Chapter 172 She secretly pleases me?
Thin smoke rose, covering the ground, making it unclear.
After waiting for the child to be rescued, Wang Si was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat.
Just when there was lightning and thunder, a man dressed as a servant came out and rescued the child, otherwise something would have happened today.
Shen Qiuhe had already jumped off his horse. If he saved the child, he might be injured himself. If someone took a step ahead of him, he would be saved as well.
"Master." Wang Si stood in front of Shen Qiuhe and shouted guiltily.
No matter what the reason is, if a child is stepped on and injured in the street, it is always his fault.
Shen Qiuhe waved his hand and fisted at the servant, "Thank you, warrior."
"You're welcome, sir." Seeing that Shen Qiuhe was wearing official clothes, the other party nodded and shouted politely.
The child in his arms was also frightened and didn't dare to say a word.
"Master." As he spoke, Qiao Guxin came out of the shop, and the people below immediately let go of the child and stood aside.
Shen Qiuhe also didn't expect that Qiao Guxin would be here.
Moreover, it seems that the clothes the other party is wearing are not the clothes of the Duke's Palace.
"Niu Wa, my child." The child's father also caught up with him at this moment. He held the frightened child there and shouted twice. Waiting for the child to come to his senses, the father pushed Niu Wa to the ground, " Kowtow to your benefactor."
Qiao Guxin did not look at Shen Qiuhe, but waved his hand, and soon the rescuer's servant retreated to the back.
Qiao Guxin did not help the two men up, but looked at them condescendingly, "How old is this child?"
Smile slightly and have a gentle voice.
The child's father didn't think much and said, "Your Majesty, I am eight years old this year."
When Qiao Guxin heard this, he nodded immediately, "I don't save people in vain, you have to show your gratitude, right?"
When the child's father heard this, he raised his head suddenly. He never expected that Qiao Guxin, who was dressed like a noble person, could be so worldly when he spoke.
Shouldn't you say you're welcome after rescuing someone? Instead of asking for money so openly?
The child's father immediately pulled the child to his feet and said, "How much do you want? People's hearts are not as good as they used to be, and the world has become cold. Even if you don't have money, you don't deserve to be saved."
"It's a favor to save you, but it's my duty not to save you. If you just want to talk about it, then it's okay not to save you." Rosary was talkative, and she didn't know what Qiao Guxin meant by asking for money, but the master spoke, and the person below Just protect your master's thoughts.
The child's father blushed and became thick-necked after being scolded, "Okay, okay, just wait and I will get the money for you now."
After saying this, he became angry and took the child home.
But he kept his word and ran out of the house quickly with a small bag of copper coins in his hand, "Here you go, I'll give it to you now, we owe nothing to each other anymore!"
The rosary asked someone to pick up the copper plates and put them on their hands to pad them. It was estimated that there were twenty or thirty copper plates, which was quite a lot for a farmer.
"That's natural." Qiao Guxin replied, and then asked the people below to carry the things she ordered to the carriage.
It was as if she didn't care about it at all.
As soon as I saw that everyone was busy working on their own, everyone around watching the excitement dispersed.
Shen Qiuhe walked to the carriage, glanced at the things, and saw that they were mostly used for banquets at home, and then his face darkened, "You are really trying your best!"
You are so anxious to take a concubine for yourself!
Qiao Guxin took the list and clicked it, then handed it to the person next to her, "I also want to relax for a few days. I have offended my sister-in-law now. I can't be a good boy in front of my mother-in-law. I'd like to trouble Mr. Shen on March 10th." Don’t make any mistakes on the fifth day.”
Listening to Qiao Guxin complaining angrily, Shen Qiuhe only thought about March 15th. He thought Qiao Guxin was anxious to get a concubine for him, but he didn't expect that he was actually celebrating his birthday.
He moved his gaze to one side and said, "It's been almost my twentieth birthday since there are so many things. It's the same every year. I'm afraid my mother is used to it, so don't waste your efforts."
"Besides, although we haven't separated, we are still separated. You don't need to take your sister-in-law's attitude to heart." Shen Qiuhe coughed to cover up his discomfort.
It was rare that he could comfort people in a good voice.
Qiao Guxin saw that the carriage was packed up, and the people below had raised the curtains and were waiting, "If you don't want to, you can pass."
There is no need to nag in front of yourself, it is your own business to do it or not, but it is Shen Qiuhe's business to participate or not.
"You're such a lazy person, don't you understand?" Shen Qiuhe couldn't help complaining to Qiao Guxin.
But what came back to him was the sound of Qiao Guxin lowering the curtain.
Seeing the carriage about to leave, Shen Qiuhe suddenly stretched out his hand to grab the reins, and then used his other hand to lift the curtain of the carriage, "Shall I have someone take you back?"
No matter whether the people below were from the Hou Mansion or were purchased by Qiao Guxin later, Shen Qiuhe always felt inappropriate to let these people serve Qiao Guxin, as if he couldn't even afford his own woman.
Qiao Guxin snorted coldly, "Master Shen really wants to come out all the time, why are you not busy now?"
She still remembered that she and Gu met a thief outside. Because Shen Qiuhe was on official business, he didn't even say a polite word and simply walked away.
What is it now? Going up a pole to flatter yourself?
Shen Qiuhe lowered the curtain fiercely, "Even if I talk too much!"
Then he turned around and got on his horse.
The prince is still waiting for news about him. Wouldn't it be nice to finish his work as soon as possible and go back early to rest?
Shen Qiuhe's horse didn't take two steps and suddenly pulled the reins to a halt. He looked back and saw Qiao Guxin's carriage, which couldn't wait to leave. Shen Qiuhe sneered from behind and then threw it away. Picked up the reins.
Who cares about whom? She doesn't want to see him. Is it possible that he insists on having a warm face but a cold butt?
It was just that the reins were swung constantly, but the horse walked slowly, and it seemed that he was reluctant to hit the horse hard.
Wang Si slowly approached and said, "Master, how do you think the young lady will prepare to celebrate the master's birthday?"
As soon as Wang Si mentioned Qiao's old feelings, Shen Qiuhe immediately sat up straight and suddenly became energetic, "Didn't you hear? They didn't even plan to invite me to their birthday banquet. How else would they plan to celebrate it? With Northwest Liang The wind celebrates me?"
Seeing Shen Qiuhe complaining, Wang Si curled his lips next to him, automatically assuming that he was deaf just now and didn't hear what Shen Qiuhe was talking nonsense.
"I think, the birthday banquet prepared by the young lady for you must be grand, otherwise the young lady will not be in a tight situation, and she is still thinking about money at this time." After rescuing the person, he begged for the money to save the person. It's disgraceful.
Mentioning this matter, Shen Qiuhe rolled his eyes at Wang Si, "You've been with me for so long, why haven't you made any progress at all?"
