After rebirth, she became the favorite of the powerful minister.

The next morning, as if it had been agreed in advance, Jin Yunian and Xu Chengjin both came. With just one glance, Yuan Ge knew that there had been no movement from the prodigal son of the Qian family.

Come to think of it, even though this prodigal son boasted a lot in the gambling house, snow lotus seeds are not a treasure that everyone is vying for. Even if you want to sell them, not everyone may be willing to buy them, unless you sell them at a discount to a larger medical clinic - but I think Mr. Qian would not allow his prodigal son to squander the family's wealth like this.

There is no rush for the matter of the snow lotus seeds. If there is no news from that prodigal son, we can pick a dark and windy night and break into the Qian family.

Young Master Jin, on the other hand, looked mysterious. He squatted beside the doghouse and hugged his good brother Wen Xiaobai, muttering to each other for a long time. Yuan Ge quietly leaned in to listen. It turned out to be a difficult question about what kind of gift to give to a girl. Yuan Ge silently raised his head and looked up at the sky. After a long while, he sighed deeply and asked sincerely, "As for giving gifts to a girl, you don't ask me, a woman, or Master Xu who has been among many flowers. You ask a male dog who has never been touched by a female dog..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the other party jumped three feet high, "You, you you you..." The words and sentences were incoherent. The always sharp-tongued Mr. Jin's face turned red and he couldn't say a word.

"Ignore him." Xu Chengjin shook his head. "This kid has been crazy lately, suffering from lovesickness, but he is hiding it tightly. I've already told you, if we know who it is, we can prescribe the right medicine to please him, right? It's useless, he won't tell you even if you kill him... No one in the imperial prison can hold it in. Forget it, let's not help him, just let him suffocate to death! When the girl got married and had a baby, he continued to hold this dog and look into each other's eyes, with tears in his eyes."

With Xu Chengjin's mouth, he should probably be a storyteller.

"Qianqian, come and have dinner." Song Wenyuan brought breakfast over. After thinking for a moment, he reminded, "I met Mr. and Mrs. Ouyang two days ago. They said that Miss Zhong's birthday was coming up. In view of the previous bad incident, the couple planned to hold a grand celebration. They said that the invitation would be sent soon, and they told me to take Qianqian with me no matter what... So, where should Master Jin's gift be sent to?"

Young Master Jin's face was no longer red enough to describe it; he looked as if he had accidentally gone insane while practicing martial arts and his blood vessels were about to burst. His lips trembled and he couldn't utter a single word "no".

Okay, the case is solved.

Xu Chengjin propped up his chin and laughed, "It's quite interesting to say that. The two people who didn't like each other at first ended up like this after all these twists and turns... Oh, judging from her appearance, the girl probably doesn't have that intention yet, right? Oh... Young Master Jin has a long way to go to catch his wife!"

Song Wenyuan served Yuan Ge porridge and picked up the pickled vegetables she usually liked to eat. He raised his eyes and teased him, "With Madam Jin and Madam Ouyang as guarantors, his pain in chasing his wife is just a young man's wish. He can always get his wife back. But you, you are old, do you really want to be alone like this?"

Lord Song now had a place to stay, and he felt the warmth of seeing a light on in the yard when he came back in the middle of the night. He began to worry about his good friend's future sincerely.

But he himself didn't even know it, and these words coming out of his mouth seemed particularly heartbreaking.

The morning sunlight always seems to have a kind of bustling atmosphere. When it shines on the yard, the time seems particularly peaceful. Even the little maid who is hanging clothes and smiling secretly seems particularly beautiful.

That kind of mundane atmosphere seems particularly ordinary and simple, and has little to do with wealth or power.

However, Xu Chengjin had never seen such a worldly atmosphere in the Xu family. When he was young in the Xu family, he always faced heart-wrenching disputes and hysterical abuse. Every servant was trembling with fear and treading on thin ice. How could there be any beauty? In the Xu family, even the flowers seemed to bloom differently from other places, especially monotonous, all bright red peonies. Because Mrs. Xu felt that only bright red peonies could show her status and pride as the main wife.

As for the rest, they are weeds and should be eradicated.

So, how could he plant his beloved flowers in the soil of the Xu family that had long since stank?

However, such a mood is not suitable to ruin this sunny morning, so Master Xu just looked at Yuan Ge who was eating breakfast with squinting eyes, and responded perfunctorily, "You are not very old, but you have learned the style of old scholars to start matchmaking and urging marriage. I am different from the idiot on the ground who is in love and can only hug a dog and talk about his feelings. The people who want to marry me in Shengjing City can line up from here to outside the city gate. I have to choose carefully."

Miss Yuan raised her eyelids and sneered without giving any face, "Yes, after all the selection, the girls have all married and had children, and you are the only one left who is too picky and has a hunched back. You can only hug a dog and confide in each other."

Hey! Does this person know how to talk? Doesn't she know which side she should stand on? Xu Chengjin was so angry that his head hurt. He threw the half-eaten snack back into the bowl with a "pop". "Even if I am old and hunchbacked, I am still a flower in Shengjing! Even if I want to confide in someone, I won't talk to a dog, I will talk to a cat!"

...Looking for a cat seems to be more noble than looking for a dog. Yuan Ge was too lazy to pay attention to this person. He shook his head, thinking about what happened yesterday, and said casually, "My cousin came over last night. She said that nowadays are different from the past. Since we are guests, we can't lose etiquette. She wanted to treat us to a meal and a play, and asked me to ask your opinions."

Young Master Jin squatted back on the ground without even thinking about it and refused sullenly, "I'm not in the mood. I won't go."

Yuan Ge glanced at Jin Yunian and said, "I'm going to call Zhong Wei and Yu Qingqing."

"Then...then go." After saying that, he explained in a low voice, "It's mainly because Miss Cousin rarely comes here. If I don't go, it will seem that I'm not enthusiastic."

Xu Chengjin, who was still sulking because of Yuan Ge's elbow sticking outward, laughed again, "She's not your cousin, why should you be so enthusiastic? Just tell me if you want to see someone, I won't laugh at you."

"Shut up!" Young Master Jin turned around and yelled at him, but then he let out a long sigh as if to stop...

Song Wenyuan looked at the three bickering and shook his head helplessly, then he asked directly, "What are you looking at?"

Yuan Ge grinned silently, looking like a hunter who had been dormant for a long time and finally saw his prey. Then he said, "I don't know. My cousin built the stage and performed the play herself. So I want to see what the play is."

Except for the one on the ground, everyone present was smart. They understood the hidden meaning after hearing this. Master Xu also smiled slowly and said, "Then let's go and take a look."
