Chapter 168
There was a restaurant just at the intersection, and Qin Xiyue went directly into this restaurant in order to save time.

It was meal time at this time, and the lobby of the restaurant was almost full, leaving only the tables in the corner empty.

Qin Xiyue ordered food to Xiao Er, explaining that she wanted to take it away, and then sat down in the corner and waited.

She had just sat down for a while when she heard conversations coming from the table next to her.

"Have you heard, that ugly bastard stole a total of 5000 taels from the Duke's mansion!"

"Hiss...there are so many?! How dare she! Is your news reliable?"

"Of course, my cousin's neighbor's cousin works in the Duke's mansion. He said it himself. How can it be false?"

"Tsk tsk, that seems to be true, that ugly monster is not afraid that the Duke's mansion will make trouble with the government!"

"Of course she is not afraid. She has the support of the prince behind her! Besides, Mrs. Qin of the Duke's Mansion said that no matter what, she is the Qin family after all, and they will not bring the matter to the government. As long as the ugly monster comes out to recognize her Apologize for the mistake, let’s forget about it!”

"Hey, Mrs. Qin is really kind-hearted. They have severed ties with the Duke's Mansion, and she still protects them like this!"

"Who said it wasn't? Didn't that ugly monster dare to steal money unscrupulously because Mrs. Qin is so talkative..."

When the people at the other tables heard these words, they also joined in, talking about Yue Qiushuang's good, and calling Qin Xiyue a cold-blooded white-eyed wolf.

Qin Xiyue was amused to hear that, but she didn't expect Yue Qiushuang to move so fast, and it didn't take long for the specific amount of "stolen" to be reported.

That person just now was probably deliberately arranged by Yue Qiushuang to spread the news.

Not only did she belittle Qin Xiyue between the lines, but she also praised Yue Qiushuang at the same time!
She shook her head amusedly, no longer cared about those rumors, turned her hand to take out the secret book of Yufengshu from the purple jade bracelet, and read it quietly.

After a while, the food was ready, and she left the restaurant immediately.

There was nothing to say all night, so peaceful that Qin Xiyue thought that she was going back to the peaceful days before.

However, early the next morning, the stench coming from outside the door told her that it might not be easy to find peace.

She went out and opened the courtyard door carefully, and then a bigger smell came over her face, as if she was in a cesspit.

Qin Xiyue frowned, raised her hand to cover her nose with her sleeve, and looked carefully——

I saw that the steps outside the door and the door panels were splashed with manure, and many rotten eggs were thrown on the ground, attracting a lot of flies buzzing around on it!

Qin Xiyue almost vomited, quickly closed the courtyard door, thought for a while, then turned and went outside Qin Jintang's room.

It was still early, and Qin Jintang slept late last night because he was worried about Qiu'er, and he hasn't woken up yet.

She knocked on the door and waited for a response before opening the door and entering.

Qin Jintang looked at Qin Xiyue in a daze, and was immediately awakened by the smell: "Sister, what happened outside?"

Qin Xiyue shrugged and said, "Someone is looking for trouble, let's leave here first."

"Ah, leave?" Qin Jintang rubbed his eyes, climbed out of bed, frowned and said, "It's so smelly, if we don't deal with it, we won't be able to live. We can't live outside all the time, right?"

Qin Xiyue smiled mysteriously: "Don't worry, I will find someone to clean it up for us, but let's get out of here first, get dressed quickly, and I'll call Qiu'er."
