Chapter 150 A misunderstanding
He asked that damn woman why she was so resistant to him, it turned out that there was someone else in her heart.
"Xuan Lei, go check who this person called Manman is."
"Ah? Yes, I obey your command, but my lord, are these men or women?"
"If I knew everything, why would I need you to investigate? And why would I ask the people in the capital to find out who lost their patience?"
"Yes!"
Xuan Lei's eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately nodded in agreement, turned around and left the study.
After Xuan Lei left, Leng Yanxiu collapsed exhaustedly on the stool, a flash of scarlet in his eyes, and the fire poison that had been suppressed began to take effect again.
"Stupid woman..."
At this time, the study door was knocked open.
"Your Highness, Madam Hua asked me to bring you some ginseng soup."
Leng Yanxiu waved his hand, and the servant leaned forward with his eyes lowered, and placed the ginseng soup on his desk.
"Your Highness, Madam said that this ginseng soup will not taste good if it gets cold."
The servant glanced over cautiously and saw Leng Yanxiu pick up the bowl with an annoyed look on his face and drink it down in just a few gulps.
"Go down, don't bother me if there's nothing wrong."
The servant looked at the empty bowl with a gleam in his eyes, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and then he leaned over and left the study.
At this time, all the guests had left Qu's house in Lingshui Village, and the Liu family was in the front hall, checking the gifts brought by the guests.
At this time, the housekeeper Tian came to report that two more families came to give gifts.
"Who else could it be?" Liu and Yue Niang looked at each other in confusion.
Qu Jingyao asked Butler Tian to bring the person in.
A moment later, a strange old lady came in with Butler Tian, holding a brocade box. Following behind her was Master Liu, who worked with Qu Jingyao.
"This old servant greets Madam Qu and Miss Qu. My master is the owner of the embroidery workshop. He has something going on at home and cannot leave for the moment. He asked this old servant to deliver a housewarming gift. I hope Madam and Miss Qu will accept it."
The old lady bowed humbly.
Qu Jingyao then realized that it was Sister Wanniang's people. She asked Sister Wanniang what had happened.
"Don't worry, young lady. The boss hasn't encountered any problems. He just caught a cold these past two days. He was afraid of infecting others with the disease, so he simply didn't come today. The boss also said that he would come to apologize another day."
When Qu Jingyao heard what the nanny said, a smile appeared between her eyebrows.
"Sister Wanniang is so polite. Please tell Nanny that she has spent all the money. I will go to see her in two days and ask her to take good care of herself."
"Yes, I will definitely convey that. Young lady has guests here, so I won't bother you any further. I'll take my leave now."
The old lady bowed respectfully to everyone.
"Butler Tian, please send Madam out."
"Yes!"
The two of them left the front hall, and Master Liu at the back was invited by Qu Jingyao to sit closer.
"Sorry for neglecting Master Liu. Please take a seat."
"It's okay. Today, I came to give the young lady a housewarming gift. It seems that I am late. Please forgive me. I have been overwhelmed by the orders I have received in the past two days."
Master Liu bowed to everyone and said apologetically.
Qu Jingyao introduced Master Liu to the two sisters-in-law of the Liu family. They said that this Master Liu was the partner that had cooperated with their family.
"Master Liu, you're too polite." Mrs. Liu quickly ordered the servants to serve tea.
Master Liu pushed the gift box in front of her and took out a few banknotes behind the gift box.
Just as Qu Qingchen and the others were puzzled, they heard Master Liu explain, "Hehe...this is last month's share. I just happened to deliver it to the young lady today."
Mother Liu and son looked at each other. They got the share so soon?
"One thousand taels? It seems that Master Liu has quite a lot of orders. If he is really too busy to handle it, why not hire some help?"
Qu Jingyao pushed the banknote to her mother, then turned around and started chatting with Master Liu.
He just sighed and explained that it was not easy to train an apprentice in this world. Moreover, these patterns were unique to them, and the people they hired were not that reliable. If it really didn't work out in the future, they would hire two people.
Qu Jingyao nodded and motioned for Master Liu to have some tea.
"I won't stay long. I have housework to do, so I'll take my leave."
Qu Jingyao signaled Baiguo to bring over the new pattern she had drawn earlier.
Master Liu didn't expect that the girl would draw a new pattern so quickly. He gave her a thumbs up and praised her with Liu.
Even if this girl were placed in the capital, no one would be able to compare to her!
"Pfft, Master Liu, you're too kind."
At this time, Bai Guo came in with two patterns: "Master, I have brought them."
She gestured to Baiguo to hand the things over to Master Liu.
"Hahaha...Okay, then I won't stay any longer. Madam Qu, Master Qu, I'll take my leave first. Miss Qu, please stay."
Qu Jingyao smiled and nodded slightly at him.
Qu Qingchen stood up and walked Master Liu out.
Yue Niang took a sip of tea, then came to her senses and muttered in disbelief, "I only earned a thousand taels in this month?"
Liu was also surprised. Looking at the banknotes in front of her, she asked, "Yaoyao, is this furniture so popular?"
She smiled with her eyes curved, perhaps because people thought it was novel and practical.
"I'll leave this money with you, mother."
Qu Jingyao said this lightly, then stood up and said that she was tired and wanted to go back and rest.
As soon as he finished speaking, he was stopped by Liu.
"Wait a minute, what are you going to do with these gifts? You just left without even taking a look at them. You're such a carefree girl."
When Yue Niang heard what Liu said, she burst out laughing.
"Mom, don't we still have you and my aunt? See if there's anything you like. If not, just put it away first."
Yue Niang waved her hands, saying that she didn't want to worry so much. It was so easy for her to have her sister-in-law by her side.
"Don't even think about running away. Come and take a look. Is there anything you like?"
Qu Jingyao watched as her two sisters-in-law started to nag each other, and she took the opportunity to leave the front hall.
Before leaving, she said she was going to take a walk in the mountains, and then quickly disappeared in the yard.
By the time Liu's two sisters-in-law reacted, the person had already disappeared.
Qu Jingyao walked out of the house and headed straight towards the back mountain.
She released both Big Tiger and Little Tiger.
"Go find your parents."
The two little creatures howled and ran happily into the woods.
She also slowly walked towards the depths of the dense forest. This time she came here to find a flying bird, which would make it easier to contact the capital.
At this time, there was a rustling sound from the depths of the dense forest, and soon several white shadows rushed out from the forest.
"Master, you are here."
Dabai growled and quickly ran to Qu Jingyao, followed by Bai Xue, her mother and son.
"Now that you're here, if you're bored later, you can go down the mountain to the house. There's a door open in the backyard for you."
Qu Jingyao reached out and stroked their heads and said with a smile.
The house is surrounded by a wall, so they won't be discovered even if they go down the mountain.
If she is not around in the future, she can still protect her mother and the others.
"Master, did you come to the mountain specifically to find us this time?"
"I want to find two birds to deliver the letter."
