Chapter 286 Another Scam
Zhao Ya carefully put the ointment on Qiu Yi's hand into the porcelain jar, and praised Qiu Yi in a very good mood, "This young man is teachable."
Xiao Yining also gave her a thumbs up. She didn't expect Qiu Yi to be so smart. When she heard Zhao Ya say that only the queen had this medicine, she immediately stood behind Zhao Ya alertly, and then took the opportunity to sneak into the house to divide the medicine.
But time was too tight and she had no time to smooth out the marks.
But it's okay. Little Yining will carry the pot with half the medicine on her back firmly. After all, when the abbot gave it to her father, he didn't say that the medicine was so precious.
She used it a little roughly, so what.
Not long after, Qiu Yi's palms became clean. She ran to Xiao Yining happily, glanced at Pei Yi who had just come over, and carefully wiped her master's face, then wiped Zhao Ya's face a few times, and finally rubbed her own face vigorously.
She also exclaimed with great excitement, "Miss, now we are all using the Queen's ointment."
Pei Yi: ...
"This girl, she got carried away after just one compliment." Zhao Ya touched her face, shook her head happily and complained. Then she told the young master to keep watch, and walked out happily.
Pei Yi rubbed his brows speechlessly when he saw the excited trio. Then he said with a hint of self-blame, "It was all my fault for not thinking carefully. I didn't expect that the Jade Snow Cream was so important to you girls. Last night, the dean searched through boxes and cabinets for the medicine, and suddenly remembered that the medicine had been given to my cousin. This matter was also spread by some people with ulterior motives, and I forgot to remind you."
"But I didn't hear about this during the day!" Xiao Yining frowned, and then she realized that this matter might be kept secret from her Class B, otherwise Liu Zhenying, who was a gossipy person, would not have asked about it.
She didn't know that it would be very easy to replace the medicine!
Xiao Yining became depressed again. What a coincidence that the news came out today that Pu Fanmeng ruined other people's faces and took away the medicine.
However, it was indeed as Pu Fanmeng said, she was just the daughter of a scholar and could not have good things. Even if it was a good thing given by her uncle, she could not use it and could only hide it at home and let it gather dust.
If she lost the emperor's favor one day, she would be afraid that her things would be snatched away by someone who was eyeing her covetously the next moment.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yining looked at the little sister who was still smug, and said, "Sister Qiuyi, take one or two taels of silver to the side door and chat with Granny Zhou for a while. By the way, mention that my piano has been borrowed by my cousin."
Qiu Yi immediately obeyed the order, "Miss, I will go ask Aunt Zhao what she has to say, and then go to Aunt Zhou."
Pei Yi looked at the interaction between the master and servant, lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said, "Qing Jie'er, bring the piano from the room. Lu Tingfeng cheated us, so we should return it."
Little Yining turned to look at his fellow villager, and seeing his dark and unclear eyes, he had to remind him, "Uncle, the real piano was hidden by my father. He can tell that this piano is fake."
"It doesn't matter. No one will believe him." Pei Yi replied confidently. His tone was exactly the same as Chen Jiaoyi's during the day.
Little Yining blinked in surprise, "Uncle, you have also become a bad person."
"There's nothing wrong with taking revenge." Pei Yi replied indifferently.
He stood up and prepared to go back. He came here just now because he saw her being bullied. Unexpectedly, she got better on her own before he even started to comfort her.
Pei Yi looked down at the little kid and advised, "You guys value your appearance so much, then even if Second Miss Xie gets the plaster, she will not let Pu Fanmeng go. Then Sister Qing can just watch the show from the side, and don't get angry about what happened tonight."
Little Yining nodded obediently. Although she had never met Second Miss Xie, her family background was higher than Pu Fanmeng's, so it would be easy for her to take revenge on her.
But she could never have imagined that what happened today would become Park Fanmeng's death warrant.
At this moment, she was still standing at the entrance of the secret passage, talking to her fellow villager about her plan to send a message to her father.
Pei Yi glanced at Liang Shang 13 and frowned, "You said that my cousin ditched the shadow guards and ran away?"
Xiao Yining nodded depressedly, "So Sister Qing thought of sending the message through Sister Chen."
The news can be delayed, but it must be known. She must tell her father the secret of her grandmother's life experience, so that her father will not be unprepared when he returns to Beijing.
Pei Yi stroked his chin, thought for a moment, and said, "Your method of sending the letter is just a gamble of luck. My cousin may not be able to see it."
"But if the letter is special enough, Dad will definitely find a way to read it." Little Yining smiled slyly, "I plan to draw a few beautiful turtle pictures for Sister Chen. She will definitely mention my paintings when she goes to North City."
As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Yi couldn't help but think of the little black face that he couldn't bear to look at last night. He reluctantly suggested, "If it's just a turtle painting, I'll help Sister Qing paint it, and then I'll give it to Chen Jiaoyi. I have a special status, and I think she will mention my painting in Beicheng."
Reasonable
Little Yining nodded happily immediately and said sweetly, "Uncle, you are so kind to Sister Qing."
Then she took out a few pieces of paper and stuffed them into the fellow villager's hand. "I bought this from Ah San sister. It's 10 taels per piece. It's honest and is specially used for writing secret letters."
At this time, 13 on the beam also turned to look at Pei Yi. She smiled brightly and said, "Writing for me is 10 cents for a large character and cents for a small character."
Pei Yi's mouth twitched, and he stretched out his hand to refuse, "No need, I have 38."
13 failed to defeat Pei Yi again. She withdrew her smile and snorted coldly.
Pei Yi didn't stay any longer and left with the zither in his arms.
He is now the center of attention in Hanqiuyuan, and there are several people watching him at night.
If A-Da's medicine had not been prepared yet, there would probably be someone sitting in his house.
