Chapter 167 Friendship
The little maid took the silver notes to get the bath water, bucket after bucket, and was about to invite the man out after finishing the bath. As a result, the man went out halfway through the bath bucket.
Ji Qingning looked at him, "Where are you going?"
The man turned around and looked at him. Do you still need to ask, "Don't you want me to stay and see you take a shower?"
Ji Qingning, “….”
real.
A mouthful of old blood almost spurted out.
Had she known that he would go out, would she have to do such a long ideological struggle?
It was all about Wen Xuan, she subconsciously thought that everyone was the same as him.
The man stepped out, and for no reason his nose itched and sneezes.
He walked out and waited for the others to go out before Ji Qingning realized, but it was too late. Not only did the man go out, but he was also seen by Manager Liu.
Manager Liu was stunned. If he hadn't seen the man walk out of Ji Qingning's room with his own eyes, he would have called for catching the thief.
Manager Liu looked confused and his eyes moved from the man to Ji Qingning. Ji Qingning hurriedly introduced, "This is my friend."
"You were not at the gate when he came. I wanted to say something to you, Uncle Liu, but I forgot about it as soon as I was busy."
Manager Liu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "So he is Mr. Ji's friend. He is about to have dinner. Should I stay for dinner? I'll cook a few more dishes."
Ji Qingning wanted to say that he wouldn't eat here, and the man said first, "I'll eat here."
Not at all polite.
Manager Liu said, "Then I'll go and do my business."
He was just the manager of the courtyard. The boss was very kind to Mr. Ji's family. He specially sent 5,000 taels of silver and asked him to treat them as the owner of the courtyard. How dare he not listen to the boss's words? Not to mention that he only entertained one guest, it would be fine if he could only have ten.
Although I don’t know who this man is, the clothes on his body are rare and good silk, and his status must be good.
After Manager Liu left, Ji Qingning glared at the man. She and the little maid were using the small courtyard. They thought it was troublesome. He wanted to stay overnight enough, so he still had to have a free meal?!
The little maid prepared the bath water, and Ji Qingning went to take a shower. She was worried and said to the little maid while wearing a wide dress, "You go and see him. He dares to cause trouble for me and slap him faint with a palm."
The little maid looked at Ji Qingning and said, "I can't beat him."
"Are you sure?" Ji Qingning said.
The little maid looked at Ji Qingning, "I definitely can't beat the person my father is optimistic about."
Yes, Uncle Tie has always been serious and people who can catch his eye must have outstanding features.
But although this person is called Li Xuanjian, is he really the owner of Tianwen Villa Li Xuanjian as Uncle Tie said?
After soaking in the bathtub, Ji Qingning wanted to hum comfortably. She could take a bath beautifully before going to bed every day, so don’t feel too comfortable.
It was just that living with Wen Xuan, taking a bath became a luxury.
After soaking for more than a moment, Ji Qingning got up. She was still worried about the man. After putting on her clothes, she went to find someone and searched all the inside and out of the yard, but she didn't see anyone.
The little maid looked around and said, "Can you leave?"
It's better to leave.
But why didn't you refuse to leave before? Was it just teasing her?
This is possible.
Ji Qingning stepped back to the house, and when he went up the steps, he heard something in the house. When he entered the house, he smelled the aroma of food first.
There were six dishes and one soup on the table, and the man poured himself wine.
The little maid sniffed her nose and said, "It's the food in Hongxinglou."
Ji Qingning looked at the man and said, "You asked Uncle Liu to cook but don't eat it. I'm too disrespectful to people."
The man said, "I have told him that I don't need to cook anymore. You can keep me for one night and I should treat you to a meal."
Ji Qingning was worried and asked the little maid to go to the kitchen to check it out, but she sat down to have a meal.
People are not polite to her anymore, why are she polite to them?
Besides, the little maid went to the front yard and met Manager Liu before she arrived at the kitchen. Manager Liu smiled and said, "Then Mr. Li is too polite. I saw that there were fewer dishes in the kitchen. I was afraid that Master Ji would not be able to entertain his friends, so I planned to go to Hongxing Building to buy some vegetables. Master Li refused to let me cook when he saw me going out. He also said that he rarely met Master Ji and would talk to Master Ji tonight and gave me a reward of 100 taels. It would be fine if he didn't."
Talk at night with candles?
The first time the little maid knew that she could be said to be so fresh and refined when she stayed overnight.
Just one move can cost ten thousand taels or one hundred taels. How rich is this?
In the room, Ji Qingning and the man had a meal face to face. You only have food in your eyes, and I only have food in my eyes. I completely did it as if the other party did not exist.
After dinner, Ji Qingning walked around the yard. When he returned to the house, the man sat on the couch and read a book. When he saw her coming in, he asked, "Who is this yard?"
Ji Qingning looked at him, "I don't know."
The man frowned, "You don't know?"
Ji Qingning shrugged, "My father's friend, I don't know it's not normal?"
The man looked at the military book in his hand and said, "This military book is an isolated book. Ordinary people will not collect such military books. The owner of this courtyard is probably a general."
Ji Huaishan used to be just a small county magistrate in Taiping County, but he was a close friend of a general in the court. Why didn’t he help him rise to the top?
And his father repeatedly recommended to the emperor, asking Ji Huaishan to go to the southwest to investigate the case, and even asked his elder brother to come and make peace and ask Ji Qingning to live in Duke Yu's mansion.
Thinking of this, the man's brows were tied to a dead knot under his mask.
He asked Ji Qingning to move to Duke Yu's mansion, but he disagreed. In the end, he stayed in the house in vain and refused to leave. No one knew about it, otherwise he would really not have to ask for this face.
There is also Ji Qingning, who is not only talented but also courageous and knowledgeable, but also knowledgeable. He, the young master of Tianwen, is widely rumored to be compared with others, and there is nothing outstanding about him.
There were so many strange things that the man became more and more curious about Ji Huaishan and the owner of the courtyard.
Not only the man was curious, but Ji Qingning was also curious, but she didn't know that these military books were lonely books. She had been used to having to sleep for a short time, but she didn't sleep today. She was sleepy now and fell asleep while yawning.
The little maid consciously started the floor. Anyway, she still had to sleep on the floor in the end. It would be better to sleep at the beginning, so she could have a stable sleep.
The two of them slept more and more.
The man finished reading the military books in his hand and went to bed on the couch.
A good night's sleep.
The next day, Ji Qingning woke up and there was no sign of a man in the room.
The little maid looked at the empty couch and said strangely, "Why must he spend the night in the yard?"
"Who knows, I'm sick, right?" Ji Qingning said casually, then lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
next door.
The man climbed over the wall and went back, Chen Yao came up and said, "How did you sleep well last night?"
The man didn't say anything, so Chen Yao decided to sleep well.
The man said, "Help me think about how to get along with others."
Chen Yao, “….”
Isn't this too difficult for him?
Before the emperor gave him to the third young master, he was a secret guard.
