Chapter 172
Originally, he was only recruited by his niece, so he might not be the one he loves, but now that his niece misses her so much, it can be seen that Master Qin is not completely absent from his heart.

He got into the carriage and went straight to the Qin residence.

The servant of the Qin residence saw that it was Miss Song Er who came, and hurriedly welcomed her in.

"Has Master Qin ever returned?"

She casually asked the boy at the door.

The young man bowed his body slightly, and quickly replied: "Master Qin just returned home a moment ago, and he is currently in the study."

Only then did Song Jinyue step into the Qin residence.

The servant wanted to welcome Second Miss Song directly to the study, but Song Jinyue waved her hand, signaling her to wait in the front hall.

The Qin family's mansion is not very spacious in the capital, but there are only three courtyards and two other gardens.

There is a set of red lacquered tables and chairs in the front hall, and a tea cup incense burner on the red lacquered Duobaoge shelf. Before you sit down, your own maidservant comes to serve you with refreshments.

Song Jinyue signaled Qiu Yun to put the chicken soup in her hand on the table, and then ordered the maid in Zhang's mansion to retreat.

She was eating tea and waiting for Qin Sheng's arrival.

It's just that Qin Sheng is still in the future, so Qin Wan came to find him first.

Today Qin Wan is wearing a light green double-breasted pleated skirt with bamboo leaves embroidered on her face, and emerald red hairpins on her hair. Her face is ruddy, and her complexion is a little better than before.

After saluting hastily, Qin Wan walked up to Song Jinyue with a strong smile on her face, "Sister Jinyue, why are you here? I thought I would go to the Duke's Mansion to look for you tomorrow."

She now has the appearance of a shy daughter, with an overhanging appearance and exquisite clothing and makeup.

Looking at it from the whole person, it is no different from the young lady who was raised in a deep boudoir.

Song Jinyue pulled her to sit down and talked, and then said: "I'll come to see Mr. Qin, and bring some chicken soup along the way."

Qin Wan smiled, with a playful smile in his eyes, tilted his head to look at the black lacquer food basket on the red lacquer table, stretched his neck, full of curiosity, "Sister Jinyue wouldn't even think about it." I!"

There was a bit of coquettish taste in his tone.

Song Jinyue smiled helplessly, pointed to the food basket, and said, "You have your share! You little greedy cat."

Qin Wan raised her lips and tilted her head twice, her bright eyes were curved, looking full of agility.

Seeing that Qin Sheng hadn't come yet, Song Jinyue casually asked about the Qin residence. She had been here before, but that was something she had never asked about the Qin residence.

"Who is in charge of the mansion now? How many servants are there, and where did they choose to enter the mansion? How many maids are serving by your side now?"

Song Jinyue asked them one by one.

"I don't know how to be a housekeeper. Right now, a steward whom my elder brother invited back from outside is in charge of the house."

"Besides me and my elder brother, there are currently twenty servants in the Qin residence. There are four gatekeepers, one steward, two nuns in the kitchen, and four maidservants. Elder brother has two servants, and I am surrounded by two maidservants. There are four maidservants serving and sweeping the house, and one..."

Qin Wan stopped talking suddenly, and looked at Song Jinyue with a strange expression.

Song Jinyue signaled to her that it's okay to speak up.

Only then did Qin Wan falter and say, "Also, there is another maid sent by Mr. Zhao..."

"But sister Jinyue, don't worry, since the maid entered the mansion, her brother has locked her in the woodshed."

Speaking of what her brother did, Qin Wan felt proud.

"Is it sent by Mr. Zhao from the Ministry of Officials?"

Song Jinyue was a little uncertain, and asked again.

"Yes."

Seeing Qin Wan nodding her head while talking.

Song Jinyue's eyes darkened, and she gradually became suspicious of the official Mr. Zhao.

Mr. Zhao sent a maid to Qin Sheng, but in fact he wanted to give a concubine.

It's just that no one in the capital now knows that Qin Sheng is the county horse she is about to marry?Isn't Mr. Zhao trying to offend her?

Seeing Song Jinyue's silence, Qin Wan thought she was annoyed, so she nervously took Song Jinyue's hand, and promised her: "Sister Jinyue, don't worry, my brother will never betray you!"

Song Jinyue twitched the corners of her lips, shook her head, and said nothing happened.

Asked again where these servants of the Qin Mansion bought them back, Qin Wan said that these people were all bought from a well-known Renya shop in the capital. The rules of the housekeeper's mansion.

Now there is nothing wrong.

Only then did Song Jinyue feel relieved.

While speaking, Qin Sheng came to the front hall.

Qin Wan got up and said goodbye, but Song Jinyue didn't stop her because she planned to get some news from Qin Sheng.

Seeing him walk in, Song Jinyue got up, walked to the table where the food box was placed, lowered her forehead slightly, and lifted the lid of the food box casually.

Self-care said: "I brought some chicken soup, you try it?"

Qin Sheng's heart throbbed. She had never treated herself like this before. Although the two had a marriage contract before, she always faced things alone.

Never mentioned it to him, as if the two of them were just friends who met a few times.

She has always treated him coldly and indifferently.

Looking at her delicate fingers like mutton fat white jade holding the white porcelain bowl of Ru kiln, she lifted her finger slightly forward, and the porcelain bowl containing chicken soup was only three inches away from him.

He took the chicken soup and motioned for her to sit down and talk.

"Don't worry, you eat the chicken soup first, and I'll talk about it later."

Qin Sheng nodded, and then slowly ate the chicken soup, although he knew that the chicken soup was just stewed in the kitchen.

However, it was sent by her, and she served it in front of him herself.

A warm current rippled in my heart.

There was a strong smile and inexplicable emotion in Qin Sheng's eyes.

Because he lowered his head, Song Jinyue had never seen him like this.

When he put the empty bowl on the side table, she took her own handkerchief and handed it over.

Qin Sheng was slightly stunned, and when he came back to his senses, he generously took a light purple handkerchief embroidered with orchids from her, wiped the corners of his lips lightly, and casually put the handkerchief into his arms.

Song Jinyue was startled, the handkerchief was just borrowed from him, so he didn't want to return it?

Seeing that Qin Sheng didn't intend to return it at all, Song Jinyue guessed that the handkerchief was really going to come back, so she simply let him go.

After moving his body and sitting upright, he asked, "Then Mrs. Shen, what is Master Du's plan?"

When the boy came to communicate, Qin Sheng guessed Song Jinyue's purpose.

He simply didn't want to hide it from her, because he was still the city inspector she sent.

"What Master Du means is that he wants the officials to take the Duke's wife to the City Patrolling Department when shopkeeper Li is caught."

"Don't worry. Right now, Mr. Wang of the Jingzhao Yamen and Mr. Du are trying the case of the witchcraft doll together, and today they also found out about the spies of the Yong'an pawnshop."

"I'm afraid there will be a shock in the court."

Song Jinyue knew about the relationship.

Yong'an Pawnshop has been in the capital for so many years, and now it is suddenly found out that the shopkeeper is a spy from the Northern Kingdom.

If there were no court officials to pave the way behind this scene, it would be impossible for Yong'an Pawnshop to stay in the capital for so many years.

"Be careful in everything, don't meddle in this matter again, I'm worried..."
