The beginning of the counterattack! The time-traveling boss is famous in Beijing

Chapter 208 Let’s get straight to the point

Si Heng, who had just returned from the capital, couldn't help but smile as he heard the laughter coming from the house next door.

Half an hour later, there were several empty wine jars on the table in the pavilion of the Qin Mansion.

Yunniang, who was suddenly in a good mood for drinking tonight, vowed to stay with Qin Ruo until she was drunk.

After finishing the jar of wine, Yunniang felt unsatisfied, so she asked someone to go back to the room and bring back several more jars.

How many times in life can you get drunk?

Qin Ruo did not stop Yun Niang. After coming to the Dasheng Dynasty, it was rare to meet someone who could talk so congenially.

So he and Yunniang had a great drink.

This drink knocked Yunniang unconscious.

Half an hour later, Banxia and Yiqiu supported Yunniang, who was unconscious and was known to be invincible in Ganzhou City when drinking, back to the guest room of the Qin Mansion.

Qin Ruo sat alone in the pavilion. Although her face was flushed from drinking, her eyes were clear.

She stood up, smoothed out the wrinkles on her clothes, and was about to leave when she suddenly stopped.

Qin Ruo picked up an unopened jar of wine on the table and threw it accurately towards the wall not far from the pavilion.

"When did you come back?"

"An hour ago." Si Heng, who was sitting on the wall, smiled slightly and reached out to catch the jar of peach blossom wine thrown by Qin Ruo.

Not long after Qin Ruo left Taihe County, Si Heng also left and returned to the capital.

After finishing his work in the capital, he rushed to Ganzhou without stopping. At this time, his face showed a trace of fatigue caused by traveling day and night.

"Are you free? How about having a drink together?"

Si Heng was the first to stand up from the wall of his house, and with the wine in his hand, he jumped lightly and flew onto the roof.

Qin Ruo held the jar of wine, walked to the wall that separated Si Heng's house, and jumped over it.

After the two sat down on the roof, Si Heng skillfully broke the mud seal on the wine jar, and a clear aroma of wine instantly filled the night air.

"Is everything going well?" Si Heng turned his head to look at Qin Ruo who was sitting next to him, and clinked the wine jar in his hand with Qin Ruo.

"Thanks to Mr. Si, it's not too bad. Isn't it? Brother Xue is in charge of all business matters." There was no ups and downs in Qin Ruo's tone.

After arriving in Ganzhou, Xue Jing was indeed the one handling most of the business matters, and she rarely showed up.

"Your mother... I have completed the matter you asked me to do. Shen Ruyi is still recuperating in Guangning Temple and is no longer in danger of her life." After taking a sip of peach blossom wine, Si Heng took the initiative to bring up the matter of Shen Ruyi.

Others don’t know the real news about Wu’an Marquis’ Mansion, but those people in the Dark Pavilion are not here to enjoy the feast.

When Mr. Shen arrived in Taihe County, he had already found out everything about Shen Ruyi.

Being imprisoned in the backyard and poisoned, with his life in danger, Shen Junxing was looking for talented people everywhere. He could hide these things from others, but not from the Dasheng Dark Pavilion organization.

Shen Junling, who was far away in Jiangnan, rushed back after hearing the news.

"What? Have you become soft-hearted towards the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion?" Seeing that Qin Ruo didn't say anything, Si Heng spoke again to break the silence.

"You're overthinking it. No matter how bad the Shen family is, she is still my mother. She's just fulfilling the friendship that once existed between Miss Shen and my father." When Qin Ruo mentioned Shen Ruyi, there was a hint of complexity in her eyes.

Before arriving in Ganzhou, Qin Ruo hesitated when she learned about Shen Ruyi's experience and wondered whether she should go to the capital in person for the sake of the original owner.

As for Shen Ruyi, some vague impressions can still be found in the memories left by the original owner.

Why did a talented woman who was once famous in the capital become a pawn in Tang Qingmei's hands and a fish on the chopping board after returning to Beijing?

Did he really have no strength to resist, or did he simply give up struggling and subconsciously erase everything from those years he lived in Changhe Village?

Qin Ruo had no interest in exploring the truth behind these things.

As a bystander, she felt a bit sad for their misfortune and angry at their lack of resistance.

In her opinion, using her own body as a bet to bet on Madam Shen's soft heart and enduring the hardship without any effort is not only a bad idea, but also a sheer fool.

People should live their lives decisively and without any procrastination.

Revenge when there is a grudge, and revenge when there is a grudge.

But on second thought, it seems unreasonable to use modern ideas to demand a girl who was born into a noble family and grew up under strict etiquette and legal doctrines.

At that time, Qin Ruo did not think too much about it. She called the brothers Qin Ziyan and Qin Zimu and told them the truth about Shen Ruyi's situation.

She gave two options for Qin Ziyan and his brother to choose from.

First, she would go to the capital in person to help Shen Ruyi get rid of the poison. She could also take them with her and meet Shen Ruyi secretly.

Second, she asked someone to go to Beijing and find someone to detoxify Shen Ruyi.

The choice made by the Qin Ziyan brothers was beyond Qin Ruo's expectations.

Both brothers said that they did not want Qin Ruo to be in danger. They had already accepted the fact that their mother had passed away ten years ago, and then the incident with Nanny Tian happened.

Neither of the brothers thought about asking for trouble.

After all, the Qin family and the Shen family in the capital are not the same kind of people, and I don’t want to have anything to do with them anymore.

It would be nice for everyone to return to their original positions.

But because she is their biological mother after all, even though she was absent for ten years during their growth process, the blood relationship between them is hard to give up.

Hearing that Qin Ruo could ask someone to go to the capital instead of showing up in person, the two brothers still hoped to save Shen Ruyi's life.

"Thank you, Mr. Si, for taking care of the Shen family's matter this time." Qin Ruo thanked Si Heng sincerely.

Ever since she had more interactions with Si Heng, she had seen all the overt and covert help that Si Heng had given her.

Although this person has a bit of a weird personality, he really cares about things.

"A Ruo, why should we thank each other? It's too formal!"

Si Heng looked at Qin Ruo deeply, and a hint of imperceptible tenderness flashed in his eyes.

The night breeze blew gently, carrying the lingering aroma of wine in the air. At this moment, even the moonlight seemed to become softer.

"Speaking of which, I am used to being free and undisciplined. I always thought that one day when I would earn enough money, I would travel around the world and go wherever I wanted. I can't live in the backyard, take care of my husband and children, compete with a group of irrelevant women, and revolve around my husband all day long. I am sixteen years old this year, and I always feel that I am still young and have never thought about marriage. Mr. Si, thank you for your kindness. Our status is too different and we are not suitable for each other."

Qin Ruo's face was calm. She met Si Heng's gaze without hesitation and took the initiative to break the window paper.

After arriving in Ganzhou, Qin Ruo calmed down and thought about everything Si Heng had done for her during this period, and finally she came to her senses.

This sixteen-year-old body contains a twenty-six-year-old soul.

She was not stupid, so she naturally understood what Si Heng meant. She decided to wait for Si Heng to return to Ganzhou and then be frank with him about her thoughts.

Although, in the Dasheng Dynasty, girls could get married at the age of fifteen.

But as a person who has been baptized by modern civilization, she cannot accept it.

Besides, she really has no plans in this regard now.

Not keeping other people's enthusiasm suspenseful is the most basic morality and cultivation of being a human being.
