Chapter 336 Madam Xiao, See You Again
Xiao Ying remained unmoved, but his aura had become a little colder.
"Did you do that on purpose that night?"
"How can you say I did it on purpose?" Yu Qianli laughed, "Didn't Madam Xiao deliberately lure me out?"
"I didn't." Xiao Ying said nonsense seriously: "Even without you, I could have dealt with Xia Ang that night."
Yu Qianli: "...I am the one who is meddling in other people's affairs."
Xiao Ying was angry and laughed: "Still pretending? Aren't you just trying to take advantage of my trick and make me owe you a favor?"
"You've figured it out."
Yu Qianli immediately put away his aggrieved look and laughed again.
"Tell me, what do you want to do?"
Xiao Ying also put away the Thunder and Fire Talisman Formation and stopped shouting for fighting.
She was just testing him on purpose, after all, she didn't know what this person's purpose was.
Now it seems that he is not her enemy.
Yu Qianli was silent for a moment before saying, "I'm here to say goodbye to you."
"I'm sorry, I can't help you manage the printing workshop anymore."
Xiao Ying's eyes were strange for a moment, as if he saw something incomprehensible.
Why does it sound like I've developed feelings for her while being the workshop manager?
"Just because of this?"
Yu Qianli smiled and said, "After all, Li Qian is trusted by you. You gave me the management of such an important place as the printing workshop."
"If I'm leaving, I should naturally say goodbye to you. I can't leave without saying goodbye."
Xiao Ying nodded, quite politely.
She knew that this person would leave sooner or later, so she sent Fuqing and Wensong to help. She didn't expect that they would come in handy so soon.
"Is it because you've discovered the secrets of printing that you don't want to do this anymore?"
Yu Qianli shook his head helplessly: "I will not spread the secret of printing. I left this time because Jingguo invaded Qingzhou a few days ago and massacred the people of two villages."
"The war has broken out in the north. I don't know how many more people will be displaced. How can I just sit back and do nothing?"
By the end of her speech, her beautiful face was frosted and her eyes were cold.
Xiao Ying also frowned and became much more serious.
"Jingguo invaded? Is the situation serious?"
Yu Qianli said, "I just received the news today, but don't worry too much. Beizhou has always had the Marquis of Zhenyuan in charge."
As if realizing something, he glanced at Xiao Ying.
Speaking of which, Marquis Zhenyuan is this person's biological father.
Xiao Ying suddenly thought of this and his expression became more serious.
Although he is a cheap father whom I have never met, we share the same blood after all.
If anything happens to my stepfather, my mother will definitely be very sad.
"Don't worry." As if he could see what she was thinking, Yu Qianli added, "The Northern Territory has always had a garrison of 200,000 troops. It wouldn't be easy for Jing Nation to invade. The title of Zhenyuan Marquis is not in vain."
Xiao Ying nodded, feeling a little relieved.
Besides, there's no point in being anxious.
"You're going to the border?"
"Yeah." Yu Qianli nodded slightly: "It is rumored that Nangong Jingyan is in charge of the Jing Kingdom's invasion this time."
"This person is the last disciple of the Jing State Master. He is extremely talented and reached the eighth level of Qi Refining several years ago."
"And there are only a few in my Yue Kingdom who can rival him. I have to go there myself."
Xiao Ying frowned. There was actually such a master here? Didn't that mean his cheap father was in even greater danger?
Only then did she truly look the person in front of her in the face.
When faced with danger, he did not avoid disaster, but instead rushed to the battlefield as soon as possible. He is a courageous and responsible person.
"Be careful on the road. If you need anything, you can send me a message."
A hint of surprise flashed across Yu Qianli's eyes, and then he laughed.
"If we really need to use cultivators like you, it means we have reached a critical moment."
"Don't worry, as long as the Yu family can hold on to this world, they can protect the people of this world."
It was just a casual remark, but Xiao Ying saw his confidence and courage.
Well, she really doesn't need to worry about this matter.
"This is for you."
Yu Qianli seemed to remember something, and suddenly took out a booklet from his arms and sent it to Xiao Ying with his spiritual power.
"These are some of the things I've recorded about the printing workshop, including the personnel arrangements and their respective specialties, as well as the bookshop management contract I just received."
Xiao Ying couldn't help but feel something in his heart, and immediately opened it and started reading it, revealing a bit of surprise.
"You actually recorded this?"
This manager is really competent.
"I remember that I haven't applied for a bookshop operating contract yet."
Seeing the last contract, Xiao Ying looked even more puzzled. Was this the one Yu Qianli applied for her?
Yu Qianli smiled and said, "It's not easy to apply for a bookshop, even if you are a pleasant person."
Xiao Ying was silent. It was true that one needed a background to run a bookstore. It was like a media mouthpiece, especially for someone like her who needed to print books.
"Thanks."
She has to accept this favor.
With the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion and the Ning family behind her, she would definitely be able to apply if she wanted to, but it shouldn't be that easy.
"I should be the one to say thank you."
Yu Qianli said in a low voice, then waved his hand.
"It's getting late. I should go."
"Madam Xiao, see you again if we're lucky."
Before he finished speaking, the white figure had disappeared, leaving behind only a light breeze mixed with a hint of cool fragrance.
Xiao Ying stared at the direction he left, with a thoughtful look on his face.
Ling Yun did not dare to disturb them, but was very happy in his heart. It seemed that the master and the young master had become friends.
It wasn't until a while later that he realized Xiao Ying was still staring at him, and he finally couldn't help but be curious.
"What is the master looking at?"
Could it be that he couldn't bear to part with the young master? He was shocked by his own thought.
Xiao Ying withdrew her gaze and looked at him, but the thought in her mind did not disappear.
"Is your son directionally challenged? Otherwise, how could he have gone east?"
Ling Yun: “…”
Yu Qianli, who just realized that the direction was wrong and turned around in time: "..."
"Young Master, you shouldn't be directionally challenged."
Ling Yun's mouth twitched. In his opinion, he was pretending too much and forgot to choose the direction.
All of a sudden, the already shaky image of the young master in his mind fell even further.
Xiao Ying shook her head and decided not to expose the truth because the other party had helped her get the bookstore management contract.
"Let's go to the printing workshop and take a look."
The person in charge is gone, and someone must take over.
After investigation, she found that Fuqing and Wensong both had good abilities.
So Fuqing was promoted to manager and Wensong to deputy manager.
As for Li Qian's whereabouts, she did not reveal the truth, but made up another excuse to avoid unrest among the people.
After a few days, I found that Yu Qianli had managed the place very well and everything was in order.
So even if the manager is temporarily replaced, there will be no impact.
What a talent!
Too bad it's not hers.
In the next few days, Xiao Ying came to inspect twice to confirm that everything was on track and that there was no impact.
The officials sent by the court to learn about potatoes finally arrived in Yun'an County after a long journey of several days and found Ning Yuanze.
"Jingguo actually invaded? The imperial court is so short of food?"
Ning Yuanze was shocked when he heard this, and his expression instantly turned ugly.
