After admiring the miserable Yue Cuicui for a while, Song Qianning lost interest.
Seeing that Pan's mother was still fighting, Song Qianning was too lazy to watch the fight and stood up to leave.
Pan's mother was in the middle of beating Yue Cuicui, but when she noticed from the corner of her eye that Yue Cuicui was about to leave, she immediately stopped beating her.
Throwing the man to the ground, Pan's mother hurriedly chased after Song Qianning, shouting as she walked, "Miss Song, wait a minute."
Song Qianning stopped and looked at Pan's mother who was blocking her way, frowning: "Is there anything else, Madam Pan?"
"Thank you, Miss Song, for what happened today." Pan's mother said enthusiastically, "Thanks to you, Miss Song, my daughter Ruoruo's chickenpox was cured. From now on, you will be our mother and daughter's benefactor."
After thanking Song Qianning profusely, Pan's mother took out a purse from her sleeve and said, "This is the medical fee I give to Miss Song. Miss Song must accept it."
Song Qianning looked down at the purse that was handed to her, without saying a word, and looked at Pan's mother with a half-smile.
One can tell with the naked eye that the purse is quite heavy and there is definitely a lot of silver in it. For Pan Ruoruo, Pan's mother is really willing to spend a lot of money.
Feeling uncomfortable being looked at by Song Qianning, Pan's mother smiled slightly ingratiatingly: "These are the consultation fees. Miss Song, please don't be polite with me. If Miss Song thinks it is not enough, I can add more."
After staring at Pan's mother for a long time, Song Qianning refused: "No need."
After rejecting her, she said meaningfully, "I just hope Madam Pan can remember her promise, keep Pan Ruoruo under control, and don't let her cause trouble to me again in the future."
Her smile froze, and Pan's mother nodded quickly, assuring her, "Don't worry, Miss Song. I swear to heaven that from now on, I will definitely take good care of Ruoruo and won't let her cause you any trouble again!"
"That's better."
"As for this silver, Miss Song, you..."
"There's no need for money. As long as Madam Pan can manage Pan Ruoruo well and not let her cause trouble to me sooner rather than later, that would be the greatest help and gratitude to me."
Patting Pan's mother on the shoulder, Song Qianning turned around and walked out of the Pan Mansion without caring about her reaction.
After leaving the Pan Mansion, Song Qianning did not stay long and went straight home.
I've been away for so long, and I don't know how my two cubs are doing at home.
When she returned home, Song Qianning was about to call Dawang and Xiaoya's names when she found that the gate was wide open.
Standing outside the door, I could vaguely hear a male voice coming from inside, mixed with the little girl's cheerful voice.
A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, and Song Qianning quickened his pace and walked towards the yard.
As he got closer, the voice became clearer, and at the same time, several figures appeared in Song Qianning's sight, including one that shouldn't have appeared here.
Seeing the person holding Xiaoya in front of her, Song Qianning blurted out: "When did you come back?"
Obviously, the people inside had already noticed Song Qianning's return. They put down the little girl and looked at her with a smile on their faces: "Miss Song, long time no see."
This person was Qin Ye, whom she had not seen for a long time. After blinking her eyes, Song Qianning calmed down.
Recalling her overly excited behavior just now, she coughed lightly and said in a nonchalant tone: "You're back."
"Yeah, I just came back not long ago." Qin Ye looked at Song Qianning, and the smile on his face deepened.
Nodding, Song Qianning pretended to be indifferent and looked away to look at the two cubs.
Da Wang and Xiao Ya also noticed Song Qianning and called out "Mom" in unison.
Especially Xiaoya, she looked at Song Qianning excitedly, opened her arms and ran towards her, shouting: "Mom."
Hugging Song Qianning's thighs, Xiao Ya blinked her big watery eyes and looked at her, her eyes full of joy.
"Mom, the little girl wants a hug."
Hearing this, Song Qianning bent down and reached out to hug the little girl.
Normally, she could hold not only one little girl, but two children at once, but...
Because of Qin Ye's sudden return today, Song Qianning was a little absent-minded. When she hugged Xiao Ya, it was a subconscious action and she forgot to use force.
So, Song Qianning tried to hug the girl, but not only did she fail to lift her up, she also staggered.
Seeing that she was about to fall, Qin Ye, who was standing next to her, was quick-witted. When Song Qianning was about to fall, he put his arm around her waist and brought her into his arms: "Miss Song, are you okay?"
Having avoided the fate of falling, Song Qianning breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed her sprained waist, and waved her hand: "I'm fine."
At the same time, Qiuyue was about to come in when she saw this scene. She put her foot down involuntarily before she could take a step forward.
He stared blankly inside, as if he was standing there stupidly.
Qin Ye is usually aloof and few people can get close to him, and there has never been a woman who catches his eye.
Those women who want to get close to Qin Ye will often be met with his disgusted gaze and ruthless expulsion.
As Qin Ye's subordinate, Qiuyue saw for the first time that the cold-hearted master was so close to a woman, and he became so nervous just because the other party almost fell.
She felt an inexplicable bitterness in her heart, and Qiuyue couldn't help but clench her fists, with a sense of unwillingness emerging.
This woman...why.
Suppressing the bitterness in her heart, Qiuyue walked inside before anyone inside noticed her: "Master."
Qiuyue's voice startled Song Qianning, who was rubbing her waist. She realized that she was still in Qin Ye's arms and subconsciously jumped back from his arms.
Ignoring the inexplicable guilt in her heart, Song Qianning shifted her gaze and looked towards Qiuyue.
Noticing that the person standing outside was a strange woman, she was filled with curiosity: "Master Qin, who is this?"
Retracting his hand that was still hugging someone, Qin Ye explained: "Her name is Qiuyue, she is my subordinate, and she is also the new guard I found for you."
"New guards?" Song Qianning was puzzled. "Isn't there Young Master Changqing?"
Qin Ye nodded: "Changqing is a man, and you are a woman, which makes things difficult for you on a daily basis."
After explaining to Song Qianning, he called Qiuyue who was waiting on the side and said lightly: "This is Miss Song, and she is the person you will protect in the future."
Suppressing the emotions in her heart, Qiuyue looked at Song Qianning with a flash of contempt in her eyes.
An ordinary woman, not even as good as those women in the capital, what makes her worthy of my special attention?
Since Qin Ye was still beside her, Qiu Yue suppressed her disdain, cupped her hands, and gave Song Qianning a very perfunctory salute: "Miss Song."
During this time, Qin Ye's attention was always on Song Qianning, and he did not notice Qiuyue's perfunctory attitude.
After Qiuyue and Song Qianning finished their greetings, he started talking about another matter: "The Chief Minister has told me about the taxation. The court has not increased the tax revenue."
"The court didn't increase tax revenue?"
"Um."
After getting a definite answer again, Song Qianning narrowed her eyes. No wonder the tax increase was so sudden this time without even a notice.
It seems the imperial court didn't increase taxes at all; it was Ning Qiuze who raised them on his own.
