Daddy, are you who they say you are, or are you what I have seen? You sue me, who should I trust?

Lu Biqian's translucent eyes gradually condensed, her eyes were low, and in the deep shadow, she was silent, letting the mottled light and shadow fall all over her body.

The maid next to her saw that she was distracted, and saw that between her solemn eyebrows, there was a little faint depression, and she couldn't help but call out with some hesitation: "Miss? ”

Lu Biqian came back to her senses, shook her head, and smiled helplessly.

What did she think? Dad doesn't say it, he has his father's hardships.

It seems that she has been too idle lately, and she has started to think crankily.

Lu Biqian shook her head and smiled, she slowly turned around, walked slowly along the stone path, and instructed the maid who followed the trend: "After returning to the house, sort out the idle items in the house, put them aside usefully, keep them for backup, if it is just an ornament, take it and exchange it for silver money." Also, tell the housekeeper to send the account book to my room immediately, and bring the key to the storehouse, and I will take inventory myself. ”

This is a big move, and the house hasn't worked so hard for a long time, why? The maid didn't know what to do, opened her ignorant eyes, looked at her, and asked, "Miss, what are you going to do?" ”

Lu Biqian's footsteps paused slightly, she hesitated for a moment, and after a while, she smiled lightly and whispered calmly: "Dad has a father's last resort, so let me bear it, I will do my best." ”

She just lied in front of her father. In fact, without her father's consent, how could she spend a penny on the family?

She actually lied to her father.

The smile on her lips was a little bitter, in Lu Biqian's eyes. There is a light of amazement.

And the maid beside her was even more confused.

Miss is so weak, what does she need to bear? The old man regards the young lady as a treasure, but he is afraid of melting in his mouth, so where can he give it? She doesn't understand what Miss means, but Miss has been smart since she was a child, and her thoughts and actions are far beyond ordinary people, and it is normal for her to not keep up.

Think so. The maid is also at ease.

The maid's expression. Lu Biqian didn't pay attention, after she took two steps, she suddenly paused, and said to the maid in a deep voice: "It's better to be." Will you stay first? ”

The maid was stunned. A look up. Seeing that the look on her own lady's face was quite complicated. She had never seen such a look on the young lady's face, and the maid hung her head, not daring to ask more. Nono should be.

What does it feel like to count money and count to have cramps in your hands? In her previous life, Tian Mi had never experienced a bit of a money machine, but now, she has experienced it firsthand, really, she is almost tired, and at the end, she really feels that there is no gold or silver, that is, a broken stone, which is not more valuable than dung.

In a few days, she had almost all kinds of contacts with Dezhuang, including the owner who was present in person to show her solemnity, and the housekeeper or something.

Later, if Xu Shi hadn't received the news, arrived in time, and took someone to take over the stall, I was afraid that she would be so daggled by the golden light and silver light that she couldn't open her eyes at this moment, instead of sitting on the roof, leisurely hanging in the evening breeze, chatting with people.

Looking at the villain who couldn't help but cover his mouth and yawn, Qiao Xuan casually put on a coat for her, and chatted: "Yan Ming is not a living bodhisattva who saves suffering, you come to the door to explain your intentions, and he promises to give 6,000 gold?" ”

Tian Mi unceremoniously wrapped her robe, shook her head, shrugged her small nose, and pouted: "Yan Ming is a lot of people, he won't do a loss-making business." He made a move, and in plain terms, it was because the fighting skills I had given him were unique enough to attract him a lot of business, so I asked for it, and he complied. Besides, although 6,000 gold is a lot, it is not a particularly big deal for him, and he can afford it completely. ”

"This is the second." Tian Mi yawned again, flattened her mouth, and muttered, "They are the same as Boss Zhang." Who doesn't know how Delong did it, and it didn't rely on promotion? Now that such a good opportunity is in front of them, to put it bluntly, it is to spend some money to buy a reputation, and they are extremely happy. ”

After a pause, she rubbed her sleepy watery eyes, and her long eyelashes blinked a few times, until she felt that the qi in front of her was extremely clear, and then she calmed down.

Her eyes fell quietly on the vast city in the distance, and after a while, she said softly: "But in addition to fame and fortune, there should be sincerity, right?" Who has not palpitated the living people who have seen this misfortune? People's hearts are flesh and blood, so what kind of process can be completely indifferent? ”

Yes, how hard should you be so hard-hearted that you can ruthlessly abandon it?

Fortunately.

Qiao Xuan's dark eyes fell on the girl beside him who was very sleepy, and when it came to his mouth, he swallowed it back and said softly: "Go back to the house and rest." ”

Tian Mi shook her head stubbornly, her clear eyes blinked slowly, pursed her lower lip, and whispered, "I can't sleep." ”

Although she was very sleepy, she just knew that she would not be able to sleep, because although her body was very tired, her head was empty, a state of vacuum, in this state, the more she told herself not to think about anything, the more light and shadow appeared, and it was so depressed that people wanted to hit the wall.

She didn't want to hit the wall, she was stupid enough.

Qiao Xuan saw her elbows propped up on her knees, her short hands holding her palm-sized cheeks, like a sunflower, looking up at the bright moon hanging obliquely in the sky with a depressed face.

Inexplicably, Qiao Xuan's pale red lips hooked, he nodded, his dark eyes looked at the lights of thousands of homes in the city, and turned his head sideways to say to her: "Look, many people can't sleep." ”

Yes, a lot of people can't sleep.

Tian Mi sighed.

The epidemic in the city has been effectively controlled with the efforts of many parties, but after the doctors left the city, there was no news of it, and they did not know whether they were alive or dead.

Qiao Xuan said that if there is no news, it is the best news, but this reason does not make people feel at ease.

"Why are you frowning?" Qiao Xuan looked at Tian Mi, who had a bitter and hateful face, and said with a smile: "It's all wrinkled into a little old man." ”

Tian Mi wanted to laugh, but after trying a little harder, she still didn't laugh, so she cried and laughed: "It's obviously an old woman." ”

Qiao Xuanxiao bent his eyebrows, in his dark eyes. The stars are shining brightly.

Are they happy in their suffering?

Laughing and smiling, after all, she was still powerless, Tian Mi calmed down, looking at the gray smoke swirling in the distant city, and unknown birds swirling over the city wall, she was silent for a long time, and finally couldn't help but say the somewhat naïve and very disrespectful words: "Actually, these things." It could have not happened. Isn't it? ”

Qiao Xuan is so exquisite, even if there is no prompt, he can understand it in his heart, this girl. I must have thought of the decree that the Holy One had given in the first place.

In her words. This society is authoritarian and dictatorial. In this system, the Emperor's Mandate is the Mandate of Heaven. What the Holy One wants to do, he doesn't need any reason at all, and he doesn't need to be approved by anyone.

The divine right of the monarch, who can stop it?

Qiao Xuan was silent, but Tian Mi said clearly: "If there is no tax increase, there will be no food shortage, no people will abandon the land and flee, there will not be so many people who fall ill on the road, and there will not be so many people struggling to survive in the narrow area of the shack area, so it will not lead to a large-scale outbreak of epidemics." ”

Amber eyes were quiet and deep, she slowly blinked her long and curly eyelashes, looked at the majestic and magnificent city tower in the dark night, and said in a condensed voice: "The economy has always been a whole, and the whole body is affected by a hair, and the saint sits on thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and holds the power of the world, not to mention that no matter how big or small, he can't escape his eyes, at least all kinds of situations in various places, in general, he understands." The tax increase was a major event for the dynasty, and I don't believe it, because he didn't think about the situation that might arise beforehand. ”

"That's simply not possible." Tian Mi shook her head categorically and said calmly: "Because even if you take 10,000 steps back, even if he really doesn't know, what about the ministers?" Do ministers only know how to do what they are told? What does the household do? Will you not write a specific plan and comprehensively analyze the pros and cons? Those who can stand in the court can't all be wine bags and rice bags that only take Yulu and don't do practical things, right? ”

It was also Qiao Xuan who was listening to it, if it was someone else, just by her few words, don't think about it.

It was precisely because the person next to her was Qiao Xuan that Tian Mi dared to speak out.

Her eyes were shining, she was excited, there was already a little stalk in her throat, she said bluntly: "It's hard for me to believe it, and accept it, this is a mistake in decision-making." Qiao Xuan, do you know? So many human disasters are brought about by a person's light words, why, on his own mistakes, should others bear the tragic consequences? I'm sorry to be useful, but what else do you need to do on official errands? Besides, that person must not even be able to say sorry! ”

She tilted her head sideways, took a deep breath, reached out to cover her eyes, and forced her congested brain to calm down, and after a moment, her voice lowered, calm but dry, "The higher the position, the less reckless you can be, but instead, the truth is often the opposite." ”

Put power in a cage, and many years later, this is still people's expectations.

Yes, hopefully.

Qiao Xuan's gaze fell on the girl beside him, he clearly saw the stunned look on her face, saw the deepest expectations and disappointments in her eyes, and saw a mature soul that did not belong to this immature body.

Suddenly he found that it was difficult for him to look at her with the eyes of a little girl, even if she was so short and small, like soft and soft dough.

However, the person in front of him who was holding his cheeks and sulking with himself because of other people's affairs was the soft-faced man.

It's a paradoxical feeling, even he can't tell.

It was the first time he felt that there were some things that he didn't have to figure out so clearly, and just follow his feelings.

The big palm touched the top of her black hair, he smiled lightly, there was a bright light in his dark eyes, shining gently, and said lightly and tenaciously: "Good, the wind is clear and the moon is clear, you will see that day." ”

Will it? Tian Mi raised her head, and in Qiao Xuan's dark eyes, she saw a dazzling light like a star, peaceful, firm, and confident.

Why did she think it sounded like a promise?

Although he felt that he really didn't need to make such a promise to her, for some reason, he suddenly felt that his heart was settled and he could sleep.

Well, I can really sleep in peace.

As he spoke, the long, thick, curly eyelashes pressed down, and the eyelids seemed to be overwhelmed, and they immediately closed.

Qiao Xuan narrowly caught the body that fell down, hugged the soft ball, and for a while, he couldn't cry or laugh.

For the first time in these days, Tian Mi had a good night's sleep. (To be continued......)
