Sensing the man's voyeuristic gaze on Wen Xiaoyun, Yinnuo immediately stretched out his arms to protect Wen Xiaoyun behind him. He didn't want the wounds on his back and arms to be torn open at once, causing the pain to make sweat drip from his head.
"Young master, you're too polite. It was originally our fault as a couple. We should compensate you for the master's horse."
Wen Xiaoyun saw that the clothes on Yinnuo's back and arms were scratched and blood was oozing from them. Only then did he realize that he was the one who tried his best to protect himself in the impact just now, and his eyes were somewhat moved.
Seeing Wen Xiaoyun and Yinnuo's embarrassed appearance, Jiang Di took a half step back and looked at Wen Xiaoyun with a concerned expression, "Fortunately, it didn't cause any serious disaster. It's just that you both have blood on your body. Check quickly to see if your muscles and bones are injured." ?”
Yinnuo waved his hand, "It's okay, it's just a small scratch.
"Jiang Di asked again, "I haven't asked these two famous figures yet, but I don't know where they came from and where they are going? "
Wen Xiaoyun felt wary.
He was obviously testing the background of himself and Yin Nuo.
"Young Master, you're welcome," Yinnuo took over without thinking, "My name is Huangfu, and my name is a hyphen. This is the Yin family in Zhuojing. I came from Yanzhou City and am going to Penglai to find my family."
The corners of Wen Xiaoyun's mouth twitched.
Yinnuo is really an exciting guy. He can give out fake names casually, and he also took apart his mother's name.
In this way, even if someone suddenly calls his pseudonym, he will respond immediately.
Jiang Di nodded politely, clasped his fists and saluted, "I see, but it's a pity that such an accident happened on the way. By the way, Jiang Di is the owner of this woodland, and my home is in front of me."
Both Wen Xiaoyun and Yin Nuo's eyes moved.
This man is indeed Jiang Di himself.
Jiang Di didn't notice the actions of Yin Nuo and Wen Xiaoyun. He looked up at the completely scrapped mule cart and said with regret, "Now the cart is also destroyed and you two are injured. I'm afraid we won't be able to continue our journey." .”
As he spoke, he pondered for a moment, then looked up at the surrounding woods, "The property nearby is owned by the Jiang family, and I couldn't find any other families for a while. After all, it was Jiang who bumped into the two of them, so why not follow Jiang back home for the time being?" , how about freshening up and resting for a while before heading out on the road tomorrow?"
Yin Nuo frowned unconsciously. When Wen Xiaoyun was changing clothes at Mao Er's house, he specifically asked Mao Er about the Jiang family's property.
Although Mao Er no longer steals things, he is still on the road and is often called out by people who buy stolen goods.
So the two of them came up with a plan to discuss some shady business with Jiang Di under the guise of being introduced by someone else. In this way, useful clues can be drawn out bit by bit.
However, fate is not as good as man. Not only was Wen Zhuyun spraying filth all over his face, but he even had a collision with Jiang Di himself.
Just when Yin Nuo hesitated, Wen Xiaoyun calmly squeezed his arm.
He reacted immediately, got into the mood as soon as he raised his eyes, turned to look at Wen Xiaoyun, and smoothed her messy bangs for her with distressed eyes, really pretending to be a newlywed husband.
"Madam, it's rare that Mr. Jiang is so kind. Besides, without the mule cart, we can't leave for a while. How about we stay overnight at Jiang's house and find a way to get on our way tomorrow?"
Wen Xiaoyun rolled her eyes in her heart.
He truly deserves to be the son of Aunt Huangfu. With his acting skills, he is definitely more than enough to win a golden supporting role.
As for why it is only a golden supporting role, there is only one reason, and that is the real king of acting, Wen Xiaoyun himself.
She lowered her head very cooperatively, raised her sleeves and half-covered her lips and replied coyly, "Every slave obeys your husband."
The corner of Yin Nuo's mouth twitched slightly, and he turned his head while resisting the coldness, and smiled at Jiang Di with his fists clasped, "Then there's Brother Lao Jiang."
He knew that Wen Zhuyun should be more disgusted than him at this moment. But they had no other choice. Pretending to be a couple and sneaking into Jiang Mansion was their only and best choice.
In this way, Yin Nuo supported Wen Xiaoyun, and under the guidance of Jiang Di and Tie Bo, walked towards the Jiang Family Courtyard not far ahead.
Wen Xiaoyun blinked and realized that the Jiang Family Courtyard was just around the corner in front. The long gray courtyard wall, the vermilion-lacquered gate, and the gatehouse with carved beams and cornices are not as luxurious as Ning Mansion or Du's Bank, but they are still very grand.
Jiang Di walked in front, while Uncle Tie walked to the door, half-pushed the red door open, and led the way for Yinnuo and Wen Xiaoyun, "Two distinguished guests, please come this way."
When he came closer, Wen Xiaoyun was able to take a closer look at Tie Bo's appearance.
He has lowered eyebrows, a long face, a hooked nose, a sunken chin, dark skin, and wrinkles on his face. He looks about fifty or sixty years old.
He is not as thin and frail as an ordinary old servant. Although he is not fat, he is very strong. He is just habitually hunched over and has an aura of humility.
Wen Xiaoyun swallowed unconsciously, held Yin Nuo's arm tightly, and stepped forward to the tall threshold of the Jiang family with anxiety.
The ferocious scars on Jiang Di's face frightened her, and the unique cold aura of this uncle Tie sent chills down her spine.
Inexplicably, she felt that these people, this house, and the cold wind were echoing everywhere.
It feels like I accidentally broke into a fairy cave.
As if sensing Wen Xiaoyun's uneasiness, Yinnuo was afraid and patted her hand subconsciously, as if to say silently, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Wen Xiaoyun's heart moved slightly.
This was by no means a change in Yinnuo's attitude towards her, it was simply his subconscious behavior of being the boss when doing things.
As long as they are the brothers he brings out, he will protect their safety.
Just like on a fire scene, he went in and out to save his brothers without even caring about his life.
Yinnuo is not a good relative, but he is a good colleague.
After calming down, Wen Xiaoyun began to carefully look at the layout of the Jiang family courtyard with the corner of his eye.
At this time, a white shadow suddenly jumped out from the corner, and landed lightly on the open space in front of everyone.
Wen Xiaoyun and Yin Nuo took a closer look and saw that it was a snow-white kitten.
Wen Xiaoyun, who was a senior poop shoveler in her previous life, saw the ball of fluffy balls and her eyes lit up instantly.
The cat was well-kept. Its two big round eyes looked at Wen Xiaoyun and Yin Nuo curiously. They were green and as moist as emeralds.
The fluffy tail swayed behind him, as if he could make a coquettish glance at every moment.
"Beast!" Jiang Di frowned when he saw the white cat for the first time, suddenly raised his foot and kicked the white cat hard in the waist and abdomen.
The cat let out a howl and screamed, then was kicked far away. It landed hard and rolled twice. It struggled with its four legs and then escaped with a whimper.
Wen Xiaoyun felt like veins were popping on his head.
She almost yelled, the cat is so cute, why should she bully it? !
Yin Nuo pinched her at the critical moment before she could barely suppress her anger.
"Master," Uncle Tie looked at the pitiful figure of the white cat and stepped forward timidly, "That is Madam's favorite cat. If you treat her like this, Madam will definitely be sad if she knows about it."
Jiang Di paused for a moment, then glanced at Uncle Tie coldly, "You don't even know your master, why are you raising it? Didn't I tell you to throw it away this morning? Why haven't you disposed of it yet?"

Yinnuo: I don’t want to vomit, I don’t want to vomit~~~Hold it~~I really don’t want to vomit~~~
