  Chapter 785 Punishing Si Kongjing (2)

  The woman said softly, "I made my cousin worry."

"I've been bitten by a snake for ten years and I'm afraid of well ropes, because I'm afraid you will go around the mass grave again! It's not a good place!" Cui's mother scolded her, gave the driver a few copper coins, and let the driver go . The woman hurriedly took out the money from her purse, "How can I let my cousin spend money?"

  Cui's mother stuffed her money back: "Since you call me cousin, don't be polite to me! How is it, is your daughter's illness better? Huichuntang is right?"

  The woman said with a hint of joy: "Yes, the wounds have healed. It is said that after three or two reexaminations, I will be able to return to my hometown. It is amazing."

"That's right! It doesn't matter who introduced it? Can I find the best one for you?" Mother Cui led the two of them into the door, "The princess mansion where I am is all the medical girls from Huichun Hall. It’s for the princess! Don’t worry about going back, just stay a few more days! When my daughter recovers from illness, I’ll take you for a walk in the capital, it’s so much fun!”

   "Thank you, cousin."

   "Don't thank me, thank you. I've prepared lunch. It's on the table. You can eat it yourself. Treat yourself as your own family. Don't be polite to me! I'm going to the old lady's place first, the Guo family is very busy recently!"

   Mother Cui said, and left the house.

  …

  Ning Yue fought at the gynecology department for a while, and then went upstairs when she was almost busy.

  The murder of the little beggar was slow to find witnesses, and the limelight gradually passed away. Geng Zhong went back to Ning Yue's side to handle errands.

  Ning Yue is planning to rebuild a village with poor harvests and grow medicine instead. She hired some experienced people and asked Geng Zhong to send them there.

   "This is their address, you pick them up one by one, and find a suitable day to leave."

   "Yes." Geng Zhongzhi went downstairs with the list.

  Diagonally opposite Huichun Hall, in a jewelry store, Sikong Jing was choosing jewelry, and Sikong Cheng was by his side.

  The jewelry in this store is very beautiful, and it is one of the best in the whole capital. It is said that their designer is a retired Shang Palace, who improves the most classic styles in the palace and then sells them. Recently, they launched a purple gold series, which is extremely popular. So sought after, the price is of course high.

  Si Kongjing casually picked up a violet nobile, and asked the maid, "How much is this?"

  The maid replied: "Five hundred taels."

  A hollow hairpin, not heavy, is actually worth five hundred taels of silver!

  Si Kongjing pursed her lips, and picked up another pair of earrings: "What about this one?"

   "Six hundred taels."

   More expensive than a nobile!

  Si Kongjing asked the price of a few more pieces of jewelry, almost more than one thousand taels. According to her current financial situation, she couldn't afford it at all, but she really wanted it—

  The eyeballs flickered, and while the maid turned to entertain others, she picked up the pair of earrings and put them in her purse.

  Glanced at Sikong Cheng, Sikong Cheng has always been distracted recently, so he didn't notice her small movements.

  She secretly hooked the corners of her lips, took Sikong Cheng's arm and walked out of the jewelry store. Just as she stepped over the threshold, she heard the maid exclaim: "Ah! Those pair of purple gold earrings are gone!"

  The boss hurriedly stood up and shouted to the door: "Stop! Stop for me!"

   Several customers who stepped out of the threshold with Si Kongjing successively stopped when they heard the boss's words, and looked into the shop.

  Si Kong calmed down, and also turned around with a calm expression on his face.

  The boss looked at them, then at the screaming maid, and asked, "Who was near the earring just now?"
