Chapter 46 Come chase me!
Madam Si sighed, "The domestic situation is very chaotic, and these people are still pulling each other's legs."
"There's nothing we can do about it. Everyone is only concerned about the little profits in front of them." Siming said and looked outside.
"Will the Liu family give up their farmland?" Old Madam Si looked at him and asked.
"I'll release him once you've brought him here, and let him settle the score with Pei Jingming. Anyway, I told you the information came from someone he was in contact with."
"If you don't give it to me, I will kill him. After all, the Liu family is not on the same page with us. Keeping him will be a disaster sooner or later." Siming was not soft-hearted at all.
The reason why Liu Jingcheng was still kept was not only to skin the Liu family, but also to let him find trouble with Pei Jingming to prevent this guy from having too much free time.
In addition, he also needed to make a warning to these aristocratic families in Beiyang City.
Madam Si placed an invitation in front of him: "The General Administration of Customs just sent it."
Siming picked it up and flipped through it casually: "Banquet?"
"Yeah. He found an excuse saying it was the concubine's birthday. He wanted to make some extra money before retiring." Old Madam Si saw it clearly.
"It's a good thing he wants to make money, but I'm worried he won't. But the higher-ups haven't revealed any information about the next head of the General Administration of Customs, so I don't feel optimistic."
Siming couldn't help but frown as he looked at the invitation in his hand.
"Are you afraid that the person coming is Pei Jingming?" Madam Si looked at him and asked.
Siming nodded. "Besides him, I'm also afraid of some traitors. I don't care whether I can take office or not, I just don't want them to mess up Beiyang City."
"Don't be anxious, take your time, there is always a way. Do you want to choose the gifts for the banquet, or do you want me to prepare them for you?" said Mrs. Si.
"Mom, please help me choose!" Siming is going out today. He has found the bandits entering the city and is ready to take people to catch them.
Juanjuan sat up from the bed and looked out toward the balcony in a daze.
She suddenly jumped out of bed, barefoot, holding a toy rabbit's ear in her hand, and ran to the balcony.
Seeing Siming about to go out, she opened her little mouth and shouted, "Dad!"
Siming had just walked out of the house when he stopped and turned around as if he felt something, and saw the little girl standing behind the balcony window.
She was wearing pajamas, with messy hair and bare feet, waving at him.
This girl, why is she standing there without wearing shoes? She’s going to catch a cold soon.
He went straight back to the house, went up to the second floor, and pushed open Juanjuan's door.
Juanjuan stood in front of the balcony window, still holding the little rabbit's ears in her hand and dragging them on the ground.
She smiled brightly: "Dad!"
Siming walked over to her in a few steps and picked her up: "Why don't you wear shoes, socks, or clothes? If you catch a cold, you'll have to take bitter medicine."
Juanjuan hugged his neck, resting her furry little head on his broad shoulders, and asked in a soft voice, "Dad, are you going out?"
Siming's heart couldn't help but soften: "Yes! Dad has to go out for a while, you have to listen to grandma at home."
"Okay! Juanjuan, be good." Juanjuan said and kissed him on the cheek.
Siming carried her to the bed and sat down, helping her put on her shoes, socks and clothes.
Juanjuan reached out and took a small iron box of candy from the table beside her. It was the size of a palm and she stuffed it into Siming's chest pocket.
"Sweet your mouth to Daddy."
Siming smiled and gently patted his chest pocket: "Okay, Dad will definitely take it."
Juanjuan took his hand and walked him to the door of the house.
She suddenly whispered something to Siming's pistol and blew on the holster, "Grandpa Gun, I'll warm you up. Come on!"
Siming looked down at the little girl and asked, "Does Juanjuan know what Daddy is going to do?"
Juanjuan looked up at Siming's silly face and said, "I don't know!"
Siming smiled and patted her little head: "Dad is gone, you can play in the house and wait for your brother to get up."
"Okay!" Juanjuan waved her little hand and said goodbye to him.
Bailing walked up to her and said, "Miss, whatever you want to play, Bailing can play with you."
"Let's go play with Songsong." Juanjuan took Bailing's hand and went to find Songsong.
Songsong built a new doghouse, and also built a bigger chicken coop for them.
The former doghouse has become an egg-laying base.
Juanjuan still couldn't bear to kill three roosters, but Wu Ma went out to buy some chickens and stewed one for Songsong.
Songsong looks at the chickens he hatched every day, wondering whether to eat them or not.
After thinking about it, I gave up this idea.
"Songsong, let's go play with the snowman!" Juanjuan ran to it and squatted down.
Songsong looked up at her and didn't move.
Juanjuan stretched out her little hand and dragged it up: "Let's go."
Songsong reluctantly followed her out of the house and ran to see the snowman in the yard.
The red scarf was stiff and there were icicles hanging on Carrot's nose.
"Sister Bailing, look, the snowman has a runny nose. Is he cold?" Juanjuan turned to look at Bailing and asked.
Bai Ling was at a loss for words: "Miss, it rained that day and the water froze in the cold weather."
"I thought the snowman was too cold." Juanjuan was looking at the snowman when he was suddenly knocked down and fell to the ground.
She turned around and saw the culprit, Songsong, grinning and wagging his tail rapidly.
"Woof woof. Come and chase me!"
"Miss, are you hurt?" Bailing quickly helped her up.
"It doesn't hurt. Wear warm clothes." Juanjuan said and ran to chase Songsong.
Bailing was afraid that she would fall again: "Slow down."
Songsong saw her chasing after him, and when he realized that she was about to catch up, he started to dig snow from behind.
Juanjuan got snow all over his head and face.
Juanjuan was so angry that her face puffed up: "I'll spank you if I catch you."
Songsong jumped and ran away, and in the front position, the front half of his body lay in the snow, biting his tail and barking at her.
"Woof woof. Come and catch me!"
Juanjuan squatted down, grabbed a handful of snow and threw it at it.
He dodged it easily and didn't forget to taunt Juanjuan.
"Woof woof. Can't hit it. Can't hit it."
Juanjuan chased after him with his short legs, fell in the snow, got up with his little butt sticking out, and chased after Songsong again.
A dog and a child ran around the yard.
When Si Jinchen woke up, he heard laughter outside. After listening carefully, he knew it was Juanjuan.
He put on his clothes and ran towards the yard downstairs, and saw Juanjuan chasing Songsong.
Songsong would stop from time to time to tease her, making her scream in anger.
"Juanjuan, let me help you." Si Jinchen ran over and chased Songsong with Juanjuan.
The two children and Songsong ran around the yard and threw snow at each other.
The housekeeper saw Madam Si standing by the window and looking in: "Madam, do you want the young lady and the young master to come back?"
Madam Si shook her head. "In the past, Ah Chen couldn't go out when winter came. Now, let them have fun. When they've had enough fun, take them to change clothes."
"I'm afraid their clothes must be soaked after running for so long. Ask Aunt Wu to make some ginger sugar water for the two children."
