BXBX NOVEL Chapter 117 - 117: The People of the Qian Yao Pavilion are Truly as Foolish as Pigs
“Feng Lin Auction House is holding an auction the day after tomorrow? Why haven’t I heard of it?” Lady Wen asked curiously.
The auctions held by the Feng Lin Auction House had always been packed with customers. According to their past practice, if they were going to hold an auction the day after tomorrow, then the news should have been leaked yesterday instead of waiting until now. This was slightly different from the past habits of the auction house.
“I’m not sure about that, but I only found out about the auction when I went out earlier. There shouldn’t be any mistake about it.” Qian Rong smiled and said, “I also heard that this auction is unprecedentedly grand and many people will go to participate.”
“How can we miss such an interesting event? Hurry, let the servants book a VIP room at the Feng Lin Auction House. We three ladies will go and join in the fun the day after tomorrow.” Lady Zhou agreed immediately and held Su Qian’s hand. “Qian’er, since you’ve come back. Your aunt and 1 will definitely take you and the children shopping. If you don’t have any plans today, why don’t we go shopping together?”
How could Su Qian reject Lady Zhou and Lady Wen’s eager gazes? Su Qian nodded without hesitation and agreed, “Alright, let’s call the children and we’ll leave now.”
Lady Zhou and Lady Wen were grinning from car to car. After the three of them brought the children along, they happily went shopping.
In the courtyard where the Su family lived.
No servant was attending in the hall. All the irrelevant people had been chased out, leaving only the Ancestor Su and Su Chcnghua looking excitedly at the elixirs in front of them, along with a woman in a green dress standing before them.
In the white jade medicine bottle on the table, a fifth-grade elixir with elixir veins lay quietly. It was emitting a dazzling and brilliant light like a gem. Su Chcnghua and Ancestor Su looked at each other and smiled.
“As expected of a fifth-tier elixir. This aura and luster are definitely not something that ordinary medicinal elixirs can compare to.” Ancestor Su’s smile was extremely brilliant. He smiled as he looked at Lu Ying in front of him and said, “Lu Ying, you stole the elixir so quickly. It makes me extremely pleased!”
Lu Ying was still young, and when she heard such praise, she was so happy that she wished she could go to the heavens. “Ancestor, you flatter me. This is what I dare to do. Speaking of which, it was only that Shopkeeper Liu Qi’s fault for being too stupid. She didn’t even know how to properly hide a fifth-grade elixir and insisted on putting it in the warehouse. She even let her subordinates take turns guarding it. No wonder I was able to take advantage of the loophole.”
Lu Ying had been paying attention to the movements of the Qian Yao Pavilion all along. When Liu Qi came back from a trip, she had been acting sneakily and even asked people to take turns guarding the warehouse. The maid who was supposed to guard the warehouse yesterday had something to do at home, so she asked Lu Ying to help out for the night. How could Lu Ying be polite? She took the opportunity to enter the warehouse and saw the fifth-grade elixir placed on the altar. She immediately stole it and left Qian Yao Pavilion.
“Hahaha, the people of Qian Yao Pavilion are truly as foolish as pigs. They didn’t even realize that we have planted spies in their place and even let our people successfully steal such a precious elixir. It’s really laughable.” Su Chcnghua became even more pleased with himself. He looked at the fifth-grade elixir as if it was a treasure, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it. “However, the people from Qian Yao Pavilion should have discovered that the elixir was stolen by now. I’m afraid they will suspect Lu Ying. If they come to our door, it will be difficult for us..”
