Chapter 244 Worth it?
Chapter 244 Worth it?
Xia Wanniang was in a low mood now. She didn't expect that there were other things behind this. If she had known, how could she let those people die so easily.
Xiao Chiye reached out and held her hand, then looked up at Qingfeng: "The emperor is far away here, why is he going through so much trouble?"
Qing Feng clasped his fingers together and said, "Have you not noticed that there have been more major cases in Luo City since Xu Li came?"
Xiao Chiye narrowed his eyes: "He went after Xu Li, or rather, the Xu family."
Qingfeng nodded: "Yes, although Mr. Xu has resigned, he still has many disciples."
Xia Wanniang fell backwards, and Xiao Chiye reached out and held her waist, letting her lean comfortably on his arm: "The rat hiding in the dark is really annoying!"
Qingfeng watched the two of them working together closely. It was because they completely trusted each other that they gave themselves completely to each other. "It's really annoying. Wanniang, are you interested in catching mice?"
Xia Wanniang raised her eyebrows and looked at him: "I am not a cat."
Qingfeng: "Although it's not a cat, this mouse causes you some trouble from time to time. Don't you hate it?"
Xia Wanniang raised the corners of her lips and smiled: "Let's talk about it later!"
Qingfeng was not in a hurry: "In that case, why don't Chiye take me to where I live? When should I start teaching the child?"
Xia Wanniang: "Early tomorrow morning."
Qingfeng nodded: "Okay."
Xiao Chiye waited for her to sit down before he stood up and left his house with Qingfeng. Their family had no place for him to live, so they could only let him live in the house where they were temporarily staying at Fangzhan.
Xia Wanniang looked at Qingfeng's leaving back, her eyes dark and unclear, and no one knew what she was thinking.
When Aunt Xiao came back with a few children, she saw this expression on her face.
She walked up to Xia Wanniang and said, "Wanniang."
Xia Wanniang came back to her senses and looked at her: "Mom, when did you come back? You must be tired. I'll go get you some water to wash your hands."
Aunt Xiao held her back and said, "Don't bother, we've already washed it."
Xia Wanniang went to the kitchen and took out some ice jelly from the space and placed it in front of them: "Have a bowl of ice jelly to cool down."
Aunt Xiao took the bowl from her hand and said, "I heard from Zimu and the others that the Master is here today?"
Xia Wanniang nodded: "Yes, I should know him."
Aunt Xiao was a little surprised: "I know him?"
Xia Wanniang smiled faintly: "Qingfeng."
Aunt Xiao was a little surprised: "How could it be this child? He should have an official position."
"Mother, he was dismissed from office." Xia Wanniang said lightly.
Aunt Xiao felt a little regretful: "What a pity for this child." Then she scooped a spoonful of ice jelly and took a bite.
Xia Wanniang looked at the six children eating happily and said, "Mom, since we are becoming apprentices, should we prepare apprenticeship gifts?"
"We should prepare it." Aunt Xiao nodded.
The two discussed what to prepare for the apprenticeship gift. Xia Wanniang already had all these things in her space, so there was no need to buy them.
Just take it out tomorrow.
At night, Xia Wanniang was lying on the bed and suddenly said, "Husband."
Xiao Chiye opened his eyes and looked at her: "What's wrong?"
Xia Wanniang said calmly: "I want to see His Majesty."
Xiao Chiye frowned: "You want to see him?"
Xia Wanniang sat up and faced him: "If I want to catch the rat behind, I must meet this man."
Xiao Chiye looked at him and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Xia Wanniang: "Only if the temptation is big enough can he show up."
Xiao Chiye looked at her: "It's too dangerous."
Xia Wanniang looked at him and suddenly smiled: "There is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days. Since he is in the dark, we should find a way to make him appear in the light. At least we need to know what he wants first."
Xiao Chiye's face was solemn: "To conspire with a tiger is very risky."
Xia Wanniang raised her hand and touched his cheek: "My husband, before that, let's meet the Eleventh Prince first to see if she is worth the risk."
Xiao Chiye's hand covered the back of her hand: "What if he's not worth it?"
Xia Wanniang raised the corners of her lips and said, "Let them do whatever they want. I will always find a way to protect you. At worst, we can just move to another place to live."
Xiao Chiye took her hand, placed it on his lips and kissed it gently: "Worth it?"
