"Hey, I get angry when you mention this, but I just can't sleep. You don't know. My house was robbed. What do you mean? The official's house was robbed by thieves. , I feel ridiculous even if I say it.”

Mrs. Xu held her forehead and felt that her head started to hurt again.

"The jewelry box in my room was stolen by the thief. My heart is so cold. The jewelry box contains all my favorite fashion jewelry. Each one is worth a hundred taels. Look. What I wear on my head are all tattered things that were just taken out from the warehouse. Although my son promised me to buy me two more sets of masks in a while, I am still angry, this damn thief will not die well!"

Yan Xia lowered his head, gently twitched the corners of his mouth, and raised his smile again.

"Isn't that right? I wish her no more children in her life and she will be infertile! Mrs. Xu, don't be angry. If the old ones don't go away, the new ones won't come. It's a coincidence. I'm going back to Jiayuan tomorrow. What county are you in? Yesterday I passed by a jewelry store and wanted to choose a small bracelet for my grandson who was about to give birth, but I caught a glimpse of a bracelet and a hairpin. The two obviously did not belong to the same set, but they were very special. Like Mrs. Xu, I thought that your white hair would look good on you, so I bought it for you.

I happen to be leaving Jiangnan County tomorrow, so this is a farewell gift before I leave. I'm afraid my grandson won't be here for a while after he is born. If you miss me, look at this bracelet and hairpin. Come on, haha, just kidding, Mrs. Xu, don’t be sad. From now on, I will work hard to earn money to fill your new jewelry box. As long as you are happy, I am happier than anything else. "

Yan Xia opened the small ebony box in his hand, showed the jewelry inside to Mrs. Xu, and joked playfully.

"Ouch, I spent a lot of money on you. These bracelets and hairpins are so exquisite. They look good. They look so good. You know my preferences! Mrs. Yan, I like you so much. Come on, Xiaoyu, take the hair off my head. Take off the hairpin and gold bracelet on my hand, I want to try them on."

Mrs. Xu's originally crying face suddenly turned into a smile.

The maid next to her put on the hairpin and bracelet for her, and brought a small bronze mirror over for her to look at.

"It's more gorgeous than my previous jewelry. Okay, that's great. Mrs. Yan, you are so sensible. I even want to accept you as my goddaughter. All your gifts are sent to my heart. They are so thoughtful." Extremely, hey, I really couldn’t sleep all night yesterday. I lost so many jewelry, but today you brought me jewelry. Haha, not bad, you did a good job. Please stay here for lunch. I’ll ask the cook to give it to me. You can prepare a table of delicious dishes for your farewell party."

Mrs. Xu smiled so brightly that she no longer cared about the jewelry she had lost before.

After all, Yan Xia had promised to fill her new jewelry box in the future.

In addition, her son also said that he would compensate her for two sets of face, so she still made a profit.

Think of it as trading in an old one for a new one.

Anyway, the jewelry Yan gave me was free.

The more Mrs. Xu looked at Yan Xia, the more satisfied she became.

He wished he could accept her as his goddaughter on the spot.

These words shocked Yan Xia, and she complained crazily in her heart.

[But don’t, I will be your goddaughter. When you are executed by the Nine Clan, I will also die. 】

Yan Xia thought of the letters exchanged between Xuzhi County and the Jiangnan governor, and shuddered all over. She didn't want to be implicated.

In ancient times, Qianqin was also a serious relative.

"Old madam, I don't deserve to be your goddaughter. I just want to rely on your light and learn from your good moral character to teach my children. You have broken me. I really can't bear this kind of promotion. Moreover, if If I really become your goddaughter, if word spreads, others will point fingers at Yan's Pastry Shop and say that I am in love with the magistrate. If I encounter some bad people who are jealous of me and do many bad things, won't it make the magistrate famous? Being damaged, this is not what I want, old lady, I just want to honor you in a low-key manner."

Yan Xia's sincere attitude, especially her look of not wanting to climb high, pleased Mrs. Xu.

Her love for Yan Xia actually reached several levels.

[Target person detected]

[Name: Fan Qinlian]

[Age: 64 years old]

【Favourability: 70】

Fan Qinlian?

Who is this?

Yan Xia suddenly heard the system announcement and was a little confused.

No, Mrs. Xu’s last name seems to be Fan.

What a good guy, I actually raised her favorability level to 70.

It seems that flattering really works.

"You're a sensible person. Okay, I'll listen to you. Come on, eat melons and fruits. You're sweating. Thank you for your hard work." Mrs. Fan touched the back of Yan Xia's hand, poked a piece of watermelon with a fork and handed it to Yan Xia. Xia, how amiable he is, is no longer the same as when we first met him.

Yan Xia pretended to be flattered and took the fork.

"Old madam, you look so beautiful when you smile. You should smile more in the future. People who don't know may think that we are sisters, but my appearance is too bad to compare with you, old madam."

Since flattery is effective, Yan Xia pats her crazily.

"Haha, look at your sweet mouth, how could I be so young?" Mrs. Fan was coaxed by her to show her big yellow teeth, and her shoulders were shaking when she smiled.

"Mom! Have you caught the thief? All my boxes of treasures are gone. This is all my belongings." When the two were chatting happily, Xu Wenshan hurried in. She had anger on her face, and she was also in a state of confusion at the moment. Green and black.

"It can't be that fast. Your elder brother has been busy with this matter for the past two days. Just wait for now. Come and eat some fruits."

"I won't eat it, mother~ It's not like you don't know that my box is full of treasures. There are high-quality fabrics and ice-grown jade I bought from the border. I heard that the jade came out of the same batch, and all of it has jade. , if made into a bracelet, each one can be sold for more than a thousand taels. Money is a trivial matter, and the eldest brother has plenty of it anyway.

But that fabric is rare. Among them, there is only one piece of Xingyue Brocade in the world. Among them, the embroiderer who knew how to embroider silver and gold thread has died and has become an orphan. I can't bear to wear it. I want to leave it to Jiao Jiao. Jiao is being used as a dowry, mother, please let your elder brother catch the thief! My daughter is not so angry after losing money. The key things are important, mother——"

Xu Wenshan shook Fan's arm.

The sound is like a boiling kettle.

It sounds harsh.

"Okay, okay, stop yelling. It makes my head hurt. If you don't want to eat melons and fruits, go back to sleep. It's pitch black under your eyes. Those who don't know may think you've gone out to become a thief too."

All mothers in the world are like this.

The children have not returned for a long time. On the first day they came back, they were treated as ancestors and served as their ancestors, but on the second day they began to dislike them.

Fan couldn't avoid it either.

"Mother? Where did the hairpin on your head come from? Wasn't your jewelry box stolen? Could it be that there are good things in the warehouse of our house? Mother, please get me a few sets, I don't have any jewelry to wear. .”
