Chapter 555: Is this generation in chaos?

Feng Laoliu and the guards were so regretful that their intestines turned blue.

They are so unjust!

Who knew that the little girl dressed like a country girl would actually be the newly recognized cousin of the General's Mansion, and she would also be the new master of the ghost doctor who had been rumored recently?

The ones who regretted the most were Feng Laoliu and Brother Liu, because they clearly heard the little girl announcing her family name, saying that she was Miss Qiao from Devil's Valley.

But they looked down upon her too much and never thought about the connection between the words "Devil Valley" and "Miss Qiao" and the little village girl in front of them.

Only now do I realize that they were really too arrogant and had offended such a noble person.

I'm afraid the princess won't let them off easily now, and the housekeeper will definitely punish them severely.

I'm afraid that I'll have to shed my skin if I don't die soon, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to fulfill the positions of concierge and guard captain who are easy to earn money for.

Regardless of the servants who were so regretful that they wanted to hit the wall, Princess Ningyang warmly welcomed Qiao Ran into the house.

"Miss Qiao, I've been waiting for your blue water fish until my eyes are full! Come in! Come in! Hey, you don't need to mention it, let the servants bring the fish in!"

Princess Ningyang wanted to reach out to hold Qiao Ran's arm, but after taking one look at the coarse cloth on her body, she retracted her hand in disgust.

"Miss Qiao, you are also the cousin of the General's Mansion and the master of a miracle doctor. You have made so much money selling pills. Logically speaking, you should not be short of money. Why don't you buy yourself some nice and comfortable clothes? Coarse clothes are very harsh and not comfortable at all!"

Seeing Princess Ningyang's disgusted look on her clothes, Qiao Ran chuckled:

"I'm used to it. And when I work, I have to wear coarse clothes so that they don't get damaged, and I don't feel bad if they get dirty or torn. It's hard to work when I wear nice and comfortable clothes, and I worry about getting them dirty when I'm working. Bad and dirty.”

Princess Ningyang, who was pampered in fine clothes, obviously couldn't understand Qiao Ran's thoughts. In desperation, she had no choice but to hold a corner of her sleeve and walk in through the gate.

Butler Luo sent two guards to carry the two barrels of fish in.

Princess Ningyang brought Qiao Ran to the main hall and asked Butler Luo to arrange tea and snacks, but Qiao Ran declined.

She still has to go to Wanlu Academy to pick up her fourth uncle. Today is the day when the academy is closed for bathing. She has to pick up her fourth uncle to go home. She estimates that his fourth uncle should be waiting for her at the entrance of the academy by now.

Princess Ningyang originally wanted to take Qiao Ran and listen to her talk about what happened during the escape and the process of opening up wasteland and farming in Devil's Valley. These were things that she, as the royal princess, had no chance to experience. , so I am very curious.

But seeing that Miss Qiao was still busy, she had no choice but to ask Butler Luo to weigh the fish as soon as possible, then settle the fish payment for Qiao Ran and let her out of the house.

Qiao Ran drove the carriage to Wanlu Academy. As expected, there were already many horse-drawn carriages and ox-carts parked at the entrance of the academy to take the students home to rest.

Qiao Ran saw her fourth uncle standing at the entrance of the academy at a glance. She used her skillful carriage driving skills to pass through the crowded people and cars, and drove her own carriage in.

"Uncle Fourth, here!"

Qiao Ran jumped out of the carriage, holding the reins with one hand, waving with the other and calling to her fourth uncle.

Wearing a student uniform, Qiao Sihai looked even more elegant and handsome, standing out even among the crowded students.

Seeing his niece coming to pick him up, Qiao Sihai walked quickly towards the carriage with a bamboo box in his hand.

"Ranran, thank you for your hard work!"

Qiao Sihai said apologetically.

Qiao Ran stepped forward, took the box and put it on the carriage, while replying: "Fourth uncle, our family doesn't need to be so polite. Fourth uncle has been waiting for a long time, right? I just went to the eldest princess's mansion to deliver two buckets of blue water fish, so come It’s a little late.”

Qiao Sihai hurriedly said: "It doesn't matter, I just came out not long ago."

The two of them were about to get on the carriage and go home, but two people squeezed in from nowhere.

One of them was making a roar, and Qiao Ran felt a little familiar with the sound.

"Brother Qiao, Miss Qiao, wait a minute!"

Qiao Ran turned around and saw a familiar fat man pulling a relatively familiar person through the crowd to the carriage.

"Are you... Mr. Lin? Mr. Fang!"

The visitors were none other than Qiao Sihai's classmates and classmates Lin Haowei and Fang Lisheng. It was unknown where these two people came from.

Lin Haowei laughed cheerfully: "Hahahaha...Long time no see! Miss Qiao, oh no, I should call you cousin. I'm really sorry, I couldn't attend the recognition banquet at the General's Mansion and your hairpin ceremony, and I didn't I’m giving you a gift. Now, this is the gift I prepared, and I’ll give it to you as a replacement.”

Only then did Qiao Ran remember that Lin Haowei was the nephew of her aunt Zheng Lin, so it was reasonable to call herself cousin.

She didn't hesitate and took the gorgeous gift box from Lin Haowei's hand generously: "Thank you, cousin!"

Fang Lisheng also presented a gift box that looked much simpler:

"Miss Qiao, I also heard they said that you just got haircut. This is a gift prepared by our family for you. Thank you for hiring my uncle to be your husband, and thank you for helping my uncle cure his old illness for many years. Our whole family is very grateful to you. Your great kindness will be forever remembered in my heart.”

Qiao Ran wanted to refuse. After all, she had seen the Fang family's family situation with her own eyes, and it was really not that good.

But considering that the gifts given by the Fang family should not be too expensive, and they hired Sun Xiucai to be a teacher in the village and had a lot of repairs, the Fang family's life should be much better.

So she took the gift box: "Thank you, Mr. Fang! Please express my gratitude to Uncle Fang and Aunt Fang for me!"

Lin Haowei couldn't wait to ask: "Cousin, are you going home now? Otherwise, don't be busy going back. I'll treat you to dinner at Juxianlou! My cousin treated me last time, and now I have money. , you can invite cousin and brother Qiao back."

Qiao Ran couldn't help laughing when she heard his title: "Cousin, you call me cousin, and you call me fourth uncle, Brother Qiao? Are the generations in this mess?"

Lin Haowei thought about it, it was true!

He scratched his head and felt a little embarrassed: "Well, I'm used to calling Qiao Tongsheng Brother Qiao, so what should I do? You can't call me Uncle Qiao, right? But you are obviously the same age as me, so you are one generation higher than me. My uncle also called him old, oh, what a headache!"

Qiao Ran didn't care whether he had a headache or not. She looked at Lin Haowei and raised her eyebrows: "My cousin has lost a lot of weight!"

As soon as he mentioned this, Lin Haowei no longer had a headache. He was so excited that he wanted to let everyone in the capital know that he had lost weight.

"Oh, no! It's all thanks to the slimming pills you gave me last time, my cousin. I took one pill a day and really lost twenty pounds! My dad not only restored my pocket money, but also rewarded me with an additional two hundred pounds. Fifty taels! Hey, now I have money! Let’s go, let’s go! My cousin treats you to something delicious! Thank you very much to my cousin for helping me lose weight successfully!”
