Chapter 145 Confrontation
After waking up, it's another day at work for workers.
Hu Xiner felt even heavier when she went to the study than when she went to the grave.
I wanted to back down several times on the way.
You can make more money, but you can't suffer in vain.
But... that's a full one thousand taels of gold per month!
She endured it for the sake of money.
I originally thought that after being beaten yesterday, Xuanyuan Jing'an would be able to calm down a bit.
But he was a child and recovered well, so the Duke did not use any harsh measures.
As soon as he opened the door, he appeared in front of Hu Xiner again, full of energy and a devilish smile on his face: "You're finally here!"
He threw a few books at her and said viciously, "Read aloud to me!"
Hu Xin'er was hit right in the face: "Do you want me to lose my voice from reading? I'm here to be your servant, not to read to you!"
Are you kidding? Does this naughty kid think she is a BBK reading machine?
As the saying goes, everything will turn into its opposite when it reaches its extreme. Hu Xiner got angry when she saw Xuanyuan Jing'an's arrogant look.
Based on her experience of hanging out on certain forums for many years before she traveled through time, the way to deal with a naughty kid is to be even naughtier than him!
So, while she was retorting, she picked up the book on the ground and put it directly on Xuanyuan Jing'an's forehead: "I'm here to accompany you to study, not to get angry with you!"
Xuanyuan Jing'an didn't move at all. After three seconds, his body began to tremble continuously.
"Ah!" He tore off the book, his eyes wide with anger.
This behavior is exactly the same as General Xuanyuan's.
But what he never expected was that the new servant in front of him did not show any fear, but smiled at him instead.
Hu Xin'er stood there in a horse stance, gathering her energy into her dantian, and hooked her index finger at him confidently: "Come here! If you dare to touch me today, I'll see if General Xuanyuan will punish you with family discipline!"
From the boy's reaction when he was beaten yesterday, it can be seen that he both respects and fears his grandfather.
Hu Xiner's words gave her a firm handle on Xuanyuan Jing'an.
Xuanyuan Jing'an was so angry that his eyes turned red and his chest heaved violently, but unfortunately, no matter how fierce his anger was, he was like a little tiger.
He is still only 1.3 meters tall.
Then he screamed like a little firecracker, unable to bear it any longer.
The tender child's voice coupled with his amazing lung capacity made even the glazed tiles above his head seem to vibrate.
Hu Xin'er sneered, "Isn't that just screaming? Who can't do that?"
He screamed, and she screamed even louder than him!
The two of them covered their ears and competed in shouting. After their voices became hoarse, Xuanyuan Jing'an started jumping up and down in the study with hatred in his eyes.
He roared at Hu Xin'er in a hoarse voice: "I don't want you as a servant, get out of here!"
He ran around the study, and even got a ladder from somewhere and climbed onto the roof.
Just as he was about to throw a tile down proudly, he found that Hu Xiner had taken the ladder away.
Moved away!
Moreover, this shameless, despicable, dirty and cunning villain actually extended his evil hand to his most beloved Luban lock!
There is also a glazed seven-treasure pig!
These are his favorite toys, used to relieve boredom in the study!
Xuanyuan Jing'an roared angrily on the roof: "If I don't avenge this, I, Xuanyuan Jing'an, will not be a human being!!!"
The butler, who was a few paths away, heard the young master's penetrating roar and immediately turned a corner and ran away.
After a whole day of this, Hu Xiner was exhausted.
Xuanyuan Jing'an had no strength left and was as silent as a chicken when he was taken away.
Even General Xuanyuan was a little surprised: "Did you fight in the study today?"
Of course, Hu Xiner couldn't say exactly how she did it.
Fortunately, Xuanyuan Jing'an dismissed all the servants today in order to torture her.
What happened today was too embarrassing, and Xuanyuan Jing'an probably wouldn't tell anyone about it.
She scratched her head and embellished the matter, saying, "Maybe I'm still young and energetic, and I've exhausted Jing'an."
General Xuanyuan gave her a thumbs-up: "Young people love to play, and they are indeed more appealing to children than the old pedants of the past. I was negligent in the past!"
He was very happy because his previous study companions would either be driven away by anger or bullied within a day.
Hu Xin'er seemed quite capable, so he casually gave her a purse and laughed resoundingly, "Okay! I'll trouble you to take care of my little grandson from now on! From now on, you can come and go freely in the inner courtyard of our mansion, so that you can accompany Jing'an more conveniently!"
Watching General Xuanyuan's back as he walked away, Hu Xiner opened her purse. Wow, there were at least 100 taels of silver in it!
She happily pulled the housekeeper over and asked, "Excuse me, where is the Second Miss's study? Can I go in?"
She wants to show off to Mu Qing!
The second young lady's study is in the inner courtyard, and its specifications are the same as Jing'an's. It can be seen that the Duke is not a person who favors boys over girls.
There are several clusters of orchids planted at the door, of various varieties. Now I don’t know which one is emitting the elegant fragrance.
The study door was wide open, and Mu Qing was sitting at the doorway, concentrating on reading.
Such a casual action, when Mu Qing did it, looked like a carefully designed painting.
Perhaps he was moved by something, as he looked up from his book and saw Hu Xin'er appear. He called out in surprise, "Xin... Cousin Wanwan, why are you here?"
From this angle, you can just see the second young lady sitting at the desk. She hurriedly uses something to cover the painting she is drawing.
He asked unhappily, "Why are you here?"
Tsk tsk, woman, when she was following Mu Qing yesterday, she was still so gentle and beautiful.
When I met Mu Qing's "cousin" today, a palette of jealousy and hatred appeared on my face!
However, Xuanyuan Eri is only fifteen or sixteen years old now, which is just a high school student in modern times.
As an adult, Hu Xiner didn't want to argue with her.
So he bowed with a dignified manner and said, "Greetings, Second Miss. The Duke has given me special permission to come down to the inner courtyard."
The Second Miss simply didn't believe it: "Grandpa, why would you let someone like you into the inner courtyard? Come on, take her away!"
Seeing her harsh words, Mu Qing subconsciously protected Hu Xin'er: "Xin... Wanwan would never lie!"
"Are all the people outside dead? Drag this woman out!" The Second Miss became even angrier when she saw him protecting Hu Xin'er. "She trespassed into the inner courtyard. Don't speak for her."
"Whether it's true or not, just ask the Duke. Why is the Second Miss so anxious?" Mu Qing asked with a frown, "Even if my cousin trespassed, she's a girl and poses no threat."
"You..." The second young lady realized her own loss of composure and bit her lip, returning to her gentle and frail appearance. "Sorry, Lu Lang, I'm not used to strangers coming over suddenly."
"You can just call me Mr. Lu. It's time, so I'll go back with my cousin." Mu Qing nodded coldly.
On the way home, Mu Qing sighed, "I don't want to stay here any longer."
