Chapter 206: Lifting a Rock to Shoot Yourself in the Foot
"Sir." The nurse lowered her head, not daring to look at the master in front of her.
"This is the accommodation fee for you, I will have someone send you out of the capital, I hope you don't appear in the capital in the future." Xiao Jincheng lost a bag of money in the nurse's arms.
The nurse took the money bag and did not look at how much money it contained, but knelt on the ground and begged.
"Master, the slave knows that it is wrong, beg the master not to drive the slave away."
"I remember you said this before, I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it, and you moved your crooked mind again and again. Needless to say, take the money and go. After Xiao Jincheng said this, he called the people who had been arranged a long time ago and asked them to send the nurse away.
He had reached the limit of his tolerance for the nurse, and if it weren't for her taking care of the little portion, he would have driven her away a long time ago.
Soon after the nurse was sent away, Xiao Xiaoxiao ran over and cried and beat her father.
"Bad daddy, why did you drive away the nurse, you are a bad daddy."
Xiao Jincheng let her daughter beat her, anyway, her little fist didn't hurt when she hit her body. Just watching his daughter shed tears, his heart softened.
He squatted down, grabbed his daughter's little fist, and comforted: "Daddy didn't drive away the nurse." ”
"Then why did I hear that the people in the house secretly said that my father sent the nurse away." Xiao Xiaoxiao obviously doesn't believe her father, after all, her father often lies.
"Xiaoxiao, you have to believe in Dad. The nurse told her father that she had found her relatives, so she left, and her father gave her a sum of money. Doesn't Xiaoxiao want the nurse to reunite with her relatives? Xiao Jincheng made up a reason.
After all, children are children, and what adults say makes a little sense, so she believes it.
No, after listening to her father's words, Xiao Xiaoxiao was skeptical, and she didn't cry anymore.
"Daddy's true?"
"Really, daddy lied to you that you were Xiaohua."
Hearing that Daddy compared himself to a little flower, Xiao Xiaoxiao laughed.
"Then who will take care of Xiaoxiao from now on?" Xiao Xiaoxiao puffed up his face.
"Don't worry about this little one, Daddy will find a grandma to take care of you when the time comes, and let the grandma teach you to play the piano and dance when the time comes." Xiao Jincheng felt that it was time to find a mother who knew the rules to teach her daughter.
As soon as he heard that he was going to learn to play the piano and dance, Xiao's little face wrinkled together.
"Don't, don't learn that."
Xiao Jincheng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then what do you want to learn?" ”
"Xiaoxiao should be the same as my aunt."
Xiao Jincheng understood, and suddenly his head flashed, and the corners of his lips hooked up and felt that it was not bad to be like Qiao Sheng, so he nodded.
"Okay."
Xiao Xiaoxiao saw that her father agreed, and threw herself into her father's arms, but she still asked a question about the nurse.
"Daddy, did the nurse really just find a relative?"
"Really." Xiao Jincheng nodded.
Xiao Xiaoxiao believed it and didn't question it.
At noon, Yang Sheng came back, and He Zeng greeted him when he entered the door.
"What is Madame doing?"
"Madame is in the study." After He Zeng finished speaking, he frowned, and he hesitated whether to say it or not.
Yang Sheng saw that he had something to say, but he didn't say it when he saw that he was grinding and chirping, so he took the initiative to ask.
"If you have anything else to say, just say it, why have you stayed in this house for a long time and become such a mother-in-law?"
After listening to the general's words, He Zeng planned to let go.
"Ahem." He cleared his throat, and then said, "General, Lord Xiao took Madame back to the house for tea, and then secretly touched Madame's hand. ”
"You say it again?" Yang Sheng looked at He Zeng with a calm face.
He Zeng looked at the general's appearance, swallowed his saliva, and regretted saying this a little.
"That's it, needless to say, if you take this into the palace to meet the emperor, you will say that Lord Xiao Jincheng Xiao is the best candidate for disaster relief this time."
He Zeng almost choked on his own saliva, and he hurriedly asked the general.
"General, can this Lord Xiao come back if he goes?"
Yang Sheng looked at He Zeng, his eyes narrowed slightly: "Whether he can come back or not, is it a matter of concern to you?" ”
"Yes, my subordinates will enter the palace." He Zeng took the general's token and left.
It's terrible, the general is really angry, and he does everything so desperately.
But think about it, he is also superfluous to worry about, Xiao Jincheng is the son of Lord Xiao, Lord Xiao is so powerful in the DPRK, presumably Xiao Jincheng is not a simple character.
After He Zeng left, Yang Sheng saw why he brought a group of people in, and they all held a pot of flowers in their hands, these flowers were beautiful and strange.
Seeing this, he frowned.
"What are you doing here?"
"My subordinates will rearrange the garden in our house." Why think of the garden he saw in Xiao Mansion today, he swore to touch the same one in Helian Mansion, no, it should be better than Xiao Jincheng's.
"How do you think of rearranging the garden?" Yang Sheng understands why bother, it is impossible to do something for no reason. "It's not because of that Lord Xiao, but Mrs. really likes the flowers in Lord Xiao's house, so after the subordinates come back, they will go to the flower market to choose flowers." Speaking of flowers, why bother pointing to the flowers these people are carrying, and asking the general with a smile, "General, what do you think of these flowers?" Isn't it beautiful
? ”
"General." Yang Sheng looked at these flowers, walked to one of the pots, picked a flower and waved his hand, "Okay, if you want to toss, then toss." ”
He finished speaking and walked in the direction of the study.
Coming to the door of the study, Qiao Sheng in the room found that the light had dimmed, and raised his head to look at the door.
Seeing that it was Yang Sheng, he smiled at him.
"I'm back."
"Well, what are you looking at?" Yang Sheng walked in, his eyes glancing at the thick stack of things on the table in front of her.
"Ledger."
"Isn't that what he sees?" In Yang Sheng's mouth, he was referring to He Lianyu.
"He's been busy lately, so I'll see it." After Qiao Sheng finished speaking, he closed the account book, and then asked Yang Sheng, "What is the emperor looking for you?" ”
"Regarding the disaster relief, the officials sent before were killed by robbers on the way there, and the food for disaster relief was also robbed."
"Wouldn't that be a re-send-off?" Qiao Sheng twisted his eyebrows, "Could it be for you to go?" ”
"......" Yang Sheng was silent.
His silence was acquiescence, Qiao Sheng twisted his brows slightly, and then said to him.
"Then take me."
"Okay." The reason why Yang Sheng didn't object was because he felt that she was more at ease in front of his eyes.
"After the emperor allocates the disaster relief food, give it to me." After all, she has a mobile warehouse, as long as she doesn't take it out, others don't want to get it.
Yang Sheng nodded without hesitation, after all, it was indeed safest to stay with her, and it was convenient to go to Zhou Cheng in disguise.
Suddenly, Yang Sheng thought of something, and he turned around and left.
Qiao Sheng watched him leave like this, chasing him out and only seeing his afterimage.
"What happened? What are you doing in such a hurry? She muttered to herself.
Xiaorui came over, saw her wife standing at the door, and stepped forward.
"County Lord, lunch is ready."
"Well, let's put it aside for now, and I'll eat it when the general comes back."
Xiaorui twisted her eyebrows, the general went out in a hurry just now, there must be something, and he will be able to come back in a while.
Thinking about it, he persuaded the county lord: "County lord, there should be something going out in a hurry when the general goes out in a hurry, or the county lord you should eat first." ”
Qiao Sheng thought for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, then you can bring me two dishes and a bowl of rice." ”
"Okay, slave and maid will go." Xiaorui smiled.
Yang Sheng went directly to the palace after leaving the mansion, and halfway through, he frowned when he saw He Zeng who came back.
He Zeng saw the general coming, and ran over with a smile.
"General, the matter is done, the emperor has sent someone to Xiao Mansion to deliver the decree."
Yang Sheng glanced at He Zeng, and said resentfully: "I don't usually let you do anything without seeing your hands and feet so fast, but today's work efficiency is really extraordinarily fast." ”
"Hehe, that's natural, as long as it doesn't make Lord Xiao feel good, his subordinates will definitely do it as quickly as possible."
He Zeng thought that the general should reward him. But why is the general's face so bad, could it be that he is not good enough?
"General, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing." He couldn't complain about this matter, after all, he hadn't turned around before.
He Zeng was a little confused, and felt that the general was strange, and even a little inexplicable.
"Go home." Yang Sheng dropped these two words, turned around and left, and He Zeng hurriedly followed.
Xiao Mansion, Xiao Jincheng was accompanying his daughter to lunch, and the housekeeper walked in.
"Young master, someone came from the palace, saying that he asked you to go out to receive the order, but my father-in-law said that he was still in a hurry, so he didn't come in."
Xiao Jincheng twisted his eyebrows, what is the holy decree at this time? Still, he put down his chopsticks and got up to go out.
"Serve the young lady to dinner." After saying this, he left.
When he came to the door, his father-in-law saw Xiao Jincheng and directly spread out the holy decree.
"Xiao Jincheng took the order."
"The minister takes the order." Siu Jincheng knelt down on one knee.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said that the disaster in Zhoucheng was serious, and Xiao Jincheng and Yang Sheng were sent to Zhoucheng for disaster relief." After reading the holy decree, the father-in-law lowered his head and looked at Xiao Jincheng, "Lord Xiao, take the decree." ”
Xiao Jincheng stretched out his hand to catch the holy decree, then got up and asked, "Father-in-law, why did the emperor let me go to Zhoucheng for disaster relief?" ”
"I don't know about this miscellaneous family, but the deputy next to General Yang came before the emperor's decree, maybe Lord Xiao went to ask General Yang, and the miscellaneous family still had something to do, so he left."
"Father-in-law walks slowly."
Seeing off his father-in-law, Xiao Jincheng instructed the housekeeper behind him: "Take care of Miss, I'll go to Helian Mansion." ”
"Okay." The butler nodded, and watched his master walk away before turning to go in.
Xiao Xiaoxiao saw that only the housekeeper came back, and asked, "Uncle housekeeper, is my father?" ”
"The young master has something to do."
After listening to the housekeeper's words, Xiao Xiaoxiao's facial features wrinkled together.
"Hmph, you don't eat with me."
The housekeeper walked over with a smile and coaxed the young lady: "Miss, don't be angry, the young master will come back after finishing things." Come to the slave to feed Miss, what do you want to eat, Miss? ”
"I won't eat it." Xiao Xiaowan jumped off the stool and left. The housekeeper put down the dishes and chopsticks and asked the maid here to clean up, and then he hurriedly went to chase the young lady.
