Need for a Guard

"Rub your feet?" Xiao Wandan stood at the door, looking at Shi Yue's figure disappearing into the night, calmly, and seemed to be talking to himself: "What kind of feet are you rubbing?"

From a dark corner, a man in black with gauze wrapped around his wrist walked out, bowed and said, "It's for a woman to rub her feet."

"Woman?" The little dandy asked, "Which woman?"

The man in black said: "Xiong Qishan's Ninth Lady is called Jiaoniang!"

The little dandy tilted his head and smiled: "Big brother just said swearingly that he regards beautiful women like floating clouds? Why did you come out with such a charming girl right now?"

The man in black smiled, bowed and replied: "Master doesn't know, that girl is born beautiful, one in a million, but she has a charming face, Shi Yue, has already regarded her as his forbidden..."

The little dandy smiled: "I really thought that big brother was a stone who didn't know how to style, but it turned out that he was so good at it!"

Looking back and thinking for a while, he said again: "I don't have time to come here anymore, this mansion can be resold, don't leave any traces! Big brother, you should put more thought into it, and if there is any progress, it must be the first Inform me, don't delay the big event."

The man in black agreed, glanced at the gauze on his arm, jumped up and disappeared into the night.

More than ten days later, Shi Yue continued to play the role of personal bodyguard. Under the gentle and slow squeeze of his big hands, Mrs. Ninth's little feet miraculously returned to normal.

Mrs. Ninth is very nourished these days, she has worries and hopes in her heart, and her complexion is much better than before.

In the garden, beside the stream, their laughter was left everywhere!

With Xiong Qishan as a mountain pressing on her head, she dare not have too much hope, as long as she can keep company with Shi Yue like this, she can also comfort the loneliness in her heart, who will let her life suffer?

On this day, Shi Yue was invited by Lei Dahu to drink again.

Madam Ninth was bored with Xi'er admiring the blooming flowers in the garden, especially the lotus in the pond that was not stained by silt, which really made people like it from the heart.

She also sometimes thinks so confidently: Although she was born in Gonglefang and married Xiong Qishan, her body is innocent, as pure and spotless as a lotus in water, and she is still waiting for the love in her heart. People pick it, but...but this bad guy is really bad enough.

Often in the middle of the teasing, I just leave myself there and ignore it!

She was thinking wildly, when she suddenly heard a servant girl timidly say: "Ninth Madam, the master is calling you!" Looking back, she saw that it was the maid in Xiong Qishan's house—Qiu Ju!

Xiong Qishan looking for me?

Madam Nine withdrew her thoughts, made an expression that a madam should have, and responded, "What are you calling me for?"

"Qiu Ju doesn't know!" Qiu Ju saluted, and then said nonchalantly, "Master is waiting for Mrs. Ninth in the study."

Madam Nine thought for a while, and then followed Qiu Ju to Xiong Qishan's study.

Xiong Qishan was sitting on a sandalwood chair, sipping tea, and pondering over this delightful matter!

After more than ten days of groping and communicating, he finally got in touch with Nan Batian, the godson of Master Kang who was in command, that is, the black beard who harassed Jiaoniang at the birthday banquet.

Originally, Nan Batian thought that Xiong Qishan came to Xingshi to inquire about his crimes. He relied on himself as the black-clothed guard Qianhu and Kang Shanzhen's godson, so he disdained Xiong Qishan very much and wanted to beat him out with a stick.

However, when he understood Xiong Qishan's intentions, he couldn't help laughing out loud, and the charming face of Mrs. Ninth appeared in his mind again.

He didn't even think about it, and immediately agreed, perhaps promising to find an opportunity to win over Mr. Kang's inner circle that Xiong Qishan had entered!

All of these made Xiong Qishan extremely happy. Such a clever plan that kills two birds with one stone not only saved his official career, but also broke Shi Yue's intention to have an affair with the Ninth Madam.

And, it's an above board gift!

In ancient times, there was a precedent of giving away a concubine. Jiao Niang bought it from Gong Lefang with her own money, and in theory it was just a moving gift!Now I give this gift to my friends, how justified it is, and no one can say no to it because of emotion and reason.

While feeling complacent, she saw Mrs. Ninth walking into the study with a cold face, sat down on a chair next to her, without a trace of a smile on her face, and said solemnly: "Master called Jiao Niang, what's the matter?"

Xiong Qishan snorted with a half-smile: "Jiaoniang, I bought you from Gong Lefang and gave you a stable home. Can I be considered your great benefactor?"

The Ninth Madam didn't understand why Xiong Qishan asked such a question, she bit her pink lips, and replied softly: "In Gonglefang, although it's humbler, but it's easy and carefree, where people look at people's faces and act like they are now. ? If the master feels that it is a loss, he will send me back at worst, and I would rather return to the days of leaning on the door and laughing."

Xiong Qishan took a soft nail, angry in his heart, and said with a sneer: "Since you don't like me so much, I won't make things difficult for you, but how can I send you back to Gonglefang? That's a humble place, can't you?" tarnish your reputation?"

Madam Nine was startled when she heard this, she stood up abruptly, with a bad premonition welling up in her heart, her face flushed, and she asked softly, "Are you going to give me away? To whom?"

"Jiaoniang is really smart!" Xiong Qishan didn't play riddles with her: "Heiyiwei Qianhu, godson of the Commander-Nan Batian, is the hero who wanted to drink with you at the birthday banquet. I admire you very much, I love you every day, I don’t think about tea! I don’t want to eat! I mentioned it to me many times, and I want to drink a glass of wine with Jiaoniang!"

"It was him?"

Ninth Madam felt that the sky was collapsing in an instant, and she leaned against the wall for a while before recovering: "You want to give me to that black beard, Xiong Qishan, you really are not a thing, you dare to betray anything in order to get promoted! "

Xiong Qishan sneered and said, "I bought you back and raised you. You are one of my pawns. I can give you to whoever I want! No one can control me!"

Madam Nine wanted to cry, but she forcibly held back, sparks burst out in her eyes: "I don't want to, give up!"

"Haha...that's up to you!" Xiong Qishan slapped the table and roared, "I've already discussed this matter with Nan Batian, and the paperwork has been exchanged. If you don't go, I will also send you away." Tie it up and send it over, even if you sue it to the Yamen, you have no chance of winning, you are just a thing I bought that can breathe, and it is only right and proper to give it away."

Mrs. Ninth was stunned for a moment, Xiong Qishan was right, in his eyes, she was indeed just something that could breathe!

Panting heavily, she stared blankly at Xiong Qishan, her mind was a little confused for a while, and she blurted out: "You dare to be rude to me, Little Stone will not let you go!"
