Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey! Chapter 210 - 118 Qiao Hongyan: Chen Jiusi, How Dare You Tak
Miss Qiao Hongyan said, "Why not ask for his opinion?"
Miss Qiao Hongyan, looking at Chen Jie, said, "Chen Jiusi, I think you’re quite good. How about you work for ? I can make decisions on behalf of your adoptive father, and I will imdiately release your sister. How does that sound?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Jie glanced at Peng Shizhong.
Peng Shizhong did not speak, and Chen Jie did not know whether Qiao Hongyan was being serious or joking. These half-joking requests are the hardest to refuse.
However, after thinking it over, Chen Jie imdiately had an idea. If you want to recruit , then let’s see who has the thicker face.
With this thought, Chen Jie bowed and said, "Thank you, Senior, for your kind offer. Since you’ve put it that way, it would be rude of to refuse. However, once a mber of the Fishing Guild, there’s no reason to betray it. Therefore, I boldly propose a compromise."
"What kind of compromise?"
Miss Qiao Hongyan squinted her eyes at Chen Jie.
Chen Jie said, "If the Senior does not mind, Jiu Si would like to take you as my godmother..."
Pfft...
Cough cough...
Everyone around burst out laughing upon hearing this, and several custors who were drinking tea even sprayed the water onto the custors opposite them.
But no one cared about that, instead, they were all staring at Chen Jie with strange expressions.
And they were giving Miss Qiao Hongyan weird looks as well.
Each face held a bizarre smile.
Miss Qiao Hongyan looked to be in her twenties. At such an age, to be Chen Jiusi’s godmother, could that be serious?
Moreover, in this house, there were so quite unique practices, similar to roleplay, and the role of the godmother was sotis necessary for certain scenarios.
So, Chen Jie’s proposed godmother sounded like he was teasing Miss Qiao Hongyan.
At this mont, a group of big shots looked at Miss Qiao Hongyan with bizarre expressions.
They even started picturing so odd scenarios: Godmother, your son is coming in~
Peng Shizhong laughed without restraint, "Hahaha... sure sure, if Miss Qiao Hongyan is willing to be my godmother, I agree hahaha..."
At this ti, Miss Qiao Hongyan’s complexion was unreadable, but one could feel her temperature drop by several degrees.
She had not expected Chen Jiusi would dare to tease her like this.
But she could not get angry, for Chen Jiusi was seriously proposing her as a godmother, and she could not find anything disrespectful about it. Everything else was just the wild imaginations of those around.
If she got angry now, it would seem like she was indeed the kind of godmother everyone was thinking of.
But if she didn’t get angry, she felt unsatisfied. For a mont, she was at a loss as to what to do with Chen Jie’s shalessness.
After a long ti, Miss Qiao Hongyan said, "Heh, Sect Master Peng, your adoptive son is slick. You should discipline him."
Peng Shizhong said, "Miss Hongyan, that’s where you’re wrong. My son sincerely wants to take you as his godmother. His desire to serve is crystal clear. Why are you unwilling now?"
Peng Shizhong held back laughter, barely keeping it in.
Miss Qiao Hongyan was fuming inside, but had nowhere to vent, so she could only say, "Fine, I can’t accept your adoptive son. Mrs. Liu, go bring the people out and let them take her away."
"Ah, brothel owner, this?"
Hmm?
Miss Qiao Hongyan glanced at Mrs. Liu, who imdiately responded, "Yes, I’ll go right away."
...
Back in the courtyard, the housekeeper said, "How is it? What’s the situation in the front yard?"
The slave replied, "Housekeeper, don’t worry. When has anyone ever left our establishnt? It won’t be a problem, rest assured."
"Right, you have a point. A rule that hasn’t been broken in twenty years, today won’t be the day it breaks, will it?"
"Yes, the housekeeper is correct."
"By the way, is that girl still causing trouble?"
"Yes, she still refuses to sleep."
The nanny thought for a while and then said, "Invoke the family punishnt. If she continues to make a fuss, give her ten lashes with the vine."
"Yes, housekeeper, I will go imdiately."
The slave said, but just then, another slave hurriedly ran back in, "Housekeeper, housekeeper!"
"What’s the matter? You look panicked."
The housekeeper frowned and asked.
"Housekeeper, there’s a standoff at the front. That girl’s brother-in-law is really formidable. He’s actually brought Peng Shizhong from the Thirteen Grand Protectors, and arrest officer Zhang Liye!"
"What!"
The housekeeper stood up with a start, her face showing shock. Who in Mianshui County didn’t know the fa of the Thirteen Grand Protectors? At this mont, her eyes widened.
She stood still, shifting from left to right.
"What’s the situation now?"
The slave said, "There hasn’t been any trouble. The brothel owner and the County Magistrate stepped in; they wouldn’t dare to make a move."
"Oh, you scared to death. Go and find out more."
"Yes."
The slave hurried off once more.
At this, another slave said, "Housekeeper, shall we still beat her?"
"Beat? Don’t be ludicrous, just wait. Tell the girls, just pamper that little ancestor for now."
"Yes."
The slave pondered for a mont and said, "Housekeeper, will we let the person be ransod away?"
Upon hearing this, the housekeeper said, "Impossible. The rules of Yihong House have been in place for twenty years; they cannot be broken. The brothel owner will not allow it to happen."
"But we can’t beat or scold the little ancestor anymore. Just keep her well taken care of."
The housekeeper said, thinking to herself, it’s no wonder that little brat was so arrogant; her brother-in-law did have so tricks up his sleeve.
But this is Yihong House, not a place where a couple of Thirteen Grand Protectors can just waltz in and ransom soone.
While they waited, the spy slave dashed back again and urgently reported, "Housekeeper, big trouble! Bai Mosheng from Guild Cao and Qin Ying from the Fishing Guild have also arrived."
"What!!"
The housekeeper’s face instantly turned sour.
She had been in Mianshui County for many years and knew the significance of these two n. Not ntioning their identity as Thirteen Grand Protectors.
Just considering their status alone, Bai Mosheng was the right-hand man of the Guild Cao, and the most trusted aide of Elder Liu.
Qin Ying was the Hall Master of the Fishing Guild’s second hall, with hundreds of followers. The weight of these two n together coming here was imnse.
