There was something in Bai Feng's words, and his sarcastic attitude was very unpredictable, but he still readily agreed to He Ba Hongyi's stay, which temporarily relieved the suspicions of all parties.
Not long after, Zhao Xiaomei, Zichai and Heba left the school grounds and went to another place to find a place for their new companions to stay. He Bahongyi burst into tears with gratitude, shed tears several times, and thanked him repeatedly.
Zichai thought that this person was being pretentious and very uncomfortable, so she talked to her younger sister after staying away from He Ba Hongyi, and asked: "Miss, is this person's behavior too weird? I heard that he wanted to capture Sister Murong a few days ago. , Young Master Bai and the others went to receive the reward, but after only a few days, they were completely surrendered by Senior Brother Bai?"
"I don't quite understand what our Senior Brother Bai is planning?" Zhao Xiaomei looked slightly confused and continued: "It's just that as a guest, I don't have the right to interfere with too many matters. As for how to make a decision, it still needs to be done according to the master's instructions. That means. Perhaps Mr. Bai wants to know more about the Six Towns Alliance Army from He Ba Hongyi, right?"
As soon as Zhao Xiaomei returned, Zichai suddenly rushed to block her, and warned her worriedly: "Miss, don't blame Zichai for being careless. He Ba Hongyi's expression is strange, he must have something in his heart. Miss, you must be careful! "
Zhao Xiaomei said: "Okay! Don't worry, I will pay more attention. Well, now, let's go back and finish writing the letter."
"Yes, miss." After the two of them had a heart-to-heart conversation, they both had new plans for their future lives.
They returned to the room together. The younger sister first imitated her father Zhao Wei's tone and wrote down a few letters, and then asked Zichai to send someone to deliver them one by one according to the list Bai Feng dictated last night.
Zhao Xiaomei knew that she would never be able to get a sum of money from a group of scheming businessmen to build the Six Disease Center based on her own fame and reputation, so she had to use Zhao Wei's name to suppress the businessmen from all parties. The mood.
After finishing writing the letter, most of the day was gone. The little girl was so tired that she lay down on the low table and fell asleep. She didn't even know that the fire in the charcoal stove was extinguished. It was not until midnight that her hands and feet were stiff and sore from the cold. Damn, I only remembered this when I couldn't move.
"Zichai, Zichai! Come here quickly, my legs are numb."
Zichai lives nearby, separated only by a wall, and the younger sister intends to be honest with her. Therefore, Zichai knows how hard and tired Zhao is, so that even if she is not a close friend who grew up together, she You can also easily know what the little girl is thinking.
"Miss, are you okay?" Zi Chai skillfully changed the fuel for the stove, then rubbed the palms of her hands violently, and then placed them on the other person's numb and stiff limbs to massage.
"Zichai, before you fall asleep next time, remember to help me check if the stove is out. My mind is in a mess these days..." Zhao Xiaomei frowned in pain, then stood up with difficulty and walked back to the bed. He murmured: "If the six town coalition forces really attack, can we hold on?"
"Miss, don't think too much, pay attention to your health." Zi Chai sat with her little sister and listened quietly.
"Thanks to Mr. Bai, not only did I avoid getting married, but I also successfully persuaded Woye Town to withdraw from the coalition. The current six-town coalition is no longer as invincible as it used to be." Zhao Xiaomei gently put her hand on Zi Chai's arm, and said Said: "This time, Mr. Bai took the risk to take in people who came from the enemy camp... If Yuyi Town can survive the difficulties again this time, I, the people of Yuyi, and the Zhao family, I really don't know how to thank you."
Zi Chai smiled brightly and said: "Miss, why don't you express your feelings to Mr. Bai earlier, so as not to complain and sound miserable every night in the future."
"Humph, I won't tell you anymore! You tease me about this every time. If telling me would solve the problem, I would have told you long ago."
Before she finished speaking, the little girl turned over and got into bed, no longer paying attention to anyone else.
When the time came the next morning, Zhao Xiaomei got up early to wash up as planned, and asked Zi Chai to comb her hair and put on bloated clothes. She is obviously just a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, but she has to dress up mature and majestic, which is naturally very difficult.
Apply lead powder to concealer on the forehead and cheeks, tie a beautiful belt around the waist, and add silver hairpins to the bun, which is so beautiful.
However, your conversation and temperament cannot be changed by makeup.
After the two of them were ready, Zichai went out to check the carriages and horses. After confirming that everything was correct, he came back and took Zhao Xiaomei away from the residence together. Little did he know that He Ba Hongyi suddenly emerged from the flower garden beside the road as if he was specially waiting for his little sister.
He said: "Miss Zhao, you are so beautiful today! But where are you going to be a guest?"
"Say something quickly." The little girl tilted her head impatiently, deliberately not looking at the other party.
Heba said: "Senior Brother Bai said that I should follow Miss Zhao to serve you, and I dare not disobey."
"You, don't you see that our young lady doesn't like you?" Zi Chai protected her little sister behind her, not daring to let He Ba Hongyi take another step forward.
The younger sister continued: "Master Heba, go and inform Senior Brother Bai. If he allows you to accompany him, I have nothing to say."
"Okay!" Before Heba could finish his words, he trotted towards the school ground.
After watching the other party go away, the younger sister snickered, and quickly said to Zichai: "Let's leave him alone!"
Only then did Zichai understand. She said "Yes" with a smile, and hurried to the gate of the academy with her little sister.
However, He Ba Hongyi was waiting in front of the academy early like a prophet, and there were two more guards around him who came specially to protect Zhao Xiaomei when she went out for a visit.
"Miss Zhao, you're finally here! Although Senior Brother Bai agreed to accompany me all the way, he still secretly scolded me because I didn't tell him about it earlier." He Ba Hongyi bowed his hands and bowed. Politely said: "'If Miss Zhao is robbed on the way, we will not be able to get away with it.' This is how Senior Brother Bai reprimanded me."
The guard standing on the left side of the gate looked at Heba with disdain and responded, "Why does Senior Brother Bai want me to be this guard...with this person?"
"Junior Sister Yue, you should feel happy!" The swordsman standing on the right side of the gate replied: "Senior Brother Bai must think that you are the most powerful martial arts among all the disciples, so he sent you to protect Miss Zhao Zhouquan."
Yue Qingling's eyes widened and he thought for a long time, then his expression changed in a blink of an eye, he smiled and said: "Huh? That's right... Brother Jingji, you always say nice things to me to please me, but you treat me unfairly. think?"
After hearing this, Jiajiang immediately blushed and raised his hands in a respectful manner: "No, absolutely not!"
He Ba Hongyi always felt that Yue Qingling was deliberately mocking him, so he could only avoid talking about it with a dark face.
Zhao Xiaomei was upset by these words. She couldn't help but waved her hands to everyone and shouted: "Okay, okay, stop bickering. There are still more than a dozen people to visit today!"
After the little sister finished speaking, she walked out without looking back and rode in the carriage with Zichai. The three people who followed behind him could only follow on foot due to polite etiquette.
One family, two families... To Zhao Xiaomei's surprise, the first few families readily agreed to build the Six Disease Center. They had not even talked about how much gift money they would need to donate and whether there would be corresponding funds. In return, he agreed with a smile.
Afterwards, the little sister learned from others that most of the merchants in Yuyi Town had had connections or quarrels with Money Rat, and they had all been robbed and extorted of gold and silver goods.
However, Bai Feng, the master of Yuyi Academy, defeated Qian Shu and caused Qian Shu to suddenly disappear for a period of time. Everything is very clear, and naturally more and more people are willing to submit to Yuyi Academy.
A carriage and three attendants. They encountered basically no resistance and everything fell into place. Just before noon, when the little girl planned to walk to a certain tavern to rest, she happened to meet Ajuan, who was carrying a medicine basket and going out to buy herbs, standing alone on the street, as if waiting for that person to arrive.
"Sister Ajuan, why did you come out alone? Where is Sister Murong?" Zhao Xiaomei opened the curtain and got off the carriage, walked towards Ajuan, and asked: "Are you the only one who came out to buy herbs? Sister Ajuan, have you learned to settle accounts?"
"Nujia... Nujia has not learned how to study, what do you do?" Ajuan held the medicine basket on his back with both hands and deliberately bumped it up and down, as if there were really herbs in it: "There are almost no herbs in the medical clinic. You have to come out and buy some. Anyway, go away quickly, you have nothing to do here. The slave family alone is enough!"
The little girl said: "Okay, it's up to you." However, when she got on the carriage and turned a corner, she quickly asked the coachman to stop the carriage, and walked back to the street, relying on the crowds of people and vendors in front of her. He took cover and secretly observed the Miao girl in the distance.
"Miss, you stopped suddenly again. Do you want to buy something delicious to fill your stomach?" Zi Chai looked at the barbecue stall not far away, her mouth watering.
"Shh!" the little girl called softly: "Sister Ajuan must be acting weird today!"
After hearing this, the other four people all looked intently at the Miao girl in the distance. They saw her charming face, her face full of peach blossoms, her eyes constantly looking around, just like the gentle gurgling spring water of a river.
She stood on the street corner, wearing the Hanfu customized by Zhao Kuo. She didn't want her clothes to get bumped in the slightest, so she kept standing under the leeward eaves to avoid the wind and sand and the flow of people.
Seeing this, He Ba Hongyi suddenly said: "Is this Ajuan girl waiting for her lover to arrive?"
Halfway through the conversation, a noble gentleman passed by Ajuan. At first, the young man pretended not to see the other party and just stood in front of Ajuan, shaking his head. In the end, it was Ajuan who took the initiative to come up and pat the young man on the back of the head, and they were able to recognize each other in the huge crowd.
"It's brother!" The little sister suddenly said: "Unexpectedly, the friendship between them has reached the level of a secret meeting? And I, Xiaomei Zhao, don't know anything!"
The younger sister only felt more and more angry as she thought about it. He didn't expect that Zhao Kuo would secretly devote his few free time to this young girl, but instead turned a blind eye to her, the sister he had been friends with for more than ten years, and hid everything from her.
"It turns out that this is Zhao Kuo, the eldest son of the Zhao family. He is indeed a tall and elegant young man as the rumors said!" He Ba Hongyi sighed with emotion at the side, but he did not expect that the younger sister was getting discouraged and suffered for no reason. She cursed.
"Have you seen enough? Let's go!"
After saying this, the little sister directly ordered the coachman to change the route and decided not to go to the tavern to eat and rest.
Everyone was forced to have no choice but to endure their hunger and accompany Zhao Xiaomei on their journey to various parts of Yuyi again.
