Dressed as the real daughter of the wealthy control group

Under the persimmon tree in the courtyard, Ming Ge stood under the small persimmons and smiled sweetly at the Duke of Jin.

Qiu Mubai was struck by her smile and was in a daze. He lowered his eyes to hide all the emotions in his eyes.

"Ahem, the gentleman is here." The steward saw Feng Mianzhou standing at the corner of the corridor, looking at the scene of the man's love for his concubine with a blank face, and secretly shouted, "Well, the prince of the Jin Kingdom has made it clear that he has feelings for Lady Yue." Thinking about it, Lady Yue won’t fall in love with him at first sight, right?

What about their husband?

"Senior brother, Xie Langjun." Feng Mianzhou passed by Ming Ge, looked at Qiu Mubai and Xie Jinghuan, and said with a smile, "Please come into the main hall for tea, Ming Ge, you can come too."

Ming Ge nodded, then pointed to the persimmons on the tree and said, "Beat some for me, cover them until soft, and then you can eat them when I get to Shengjing."

Feng Mianzhou knew that she was a foodie, so he nodded and said, "Okay."

Qiu Mubai and Xie Jinghuan frowned thoughtfully when they saw this. The group moved to the main hall to drink tea. Xie Jinghuan came to deliver the greeting card. He should have left when the greeting card was delivered to him, but today he stayed for tea inexplicably. .

Qiu Mubai and Feng Mianzhou had not seen each other for nearly a year. Originally, when the brothers met, they planned to have a drink, but they had their own thoughts, so they only drank tea, and then ordered dinner to be served.

Xie Jinghuan also stayed for dinner.

There were still two tables for dinner, and Mingge ate alone. Qiu Yuxiu was very afraid of this eldest brother, but she knew that Mingge didn't like to eat at the same table with others, so she had to bite the bullet and stay at the table. Feng Mianzhou's table.

Seeing this, Qiu Mubai said, "Won't Lady Yue dine with us?"

Feng Mianzhou saw that his senior brother's attention was on Ming Ge. He recalled that the way Ming Ge looked at him was clearly different from ordinary people. His excitement and enthusiasm when he first saw Qiu Mubai were instantly extinguished. He smiled lightly and said, "She doesn't like it." Sitting at the same table with others is a habit."

A habitual problem? Who got used to it?

Everyone present was a smart person. They laughed, covered up the topic, continued to eat, and talked about the treasure hunt banquet.

Feng Xiaolian took the opportunity to ask: "Mr. Xie, I heard that there was a southern pearl at the Xie family's treasure hunting party this time, which can prolong life and live to a hundred years. Is it true?"

"Nan Zhuzi?"

Everyone looked at Xie Jinghuan in surprise.

Xie Jinghuan shouldn't reveal such confidential matters, but when he saw everyone looking at him, even Ming Ge in the next seat was biting a Sixi Yuanzi and looking at him with a smile like crescent eyes, something suddenly happened. He nodded and said: "The Xie family does have a southern pearl, but I don't know whether the owner of the family regards it as a prize for the treasure hunting party."

Feng Xiaolian and Feng Mianzhou looked at each other. Even if the Xie family did not take the South Pearl as a lottery, the Feng family could still pay other prices in exchange for this South Pearl.

"I heard that the southern pearl is a rare thing in the deep sea. It is also called a water-avoiding pearl. One pearl can avoid water and relieve hundreds of poisons. The Xie family actually has such a rare treasure. It is worthy of being a century-old family with a profound heritage."

Qiu Mubai points out the real purpose of Nanzhu. Avoid water and detoxify, not the so-called longevity.

Xie Jinghuan: "That's right. The prince is very knowledgeable and well-informed, which is admirable. My sister's treasure hunt banquet is coming soon, and I will invite all the gentlemen to the banquet.

This time, the head of the family intends to choose a suitable husband for his sister among the descendants of the participating aristocratic families. "

Xie Jinghuan said.

At the table, everyone had different thoughts and fell silent for a moment.

Ming Ge swallowed the Sixi Yuanzi in his mouth and said excitedly: "Okay, okay, can I go? I want to see the most beautiful woman in the family, and I also want to see Nan Zhuzi to see what it is like. bead."

If you can go into the sea and touch a few southern pearls, you might be able to throw them into Crescent Moon Lake to get a foothold.

No, since it is a water-avoiding bead, can she fish in the water as long as she holds this southern bead?

Seeing her bright smile, Xie Jinghuan said, "Of course it's okay. I'll send an invitation to my wife when I get home. But I'm afraid I won't be able to sit at the same table as the Crown Prince and Feng Langjun. The men and women will sit separately."

Ming Ge waved his hands indifferently and said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Thank you very much, Mr. Lang."

Ming Ge clapped his hands and said with a smile: "There is no need to wait for Mr. Lang to see you off. I will go with Mr. Lang after dinner."

Xie Jinghuan was a little flattered: "Okay."

At the table, the atmosphere suddenly became a little solid. Feng Mianzhou's eyebrows were furrowed and he said nothing. Qiu Mubai also frowned, wondering what Ting Ge's thoughts were for a moment.

This girl was obviously shocked when she saw him, and she felt like she fell in love with him at first sight. Why did she have to go back to Xie's house with Xie Jinghuan in the blink of an eye?

Could it be that she was attracted to Xie Jinghuan?

Qiu Yuxiu saw that something was wrong in the atmosphere at the table. She wrung her handkerchief and awkwardly scratched her toes. She happened to meet Feng Xiaolian's eyes, who was sitting opposite. The other person smiled at her, indescribably amiable, and subconsciously replied. Smiling, in a blink of an eye, everyone at the table, except Feng Xiaolian, was looking at Ming Ge, and Ming Ge's attention was focused on the table of delicious food in front of him.

Qiu Yuxiu suddenly became excited, as if a bystander realized that she had never been involved in the game from beginning to end.

Feng Mianzhou could never see her. His eldest brother was always away from home leading troops, and he didn't have much of a brother-sister relationship with her. The husband of the Xie family was amazed by Ming Ge from the beginning to the end. Only the eldest son of the Feng family noticed. Her embarrassment.

She suddenly wanted to sit alone with Ming Ge, so that even if the world didn't see her, she could focus on the delicious food in front of her and not be disturbed by external things.

Everyone had their own thoughts on the meal and finished it in a very hasty manner.

After dinner, Qiu Yuxiu reluctantly said goodbye to Mingge, and made an appointment to go out to visit Quancheng tomorrow. Then she and Qiu Mubai returned to the courtyard of Quancheng. Mingge hitched a horse and was waiting at the door very excitedly. Waiting to go to Xie's house with Xie Jinghuan to get the invitation.

The steward ordered someone to prepare a four-carriage carriage, and said with a smile: "Girl, there is still some distance to go to Xie's house, why not go by carriage? The carriage is covered with thick fox fur and soft cushions, and it is also scented with incense. There are local pastries and fruits from Quancheng.”

The steward said and ordered someone to open the carriage door.

Ming Ge took a look and saw that the aroma was astonishing and the decoration inside was very exquisite and luxurious.

She waved her hand and said, "No, it has the Feng clan's emblem on it. I'd better go on horseback."

The manager hesitated to speak. There are rules in Quancheng. Riding is not allowed after nightfall.

"It's okay." Feng Mianzhou and Xie Jinghuan came out of the door and said, "I'll send her there."

The steward left silently.

Xie Jinghuan glanced slightly sideways, what kind of identity is the husband of the Feng family to actually send Lady Yue there in person? Didn't he really come here for the treasure hunting party? But the Feng family was obviously very interested in the treasure hunt feast, and they just dragged him around to inquire about it?

Ming Ge looked at the darkening sky and asked with a smile: "Xie Langjun, is the head of the Xie family here at this time?"

Xie Jinghuan said hurriedly: "The master of the house is here, but he doesn't see outsiders on weekdays. If the wife wants to visit Xie's house, Jinghuan can make the decision."

Ming Ge nodded and said with a smile: "Then I'll trouble Mr. Xie."

I hope Mr. Xie won’t have his legs broken by the head of the Xie family when he goes back.

Ming Ge looked at Feng Mianzhou and saw that he had changed into another set of blue and brocade robes. The auspicious clouds and cranes embroidered on it almost fluttered its wings. He was indescribably elegant and elegant. He immediately shook his head secretly. Man, when he learned that he was going to see the second son of the family, Such a beautiful woman, so dressed up in such a fancy way!

Because Ming Ge wanted to ride a horse, Xie Jinghuan and Feng Mianzhou also abandoned their carriage and followed her with their horses.

Feng San led two elite escorts to follow him at a short distance.

The group headed to Xie's Mansion.

At night, Quancheng is much more lively than the surrounding town markets. It feels like a city that never sleeps. There are singing and dancing everywhere, boats are painted on the lake, and the sound of silk and bamboo can be heard from afar, and the songs are all the melodious sounds of love and concubine.

Ming Ge held the horse and listened quietly. From the voices of the singing girls, I could hear a trace of sadness and panic. It seemed that the road ahead was dark and there was no one to rely on. The only choice was to sing a homesick ditty on the boat on the lake, dying in a foreign land. .

Ming Ge: "There are no such singing girls in southern Xinjiang."

She suddenly realized why her mother-in-law didn't allow her to go down the mountain. The endings of the words written by the elder were "be". It turned out that the more lively and prosperous the place, the more unknown darkness was hidden.

Xie Jinghuan didn't understand the meaning of her words and thought it was the first time she saw such a painted boat singer. Just as he was about to speak, Feng Mianzhou said in a low voice: "That's the luck of Southern Xinjiang."

Xie Jinghuan opened his mouth to say something, but then silently closed his mouth.

Ming Ge pondered for a few seconds, nodded and smiled: "Indeed. Xie Langjun, besides Nanzhuzi, what other treasures does the Xie family have?"

Xie Jinghuan was asked, his expression was strange, and he said after a long time: "Jing Huan is just a descendant of the Xie family, I don't know the truth."

Ming Ge nodded, prepared not to embarrass him, led the horse, went to a street shop and bought a lantern, hung it on the horse, then bought a bag of fried melon seeds, hummed a small tune, and went to Xie's house.

Quancheng is the ancestral home of the Xie family. Xie's house occupies a very large area, covering an area of ​​100 acres. It is adjacent to four streets and has four gates in the southeast and northwest. Each gate is magnificent, and there are two white jade lions in front of the gate.

Xie Jinghuan took Ming Ge and Feng Mianzhou through the east gate.

Mingge looked at Xie's house with white walls and glazed tiles, and at the row of lanterns hanging in the corner. The word "thank you" was written in gold powder on the lanterns. Before Xie Jinghuan spoke, he shouted loudly: "Yueshi Mingge, come to collect debts." .”

Eight big characters broke through the deep darkness of the night and knocked on the door of the Xie family, a century-old family. They spread throughout the streets and alleys of Quancheng and set off a huge wave in the near future.

Everyone in the Xie family looked confused. Debt collection? Who dares to come to Xie’s doorstep and act recklessly?

The steward of the Xie family hurriedly brought someone out to challenge him, but he was even more confused when he saw that the person calling the door was a young and beautiful girl, accompanied by Xie Jinghuan and the husband of the Feng family.

What's going on? The children of the Xie family brought people to call the door to collect debts?

"Mr. Jing, Mr. Feng Lang, what does this mean?"

Xie Jinghuan was completely stunned. Feng Mianzhou laughed softly on the side. He thought that Mingge's purpose in coming to Xie's house was not simple, but he didn't expect that he came to collect debts. At this moment, Xie Jinghuan probably wanted to die. Bar.

"Miss Yue, what does this mean?"

Xie Jinghuan asked.

Ming Ge squinted his eyes and took out his brocade bag with a smile. He found the Xie family's share from a pile of crumpled and yellowed parchment, and said loudly: "Yueshi Mingge, former I'm here to collect debts, thank you family master, is it possible that you want to default on your debts?"

Her pretty face was covered with a layer of frost, like a snow-capped mountain goddess, sacred and inviolable. The manager of the Xie family was frightened by her aura. Seeing that Feng Mianzhou was also there, he must have something to do with the Feng family, so he quickly sent someone to invite the head of the family or invite someone to visit. Miss, come here.

"Madam, I have something to say. My Xie family has a big business. We have always been owed money by others. I have never heard that Xie owed money to others. Is there a misunderstanding? I have sent someone to report to the family owner. Please wait a moment. Wait a moment."

The steward said and asked Xie Jinghuan with his eyes.

Xie Jinghuan came to his senses and realized that Ming Ge didn't come back with him to get the invitation at all. She used his identity and Feng Mianzhou's identity to collect debts.

Xie Jinghuan pursed his lips and said nothing. He didn't know the whole story and would not get involved.

Ming Ge smiled and ate melon seeds and said, "No hurry, no rush, please help me move a stool, I'll sit and wait."

The corner of the steward's mouth twitched. If anyone else had acted wildly, he would have had someone beat him out with a big stick. But with Feng Mianzhou behind this girl, the steward had no choice but to order someone to bring a stool, and then watched Ming Ge sitting at the door of Xie's house. In front of me, while eating melon seeds, I touched the white jade lion and picked out the emerald eyeballs on the white jade lion. Suddenly my eyes almost popped out.

Are you really not here to extort money from the Xie family?

Xie Jinghuan felt numb in his heart at the moment. On the one hand, he felt that this girl was cunning, and on the other hand, he felt that her behavior of chewing melon seeds and picking out the lion's eyes was indescribably cute. It was so love-hating that one didn't know what to do. .

Xie Jinghuan glanced at Feng Mianzhou, who was calm beside him, and said in a low voice: "Do you know what debt Lady Yue is here to collect?"

Feng Mianzhou: "I don't know."

Feng Mianzhou looked at the thick parchment in her hand, and his left eyelid twitched. He suddenly felt that this deal was not worthwhile at all. According to Ming Ge's debt collection style, it won't take long before all the worlds in Jiuzhou will be destroyed. She offended the light.

Xie Jinghuan: "I'm afraid I won't sleep well tonight."

I'm afraid I won't get any sleep tonight.

With Ming Ge's posture, and the Feng Mianzhou and Feng family guards following behind him, within a quarter of an hour, rumors spread that someone came to collect debts from the Xie family, and many aristocratic families sent people to inquire.

The street corners were absolutely crowded.

"Oops, I stepped on my foot, sorry."

"Hey, you guys come to watch the fun too?"

"Who says it's not the case? It's rare to see the excitement of the Xie family. So what's the situation now? Is the Feng family coming to the Xie family to collect debts?"

"It doesn't seem to be the case. I heard that a young girl came to the Xie family to collect debts."

"Then what are Mr. Xie and Mr. Feng doing standing at the door?"

"How do I know? I have to ask them?"

"Then I'll go ask." Xiao Miao waved his white jade fan and swaggered forward under the watchful eyes of the children and servants of the aristocratic family who were eating melons and watching the fun.

"Is he the playboy from the Xiao family?"

"Yes, he has nothing to do except eat, drink and have fun. Gui believes that he can strike up a friendship with Feng Mianzhou. Don't go and come back disappointed."

The next second, everyone's jaws dropped. Xiao Liao stepped forward to chat with the girl, and then the two of them ate melon seeds and joined the debt collection army!

This time, there was a sensation on the street corner.

Three gentlemen from aristocratic families and one unknown girl formed a debt collection army and came to the Xie family to collect debts.

The news spread throughout the city in an instant.

Seeing that the situation was getting more and more serious, the manager of the Xie family did not dare to invite people in, nor could he leave it alone. When he was so anxious, Xie Shu came late.

Xie Shu had already taken off his hairpin makeup and was about to go to bed. Hearing that someone came to collect debts, and they came with Xie Jinghuan and Feng Mianzhou, he had to get up again to put on makeup and change clothes, and applied the most popular Begonia makeup. Paired with a gorgeous golden skirt, she is as graceful and luxurious as a peony.

Because it was night, Xie Shu put on a cloak and hood and walked over. From a distance, he saw Feng Mianzhou and Xie Jinghuan standing in front of the door with their hands behind their backs. They looked like orchids and jade trees, which was eye-catching.

"Feng Langjun, long time no see." Xie Shu turned towards Feng Mianzhou without even looking at anyone else.

Feng Mianzhou bowed and smiled slightly: "Thank you, madam, how are you doing lately?"

Xiao Liao clicked his tongue on the side, lowered his voice and said to Ming Ge: "The Xie family girl has two faces, one is cold and the other is hot. Don't be fooled by her beautiful face."

Ming Ge was chewing melon seeds and watching with great interest, and whispered: "I think you have been deceived before."

Xiao Liao sighed: "The past cannot be recalled."

They are all young and ignorant. He is also one of those people who have been severely hurt by Xie Shu. Fortunately, he has woken up, while many people have not.

The sound of the two talking finally caught Xie Shu's attention. Xie Shu glanced directly past Xiao Liao and saw Ming Ge's face. His figure paused and his expression was unclear.

Ming Ge was eating melon seeds and looked at the expression on the face of the steward of the Xie family. She couldn't get rid of the jade beads on the stone lion in front of the door. The steward's face turned green with anger. If it wasn't for Feng Mianzhou's face, , probably coming forward to chase her away.

Xiao Liao was still watching the excitement and said excitedly: "The beads on this stone lion are not of good quality. If you like it, how about returning to Shengjing and I will make you a little jade lion?"

"Okay." Ming Ge said with a smile, "When we get to Shengjing, I will also go to the Xiao family to collect a debt."

Xiao Liao thought she was joking and said with a smile: "It's a deal, we must come."

Feng Mianzhou and Xie Jinghuan on the side looked at him as if he were a fool, feeling that this man was not very smart. Is debt collection a glorious thing? Being made such a fuss by Ming Ge, the Xie family's face would be trampled to the ground, let alone his Xiao family, who was at the bottom of the pile.

"Presumably this lady is the one who came to Xie's house to collect debts?" Xie Shu stood at the door and looked down at Ming Ge.

She is tall and tall, and has a bright and attractive appearance. The golden threads on her skirt sparkle in the night, and she is as beautiful as a fairy in the toad palace. However, with this kind of makeup, she is inexplicably inferior in front of Ming Ge, who has dark hair and plain skirt. .

This girl is dressed plainly, her bun is even a little loose, and her eyebrows are like a crescent moon with a crescent smile, as if she is mocking her for appearing in makeup, with ulterior motives.

"I'm right. Your skirt will shine. Is it made of gold thread? Is it valuable?" Ming Ge put the jade bead he picked out into his armhole and was angry when he saw that the Xie family was in charge. He was so angry that he stepped forward with a smile and wanted to touch Xie Shu's skirt.

Xie Shu took a step back and said arrogantly and coldly: "My father is not feeling well and should not meet guests. I can just handle such a small matter. I wonder if my wife has an IOU? If it is true, the Xie family will pay back ten times. If it is made out of nothing, it will destroy the Xie family." Reputation, the Xie family will definitely pursue this matter to the end."

Xie Shu looked at Feng Mianzhou: "Feng Langjun, do you have any objections?"

Feng Mianzhou stood with his hands behind his back and said gracefully: "This matter has nothing to do with the Feng family. Madam Xie can make the final decision."

After Xie Shu got the guarantee, he looked at Ming Ge. No matter what the girl's purpose was, she would let her see the majesty of Xie's family, so that her reputation would be ruined and she would return home in vain.
