C175 (2/2)
”Oh.” Fourth Young Master laughed: ”It's the novelty I just bought a few days ago. I heard that as long as you put it to your heart, you would know if this person is lying or telling the truth.”
”There is such a strange thing in this world?” Yang Xilin held the teacup and drank a mouthful of hot tea to calm his shock, ”This country's uncle has never heard of such a thing despite having been in the Dijing for so many years.”
After he finished speaking, his gaze landed on Wen Jiu.
Wen Jiu sat down at the side and said with a smile: ”My Fourth Brother travels the kingdoms and has seen many strange things. Since he said it like this, he must have something like this.”
She also did not know what the Fourth Young Master wanted to do.
After all, it would not be as troublesome as Royal Uncle Yang coming to the Shangguan Residence to ask for marriage, and when this matchmaker sat in the hall, it would be unknown what the news would be like outside.
The few of them chatted.
Not long later.
Wealth came back with the Glass Mirror.
Xie Wanjin stood up and took the glass mirror with gold and jade inlaid in it, ”royal uncle, please enter.”
”What are you trying to do?” Yang Xilin was a little confused by his actions. Just as he took two steps forward, the Fourth Young Master dragged him into the sunlight and shined the Glass Mirror on his chest.
Xie Wanjin said with a stern face: ”royal uncle, you said just now that you are sincere to my Jiu, do you dare to say these words again?”
Why not?” Yang Xi Lin cleared his throat, ”To Lady Wen, that's true...” ”AHH!” So hot! ”What, what's going on?
The faint golden sunlight shone onto the courtyard, and gathered into a dot through the glass mirror. It fell onto Yang Xilin's chest, causing his clothes to instantly turn yellow and blaze.
The left and right attendants hurriedly went forward and beat them.
The Countess from the Residence of State had an extremely ugly expression on her face as she prepared to speak.
”My Glass Mirror only burns people who lie!” Xie Wanjin retreated a few steps, and said in surprise: ”royal uncle, don't you have a heaven and earth witness?”
Yang Xilin, ”...”
The old mistress of the Duke of An's estate, ”…”
Fourth Young Master casually handed over the Glass Mirror to Wen Jiu, and instructed him very seriously: ”Jiu, take this treasure. ”If you ever see another person full of nonsense swindling you, use this to test him.”
Wen Jiu forced himself not to laugh, and nodded: ”Thank you, Fourth Brother.”
”There's no need to be polite.” Xie Wanjin sat down amidst the Third Madame Xie's praises and took the tea offered by the maid, instructing the people, ”What are you all standing around for, quickly bring the royal uncle to change, what are you all doing going out like this for? Those who do not know about it would think that our General's Mansion would use violence against the royal uncle. ”
Everyone answered ”Yes” in unison.
Yang Xilin took two steps back and said, ”No need.”
royal uncle had yet to recover from the shock of being burnt like this, and stubbornly said: ”This country's uncle is indeed sincere to Miss Wen, it's definitely because of your Glazed Glass Mirror that wasn't accurate!”
Xie Wanjin let out a light sigh, and said to Wen Jiu in a low voice: ”Jiu, what rotten peach blossom did you confess to? ”He's quite stubborn.”
Wen Jiu said helplessly: ”I really don't know …”
Fourth Young Master looked at her with shining eyes.
Wen Jiu thought for a while, then said, ”I've only seen him a few times at Yongle Workshop, oh … ”He didn't bring any money last time when he wanted to get a girl. I was the one who gave it to him.”
Xie Wanjin said with a face full of pain, ”... It's all caused by the silver. ”
While the two of them were talking, footsteps hurriedly came from outside the hall.
The maid reported back, ”Third Young Master is back!”
