Sturdy Countryside: Lord, Please Blow The Lamp

   "Okay, okay." Xia Beibei responded with a smile.

   "Xiaoju, don't you want to eat some candy? Or there are a lot of dried fruit pastries over there, you..."

"No, no, I'm not a child anymore, what do I still eat, Sister Jiuniang, look, this lantern I made looks good, how about we go and light the lantern?" Xia Xiaoju hurriedly interrupted Xia Bebe's words.

   She raised her hand and handed a lantern that was not as big as a palm to Xia Beibei.

  Xia Beibei: "..."

   She looked at Xia Xiaoju speechlessly, her face full of confusion.

   "Little Ju, are you sure this... lantern, can you light candles in it?"

   This is a joke with her, this 'lantern' is not as big as a palm, even if it is a round body, it is as big as an apple, what's the use of putting a candle in it?

   She felt that it was still feasible to put a night pearl instead of candles.

   It's just that she didn't have such a valuable Ye Mingzhu here for Xiaoju, because Ye Mingzhu is very valuable, and her money will not buy such useless things.

   "Yes, why not, I've tried it all." Xia Xiaoju nodded.

   She just tried it and can light candles.

   "Have you tried it? How did you try it?" It didn't burn out?

   What Xia Beibei wanted to ask most was the last sentence.

   Such a small thing, if a candle is lit inside, the flame will definitely burn the paper outside, okay?

   "I tried it. I lit the candle outside, but it's brighter." Xia Xiaoju said.

  Xia Beibei: "..."

   If you light a candle outside, can it still be considered a lantern?

   "Xiaoju, let's do this, I'll go look in the space later to see if there are scales that were replaced by rice. Those are also things that can shine, you can put them in."

   she suggested.

   It's just that the rice is not by her side now, and she doesn't know where the rice usually puts the scales.

   "Okay." Xia Xiaoju nodded naturally.

   "Sister Jiuniang, I..."

   "Miss Jiu, Zifengtang has a letter." Xia Xiaoju was about to speak when she heard Wu Shiqiu's voice coming from outside.

  Xia Beibei looked up and saw Wu Shiqiu holding a white dove in his hand and hurriedly walked in front of her.

   "Let me see." She immediately removed the small note from the pigeon's feet and spread it out.

   followed, her beautiful eyes dimmed.

   "Miss Jiu, what's wrong with you, but there is something important?" Wu Shiqiu asked.

   On the 30th of the New Year's Eve, Hua Qiangu still sent a letter. There must be something important, right?

   "Shiqiu, Wu Shiqiu and the others, can you come here?" Xia Beibei raised her head, looked at Wu Shiqiu, and asked.

  Because Dongfang Yu is going to come here later, Wu Shisan and the others have already come here ahead of time and plan to spend a good year here.

   But, just now, she didn't see Wu Shiqi.

   "Chief Seventeen? He should be helping in the kitchen right now." Wu Shiqiu replied.

   Nineteen girls mentioned the seventeen leaders. Could this letter be related to the seventeen leaders?

   She already knew that Wu Shiqi wanted to kill Shizi several times. Could it be that he still wants to...

   "Go and call Seventeen to my study." Xia Beibei ordered.

   "Yes, Miss Jiu." Wu Shiqiu responded, turned around and went to find Wu Shiqi.

   "Sister Jiuniang, then I'll go to my mother and them first." Xia Xiaoju saw that Xia Beibei had something to deal with, so she took the initiative to leave.

   "Well, let's go." Xia Beibei watched Xia Xiaoju leave before walking to her yard.

  Since Dongfang Yu didn't have the opportunity to ask Wu Shiqi about it, she would ask her. She also wanted to know why Wu Shiqi betrayed Dongfang Yu, his master.

  …

   "Miss Jiu, are you looking for your subordinates?" Wu Shiqi hurried to Xia Beibei's study, and saw that tea and snacks were already prepared in the study.

   He looked at Xia Beibei in astonishment.

   "Seventeen, sit down." Xia Beibei glanced at the stool opposite him and gestured to Wu Shiqi.

   "Miss Jiu, you... your subordinates should stand still, and you can tell me if you have anything to do." Wu Shiqi had a bad premonition in his heart, so he just said bravely.

   He didn't want to sit down at all.

  If the person opposite is Dongfang Yu, he can fight him, even if he really betrayed Dongfang Yu, at most he will be kicked out and never appear again.

   However, Xia Beibei is sitting in front of him now, and he is not sure whether he will tell the truth to her.

   "Sit down first, some things can't be explained in a sentence or two." Xia Beibei raised her hand, poured a cup of tea for Wu Shiqi first, and put it on the opposite side.

When Wu Shiqi saw this, he had to sit down, but he was very nervous. Now he can be sure that Xia Beibei knows his business, or that he knows that he has played against Dongfang Yu, and not only Dongfang Yu is alone.

   "Miss Jiu, if you have anything to ask, just ask."

   He picked up the teacup, tried his best to keep his voice steady, and said.

   "No hurry, look at this first." Xia Beibei placed the biography she had just received in front of Wu Shiqi.

   "This is..." Wu Shiqi put down the teacup and picked up the piece of paper instead.

   In just one glance, his face turned pale.

   That idiot of Zifengtang who thought he was invincible in the world was caught so easily?

  However, it was just a flash of spirit, and he immediately returned to his normal expression.

   Even if he was caught, in this case, he would no longer have to cooperate with those people, and it would be a lot easier, but I was afraid that he would not be able to stay by Xia Beibei's side.

   "Babe, are you trying to ask me why I betrayed the prince?" He asked proactively.

   Now, he doesn't need to call Xia Beibei any more nine girls, just follow his heart and call her Beibei.

   I don't know how long it will last for this babe.

   Xia Beibei didn't say anything, just nodded.

   Since she knew Dongfang Yu, she has seen the interaction between Dongfang Yu and Wu Shisan and Wu Shiqi. She really couldn't believe that Wu Shiqi would betray Dongfang Yu because he liked herself.

   "If I say, the reason why I want to kill Dongfang Yu is for you, do you believe it?" Wu Shiqi chuckled and asked her.

   "I don't believe it, Seventeen. From what I know about you, you're not that unreasonable." Xia Beibei whispered.

   If a woman can make Wu Shiqi betray Dongfang Yu, then their master-servant relationship is really fragile and vulnerable.

   "Babe, thank you for your compliment, but I'm not as good as you think." Wu Shiqi picked up the teacup and took a sip of the mellow tea.
