    Xiao Yi carefully finished eating the lipstick on Nan Baoyi's lips bit by bit.

    The winter sun is warm today.

    The sun shines through the Ruyi patterned window and shines on the Arhat's couch. The dust is flying in the light and shadow. The red plums in the vase by the window are in full bloom.

    Xiao Yi sat cross-legged contentedly, touched the corners of his lips in the light and shadow, and couldn't help but lower his head and chuckle.

    After laughing, he looked at Nan Baoyi.

    Her mouth was red, and even he could tell that it was definitely not the same color as before going to bed.

    He was afraid that Nan Baoyi would find something, so he opened the rosewood brocade box, picked out the box of dotted lips, and imitated the way she looked when dressing up, picking some with his thumb.

    He gently smeared Nan Baoyi's lips.

    But his technique was very unskilled, and he applied it in circles and circles. Not only could it not be applied evenly, but a lot of it was applied to the outside of the lips.

    By the time he finished wiping it off, Nan Baoyi¡¯s lips were filled with blood, like a child who had just finished eating.

    Xiao Yi fell into deep thought.

    For a long time, he pretended that nothing happened and silently put the lipstick back into the wooden box.

    Nan Baoyi woke up an hour later.

    She stretched herself out comfortably, "It's so comfortable to catch up on some sleep! Second brother, should we go to Songheyuan for dinner?"

    As he spoke, he reached out to touch the rosewood box.

    Xiao Yi was marking the map of Shu County when he saw her movements and immediately held down her hand, "What are you going to do?"

    ¡°I need to touch up my makeup.¡±

    Xiao Yi said against his will: "She is very beautiful, no need to touch up makeup."

    "Really?" Nan Baoyi covered her cheeks, her eyes sparkling, "No wonder everyone praises Caiyunjian's rouge and gouache as the best. I've been applying this lipstick for an hour and it hasn't faded yet. It's really worthy of its price!  Second brother, let¡¯s go to Songheyuan for lunch now!¡±

    Xiao Yi hesitated for a moment and followed.

    As I was walking through the verandah, I met a young maid with a strange face coming towards me.

    The little maid looked at Nan Baoyi's bloody red lips and couldn't help but be stunned.

    ¡°Maybe it¡¯s the newly popular lip makeup for ladies, but she doesn¡¯t understand it very well, nor can she appreciate it very much.

    She saluted and said respectfully: "Boss Nan, this slave is from Yulouchun. The master sent this slave to give you a message."

    "What's the message?"

    Nan Baoyi is curious.

    The little maid replied: "Master said that Mr. Nanjing of your mansion paid for a murderer in an attempt to kill you. Master refused because his offer was not enough."

    Nan Baoyi pondered: "As far as I know, Yu Louchun's assassination deal is priced at five thousand taels of silver. Where did he get the silver?"

    "I don't know, slave." The little maid answered truthfully, "But there is news from the market that your father Nan Guang once sent someone to pawn a large mink fur cloak. It was pawned to death for three thousand taels of silver. I don't know Nan Guang.  Is Mr. Jing¡¯s money coming from this?¡±

    Nan Baoyi leaned against the vermillion lacquer railing, looking at the pond in trance.

    She once asked her eldest brother how much money he gave to her father after he returned home.

    The elder brother said it was five thousand taels.

    Five thousand taels of snowflake-patterned silver were not enough for her father to deal with, but he actually wanted to use them as clothes!

    He obviously likes that cloak very much. Unless he has to, he will never pawn it easily. It is the kind of pawn that cannot be redeemed!

    I¡¯m afraid it¡¯s Nan Jing who is asking him for money in different ways.

    In other words, her father probably secretly subsidized Nanjing's eight thousand taels of silver.

    She was wondering why her father didn¡¯t even get a tael of red envelope during the Chinese New Year this year. It turned out that all of it was used to subsidize his good son!

    Xiao Yi played with the money, "Are you angry?"

    "Of course I'm angry, I'm so angry that my heart aches."

    ¡°Brother, can I rub it for you?¡±

    Nan Baoyi looked at him displeased.

    Xiao Yi smiled: "It's just a joke."

    Nan Baoyi felt sad.

    Dad was very kind to Nan Jing. For him, he pawned all his good clothes.

    But how did Nanjing repay him?

    He used the money he pawned to hire a murderer to kill his little daughter

    In this life and past, Nanjing was nothing!

    In his previous life, he took the money his father had saved for ten years to go to Beijing to take the exam, became a Jinshi in high school, and became an editor at the Hanlin Academy.

    Father always praised his son¡¯s potential when meeting everyone, but later he was bullied by the Liu family and kicked out, while NanjingDon't listen and let him fend for himself

    People in Jinguancheng laughed at my father. When they saw him, they asked, where is your promising son?

    Nan Baoyi couldn¡¯t figure it out. Everyone was a scholar, so how could Nan Jing be so disgusted?  !

    The girl clenched her fists tightly, Danfeng's eyes flashed fiercely.

    She won¡¯t make Nanjing¡¯s life easy!

    She said in a deep voice: "We can't just let this matter go"

    She rewarded the little maid with ten taels of silver and said, "Go back and tell your master to ask Nanjing to go to Yulouchun and accept his commission for eight thousand taels of silver."

    No matter what, let¡¯s get the eight thousand taels of silver back from the pit first.

    On the second day of the Lunar New Year, news came from Yulouchun.

    Han Yanliang has taken care of Nanjing and got back all the eight thousand taels of silver notes.

    Han Yanliang is a geese who plucks their feathers, so he took a thousand taels as compensation for his hard work.

    Nan Baoyi put the remaining seven thousand taels into his pocket and did not return it to Nan Guang.

    On the third day of the first lunar month, it was very lively with relatives visiting each other.

    Nan Baoyi was in Songheyuan, playing mahjong cards with a group of elderly people.

    Nanguang is also there.

    He had no money to gamble, so he had to stand behind his mother-in-law and enjoy the pleasure.

    When I was excited, a maid came in a hurry.

    Nan Baoyi knew that she was the maid serving Nan Jing.

    She subconsciously raised her ears.

    The maid whispered: "Third Master, Mr. Nanjing is inviting people to a banquet at the Jinyu Mantang. He said that he doesn't have enough money. Please go over and send some money."

    Nan Baoyi raised his eyebrows.

    Jinyumantang is the most famous restaurant in Jinguan City. Only rich businessmen and powerful people can afford it. The minimum cost of a banquet is several hundred taels of silver.

    Nanjing doesn¡¯t have any skills, but he knows how to choose a place to treat guests to dinner.

    Nan Guang was in a dilemma: "Didn't I give him money a while ago?"

    The maid smiled and said, "Maybe it was a gift for the master, so I gave it away."

    Nanguang is even more difficult.

    He is strapped for cash and can¡¯t afford more money

    Just when he was hesitating whether to ask someone to borrow it, Nan Baoyi said considerately: "Dad, let me go pay the bill for my brother."

    "You?" Nan Guang was surprised.

    He remembered that the relationship between Jiaojiao and Jing'er was very bad.

    Nan Baoyi smiled sweetly: "You often teach us that brothers and sisters should be united and friendly. Now that my brother is in trouble, of course I have to help. Don't worry, I received a lot of lucky money and can help my brother pay the bills."

    Seeing that she was serious, Nan Guang happily agreed.

    The children are in harmony, and it turns out that he manages the family well!

    He Ye followed Nan Baoyi out of Songhe Courtyard and was very puzzled: "Miss, why should we help Nanjing pay the bill? We don't owe him anything!"

    "Help him pay the bill?" Nan Baoyi chuckled, "He has a great idea! Let's go to Jinyu Mantang to watch the fun!"

    The hall is filled with gold and jade, and the seats are elegant.

    Because Yulouchun took over the assassination job, Nanjing was in a good mood and specially invited a dozen classmates to come here for a drink.

    Now, after three rounds of drinking, it is getting lively.

    A classmate patted him on the shoulder and praised: "In terms of fate, our brother Nan's fate is better. Now that you live in Nanfu, you have truly become a rich man. That is the Nanjia, the richest man in Shu County, the Nanjia! The richest man  My grandson is so precious to think about!"

    "Yes, this house is full of gold and jade. I used to only dare to take a look outside, how could I dare to come in to eat, drink and have fun? Today is all thanks to Brother Nan!"

    Others agreed.

    Nanjing listened to their praises reservedly, but glanced out the window from the corner of his eye from time to time.

    He sent someone back to his house to get the money early in the morning. Why hasn¡¯t his father sent someone to bring the money?

    Didn¡¯t you run pretty fast in the past?

    If he doesn¡¯t come back, what will he pay when the bill comes later?
