The captain's face was covered with sweat. He had never thought that the Li family was so difficult to deal with, especially Miss Li, who was so sharp-tongued that her words were like knives, leaving him unable to fight back at all.
Right in front of the government office, in front of so many people, it would be difficult for them to take action.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a soft voice coming from inside the door, "What are you making a fuss about? There's nothing to do?"
When the captain heard this voice, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he was waiting for a savior, "Miss Qi, you are here."
Seven girls?
Did we meet so soon?
Li Man'er turned her head curiously and saw a girl of short stature, fair skin, and dignified appearance.
This girl has a face like a silver plate, with curved eyebrows, small but sharp eyes, and a pair of pear hollows on her cheeks.
Somehow, Li Maner thought of Miss Huang for a moment.
Both girls are cute. Miss Huang is really cute. This seventh girl looks dignified, but I don't know that her mind is as clear as Huang Yuhe's.
"what happened?"
Without waiting for the captain to speak, Li Maner took a step forward and looked at Miss Xiao Qi up and down, "You are from the Xiao family."
The seventh girl nodded, "Girl is..."
"I'm Li Man'er. You imprisoned my father here and didn't find a doctor for him or give him medical treatment. I can only come here in person."
"Are you the daughter of Marquis Tiedan?"
Li Man'er almost raised her chin to the sky. Anyway, everyone in the world knew that she, Li Man'er, was domineering and arrogant. In Mobei, the sky was high and the emperor was far away, so not many people knew about her drastic change in personality.
This can also become her protective color.
"Miss Li, please be patient. Since she is the daughter of Marquis Tiedan, it is natural for her to see Marquis Tiedan. We are not trying to prevent others from seeing her. It's just that the situation in Mobei is different from that in the capital. Countless spies sneak in here every year, trying to
To spy on the military situation. If we hadn't been more vigilant, I'm afraid we would have handed over this borderland to the barbarians long ago." The seventh girl spoke slowly and convincingly. Compared with her, Li Man'er seemed to be a
That kind of unreasonable person.
Li Maner didn't mind either, and immediately smiled and said: "Oh, that's what happened!"
Li Nian frowned. This Miss Xiao Qi has too many tricks. Will Man'er be her opponent?
However, he then thought about it, Man'er is not bad at all. She is capable of literary and military skills, brave and resourceful. She can kill more than a dozen barbarians by herself. Even if Miss Xiao Qi is smarter, she is nothing more than a fool in front of Man'er.
Just a little clever.
Li Nian was relieved, but he deliberately took over the conversation and warned Li Man'er: "Man'er, you are not young anymore. Don't believe what others say. These people are not simple-minded, do you understand?"
Slapping people in the face, Li Nian vividly interprets the image of a military commander with little etiquette and vulgarity.
"Third uncle, don't worry, I understand." Li Man'er said: "Miss Qi, you seem to be the one who can make the decision. Let's not stand here blowing the cold wind. Can I take my maid to treat my father's illness?
?”
"Of course you can." Miss Xiao Qi smiled, "It's just that the eldest girl's belongings need to be checked routinely."
Li Nian gritted his teeth, "Don't bully others too much."
"I told you it was a routine inspection. The girl has nothing to worry about. What are you afraid of?"
Zuo Cheng snorted coldly, "The Xiao family is really amazing. Today is an eye-opener for us. When we return to the capital someday, we have to say it to the old and young men in the capital."
The seventh girl didn't seem to mind, "Girl, do you have a lot of things to bring? It's inconvenient for us women to go out. These guards are clumsy. Don't knock over your things again. If you don't mind, I will take the maid with you."
Check it out.”
Look, how beautifully they say this.
"Okay!" Li Man'er said, "I just need a medicine box, a baggage, and a girl."
Li Man'er called Liu Ya to come forward, "Take something and show it to the seventh girl."
Liu Ya stepped forward and handed over the baggage and medicine box.
Miss Xiao Qi called two women to come and take the things to a place where people were carrying them for inspection, but found nothing out of the ordinary.
The two men sent the things back respectfully.
"Since everything is fine, I can take my girl in!"
"Of course." Miss Xiao Qi stepped aside a little and said, "Big lady, please."
Li Maner turned around and said, "Third uncle, please go back. When father wakes up, we can come back."
Li Nian was not so optimistic. He stared at Li Man'er's face closely for a while and then said: "Man'er, take care of yourself."
Li Man'er nodded and took Liu Ya into the government office.
Several people passed through the central hall, bypassed a row of back rooms, and then successfully arrived at the backyard.
"I feel sorry for having to trouble Miss Seven to lead the way myself." Li Man'er said: "The backyard of the government office is not big, so it is not easy to accommodate a big family like you."
The seventh girl only said: "Our Xiao family has been here for decades to respect the people of the country and to protect the land and expand the territory for the Holy One. We are not here to enjoy happiness. It is a place for people to live, which is enough. It is a bit shabby here. I want to come here."
It's not as impressive as the Marquis Mansion, which makes the older girls laugh."
Is this a roundabout way of scolding her for not knowing the sufferings of the people?
These seven girls are really wonderful people.
"Oh, it's quite shabby. I didn't expect the seventh girl to be quite self-aware." Li Man'er didn't feel self-conscious at all, nor was he angry. He also said, "I heard that the Xiao family uncle is the shrewdest and has done a lot in Mobei.
Our business has not only improved the lives of the common people by several levels, but your Xiao family's business is also booming. The Xiao family has a lot of properties in Mobei, so why do you pretend to be shabby?"
A flash of anger flashed in the eyes of the seventh girl, but she didn't say anything. On the contrary, the mother-in-law who was following the seventh girl couldn't stand it and gave Li Man'er a slight blessing.
"Eldest lady, please be careful. The affairs of the Xiao family are not enough for outsiders to understand! Eldest lady, you are a guest. You need to correct your identity. Don't be so careless."
The seventh girl frowned, "You also know that the eldest girl is a guest, how can you be so rude to a guest? Someone..."
She was about to say something, but she was stopped by Li Man'er with a smile, "Oh, a woman, why do you call her Zhen'er? It's the same for a big girl, you can't get angry, it's just a trivial matter. But, big girl, hurry up
It’s best to take me to see my father. If I go too late, it will delay my father’s condition, right? You know, it’s Miss Qi who is so warm-hearted. But I don’t know, I thought you were deliberately blocking me.
Our parents are meeting!"
The seventh girl really has never seen anyone like Li Man'er. How come she dares to say anything, and she says it so calmly and without any scruples.
Liu Ya lowered her head slightly, trying not to laugh out loud.
