The villain is far from my CP!

"Ah, you mean, my little girl, Bai Qiao, ran into your young master at the grain store a few days ago, and solved the urgent need with a few words?"

In the teahouse, the master of the Bai family had a look of disbelief.

"Yes, my young master is very grateful, and today he specially ordered me to send the greeting card. There is still some care, and he will come to thank you in person tomorrow."

According to Qi Changting's explanation, He Cheng delivered the words verbatim.

In fact, Qi Changting planned to visit directly today, but after the secret talk with him yesterday, the shopkeeper of the grain store was as bloody as a chicken, his face was flushed with excitement, and he sent a letter early this morning saying that everything went well, and he had gathered all the hard-pressed people in the past. A group of grain merchants oppressed by the government and its henchmen can immediately discuss the details of borrowing grain.

The disaster was urgent, so Qi Changting had to put aside the visit for the time being, but in order to express his sincerity for the final payment, he asked He Chenglai to hand over the greeting card and salute first.

He Cheng took the words and left, leaving Master Bai and the housekeeper to look at each other.

"Dongdu, Qi Family Qi Zheng, Qianfang Cabinet Workshop?" Bai Yifeng stroked a small beard on his chin, flipped through the greeting card and said, "I don't think I've heard of it before."

"Master, if you look at what he brought, don't you know what it is?" the housekeeper suggested.

The man nodded and signaled the housekeeper to take a look, while he picked up his teacup and took a sip.

The small box opened, and it was a fist-sized Jade Buddha.

"It feels like it's of average quality." The butler muttered.

When Bai Yifeng heard the words, he glanced casually, but his hands trembled.

"Here," he threw down the teacup, hurried forward two steps, carefully picked up the small emerald green Buddha in the box, and took a photo of it in the sun, surprised and delighted, "The items in the Shangbao Pavilion in Beijing! "

Shangbao Pavilion, the most expensive jade shop in the Eastern Capital.

The reason why it is said to be the most expensive is not because of the high price, but because of the relationship.

The jade ornaments there are all from the palace, because they don't like it or have some flaws, they are discarded by the nobles.In the Great Hui Dynasty, where there was a degree of respect and inferiority, such things could only be bought with money, and there must be a relationship from above.

If the family of merchants has the ability to put such a jade product in their home, it would be the ultimate low-key luxury.

Moreover, this Buddha...

He looked carefully again, and suddenly took a deep breath, almost dropping the Buddha to the ground.

The Yan family mentioned a small Jade Buddha in the Jiangdu County Governor's Mansion before, why does this one look so much like the one the Yan family said? !

That young master brother, does it have anything to do with the official family!

"Hey, it's amazing, it's really amazing, come here, hurry up and call the second lady over." The man's eyes lit up, as if he was glued to the little Buddha, he waved his hands and asked the servants to call Baiqiao.

Soon, a slender figure came in from the backyard and smiled slightly.

"Father."

Bai Yifeng was stunned, and turned his head to look, "Ah Qing? Why is it you? Where's Aqiao?"

Bai Qing didn't answer his question directly. After entering the teahouse, she immediately looked at the Jade Buddha, her pupils shrinking slightly.

"Ah Qing?"

"Ah," Bai Qing came back to her senses, paused for a moment before smiling softly, "Father is looking for Aqiao because of a son who came to Jiangdu to buy food?"

"How do you know?" The man frowned slightly, carefully put the Jade Buddha back into the box reluctantly, and beckoned Bai Qing to sit down, "Did you hear that just outside?"

Bai Qing pursed her thin lips, seemingly hesitant, and finally raised her eyes and said, "My daughter only heard the last few sentences, but my daughter feels a lot of doubts about this matter."

Bai Qing's face was solemn, and Bai Yifeng calmed down a little after the enthusiasm, and motioned for Bai Qing to continue, but Bai Qing seemed to hesitate even more.

Bai Yifeng had a bad feeling in his heart, thinking of his own second young lady who was, to put it bluntly, uneducated, and suddenly realized:

It would be good if Bai Qiao didn't cause trouble, how could he have the ability to solve the urgent needs of those people?

"What happened?" he asked in a deep voice.

But Bai Qing's vermilion lips opened and closed a few times, but in the end she still refused to speak, and only said: "I promise third brother to keep the secret, father, why don't you ask third brother directly."

Bai Yifeng's expression changed immediately, and he asked Bai Xiao to confess that he was keeping the secret, maybe Bai Qiao really did something ridiculous again!

"Come here, take care of the second young lady and don't let her out of the yard, and then call the third young master."

"Yes!"

The servant went out, and Bai Qing also stood up, wondering: "Then the daughter is not staying here anymore. Although the daughter didn't say what it was, but the third brother saw me, and he might suspect that I was talking nonsense in front of my father." what."

"He dares!" Bai Yifeng blew on his beard.

"Father, the relationship between my third brother and I finally got better, so don't make trouble." Bai Qing's face was so soft that it made people feel pitiful.

Bai Yifeng sighed heavily, and waved her back to the backyard.

Bai Qing walked to the door of the teahouse, but turned her head again, gave a low blessing, and said softly: "Father, don't be impatient, talk to third brother carefully, after all..."

"It's not necessarily a bad thing."

The woman stood in front of the threshold against the light, unable to see her expression clearly, but these words really touched Bai Yifeng's heart.

If his guess is correct, the person Bai Qiao bumped into and provoked probably has an official background behind him, even if he is not a child of an official, he must have a lot of relationship with him.

And such a person suddenly came to the door and said that the most incompetent daughter of his Bai family had helped the other party a lot. It sounded like he fell in love with Baiqiao and wanted to find an excuse to go home.

The originally vague thoughts were vaguely pointed out by Bai Qing, and gradually became clear.

He has been thinking about marrying Bai Qing to a family of nobles all these years. If he can take advantage of this, maybe it is an opportunity?

For example, cheating?
