”You're from the East?”
”No.”
”Oh, then I know. What do I do next? ” Qiao Liangjin held her chin and began to ponder.
The victims on the side also helped to come up with an idea. ”Tie them up and give them to the Prefecture Overseer of the capital. ”That Prefecture Overseer Zheng won't do anything, so he should at least know how to grab someone to ask, right?”
Qiao Liangjin stood up and clapped her hands. She suddenly waved her hand and said: ”Forget it, you've already been beaten so badly, you should leave.”
As soon as his voice fell, the surrounding people were all stunned. Was this Miss Qiao really a Bodhisattva that had descended to the mortal world? This person wanted to kill her. How could she let him off so easily?
The assassin seemed to be prepared to be beaten or even sent to the government, but unexpectedly, the fat woman waved her hand and let him go.
Qiao Liangjin looked at the bloody face of the assassin seriously and said: ”Today, Japanese girl is very happy to let you go. Help me bring back a message, don't think that I don't know who she is. If you want to kill me, you should first consider whether you have the ability to do so or not.”
He then smiled meaningfully, ”Remember, you must bring this back.”
The assassin slowly sat up and sat on the ground for a long time before slowly standing up. One of his arms was obviously broken off and he was slightly swaying, while the other hand was holding onto his chest.
All the victims did not understand what Qiao Liangjin was doing. They could only watch as she left.
Qiao Liangjin turned around and held onto the old man's arm, and slowly walked towards those wooden houses. As she walked, he warned, ”It's cold inside, this house is made of wood, so everyone must be careful when burning it. Don't let anything go wrong.”
On the way back to the Residence of Prime Minister, Qiao Liangjin's mood was exceptionally cheerful. She couldn't help but hum a song as her palm gently caressed her knee. She used to play the fool, but now she suddenly changed her style.
Qiao Liangjin was reminiscing about what had happened today in satisfaction when the carriage suddenly stopped. The curtain was opened as A'Bai said softly, ”It was Young Master Xiao Rong who blocked the carriage.”
Xiao Rong? Qiao Liangjin's recent life arrangements were so tense that she almost forgot this person.
Opening the curtain, Qiao Liangjin revealed her face and greeted him in high spirits: ”Hello, Young Master Xiao. How are you?”
Xiao Rong lifted his bright smile and, imitating Qiao Liangjin's actions, greeted him, ”Hi, Miss Qiao, long time no see.”
Qiao Liangjin greeted him like she was doing business: ”How's Young Master Xiao's business? Have there been any recent increases in passenger traffic? Didn't do as I said? If there's anything new, remember to let the customer try first. ”
Xiao Rong kept nodding and smiling.
She gently rubbed her face and said: ”Alright, Young Master Xiao, I've been a little busy these past few days, so I won't be talking to you anymore. If there is anything you want to ask me, you can write to me and I will send a message to you.”
Xiao Rong's face turned slightly red and she quickly moved out of the way. She cupped her hands and said, ”I heard about what happened outside the city gates this morning. Miss Qiao is extremely loyal.”
When Qiao Liangjin heard this, she couldn't help praising her again. She then grinned and waved her hand nonstop. With a wink, she smiled and said: ”Aiyo, why are you saying this? I'm really sorry.”
After he had finished speaking, he went into the carriage and rubbed his face. Sigh, it was better to avoid this sort of social interaction. The two of them had nothing to say, so other than laughing, what else could they do?
The carriage continued on until it reached the door of the Prime Minister's Residence. Qiao Liangjin jumped off the carriage and a small figure jumped into her arms.
Qiao Liangjin was so scared that she retreated a little. After looking at the person in her arms carefully, she laughed: ”I told you I didn't see you these past few days, where did you go? Did you go to the monastery with your mother? ”
The little person in his arms raised his head and said angrily, ”That's right! Although my sister made a mistake and my mother made a mistake, my mother insisted on taking me away. I've missed you to death, big sister.”
Qiao Liangjin pinched the small face of Qiao Siyuan who was in her arms and smiled. ”Okay okay, I'm back now. Your mother and your two elder sisters are back, right? Didn't they say they were going to pray in the monastery for ten days? These days, there's no meat to eat. You must have a bland mouth.”
Qiao Yifan nodded repeatedly. Holding Qiao Liangjin's hand, he strode into the mansion.
As soon as they entered the mansion, her heart brought along Qiao Ya and Qiao Yue-er as they stood in a row. Qiao Ya and Qiao Yue-er's gazes were like knives, fiercely glaring at Qiao Liangxin. Only her heart still had a faint smile as they greeted, ”Jin'er, you're back?”
Qiao Liangjin also said with a faint smile, ”It has been a while since we last met, First Madam has indeed lost a lot of weight.”
”I should pray for the madame and the Prime Minister's Mansion. I have seen so many victims of the disaster when I entered the city today, and I have also heard what Jin'er did for the victims. Jin'er has truly grown up.” Her chastity was like a drop of water that was flattering him.
Josephine pulled Qiao Liangjin towards the direction of the Flower Glow Pavilion. It was obvious that she didn't take her mother and elder sister seriously. She waved her hands as she walked. ”Mother, elder sisters, I'm going back with elder sister to eat something delicious.”
