298 Chapter 1: supervisor’s gift (1)

They seemed to be in a hurry. They were his colleagues. Could it be related to him?

“My Lords, please follow me.” Old Zhang bowed and nodded.

Nangong qianrou got up and followed the gatekeeper old Zhang through the front hall to the backyard. In the distance, he saw a child wearing a small cloth bag. He could only be considered cute, and he was being led out by a stunningly beautiful girl in a long dress.

The child pursed his lips and reluctantly followed.

The two sides met face to face. The girl stopped and looked at the three night watchmen in shock.

“The three lords have something to discuss with the master.” Old Zhang explained.

Xu lingyue nodded reservedly, looked away, and pulled the little bean to the side.

With one hand held by her sister, Xu lingying raised her other hand and pointed at Nangong qianrou with her short and thick fingers.

“What a beautiful big sister. She’s as beautiful as mother.”

Pretty sister? The expressionless Nangong qianrou almost lost her composure. She turned her head in disbelief and stared at Xu lingying, the corners of her eyes twitching.

Was this child an idiot? Were eyes just for decoration?

He raised his head slightly to let the child see his Adam’s apple. However, the stupid child did not understand what he meant at all. He kept shouting, ”

“Sister, you’re as beautiful as my mother.”

She seemed to think that being as beautiful as her mother was a very high evaluation. historical

Nangong qianrou flicked her sleeves and left. If it was anyone else who dared to call him a woman, they would be skinned even if they didn’t die. It was just that he was a dignified golden gong, and he was too lazy to argue with a child.

Xu lingyue watched Nangong qianrou and the other two leave before entering the hall.

“Sister, why aren’t you walking?” Xu Ling raised her palm-sized face.

“They are big brother’s colleagues, let’s go to the hall later.” Xu lingyue said gently as she led her sister back.

In the back hall, Xu Pingzhi, who had just finished eating, hurriedly stood up and went up to him. He was a little puzzled and a little scared. He cupped his fists and said,”Lord Jin Luo.”

Xu Pingzhi had not expected the Grand golden gong to visit the Xu family.

With Jin Gong’s noble status, even if Xu Qi ‘an was doing well in the Yamen, it was impossible for him to lower himself to the house of a Gong.

Unless there was an important matter.

This Jin Luo was quite beautiful. From a distance, one would think that she was a woman, and she was not inferior to Erlang, who looked like a man and a woman ... Xu Pingzhi thought.

“Pretty sister.”

The little boy followed Xu lingyue back and stood at the threshold, calling out to her in a fawning manner.

‘This kid is so annoying. I’ll make you cry Later ... Nangong qianrou frowned. Thinking of Xu Qi ‘an’s death, her heart sank.

His eyes swept past Xu Pingzhi and looked at the beautiful woman at the table. The child was not lying. She was indeed a beautiful woman.

“Lord Jin Luo, what brings you here?” Xu Pingzhi asked.

Nangong qianrou retracted her gaze, and after a moment of silence, she said in a deep voice, ” Xu Qi ‘an died in the line of duty in Yunzhou. I’m here to give you compensation.

As he spoke, he opened his palm, and the gong behind him handed over the silver with a silent expression.

Nangong qianrou passed another three hundred taels of silver to Xu Pingzhi, but he did not accept it. He was stunned and stood still like a stone carving.

Even his eyes were frozen.

Xu Qi ‘an had died in the line of duty ... Nangong qianrou’s words were like thunder that exploded in Xu Pingzhi’s ears, causing his soul to scatter and his organs to rupture.

In an instant, he felt as if the entire world had lost its color. His mind was filled with bad news, and all his hopes were dashed.

Xu Qi ‘an was his nephew and the orphan of his elder brother. He had raised him for 20 years, so how was he any different from his own son? No, he loved her even more than his own son.

Second uncle Xu had always felt a strong sense of responsibility for Xu Qi ‘an, because he was the only one left of his brother’s bloodline.

Xu Pingzhi’s greatest wish in his life was to raise him, to see him get married and have children, and to bear more children for his eldest son.

Now, this nephew was gone. Just like that?

In his daze, Xu Pingzhi suddenly heard the sound of someone falling. He turned around and saw that his wife had fainted.

“Sister, what’s a death in the line of duty?”

Xu lingying didn’t understand. She raised her head and looked at Xu lingyue.

Xu lingyue didn’t answer. She stood there numbly, like a lifeless paper flower, beautiful but pale.

“He died in the line of duty.” Old Zhang started crying.

Nangong qianrou sighed in her heart and placed the silver on the table, “”In three to five days, the skeleton will be sent back to the capital. You should prepare for the funeral in advance.”

The eight-hundred-mile urgent document had naturally arrived in the capital before the corpse.

With that, Nangong qianrou turned around to leave.

“You’re lying!”

The roar of a little lion was heard. Xu lingying stood in front of the three night watchmen and glared at Nangong qianrou menacingly.

A six-year-old child already knew what death was.

Nangong qianrou ignored him and walked around Xu lingying, continuing to walk out. But Xu lingying refused to let him go. He chased after him and beat him up, shouting, “”You’re lying, you’re lying!”

A child’s thinking was very simple. As long as they beat the scammer and made him take back his words, big brother would come back. As long as they beat the scammer, big brother would come back ...

Nangong qianrou could only pick up her pace and leave the Xu Manor with the two gongs. After walking for a long distance, he turned back with worry.

The child persistently chased after him and stood alone at the door, crying and wailing. His small body kept trembling.

...

She was like a little beast that had been abandoned.

Nangong qianrou suddenly felt a little regretful. She should have waited a little longer for the child to go to school before telling him about Xu Qi ‘an’s death.
