Picked Up A Husband For Farming - Chapter 54

Chapter 54: Meeting the Gentle Man Again

Xu Qing thought for a long time and finally decided to go to the Yin family’s manor to ask Lei Wangshu. She believed that she would definitely be able to find someone truly capable with her connections.

When Xu Qing found the Yin family’s residence, she couldn’t help but sigh. As expected of the richest family in town, it was magnificent.

When the guard at the door saw Xu Qing, he was quite polite. “Miss, who are you looking for?”

“I’m looking for the Young Madam of the Yin family, Lei Wangshu,” Xu Qing replied politely.

However, as soon as Xu Qing finished speaking, before the guard could answer, she was interrupted by an arrogant female voice. “Where did you come from? This is the Yin family’s residence! It’s not a place for people like you. Be careful.” A woman in her twenties looked at Xu Qing in disdain.

The guard was in a difficult position, but he didn’t dare to disobey this woman. He said respectfully to the woman, “Second Madam.”

Xu Qing raised her eyebrows slightly. It seemed that this woman’s status in the Yin family wasn’t low.

However, was she dressed badly? Why did the other party look down on her so much? Xu Qing didn’t feel that conflicted and only sighed. She shouldn’t have come here. The Yin family was a huge family and had many businesses. There were also many troubles. She should ask elsewhere. Thinking of this, Xu Qing said politely, “Then I’ll visit again when I have the chance.” Then, she turned around and left.

That woman had a smug expression. It was all thanks to her. Otherwise, anyone would try to curry favor with the Yin family!

After Xu Qing left, she found a lively tea house. Most of the small tea houses in the town had a storytelling team.

…

“Do you know who is the best at building houses in this town?” Xu Qing ordered a few plates of snacks and a pot of tea.

The waiter was a boy in his early twenties and was very enthusiastic. “There are many people in our town who build houses, but there’s only one who’s the best at it. The houses he build are the most stable and beautiful. I heard that they can even withstand an earthquake. Did you see the Yin family’s residence? That’s what he built when he was young. It’s very majestic! However, this person has a bad temper. Perhaps it’s because he’s old and is financially stable. He doesn’t build houses anymore. As for the othersâ€¦”

The boy was about to continue when Xu Qing interrupted him. “Just tell me about that person with a bad temper.”

The boy was surprised and didn’t understand. However, seeing that this woman gave him a lot of money, he didn’t hide it. “His name is Bai Zhuo. He’s an old man in his fifties and is sloppy. He lives in the last alley of the tail street. You’ll see him when you go there.”

Xu Qing nodded in thanks, but she wasn’t in a hurry. Perhaps she was tired from being busy recently and wanted to relax for a while. However, this teahouse’s storytelling was very exciting. No wonder this teahouse had the best business.

“Speaking of which, the God of War carried a single saber and rode his horse, Kun Tian, through the enemy army. Wherever he passed, corpses were everywhere, and blood flowed like a river. In the end, the God of War jumped up from Kun Tian and descended in front of the enemy leader!”

“And then?” Everyone stared at the storyteller anxiously.

The storyteller’s emotions surged as he continued, “The God of War chopped off the head of the enemy’s leader with a single slash. Blood dyed the ground red and shocked the tens of millions of enemy troops, who knelt on the ground with both hands and handed over the surrender letter!”

Xu Qing only smiled when she heard that. Storytellers were the best at exaggerating. After all, if that War God was so powerful, why did he go missing after being injured?

Xu Qing was drinking tea when a gentle male voice sounded. “Miss, is that you?”

Xu Qing turned around and saw the surprised Lei Yanning. She put down the teacup in her hand and said, “Mr. Lei.”

“Can I sit here?” Lei Yanning looked at the seat opposite Xu Qing and asked.

Xu Qing nodded.

“May I know your name, Miss? I haven’t thanked you properly for saving my sister’s life last time.” Lei Yanning smiled warmly.

Xu Qing couldn’t refuse this time. “My name is Xu Qing. As for what happened last time, I just happened to encounter it. It wasn’thing.” As she spoke, Xu Qing finally saw Lei Yanning’s appearance clearly. Last time, because she was worried about the patient, she didn’t care about anyone else and only remembered that a gentle man was talking to her. Now, it seemed that she couldn’t be blamed for having a deep impression of his gentleness. This man looked very warm and gentle. His facial features were soft, and there was a tender smile on his face. He was a gentleman.

“My sister has always been grateful to you, Miss Xu. Is it convenient for you to come with me to the Yin family’s home? Let my sister thank you in person.” Lei Yanning couldn’t explain why, but he hoped that Xu Qing could agree.
