He went to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and just confronted them in the front hall. An Huaiming now came to her again, and he didn't know what he had in mind.
"not see!"
Out of sight and out of mind, An Ruowan was too lazy to make excuses with the people in his family.
Just after talking to her, the girl outside replied: "The third young master said that he just wanted to have a few words with you, the eldest lady, and it won't waste a lot of time."
An Ruowan frowned and went to push the door open, "Where is he?"
"Outside the courtyard gate."
"I know, go down."
An Ruowan came to the courtyard gate with a small lantern. An Huaiming was standing outside and saw an unnatural expression on her face.
"Are you...are you okay today? Did you get any shock?"
An Ruowan looked at the person in front of him, "Are you here to trick me?"
An Huaiming was a little unhappy at being wronged by An Ruowan, "I was just afraid that you would get hurt, after all, your carriage was hijacked."
"Am I not standing in front of you intact? And the carriage that was hijacked was not the carriage I was riding in."
Seeing that An Huaiming was still about to speak, An Ruowan took the lead and said, "If I were really sold into Zuixiang Tower, would it be so easy for me to escape?"
After saying what she wanted to say, An Ruowan turned to leave, but suddenly stopped and turned to look at An Huaiming, "If I am really sold to Zuixiang Tower, it will be considered as your wishes, right?"
"How can it be?!"
An Huaiming subconsciously retorted, "If this is really the case, I will definitely go to save you!"
An Ruowan was stunned for a moment, as if he had heard some funny joke, "It's getting late at night, so I won't see you off."
Seeing his little sister turning away, An Huaiming felt a dull pain in his heart, feeling that his sister seemed to be getting farther and farther away from him.
Since it was my grandmother's birthday in two days, even if what happened yesterday happened, An Ruowan would still leave the house as usual the next day.
After going to treat Gu Beichen's leg, An Ruowan did not rush back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but took Caihuan to Wei Ruixuan in Nancheng.
Wei Ruixuan in Nancheng sells many rare treasures from the Western Regions.
She remembered that it was around the time of her grandmother's birthday that Wei Ruixuan had an obsidian bracelet, which was accidentally discovered and sold at a high price.
"Dear guest, would you like to take a look inside?"
As soon as An Ruowan got off the carriage with Caihuan, she was greeted by the waiter at the door to come in.
The first floor of Wei Ruixuan is full of common treasures from the Western Regions. An Ruowan looked at them without any interest, "Is this all you have here?"
The waiter noticed that An Ruowan was not dressed like an ordinary person, so he immediately led her to the second floor, "Dear guest, if you want new things, you can go to the second floor to have a look, but the price..."
"It doesn't matter, if you meet what I think of, the price is not a problem."
The collection on the second floor was obviously much more valuable than that downstairs, but An Ruowan didn't see the so-called string of obsidian among them.
"Is there anything your distinguished guest likes?"
An Ruowan's eyes touched the corner of the display cabinet. She was slightly startled and walked forward quickly, "This is..."
Seeing that An Ruowan was attracted by the dark spices in the corner, the waiter quickly introduced her: "This is our shopkeeper's treasure, brought back from the Western Regions."
"The Ningshen Incense can help people sleep peacefully every day, and one piece costs a hundred taels of gold!"
Cai Huan looked at the spices from the side, not believing that the waiter said they were so amazing, "My lady can also make Ningshenxiang. Isn't it a lie for a hundred taels of gold?"
"Caihuan!" An Ruowan stopped her, "I want this piece of incense."
The clerk immediately took out the Ningshen Incense and said, "Okay, I'll wrap it up for you. Please go downstairs to check out."
While checking out downstairs, An Ruowan suddenly noticed the golden toad on the counter and a string of black jade bracelets placed on its head.
With a thud in her heart, she picked up the string of jade stones and felt the cold and warm feeling in her palm.
"Is your guest interested in this bracelet?"
The waiter who had wrapped the Ningshen incense saw An Ruowan being curious about the bracelet and said with the intention of attracting repeat customers: "If you like it, I will give you this bracelet."
"This is a defective product that our shopkeeper found in the Western Region. No one wanted it, so he kept it here. If you like it, I will give it to you. I just hope that you will come to the shop more often in the future."
An Ruowan held the bead string in her hand and raised a smile, "Okay, then I'm welcome."
Before leaving, An Ruowan not only gave the waiter two hundred taels of gold, but also gave him enough money for tip.
The waiter thanked Wei Ruixuan profusely and said that if something good comes to Wei Ruixuan next time, he must let her know first.
After getting on the carriage, Caihuan complained, "Miss, that's a hundred taels of gold. Just buy this piece of broken incense. You can make it yourself. He's clearly trying to cheat money!"
"You silly girl." An Ruowan said with a smile: "That's not some concentrating incense, it's the rare rhinoceros horn incense."
"Rhinoceros horn incense?" Cai Huan was confused, "Is this spice very precious?"
An Ruowan touched the box in her hand, "Rhinoceros horn incense has a strange aroma when burned. It can make people sleep. Even if they are disemboweled in their sleep, the sleeping people will not wake up."
Cai Huan covered her lips in shock, "This... this is too dangerous!"
"It's a good thing for treating illnesses and saving lives. Not everyone can bear the pain of scraping bones to heal injuries."
An Ruowan opened one side of the carriage curtain and took a look outside, "It's still early now, let's eat something outside and then go back."
"Yes, miss."
As soon as they got off the carriage, Caihuan's hand holding An Ruowan suddenly tightened, and she exclaimed in a low voice, "Miss! Do you think those are the second miss and the prince of the Hou family?!"
Hearing this, An Ruowan raised her eyes and saw two people holding arms and walking towards the restaurant.
Although An Zhining was wearing a long curtain hat, An Ruowan recognized her figure immediately. She pulled Caihuan and turned around immediately, "Don't look back!"
After waiting for a while, An Ruowan lowered her voice and said, "Did the two of them go in?"
Caihuan turned around tremblingly, and when she saw that there was no one at the door, she whispered: "Miss, they should have gone in."
"Come on, let's go in too."
Caihuan quickly tried to stop An Ruowan, "Miss, if you are discovered by the second miss, go back and complain to the madam..."
An Ruowan raised her lips and smiled and said: "She is the one who should be afraid of being discovered, not me. Doesn't she still want to marry into the palace and become a princess? She actually hooked up with Mo Wenqing in private. She is really good at it!"
Stepping into the restaurant, An Ruowan looked around downstairs, but didn't see the two of them. She raised her eyes and looked upstairs.
At that time, the waiter came over and said, "You two gentlemen, have something to eat and sit inside."
An Ruowan took out a piece of silver and put it into the waiter's hand, "Just now a woman wearing a curtain hat entered your restaurant. I want to sit at the table next to her. I wonder if you can think of a way?"
The waiter in the shop is well-informed and often encounters this kind of thing. He put the money in his arms and said with a smile on his face, "Dear guest, please come upstairs!"
