ugly concubine world

Chapter 191
When her voice just fell, he froze, staring at her for a long time with his dark eyes.

Xia Qingxiao panicked for a while, and turned her head to avoid his sight, but she didn't know what to say.

Time seemed to be frozen, motionless.

My mind also seemed to be frozen.

Suddenly, he came over and stood in front of her, the distance between them was only half a step away.

He pulled her into his arms and hugged her so tightly that she couldn't move.

Xia Qingxiao was shocked, this is...

He just held her in his arms and stroked her hair gently.

After an unknown amount of time, it seemed that he heard a sigh, very softly, Xia Qingxiao thought he heard it wrong.

After that very light sigh, he let go of her, and said softly, "Go on to sleep."

Xia Qingxiao nodded blankly, "Okay."

Looking at his thin back, and thinking of the situation he was going to face today, she suddenly felt that he was actually a pitiful person, who was placed in a high position, leaving would be death, but sticking to it would be dangerous.Perhaps, he also hopes to be an ordinary person, a simple life in which he needs to cultivate at dawn and fall asleep at night.

However, that is just wishful thinking.He would never be a farmer, and she would never be a well-rounded daughter of a large family.

……

The next day.

Xia Qingxiao was knocking sunflower seeds and reading a book in the yard, while Mrs. Zhao was busy in the kitchen, saying that she wanted to cook a table of dishes for her and reward her for solving the case.Siwen cleaned the yard.Listening to the movement from the kitchen around her and Siwen sweeping the yard, she felt surprisingly calm and could concentrate on reading more.

"Miss, all the girls in the capital dare to go out now. I really didn't see a woman on the street two days ago! This is all thanks to the lady! It's just a pity that no one knows that the case was solved by the lady. Until now I I don't understand, why didn't the lady tell the public that you solved the case!" Siwen said with some regrets, how many people love fame and wealth, but the lady doesn't pay much attention to it.

"There must be a demon in everything that happens. Do you really think how many people will believe it when I tell the world that I solved the case? More people will take this opportunity to question, and they will insist that the murderer is not the murderer, and I just want to be famous. Some unnecessary troubles Why bother. Didn't Lord Jiao reward my father with money? That's enough." Xia Qingxiao looked away from the book and looked at Siwen, explaining earnestly.

In a world where men are superior to women, this is an unavoidable encounter.

Of course there is one more important point.

That is, she was able to solve the case this time purely due to luck, and it is justified to accept it when she sees it!After stealing Master Jiao's limelight, how will father work under Master Jiao's hands in the future?Can she still eat melon seeds and read books as freely as she does now?
The answer is no!impossible!
"So it's like this, it's because Miss is thoughtful." Siwen suddenly realized.

Xia Qingxiao suddenly thought of something, glanced at the room, "Is Xiaobao still sleeping?"

"Yeah, I basically didn't sleep after having a nightmare last night, and I didn't fall asleep until dawn. It's too pitiful. I don't know when I will get better." Siwen sighed.

"Time is the best medicine for wounds, it will get better after a while." Xia Qingxiao said thoughtfully.For Xiaobao, losing his mother is equivalent to losing the whole world, and this kind of blow is not something other people can understand.Mother has already decided to take Xiaobao in. It just so happens that neither mother nor father has any sons, so they treat Xiaobao as their own.

bang bang bang...

Three knocks on the door.
