Zi'an got into a tantrum when he returned home from Hu Huanxi's place.
The nanny asked, "Princess, what are you so angry about? He was fine when he first left the house."
Zi'an sat down with a stern face and said, "Hu Huanxi used to say that he was very close to me, but today I know that it was all fake."
"How could that be?" the nanny was stunned. "The Hu family's shopkeeper is really close to you."
"What's good?" Zi'an said with a long face: "I just found out today that she gave the princess a white jade Guanyin, but she gave me a big gold bracelet."
"What's so valuable about this white jade Guanyin? It's not even as valuable as this big gold bracelet." The nanny consoled with a smile.
"What do you mean it's worthless? Did you know that this white jade Guanyin was carved by He Yanzi himself? He only carves one piece a year, and Hu Huanxi spent 10,000 taels to buy it from He Yanzi. Well, the princess has business dealings with her, so isn't it normal for her to give it to the princess?"
"Who sent something to me?" Cao Mengde said. Cao Mengde arrived, and saw Zhuangzhuang coming in with Qinzhi and Qionghua.
Zi'an quickly stood up and said awkwardly, "No, I was just talking nonsense."
"I just heard that He Yanzi personally carved a Guanyin and gave it to me. This is totally untrue. I only got a big gold bracelet and a necklace with winding branches. Oh, and a piece of silk."
Zi'an was shocked, "It's not for you? Then who is it for?"
"He Yanzi's white jade is not easy to buy. How do you know that Huanxi bought it?" Zhuangzhuang asked.
"Look, today I went to Dingfenghao, and I heard her maid ask He Yanzi if she wants to order Guanyin this year. She said the carvings this year are very beautiful."
"Maybe it was given to the old lady of the Hu family?" Zhuangzhuang said indifferently.
Zi'an also calmed down his anger, "It's possible. She wouldn't give away such a precious Guanyin casually."
Zhuangzhuang smiled and said, "You are so stingy. It's been so long since the incident happened, and you're still talking about it now. Do you need this Guanyin? If you do, I'll have someone send one to you."
Zi'an said awkwardly, "It's not that I'm missing anything, I just think she's biased."
"Okay, it's a small matter. I have something to ask you today, so please come with me." Zhuangzhuang said.
"What's the matter?" Zi'an asked.
"The carriage said, I'll take you to a place." Zhuangzhuang grabbed her and left.
Qingning Pavilion.
"Did you really hear them say that?" Sun Fang'er took off the white jade Guanyin from her neck and gently rubbed it with her fingers, her expression somewhat distant.
"Yes, the princess said that this Guanyin is very precious." Xiaohong said.
"How noble is he?"
"He said he bought it from someone called He Yan."
"He Yanzi?" Sun Fang'er was startled. "He carved it? His things are really expensive, at least one thousand taels, right?"
"What do you mean by one thousand taels? The princess said it was worth ten thousand taels. If it was only one thousand taels, I'm afraid she wouldn't be so jealous that she would come back and get angry."
"Ten thousand taels?" Sun Fanger stood up suddenly. "So expensive?"
"Isn't it?" Xiao Hong came over, "Tell me, why did the Hu family's shopkeeper give you such a valuable gift?"
Sun Fanger looked at her, her expression gradually turned cold, with a sneer on her lips, "Xiaohong, although you are my aunt's person, you are now serving me, and I am your master, understand?"
Xiao Hong panicked, and quickly took a step back, bowing respectfully, "Miss, please don't misunderstand, I have no intention."
"No best." Sun Fang'er said lightly, "Come on, have a cup of tea. You must be thirsty after talking so much."
Xiao Hong's face changed, and she knelt down suddenly, "Miss, I am loyal to you, and I have no second thoughts."
Sun Fang'er picked up the cup and took a sip slowly, with a hint of sarcasm on her lips, "Are you afraid that I will poison you? If I were to poison you, you wouldn't know it at all. However, I don't poison easily. If you are loyal to me as you said, I would never kill you."
After saying that, he stood up coldly and went out.
Xiaohong was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat. She knew a little about the affairs of Qingning Pavilion and she couldn't afford to offend this Miss Sun.
Sun Fang'er felt really strange. Why did Hu Huanxi give her such a generous gift? To get close to her? But since the Chinese New Year, she has not come to see her. It is obvious that after giving this gift, she did not intend to get any effect. Could it be that she wanted to play the long game to catch a bigger fish
No, she didn't know the value of the white jade at all. Moreover, if Xiaohong hadn't told her today, she would never have known it. If she had approached him with ulterior motives, why didn't she tell him the value of the white jade in advance
Sun Fang'er felt that she couldn't see through Hu Huanxi, just as she couldn't see through Xia Zian.
Xia Zian was very sharp to her, but she was very gentle to others. Did she trust those people? No, she didn't, but if she didn't trust them, why could she pretend to be so gentle and harmless
Moreover, what was so good about her? Why did Murong Jie like her? When she was imprisoned, he went to the cell to spend the night with her despite the bad luck.
If it wasn't like, if it wasn't love, she couldn't say what it was.
But he is obviously a person who doesn't know how to love.
She was extremely confused and thought about all sorts of things in the yard. She decided that she didn't want to wait any longer and wanted to find Hu Huanxi to get things clear.
If Hu Huanxi was lying, she would definitely be able to see through it, and then she could just return the white jade to her.
She didn't believe that Hu Huanxi wanted to be friends with her. No one wanted to be friends with her. Ever since they knew that she knew witchcraft, everyone looked at her with disgust and hatred.
"Back to you!"
A piece of white jade Guanyin was placed in front of Hu Huanxi's table. She took a look at it, raised her head, and saw Sun Fanger's frosty eyes.
If Sun Fang'er had come over with the White Jade Guanyin before Zi'an came to tell her about this big mistake, Hu Huanxi would have been surprised.
But, not anymore.
She gently picked up the white jade Guanyin and stroked it with her fingertips. Oh my God, it was so beautiful. Who wouldn’t love this Guanyin
"I'm sorry, I didn't know you didn't like white jade!" Hu Huanxi said.
Sun Fanger said coldly: "I like it, but I can't accept such a valuable thing."
"Expensive? How is it expensive?" Hu Huanxi was stunned. "It's just a gift."
"I know this Guanyin was carved by He Yanzi, and it cost ten thousand taels of silver." Sun Fang'er looked into her eyes.
Hu Huanxi nodded, "It was carved by Master He Yanzi. As for whether the silver was 10,000 taels, I don't remember exactly."
"What is your intention in giving me such a valuable gift?" Sun Fang'er asked coldly.
Hu Huanxi smiled and subconsciously pushed his nose bridge... Well, without glasses and not nearsighted anymore, he curled his lips and smiled, "Do you suspect that I am using you? But, what can I use? Or, who do I need to use now?"
This question was asked with full of domineering power, which actually made Sun Fanger stunned. Yes, with Hu Huanxi, who else does she need to use today? If she needs money, she has plenty of it, and she is also the richest person in the Great Zhou Dynasty. If she needs power, she has made friends with Murong Jie and the eldest princess. Her position in the capital is almost unshakable. Does she need to use her, an orphan who was driven out of her home
Hu Huanxi sighed softly, "Forget it. I know what you're thinking. You think I'm being too attentive to you for no reason. I'm either a traitor or a thief, right? You really don't need to think so much. It's not that complicated at all. If you don't want this Guanyin, I'll take it back. You don't have to pay attention to me or have any contact with me."
