwood brocade box, picked out the red lips, imitated her appearance when she was dressing, and picked some with his thumb.

He gently wiped Nan Baoyi's lips.

But his technique was very unskilled, and he wiped it round and round, not only could it not be evenly applied, but a lot of it was applied to the outside of the lips.

When he finished wiping, Nan Baoyi's lips were covered in blood, as if he had just eaten a child.

Xiao Yi fell into deep thought.

For a long time, he pretended nothing happened, and silently put the lipstick back into the wooden box.

When Nan Baoyi woke up, it was already an hour later.

She stretched comfortably, "It's so comfortable to catch up on sleep! Second brother, shouldn't we go to Songheyuan for dinner?"

As he spoke, he reached out to touch the red sandalwood box.

Xiao Yi was marking the map of Shu County, when he caught a glimpse of her movement, he immediately pressed her hand, "What are you going to do?"

"Fix up your makeup."

Against his will, Xiao Yi said, "Jiaojiao is very beautiful, there is no need to touch up makeup."

"Really?" Nan Baoyi covered her cheeks, her eyes sparkling, "No wonder everyone praises Caiyunjian's rouge and gouache as the best, I've been using this rouge for an hour, and it hasn't faded, it's really worthy of its price! Second brother, let's go to Songheyuan for lunch now!"

Xiao Yi hesitated for a moment, then followed.

When passing through the veranda, just in time, a little maid with an unfamiliar face came to meet her.

The little maid stared at Nan Baoyi's bloody red lips, and couldn't help being stunned.

Maybe it's the new popular lip makeup for ladies, she doesn't understand it very well,

Not very appreciative either.

She bowed and said respectfully: "Boss Nan, this servant is from Yulouchun, the master sent this servant to give you a message."

"What message?"

Nan Baoyi was curious.

The little servant girl replied: "Master said, Young Master Nanjing of your mansion paid for murder in an attempt to kill you. Master refused on the grounds that his offer was not enough."

Nan Baoyi pondered: "As far as I know, the price of Yulouchun's assassination transaction is five thousand taels of silver. Where did he get the silver?"

"I don't know." The little servant girl answered truthfully, "However, news came from the market that your father, Nan Guang, had sent someone to pawn a sable fur cloak. Did Mr. Jing's money come from here?"

Nan Baoyi leaned against the vermilion lacquer railing, staring at the pond.

She once asked her eldest brother how much money he gave her father after returning home.

The eldest brother said it was five thousand taels.

Five thousand taels of snow-patterned silver is not enough for her father to toss about, and he even wants to use it as clothes!

He obviously likes that cloak very much, unless it is absolutely necessary, he will never give it away easily, it is still the kind of death that cannot be redeemed!

I'm afraid it's Nan Jing who is trying to ask him for money.

In other words, her father probably subsidized Nanjing eight thousand taels of silver secretly.

She wondered why her father didn't have any red envelopes of a tael of silver for Chinese New Year this year, so it was all used to subsidize his good son!

Xiao Yi played with pressing Shengqian, "Are you angry?"

"Of course I'm angry, so angry that my heart hurts."

"Brother rubbing for you?"

Nan Baoyi gave him a displeased look.

Xiao Yi smiled: "It's just a joke."

Nan Baoyi was sad.

Daddy is very kind to Nan Jing, for his sake, he pawned the only good clothes he had.

But how did Nan Jing repay him?

He used the pawned money to hire murderers to murder his youngest daughter...

In the past and present, Nanjing is nothing!

In his previous life, he took the money his father had saved for ten years to go to Beijing to rush for the exam, became a Jinshi in high school, and became a editor of the Imperial Academy.

Dad always praised his son for his promise, but later he was bullied by the Liu family and kicked out of the house, but Nan Jing ignored him and let him fend for himself...

Everyone in Jinguan City laughed at Daddy. When they saw him, they asked, where is your promising son?

Nan Baoyi couldn't figure it out, everyone was a scholar, how could Nan Jing be so disgusted? !

The girl tightly clenched her fists, Danfeng's eyes gleamed fiercely.

She won't make things easier for Nan Jing!

She said in a deep voice, "This matter can't just be left alone..."

She rewarded the little girl with ten taels of silver, "Go back and tell your master to ask her to invite Nan Jing to Yulouchun, and accept his commission at the price of eight thousand taels of silver."

No matter what, let's get back the eight thousand taels of silver first.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, news came from Yulouchun.

Han Yanliang has settled down Nanjing, and got all the eight thousand taels of silver notes back.

Han Yanliang is a plucking goose, so he took a thousand taels for his hard work.

Nan Baoyi put the remaining 7,000 taels into his pocket and did not return it to Nan Guang.

On the third day of the first lunar month, relatives come and go, which is very lively.

Nan Baoyi was playing mahjong with a group of elderly people in Songheyuan.

Nanguang is also there.

He had no money to gamble, so he had to stand behind his mother and enjoy his eyesight.

When I was excited, a maid came in a hurry.

Nan Baoyi knew that she was the maid serving Nan Jing.

She subconsciously pricked up her little ears.

The maid said in a low voice: "Third Master, Mr. Nanjing invited people to a banquet at Jinyu Mantang, and said that he didn't have enough money. Please go over and give the money."

Nan Baoyi raised his eyebrows.

Jinyu Mantang is the most famous restaurant in Jinguan City, only rich businessmen and dignitaries can afford it, and the minimum cost of a banquet is several hundred taels of silver.

Nan Jing doesn't have much skill, but he knows how to choose a place for dinner.

Nan Guang was in a dilemma: "Didn't I give him money a while ago?"

The maid smiled: "Perhaps it was a gift for the master, and I gave it away."

Nanguang was even more embarrassed.

He was nervous and couldn't afford any more money...

Just as he was hesitating whether to ask someone to borrow it, Nan Baoyi said empathetically, "Father, I'll go and pay my brother."

"You?" Nan Guang was surprised.

He remembered that the relationship between Jiaojiao and Jing'er was very bad.

Nan Baoyi smiled cutely: "You often teach us that brothers and sisters should be united and friendly. Now that my brother is in trouble, of course I have to help. Don't worry, I have received a lot of lucky money and can help my brother pay the bills."

Seeing that she was serious, Nan Guang happily agreed.

His children are harmonious, it really is because he manages the family well!

He Ye followed Nan Baoyi out of Songhe Courtyard, very puzzled: "Miss, why should we help Nanjing pay the bill? We don't owe him anything!"

"Help him pay the bill?" Nan Baoyi smiled, "He thinks beautifully! Let's go to Jinyumantang to watch the excitement!"

The hall is full of gold and jade, elegant seats.

Because Yu Louchun took over the assassination job, Nan Jing was in a good mood, and specially invited a dozen of his classmates to come here for a drink.

Now after drinking for three rounds, it is bustling.

A classmate patted him on the shoulder and praised: "If you want to judge your fate, our brother Nan is better. Now that you live in Nanfu, you have truly become a rich man. That is the Nan family, the richest man in Shu County! The richest man The grandson of my grandson, it’s priceless to think about!”

"Yes, this house is full of gold and jade. I used to only dare to look outside. How dare I come in to eat, drink and have fun? Today is all thanks to Brother Nan!"

Others joined in.

Nan Jing listened to their praise reservedly, but glanced out of the window from time to time.

He sent someone back to the house to get the money early in the morning, why didn't his father send someone to bring the money?

Didn't he run very fast in the past?

If you don't come again, wait for the checkout, what will he pay?
