Dressed as a villain's stepmother, I use spiritual springs to raise cubs

The leading official looked at her for a long time, narrowed his eyes, and slammed the wine cup in his hand: "You bitch, did you take money from some caravan and want to use us for help!"

The landlady's smile froze on her face, and she waved her hands again and again.

"What are you talking about, my lord..."

What responded to her was the officer drawing a knife, a flash of silver light flashed, and the sharp blade touched the proprietress' neck.

The proprietress was shocked, and the teams who were about to leave were all afraid to speak.

Instead, Xia Bai'an saw that the situation was not good, and walked forward slowly. Without waiting for Qian Mingshu to stop her, she raised her hand and lightly pressed it on the official's blade. Feeling cold, I couldn't help holding my breath.

this woman!Are you not afraid of being hacked directly?

"Don't think that if you are from Jishitang, I dare not touch you!" The official's eyes became a little colder.

Xia Bai'an shook his head: "I saw that my lord is not an ordinary person, and he seems to have some contacts with Ji Shitang, so I came forward to stop him."

"What do you mean?"

"Madam proprietress, this shop seems to have been open for more than ten years. The eaves tiles have been replaced not long ago, and the wooden wall on the west side has also been replaced. It can be seen that she has lived here for a long time and knows the ten miles and eight villages very well. Regardless of whether she took anyone's money , at least in front of the capital, at the feet of the emperor, she dare not lie to you, my lord, I am afraid that the thing about the refugees and bandits is not a fake." Xia Baian said slowly and methodically, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "Also, my lord should be careful in doing things, It seems that the errand is secret, if there are many people, it's better to hide it, isn't it?"

The proprietress shrank her pupils, watched the blade slowly move away in front of her, patted her chest with lingering fear, and her feet softened.

Xia Bai'an raised his hand to support her, and saw the official staring at him.

"My lord, don't look at me like that. I have some connections with Ji Shitang. If I can help you a little bit, it will be easier for me in the future. I'm not afraid of being seen by my lord for these dirty thoughts, I'm just afraid that something will happen to my lord." This incident has also affected the caravans in our hometown."

Xia Bai'an put his position rightly, without hiding his purpose on the surface.

Moreover, every point she said is what officials care most about.

They obviously don't want people to know what's in the box, but they carefully protect the injured person in the box, which is a bit contradictory.

But their purpose is also simple and clear, to bring people alive and unknown back to the capital.

Since Xia Bai'an knew their purpose, he would naturally prescribe the right medicine.

And when she finished speaking, the official looked around, he was not sure who bribed the proprietress, but it is also a good way to use a caravan as a cover, so he pointed directly at Xia Bai'an: "You guys, come with us... Besides, The first team from the frontier and the team replaced by the southern waterway, come with us, and the rest... don't care if you put money in it or not! My lord will not help!"

Hearing this, Mo Che smiled helplessly.

This woman obviously stuffed the money herself and asked the proprietress to speak up.

Now when the officials found out, they threw the black pot on other people's heads steadily, and went up to meet him instead.

Seeing that the crisis was lifted and Xia Bai'an's affairs were settled, the proprietress breathed a sigh of relief.

When leaving, the proprietress still called Xia Bai'an over alone, and handed a jade finger to her.

Xia Baian was puzzled.

How could someone send a defective product? This is obviously not real jade.

But the proprietress still smiled slightly: "It's not good for me to do things today, and I asked the girl to come forward. It's because I didn't do things carefully... But my man also has a shop in the capital. If the girl wants to use her intelligence in other places in the future, or If you want someone, you can bring this thing to my man."

"Your husband's name?"

"You'll know when you go."

The proprietress looked at her with a smile, and took a deep look at Mo Che's movement of leading the children into the car, "Qingshan Town, the second county magistrate was changed, but the business road was kept. The Jishitang in Qingshan Town is rarely compared with the ones in the capital. Ji Shitang sent a letter. Miss Xia, this jade ring finger, I have the right to place a bet on you."

Xia Bai'an clenched the jade wrench tightly in his hand, and watched the proprietress turn into the inn like a butterfly again, unconsciously clenched his fingertips tightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up deeply.

The proprietress has seen that she has something to do with what happened in Qingshan Town.

And this jade wrench...

She was worried that she would not have any connections of her own when she went to the capital, so wouldn't the connections just come to her door?

The surrounding area of ​​the capital is indeed Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Who would have thought that there would be a small innkeeper on the road who knows everything with his hands and eyes open to the sky.

Xia Bai'an took the jade finger back and told Mo Che about it.

Mo Che played with the jade wrench finger in his hand with ulterior motives, and raised his eyebrows to look at Xia Bai'an: "You can always meet all kinds of people who can be used."

"It's all about comparing your heart with your heart. I came forward just now, firstly to clean myself up, and secondly, I don't want the proprietress to be killed because of my bribe." Xia Bai'an smiled lightly.

And Mo Che's gaze was still firmly stuck to her body.

It seems that no matter when, Xia Bai'an always has some strange encounters.

It should be said that this woman is lucky.

Or is it that she has a great ability to meddle in other people's affairs.

Mo Che restrained his eyes and returned the jade finger to her, but Xia Bai'an pushed it back: "I don't understand the twists and turns in the capital. You can use this thing for yourself. I'm only responsible for taking care of the children and doing business."

"Really?"

"You don't believe me?" Xia Bai'an narrowed his eyes slightly.

"I believe what you say, but I don't believe that you can do what you say."

Mo Che laughed, took out a silver hairpin from his bosom and put it on for Xia Bai'an. He raised his hand to brush away the messy hair around her ear, and even pressed down her slightly wrinkled hair with his fingertips in the rickety carriage. The skirt, "It's too plain."

Xia Bai'an frowned.

This man started to dislike him even before he arrived in the capital?

Dissatisfied, she turned her head away to take a nap.

Mo Che's eyes flashed blankly for a moment. He didn't know what he said wrong, but he was just persistent in sorting everything out for Xia Bai'an.

Even the proprietress in her 30s is more beautifully dressed than her.

What a pity for Xia Bai'an's face.

The three children sat in a row by the door, and it was the first time they saw their father being so proactive. Mo Xue couldn't help but whisper, "Daddy likes mother so much."

"It's not... hiss—"

Xia Bai'an suddenly raised his head like a cat with its tail trampled on, and because Mo Che was still hooking her hair, he let out a cry of pain.

Gritting her teeth, she turned her head and saw some black hair hanging from Mo Che's hands.

"...why are you still messing with my hair?"

"very ugly."

Mo Che only uttered these three words, threw away those soft black hairs casually, and directly pulled Xia Bai'an in front of his eyes, and re-tied her hair.

Xia Bai'an knew that he was not from this world, so it was difficult for her hair and dress to catch up with the trend of this era.

But why... Mo Che is so proficient in curling hair for others?

Xia Bai'an couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "No wonder you can become Sea King..."

"What did you say?" Mo Che gently tugged at her hair.

Xia Bai'an took a deep breath, met the man's cold eyes, and yelled muffledly: "It hurts."
