"Thank you, Miss Xia. Thank you, Miss Xia."
Seeing that the yamen official was so excited that he almost knelt down and kowtowed, Xia Tan'er quickly added.
"You haven't said anything yet. Don't thank me too early. I may not agree."
"As long as Miss Xia is willing to give this opportunity, it is enough."
"Okay, stop being pretentious and just tell me."
"yes."
The officer bowed to Xia Tan'er and then talked about what happened in the past.
"Miss Xia had a bad relationship with Mr. Xia before, so she may not know that although Mr. Xia is not a good brother, he is indeed a good official. When my parents were killed by thieves, if Mr. Xia hadn't found someone for me, If the murderer is revealed and the subordinate is allowed to serve in the government office, I am afraid that the subordinate will not be able to survive at all."
"I don't dare to forget the kindness of knowing you, but I really can't repay you. So when I came to deliver the message today, I selfishly wanted to invite Miss Xia to the Prime Minister's Mansion."
After hearing this, Xia Tan'er didn't say a word. She just picked up the tea cup and took a small sip.
When the officer saw this, his eyes couldn't help but become lonely.
"My subordinate has a humble status. This little thing cannot impress Miss Xia. I offended you. Please forgive me."
"When did I say I won't help you? You can't be a yamen servant if you are so unsure. "The yamen servant must have a powerful aura, otherwise how can he intimidate the enemy.
"Miss Xia, does this mean you agree?"
"Although it's a bit pretentious, it's really touching. The kindness of acquaintance and the revenge of parents are properly repaid. I will give you this face. As for the consultation fee, I will charge one tael of silver."
"One tael of silver? Miss Xia, do you really think you won't lose money?"
The difference between one tael of silver and a thousand taels of gold is huge. Can Xia Tan'er really only need one tael of silver for consultation fee?
"I set the price of the consultation fee. I can pay it as much as I want. Why is it too little? If it is too little, I can add more."
"Not a little, not a little, thank you Miss Xia for your kindness."
"Remember to go back and tell Xia Lingfu that you should still take credit when it's time to do so. It will be good for you in the future. However, Xia Lingfu may not agree to Xia Zhao's promise. Just tell him what you have done. As for the result, Ignore it."
"Thank you, Miss Xia, for your advice."
"Back off."
"yes."
After ordering the officer to be sent away, Xia Tan'er returned to the room. She peeked inside but did not find Lan Chengjin's figure.
"Leaving so quickly and not staying for a meal."
Xia Tan'er tensed her shoulders and turned around to close the door.
But just as he held the doorknob, Laifu hurried over from the other end.
"Little miss, I have a guest to see you."
"We have a guest? What guest?"
"He is the young master of the Marquis Yong'an family. He seems to be here to seek medical treatment. He seems to be very anxious, but when the servant asked him, he refused to answer and just said that the young lady should come over."
"Yong'an Marquis? I haven't heard of it, so I'm going to take a look first. Since guests are here, I have to meet them, so that others won't say that my Lu family is arrogant. I can't let anyone catch me on this point."
"Yes, young lady, please follow your subordinates over."
The two people rushed over one after another. Because Xia Tan'er was pregnant, Laifu didn't dare to go too fast. After taking a few steps, he looked back to see Xia Tan'er's condition. After making sure that Xia Tan'er was okay, he speeded up. took some steps.
But when I arrived at the lobby, I saw no adults. I saw a child in his teens sitting on a chair and swinging his legs. He was not as tall as a chair. His little face was childish and green, but his expression was very... He was serious, and there was a lot of sweat on his forehead because of his anxiety.
"Little miss, this is the young master of the Yong'an Hou family."
"Still a child?"
Xia Tan'er didn't mean to look down on children. She had also been a child and knew clearly whether they were telling the truth or lies. However, talking to children was really troublesome and she couldn't understand a sentence or two clearly.
"I'm not a child, I'm already an adult at home."
Hearing the whispers between Xia Tan'er and Laifu, Xiao Yangdi pouted and crossed his arms with his hands on his chest and looked at Xia Tan'er with an unhappy expression. His thick milky voice revealed his undeniable seriousness. There was an old-fashioned look on his cheeks.
"Maybe not psychologically, but you are indeed a child according to your age, and I am right to say so."
"Huh, at my age, you are already a married woman. If you count it this way, you are also a child."
Oh, he is very eloquent and his logical thinking is very smooth.
Xia Tan'er no longer looked at him like a child.
"Then tell me why you came to see me? My housekeeper said that you are in a hurry and are here to seek medical treatment."
Xiao Yangdi glanced at Laifu, moved his buttocks to reach the ground, jumped slightly, and trotted to Xia Tan'er.
Without any explanation, he pulled Xia Tan'er's clothes and prepared to take Xia Tan'er away.
"You come with me. My mother is having difficulty giving birth. Please help me save her."
But a child doesn't have much strength. Xia Tan'er stopped walking, and Xiao Yangdi fell heavily to the ground due to inertia.
"Why should I help you? I don't know your mother. How do you know that I can save your mother?"
She is no longer the Xia Tan'er who had to save others and suffer injustice in order to live a good life. All she has to do in her new life is not to wrong herself.
Therefore, all decision-making rights can only be left to yourself, and others are not qualified to do so.
"You should make it clear first and then I will consider whether to save you. Also, don't act like a child with me. I won't do that."
Since she said she was an adult, she should solve the problem in an adult way. After all, she was the granddaughter of the Lu family, and her status was much nobler than that of the Yong'an Marquis. There was no need to give in to both emotion and reason.
When Xiao Yangdi heard this, the tears rolling in his eyes suddenly fell. He raised his sleeves to wipe away the tears and snot from his face, then raised his clear eyes to look at Xia Tan'er.
"You don't know me, but I know you. The officials at Dali Temple have already spread the word that Master Xia's sister can save the life of a woman with a broken belly."
It turned out that the news came from Dali Temple. It's no wonder that people in this dynasty of Jiuzhou Continent must have thought that there was no way to recover if the intestines were exposed, but she saved the person, everyone can't help but be excited.
"Then why do you think I can save your mother from giving birth?"
"The baby is in the belly, and the intestines are also in the belly. Since you can save the person who opened the belly, you can definitely save my mother."
As he spoke, Xiao Yangdi's voice became lower and lower, becoming extremely nasal.
He remembered that before he went out, his mother was still screaming in pain, and basin after basin of blood came out of the room. What was even more frightening was that he also heard Po Wen saying that her mother was pregnant with a transverse fetus and asking his father if he wanted to Whether to protect the elder or the younger, Xiao Yangdi suddenly panicked. Thinking of the rumors he had heard about Xia Tan'er before, he immediately ran to the Lu Mansion from the Yong'an Marquis Mansion.
