As the crowd watched with curiosity and anticipation, Cao Ya stretched out her small hands, which were far more plump and thin than those of any girl of her age that Wei Changying had ever seen, and clumsily unrolled the oil paper.

Because of the age has been brittle oil paper with her movements sparse and crumbly confetti fell on the Ming Pei Hall in the value of a thousand dollars pinch gold silk brocade rug.

But at the moment no one has the heart to pay attention to this point, all eyes are watching the last layer of greaseproof paper fall ......

"What is it?"

After seeing clearly what was in the oil paper, all the people in the hall were dumbfounded!

"Hiss ......" Wei Chang Ying narrowed his eyes slightly, leaned back, looked coldly at Mu Chunmian, and said, "Burgomaster Mu, together, you two, mother and daughter, are specially here to amuse us!"

When she said so, she also coldly swept her eyes at Shen Lun - Shen Lun immediately sweated like rain!

It's just that even he was shocked into speechlessness by what was finally revealed in the oil paper, and at this moment, although he was terrified that he had offended the young lady by his incompetence, he didn't know how to explain-

On top of the greaseproof paper was a rag.

Not only rags, but also stained with a lot of God knows whether it is blood stains or oil or any other dirt things, because the eons are too long, has long been unable to see the original color of the cloth, and even after opening it, there is no odor ...... but no matter what, it is a piece of rags! And it is thrown in the corner, afraid of beggars are lazy to pick up the kind of ......

It's not big, it's smaller than Cao Ya's palm. If it wasn't for Wei Chang Ying and Duanmu Xinmiao's good eyesight, they would have had to be brought to the front to look at it!

Wei Chang Ying was annoyed and coldly questioned, "Taking a piece of rags and asking for 3,000 taels of gold, is it possible that the Cao Family Castle has been doing private business with no capital for so long that even I, Shen, dare to blackmail them?!"

As soon as she spoke, the hall was silent. However, after a breath of silence, someone was uninterested - Cao Ya's eyes widened and she said in a milky voice, "It's not just rags, it's also needles!" As she spoke, she naturally stepped forward and held up the oil paper for Wei Changying to see.

Wei Chang Ying frowned and looked down ...... She looked for a long time before she found that the piece of dirty no words on the rags, indeed put a thin needle, although the needle sucked, but it is quite long, the color is dull, but also can not see what material ...... next to the Duanmu Xinmiao measured for a moment. Ya said, "This is the needle used for acupuncture ...... is a bone needle?"

Underneath, Mu Chunmian respectfully said, "Miss Duanmu has good eyesight, this is indeed a bone needle."

Duanmu Xinmiao was instantly moved and said, "This looks like it should just be made of unusual animal bones, the toughness and sturdiness are far inferior to the silver or gold needles normally used! In the end, uncle ancestor is uncle ancestor, actually able to use such a bone needle to administer needles!"

Wei Changying paused and reminded her, "Is it really an ordinary bone needle? Is it worth 3,000 taels of gold?"

The topic turned back to the gold on the head - only to hear the wood spring sleep leisurely said: "young lady and Miss Duanmu please do not be angry, and allow the little woman to explain the cause of the three thousand taels of gold: when left these things humane, this piece of rags, is the death of his brother, he did not have time to collect the coffin, can only be cut away a piece of the lapel as a Memorial. This bone needle, but also not his, but his sister in order to save his nephew, especially with people to ask to grind into ...... these things for the next person may be worthless, but for the quarter of the Divine Doctor or Ms. Duanmu, 3,000 taels of gold is by no means much - because the quarter of the family died in the western Liang All of the people who died in Western Liang were buried in the same place as the stray criminals who died violently over the years, and there were no separate tombstones. It's impossible to get them back after all these years!"

Duanmu Xinmiao immediately changed color and said, "Relics? The relics of my master's family members?"

Mu Chunmian nodded, "Not bad! Although we can't find the bones, yet with these things, we can also build a clothes grave, can't we?"

"How many of these do you have?" Duanmu Xinmiao subconsciously asked.

Before Mu Chunmian answered, Wei Changying, who was watching with cold eyes, suddenly asked, "According to what you said, Ji Gu has indeed passed away? You didn't lie to me about the person Shen asked about a dozen years ago?"

Wood Chunmian affirmed, "As the young lady said ...... The old men in the fortress all said so, moreover, the people of your family are also personally confirmed."

"Then why didn't you talk about these relics more than ten years ago?" Wei Chang Ying asked with a cold smile!

Being reminded by her, Duanmu Xinmiao also woke up and clapped her hands, "Not bad! Since it's a relic left by that master uncle of mine, and there are also things of my master's other relatives ...... Why didn't you guys mention it back then?"

Mu Chunmian smiled bitterly and said, "Three thousand taels of gold, even the young lady and Miss Duanmu of such status think it's too much, not to mention these countryside pariahs like us? At that time it was the last previous fortress owner was there, just as a joke to listen to, naturally do not dare to mention it before the Shen family follow."

"Why do you dare to mention it again now?" Wei Chang Ying asked her with narrowed eyes, his gaze sweeping over Cao Ya, who was still holding the oil paper with the contents of the oil paper, taking advantage of the fact that Fang had taken a few steps closer so that she could better survey the coral bead strings at her temples, and said indifferently, "And you've brought your only biological flesh and blood with you! Aren't you afraid that such a ridiculous request will enrage us, and it won't be good for both of you, mother and daughter?"

Wood spring sleep heard but wryly smiled, slightly raised his head and said: "One is now in the fort all things are lacking, very much in need of this gold; secondly, although ...... little woman is not well-informed, but also listened to a few days ago to the western Liang to seek medical treatment of the fort people's relatives talk about, the little god doctor ... ... is Miss Duanmu, these days, do not hesitate to use thousands of gold body, for me and other populace cheap news of diagnosis and treatment. I thought, "Miss Duanmu is so compassionate, she must also be a person of pure filial piety! Naturally will not not buy!"

"You have a lot of guts." Wei Changying said, "Aren't you afraid that you'll make us feel bad if you ask for so much?"

"Three thousand taels of gold is not a small amount for Young Lady and Miss Duanmu though. It's just that this is because the two nobles are both shrewd and careful people, not willing to waste it for nothing." Mu Chunmian smiled and said, "In reality, with the status of the two nobles, where would they really put such a sum of silver money in their eyes?"

Wei Changying glanced at her and turned his head to ask Duanmu Xinmiao, "Sister?"

"...... Give her three thousand taels of gold!" Duanmu Xinmiao only hesitated briefly before resolutely saying, "Please also ask Third Sister-in-law to advance it for me first! I'll pay it back after I return to the capital ......"

"We're family members, so it's not polite to say we're not returning it." Wei Changying said in a pleasant manner, "Sister Xinmiao, when you helped me and your third brother, we didn't treat you so politely."

The two of them made some excuses, and Wei Changying instructed someone to raise the gold - at the end of the day, he asked Mu Chunmian, "You're just mother and daughter, so I'm afraid it's inconvenient to take the 3,000 taels of gold back. Do you need me to send someone to give it to you?"

When Mu Chunmian heard that she could really get 3,000 taels of gold, she was a bit surprised, but she was not shallow, and her eyes fluctuated for a while and then returned to calm. Now she was very surprised to hear that Wei Changying meant to let them go, so she thought for a while before saying, "Thank you, young lady, but I want this gold for the fort to buy things for ...... Xilang City. all the gold back to Cao Family Fort."

She mused, then tentatively said, "The young lady thought that the gold that would be brought back would not be much. Outside there are still some sons and daughters of the fort who came with them, so I think it is not necessary to labor the young lady's subordinates."

Wei Changying didn't insist and said, "In that case, I'll have someone send you to the door later."

...... When this mother and daughter really left, Duanmu Xinmiao frowned and asked Wei Changying, "Sister-in-law?" She didn't want to let Mu Chunmian go just like that - although a few relics did mean a great deal to Ji Zhaoyi, Ji Zhaoyi had heard about the deaths of those people a long time ago, and the life and death of Ji Ngu was what she was most concerned about.

But when she wanted to ask more questions, Wei Changying stepped on her foot, signaling her not to make a sound. Now that Mu Chunmian and her daughter had left, Duanmu Xinmiao naturally had to ask for clarification.

"Sister, don't worry, I think that Ji Gu is still in the human world eight out of ten. Ji Gu is still alive!" Wei Changying sipped his tea and said lightly.

Although Duanmu Xinmiao guessed that there must be a reason why Wei Changying stepped on her feet and prevented her from talking, she did not expect Wei Changying to give such an answer. But she didn't expect Wei Changying to give such an answer, so she was dumbfounded and almost jumped up, "Really?"

"Eight out of ten . Nine. Eight. Nine!" Wei Chang Ying smiled, "I don't dare to make a guarantee, but this could be great!"

Duanmu Xinmiao asked busily, "Sister-in-law how did you know?!"

"Don't you think that Mu Chunmian's identity is too bold to ask us for three thousand taels of gold based on a relic?" Wei Chang Ying laughed coldly and said, "What because the Cao Family Fort is short of money now, what because she knows that you are the identity of the disciple of the Ji Divine Doctor ...... I'm sure that she has a great affinity with Ji Gu! I'm sure she has a great relationship with Ji Gu, and even if we lose face, we won't really make things difficult for them if she brings up Ji Gu."

Duanmu Xinmiao was surprised, "Then why don't they say it directly? Is it because they are afraid to ask for the 3,000 taels of gold if they say it directly?"

"I don't think it may not be embarrassment." Wei Chang Ying reminded, "If they prove their relationship with Ji Gu and ask you for three thousand taels of gold, will you give it or not?"

"If my master's uncle is really close to me, I will naturally help him!" Duanmu Xinmiao said seriously, "My master is very attached to this uncle! Now that my master is still in Fengzhou and has no time to come over, I naturally have to take good care of him!"

Wei Changying said, "The problem is, I believe in ideas like yours, but Jigu may not!"

Duanmu Xinmiao was stunned when Wei Changying said, "You think that more than ten years ago, my grandmother entrusted Shen's family to look for him in Caojia Fort, so how could she not say that it was because of Dr. Ji that the Wei family was trying to exonerate Ji Gu? It's just that Caojia Fort is a wonderful place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but when it comes to news, it's very closed, isn't it? That time, Ji Gu is ten percent suspected that the Shen family is nonsense, most likely by Deng Guifei's instructions want to kill all! So he utilized the Cao Family Fort to need a highly skilled doctor, and convinced the entire Fort to help him fake the body and the grave!"

She sighed, ''More than ten years ago, he didn't trust the Shen family to find his people, so I think that in these ten years, he must have also been very cautious and careful, living in a deep place in order not to give anyone the chance to find out his identity! Under such circumstances, the news he heard would not be too much, right? So, again found someone inquiring about him, even if this person is you - the only disciple of the seasonal doctor, but the seasonal solid may not be willing to believe ...... After all, the world's big families intermarried with each other in marriage, the world's famous family, who and whose family turn three or four bends climbed a bit of kinship? Ji Ku was once the son of the court judge of the Imperial Hospital, surely know that we are these scholar's in-laws is very much, he may not be assured that you!"

Duanmu Xinmiao understood a little bit, "What does sister-in-law mean, this three thousand taels of gold, is to see my sincerity?"

"That's right." Wei Changying said lightly, "I think that Mu Chunmian must have been instructed by Jigu before she came here, and Jigu must have speculated about our reactions after she asked for 3,000 taels of gold. Otherwise a countryside woman, and then how to have a city, Cao Jia Fort that kind of place, that is, do not pay taxes, decades to save how much family background? She got 3,000 taels of gold all of a sudden actually still be able to sound unmoving, if not already have a complete plan and training for a long time, where can it be done?"

She glanced at Duanmu Xinmiao and said, "When she has bought enough of these three thousand taels of gold to return to Caojia Fort, she will find that we are really willing to spend three thousand taels of gold to buy some rags-like relics. I think that Ji Gu can believe that you really have no ill will towards him - he thinks that he should not be worth 3,000 taels of gold in the eyes of Noble Consort Deng, this price, not the price of the relics, but the price he put on his own life!"

And thoughtfully said, "Cao family fort ...... Cao Ya, wood spring sleep to the fort in the son and son left outside, but specifically bring a small girl in, think will not be no reason. Could it be that the real relationship with Ji Ku is that little girl called Cao Ya? Huh, I should have left Shen Lun to ask, is this Cao Ya sure that she is Mu Chunmian's real daughter?"
