"How could this happen?" The second uncle was dumbfounded.

The third uncle stood up and pointed at Xia Ziming with trembling hands.

"Brother, you only do things like seizing other people's property, and you also provoked the commander of the Imperial Guard. Brother, do you think our family is living a good life?

"That's right! You don't know how to pick a soft persimmon. Can you provoke people from Jinyiwei?" The second uncle also shouted.

Xia Qingyao narrowed her beautiful eyes and chuckled.

This family is really hopeless.

Until now, what they cared about was never that it was wrong to snatch other people's property. They only cared that Xia Ziming was taking the property of Lin Rong, the commander of the Jinyiwei, and that it might be in danger.

If it were an ordinary person, they would only applaud and praise!

"Stop talking, what am I doing for? Isn't it also for our family to live a good life?" Xia Ziming felt that he had been wronged and wiped his face, his palms were covered with oil and sweat.

"I didn't know at the time that Du Lanzhi was actually Commander Lin's employee. What should I do now? Can any of you come up with a solution?"

Wang Xia frowned: "How about we quickly return the property to Commander Lin and make amends with him personally? I think the master has already taken the initiative to express his kindness and apologize. Lin Rong won't be so disrespectful?"

"Face? Who do you think you are?"

Xia Qingyao folded her hands and sneered. She no longer wanted to tolerate the Xia family and was too lazy to show off her mask to others.

"May I ask if you have any face to face in front of the commander of the Jinyi Guards?"

"Shut up! You are so powerful. You should think of a way out. Previously, when you saw your elder brother being beaten, you just stood on the bank. Now when big things happen, you only know how to make sarcastic remarks."

Mrs. Xia Wang roared, her voice sharp and angry: "Aren't you a high-ranking official? You have already served as a court judge, why can't you solve such a small problem at home?"

Xia Qingyao looked at Xia Wang's distorted face and changed her title for the first time: "Madam, this problem is so small, so of course I don't need such a high official position to talk about it, you can just go and do it.

.”

Blocked by Xia Qingyao's words, Xia Wang was shocked and angry. She didn't know why her beloved Qingyao suddenly changed her temper, and her face turned red with anger.

"You are so presumptuous!"

Xia Ziming caught her title: "Qingyao, what did you call your mother?"

"Sir, according to the rules, don't officials and officials have to be addressed by their status?" Xia Qingyao smiled and said suddenly:

"Oh, those who don't have a title can only be called madam, not madam. Don't you think that last time the second son of Prince Chen came to the house to greet the eldest lady and politely called her madam, the eldest lady was just madam?

Alright?"

"You, you, Xia Qingyao, what do you mean!" Xia Wang was so angry that she fell back.

"literal meaning."

Xia Ziming's heart skipped a beat: "Qingyao, why don't you call me your parents?"

"Do you really want me to tell you the reason?" Xia Qingyao raised the corner of her mouth.

Xia Ziming was shocked all over.

The Xia family's eyes were focused on Xia Ziming and Xia Qingyao, not knowing why.

"Boss, is there any reason why Qingyao didn't tell you?" Old Taijun asked curiously, "It's already this time. Is there anything that we can't let the whole family know?"

Xia Ziming did not answer.

Because all his strength was used to suppress his temper and fear.

Xia Qingyao looked at Xia Ziming and Xia Wang's expressions changing several times with interesting eyes like a cat playing with a mouse, and kindly let them go for the time being.

"I don't agree with the idea of ​​going to meet Commander Lin and throwing yourself into a trap. You can think of other ways."

"I said it but you said no, you have other ideas, come up with it!" Xia Wang also thought about it now. She knew why Xia Qingyao called herself that, and her heart seemed to be blocked.

The cloth was so suffocating that she couldn't breathe.

Xia Qingyan, who had been thinking seriously on the side, showed an "I'm very smart" expression.

"We don't have enough status to get in touch with the commander of the Jin Yiwei, but there are people we recognize who have enough status."

Xia Qingyan looked at Xia Ziming: "Father, don't we have a good relationship with Miss Su from the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion? Why don't we go find her and ask her to help negotiate peace? They are a noble family, so even if you want to come to Jinyiwei, you must be courteous.

Three points, right?”

Xia Ziming's eyes lit up and he punched his left palm with his right hand: "That makes sense."

"Yes, yes, Qingyan is smart!" Xia Wang nodded repeatedly, "Look for Miss Su. Miss Su is gentle and kind, and will definitely help."

Once they heard that someone could help intercede, the second uncle and the third uncle's family were relieved.

The old lady prayed to the Buddha repeatedly: "Amitabha, Amitabha, thanks to our family's many good relationships, we are also good friends with people of Miss Su's status."

Xia Qingxuan snorted coldly at the right time: "Some people are friendly with many noble people, but at the critical moment they have no effect."

Xia Wang was reminded by her daughter and stared at Xia Qingyao with furrowed brows:

"What's the use of raising you? On the day when you are going to marry Chen Yin, Prince Chen, Prince Chen's second son, and Prince Jing all stand up to speak for you.

"Right now, our family needs connections, but you are shrinking your neck and refusing to take action. If I hadn't been busy right now, I would have freed up my hands to teach you a lesson!"

"The eldest lady is joking." Xia Qingyao's smile widened, but there seemed to be an icy cold light brewing in her eyes, as if it was about to turn into an ice knife and pierce the person directly.

"The Xia family doesn't even teach people who gamble and export family heirlooms. I just don't have the ability to make friends with powerful people. Do I have to be taught a lesson?"

"I am just a doctor. Anyone who uses me to treat diseases will be on good terms with me. That's all. Does the eldest lady still think that with just a word from me, I can invite someone as distinguished as them to help solve the problem?"

Xia Wang found that even if she opened a few more mouths, she would not be able to quarrel with Xia Qingyao.

The family had no other choice but to send a letter written by Xia Ziming himself and send it to Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion to be handed over to Su Yurou.

Xia Qingyao hid her mouth and yawned in anger, making a bet for herself whether Su Yurou would come or not.

Just when she was betting that Su Yurou would definitely come, someone's voice came from outside: "Miss Su, the whole family is waiting for you here."

Not long after, Su Yurou was seen wearing a pea green skirt with stitching, a white collared gown, and a thick pea green veil on her face, holding a fan in her hand and entering the door.

Xia Ziming and Xia Wang stood up excitedly and looked at Su Yurou with concern.

But Su Yurou didn't even look at anyone, she only glanced at Xia Qingyao with hatred.

"Miss Su, please take a seat." Xia Ziming asked expectantly and with concern, "Miss Su, is your face healed yet?"

Su Yurou felt as if she had been stabbed in the heart. After a while, she forced out a smile and said gently and understandingly: "Mr.

"

Xia Ziming felt happy in his heart. The more he looked at Su Yurou, the more he liked her. He couldn't help but sigh that she was his biological daughter after all.

"I asked you to come here today to ask for your help to talk to Lin Rong, the commander of the Jinyi Guards."
