The person who came was also dressed in black, covering his face with a black cloth, tall and strong, Song Xinshu thought that the person who came was a robber, and he was stunned for a moment.

Although Wu Xiuyuan was afraid, he still mustered up the courage to rush forward, raised his leg and kicked at the man.

The man didn't take the short Wu Xiuyuan in his eyes, and completely subdued him with a backhand, and Wu Xiuyuan stumbled and fell to the ground.

Song Xinshu originally wanted to outwit him, but when he saw Wu Xiuyuan being thrown to the ground, he suddenly became anxious and wanted to break free.

The man let go of her wrist, and a dull voice came from under the black mask: "Madam, the general sent me." ”

Song Xinshu was stunned, could it be Su Qing?

The man saw the puzzled look on Song Xinshu's face, took out a note from his arms and handed it to her, she opened it and saw that there was a sentence neatly written on it.

"All is well, don't read it."

It's Su Qing's handwriting!

Song Xinshu felt tears rush into his eyes all of a sudden, and asked anxiously: "Where is he now, is he okay?" ”

The man nodded and said, "The general is all right, specially sent me to tell Madame, please destroy the note after reading it, don't leave evidence, and don't mention the matter of meeting tonight to anyone, when the matter is settled, the general will naturally come back to meet Madame." ”

After the man finished speaking, she was about to leave, but suddenly stopped again, turned around and half-knelt in front of Song Xinshu, she was a little confused, and subconsciously took half a step back.

The man gently grasped her injured ankle and said, "Madame, bear with me." Then with both hands, he only heard the sound of "Gada", Song Xinshu couldn't help the pain and screamed out all of a sudden.

Wu Xiuyuan held her arm nervously, staring at the man's movements nervously and worriedly.

When the man had finished, he stood up, nodded to her slightly, and then left without looking back, quickly disappearing into the darkness.

Song Xinshu tried to move his ankles and found that he could barely walk on his own, and sure enough, people with kung fu were different.

There is no need to go to the outskirts of the western city now, Song Xinshu patted Wu Xiuyuan on the shoulder and said: "Let's go home, you can't mention to anyone if you meet someone else tonight, if someone asks, just say that I accidentally sprained it." ”

Wu Xiuyuan nodded seriously, hugged Song Xinshu's arm and said, "Madam, I will definitely practice martial arts well after I go back, no matter what kind of person I meet, I can protect Madame!" ”

Song Xinshu said with a smile: "Then for my own safety, I also have to find you the best master in Jinling City." ”

It took almost twice as long for the two to return to the North Jiangsu Tea House, Song Xinshu sent Wu Xiuyuan back to sleep, and he jumped back to the room.

She was reluctant to destroy the note Su Qing wrote to herself, took out a piece of cloth, wrapped it carefully, and hid it in a hidden corner of the room, so that no one should find out.

After doing this, she realized that the pain in her ankle was getting more and more intense, and she carefully took off her shoes and socks, and found that the entire ankle was swollen, and there were several broken skins.

She lay on the table in some frustration, not sleepy at all.

I've been busy with renovation for the past two days, and I've been injured, which will definitely slow down a lot of progress.

She casually took the stick that held the door, propped herself up and came to the kitchen, made a cup of milk tea, and put a lot of sugar in it.

At this time, only high-sugar things can soothe her emotions.

A few days later, Song Xinshu limped into the courtyard, look here and there, and Lu Line made a pair of crutches according to her command.

It's just that when I meet someone, I have to tell the reason for the broken foot that I have arranged in my heart, and she has to believe it herself if she tells too many lies.

Fortunately, the decoration matters have been carried out relatively smoothly in the past few days, everything is going according to what she imagined, although she has difficulty moving, but seeing her small empire gradually established, the excitement in her heart is overflowing.

Before she woke up that day, she heard a commotion in the yard, and thought that the land line had created some new invention, so she put on her clothes and went out of the door.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I went out, I bumped into the old housekeeper with a sad face.

Wu Ding said with a bitter face: "Madam, something is wrong?" ”

Song Xinshu had just woken up, his brain had not yet recovered, and when he heard such a sentence, his heartbeat accelerated.

"Something happened, you tell me slowly."

The old housekeeper frowned and said: "The batch of wallpaper that was shipped yesterday was placed in the lobby, and I was going to find a worker to paste it today, but I didn't expect to see it this morning, and there was nothing left after the theft!" ”

Song Xinshu frowned and said, "Are you sure it came last night?" ”

"Sure, I watched the workers unload it with my own eyes, and it was custom-made by Madame at a great price, what can I do......"

Song Xinshu glanced at the housekeepers standing behind the old housekeeper, all staring at her with their eyes, waiting to see what kind of instructions she had.

"Are you all here today?"

The old butler nodded and said, "It's all here." ”

"Butler, you can arrange for them to do other things first, and I will go to the government to report to the official now."

Song Xinshu looked at the people in the courtyard, and didn't find anyone with an abnormal look on his face, and after freshening up, he came to the Taishou Mansion.

There are no miscellaneous matters in the Taishou Mansion today, and Song Xinshu saw the Taishou as soon as he entered.

Zhang Guodong looked at her abnormal walking at a glance, and asked with concern: "Xinshu, are you injured?" ”

Fan also walked out of the back room when he heard the sound, saw Song Xinshu who was limping, grabbed her hand and said, "How did you get this, why did you get injured like this?" ”

Song Xinshu smiled and said: "If it's not in the way, it's just a little bit." She explained simply, and said straightforwardly what happened at the Subei Tea House this morning.

After hearing this, Zhang Guodong also tightened his brows, slapped the table angrily and said: "What kind of thief, dare to make a mistake in the Northern Jiangsu Tea House, now Jinling City doesn't know that you are my Zhang Guodong's daughter of you, it's too presumptuous!" ”

"Godfather, don't be angry, it's just that the thief stole a few wallpapers, it's not a big deal, it's just that such a thief has ruined the atmosphere of Jinling City, and it's really ugly to spread out."

"Xinshu, don't worry, the godfather will definitely arrest this thief and give you justice!"

Song Xinshu hurriedly stood up and saluted the two, Fan Shi held her hand, helped her to a chair and sat down, and chatted for a while as usual before leaving.

Along the way, Song Xinshu also felt strange in her heart, at first she thought it was a thief, after all, it was impossible for a thief outside to transport those wallpapers overnight, and why not steal some small valuable things, but steal wallpapers that are bulky and difficult to carry?

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, she hurried back to Subei Tea House on crutches, went straight back to her room, pushed the door in and found that there was nothing abnormal, sat at the table and poured a cup of cold tea to rest, could it be that she was nervous?

Suddenly, her nerves tightened, and she remembered where she had hidden Su Qing's note, and suddenly got up to check it.

Sure enough, there are traces of things around that have been turned over, and although the surrounding things have been carefully restored, they are still different from the previous placement.

Song Xinshu felt that he was shocked into a cold sweat, it seems that the drunkard didn't mean to drink!

She hurriedly took out the note and put it on her body, if Su Qing was found to have correspondence with her, she might be sentenced to a felony for leaking military secrets.

Did you be stalked last night?

Just as Song Xinshu was thinking, the door of the bedroom was suddenly opened.

She hurriedly stood up, and Ah Ja ran in and said, "Madam, Taishou has sent someone." ”

Song Xinshu walked out, took the official to check the place where the wallpaper was lost, and answered some regular questions.

Song Xinshu asked his subordinates to bring milk tea to entertain, and after a few simple words, the official messenger left with people, preparing to search in Jinling City on a large scale, after all, so many wallpapers are not easy to hide.

Song Xinshu was soulless all day, worried that someone was spying on him secretly, Ah Jay thought that Mrs. was worried about the wallpaper, so he brought a small pastry and said: "Madam, don't worry, the housekeeper has already sent someone to re-order the wallpaper." ”

Song Xinshu couldn't tell Ah Ya what he was worried about, so he could only bite a piece of osmanthus cake in a daze.

Song Xinshu's uneasiness lasted all day, and he immediately decided to find a martial arts master for Wu Xiuyuan.

Lu Line has a wide network in Jinling City, and the next day he found a master for Song Xinshu to open a martial arts hall in the city.

Song Xinshu entertained guests in the front hall, and when he saw that the person who came was tall and strong, his arms and legs were very strong, he looked like a practitioner, so he cleared his throat and said: "Although Uncle Lu said that you are the best martial arts master in Jinling City, but when you come to me to apply, you still have to show your hands." ”

The visitor did not speak, but walked out of the antechamber and looked around, finally fixing his gaze on the stone slab that was about to be paved aside.

He walked straight over, dragged up a stone slab, put one end on the flower bed platform, tied up a horse's step, carried enough strength, and slapped his palm on the bluestone slab.

The palm-thick bluestone slab was instantly broken in two, Song Xinshu's eyes widened in surprise, and the people working in the yard were also stunned.

Song Xinshu, who reacted, clapped his hands and said, "Good strength, good strength!" ”

"If Madame still wants to see it, just find someone to compete."

"No, no, no." Song Xinshu waved her hand again and again, as far as the people under her hands were concerned, if she didn't use three moves to fight him, she would be smashed into the Tianling cover.

Song Xinshu walked to the man's side, and the man was a head taller than her, which perfectly illustrated that people don't talk much.

"I have another request, I don't know if you can agree, that is, to be my personal bodyguard, usually responsible for the security of the yard, the housekeeper is old, responsible for the big and small chores of the tea house, and only listen to my assignment on weekdays."

Song Xinshu saw the hesitant look on his face, and hurriedly continued: "The question of price is negotiable!" ”

The man nodded, and agreed, and Song Xinshu was just about to ask his name, when he saw the housekeeper running over with an anxious face and said, "Madam, madam, the thief has been found!" ”
