The shopkeeper immediately nodded and asked the waiter to give Shen Ningning a silver note.

Then she asked: "Will the Wutou account this time be settled next time?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "Yes, I will take it to the palace later. After I receive the money from the palace, I can split it half with the young lady."

Shen Ningning's face was round and white, with a curious look on her face.

"Who are you trying to save? Why do you keep eating this aconite?"

"Except for the emperor, he is the most noble nobleman in the world," the shopkeeper chuckled: "Aconitum is a life-saving medicine for noblemen, but young lady, you can't talk nonsense outside, you have to keep it a secret."

Shen Ningning nodded clearly, raised her little finger to her lips, and made a "shush" gesture.

"I understand." She said sweetly: "Then I hope you will get better soon after eating the aconite I gave you!"

The shopkeeper smiled and shook his head while packing up the books.

"It's difficult! The noble man's illness is very strange. I heard that his illness will not be cured unless the drought disappears."

Is there such a strange thing?

Shen Ningning couldn't figure out the relationship between drought and illness.

She thought for a while, and her little head was about to explode.

Simply don’t think about it anymore.

All she can do is provide medicinal materials.

So I made an agreement with the shopkeeper: "Six days later, you still come to Langshan to pick me up."

Shen Ningning left the store.

She walked to the deserted corner and took out the two hundred taels that Mrs. Meng had given her earlier.

Afterwards, he went straight to the jade shop.

Before she came, she made up her mind to buy a piece of jade today and feed it to her fairyland.

She still had four hundred and eighty taels left from the money she spent last time, which she left untouched in the fairyland.

The money for selling the aconite medicine this time, plus what Mrs. Meng gave me, was nearly one thousand taels.

The little guy believes that he can buy a good piece of jade.

She entered the jade shop and was immediately noticed by the shopkeeper.

Shen Ningningsheng has red lips, white teeth, and delicate skin. She is wearing light green clothes today, with a small lotus flower tied on her two little balls on her head.

Her bright eyes kept scanning the various kinds of jade on the shelf.

"Little girl, you're here again." The shopkeeper recognized her.

It's really because this little guy of four or five years old has a handsome appearance and looks like a child from a wealthy family.

But every time she came alone, without a servant.

Shen Ningning's bright eyes were clean and clear.

She stood up on tiptoes and took the initiative to put the banknotes and two hundred taels of silver on the counter.

"Uncle shopkeeper, I want to buy jade. If you think it's worth the price, pick a good piece for me."

His tone was as calm as buying a handful of onions.

When Shen Ningning took out nearly a thousand taels of silver, the shopkeeper was stunned.

He counted the silver number, more than nine hundred taels!

Sure enough, he is a child from a wealthy family!

The shopkeeper was still thinking of teasing Shen Ningning just now, but now he no longer dared to fool Shen Ningning.

He quickly took out a palm-sized piece of violet jade.

"This piece of pink and purple is the most suitable in the same price range. If you like it, little miss, you can tie it into a hairpin, jade pendant, or fan pendant."

Shen Ningning didn't understand, so she held it in her little hand and observed it.

Her skin was crystal clear and white, and the purple jade stone actually looked larger and brighter in her palm.

The little guy looked at it and said, "That's it. No need to polish it. I'll just take it away."

The shopkeeper quickly took out the box and said, "Shall we take it away with you? Be careful if it falls on the road."

Shen Ningning shook her head, feeling troubled.

She just grabbed it in her hand and said, "That's good."

Anyway, I will put it into the fairyland later.

As soon as he reached the door, the shopkeeper chased him out again: "Little miss, please wait."

"The price of this jade is nine hundred taels. You paid an extra twenty taels and I will give it back to you." He handed over the silver.

After Shen Ningning took it away, she put it into the purse on her waist.

Then he waved his little hand holding the jade, said goodbye, and left happily.

Looking at her back, the shopkeeper was afraid that such an expensive jade would fall and break.

Children from rich families are just different.

In her eyes, a good jade is like an ordinary stone.

Sitting on the carriage home, Shen Ningning entered the fairyland for the first time and placed the jade she bought on a shelf.

Then she left Wonderland.

I just wait to go in later to see if Jade will really be eaten by the fairyland.

As soon as he returned home, the Black Wolf King and his pack of wolves immediately surrounded him.

They howled.

Shen Ningning was confused when she heard this: "What? Who do you think is coming?"

The wolves all wanted to answer.

The Black Wolf King roared, and the wolves fell into silence.

Finally, the Black Wolf King roared twice.

Only then did Shen Ningning understand.

"Are you saying that the little monkey who came to steal food before is now bringing me food again?"

The Black Wolf King nodded back and forth.

Shen Ningning ran back to her room.

Her desk was next to the open window, and on the sill there stood a beautiful sapphire.

"Wow... the things the little monkey gave you this time are so beautiful." Shen Ningning's eyes widened in shock.

Since the last time she let the wolves keep the monkey in their mouth.

This little monkey would put something on Shen Ningning's window sill every morning.

Last time it was a ruby ​​ring, but this time it was a complete sapphire, about the size of a thumb.

"Squeak..." When the little monkey saw that she was back, he dared to jump in from the outside, sat on the window sill, and carefully looked at the wolves around Shen Ningning.

The little guy reached out and touched the monkey's head: "Where did you get these things from?"

The little monkey squeaked back and forth and pointed outside, but Shen Ningning couldn't understand what it said.

I can only take it as a good intention and put the things away.

Then, Shen Ningning took out a red fruit and handed it over.

The little monkey immediately took it, jumped out of the window holding the fruit, and disappeared.

The Black Wolf King let out a low growl.

It is complaining that this monkey is smart and greedy.

Every time I exchange something for a mouthful of food, I'm afraid I'll have to rely on her.

Shen Ningning smiled sweetly, threw herself on the Black Wolf King and hugged him.

"Okay Wolf Wolf, the little monkey is just hungry and doesn't want much. If you see it in the future, don't be harsh to it."

The Black Wolf King licked Shen Ningning's little hand to express his agreement.

The little guy went to see his grandma and found her busy in the kitchen.

Wolf Four and three wolves followed Grandma Qin, waiting to be fed.

"Grandma, what are you busy with?"

"Ning Ning is back. You have to go to class in a few days. The weather is hot. I will make you some cool cakes and take them to eat with your classmates."

The chubby Wolf Si ran over and rubbed Shen Ningning before returning to Grandma Qin's side.

It sat upright on the ground and whined twice from time to time.

Grandma Qin was amused by it: "You greedy wolf, I just gave you four egg yolks, haven't you had enough?"

With that said, Grandma Qin picked up the freshly made green cake and handed it to Wolf Si's nose for him to smell.

Wolf Si smelled it with joy and found that it was not meat, and turned his face away silently.

The Black Wolf King poked his head in at the kitchen door and roared.

It disliked Mr. Wolf Si for following Grandma Qin around asking for food.

After being scolded, Lang Si ran past Shen Ningning in despair and ran along the crack in the door.

I was afraid that if I were any later, I would be beaten up by the Black Wolf King.

When Shen Ningning saw this, she held her belly and giggled.

"I will go to Wonderland to get some meat and put it in the cellar. Grandma and the wolves can eat it slowly."

After that, she slipped into Wonderland.

As soon as she entered, the scene in front of her made Shen Ningning freeze in place in surprise.

I saw several readers saying that Yuan Wai Lang was not an official. In fact, in ancient times, Yuan Wai Lang was really an official, but most of them donated their money to become officials and had no real power. They were usually local gentry.

[Quoted from Du Niang’s explanation]: Yuanwailang is one of the official positions in ancient China. It originally refers to the Lang officer who is located outside the forehead. In the Sui Dynasty, each of the twenty-four departments of the Shangshu Province appointed a Yuanwailang, who was the secondary official of each department, equivalent to the deputy director, and the doctor was the chief director.

By the way, I wish all book fans a happy Dragon Boat Festival. Do you like sweet or salty rice dumplings? Don’t forget to vote for Ning Ning, today is the last day of Ning Ning’s PK!
