Chapter 120

Xia Xi had a deep sleep all night.

Qi'er wakes up early in the morning for fear of waking Xia Xi. She doesn't dare to move all the time. Later, when she can't lie down, she quietly gets up and puts on her clothes. She wants to go to the desk to practice calligraphy, but she's afraid that the sound of paper will disturb Xia Xi. She simply takes a book, sits on a chair and slowly turns over it.

The book was sent by the housekeeper himself after Xia Xi left yesterday. He didn't know half of the words, but it didn't prevent him from reading it seriously.

This is what Xia Xi saw when she opened her eyes.

She raised her elbow on one side, leaned her head on it, and watched quietly.

In her last life, when she saw the so-called "child", she kept away from it.

She really does not understand, how can there be so many people, like children, until she came across, with Qi Er, just gradually realized the mood of those people.

Especially Qi'er, such a close child, even if it's not her own, now someone wants to let her go, she will go with that person desperately.

Qi'er looked tired. As soon as she looked up, she saw that Xia Xi was looking at him with her eyes open. She was very happy. She closed the book and put it on the table. Then she went to the bedside, "mother, are you awake? Do you want to get up? I'll get you some water. "

Xia Xi stretched out another hand, rubbed his head, "go, Niang get up."

Qi'er turns around and goes out. Xia Xi gets up and puts on her clothes. She hears the voice of green bamboo in the courtyard, "Qi'er, young master, I'll come."

"No, my mother is up. Go and bring breakfast."

"But..."

"It's OK. My mother doesn't like people to wait on her."

The words sound falls, the door is opened gently, Qi Er is carrying the water basin to come in, the hot gas of the water inside, smoked his small face red.

After dinner, Xia Xi teaches Qi'er a few big characters and asks him to practice in the room. She goes to find the housekeeper.

"Housekeeper, where was the prey yesterday?"

The housekeeper didn't know that she had bet with Fengche, or that she had killed the wild boar. He led her over with a smile and said, "Lady Xia, yesterday, the young master had a good harvest. There were not only one wild boar but also two pheasants. Our young master hasn't hunted so many prey for a long time."

"Is it?"

Xia Xi asked with a smile, her steps were lighter.

"Yes, it's getting colder and colder. There are few prey on the mountain. It's not easy to hunt them. You forget that last time our young master went to the mountain and hunted such a small pheasant

While saying that, the housekeeper was laughing.

Xia Xi also followed with a smile, "think of it, in fact, I thought that you young master could fight two more pheasants, we can all satisfy our hunger."

Seeing that she was happy, the housekeeper was also happy, and the folds on her face opened with a smile. "Thank you, lady Xia, for thinking about us."

The prey was piled up in the kitchen. The housekeeper thought that after Xia Xi went to see it, he thought about how to eat it. But he didn't expect that after Xia Xi saw it, he turned directly out of the kitchen and went back to Lanting courtyard.

Housekeeper

I don't know what medicine Xia Xi sells in the gourd. She shakes her head. She is about to tell someone to report to Feng Che. The guard outside comes in. "Housekeeper, the magistrate of Pingyang comes to see you."

The housekeeper immediately forgot about Xia Xi coming to the kitchen and went to Qinglan hospital to report.

"Let him in!"

The housekeeper welcomed him out and took him to the living room.

As soon as the magistrate of Pingyang came in, he knelt down, and the new white hair on his temples attracted people's attention

Wind Che hand holding a cup of tea, tea curl, emitting heat, the aroma of tea wafting out, it is very fragrant.

Fengche took the lid of the cup, plucked the tea aside, tasted it gracefully, took a sip, another sip, and another sip.

The magistrate's head is going to fall to the ground, and the atmosphere is not dare to come out.

Until the bottom of a glass of water, Fengche closed the lid and put the cup down on the table.

The magistrate trembled all over, and his cold sweat suddenly came out.

Fengche did make a compromise to ask the emperor to withdraw his title. But Fengche died in battle. Fengche was injured and couldn't live to be 22 years old. Even if the emperor wanted to appease the people, he couldn't allow it.

Today, Fengche is still a prince, and his identity is heavier than those princes who only fight for power and profit.

As long as he says a word, his top will be gone.

The body almost crawls on the ground, "the Lord is calm, the Lord is calm."

The wind Che voice is light, have no what mood, "Pingyang mansion says, I how angry have?"

"This..."

The magistrate didn't dare to say it. Although Yu Yi and yuerou knew what they had done, and Fengche knew it, he didn't dare to mention it at the moment. He just said in a trembling voice, "Lord, you are not in good health. Don't be angry because of such a small matter."

If he didn't say that, it was OK. As soon as he said that, Fengche thought of that night, and his breath sank down. He said, "Pingyang mansion is reminding me that my life is not long?"

The soul of the magistrate's fright flew out, "dare not, dare not, do not dare to be humble."

The house quieted down.

The magistrate's whole body was wet, and his body was shaking like chaff.

"Get up."

I don't know how long later, when the magistrate was about to faint, he suddenly heard Feng Che's words. The magistrate immediately felt that the eight generation ancestors of his family had come to light. He even kowtowed to the ground, "thank you, thank you."

He used both hands and feet to get up. Half a silk did not dare to delay any longer. He carefully put the box he had been holding in his hand on the table in front of Fengche. "My Lord, this is 200000 Liang. I was so annoyed by those two things that day. I woke up after I left the hall. Their crimes were really bad and had a bad impact, It caused irreparable harm to Yu Yi's original mate. The humble official felt that 100000 Liang was too little, so he sold the house to the evil girl and collected 200000 Liang to make up for their mistakes. "

"Pingyang mansion is really rich. 200000 taels of silver were collected overnight."

Once Fengche's words came out, the magistrate was scared to "Putong" and knelt down again. He opened his mouth and wanted to explain, but he didn't dare to say them. He banged his head, "please forgive me, please forgive me."

"I'm not interested in you. Pingyang mansion, remember, this case is supervised by my Lord. If one day you dare to take revenge, my Lord will never forgive you."

Magistrate repeatedly kowtow, "I dare not, I dare not."

"Back off."

"Thank you, Lord."

The magistrate knelt down and retreated until he reached the door. He dared to get up and went out in a hurry. His feet were unstable. When he touched the threshold, he almost flew out. Fortunately, the guard he brought helped him quickly,

"Go, go, go, go

The guard didn't dare to neglect him, so he helped him out of the villa. Until he got on the carriage, the magistrate felt alive.

All the way, the guard rushed to the county government.

Before he could speak, the magistrate waved, "needless to say, go and prepare some spacious carriages. As soon as it gets dark, we'll go."

Naturally, the county master knew why he left when it was dark. He ordered him to go down in a hurry and let the carriage be covered a little thicker. No one should see it or hear anything.

The magistrate was beside him. He was very satisfied with what he told him. He made a promise, "Pingyang County, I will write a letter of recommendation after I go back, to ensure that you will be promoted next year."

County master a bow to the end, "thank you, sir."

……

After the magistrate left, Fengche stared at the box for a long time, and then said, "go and call Xia Xi."

Xia Xi, come here.

The wind Che pushes the box to her in front, "Pingyang Prefecture sends, 200000 Liang."

Xia Xi is surprised, pick eyebrow, "so much?"

Wind Che light eyes see to come over, "too much?"

Xia Xi quickly holds the box in her arms, holding tightly, "not too much, not too much."

I'm kidding. She's been pretending to be her grandson since yesterday for the sake of these banknotes. Let alone 200000, even 2 million is not too much for her.

Holding the box, he stood up, full of joy, like a miser, "well, I'll take it back and hide it, so as not to be missed."

Feng Che

Xia Xi's words fell, and she walked away with the box in her arms, fast footed.

Feng Che

Frown slightly, this woman so love money?

Xia Xi steps back to the Orchid Pavilion courtyard in a hurry. When she enters the door, she asks Qi'er to come. She opens the box and takes out the money ticket. Without saying a word, she goes to Qi'er's bosom and says, "hurry up, we'll go home."

Qi'er doesn't know what happened, but Xia Xi's tone is very urgent and doesn't speak. She helps to plug the bank note.

Xia Xi looked carefully, very strict!

Seeing no flaw, he took his hand and said, "let's go home."

Qi'er didn't ask a word. She cleverly followed her and went out of the Orchid Pavilion. Xia Xi went directly to the housekeeper, smiling and in a good mood. "Housekeeper, please prepare a carriage for us. I want to go to the county."

Housekeeper quickly ordered to go down, carriage ready, women on the carriage, Xia Xi told the coachman, "go, hurry up."

The coachman shakes off the whip, and the horse trots all the way to the county town. Xia Xi wanted to find a bank to deposit her money in, but she was afraid that the people in the bank would know her and publicize her. At that time, she would get into trouble. After thinking about it, she asked the coachman to drive the carriage to Mr. Zhang's house.

Mr. Zhang just came out and stopped when he saw the carriage.

Xia Xi two people from the carriage down, a lift eyes saw Zhang Ye, welcome up, to the point, "Zhang Ye, I have something to ask you to help."

Seeing the two of them, Master Zhang's expressionless face had a slight smile. He stepped aside and said, "come in."

Xia Xi's wife went in and went directly to Zhang Ye's house without saying hello to Aunt Zhang.

When she heard something inside, Aunt Zhang, who was about to come out, saw the situation and took back her leg. Turn around, return to sit on the stool, half closed eyes, the smile on the face can't cover.

Xia Xi enters the room. Master Zhang sweeps his room quickly to see that there is nothing dirty and improper. He is secretly relieved. He is about to open his mouth and ask what's the matter. Then he sees Xia Xi stooping down and taking out a stack of banknotes from Qi'er's arms.

Mr. Zhang

The hanging hand tightened.

Qi'er helps. The two women take out all the bank notes. Xia Xi takes them and hands them to Mr. Zhang. "This is the compensation of the Pingyang magistrate, 200000 Liang. I dare not deposit it in the bank, and I'm afraid it will be stolen. Can I let you go first?"

Mr. Zhang

Her eyes fell on a thick stack of bank notes. Then she looked up at Xia Xi. Her lips moved. She wanted to ask her that 200000 Liang was not a small amount. She was sure that she would put it on her own, so she was not afraid of being fooled?

"Why not?"

Seeing his hesitation, Xia Xi asked.

"No

Mr. Zhang immediately denied it and held out his hand.

Xia Xi put the silver note in his hand.

Mr. Zhang did not count. He went to the head of the bed, opened the cupboard, took out a cloth bag from inside, opened it, and put the money in it.

Xia Xi

After putting it away, Mr. Zhang put the bag back in the cupboard, closed it, turned around, opened his mouth and promised, "don't worry, I can't lose a cent."

"Thank you, Mr. Zhang."

"No

Three people out of the house, Xia Xi went to the house to see Aunt Zhang.

Aunt Zhang is happily thinking about what they are saying in the room. She hears the sound of footsteps, but she hasn't responded yet. Xia Xi has already opened the curtain of the door and said with a smile, "aunt."

Aunt Zhang

His eyes fell on his son, and he gouged out his eyes. This worthless thing, people go to your house, and I don't know how to stay a little longer.

Suddenly he was gouged out of his eyes. Mr. Zhang was very innocent. He touched his nose and thought about what he had done wrong.

Aunt Zhang is too lazy to pay attention to him. She answers Xia Xi with a smile. "Xia Xi, you're here."

Then, wave away Zhang Ye, "go, go, go, accompany Qi'er to eat snacks outside, I and Xia Xi say a personal word."

Being despised by his mother, Mr. Zhang didn't dare to say anything. He turned around and wanted to get some snacks.

"No more."

Xia Xi stopped her. She was frightened by Aunt Zhang's enthusiasm last time. This time, if she didn't have to, she didn't want to come, "it's getting late. I should go home. If it's too late, it's not safe on the way."

In winter, it was dark early, and Aunt Zhang didn't force her to stay. She told Master Zhang, "go and see him off." He also glared at him, meaning to let him seize the opportunity.

Mr. Zhang didn't understand. He thought he was upset by his mother. He didn't dare to say anything. He turned and went out first.

Aunt Zhang

How did you have such a wood?

Mr. Zhang had been sent to the place five miles away from Weijia village. He watched the carriage go away and finally became a small black spot, so he turned his horse back.

At the door of the house, Xia Xi got out of the carriage and asked the coachman to go back. "I'll clean up at home today. If I don't go back, you can go back to the villa and tell the housekeeper."

The coachman should get off and turn the horse back to the villa.

Xia Xi opens the lock and walks into the yard. She frowns a little before she takes a few steps. The next door is too quiet, as if no one is at home.

Xia Xi where can think of, Niu family already lived in the county town.

Yuerou called several people and said, "mother-in-law, eldest sister, second sister, I think well, you don't go back, follow me to Fucheng."
