Chapter 357 Good things are coming
As the sun rose in the east, Xie Zhaozhao stood in the morning light and watched Yun Qi's group go away. After a while, he took a breath and turned back to the city.

Qiyang Villa was taken over by officials from the Imperial Court's Criminal Department, and Xie Zhaozhao also returned to the posthouse in Qizhou City to settle down.

Officials in Qizhou's officialdom were interrogated by Lu Hanqiu himself. Xie Zhaozhao now only needs to wait for Lu Hanqiu's interrogation to produce clues before making a decision.

This allowed Xie Zhaozhao to rest for two or three days.

Xie Zhaozhao breathed a sigh of relief and rode slowly towards the post house. As soon as he got off his horse in front of the post house, he heard Mr. Miao pleading from inside: "Qiu Shui, dad was wrong, please give dad another chance. I really know I was wrong!”

"This time I will never leave your side again. Daddy will do whatever you ask him to do, without any hesitation!"

Xie Zhaozhao silently got off his horse and stopped at the door of the post house.

I saw Mr. Miao standing in the courtyard with his back hunched, and he almost knelt down on the spot.

And the girl named Qiu Shui stood on the steps with a frosty face, pointing a long sword at Mr. Miao and sneered: "Absolutely nothing? Then get out of here, I don't want to see you again, get out of here -"

Mr. Miao stiffened.

Qiu Shui had already entered the room and slammed the door.

Xie Zhaozhao frowned, lifted up his skirt and entered the post house, "Sir, Miss Qiushui seems to be angry. Why don't you leave for a few days to wait for her to calm down or think of other ways to see her again. "

"She won't forgive me, it's impossible..." Mr. Miao smiled sadly: "This girl is as determined as her mother. Once she decides something, she will never look back, never look back!"

Xie Zhaozhao sighed secretly.

She knew something about Mr. Miao and his wife and daughter.

Mr. Miao was very obsessed with medicine. After getting married, he didn't pay much attention to his wife and daughter. Later, he went to the Western Regions to find strange prescriptions and left for several years without leaving a word.

Mr. Miao's wife and daughter are struggling to survive.

Because he did not have a husband at home, he was often bullied by the people in the town. Later, he fell ill and did not recover, so he died of illness.

Qiu Shui has no father by his side. He lost his mother in childhood and has seen the warmth and coldness of the world. Therefore, he hates Mr. Miao. He believes that everything is caused by Mr. Miao and refuses to recognize him as his father.

Xie Zhaozhao's understanding of their father and daughter was limited to this.

What I didn't expect now is that Qiu Shui and Fourth Brother have a subtle relationship, which is unexpected.

Mr. Miao stared blankly at the closed door for a while, and then sat down at the stone table outside. He was as sluggish as a piece of wood, unable to move and helpless.

Xie Zhaozhao sighed again and took Hongxiu to the back to see Xie Changheng.

Xie Changheng was injured in his early years and his legs were unable to walk, so he gave up martial arts to practice medicine. He and Xie Zhaozhao were the same master. They were both biological brothers and sisters.

Later, Xie Zhaozhao and his brothers and sisters moved to various places with the army. Xie Changheng did not follow him due to his health and medical practice. After that, he traveled around and sent letters home every once in a while.

Speaking of which, the brother and sister have not seen each other for more than three years.

This meeting was still the same, and we couldn't talk properly, so we were free today.

When Xie Zhaozhao entered, Xie Changheng was flipping through a medical book at the table. When he heard the footsteps, he looked up at Xie Zhaozhao and said with a smile, "Are you done?"

"It's over for now."

Xie Zhaozhao walked over and pinched Xie Changheng's wrist pulse: "That cartilage powder... Mr. Lu prepared the antidote for you and Mr. Miao. How do you feel now?"

"Mr. Lu's medical skills are superb. He is better than me. The medicine he prepares is very good. His physical strength and skills are already recovering."

"That's good……"

Xie Zhaozhao breathed a sigh of relief when footsteps sounded outside the door. She turned around and saw Qiu Shui coming in with a tray.Qiu Shui wore an aqua blue dress. Her black hair was combed into two thick braids hanging in front of her body. There were aqua blue silk ribbons in the braids. She wore sapphire earrings and a small necklace of the same color hanging around her waist. The purse looks fresh and beautiful.

Seeing that Xie Zhaozhao was there, Qiu Shui paused, called "Miss Qi", then put the tray on the table, "It's time for you to take medicine."

Naturally, he said this to Xie Changheng.

Xie Changheng nodded, took the medicine bowl and drank it all in one gulp, Qiu Shui handed over two more candied fruits.

Xie Zhaozhao raised his eyebrows.

Xie Changheng took the candied fruit into his mouth.

Qiu Shui went to the basin to wash the handkerchief and handed it to Xie Changheng. After Xie Changheng wiped his hands and lips, Qiu Shui put the handkerchief away, glanced at Xie Zhaozhao quickly, and left with the basin and tray.

Xie Zhaozhao looked at Xie Changheng with a smile and said with enlightenment: "Fourth brother, good things are about to happen for you."

"..."

Xie Changheng was silent and sighed: "She is a good girl, but it is a pity that I am not good at it..."

Xie Zhaozhao frowned: "Fourth brother can't say that. She knows that you are not good at what you do, but she still stays by your side and never abandons you, which is enough to show her friendship for you. You have been trapped in Qiyang Villa for many days, and she has been around the Villa. Panhuan inquires about your news."

"She thought you were made into that kind of armored man. When she heard that one was captured at the inn, she came to check on you late at night and cried bitterly when she talked about your disappearance."

"She has a close relationship with you. If you wanted to reject her, you should have done so earlier. You shouldn't have said this now."

Xie Changheng fell into silence, and after a moment he sighed: "What you said is indeed good, I will consider it carefully."

When Xie Zhaozhao went out, Qiu Shui was sitting on the edge of the railing at the corner of the verandah outside the yard, looking at the green trees in the yard in a daze.

"Seven girls."

When she heard the footsteps, she stood up and greeted Xie Zhaozhao, "Did he rest?"

"No." Xie Zhaozhao said warmly: "My hidden weapon hurt you -"

"It's all grown up." Qiu Shui's hand fell on his shoulder, "After scarring, it will be fine once the scar falls off."

"That's good, my fourth brother -" Xie Zhaozhao thought about it and said, "He is a person with a cold face and a warm heart..."

But suddenly he thought of Xie Changheng's frown when he mentioned Qiu Shui, and Xie Zhaozhao suddenly felt that he didn't need to say anything more.

She smiled slightly and said, "Fourth brother, I need a girl to take care of you. I want to go out."

"……it is good."

After Qiu Shui watched her leave, she pursed her lips for a long time, then turned and entered the yard.

As soon as she entered, she saw Xie Changheng sitting at the window, looking down at something.

Qiu Shui bit her lower lip slightly and walked in. She took the tea from the round table in the room and put it on the coffee table by the window. She pretended to be indifferent and said: "I will give you a chance now. If you apologize, I will treat what happened that day as if it never happened." .”

Xie Changheng opened his mouth with hesitation on his face: "You... you should know that I have been like this my whole life. I am just a useless person. I will only drag my partner down. Why do you waste your time on me."

"you--"

Qiu Shui suddenly looked at him, her face livid with anger, and her eyes quickly filled with tears.

Xie Changheng froze slightly, feeling uncomfortable for no reason, and subconsciously said: "Don't cry... I'm sorry!"
