Before Xia Hua could react, one of the guards stood in front of her and said with a smile: "Miss, please wait for a while. It seems that it is not convenient for my family to entertain guests now."

Smelling the strong smell of blood, Xia Hua's little face turned pale. She didn't dare to look inside, so she quickly nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

The guard only went in to report. I don't know how long it took before he ran out again: "Girl, please let me in."

Xia Hua swallowed again before slowly entering the yard.

When she came in, she saw that there was nothing in the yard except Mr. Xie and the guards around him, and she was relieved a little.

But as she got closer, she felt more and more that Xie Yuan was different from usual, and seemed to have a bit more cold evil energy.

When she arrived, she didn't dare to look directly at Xie Yuan. She immediately lowered her head and presented the box she brought: "Master Xie, my lady asked me to give this to you. She said it was a return gift for the New Year gift."

"Return gift?" Xia Hua heard the man's deep voice, which sounded very pleasant. It was different from many men's voices she heard in daily life. When she heard it, it made people feel very calm, like a jar of aged wine.

But despite this, she didn't dare to look up. In fact, when Mr. Xie was still in their house, she felt that he was very fierce, and she didn't dare to look at him more.

She nodded and took a step forward to hand the brocade box to the guard beside Xie Yuan.

Just when she was about to hand it to the man, her eyes suddenly saw a pool of blood on the ground that seemed to have been washed by water, so she froze in fear and dropped the brocade box in her hand.

In a flash, a big hand directly took the box.

Xia Hua raised her head to look, only to realize that Master Xie had caught it himself, so her heart dropped in her throat, but she was still so frightened that she quickly knelt on the ground: "It's all your fault, Master Xie, please forgive me!"

As she knelt down, the smell of blood became even stronger, and her eyes accidentally glanced at another entrance to the yard. It seemed that someone was carrying something covered with linen out.

Looking at the shape, it seems to be covering a person...

Xia Hua's breathing almost stopped for a moment.

But Xie Yuan ignored her. After taking the box, he opened it and read it.

I saw a piece of Hetian jade lying quietly in the box.

What is engraved on the jade plaque is just an ordinary landscape pattern, but the advantage is that the quality of the jade is excellent, and it is a high-quality warm jade that is difficult to find even if you have money.

But after Xie Yuan's eyes passed over the mountains and waters, he quickly stopped at the corner where a crescent moon was carved.

The crescent moon is not eye-catching. If you don't look carefully, you can't find it.

But Xie Yuan's fingers gently touched the crescent moon, and the cold evil aura on his body was instantly dissipated.

"Is this what your lady specially picked for me?" he asked warmly.

Seeing that he did not pursue her, Xia Hua asked, and immediately nodded: "It's your lord. Our lady just came back from the palace banquet last night. She didn't even sleep, so she ran to the warehouse to pick out gifts for your lord. It took me a full hour to finally pick this one!”

As soon as Xia Hua finished speaking, she felt the hem of Mr. Xie's clothes in front of her moved slightly, and then heard him say: "Get up, it's hard work for you to come here. If the jade medal didn't fall, it's nothing wrong."

This voice was like the sound of nature to Xia Hua at the moment, and she didn’t know if it was because her brain was prone to flashes of inspiration at the moment of life and death. After she stood up, something flashed through her mind, and she immediately added: "Although this slave is not the eldest lady's, I am a personal maid, but I often hear the eldest lady mentioning Mr. Xie to Chun Ya and Jin'er."

"Oh? What did you say?" Xie Yuan raised his eyes and finally looked away from the jade plaque, seeing Xia Hua's face clearly for the first time.

Xia Hua thought hard and finally thought of something: "The eldest lady seems to have said that Mr. Xie is indeed a rare and beautiful man..."

Su Youyue said this when she was looking at the portraits of those men who were looking for a husband for Su Rong. At that time, she was not satisfied with the last few remaining men and felt that their appearance was too ordinary.

Chunya happened to come in at that time, and said that these people's appearance could not be compared with Master Xie.

So Su Youyue said casually, after all, this was what she had always thought in her heart. From the previous life to this life, Xie Yuan had been down and out, but he had never been ugly.

When Xia Hua finished speaking, she felt that Mr. Xie was obviously stunned for a moment.

In her impression, Xie Yuan seemed to be a very calm person, and almost nothing could make him daze.

But just because of his words, he was stunned.

Not only was she stunned, but a moment later, she heard Mr. Xie ask in a very pleasant voice: "What else?"

Xia Hua really couldn't remember this time. After thinking for a while, she could only shake her head: "This slave rarely enters the inner room, so I only hear a few words, but every time I hear the young lady mention Mr. Xie. .”

Hearing this, Xie Yuan lowered his eyes and looked at the jade plaque in his hand. His gaze fell on the crescent moon, and he secretly felt a kind of loving tenderness.

Young moon, young moon, isn’t it the new moon?

He had long known that Mrs. Su gave her this name because there was a crescent moon hanging in the sky when she was born.

But she didn't expect that she would carefully choose a jade plaque with her name engraved on it.

"Li Ying." Xie Yuan called to his side.

Li Ying listened attentively when he was suddenly called and quickly responded: "My lord, my subordinate is here."

Your Excellency, weren't you listening to your wife? Why did you suddenly call yourself?

"Go and get some reward money." Xie Yuan ordered.

"Ah?" Li Ying was stunned for a moment, and was hit on the arm by Gao Sheng next to him. Only then did he realize that the master was actually going to give this girl a reward, so he hurriedly ran to get the money.

This is really unprecedented. Your Excellency has never given anyone a reward!

However, the return gift from the madam came in time. Otherwise, after killing those spies, your mood would have been cold for a long time. Unexpectedly, the madam would cheer you up right now.

Madam is really their living god and life-saving medicine!

Li Ying thought about it for a moment, came over with 50 taels of silver, and stuffed a handful into Xia Hua's hand: "Girl, here it is!"

After all, he had never rewarded anyone with money when he was with the adults. He really didn't know how much the reward would be for a while.

Xia Hua received the 50 taels of silver and was flattered. Her original fear suddenly disappeared because of these shiny silver ingots.

"My slave, thank you, sir!"

Xie Yuan glanced at the reward in her hand, responded calmly, and asked the guard guarding the door to send the person out.

After the others left, Xie Yuan glanced at Li Ying.

Li Ying was still having fun at first, but when Leng Buding saw this, he suddenly became excited: "Sir, what's wrong?"

Xie Yuan snorted coldly: "You have been with me for so long, how come you don't know how to reward others?"

After that, he quietly explained the secrets of giving rewards. At first, Li Ying was sweating coldly, but after listening to it, he realized that the master really understood the secrets here, so he expressed his admiration again. eyes.

After saying that, Xie Yuan waved his hand and asked a few people to clean up the blood on the ground before leaving.

Li Ying scratched his head: "My lord knows better. It seems that I gave you too much just now. My lord feels sorry for the money."

Gao Sheng patted him on the shoulder: "You are stupid, sir, how can you care about money? You can give rewards to people around your wife, no matter how much you give them, you don't feel bad. He just teaches you how to give out rewards in the future... As for who did you learn from? You didn’t learn how to give out rewards from Madam!”

"So, are you showing off your wife?" Li Ying was stunned. He couldn't have guessed that there was such a big trick.

Gao Sheng nodded with a teachable expression: "You, you are not too hopeless. Think about it, with the reserved temperament of Sir and Madam, we will have to rely on our help in the future. Thank you for your help, Sir." Of course there will be a big reward, so if you don’t have any help, forget it, but if you accidentally step on a trap, just wait for the adults to cut you off!"
