"Oh, who did I think it was? It turns out to be you, the Sangmenxing!" The woman in red walked up to Li Qiang.
"I heard that you were lucky recently and met a blacksmith holding a silver order. He wants to teach you how to repair the city gate?"
After the woman in red finished speaking, the old servant beside her hurriedly whispered: "Fifth Miss, that blacksmith is him!" The old servant looked at Xia Jin.
The woman in red raised her chin and sneered: "So what? It's just a coolie. I've taken a liking to it and want to buy it back. What happened?"
After that, she walked up to Xia Jin and asked, "How much silver do you want?"
"Miss Fifth, you want to buy my entourage, right? Since you are so sincere, let's talk!"
Lin Ziyi's eyes widened, he looked at Xia Jin, and whispered: "What are you going to do!"
Xia Jin gave him a reassuring look.
When the woman in red saw that Xia Jin was willing to sell, she smiled proudly and said, "How much money do you want!"
As she spoke, she rummaged through her purse.
Xia Jin couldn't help but laugh. Instead of being angry, she actually found this fifth lady very interesting.
In this ancient feudal world, she was the first woman to spend lavishly on men.
But, unfortunately, the general is really not for sale!
"If you want him, give him your Xuerong Mountain mine in exchange!" Xia Jin said lightly.
The woman in red's face turned red, "I'm just a servant, and the most valuable thing is only twenty or thirty taels of silver. How can I use it so expensively?"
"Since it's too expensive, don't ask. I've already told you that it's not for sale!"
Xia Jin waved her hand, "Let's go!"
Lin Ziyi followed her as she walked away, and Li Qiang also went with her. Seeing that they were all gone, Qi Tianxiao hurriedly chased after her.
Along the way, there was quite a bit of resentment.
"Why did you fall in love with Brother Ziyi? Aren't I handsome too!" He touched his face.
As soon as these words came out, Lin Ziyi's face turned even darker.
Xia Jin chuckled, "In two years, when you grow taller, you might be able to sell it for a good price!"
"I was joking just now, don't sell me out!" Qi Tianxiao quickly explained.
Lin Ziyi glanced at Qiang, who had been leading the way, and left Qiang without saying a word.
"That fifth lady, aren't you going to explain?"
Li Qiang stopped, turned to look at Lin Ziyi, and said, "Her name is Li Xue'er, she is the fifth lady of the City Lord's Mansion."
After saying that, he continued walking forward until he reached the city lord's mansion and entered.
The courtyard where Li Qiang lives is in a mixed courtyard in the outer courtyard, which is very remote. However, Li Xiaotian arranged for the courtyard where Xia Jin lives in a wing of the main courtyard, so after entering, they will not be in the same room when they go back.
Returning to the main courtyard and entering the room, the three of them sat down respectively. Xia Jin filled water for Lin Ziyi and Qitian Xiao, and poured herself a glass at the same time.
After drinking a glass of water, Xia Jin looked at Lin Ziyi and asked, "What are the general's plans?"
"Don't you think there is something wrong with Li Qiang?"
"You mean he is hiding something!"
Lin Ziyi took a sip from the water glass, moistened his throat, and said, "Maybe we can start the investigation from him!"
Xia Jin raised her eyebrows and secretly said that Lin Ziyi and she wanted to go together!
This was the reason why Xia Jin chose Li Qiang when Qi Tianxiao asked him to teach city gate maintenance.
As he was talking, he heard the butler's voice coming from outside.
"Master Xia, City Lord, please come to the main courtyard!"
Xia Jin stood up and walked out, followed closely by Lin Ziyi and Li Qiang. When they arrived at the main courtyard hall, they saw the fifth lady standing beside Li Xiaotian.
"Dad, that's him!" Li Xueer pointed at Lin Ziyi.
"Xue'er wants to buy him!"
Li Xiaotian looked at Xia Jin and asked: "Master Xia, how much silver do you want? We sincerely want to buy it, so please don't embarrass us!"
Xia Jin glanced at Lin Ziyi, who had a dark face. The corners of her mouth twitched and she almost stopped laughing.
Generals are quite popular, but Lin Ziyi is indeed very good-looking, but he usually wears armor, with his hair standing up and sometimes wearing a helmet. In addition, he has a straight face and a very serious look all day long, which leads to
It's easy to miss his looks.
His current casual attire only highlighted his handsomeness.
Xia Jin cupped her hands and said, "It's not that I don't want to sell it, it's just that I can't sell it! If it's possible, let alone sell it, it's okay to give it to the city lord for free!"
Hearing what Xia Jin said, Li Xiaotian asked doubtfully, "Is there something wrong with his health?"
Xia Jin nodded, with a sad look on his face: "He has an incurable disease, and his last wish is to follow me around. If I sell him to the city lord, he will die here soon, and I won't give you this for nothing.
Are you unlucky?"
After Xia Jin finished speaking, she felt a chill on her back, and when she glanced at him, she saw that his face was getting darker.
Qi Tianxiao stood aside and laughed happily.
"Then it's okay if I want him!" Li Xue'er pointed at Qitian Xiao.
Xia Jin raised her eyebrows, "He... is okay!"
Qi Tianxiao's eyes widened, he really sold it!
"However, he is not yet an adult!" Xia Jin said immediately.
Qi Tianxiao breathed a sigh of relief!
"I don't care, I just want to buy one. Dad, you said, you will give me whatever I want. Now I just want a man, why is it so difficult!"
"Xue'er, please choose another one!"
"Dad, I don't care. Anyway, I don't want to marry a fool who is married to his fingertips at the end of the month!" After saying that, Li Xueer ran away.
Before leaving, he glanced at Lin Ziyi, looking very sorry.
Xia Jin suddenly realized that she was rushing to buy someone to avoid the engagement.
"Make Master Xia laugh!" Li Xiaotian cupped his hand.
"I took the dog out today. How did he study?" Li Tianxiao changed the subject.
"Master Ninth is very smart and learns quickly. I believe we can leave the maintenance of the city gate to him in the future!" Xia Jin said.
Hearing Xia Jin's words, Li Xiaotian nodded, "So there is Master Lao Xia!"
After Xia Jin said a few words to the city lord, she walked out. When she passed a wall, she heard a sound of beating and scolding. The direction was in the direction of the courtyard where the servants lived. Could it be...
Xia Jin quickly jumped onto the roof and saw Li Qiang being surrounded by several people, punched and kicked.
"What are you doing!" Xia Jin shouted.
Seeing someone coming, these people dispersed and left.
Xia Jin walked over and saw that Li Qiang was motionless and had passed out. Looking at the bruises on his body, Xia Jin frowned.
Taking him back to the room, Xia Jin took his pulse and wanted to check his injuries, but found something wrong!
At this moment, Li Qiang woke up. He quickly retracted his hand, fumbled in his arms, poured out a pill and threw it into his mouth.
Xia Jin slapped the pills away and snatched the bottle away.
"Give it back to me!" Li Qiang hurriedly went to snatch it, but Xia Jin dodged and he missed it and fell heavily to the ground.
"Who gave this medicine?" Xia Jin looked at Li Qiang and asked.
"This is none of your business!" He snatched the medicine bottle from Xia Jin's hand and carefully placed it in his arms, as if this thing was extremely precious.
"Do you know what kind of medicine this is!" Xia Jin looked serious.
"This is poison!"
"Impossible, Mr. Qu gave this to me. He said that as long as I take it every day, my hands will return to normal! I won't always harm others!"
It’s indeed Qu Rongjie!
Seeing Li Qiang's confident look, Xia Jin grabbed his collar angrily!
