The Beloved in the Palm

Chapter 43 Miss Xue is a wonderful person!

Xue Qingyin looked at Zhao Xufeng's gold pocket and was stunned for a moment.

It's not that the slimy look is disgusting.

She just suddenly remembered the public service announcement she had seen on TV a long time ago.

The general idea is that an old man suffering from Alzheimer's disease, also known as Alzheimer's disease, can no longer recognize his son, but he will always remember to grab dumplings and put them in his pocket at the dinner table.

Because he firmly remembered that his son loved to eat this.

Just like this public service announcement.

The young father-in-law of Zhao Guogong's mansion did not remember that his mother had been dead for many years.

But he always remembered to bring delicious food to his mother.

Xue Qingyin herself cherishes the hard-won love Mrs. Xue has for her.

She thought for a moment and whispered, "I didn't wash my hands."

Manager Zhao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, thinking that this was a good excuse!

It ruins the face of the Duke’s government! She herself was exempted

This Miss Xue is really smart!

Zhao Xufeng didn't quite understand what Xue Qingyin meant, so he couldn't help but look disappointed and even his shoulders slumped.

It looks like a big dog with its tail hanging down.

At this time, Xue Qingyin asked the maid to fetch a clean handkerchief from the carriage.

With her handkerchief on her head, she pinched a piece of flower-embellished glutinous rice cake from Zhao Xufeng's gold bag, and then took a bite.

"It's a little cold," she said. "Next time, I'll put it in a box and it will taste even better." After she said that, she pointed at the Jade Dew Ball and said, "I like this one too, but it's a pity that it's almost gone. You have to use it." With ice?"

Zhao Xufeng's eyes lit up.

He looked at Xue Qingyin intently, not understanding what she was saying, but he listened attentively and happily.

Manager Zhao on the side was even more shocked.

He looked at Xue Qingyin blankly, and then couldn't help but laugh.

Is the Xue family girl more than just ice-snow smart? It is not an exaggeration to say that Hui Xin is a naughty person!

He said hoarsely from the side: "I will definitely serve it with ice next time."

After hearing this conversation, others could naturally see the close relationship between the Xue family and the Duke of Zhao's house.

But I've never heard of it before...

They couldn't help but wonder secretly.

In fact, the main thing was what happened at the princess's house, and the subsequent confrontation in Furong Garden, which was concealed from the outside world.

How can others know these secrets?

Naturally, it is not clear when the Xue family became involved with the Zhao Guogong Mansion.

Xue Qingyin finished eating the piece of rice cake.

Zhao Xufeng calmed down and stared eagerly at the handkerchief in her hand, as if hoping she would eat more.

Manager Zhao couldn't help but laugh, and then he had time to look around.

Soon, he discovered that this was not a good place for tea.

Since he can achieve the position of the general manager of the Duke's Mansion, he is certainly not a fool.

General Manager Zhao thought about it and roughly understood what was going on. So before Xue Qingyin could speak, he spoke up: "Is this a fire? But the Xue family's property?"

Xue Qingyin nodded.

General Manager Zhao immediately turned to look at the right inspector, the soldiers of Jingzhao Mansion and others, and said in a low voice: "It is clear that the sky was set on fire for no reason, and we must investigate it to the end!"

These words naturally represent the meaning of the Duke's Mansion.

The right patrol envoy and others were shocked and said repeatedly: "This is natural!"

In fact, just because of Xue Shilang's name, they didn't dare to neglect him! It's just that there are many powerful people in the capital. If they dare to burn Xue Shilang's head, I'm afraid the person behind it is not easy to offend. Now that they have received a greeting from Duke Zhao's mansion, they can naturally put their worries behind them and it will be easier to do things!

Only the steward of the Silk Satin Shop looked strange at this moment.

I thought to myself, wasn’t it the people in your Duke Zhao’s mansion who started this fire?

Why does it look like a flood is going to flood the Dragon King Temple?

The steward quickly said: "It just so happens that there are still a few people from Duke Zhao's residence here."

Manager Zhao realized something was wrong as soon as he heard this, and immediately turned around and asked, "Where is it?"

The steward looked at the young people.

The young man's brows were frowning so hard that he could kill a mosquito. The few minions behind him were far inferior to him. They looked in the direction of Xue Qingyin in horror, and the two groups were fighting.

The long-term workers of the silk and satin factory who had been subdued finally got a chance. They struggled to get up from the ground, pointed at the young man and his group and cursed angrily: "It's all them. The eldest girl has to make the decision for us..."

Now the tide has turned.

Manager Zhao secretly cursed the damn thing.

He understood.

It turned out that these bullies had a conflict with the Xue family... If they were the ones who started the fire... Manager Zhao suddenly lost his face.

"People from the Duke's residence? Why have I never seen you?" Manager Zhao asked coldly.

Manager Zhao is not young anymore, but he has probably followed Duke Zhao for too long, so he has caught the aura of military service from Duke Zhao, and his cold face looks extremely intimidating.

The people behind the young man all knelt down with a "pop" sound one after another.

The young man could only lower his head and salute: "Little man Kong Qun. Two years ago, the little man followed his uncle to the house to pay a visit to the chief manager..."

Manager Zhao brought back some memories.

It really belongs to the family!

Kong Qun's uncle Kong Zhen was a smart man who knew what to do, so General Manager Zhao gave him part of the property in the Duke's mansion to take care of. Kong Zhen once mentioned to him that his nephew was a young man with great ambitions and abilities...

Manager Zhao was so angry that his scalp was throbbing.

Is this a great ambition?

Is this what it means to be capable?

Manager Zhao stepped forward and slapped Kong Qun.

His hand was so strong that Xue Qingyin could clearly hear the loud "slap". The man called "Kong Qun" turned his face away, and when he turned back, half of his face was swollen quickly, and the corners of his mouth were cracked.

"Kneel down." Manager Zhao said sternly.

The manager of the silk shop suddenly recalled the words of the eldest daughter of the Xue family in his mind -

"When they see me later, they will have to kneel down and kowtow to me!"

Look, they really knelt down.

Kowtow is not far away.

The manager of the silk shop suddenly felt proud, and his body, which seemed short in front of Kong Qun, seemed to be raised a lot in an instant!

The people around Kong Qun knelt on the ground, but he gritted his teeth and was reluctant to kneel.

Manager Zhao was not in a hurry, he just said coldly: "Don't want to kneel? Okay, then call your uncle. Those who should be beaten today will be beaten, and those who should be expelled from the Duke's Mansion will not escape."

"No! Please raise your hand, the chief manager... I am responsible for my own actions, so there is no need to ask my uncle." Kong Qun said, and knelt heavily on the ground.

The bones hit the ground, making a crisp sound.

Xue Qingyin felt pain when she heard it.

At this time, the right patrol envoy and others saw that this seemed to be dealing with "family affairs", so it was not good to stand aside, and hurriedly bowed and left first.

In a blink of an eye, there were only a few of them left here.

Kong Qun lowered his head and said: "I don't know the relationship between Miss Xue and the mansion. I acted rashly today, but the matter of the silk shop has nothing to do with us..."

Manager Zhao said angrily: "Dare you shirk it?"

He picked up a charred wood and raised his hand to hit Kong Qun on the back.

"Wait." It was Xue Qingyin who spoke.

Among those here today, besides Zhao Xufeng, Xue Qingyin was the only one who could stop him.

Manager Zhao suddenly stopped and looked back at her.

Kong Qun also raised his head suddenly, and looked at her with surprise like the others.

But Kong Qun's eyes were more complicated.

"These people in the Duke's Mansion are arrogant, which makes me unhappy. They should be punished. However, if they really did not do it, they should be given a chance to explain and ask clearly, so as not to let the real culprit go by mistake." Xue Qingyin said slowly.

It is still scary to have such a person who is always thinking about revenge on the Xue family behind the scenes.

There is no need to torture people into confessing just because they are annoying.

Xue Qingyin thought that after what happened today, they should call her "Grandma" when they see her again in the future.

Manager Zhao threw away the wood in his hand and said, "Why don't you thank Miss Xue?"

The complex look in Kong Qun's eyes froze.

He crawled on the ground, and then he kowtowed to Xue Qingyin and said, "Thank you, Miss Xue."

The manager of the silk shop was a little anxious.

The eldest lady didn't know what kind of person Kong Qun was... He was a vindictive villain!

Who cares if it was him today? First, take back the face of our Xue family! Put an end to the trouble first! Then who set the fire, one or two or three or four? In the end, isn't it the eldest lady who has the final say?

Xue Qingyin threw the handkerchief that had been used to hold the snacks on Kong Qun's head: "Here, wipe the blood."

After that, she turned her head and said, "Let's go, let's find a place and have some tea first."

Manager Zhao laughed: "...Okay!"

This Miss Xue is really a wonderful person!

Kong Qun grabbed the handkerchief and wiped his face with his head down.

The handkerchief still had the aroma of snacks, some sweet girly scent, and a very faint smell of medicine.

Kong Qun lowered his head even lower.
