The Westerner understood immediately, put on an attentive smile, and surrendered to Qing Lingyi: "Madam, it's the young people who have been fooled by lard, and are drunk and talking nonsense!"
"From now on, we will do our best to assist you and we will not hesitate in the slightest!"
"Don't worry, madam!"
“……”
Qing Lingyi silently thought that maybe Cheng Yang didn't hate her that much.
What he was doing now was clearly helping her.
She turned her head and looked behind her.
About two steps away, Cheng Yang stood with his hands behind his back. His tall and broad figure was oppressive. His face was expressionless and his eyes were dark and cold.
Sensing the attention, he rolled his eyes and looked over.
When their eyes met, Qing Lingyi bent her eyes and raised a huge smile.
This was her way of saying thank you.
Cheng Yang looked at it and raised the corners of his lips inexplicably.
Qing Lingyi turned around again: "Don't be afraid, I'm here to ask, which one is the counting house, Jiao Er?"
Compared to Cheng Yang's sharp and cold voice, her soft voice was like rain falling from the sky after a disaster.
A middle-aged man raised his upper body and said, "It's the villain."
He looked at Xi, who was in his teens, with a round face, dark skin, and a little bit of weight.
Qing Lingyi nodded: "Okay, get up. From now on, I will be in charge of the house, and I will take a look at those account books."
"Yes! Madam!"
Things went smoothly, Qing Lingyi and Cheng Yang walked back side by side, with Grandma Qi and Jiao Er following behind.
"By the way," Qing Lingyi approached Cheng Yang, "General, I haven't asked yet, why are you here?"
"I happened to be passing by." Cheng Yang's face was expressionless.
Qing Lingyi was surprised: "Is it a coincidence?"
"Um."
"What a coincidence!"
Cheng Yang smiled, it was so damn easy to lie.
"However, even if you are passing by, you have helped me a lot. If it weren't for you, I might not be able to be so relaxed," Qing Lingyi said, "You have helped me such a big favor. I really don't know how to thank you."
Cheng Yang was waiting for her to say this.
He said slowly, "You are a good cook."
The smile on Qing Lingyi's face widened: "General, do you like to eat what I cook?"
Cheng Yang said coldly: "General."
Qing Lingyi was already very happy: "But I have to learn to be a housekeeper these days. I am quite busy and have no time. Fortunately, the dried meat I made can be eaten today. I will give it to you to try when I get back."
Cheng Yang frowned: "Dried meat?"
During the march, they would prepare some dried meat. He had no sense of taste. The dried meat was hard and tasteless. It tasted like wax and was really difficult to swallow.
No matter how superb her cooking skills are, how delicious can the jerky be?
"Don't look disgusted. The dried meat I make is more delicious than the fresh meat made by others. Just enjoy it if you can taste it."
Even though she said this, Cheng Yang still didn't have much hope.
Seeing that he was about to arrive at Jingchen Pavilion, he said indifferently: "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Qing Lingyi asked: "Aren't you going to see your mother?"
"No need for today." After saying that, Cheng Yang lifted his legs and left.
Qing Lingyi said to his back: "I'll feed you dried meat when I get back at night!"
Cheng Yang didn't look back.
Qing Lingyi looked away and entered Jingchen Pavilion.
Seeing Jiao Er behind, Mrs. Xue was quite surprised: "Lingyi, you are quite capable!"
Qing Lingyi smiled and said: "The general helped."
The old lady was even more surprised: "General?"
The cold-faced King of Hell she gave birth to?
He would actually help?
"Did you beg him?" The old lady only wanted this possibility.
"No," Qing Lingyi said honestly, "We just met by chance and he helped me."
The old lady didn't believe that her youngest son would do anything good.
There must be something fishy in this!
Qing Lingyi said again: "Don't worry, mother, I will thank him tonight."
When Mrs. Xue heard this, her ears instantly turned red.
Say thank you for tonight, then she will understand.
Between husband and wife, isn’t that all about bed?
Whatever you ask for or not, it’s all just for fun.
Qing Lingyi didn't understand Mrs. Xue's crooked smile, but she didn't have time to pursue it. She had to get busy.
It took a whole day to look at some old accounts from previous years.
At dusk, Qing Lingyi and Bi Wei finished reading another book. One was lying down, the other was lying down, and they both collapsed on the Arhat bed.
"Madam, I am so tired. I feel like I have turned into a cow and plowed 500 acres of land in one day." Biwei said.
"I'm so tired too. I feel like I built the General's Mansion from the inside out all by myself today," Qing Lingyi said.
The two were talking and wanted to just lie there with their eyes closed.
But Qing Lingyi remembered that she still had something very important to do, and she got up with sheer perseverance.
Bi Wei felt it and opened her eyelids: "Madam, what's wrong?"
"I promised the general that I would go back tonight to thank him."
"I'll go back with you."
"Then hurry up," Qing Lingyi said, "I'm afraid the general will be impatient."
Old Mrs. Xue listened and her ears turned red again.
Third Master is in his prime of life, so why aren't you in a hurry?
I don’t know how intense tonight is going to be…
Biwei also got off the Arhat bed, and Qing Lingyi supported each other back.
Stepping into Yanshan Residence, Qing Lingyi asked, "Are you hungry?"
Bi Wei shook her head: "I'm so tired that I don't even have the energy to eat."
Qing Lingyi understood: "Then you go and rest first. I will just take the dried meat to the general alone."
Biwei: "..."
Bi Wei said seriously: "Madam, actually I'm not that tired."
That's the jerky made by Madam!
Absolutely impossible to miss!
Qing Lingyi chuckled: "I knew you would say that. Let's go to the small kitchen."
In the evening, the small kitchen is not as stuffy as it was during the day.
Qing Lingyi took out the dried meat that had been marinated yesterday and tore off a small piece.
Bi Wei took the initiative to open her mouth.
Qing Lingyi handed it over.
Bi Wei took one bite and her eyes were full of happiness: "It's delicious!"
Qing Lingyi also ate a small piece herself. Indeed, it was at her level.
She took out a sapphire plate and filled it with dried meat.
Eating this alone would definitely be too dry or too greasy. A few days ago, Qing Lingyi discovered that there were dried citrons on the shelf. Now she took a few slices, soaked them in water, and added a little rock sugar.
Then he took out the peach wine given by Mrs. Xue yesterday and blended the two together.
She first poured a small cup for Biwei: "Try it."
Biwei took a sip and was so moved that she almost cried: "It tastes good!"
Qing Lingyi smiled and poured a large glass and placed it in front of Bi Wei.
Put the rest into a small pot, add the plate of dried meat, and chopsticks, and put them on the tray.
"I'll take these to the general. You can stay here to eat. After you're full, go back to bed." Qing Lingyi said.
Biwei nodded.
Qing Lingyi took the things and went to the study first.
Just as she was about to step into the door, a cold light suddenly shone, and an iron sword stabbed towards her head-on!
