"Master, is the pattern printed and dyed?"
After Xiao Yuwan looked at it carefully, she looked at her daughter seriously and warned: "Qier, I don't want to wear those dresses for now. The two dresses my mother gave me are too special."
Xuanyuan Moqi naturally knew what was special about that dress, and also knew what her mother was worried about. She nodded obediently and said, "Yeah, my daughter is Minghong."
"Just bright red. Put away the clothes and beads first."
"Uh-huh."
After returning from the east, Xiao Yuwan played with Luban Lock with Xuanyuan Moqi...
Beijing.
The Ninth Prince's Mansion.
"Mu Xi, has the prince come back?"
"Wei Zeng. If something happens to you, sir, you can tell Mu Xi, and Mu Xi will take care of it for you."
Ming Xin shook her head and said, "It's okay. Mu Xi, it's the New Year's Eve, why is the house so deserted?"
Hearing this, Mu Xi was slightly startled. He had asked that question before, but the answer he got was that he shouldn't have asked it.
When Mr. Mingmingxin asked, his mind changed and he replied: "I don't know if he has been like this since he entered the mansion."
"Yeah. It's okay."
Seeing that nothing happened to Ming Xin, Mu Xi then took a leap and hid in the darkness.
Mingxin, on the other hand, stood in the yard for a while, then returned to the house, took five copper coins and started to stare...
Nameless Village.
Guo Xiaoxiao had just fallen asleep when he heard Ziyu's voice.
"Miss, someone is coming from Mr. Li's house. I need to see you for something."
Guo Xiaoxiao asked with half-closed eyes: "Master Li?"
"No, Mr. Li, the magistrate of Qingyang Prefecture, calls himself Li Quan, and says he is the housekeeper of Mr. Li's house."
Hearing "Li Quan", Guo Xiaoxiao knew who was coming, so he said, "Huh? Uncle Li is here? Please leave Uncle Li in the hall, he is coming soon."
After a while, Guo Xiaoxiao appeared in the main room.
"Ms. Cousin, happy new year."
"Uncle Li, happy New Year. Thank you for coming here so early in the morning. Is there anything urgent?"
"Cousin, Madam asked me to give you a New Year's gift, but I was delayed because of something else, so I just arrived now."
Hearing this, Guo Xiaoxiao's heart warmed up and he asked softly: "Aunt Xue has taken the trouble. Is it difficult to walk on the road?"
"No. When I went out, I met Princess Qing. I asked the younger one to bring the young lady's New Year's gift with her."
"Princess Qing is very interested. Uncle Li has worked hard. It's late tomorrow, so Uncle Li can take a rest. It won't be too late to come back tomorrow."
"No. Miss, I entrusted the little one to you."
As he spoke, Li Quan took out a few pieces of paper from his sleeve pocket, handed them to Guo Xiaoxiao, and then said: "Your Majesty, please remind me that there was an avalanche in Hanlan Mansion east of Qingyang Mansion in recent months, and there were many casualties.
Few people."
"Your Excellency is worried that something will happen outside Qingyang Mansion, so I told Miss Qingming not to go out. There are no snow-capped mountains within three hundred miles of Wuming Village, so please be safer."
Hearing this, Guo Xiaoxiao felt a chill in his heart. Was there really an avalanche? There were many casualties, but how many?
Immediately, he responded seriously: "Thank you, Uncle Li, for informing me. How are his aunt and uncle doing recently?"
"Ms. Lao, please remember that you and your wife are both very nice."
Seeing Ziyu walking in with a tray, Guo Xiaoxiao said with a smile: "That's good. Uncle Li has been traveling for so long, let's eat something to warm him up first."
"Steward Li, please use it slowly." Ziyu placed the tray on the table, picked up a large bowl of dumplings and the water prepared by Guo Xiaoxiao and placed them on the table. She looked at Li Quan with the tray and said.
"Thank you, Miss. I'm sorry to bother Miss Ziyu."
Ziyu smiled and retreated.
Guo Xiaoxiao and Li Quan, one was drinking water, the other was eating dumplings...
Not long after, Li Quan drank the soup in the bowl, sipped it with unfinished content, gave a thumbs up to Guo Xiaoxiao, and then asked, "Miss, is there anything I need you to do?"
?”
Hearing this, Guo Xiaoxiao responded seriously: "There is exactly one."
"Miss, please give me your instructions."
"I hope Uncle Li will do well in that matter."
"must!"
"That's no, Uncle Li, have a good rest. We'll talk about it tomorrow." After saying that, Guo Xiaoxiao covered her mouth and snickered.
Li Quan, who came back to his senses, also smiled, then bowed his legs and excused himself, "No, excuse me, little one."
Seeing Li Quan walking out quickly, Guo Xiaoxiao didn't get up. She was waiting for Ziyu to come over and report back.
A moment of effort.
Ziyu walked in quickly and handed the list in her lap to Guo Xiaoxiao, "Miss, the new year's gifts sent by Princess Qing and Master Li have been ordered and put into the warehouse. I would like to ask you to take a look at the list."
"
Guo Xiaoxiao took it, looked at it, and handed the list to Ziyu, "Keep it. Okay, go back to the house and sleep."
"No, ma'am."
Guo Xiaoxiao, who was already a little sleepy, went to sleep on the bed. He was sleeping soundly when he suddenly felt that the bed was shaking, and it was shaking violently.
She felt something was wrong, she opened her eyes with a gasp, quickly moved out of bed and ran out of the house.
Because he was too anxious, he bumped into Ziyu who was running towards him.
"Miss!"
"Yu Yu? How are Ziyang and the others? How is Uncle Li?"
"Miss, Butler Li has gone to call the two young masters. The maid is here to call you and the third lady."
"I'll take Zi Qing out and tell Butler Li to go to an open area. He'll go out and see what's going on."
"No. Miss, be careful."
"Um."
After answering, Guo Xiaoxiao turned his head and glanced at the violently shaking yard. He saw Xiao Ziyang coming out of the house followed by Butler Li with Xiao Ziqing. Then he used Qinggong and flew out of the yard. He saw exclamations and cries everywhere.
…
Black Rose, who was known as the "cold-blooded" member of the organization in her lifetime (the rose mentioned above, was changed to black rose there, which is smoother. Thanks to Baozi for the suggestion), did not go to the village to help the villagers immediately, but hid in the night
I watched everyone running out in panic.
It’s not that she is cold-blooded, but that she is well aware of the sinister nature of people’s hearts.
In the night, seeing Wen Yan, Wang Xiaoju and their families safe and sound, she whispered to them to carry oil lamps and head to an open place, and then flew towards the Wu family at the entrance of the village.
Seeing that Chen Lianhua's family was also safe and sound, he secretly gave some instructions before returning to the Xiao family courtyard.
At that time, the Xiao family, which had no other people around, became very lively.
Seeing the villagers suddenly gathered not far from Xiao's house, Guo Xiaoxiao asked in a low voice: "Yuyu, what's going on?"
"Qian."
"Qian?"
Guo Xiaoxiao snorted coldly and said in a deep voice: "That's not a good way to deal with her. She jumped up to her first. Talk to Butler Li and take good care of Ziyang and the others."
"The shaking wasn't too severe at that time. He went into the house to pack some things and came out. There were many people there, so I kept an eye on it."
"No, miss. Purple jade and bright red."
Guo Xiaoxiao hummed softly, and then ducked into the yard. He went to Ziyang's house first, collected all the books she took out, and checked every room in the house. He found that none of the weapons of the three brothers and sisters were there.
