"Go, wash up and put on some clothes."
"Move quickly, don't waste time, and get scolded by the supervisor."
The speaker was a middle-aged man, strong and powerful, with a sword hanging on his waist and coarse linen clothes on his body. He threw You Ziji's change of clothes aside. He looked like he was a nursing home in the house. He should be pretty good at it. He was at least a senior man. of practitioners. After the man finished explaining his duties, he left the house.
This middle-aged man must have been begging for food here, so he hid his cultivation. Otherwise, why would he be just a nurse? You Ziji thought so and didn't think much about it. He looked around carefully. There were neatly arranged wooden blocks and branches everywhere. This should be a woodshed. There are wooden barrels and ladles placed in the room. The barrels contain fresh water from the well. It is refreshing and refreshing. It is suitable for washing away the dirt on the body and cooling down the heat. After changing his clothes, he is still a cute and handsome young man.
The old housekeeper came to the big man, signaled that he was ready, and asked: "Lieutenant Hong, how are you? Has he finished cleaning up?"
Lieutenant Hong patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, I have already told that boy. The work should be almost over by now."
The old housekeeper maintained his usual rigorous style, "He doesn't have good ears, how did you tell him?"
"What! Is he deaf? Then he didn't hear a word I said." Lieutenant Hong was stunned. "Didn't this delay Miss Zhou's arrangements? It's all my fault. I'm going to tell that guy now." He said that he was about to rush into the woodshed. He had a fiery character, which gave the old housekeeper the most headache. He wanted to stop him but was already there. That's too late.
"Lieutenant Hong, don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, that's all..."
squeak.
The door of the firewood shed was pulled open by Lieutenant Hong. You Ziji looked up in confusion and saw the big man rushing through the door with a relieved expression after entering. After thinking for a while, You Ziji looked at the big man with helpless eyes. In the situation just now, everyone knew that they had to wash and change clothes. He was not a fool. This big man was really a little irritable.
On the other side, when the old housekeeper saw Youzi Jisheng's handsomeness, he felt a chill for no reason. Although there was no evidence, he felt that he was in trouble again.
At this time, I can no longer care about so much, everyone I can trust is here. The three of them walked through the courtyard and came to the prepared carriage. Miss Zhou had already boarded the carriage.
When he first entered the city, You Ziji had already met Miss Zhou, but this time there was something different. You Ziji seemed to smell a strong smell of herbs.
Sure enough, the housekeeper asked: "Miss, are you in good health? It's not too late to go tomorrow if you really can't."
Miss Zhou's voice seemed to be getting weaker, "How is that possible? My father is alone and helpless. If he doesn't fulfill his agreement, I'm afraid there will be no helper. As a parent of his children, this injury is nothing."
…
You Ziji and his party left the mansion, walked through a busy market, and came to a mansion that was even more luxurious than Zhou's mansion.
The word "Zhang's Mansion" is written on the plaque, but it is the general's mansion in Zijun City. The generals and soldiers who control the entire city are the number one figure in the military that the county guard has always wanted to win over. However, Zhang's family was a local wealthy family and was naturally resistant to the appointment of foreign officials. Therefore, the county magistrate came over many times, but there were only drinks and banquets, and no progress was made in getting down to business. Later, the county magistrate couldn't lose face, so he had to ask his daughter to take action, hoping to connect the two families through the line of female relatives.
During this trip, apart from You Ziji, only Lieutenant Hong and a maid accompanied him. When they arrived at the place, the carriage had to be placed at the back door and people entered through the back door. This was the treatment given to the rich daughter of the county governor's family, which shows the predicament of the county governor.
The two of them followed Miss Zhou into Zhang's Mansion, while You Ziji was waiting outside the mansion alone. Seeing that no one nearby paid attention to him, he turned around and came to a small alley, and took out the bamboo tube in his arms. Leave the letter.
This bamboo tube was the real purpose of this trip. According to the instructions of Butler Zhou, You Ziji placed the bamboo tube in the crack of the wall of the house opposite Zhang's house. The mansion occupies a small area, and although it looks like a wealthy family, it is incomparable to the Zhang Mansion.
When stuffing things, You Ziji found that there was another bamboo tube there, so he took it out and put it in his arms. When he returned to the carriage again, everything was normal. No one noticed where he had just been. Now he only needed to wait for others to return home.
Miss Zhou didn't know when she came out. You Ziji was quick-thinking and took the reward given when he signed the contract with the housekeeper and came to the front door of the house.
For some reason, the door was open, and you could see the peach trees planted inside, as well as a quite spacious open space in the center with stone-locked sandbags placed there. There was nothing else in the small yard.
You Ziji came to the vendor who set up a street stall opposite, chatted for a while, bought some snacks, and finally got a rough idea of the people opposite.
This family also has the surname Zhou, and now the owner of the family is named Zhou, which is the same family as the county governor. His ancestor was just a commoner in Zijun City. His father joined the army in order to earn money for food. He had made great achievements and got a moderate official position. The military commander saw that he was loyal and skilled in martial arts, so in order to win over him, he gave him a house, which is the place in front of him.
It's a pity that the officer gave you the benefit just to make you work like a dog for him, but old Zhou didn't understand the situation clearly and spent a lot of money to let Zhou Wei become famous in literature and martial arts, hoping to achieve a great career in the future. Zhou Weiming did not disappoint the old man. He was already a school captain at a young age, but because he always tried to steal the limelight from the Zhou family, he was only one level lower than Zhonglang General, the highest title among Zijun City military commanders, and had no real power at all.
Life has become increasingly difficult in recent years, and I don't know when I will be able to get through it. Now I am even threatened by others, and I don't even dare to close the door of my house, for fear that someone will commit murder in broad daylight.
…
As evening approached, You Ziji and his group returned along the same path. Halfway down the road, they saw two young men standing side by side. One was dressed as a Taoist priest and he was carrying a sword that was almost as tall as his body. The other has gorgeous clothes and elegant temperament, but his young face has gray hair. He is out of tune with the surrounding environment and looks very torn.
When You Ziji saw the two of them, his hair immediately stood up. He felt that their strength was unfathomable. He didn't feel this way even when he faced off against the Bao Ce Demon King.
Lieutenant Hong also noticed something strange. He seemed to know the man in gorgeous clothes. He obviously wanted to bow down, but was stopped by the white-haired young man with a wave of his hand. He watched You Ziji and the others leave.
"Pure jade is pure gold, Huai Jin holds the jade." The Taoist priest whispered softly.
The white-haired man said: "Puyu? You mean the one in the carriage? She is the daughter of the new Governor Zhou, and she is indeed very qualified."
The Taoist priest nodded in agreement upon hearing this, "Miss Zhou is a talented person."
