Chapter 52: Stones

Previous Chapter

The carriage drove slowly through the streets, the horses' hooves staggered, a loud cry in their noses, a breath of white air, and a long neigh.

Sitting on the cushion made of silk, Zhao Ping did not feel the fluctuations of the carriage at all, the sound insulation effect of the carriage was very good, and sitting inside was not affected by the hustle and bustle outside.

At this time, Zhao Ping looked at Qin Shuirou with a calm face, but he was very speechless in his heart. Since getting into the carriage, Qin Shuirou lowered her head and held a book and didn't know what she was reading, and reacted slowly, and the two people in the carriage fell into an awkward silence, making Zhao Ping not know how to open his mouth if he wanted to ask.

Fortunately, God did not let this silence last long, and after the horses let out a long neigh, Zhao Ping finally arrived at his destination, the Qin Mansion.

The eaves and corridors of the Qin Mansion are connected, like a cyan dragon, winding a mile away, like a castle with strong barriers.

After Qin Shuirou arrived at her house, she resumed her usual posture as a young lady, leading Zhao Ping around the Qin family and introducing the scenery in the Qin family.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Qin Shuirou was still interested, and was ready to continue to take Zhao Ping to visit, and the servant on the side had to remind Qin Shuirou: "Miss, the eldest lady ordered to go to the living room to eat after coming back, and the eldest lady has already prepared wine and food and waited in the living room for a long time." ”

"It's Shui Rou's fault, presumably Zhao Gongzi is already hungry, come with me to the living room to eat, and introduce you to my mother by the way." ”

"Okay, I'll bother Miss Qin to lead the way. ”

Zhao Ping followed Qin Shuirou through a bamboo forest, and then came to the living room, a large table of exquisite banquets had been made, and two women and a man were sitting on the table.

Qin Shuirou saluted the woman sitting in the first seat, pointed at Zhao Ping and said, "Mother, this is my life-saving benefactor I told you before, Zhao Ping, Zhao Gongzi." ”

Yan Taomin showed a gentle smile on his face, looked at Zhao Ping with satisfaction, got up and bowed to Zhao Ping, his posture was very low, but he was embarrassed by the latter.

"Thank you Zhao Shaoxia for saving my family Shuirou, please take a seat!" Yan Taomin glanced at Qin Shuirou with doting eyes, and pulled Zhao Ping to sit beside him.

Everyone sat down and staggered, chatting happily, Zhao Ping's pampering and humiliation were not shocked, and his calm attitude made Yan Taomin feel more satisfied the more he looked at Zhao Ping, and his heart finally settled on his previous thoughts.

"I don't know if Zhao Shaoxia is there, why have I never heard of Zhao Shaoxia's ability?"

Seeing that Yan Taomin inquired about his origin, Zhao Ping didn't care much, and casually drank the wine in the cup, and said in a flat tone: "I'm not from Yongzhou, and it's not surprising that Mrs. Yan hasn't heard of it." ”

"I traveled all the way from Youzhou, and I used to be an elder of a small sect, so it's normal that I don't have much fame. ”

Zhao Ping's face was as plain as usual, it didn't look like he was lying, Yan Taomin thought that Zhao Ping had killed Xiong Li's right-hand man, and he couldn't be a member of the Tiger Gang, and the smile on his face was even worse at the moment.

"I wonder if Zhao Shaoxia can do me another favor to the Qin family?"

Zhao Ping, who was thinking about how to get the purse on Qin Shuirou's waist, was stunned when he heard Yan Taomin's words, hesitated for a moment and replied: "I don't know what Mrs. Yan needs to help with, and I will definitely help Mrs. solve it if I can do it." ”

Zhao Ping has passed the age of being stunned, it's not that others will give their hearts to others if they say a few good words to themselves, Zhao Ping's subconscious meaning is that if it is too difficult, he doesn't want to help, it's just that he can't do it.

Yan Taomin heard the meaning of Zhao Ping's words, but there was no trace of annoyance on his face, and his tone revealed an innate confidence.

"Zhao Shaoxia is too modest, with Zhao Shaoxia's ability, this matter is just a gesture for Zhao Shaoxia, I want Zhao Shaoxia to help me kill someone. ”

A fine light flashed in Zhao Ping's eyes, he lowered his head and played with the cup in his hand and was silent, just when everyone thought that Zhao Ping would not agree, Zhao Ping, who lowered his head, raised his head and stared straight at Yan Taomin with his eyes.

"Madame wanted me to help kill the leader of the LTTE. Although it was a rhetorical question, Zhao Ping's tone revealed affirmation.

Yan Taomin's eyes flashed with a strange brilliance, she didn't expect Zhao Ping to guess her intentions from just a few words of her own, seeing that Zhao Ping saw through it, Yan Taomin didn't hide it, and replied generously: "That's right, but it's not just Zhao Shaoxia who is going to assassinate alone, just help on the side at that time, if it is done, what does Shaoxia have to ask for, just say that glory and wealth are just a trivial matter." ”

Although Zhao Ping's face was calm, his head was thinking frantically, and for a moment, Zhao Ping looked directly at Yan Taomin and said in a deep voice: "Yes, but I have one condition, I want it." Zhao Ping said as he stretched out his hand and pointed to Qin Shuirou's waist beside Yan Taomin.

"Ahh

As soon as Zhao Ping's words fell, Qin Shuirou screamed in panic, the chopsticks in her hand fell to the ground, her cheeks instantly turned red, her eyes flashed, and she didn't dare to look up at Zhao Ping.

Zhao Ping didn't hear Yan Taomin reply to him for half a salary, and couldn't help muttering in his heart, could it be that they also knew that this purse was extraordinary, and they were reluctant to give it to themselves?

Looking around, seeing Yan Huifeng looking at him with an angry face, as well as Qin Shuirou's flushed face and Mrs. Yan's strange eyes, the fool understood what was going on. Zhao Ping had to smile bitterly and said, "Mrs. Yan, you misunderstood, I just want the purse around Miss Qin's waist." ”

Hearing Zhao Ping's Chen Qing, although Qin Shuirou was a little disappointed, she understood that now was not the time to consider the personal affairs of her children, so she untied the purse on her waist and handed it to Zhao Ping.

The purse is made of five-color silk threads, and the colored silk threads are embroidered on the colored silk to create a pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water, and the purse exudes a faint fragrance.

Zhao Ping poured the contents of the purse into his hand, and a phoenix ornament carved from a crystal clear stone was held in the palm of Zhao Ping's hand. Feeling the familiar atmosphere coming from the jewelry, Zhao Ping Gubo's unsurprised face couldn't help but have a hint of joy.

Putting the jewelry in his arms, Zhao Ping asked Qin Shuirou suspiciously, "I don't know where Miss Qin got this thing." ”

"This is something that my father got by chance, and he didn't know what it was, but it would make him healthy when worn for a long time, so he asked a skilled craftsman to take a part of the stone and carve it into an ornament and give it to me, and put the rest in the treasury. ”

Hearing that there was such a stone, Zhao Ping was overjoyed, and looked at Qin Shuirou with a bright light in his eyes.

"Shui Rou, you go to the treasure house and take the remaining stones and give them to Zhao Shaoxia. ”

"Yes" Seeing her mother speak, Qin Shuirou immediately went to the treasure house to get the stone.

Zhao Ping glanced at Yan Taomin deeply, and said in a deep voice: "Madame, don't worry, Madame's affairs will definitely do your best." ”

Hearing Zhao Ping's promise, Yan Taomin's face couldn't help but show a satisfied smile.
