Chapter 47 Isn’t country more important than beauty? (4)
The old bustard leaned on the railing, waved the embroidered handkerchief in his hand, and said in a low voice,
"What are you afraid of? The only little maid he can trust is in our hands. If we give him a smart little girl in the next few days and ask the doctor to prescribe some sweat medicine for him, I don't believe he won't take a bath."
As soon as Linsan heard this, he immediately answered, "We have medicine. I'll give it to him in a moment."
The old bustard nodded his forehead as if he hated iron.
"You are stupid. His body can withstand our medicine. If it is given here, we don't need to change it. We can just wait for the imperial court to encircle and suppress it."
"Yes, yes. Sister is still thoughtful."
…
The woodshed was in disrepair and a musty smell filled every corner.
Qiao Xi untied and tied the rope that bound her, waiting for the other party's next step over and over again.
Boredly counting the sunrises and sunsets.
Every day, except for the mute girl who delivered food, she saw no one. After about two days and one night, she finally saw the madam in a quiet dusk.
But now she is not as calm as before, and the hairpin on her head is crooked. Although she hid it well, she was still discovered by Qiao Xi.
"There have been many offences these days, and we are also following orders." The old bustard put a rope on her that was more difficult to untie, and said sincerely.
Qiao Xi looked at her actions with some amusement, but was not annoyed and said lazily, "Whose order do you do what?"
"We know that the young master's noble man wants to use his tiger skin to prop up the scene."
"Then you borrowed it, why are you tying me up?"
"I know that the girl is extraordinary, so before the matter is settled, I still have to aggrieve the girl."
The madam walked around and around until Qiao Xi understood what she meant.
"The host is missing. I hope she can tell you where the host is likely to go. After all, the body can't travel too far."
Qiao Xi tilted his head and lay straight on the sack, as if refusing to speak.
…
Probably because he was really anxious, the madam lost her previous smile and threatened directly,
"Girl, don't toast me and eat as a penalty. I won't make it easy for you if you can't find anyone."
"You didn't make it easy for me before when I was safe." Qiao Xi rolled his eyes at her and turned his face away from her.
The madam was a real person. When she saw her like this, she immediately asked the kitchen to prepare a big meal and bring it over.
…
Sauce-flavored pork elbow, braised shark's fin, poached tenderloin...
"Girl, as long as you tell me where the young master is now, these will all be yours. I can also deed the cook to you, how about that?"
Qiao Xi looked at the dishes in front of him and swallowed unconsciously.
The reason why she didn't send the person to the General's Mansion immediately was because the food in Jingxuan Pavilion was so delicious.
The madam looked at her expression and said again and again,
"This cook's ancestors were royal chefs who cooked for the royal children. He only left the palace because he was old. Especially for this sauce elbow, you won't be able to find anyone else in the entire Huaqi National Security Agency."
"You guys go out first, I'll think about it for a while," Qiao Xi said softly.
The madam waved her hand, left her things behind, and then left.
[Josie: Activate telepathy service.]
[Space: Insufficient experience points, only the junior version of telepathy service can be activated. 】
Josie sighed, and after reading the instructions, she felt a little regretful.
Between only knowing a large part of the host's thoughts, and waiting for a while to purchase superior martial arts - she hesitated.
The delicious aroma of the food on the table in front of her made her mouth water.
"Actually, we should still speak with a clear heart, right? If one day we say something wrong, wouldn't this small world be wiped out directly? Then wasn't all my previous work in vain?"
Josie said to himself in his mind,
"I'm definitely not doing it for the immediate food, I'm doing it to facilitate my future work. And this basic version can be upgraded later, so it's not a loss."
[Time and Space Messenger:...]
[Josie: Agree to activate the junior version of telepathy service.]
The madam waited outside for a world of incense. She couldn't bear it anymore and entered the woodshed again.
"Girl, have you thought of it? There is no specific place. Your contact information or password will do."
Qiao Xi spoke vaguely while struggling to eat,
"He's back."
"You're back? Where are you back to?" The madam didn't react for a while.
…
In fact, don't say she didn't understand, even Qiao Xi, who had just heard the first sentence, had the same expression.
Just after the service was activated, Josie heard a man’s voice,
[They never thought I would come back.]
[This is the contact point of the Peace Peace Society. Now I can only confirm that the Madam is a relatively important figure in the Peace Peace Society, but I am not sure whether she is the person in charge of the Peace Peace Society.]
[The general should have received the letter by this time. If it waits for another three hours, all the rebels here will be wiped out.]
[When the time comes, my father will definitely take a high look at me.]
It was only after she heard this that she realized that the host was not as uninterested in imperial power as he appeared to be.
Now she only needs to cooperate with the host and drag him for three hours.
"You can just stay here and know that your young master is back?" The madam didn't believe it and sent his men to look.
"Maybe it's because it's too boring here and he went out for a walk."
Seeing the waiter nodding as he came back, the madam held up her skirt and walked out with a look of disbelief, not forgetting to tell the waiter next to her to keep an eye on her.
…
"Aren't you hungry?" Qiao Xi deliberately asked the strong men standing on both sides.
They were just the lowest members of the Anhe Society. Naturally, they had never eaten such delicious food. When they heard her words, they all swallowed secretly.
"Let's eat together. I can't finish it all by myself. Don't let such delicious food go to waste."
Qiao Xi rolled her eyes and said, "Don't be afraid, my young master is back, and Mrs. Yu will be back soon to invite me out."
Seeing that the person was a little shaken, she continued to trick her, "Why do people live in this life? The appetite comes first. When I get out of here, it will be impossible for you to eat such delicious food."
The few of them looked at each other, and finally couldn't resist the deception of Qiao Xi's sharp tongue, so they sat down and started eating.
But after a moment, the two of them fell heavily on the table.
The girl swallowed the last bite of her elbow and said with a serious face, "Hey, didn't you pay attention to what your boss said before he left... Keep an eye on me."
…
…
"Click."
Hearing the sound and looking at the tea set that fell on the ground, Qiao Xi pulled the person into the house. It was the mute girl who had been bringing him food.
She gestured to the person lying on the ground with a horrified look on her face, making a whining sound from her mouth.
Qiao Xi closed the door, knocked the person unconscious and put him in the corner.
