Xiaoqiu brought the medicine and walked into the study, "Miss, the medicine is ready. Eat it while it's hot."
Tantai He said coldly: "If you take this medicine every day, your cough will not get better. It doesn't matter if you don't take it, just put it down."
Xiaoqiu didn't know what to say. Suddenly she saw the porridge on the table that had almost reached the bottom. She was surprised and said: "Miss, you have an appetite. I will ask the cook to make something delicious for you now."
Tantai Heqing said: "No, I'm almost full."
Xiaoqiu stared at the empty bowl on the table, curious in her heart, who brought the food to the lady. She smiled and said: "Miss, what do you want to eat? Just tell Xiaoqiu, but I told Butler Kong , is there something Xiaoqiu didn’t do well that made the lady dislike her?”
There were some things that Xiaoqiu couldn't say directly, but she just made innuendoes.
Tantai Heqing was unwilling to say it, and said calmly: "No. Okay, please step back."
Zhu Ming and Hu Diquan were standing at the door of the courtyard when they saw Xie Fu coming back.
Hu Diquan jumped up excitedly, "Master Xie came back, he came back safe and sound."
Look at Hu Diquan's happy expression, as if Xie Fu had escaped from death.
Zhu Ming looked frustrated.
Xie Fu came closer and said curiously: "Of course I walked back, couldn't I crawl back?"
Hu Diquan smiled and said: "I bet Mr. Zhu a hundred coins, whether you will walk back or carry it back."
Xie Fu laughed loudly: "You are so happy, it seems that you have won."
Hu Diquan smiled and said: "I don't know why, but I always feel that Mr. Xie, you are extraordinary. You are more courageous than me, Old Hu."
Xie Fu smiled and said: "I also narrowly escaped death and almost fell there." He and his party were also prepared to be beaten today, just like ordinary people who want to challenge the authority of the aristocracy must pay the price in blood.
Hu Diquan heard this and said with concern: "Master Xie, you don't want to go tomorrow either. It's okay the first time, and it's okay the second time. That's good luck. Don't risk your life. As long as the young lady is unhappy, you will..."
Hu Diquan didn't say anything ominous and made a dead expression.
Rich families have the power of life and death over their slaves and servants, and those who sign a death contract are the private property of the master's family.
National law and family rules, national law comes first, and family rules follow. They also have a deterrent effect. If a servant commits a serious crime, such as raping or committing adultery with his mistress, the master can directly execute him and then send someone to the government to report it.
Of course, even if you sign a living contract, if the owner wants to kill you, he can also create a clever name to make him rich and powerful.
Therefore, servants from wealthy families generally treat their masters with respect and do not dare to go beyond the rules.
Xie Fu laughed loudly: "Thank you for your concern, I am sensible."
…
Tantai Heqing goes to various major cloth shops and shops early in the morning every day to inspect the shops. In the afternoon, he will return to the study room of the mansion after about 10 hours to deal with various tedious matters. Many times he is busy until late at night.
Ever since she took over this debt-laden home at the age of fifteen, she had a desperate drive to save the family. Gradually, this desperate effort has become a habit.
Nowadays, the business is booming, and sometimes I feel tired and want to take a break, but I can’t help myself. A lot of people rely on her for food, and customers from all over the world write letters to urge the goods almost every day.
Tantai Heqing is so tired, how can she have time to play with men like this? Her behavior of raising a pretty boy to damage her reputation is nothing more than trying to make those men stop trying to bother her, and break away from the role of a woman in the mall, or in other words Being able to stand on the same level as men.
In addition, there were some big families, such as the famous Gu, Lu, Zhu and Zhangwang clan in Wuzhong, whom she could not afford to offend. For example, Zhang Lingyun, the son of the Zhang family, had always been interested in pursuing her.
Tantai Heqing cannot afford to offend Zhang Lingyun, nor can he afford to offend the Zhang family.
Now that she is a notorious woman, a prominent family like the Zhang family will naturally not accept a woman like her into the family, and this will stop Zhang Lingyun's thoughts.
This is a way to get rid of the problem once and for all.
If her parents hadn't had an accident back then, she would have gotten married now and become someone else's wife.
He should also have his own children.
She spends her days at home looking after her husband and raising her children, playing the piano and writing, doing embroidery and other things.
No matter what, there is no need to show off like she is now. What others see is her beauty, but what they don't know is her life, and her life is not important to anyone.
Tantai Heqing returned to the study, sat down in front of the big case, picked up the pen and got busy...
In the silence, gentle footsteps came from the corridor outside the study.
The footsteps stopped as they approached the study.
Tantai Heqing is almost certainly not Xiaoqiu.
Who could it be?
A pretty face immediately came to mind.
Tantai Heqing put down his pen and looked coldly towards the door.
After the footsteps paused for a while, they sounded again, and a figure appeared at the door of the study.
As expected, it was him!
Does he still dare to come and turn a deaf ear to his own words?
Tantai Heqing even admired his perseverance, she admired him, but she didn't intend to give him mercy this time.
His perseverance challenged her authority as the master of Tantai Mansion.
Xie Fu suddenly met Tantai He's icy eyes, and his heart skipped a beat, it was so cold! Showing the pressure, are you planning to show off your power?
Xie Fu smiled. He had always been easy-going. This smile was natural and not fake.
Although Xie Fu never gave in when it came to big matters, he rarely cared about trivial matters.
So...even though Tantai Heqing's eyes were very unfriendly at the moment, Xie Fu didn't mind.
He is also used to this kind of unfriendly gaze. Compared with others, he can adapt to it better and is not too shy.
"How dare you come!"
Her breath is cold and windy, which is definitely a good remedy for dryness in this hot season.
Xie Fu freed up a hand, wiped the sweat from the corners of his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "This is probably what people often say when a scar heals and forgets the pain, or it is a bad trait that is hard to change."
Tantai Heqing sneered, and she was right, "Do you still remember what I said yesterday?"
Xie Fu said and walked in and put the health porridge on the big table.
Tantai Heqing glanced at the health-preserving porridge. The porridge was the same as yesterday. She happened to be a little hungry after running around all day. When she saw the porridge, she immediately had an appetite and said: "You just woke up, I have given you two chances." ”
The implicit meaning of Tantaihe's love words is that I will not give you a third chance.
Xie Fu said nonchalantly: "I know that as the head of the Tantai Mansion family, Miss must be true to her word, otherwise how can she convince the public."
Tantai Heqing sneered, "Since you know better, you still dare to come."
Xie Fu smiled and said: "How can a man be afraid? Any gains must be paid for."
Tantai Heqing looked surprised.
Xie Fu continued: "Maybe the lady has softened her heart, then I will be lucky."
Tantai Heqing immediately smiled contemptuously, feeling that he thought too highly of herself.
This smile fell in Xie Fu's eyes, and he immediately knew that she wanted to kill him like a chicken and show it to the monkey.
