Chapter 442 Inquire
Song Ruize washed the burned area of Qin Huiyin with water, then looked at it carefully. Seeing that his fingers were still red, he bent down and blew on them.
"You don't have to do these jobs yourself, just let them do it."
"But they can't make the craftsmanship you like!" Qin Huiyin withdrew her fingers.
"They can't do it, but I don't want you to get hurt more than I want to satisfy my taste buds."
"I'll be more careful next time." Qin Huiyin pushed him. "You've come just in time. Breakfast is ready. Eat before going to work."
Qin Huiyin brought over the prepared soup dumplings, steamed buns, and steamed eggs with milk.
When she brought over breakfast, Song Ruize was not idle either. He put the dishes and chopsticks in place and moved her stool next to his.
"I heard you came back at midnight, and you've only slept for two hours. Is that okay?"
"Do you think your brother is in trouble?" Song Ruize asked her seriously.
Qin Huiyin: "..."
Okay, she just asked an unnecessary question.
If he really couldn't do it, he wouldn't get up so early in the morning to practice boxing.
As expected, it’s good to be young, full of energy and vigor.
"By the way, what happened at Yuzhu Pavilion?" Qin Huiyin asked curiously, "When Brother Qibin came to see you yesterday, he was talking about the incident at Yuzhu Pavilion."
"You are so bold that you even dare to bring it up." Song Ruize said with a forced smile.
Qin Huiyin: "..."
Yes, she was a little bit carried away.
Maybe because he didn't come to settle the score with her yesterday, she thought the matter was over.
"Brother, listen to my explanation." Qin Huiyin hugged his arm, "This is all for my sisters."
"Your sister ordered dozens of young men for you and asked them to sit on your lap?"
"No, absolutely not. If you don't believe me, you can go ask Sister Luwu. She is a famous honest person." Qin Huiyin blinked and looked at Song Ruize very sincerely.
"I heard that the young man named Changfeng is very handsome. What do you think?"
"Really? I think that's just the way it is!" Qin Huiyin said, "If I say good-looking, how can anyone be better than you? Brother is the most handsome man in the world."
There was a flash of discomfort in Song Ruize's eyes.
Qin Huiyin noticed that Song Ruize's earlobe was red.
She laughed secretly.
Although he has a stern face all day long and is very dignified when handling official business, he is actually still a young man.
"That Changfeng is involved in a murder case and is currently being held in the Ministry of Justice's prison. From now on, you are not allowed to go to a filthy place like Yuzhu Pavilion. Do you understand?"
"Okay, it's up to you."
Song Ruize took out a handkerchief and wiped the oil stains from the corner of her mouth.
He was suddenly so close that Qin Huiyin's heartbeat was disturbed. She blinked, held her breath, and watched Song Ruize's movements.
"Ok?"
It took a while to wipe.
Song Ruize's gaze rested on those rosy lips.
Her lips were like rose petals, moist, shiny, soft and looked very sweet.
"Yeah." He suppressed the restlessness in his body and withdrew his hand.
After Song Ruize had breakfast, he first sent Qin Huiyin back to Tang's house, and then went to the East City Military Headquarters to report for duty.
Tang family.
Qin Huiyin saw the invitation in her hand and replied directly: "No."
"This is an invitation from the Minghua County Magistrate. Wouldn't it be a shame not to go?" Tang Luwu said, "This Minghua County Magistrate is the daughter of Princess Jinglan. I heard that Princess Jinglan is the younger sister of the current emperor and is very favored! The Minghua County Magistrate grew up by the Empress Dowager's side and is as privileged as the princesses in the palace."
"I've been in the spotlight lately, and every time I attend a banquet, it's like walking on a tightrope. Anyway, my brother's official position is still low, so even if he finds an excuse not to go, no one will care."
Tang Luwu always listened to Qin Huiyin, and when she said she didn't have to go, she had no objection. If anyone was the last person to attend such a banquet, it would probably be Tang Luwu. She really didn't want to socialize with those noble ladies.
Qin Huiyin didn't want to go, so she found an excuse to go back. On the day of the banquet, she stayed at home to make wine, and only went out for some fresh air after the banquet was over.
"Something happened, something happened." Xia Ruwan ran in from outside.
Qin Huiyin was drawing her eyebrows, and she was so startled that her eyebrows were drawn crooked. She wiped them with a wet handkerchief, put down the eyebrow pencil and looked at Xia Ruwan.
"Boss Xia has seen a lot of things. What could possibly be so devastating as to make you lose your composure?"
"It's a big deal, a very big deal." Xia Ruwan came over and squeezed in with her on the chair. "I'm telling you, it's a good thing you didn't go to the party today, otherwise you would have been the one in trouble."
Qin Huiyin became interested when she heard this.
She didn't go to banquets because they were all like Hongmen Banquets lately. She didn't know why she, from a small town, had gotten into so much trouble, with everyone pushing her into the spotlight.
"Tell me, what's the fun?"
"The eldest young master of the Zhu family has gotten himself into trouble again," Xia Ruwan said. "It's said that the fourth young lady of the Gong family had soiled her clothes, and while she was changing, the young master barged in. It was quite a coincidence that the maidservant next to Miss Gong thought there was a lecher and called a lot of people over, and they were caught red-handed."
"Isn't the fourth young lady of the Gong family Gong Qianyue?"
"Yes, it's that Gong Qianyue."
"Gong Qianyue's girl thought there was a lecher and yelled loudly, attracting many people. Doesn't that sound strange?"
"That's right, it's strange." Xia Ruwan said, "I heard that the third young lady of the Gong family, Gong Qianmiao, also got her clothes dirty. The two sisters of the Gong family changed clothes in the east wing and the west wing respectively. These two places are very far apart! That young master Zhu got drunk, and the servant took him to rest. Originally, he was taken to the east wing, but the servant who was leading the way was suddenly called away, and another servant took him to the west wing. If you said that Young Master Zhu went to the east wing correctly, who would he see? Was it the third young lady Gong? Now he went to the wrong wing, and the person he saw was the fourth young lady Gong."
Qin Huiyin rubbed her brows and said, "This is more of a headache than all the accounts I've been doing all day."
"That's right," Xia Ruwan continued, "Everyone knows that Master Zhu has been having a hot affair with that prostitute named Xing'er lately, and they're very close! The reason Master Zhu was willing to attend the banquet was because he wanted to use the County Lord's banquet to invite the young men and young ladies of the major families to attend his wedding banquet."
"Young Master Zhu wants to marry a prostitute?"
"The Zhu family has been in a lot of trouble lately. The eldest son Zhu is determined to marry a prostitute. The Zhu family disagrees, but they can't persuade him and have agreed to let him take her as a concubine. The eldest son Zhu is also a romantic, and now his heart is completely focused on that prostitute. Even if he wants to take a concubine, he has to invite others to the wedding. Do you think this man is mentally ill? He liked you before, and I thought he was quite normal. Now it seems that he stays in the backyard all day, and his mind is weird."
