Rural Female Detective - Chapter 83

It was ten in the evening, and in the backyard of the Marquis’ Mansion, there was a quiet little courtyard that was lit up by a light as if it was made of beans. Noises would come from time to time.

“I already said that it’s not playing Go, it’s five Go.”

“Then you have to win to make me go easy on you.”

Song Yao was still unmoved when she heard it, but when it came to Song Yao, he was completely victorious.

“Oh, again.” Gongsun Xiao didn’t mind at all.

Song Yao said angrily: “Are you sure you can still be fun?!”

“Sure.” Gongsun Xiao remained calm.

Song Yao rolled his eyes and said: “If you’re not serious about this round, I won’t play anymore. There’s no meaning.”

“Aren’t you happy that you won?” Gongsun Xiao was puzzled.

“Victory is not a martial art, it would be shameful if word of it were to spread. You don’t want to play with me at all, right?” Song Yao complained.

Gongsun Xiao did not make a sound, and extended his hand out to touch the ground.

After ten rounds, Song Yao wins one lose, nine losses.

After twenty rounds, Song Yao was victorious by one, losing by nineteen.

After the thirty rounds, Song Yao was angry and stopped playing.

“Aiyaya, you are truly hard to serve. That will make you win. If you are unhappy, that will make you lose. If you are not happy, what should I do?”

Song Yao gave him a middle finger and said: “It’s fine if you’re an expert, but I’ve been unrestrained at Go for so many years and have been beaten black and blue by a novice like you. You really have no place for shame.”

“Oh? How do you know I’m new? ”

“You didn’t let me in the first round at all, right? Are you trying to look at the rules and figure out a way to do it? Is this your first time playing it? ”

Gongsun Xiao: “Err …”

“I didn’t react at first. After that, you became braver as you fought, and you weren’t someone who admitted defeat so how could you let me win the first match, right? ”

“Haha.” Gongsun Xiao laughed, “You can tell that. Indeed, I have never played chess with the crown prince before, and never played this kid’s game.”

“Okay.” Song Yao sighed, “I admit defeat.”

“It’s that easy?” Gongsun Xiao was a little surprised.

“It’s just admitting defeat, how can it be so difficult? Admitting that you’re stronger than me is not denying that I have no good points. It’s just that you’re stronger than me in certain aspects.” It’s like you’re competing with me. You can’t beat me, can you? ”

Gongsun Xiao burst out in laughter: “Who would compete in this?”

“Then what can I compare to?” Song Yao collapsed onto the chair, “I have nothing good to talk about, if I don’t eat, what can I be compared to sleeping?”

“Ouch, being too modest is shameful. How can a person who can make His Highness’ heart fall for him be an ordinary person?”

“Hah.” Song Yao chuckled.

“What are you laughing at?” Gongsun Xiao asked. Under the flickering light of the candle, his face swayed unsteadily under the light of the lamp.

“Are you jealous?” Song Yao laughed, “Are you unhappy that I stole your crown prince’s gaze away?”

Gongsun Xiao was startled, and said helplessly: “What are you thinking? Is there anything I can compare with you? ”

“Oh …” Song Yao rubbed her stomach that was a little hungry, thinking about sweet and sour carp: “You can’t compare, you can’t compare. You’re the Golden Phoenix in the sky, and I’m a young chicken in the fields, why should I compare?”

“…” Gongsun Xiao said angrily, “Then what were you blabbering about just now?”

“Oh …” Song Yao said indifferently, “Maybe it’s because I’m hungry. I have a problem with that, if I’m hungry, I’ll babble nonsense.”

Gongsun Xiao stood up and said angrily: “You are simply … It can anger a person to death! ”

Song Yao burst into laughter when he saw Yue Yang’s reaction, laughing as if he was an idiot.

But when Gongsun Xiao brought her food, Song Yao had already fallen asleep.

At that time, Gongsun Xiao wanted to use the sweet and sour fish on Song Yao’s face, but after thinking about it again, he decided not to.

Song Yao was woken up by the smell of the food, the moment she opened her eyes, she had already placed food on the table. She had been hungry for the whole day, so she didn’t even have time to wash before throwing herself in front of the table.

Just as she was about to grab the steamed bun, something flew in from the window and hit the back of her hand. It hurt.

Gongsun Xiao walked in from the door: “So you don’t like clean people?”

“Are you staring at me?” Song Yao asked doubtfully.

Gongsun Xiao laughed twice, then said: “I’m lucky, I can always predict when you will wake up.”

“Tsk …”

Song Yao turned around and washed her face and rinsed her mouth.

After she finished eating, just as Gongsun Xiao was about to say something, someone suddenly said from outside: “Elder, Master Li requests an audience.”

“Oh?” Gongsun Xiao said in realization, “You’re here so early?”

Song Yao glanced at him with some suspicion, then said to the door: “Invite him to wait for a while, tell him that I am currently eating, and that he is invited to sit first.”

The person outside replied and left. Song Yao said: Who is it? Master Li? Could it be Young Master Li’s father? ”

“Tsk …” Gongsun Xiao drank his tea, “Do you know everything?”

Song Yao smirked: “No way, is there anything else I don’t know?”

Gongsun Xiao sneered, “What do you plan to do? To this Young Master Li. ”

Song Yao was startled when she heard that, and asked: “What are you saying? What else can I do to people? Wasn’t this famous in the capital? How could I have that capability? ”

After she finished speaking, she drank all the soup in one gulp, then wiped her mouth and said, “I’m so full. Can I discuss it with you? Can I come to your place every month to get a meal in the future? ”

“No problem, but what do you want to trade for it?” Gongsun Xiao asked.

Song Yao thought for a long time before saying, “What do you want?” Without waiting for Gongsun Xiao to say anything, she anxiously said: “It must be something I can do, and not something that goes against morals.”

“Tsk …” Gongsun Xiao sighed: “This request of yours is too overbearing, I have decided not to agree to it, eating food is very expensive after all.”

Song Yao let out a long sigh: “The Zhu Family stinks of wine and meat, and frozen to death on the road … “Sigh …”

Gongsun Xiao stood up and said: “Don’t speak nonsense and recite those poems that you cannot understand. Get up and come with me to meet that Li.”

Song Yao said impatiently: “Can’t you just send him away, I have to go home, if not my mother would be worried.”

“That won’t do. You take care of your own matters.” Gongsun Xiao grabbed her and pulled her towards the door.

After passing through a few doors, a few courtyards, and a few corridors above a pond, Song Yao finally arrived at the front hall.

Once he entered, he heard a “Aiyah” sound. Song Yao trembled in fear, and then he heard the man surnamed Li say, “Aiyah, Master Hou, long time no see.”
