Chapter 119 Pretend to be ruthless

At the entrance of the alley not far from the Prime Minister's Mansion, a carriage had been waiting for a long time. When he saw the woman and Zhang Qingjiu approaching, he immediately opened the curtain.

The two got on the carriage together, and the woman took off her veil, and she knelt down to Zhang Qingjiu with a "thump" in the carriage, "Zhang Xiaoxian knows everything is like a god, please save my father, I am so kind to you."

Virtue, thank you for nothing in return, I wish..."

"Get up." Zhang Qingjiu saw that the little girl who was still stubborn and arrogant a few days ago had become so worried about gains and losses today, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Xie Qing, since I have agreed to your mother's request, now

Naturally, you won’t sit idly by and ignore this matter, otherwise how can you fulfill your mother’s wish?”

"Then you...you mean, you have a way to save my father?" Xie Qing's eyes lit up. Although there were still tears hanging from the corners of his eyelashes, his eyes suddenly came to life.

"I'll give it a try." Zhang Qingjiu narrowed his eyes.

"Thank you so much Zhang Xiaoxian." After hearing this, Xie Qing immediately burst into laughter, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and got up with a "Gulu" sound, "Mr. Xiaoxian, my mother has already prepared a banquet at Zhaixing Tower, please invite me.

Mr. Fairy, please give me your face."

Zhang Qingjiu: "..."

Did she hit a bastard today, or did she encounter a starving person?

Otherwise, in just a few hours, why would there be so many people rushing to see her at dinner parties?

Finally taking advantage of the fact that it was getting dark, I had already agreed with the Prince's Mansion that I would go over to check the sky tonight, so I happened to come out just when Xie Qing came to look for me.

Who knew there was a meal waiting here?

Xie Qing didn't notice the subtlety on Zhang Qingjiu's face. When she said "I'll give it a try", she already regarded Zhang Qingjiu as the savior of the family. Her heart went out. How could she pay attention?

This little detail.

The two came to the Star-Zhaing Building, and it was the "Jixue Hall" that Xie Qing always liked to book. Xie Wanshuang had obviously been waiting inside for a long time. When she heard the footsteps and Xie Qing's voice coming from outside, she immediately stepped forward and opened the door.

When he opened the door and saw Zhang Qingjiu following his daughter, his eyes lit up and he quickly said, "Young Master Xiaoxian."

"Buying and selling are equal, there is no need to be polite." Zhang Qingjiu raised his eyebrows, stretched out his hand to give him a hand, and glanced at the sunset outside the window, with an almost invisible sigh flashing in his eyes.

Jixuetang Jixuetang, Jixuetang will be Jixue only when the sun sets after the snow.

The world only knows that the scenery is beautiful when it clears up after snow and everything is alive, but they don't know that it is the coldest time since the sunset in winter.

This period of time is often the hardest for people to endure...

"Young Master Xiaoxian, you already know the matter, so I won't say anything more. I also ask Young Master Xiaoxian to lend a helping hand. We, mother and daughter, are deeply grateful." Sun Ningshuang looked at Zhang Qingjiu's young face in front of her and said,

There was no hesitation or distrust in his eyes.

"The truth of the matter is what it will be. Whatever I can do, I will try my best to do it." Zhang Qingjiu narrowed his eyes, "But this matter requires the two of you to lend a hand."

"No matter what Mr. Fairy tells you, we, mother and daughter, will do our best." Sun Ningshuang glanced at her daughter and nodded seriously.

Zhang Qingjiu sighed softly, "You two, please come over."

After Zhang Qingjiu finished speaking, Sun Ningshuang was startled, and her tone was a little more worried, "But he was taken away directly from the door of his house today. Many neighbors saw this, but

I’m afraid I can’t hide it.”

"It doesn't matter if you can't hide it, you just need to act like it doesn't matter. Remember, don't let anyone see that you care." Zhang Qingjiu smiled faintly, remembering that Chu Lan had dragged him around the Prince's Mansion all morning.

I couldn't help but grind my back molars.

However, did he really think that if he kept him, she would be unable to do anything about it?

"We understand." Seeing Zhang Qingjiu's confident appearance, Sun Ningshuang calmed down and nodded solemnly, "I'd like to thank you, Mr. Immortal, for this matter."

"No need to thank me, go back early. Remember what I said these days, close the door and thank guests, and don't let anyone in." Zhang Qingjiu nodded and stood up.

Rejecting the Xie family's mother and daughter's offer to send him back, Zhang Qingjiu slowly came down from the Star Building and looked somewhere, with a barely visible smile on his lips.

Dr. Tea, who was very popular yesterday and was applauded by everyone, has disappeared today.

As the saying goes, when a tree falls, the monkey will scatter. No matter how bright his tongue is, he cannot bring a bunch of people together.

It's just that Chu Lan's movements were so fast, which was a bit beyond her expectation, but... it just happened to save her some effort.

Curling his lips, Zhang Qingjiu sighed quietly, walked out of the gate of Zhaixing Building, and walked into the Shangjing City Street Market where the nightlife began.

That night, a big event happened at Yixiang Tower, the most prosperous building in Beijing. The oiran girl Wanrou, who was scheduled to dance tonight, suddenly fell ill and was unable to perform.

As soon as the news came out, most of the guests at Yixiang House immediately left disappointed.

After all, Miss Wanrou is very valuable, and she has no market. Even if she has money, she may not be able to be such a guest. Come here tonight, it is a small matter of entertainment, and the right answer is to meet Wanrou, but who knows what happened?

Such a thing.

On the other side, Wanrou in the room was sitting in front of the mirror, looking at herself in the mirror with a silent expression.

Aunt Hua from Yixiang Tower had a look of helplessness on her face, and her words were boiling, "Hey, my little ancestor, are you serious that you don't want to go on stage? You've already changed your clothes, what's wrong with you?"

"

She really didn't want to prepare a month's work to be wasted tonight, not to mention that she didn't think that Wanrou was really in trouble, after all, she had already put on her clothes.

"Mommy, let's do it next time." Wanrou lowered her eyes, a hint of gloom flashed in her eyes, and she was about to take off the hair accessories on her head.

"Next time." Aunt Hua stepped forward unwillingly, held Wanrou's hand, pointed at the person in the mirror and said, "Look at this face, how beautiful it is today, look at this bun, but

After taking care of it for two whole hours, look at this dress again. It cost me three hundred taels of silver to customize it for you. You..."

"Mommy, if I didn't have this face, how many people would like me?" Suddenly, Wanrou sneered, looking at herself in the mirror, her expression became a little weird.

Aunt Hua was startled, "Wanrou, you, what are you talking nonsense about..."

There were quite a few girls in the building who started making trouble and threatened to be disfigured. Wanrou shouldn't be of this temperament, but it's not appropriate to apply this term to her current status, isn't it?

"I'm joking." Wanrou lowered her eyes, took down the mirror on the side, covered it, turned her head and said, "Don't worry, grandma, I'm just unwell. Give me another half month, and I will definitely make you more money than

More today."

Seeing that Wanrou was relieved, Grandma Hua also secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, leaving Qingshan without fear of running out of firewood. As long as she agreed, she wouldn't be afraid that those men would not come.

He nodded immediately and said, "Then you should have a good rest."

"Thank you, mama." Wanrou stood up and saluted.

Grandma Hua glanced at Wanrou, turned around and was about to leave, when she suddenly turned her head back and wiped her eyes.

Why did she seem to think Wanrou was not as beautiful as before?
