Ming Jia was really worried that her father would show off in front of Yang Tingxuan, so she quickly spoke up to dispel her father's suspicion.

"My master has no other intentions, she is the direct daughter of Dingyuan Hou Mansion!"

Xiao Qingshan... also has the same principle!

"That's what you say, but why does it feel weird?"

Mingjia lowered his head and heard his father's whisper, grinning silently.

"Dear daddy, don't blame me for not telling you! You really can't hide things!"

After Xiao Qingshan finished chatting with his daughter Mingjia, his uneasiness decreased a lot and he went back to the backyard with peace of mind.

After Xiao Qingshan left the study, Mingjia took out the half-written "Opinions on the Moderation of the Tea-Horse Trade Road in Dianzhou" from the drawer.

Mingjia had actually written this thing a long time ago, but she never received a reply from her master, and Mingjia never found the right time to take it out.

"Master! Master!"

Mingjia suddenly heard Shuang'er's exclamation, and Mingjia immediately stood up and walked out.

Mingjia and Shuang'er met at the door of the study. Mingjia found that Shuang'er's expression seemed to be surprise, and Mingjia slowed down.

Ming Jia can let go of everything now, except that she is afraid of Dong's sudden attack in the backyard.

"Master, Master Shen Qi is here! However, Master Shen is in a bad state!"

Mingjia was about to turn around and go back to the study. She was stunned for a moment and then immediately gave the order.

"Send Uncle Shen Qi to Fourth Uncle Cheng's yard. Send someone to ask for a doctor from the nearest hospital first! In addition, send a boy to ask for Mr. Ye."

"Master, Mr. Ye has arrived! Mr. Ye has brought Chuanwu to celebrate your birthday. The master was chatting with you just now, so he went to the backyard to check his wife's pulse."

"Let's go and have a look!"

Mingjia and Shuang'er hurried to Cheng Si's yard. As soon as they turned around the corridor, they saw many people in Cheng Si's yard.

Mingjia didn't see Shen Qi and Ye Liangsheng, but she caught sight of Chuanwu walking among a group of adults.

"Chuanwu, why are there so many people?"

Chuan Wu was busy bandaging the wounds of several seriously injured guards when he suddenly heard Ming Jia's voice.

"Master Mingjia, you don't have to come over yet! They all have varying degrees of wind and cold, and it is very likely that they will be infected!"

Mingjia didn't pay much attention to Chuanwu's words, but Shuang'er pulled Mingjia back: "Master, listen to Chuanwu!"

"Where's Fourth Uncle Cheng? He should be in the house today!"

Seeing that Mingjia had stopped, Chuanwu breathed a sigh of relief, "Just obey!"

"There are not enough medicinal materials in the mansion. Fourth Master Cheng has gone out to purchase medicinal materials! They are all common medicinal materials in Dianzhou, but the quantity needed is slightly larger!"

Chuan Wu not only told Cheng Si’s whereabouts, but also reassured Ming Jia.

Mingjia looked around the yard, counted the guards in the yard, and turned back to Shuang'er.

"Ask Mrs. Shui for the key to the warehouse and bring out a few more quilts from the warehouse!"

Shuang'er was a little worried about leaving Master Mingjia here alone. She looked at Chuanwu in the yard and then at Mingjia.

Chuan Wu was the first to speak: "Sister Shuang'er, go ahead! I will keep an eye on Master Mingjia."

After Shuang'er left, Chuan Wu smiled and said to Ming Jia: "Ming Jia, Mr. Ye is giving acupuncture to Master Shen Qi. Don't disturb me now!"

Ming Jia has been looking at the injuries on these guards. There seem to be injuries from fighting, and some are frostbite?

Chuanwu treated the trauma very quickly, and soon the guards in the yard had to bandage it.

Shuang'er also brought a lot of quilts and changes of clothes.

"Master, there are some new clothes in the warehouse that were originally planned to be distributed to the boys for the New Year in a few days. Granny Shui also asked me to take them too!"

Ming Jia nodded, Mrs. Shui was thoughtful.

Cheng Si quickly led people to buy enough medicinal materials and sent them back to the government office in batches. Chuanwu set up a large stove directly in the yard and started boiling medicine in the large pot.

Mingjia has been standing in the corridor, which is some distance away from the courtyard. Chuanwu and Shuang'er have persuaded Mingjia several times to go back to the study and wait for news.

"I'll go back after Mr. Ye finishes acupuncture for Uncle Shen Qi!"

Mingjia was a social animal in her previous life. She had no psychological burden at all when she paid to hire people, and she adapted well to buying people.

But the guards or servants were injured or had other incidents on their errands, which made it difficult for Mingjia to accept psychologically.

Ming Jia now wants to know what happened that allowed Shen Qi and the others to arrive in Dianzhou at this time.

"Master Mingjia, please go to the study!"

While Mingjia was making various speculations in her mind, she suddenly heard Mrs. Yan's voice.

"Grandma Yan, what did my father say?"

Ming Jia has completely forgotten that today is her birthday. Her thoughts are now on Mr. Ye.

"Master, Yang Zhizhou is here to visit and wants to personally give you a birthday gift!"

"it is good!"

Mingjia knew that Yang Tingxuan wanted to test the Xiao family. Mingjia restrained all her emotions and forced a smile out of her gloomy face.

Mingjia told Chuanwu that Mr. Ye would send someone to talk to her after he finished his work, and then took Shuang'er and turned around to Xiao Qingshan's study.

"Mingjia! Come! Meet your Uncle Yang quickly!"

As soon as Mingjia arrived at the door of the study, Xiao Qingshan called for Mingjia to come over quickly.

"My nephew Xiao Mingjia has met Uncle Yang!"

Ming Jia's etiquette is very confusing now, it all depends on her dress that day, which happens to be a scholar's gown today.

"My dear nephew, get up quickly. You have been in Dianzhou for many days! I should have given you a meeting gift a long time ago, but I am really busy with official duties!"

"Today is my nephew's birthday, so I'm here to send you a congratulatory gift. I hope my nephew will study well and succeed in the imperial examination like your father!"

Xiao Qingshan...

Mingjia...

"Thank you Uncle Yang for the gift!"

Mingjia just retracted her salute and was a little dazed when she straightened her body, but soon regained her expression of surprise.

Yang Tingxuan has been looking at Mingjia. The ten-year-old boy has not yet had a body shape, and he still looks childish.

"I don't know what Xiao Qingshan's eldest son looks like?"

Mingjia didn't want Yang Tingxuan to have any more temptations or suspicions about her father, so she thought it would be better to put everything on herself.

Mingjia felt Yang Tingxuan's appraising gaze, and Mingjia did not hesitate to raise her eyes and meet Yang Tingxuan's gaze with a smile.

"Uncle Yang, my father loves me very much. Ever since I came to Dianzhou, my father has sent my fourth uncle to my side to protect me."

Ming Jia suddenly spoke, and her words were very abrupt, which made Yang Tingxuan a little confused.

But Xiao Qingshan immediately understood what Ming Jia wanted to say, and Xiao Qingshan quickly spoke up to stop Ming Jia.

"Mingjia!"

"Mingjia, go back after you get the gift!"

When Xiao Qingshan called Mingjia for the first time, his tone was so urgent that Yang Tingxuan couldn't help but glance sideways at Xiao Qingshan.

Mingjia turned to look at her father. She needed to rely on the power of her master and Li Hansheng for this matter. It was more appropriate for her to come forward than for her father to do so.

"Dad, my master has written a letter to tell me, let me handle this matter together!"
