Chapter 63: I Won't Bother You Anymore

  As soon as Xiao Jia Ding put down his things, Kang Xuan immediately launched another fierce attack. Although Xiao Jia Ding had learned a small part of the willow leaf step, it was more than enough to deal with a child like Kang Xuan. As a result, no matter how Kang Xuan attacked, he couldn't hit him.

  Finally, Kang Xuan stopped his attack and exclaimed with joy: "Your lightness skill is really good! Teach me! Hurry up and teach me!"

  Xiao Jiading crossed his arms and said lazily, "I can teach you, but your attitude isn't right. If you want to learn martial arts from others, at least show some respect."

  Kang Xuan suddenly understood and quickly clasped his fists together, bowing: "Sir, please teach Xuan'er this qinggong, is it good?"

  Xiao Jiading nodded: "This is almost okay. However, it's almost time to eat, let's talk about it later when we have time."

  "Mother hasn't even cooked dinner yet! It'll be a while, teach me first, sir!" Kang Xuan pulled on Xiao Jia Ding's sleeve and pouted.

  The county magistrate was very fond of this child and couldn't bear to disappoint him, so he said: "At most one o'clock! Your mother's dishes are cooked quickly!"

  "Alright! Alright! Sir, teach me quickly!"

  Mrs. Kang smiled and turned to prepare the dishes. Xiao Jiateng began teaching Kang Xuan in the courtyard, this set of light footwork was very complicated, but Kang Xuan was born with a talent for learning martial arts, and his memory was good, so after Xiao Jiateng taught him only three times, he had already memorized everything. Of course, what Xiao Jiateng taught him was only that small section he himself had learned.

  Fortunately, the little servant soon came to say that the wine banquet was ready and they could enter. Kang Xuan still wanted to learn, but he had already said it would only take a moment, and he kept his promise, not bothering Xiao Jiading again to teach him, just saying that he would come tomorrow at noon to study with him. Xiao Jiading thought this time was too short, and he might not even have time to learn, so he said he had things to do tomorrow and put it off until the day after tomorrow.

  Mrs. Kang's craftsmanship is quite good, and the dishes she makes are very delicious.

  The county magistrate's capacity for wine far exceeded Xiao Jiading's imagination. Xiao Jiading had always thought that his own capacity for wine was not bad, but in front of the county magistrate, he realized that he had met a truly formidable opponent. The county magistrate was also very surprised by Xiao Jiading's capacity for wine. Two people with good capacities for wine drinking together is a very comfortable thing, so they drank cup after cup with great joy. In the blink of an eye, a large wine jug of Xuan Nan Shu Chun wine was emptied. Both of them were already 60-70% drunk.

  The county magistrate had not drunk so freely for a long time. The case of the Zhao family was now clear, and his own career path had turned from danger to safety, which made him extremely excited and filled with gratitude towards Xiao Jia Ding, despite being only his subordinate. So when he saw that the wine in the jug was almost gone, he asked his wife to bring more wine.

  Mrs. Kang smiled at her husband, who also knew why he was happy today. In fact, she was very happy too, so she didn't stop him and personally poured wine from the large wine jug.

  Taking advantage of her departure, Xiao Jia Ding said in a low voice to Kang County Magistrate: "I heard that the housekeeper's room is going to retire recently? Is it?"

  "Hmm!" County Magistrate Kang gazed at Xiao Jia Ding with a drunken gaze, and as an old hand in the official circles, he naturally knew that when Xiao Jia Ding brought up this topic, there must be another intention behind it. This intention was clear to him, so he let out a sigh and said: "Now that he's leaving, who will take charge of this workshop? I've been worried about this. Do you have any good recommendations? Tell me and let me consider."

  Xiao Jiading smiled and shook his head, saying: "What can I recommend? I've just arrived at the yamen and don't know many people. If I randomly recommend someone and they turn out to be the wrong person, wouldn't that be a mistake?"

  "No worries! You're young, but you've got a sharp mind. This case of the Zhao family is the best proof, so whoever you recommend will definitely be right!"

  "Hehe, thank you for the compliment from County Magistrate Kang. I don't dare to recommend anyone, but the recorder Huang Cuan in the yamen is quite good, mature and steady, giving me a deep impression. Of course, others are also very good."

  The county magistrate stroked his beard and nodded repeatedly, saying: "I also think that Huang Lu's affairs are indeed very good. Now that the Xiao brothers all say he's good, I'm even more convinced! Heh heh heh"

  Xiao Jiading knew that this matter was settled! The conversation had reached this point, and it was enough. Just then, Mrs. Kang came back with a large wine jug, and they continued drinking.

  After finishing the large wine jar, both of them were drunk. County Magistrate Kang vomited on the spot and was supported by Lady Kang to rest, while Lady Kang asked the maid to send Xiao Jiading back, who had a stomach that was churning like a stormy sea. He originally wanted to pretend to be a hero and walk back himself, but he stumbled and almost fell at the doorstep. Two maids rushed up to support him, and he could only let them.

  Two little maids, one on each side, supported him out of the inner house and stumbled back to his residence. One maid helped take out Xiao Jia Ding's key and opened the door. Just as they were about to send him in, he was pushed away by Xiao Jia Ding, saying: "I'm fine, I'm not drunk, you can go!" After speaking, he staggered into the room, closed the door behind him with his hand, but forgot to bolt it.

  Outside the door, two little maidservants went away laughing and chatting.

  Xiao Jiading fell onto the bed, without even taking off his shoes. However, he couldn't lie still and felt dizzy, as if his stomach was churning with a desire to vomit. Originally, he could have held on, but after going out earlier, the cool breeze blew, and the effects of the wine took hold, making him unable to bear it any longer. He quickly got up, dry-heaving, wanting to find a basin to throw up into. In the dark, he felt a fragrant and delicate body supporting him, with a soft voice saying: "The basin is by the bed."

  Has that maid not returned yet? Taking care of herself here? What a rare meticulousness! Xiang Jia Ding looked at her with drunken eyes, and indeed it was a woman. However, the lighting in the room was poor at night, and he was drunk, so he couldn't see clearly. He said thank you and bowed his head to look at the floor beside the bed, and indeed there was a wooden basin with half a basin of clear water. Then he started vomiting loudly.

  The woman gently patted his back, waited for him to finish vomiting, and helped him lie down. She took the wooden basin from beside the bed and placed it in the corner of the wall, came over to help him take off his boots, wanted to help him undress, and leaned forward to unbutton his buttons.

  Xiao Jia Ding vomited and then his whole head was dizzy, he couldn't tell east, south, west or north. He reached out to grab the quilt, hugged it in his arms, and fell into a deep sleep.

  …………

  The window was blurry, the sky had gradually brightened, Xiao Jia Ding was woken up by thirst, opened his eyes, and his head hurt so much that he quickly closed them again, involuntarily muttering to himself: "Damn it, my head hurts..."

  In an instant, he felt a soft and tender hand placed on his temples, gently massaging them.

  Xiao Jiading was startled, immediately opened his eyes, and found that there was a woman lying in his arms! She was using her hand to help him massage his forehead. As the dawn gradually brightened, he saw clearly that the woman in his arms was none other than the annoying Huang Shiyun!

  Xiao Jia Ding shouted, and with a push, he opened her. But the place where his hand touched was soft and elastic, and when he looked closely, his hand had actually landed on one of her plump and tender breasts!

  Xiao Jia Ding immediately withdrew his hand, astonished and said: "You! What are you doing? How did you get into my house?" As he spoke, he looked down at himself, still wearing his nightgown, then glanced at Huang Shi Yun, who was also fully dressed. Only then did he slightly calm down. He angrily continued: "How shameless can you be? Sneaking onto a man's bed in the middle of the night?"

  Huang Shi Yun's face turned red and white, she suddenly sat up, got out of bed, tidied her clothes, lowered her head and rushed to the door, pulled out the bolt, was about to open the door, but stopped again, sobbing: "Yes! I don't want my face, you scold well! You can rest assured, I...I won't bother you again!" After that, she suddenly opened the door and rushed out.

  Beyond comprehension!

  Xiao Jiading murmured to himself and remained lying in bed, closing his eyes. However, he could no longer continue sleeping, as his mind was filled with thoughts of what had just happened.

  How did she get in? Wasn't the woman who took care of herself last night a maid from the inner house, but her? That is to say, she didn't leave all night? Always waiting for yourself at the door? What was she waiting for you to do? Was it just to go to bed with you?

  That can't be right! If that's the case, then she wouldn't have known what happened last night when she got drunk, and whatever she wanted to do would have been no problem at all. So why were their clothes still neatly arranged?

  Just thinking of this, Xiao Jiading felt that he was too boring. The yellow flower girl, why would she take the initiative to come and sleep with you? This Huang Shiyun is indeed annoying, but it's just that the noble family looks down on the working people, and hasn't seen her being promiscuous. She is a lady from a good family and shouldn't be so open-minded.

  So, she was waiting outside her own door, not to accompany herself to bed, but to take care of herself. Because yesterday she already knew that she would go to the county magistrate's inner mansion to drink wine, worried that if she got drunk alone, there would be no one to take care of her, so she stayed behind to take care of herself? Last night was indeed also taking care of herself. This can be recalled.

  Then how did she end up in his arms?

  Xiao Jia Ding furrowed his brow in thought, and finally remembered that it seemed like he had pulled her into his arms when he was pulling the quilt, and at that time, after vomiting, his head was dizzy, thinking he was hugging the quilt, but unexpectedly, he was actually hugging her.

  So, in fact, it was herself who took the initiative to hug the girl, rather than the girl actively throwing herself into her arms!

  Xiao Jiading felt a bit remorseful after realizing this point. The other person had been kind enough to take care of him, yet he had spoken so harshly to her, his words were too hurtful.

  This time, I'm afraid it really hurt her heart.

  What's wrong with you!

  Xiao Jiading thought to himself, if she gets hurt, so be it. A woman as arrogant as her getting hurt wouldn't be a big deal, and it would also spare him from being bothered by her in the future.

  Although he thought so, the thing that had been stuck in Xiao Jia Ding's heart did not ease up because of this. He shook his head, feeling a bit chilly, glanced at the quilt on the bed which was still neatly stacked, and pulled it over to cover himself.

  He wanted to sleep a bit longer, but he couldn't fall asleep no matter what. He kept smelling a faint scent of a girl's body fragrance, which must have been left on him by Huang Shiyun that little girl. He had slept with her in his arms all night and got stained with this scent.

  This smell is now making him feel somewhat annoyed and restless, but he doesn't know why.
