As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand and touched the young woman's delicate hand...
But he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his right arm. He looked down and saw that the young woman had unhooked his arm!
Liu Donghai was in so much pain that he broke out in a cold sweat. It was true that he liked girls with a hot temper!
But the woman in front of me is definitely not just a little spicy!
He thought of the crowds of people surrounding him, and he couldn't help but feel angry. He gritted his teeth and shouted:
"Come here! Tie this guy up and throw him into the woodshed in the backyard!"
Upon hearing this, the burly men immediately stepped forward, only to hear the young woman sneer and say with her thin lips:
"roll!"
Then he ordered Bai Xi: "Carry Yan Fei out, let's go."
Liu Donghai was the head of Dexing Commercial Bank, and he was always being flattered wherever he went. How could he have ever suffered such humiliation?
With a wave of his hand, the thugs blocked Si Jinxing and Bai Xi, who was holding Yan Fei, outside the tea room door.
"Master Hai, the injury has been healed. Even if our Dexing Trading Company is hospitable, we have to let the girl go back to recuperate first..." Pei Qingzhu hadn't finished speaking.
But Liu Donghai flicked his sleeves and said angrily:
"What a good shopkeeper Pei, you really know how to behave!
"My Dexing Commercial Bank is too small to accommodate a big Buddha like you, so I'll ask Manager Pei to find another job!"
Pei Qingzhu was stunned when he heard this. This job paid ten taels of silver a month and was the most important source of income for their family.
My brother is an honest farmer who only does odd jobs for others, and my sister-in-law only does some sewing and washing work.
I have two nephews to raise at home...
Pei Qingzhou was a little panicked, but he did not show it on his face. He argued with dignity and said:
"Master Hai, what you're doing is wrong. I signed a contract when I came to Dexing Trading Company. I can't be dismissed before the contract expires. This is the company's rule."
"Rules? You're talking to me about rules? Well, today I'll tell you that in Dexing Trading Company, I am the rules!" Liu Donghai held his dislocated arm with his left hand and glared at Pei Qingzhu angrily!
If it weren't for Pei Qingzhu, he wouldn't have suffered such a great humiliation today!
Pei Qingzhu was about to say something else when she heard the second daughter of the Si family, who was surrounded by several burly men, slowly speak:
"Brother Pei, if you need a new job, I can provide one. The monthly salary will be more than your current one."
Listening to the woman's clear yet crisp voice, Pei Qingzhu felt a sense of longing in his heart for some reason.
At this moment, the seven or eight strong men fell to the ground in unison. Pei Qingzhu turned his head and looked, and saw the second young lady's sleeves flying, obviously she was the one who had done it!
He looked at the second lady in astonishment, and saw her glance at Liu Donghai, then walked straight towards him and asked:
"Brother Pei, can you trust me?
I own not only one Jirentang, but also many other shops. I'm in need of a manager!"
Chief manager?
Pei Qingzhu was slightly stunned, and then thought of the second young lady's demeanor in Jirentang a few days ago.
Confidence, integrity and a bit of arrogance!
He curved his lips into a smile, the scholarly humility reappearing on his face. He bowed, clasped his fists, and said in a loud voice:
"I'll just do whatever the boss wants!"
Si Jinxing stretched out his hand, took out a ten-liang silver ingot, handed it to Pei Qingzhu, and said:
"Rest for a few days. Come to Jirentang to find me in five days."
Pei Qingzhu was not polite. He took the silver ingot and followed Si Jinxing and Bai Xi out of Dexing Trading Company.
Liu Donghai saw seven or eight thugs being knocked unconscious by the young woman in the blink of an eye. How could he dare to act rashly? He watched them leave the store and was so angry that he smashed the teapot on the table!
Si Jinxing originally wanted Bai Xi to hold Yan Fei and go to the streets of Longxing to find her colorful carriage before coming to pick her up, but Bai Xi refused to leave her side no matter what.
I think he was also frightened because she was attacked just now.
But at this moment, a gorgeous carriage slowly stopped in front of Si Jinxing and others.
The curtains were lifted, revealing Qi Nanyue's smiling face.
Bai Xi had stayed in the Si family for a long time and always felt that there was something wrong with Prince Rui. Every time he saw his princess, he would stare at her.
Oh shit!
That's your future aunt!
Bai Xi cursed inwardly and couldn't help rolling his eyes.
"Second sister, what a coincidence." Qi Nanyue greeted with a smile.
Si Jinxing, contrary to her usual behavior, pursed her lips and smiled, saying, "Hello, brother-in-law. I wonder if you would be willing to help me with something?"
Qi Nanyan had recently noticed that this little girl was always cold and intimidating, as if she didn't want to be approached by strangers. But today, when he saw her with a smile in her eyes, she asked him if he was willing to help.
He nodded quickly, the smile on his face getting even wider, and said, "Second sister, please speak."
"Take Yanfei to the carriage first and come to pick me up later." Si Jinxing looked at Bai Xi and gave him a wink.
Bai Xi immediately understood what he meant and ran towards the carriage with Yan Fei in his arms.
Si Jinxing just stood there, head down, and said nothing.
Qi Nanyan thought that the second sister was shy, so he curled his lips and smiled, saying, "Second sister, why don't you come to the carriage and talk?"
"No, it's cool down there." Si Jinxing still kept her head down, not even looking at Qi Nanyan.
Qi Nanyue was sitting in the carriage. The seat was a bit high, so he had a condescending feeling. He looked at the young woman outside the carriage.
She had a petite figure, with her three thousand black hair tied into a bun at the back of her head with a simple silver hairpin.
Her long hair was casually spread out, making her skin look even fairer, and with her delicate and beautiful facial features, she no longer looked like the woman with a face full of dark spots from two years ago!
He just looked at her, through her thick and curled eyelashes, and saw her eyes as calm as water.
In a moment, Si Jinxing's carriage came galloping over.
Qi Nanyue watched as the young woman hurriedly got into the carriage and drove away without even saying goodbye to him.
Only then did he understand that the young woman was just too shy to express herself.
In the carriage, Si Jinxing couldn't help but get angry at Bai Xi and said:
"Why are you so slow? He's disgusting to me! Damn it, I'll definitely complain about you when your master comes back!"
Speaking of his master Qi Moli, he is currently in the western suburbs camp.
The Western Suburbs Camp was originally the Western Suburbs Military Horse Farm. Exiting the West Ming Gate of Jianzhou City and going downstream along the Fuchun River is the Western Suburbs Camp that protects the capital. It is not far from Si Jinxing's villa in the suburbs of Beijing.
Qi Moli was standing on the high platform in the center of the training ground, looking down, his starry eyes filled with fierceness, and he shouted:
"Is this the result of your training for more than a month?"
Today is the last day of the three-day offensive and defensive exercise, but the right-wing army, as the most important long-distance offensive and defensive army, has suffered repeated defeats when facing enemy attacks!
It can't even suppress the opponent's attack, nor can it provide maximum cover for its own side!
The deputy general of the right wing army, Su An, stepped forward and said loudly:
"General! Archers have been training day and night, but a single arrow, no matter how fast it is, can't compare to the power of Han Lan's grandsons shooting two arrows at once!"
