Xu Zhao was agile and caught the scalding hot teapot. He spun it in a fancy way and placed it back on the table respectfully. He then said to Hong Xiu, "Are you the maid next to my sister-in-law? Your behavior just now was correct for outsiders, but - I am not an outsider. Humph!"

Hong Xiu was astonished by his skills, and was even more shocked by his unreasonable words. She was afraid that Jiang Hao would have something to do with the young man in front of him, so she scolded him, "Don't talk nonsense and ruin my young lady's reputation. Do you know who my young lady is?"

Xu Zhao certainly knew who Jiang Hao was now, but Jiang Huaiqing was just a seventh-rank county magistrate. If he hadn't identified Jiang Hao as his sister-in-law, he wouldn't have had anything to do with the Jiang family.

The crime does not extend to married women, so he has to coax his sister-in-law back home as soon as possible.

It’s a pity that my brother doesn’t work hard, otherwise he would definitely get twice the result with half the effort!

"Sister-in-law, my elder brother is next door... Ouch... Ouch..."

Before Xu Zhao could finish his words, someone grabbed his ears from behind and he screamed in pain.

"You didn't listen to what I told you, did you?"

"It hurts, brother, it hurts..."

“Pain makes one remember.”

Xu Xing was completely convinced by Xu Zhao and couldn't help but keep an eye on him.

Is Jiang Hao so pleasing to him?

Thinking of this, Xu Xing subconsciously looked at Jiang Hao.

Coincidentally, Jiang Hao was also looking at him.

Jiang Hao saw him looking at him and smiled at him politely. Just when he was about to ask him to sit down and talk about "Xu Zhao", he heard Hong Xiu angrily said to Xu Xing: "Keep an eye on your brother, or else if you insult my young lady's reputation, my master will make you pay for it!"

Xu Xing, however, did not even look at Hong Xiu. He let go of Xu Zhao's ear and apologized to Jiang Hao: "My brother was reckless and did things without thinking. I hope the young lady can forgive me."

This was the second time Xu Xing apologized to Jiang Hao.

Hong Xiu wanted to say something more, but Jiang Hao held her hand in advance. She looked at Xu Zhao who was rubbing his ears with a meaningful look and said with a smile, "It's indeed a bit reckless."

"Apologize!"

Xu Xing grabbed Xu Zhao and gave an order.

"Brother, what did I do wrong?"

Xu Zhao refused to repent and was obsessed with his mistake: "I just think that my sister-in-law and you are the best match in the world."

This damn kid is never going to stop, right?

These two brothers, one plays the good cop and the other plays the bad cop, could it be that they know the young lady's identity and want to scam her?

When Hongxiu thought of this, she suddenly became nervous, fearing that the two men's evil plan would succeed.

"Miss……"

Jiang Hao stood up and looked back and forth between the brothers Xu Xing and Xu Zhao. Xu Zhao smiled at her innocently, but Xu Xing felt a little uncomfortable.

If Xu Xing did not know Jiang Hao's identity and background, it would be hard for him to imagine that the temperament she exuded was that of the daughter of a seventh-rank county magistrate.

"Miss, my brother is naughty and it's really my fault for not disciplining him properly..."

"You are quite strict."

Jiang Hao interrupted Xu Xing and finally looked at Xu Zhao: "Come, drink this cup of tea."

After she finished speaking, she personally poured a cup of tea for Xu Zhao.

……

"Miss, you just scared me to death."

After leaving the teahouse, Hongxiu was still a little scared. When she thought of Xu Zhao's mouth rotting at a speed visible to the naked eye, she trembled.

What’s more frightening is that the two brothers might do something extreme.

Fortunately... no.

Jiang Hao was not worried, and said calmly: "Trouble comes from the mouth, so why not help him cure his mouth."

Xu Xing stood by the window of the teahouse, watching Jiang Hao's back as he left. He listened to Zhang Zhongjing mumbling while treating Xu Zhao's mouth. He murmured, "Could it be that someone deliberately interfered with the previous investigation results?"

"Woooooooo..."

Xu Zhao was heartbroken. Why did his sister-in-law treat him like this?
