Summary of the previous chapter: Ma Xiaoquan did not like the sudden appearance of Dai Zheng, but due to his politeness, he still gave him some face...
Bei Mingxue was filled with resentment. Although she knew in her heart that she was acting, she still felt a little uncomfortable when being scolded in front of so many people.
This meal... was eaten in silence. Dai Zheng was thinking about how to snatch Bei Mingxue away, while Ma Xiaoquan was thinking about how to leave as soon as possible.
At night, Ma Xiaoquan lived in a room with his three daughters.
Because he had "offended" the three aunts during the day, Ma Xiaoquan stood in front of the three aunts with an awkward expression, and kept begging for mercy.
The man had gold at his knees, so Ma Xiaoquan would definitely not admit his mistake to the three women while kneeling down. Of course, the three women had not thought about it that way.
Dongfang Qingxue was okay. The moment Ma Xiaoquan blinked at her, she had already decided to help Ma Xiaoquan. As for Li Qinghan and Bei Mingxue, one pouted and the other put his hands on his hips, both of them were full of anger.
Look at Ma Xiaoquan.
"Hehe..." Ma Xiaoquan approached Li Qinghan like a flatterer, "Qinghan, I..."
"Don't talk to me." Li Qinghan pushed Ma Xiaoquan.
"Bei Mingxue, I..." Ma Xiaoquan turned around and sneered at Bei Mingxue.
"Hmph." Bei Mingxue rolled her eyes at Ma Xiaoquan fiercely and murmured, "You bad guy, tell me, how much of my reputation have you benefited from?"
"Talk? Cheap?" Ma Xiaoquan deliberately stuck out his tongue to lick his lips and murmured, "I remember I haven't kissed you these days?"
"You" Bei Mingxue stamped her foot fiercely, "you are such a scoundrel."
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled and hugged Bei Mingxue. Just as Bei Mingxue was about to struggle, she heard Ma Xiaoquan whisper in her ear, "Don't move, there are ears outside the door."
"Huh?" Bei Mingxue is also a cautious person, Ma Xiaoquan said, and she immediately glanced sideways towards the door.
Ma Xiaoquan stretched out his hand and gently waved to Li Qinghan and Dongfang Qingxue. The two women also noticed something was wrong and came over gently.
"There is someone outside the door, but I don't know who it is at the moment, but based on my experience, it should be Dai Zheng's men who came here to keep an eye on Tanfeng..."
"Ma Xiaoquan, why can't I see it?" Dongfang Qingxue whispered.
"Haha, otherwise how can we say it is experience? Well, although that guy Dai Zheng is young, the city is very deep, so be careful when sailing a thousand-year-old ship. Well, you guys sleep well tonight, I will guard you in case of accidents."
Dongfang Qingxue said: "Ma Xiaoquan, shall I accompany you to guard it?"
Ma Xiaoquan smiled and said: "No, women have to sleep well. Only when they sleep well can their skin be healthy. Beauty sleeps with beauty. You have to understand this truth."
"Oh" Dongfang Qingxue nodded and said softly.
...
Late at night, the three girls had fallen asleep, and Ma Xiaoquan sat alone at the table, without lighting a lamp or breathing heavily. The room was so silent that you could hear a pin drop.
"Prick" was heard twice, and a small hole was suddenly broken in the window paper. A weak moonlight shone through the hole, and then, a slender bamboo tube stretched out from the hole.
"Fragrant?" Ma Xiaoquan sneered in his heart. If you dare to show such a small trick in front of me, humph, you are looking for death.
Ma Xiaoquan crouched forward secretly, stretched out his right index finger and gently blocked the front of the small bamboo tube.
As soon as he took two breaths, Ma Xiaoquan suddenly felt a slight cooling sensation on his index finger. Needless to say, it must be someone blowing air at the other end of the small bamboo tube.
But... one end is blocked by Ma Xiaoquan, so there is definitely nothing to blow from the other end.
The small bamboo tube quietly retracted.
Ma Xiaoquan held his breath and grinned, waiting for the small bamboo tube to appear again.
Sure enough, the man outside the window seemed to shake the bamboo tube. After confirming that there was no problem, he stretched the bamboo tube in again.
Ma Xiaoquan repeated his old trick and still gently blocked the end of the small bamboo tube.
"Damn it!" Suddenly, an inaudible curse came from outside the window, and then the small bamboo tube retracted again.
Ma Xiaoquan was very patient and waited for the other party's third try.
After a few breaths, the small bamboo tube stretched out again.
This time, the other party seemed to be aware of it, and while stretching in, he kept turning the small bamboo tube.
Ma Xiaoquan snickered in his heart. Just when the man outside the window was not completely ready, he suddenly opened his mouth, skillfully took the tip of the small bamboo tube and blew it back with a fierce blow.
Ma Xiaoquan moved very quickly. He only heard an uh sound from outside, and then it became quiet.
At this time, Li Qinghan woke up, and under the faint moonlight, he saw Ma Xiaoquan sitting under the window doing something unknown.
Li Qinghan was very smart. She didn't say a word, but quietly woke up the other two girls first.
Neither Bei Mingxue nor Dongfang Qingxue was in a deep sleep. Li Qinghan gently patted them, and the two women woke up immediately.
Seeing Ma Xiaoquan nestled in front of the window, Dongfang Qingxue and Bei Mingxue seemed to understand something.
The three women carefully got off the bed and tiptoed up to Ma Xiaoquan.
"What's wrong?" Li Qinghan asked softly.
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled and said, "There is an uninvited guest outside the door, but let me take care of it."
"Who is it?"
Ma Xiaoquan smiled and said: "They should be Dai Zheng's little followers. Well, since the three beauties are awake, just come with me to play with them. It won't be long before Dai Zheng will definitely send someone over."
"Why? We have never met him, and we have no enmity. Why does he want to embarrass us?" Bei Mingxue asked.
"Embarrassed?" Ma Xiaoquan said with a bitter smile, "Who asked the three of you to be more beautiful than the other? If I were him, I would also have evil thoughts."
Bei Mingxue pouted and murmured: "Appearances are innate and we can't control them. Besides, not all men like you like them."
Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand: "Okay, let's not talk about it for now. You three will prepare for a while, and we will discuss it again. We will have some fun later."
When the three girls heard this, they were very happy.
"good"
...
Ma Xiaoquan's judgment was correct. About a moment after burning the incense, there was another slight sound outside the window, as if something had been moved.
If the people in the house were sleeping soundly, they would definitely not be able to hear it, but... the man and three women in the house were all in high spirits.
After a slight sound, it fell into silence again.
Li Qinghan whispered in Ma Xiaoquan's ear: "Have you been noticed?"
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head and replied: "I won't notice it, I just need an introduction...Qinghan, were you all ready just now? What should we do? Do you all understand?"
