Several servants were so aggressive that Qi Ning felt funny in his heart. He barely suppressed his temper and said: "You should know that I have been in the ring. The big black guy was knocked off the ring by my three punches and two kicks. Do you want to try it too?"
When several servants heard this, they immediately realized that this young man was not easy to deal with, and they immediately felt guilty.
The big man with a rough voice forced a smile and said: "Mr. Qi, Madam has something to tell you. It's still early, so there's no need to leave in a hurry. If you leave, we won't even have anything to eat. . When you go out, everyone takes care of each other, just wait for a while, and everyone will not be embarrassed."
Qi Ning knew that if he delayed any longer, Mrs. Tian would come over soon. It didn't matter if he was tougher on these people, and the threats would be over. However, Mrs. Tian was very sharp-tongued and difficult to deal with. He shouted softly: "Since we are taking care of you, you guys Take care of me first." He took two steps forward.
"Don't leave!" Several servants suddenly became anxious. The man with a rough voice reached out his stick and pushed it towards Qining's chest.
Qi Ning thought that if he didn't give him any clues, these guys really didn't know what they were doing. He didn't want to really fight with these servants. When he saw the big man's stick reaching over, it could just hit the mountain and shake the tiger. One hand had already reached over and grabbed it. Holding the end of the stick, he immediately pulled hard, as if trying to take the stick off.
Although several servants had received the order, it was difficult for them to really hurt Qi Ning. When Qin Ning grabbed the end of the stick, the wooden stick in the servant's hand was almost pulled away. Fortunately, his reaction was not too bad and he hurriedly used force. , gripped the wooden stick tightly, and shouted: "Are you really going to do it?"
Qi Ning just smiled faintly and increased his strength. The servant was thick and strong. He felt the stick being pulled away bit by bit. He felt a little anxious but unwilling to do so. He thought to himself how he could let this young man take the stick away and hold it with both hands. Qin Ning held the wooden stick and pulled it back hard. When Qin Ning saw that he had used up enough strength, he suddenly let go. The servant didn't take notice and took a few steps back and sat down on the ground.
Some of the other servants almost laughed out loud.
The servant suddenly became very angry and shouted: "Qi, you... you are bullying me too much. I can't let you go today." He stood up, shouted loudly, and rushed forward.
"Stop!" Suddenly a very cold and stern voice was heard. Everyone looked over and saw a strong man walking over, it was Duan Canghai.
Duan Canghai was standing at the moon-shaped arch of the entrance, looking coldly at this side. Ximen Zhanying stood outside the courtyard, glanced at it, sneered, and did not enter the courtyard.
"What are you going to do?" Duan Canghai strode into the courtyard and saw six or seven servants surrounding Qi Ning, some of whom were holding sticks in their hands. His face was very ugly: "You are so bold, do you know who he is?" who is it?"
"No matter who he is, he can't leave now." The servant fell down and felt annoyed.
At this moment, I saw the charming Mrs. Tian walking over from the corridor. She had an oval face and red phoenix eyes. She showed a touch of charming charm in her beauty. She had a pair of silver butterfly earrings hanging by her ears, and her hair was on her Lingxu bun. A silver hairpin is inserted sideways to hold Crow Crow's hair, beautiful yet dignified.
Qi Ning has also seen some women wearing Lingxu buns. He knows that this kind of bun has very strict requirements on a woman's temperament and appearance. Once she has an average appearance or mediocre temperament, she will be like a tiger but not a dog. But Qining is now It is certain that if there is only one woman in the world who is suitable for Lingyun bun, it is Mrs. Tian.
Mrs. Tian is obviously a person who is very aware of her own advantages. The Lingxu bun perfectly matches her mature and beautiful face, making her even more mature and solemn as a beautiful woman should be. But that beautiful face and that Her watery eyes still gave her a hint of coquettishness and cunning amidst her maturity and solemnity.
When this beautiful woman walks around, her waist is swaying and she is full of charm.
"Madam...!" Seeing Mrs. Tian coming over, the servants breathed a sigh of relief.
Mrs. Tian came forward, put her hands together, looked at Qining, and said with a half-smile, "What, you want to leave?"
Qi Ning smiled and said: "Madam will never keep me for dinner."
"How can we leave before the matter is over?" Mrs. Tian's smile was no longer as cordial as before, and she said: "You took over the ring, and now you don't explain anything clearly and just leave like this, then what about the hard work of my Tian family?" Isn’t it all in vain?”
"Hard?"
Mrs. Tian said: "Our Tian family first spent a month or two preparing the arena, and then setting up the arena. You have to know that if you set up an arena on the street, you have to pay a venue fee."
"What do you mean, madam?" Qining looked at Madam Tian's serious look, but felt a little funny in his heart. This beautiful woman seemed to be settling accounts.
"Also, my Tian family has sent more than a dozen people to guard the ring in the past three days. Their food, drink and wages are all distributed by our Tian family." Mrs. Tian's voice was soft, but her speed was very fast: "Eating, drinking and getting wages should be paid. We are doing things for the Tian family, but these days have been wasted in the ring, who do you think will bear the money?"
Qi Ning raised his hand and touched his nose and asked, "Does Madam want to settle accounts?"
"Of course we have to settle accounts." Mrs. Tian said resolutely: "We, the Tian family, are in business, and what we pay attention to in business is keeping promises and being honest. If we break our promises, we always pay double compensation."
Qi Ning smiled and said, "Madam, you are saying that if I don't agree to become your Tian family's son-in-law, I will have to repay your Tian family's losses twice as much?"
"Yes, that's what I mean." Mrs. Tian raised her neck slightly. Her skin was as tender as snow. When she raised her neck slightly, her slender snowy neck was revealed, with a hint of pride in her beauty.
Duan Canghai was startled, looked at Qining, and then at Mrs. Tian, wondering if the Marquis had really said that he could marry Mrs. Tian if he won the ring? Although Mrs. Tian is about thirty years old, she is extremely beautiful and charming. Being able to marry her is probably the dream of many men.
Qi Ning sighed: "Then how much money should I pay?"
"Since you don't agree to the marriage, if you violate the agreement in the arena, you must repay the one hundred taels of silver you received before." Mrs. Tian calculated: "We spent a month or two preparing for this matter. It's a pain in the butt, so I'll have to pay some money, the cost of setting up the arena, plus the lost wages for more than a dozen of them. Wait a minute, I'll think about it again, uh-huh, and besides, you also spent money on tea just now. Money, and more, I was originally happy, but if you broke the agreement, I will not be able to eat or sleep in the next few days, which will hurt my body, so... so I have to compensate."
Qining opened his mouth but was speechless.
"Anyway, if we can't get one thousand taels of silver, this matter can't be finished." Mrs. Tian's watery eyes stared at Qining, and she said with a half-smile: "Either you accompany our Tian family's one thousand taels of silver, remember, it's now Take out the silver now, either... or agree to the marriage of our Tian family, I won't force you, it's your choice."
Qining always felt like he had been deceived by a trap set by a fraud group. Not to mention a thousand taels of silver, he didn't even have 500 taels of silver on his body, but he still had dozens of taels of silver in his arms. Mrs. Hotan said There was a huge difference in the amounts mentioned, not to mention that it was impossible for him to just take out a thousand taels of silver. He coughed, shook his head and said, "Madam, a thousand taels of silver, I... don't have it!"
Mrs. Tian smiled, turned her beautiful eyes, and said, "Then you can't blame me."
Duan Canghai couldn't help but ask: "Mrs. Tian, can this matter be settled by becoming your son-in-law?"
"Who are you?" Mrs. Tian glanced at Duan Canghai and asked in confusion.
"I, Duan Canghai." Duan Canghai straightened his clothes, cupped his hands and said politely: "This is my... young master."
Mrs. Tian said "Oh" and then said: "I am not a greedy person, nor do I deliberately want your thousand taels of silver. As long as I agree to this marriage, we are a family, and naturally there is no need to compensate."
Duan Canghai smiled and said: "Madam, actually this matter can be solved easily. Isn't it just to be a son-in-law? My young master... is still young and not very suitable. I wonder if madam can consider letting someone else take my young master's place." They were all close together. Next to Ning, he whispered: "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything!"
"Someone else will take your place?" Mrs. Tian frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
Duan Canghai smiled and said: "Mrs. Tian, Duan is in his early forties this year and has not yet married. He is a decent person and very responsible. I wonder what Madam thinks of me?" He looked at Mrs. Tian and tried to act polite. His attitude: "Actually, there is still a certain age gap between my wife and my young master, so they are not very suitable."
Qi Ning turned his head and tried his best to hold back his laughter. It seemed that Duan Canghai had also fallen in love with Mrs. Tian. But it was no wonder that any man would be attracted by such a charming and beautiful woman.
Mrs. Tian was startled, but she quickly understood what she meant. Her pretty face turned hot instantly, and she stamped her feet and said, "Where did this madman come from? He is talking nonsense. You... come here and beat him out."
"Madam, what does this mean?" Seeing several servants coming up with sticks, Duan Canghai asked hurriedly: "What are you going to do? Madam, if you have something to say, let's talk it over. Let's not hurt our friendship. Do you have any other conditions? "
Butler Tian had also appeared next to Mrs. Tian at this time and said: "Our wife is looking for a son-in-law, not... that, she is looking for a husband for our young lady."
Duan Canghai was stunned for a moment, then he realized that he was really embarrassed, his old face felt a little hot, and he laughed dryly and said: "So... that's it. Madam, that's not a bad thing. Let's... let's sit down and discuss it carefully. What are we doing?" If you don’t agree, take action.”
"Kick him out, kick him out." Mrs. Tian was misunderstood by Qining and Duan Canghai successively, and she was very embarrassed.
Mrs. Tian's order was an imperial edict in the Tian Mansion, and all the family members rushed forward. Ximen Zhanying was standing by the moon-shaped arch, watching coldly and not intervening.
Duan Canghai protected Qi Ning. When he saw the servants rushing over, he knew that he was going to take action. He was afraid that it would be bad for both parties. He shouted loudly and said: "Who dares to take action? You... do you know that we are who?"
Mrs. Tian sneered and said, "I don't care who you are if you speak rudely. Get out of here right now."
"Madam, it seems that you really don't know who we are." Duan Canghai knew that if he didn't reveal his identity, the misunderstanding would deepen. He pointed at Qin Ning beside him and said: "This is the Marquis of Jinyi. How dare you be rude to the Marquis?"
Among the four great marquises of Chu, Jinyihou has the greatest reputation among the people. Women, children, old and young all know that Jinyihou is a famous general in the empire. When Duan Canghai called out, all the servants were stunned. Mrs. Tian's pretty face was startled, and for a moment Stay.
