Such a set of exquisite and heavy tables and chairs costs at least dozens of taels of silver.

"What do you think is the best way to put it? Should I ask them to put it on now?" Master Cen pointed to the yamen servant outside.

Xiao Luoyi hesitated.

She didn't really want it: it wasn't like she couldn't afford it.

But the problem now is: the prefect seems to be targeting his family.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t have just sent him back in the morning and then come back at noon, bringing so many things.

If he doesn't accept it, will it make them more convinced that his family is guilty of committing crimes? !

Oh no, it's murder with a guilty conscience.

Xiao Luoyi, who had a guilty conscience for murder, did not agree immediately, but looked at Cen Wenjin solemnly: "You cherish it so much, just to combine the horoscopes? Then you brought the horoscopes with you when you went back, right?"

Cen Wenjin explained with a smile: "The one my magistrate wants to marry is the eldest son who is the direct descendant. Madam, what I mean is that the horoscope will not leave the house easily."

"No, Madam asked me to prepare some small gifts. One is to apologize for bumping into Madam Xiao before, and on the other hand, she also wants to invite Madam Xiao to go to Yongzhou Mansion."

Xiao Luoyi looked at Chen Huaijin, with a look for help in his eyes: Sir, should I agree?

Chen Huaijin, an expert in art, was bold and nodded slightly: It's okay to agree, my husband can protect you.

So Xiao Luoyi nodded: "Okay, I'll clean up later and leave after eating..."

Chen Huaijin drove the car, Xiao Luoyi sat in the car, and Wenxing Taoist Master sat on the shaft.

When the three of them went out, Mrs. Ge asked: "Master Chen, are you coming back for dinner?"

Xiao Luoyi pointed to the room with the door closed: "If you don't come back for dinner in the afternoon, you can just cook for the old Taoist priest."

Mrs. Ge agreed and didn't ask a single question from beginning to end, and her eyes honestly didn't look around.

The magistrate's yamen is connected to a large courtyard at the back. The courtyard has a door open from the other side to facilitate the entry and exit of the servants and family members of the mansion.

Chen Huaijin's carriage stopped at the gate of the courtyard.

A woman stepped forward to lead the way and asked Chen Huaijin and Taoist Wenxing to go to the front yard to talk. However, Taoist Wenxing stepped forward and said, "Ms. Xiao is someone I respect, and I need to accompany her the whole time."

The mother-in-law saw Taoist Master Wenxing and immediately agreed with a smile, but asked Chen Huaijin to wait in the front yard.

A commoner was not valued at all, so it was normal for him not to be allowed into the backyard. Chen Huaijin winked at Taoist Wenxing and went to the front yard.

Xiao Luoyi and Taoist Wenxing were led to the flower hall in the backyard.

Before anyone entered, they heard bursts of talking and chuckles inside.

"I don't know what that woman looks like..." As soon as a delicate female voice spoke, Xiao Luoyi and Taoist Wenxing walked in.

The scene fell silent for a moment, and everyone looked over.

As the heir to Xuanmen, Xiao Luoyi had seen all the scenes that attracted much attention. She felt no pressure from the gaze of the woman in the back house, so she walked in calmly.

"Mrs. Qizhen, this is Mrs. Xiao." The mother-in-law introduced.

Xiao Luoyi bowed his hands to the Jinxiu woman sitting above him and said, "I've met Madam." His attitude was neither humble nor overbearing.Wenxing Taoist Master was half a step behind Xiao Luoyi, and he also raised his hands and said with a smile: "I have met Madam."

The prefect's wife, Meng Shuzhi, glanced at the two of them in slight surprise: When the previous master sent the message, he said that Master Wenxing was probably fascinated by Madam Xiao's beauty, and asked her to be more polite.

But Taoist Wenxing was half a step behind Xiao Luoyi. This was the attitude of a younger generation towards their elders. How could it be that it meant the admiration of a young man?
But Mrs. Meng was very polite: "Mrs. Xiao, please sit down quickly and serve tea..."

Xiao Luoyi sat down and looked at the young ladies and ladies present as if they were not aware of it. He just lowered his eyes and drank tea, calmly and calmly.

Mrs. Meng waited for Xiao Luoyi to take a few sips of tea, and then pointed to the female family members in the room: "I heard that Madam Xiao is proficient in Bagua fortune telling and is good at Feng Shui fortune telling. I wonder if I can do a facial reading for these ladies in my house."

Xiao Luoyi understood instantly: This is an exam!
She glanced around briefly, couldn't help but laugh, and spoke softly and casually.

"Ma'am, you are joking. The concubines in your mansion are also among them. Some of them have had miscarriages and injuries. If you call them all the ladies of the mansion, will it affect the reputation of the mansion?"

"You! What are you talking about?" Mrs. Meng shouted in shock.

Xiao Luoyi didn't look at anyone else, only looking at Mrs. Meng, her eyes as bright as stars: "Did I say something wrong? Madam knows what she is thinking, and so do everyone here."

A thin and beautiful woman asked in a trembling voice: "Ms. Xiao, who among you do you think has killed someone?"

Xiao Luoyi glanced at her and saw that it was one of the people who had slipped across the tire. Then he looked at Mrs. Meng: "Madam, do you want me to say something?"

Mrs. Meng's face darkened: "Ms. Qiao, do you still have any rules?"

The beautiful woman had tears in her eyelashes. She glanced at Mrs. Meng, then suddenly lowered her eyes and stood up: "I suddenly feel unwell, so I have to leave first."

Everyone was silent and watched Aunt Qiao leave, then looked at Xiao Luoyi and Mrs. Meng.

But at this moment, everyone looked at Xiao Luoyi with a bit of fear in their eyes.

Did this woman really see these things in just the first meeting? !
Mrs. Meng calmed down and felt that Xiao Luoyi must have made a wild guess.

There are a lot of secrets in a big house, and no one is immune to this kind of thing. She didn't say who it was. She thought that Qiao was deceived.

Mrs. Meng just pretended that what just happened had not happened. She took a sip of tea to suppress the panic in her heart and then said: "The people in this room are all concubines and young ladies of my Peng Mansion. Please take a look at it, Mrs. Xiao." , how they look.”

Xiao Luoyi nodded and walked to the first person next to him. When he saw a round face and big clear eyes, he couldn't help but smile.

"This young lady suffered two major disasters when she was a child, but she was protected by noble people. Therefore, she had no danger. Although there were ups and downs in the past six months, she was able to have noble people to help her. She was able to marry into a high family, have a son, and have a smooth life. He is a blessed one.”

The little girl who was said to be lucky was only in her teens. She grinned when she heard this and said in a childish voice: "Jia Ying, thank you Madam Xiao for your kind words."

Everyone looked at the little girl who was said to be lucky, with envy in their eyes.

But some people were not convinced and snorted.

Because she was born with a bit of innocence and always grinned, Peng Jiaying was kept in front of the old lady like a pet for fun. None of her brothers and sisters in the family looked down upon her.

Can Peng Jiaying marry a high-ranking family?Which high-ranking family would be blind? !
It seems that Mrs. Xiao's ability to meet people is not very good.

Xiao Luoyi walked towards the second one.

The second woman looked to be only eleven or twelve years old. Seeing Xiao Luoyi looking at her, she immediately raised her chest slightly and looked at Xiao Luoyi expectantly.

Xiao Luoyi glanced at her, and his tone was as soft as ever: "This young lady dares to think and do, and you can get the results you want in front of you. However, the cycle of cause and effect will not bring good retribution. It will be difficult for your heirs in the future." (End of Chapter)
