The next morning.
Li Qinghua came to Xie Fan early and said that he did not entertain well last night and drank too much.
Xie Fan said that when he was ready to leave, he wanted to check out the shop first.
On a slightly deserted street, Li Qinghua stopped.
He pointed to a two-story shop next to him, "Brother Xie, this shop costs one hundred taels of silver, which is definitely a bargain!"
Xie Fan felt that although it was a little deserted, the house was not an old house and could be used with simple cleaning. "Brother Li, this is the only room! I will take over in a month!"
Li Qinghua presented the house deed, "Brother Xie, I'm waiting for you in Liulin!"
Xie Fan returned to the inn and hurriedly hit the road.
Just after leaving the city gate, he ran to the hillside in the distance and picked a few flowers in full bloom.
Zhu Ran was driving in front, while Xie Fan and Ziying were in the car.
Ziying looked at Xie Fan, "Sir, the flowers you picked are so beautiful!"
Xie Fan smiled and said, "These flowers are for Yue'er!"
Zhu Ran tilted his ears while driving, wondering if the young mistress and Mrs. Liao were the same person.
Ziying heard the meaning of the other party's words and felt extremely disappointed, "Master, why do you help me redeem my life?"
"Drink too much, do whatever you want!" Xie Fan replied casually, raising his voice, "Zhu Ran, go to Shakou!"
"Yes, Master!"
Ziying's expression was serious, "Master, how will I be accommodated when I return to Xie's house?"
"What will you do? There will definitely be a place for you in the Xie family!"
Zi Ying's face was as frosty as she gritted her teeth and said, "I can serve men!"
The carriage drove over a slope, and the three of them jumped high together.
Xie Fan had trouble breathing and coughed twice, "Grandma's! How dare you say that! Can you serve it? You can eat it!"
Ziying turned her head to the side, "I won't serve anyone I don't like! Otherwise, you try and see if I can serve you!"
Zhu Ran was sweating on his forehead, fearing that the two people in the car would start a fight if they disagreed!
Xie Fan sighed, "It doesn't matter what you were like before. Follow me and live a good life in the future! Otherwise, you can learn the craft of weaving. This is suitable for you!"
Ziying was silent for a moment and then shouted, "I will be your maid and serve you forever!"
"What's good about being a maid?"
"I want to be a maid, and also a roommate!"
Xie Fan blushed and did not dare to look at the other person, "Go back and introduce Hui'er to you. Your brain circuits should be the same!"
Ziying didn't wear makeup today, and she looked like a very beautiful girl after removing the rouge. She stood up and sat next to Xie Fan, "I don't care, I want to be your maid!"
Xie Fan looked out the window, "Let's talk after you go back and see Yue'er!"
"Who is Yue'er?"
Zhu Ran was outside and shouted, "That's our young mistress!"
Asking questions knowingly, Ziying laughed at her own stupidity, "Young Master, you are an idiot!"
After a day's journey, we finally arrived at Shakou at night.
The simple inn still only has one room left.
Zhu Ran went to Zhan Tang for an excuse and said he would not be back tonight.
This time, Ziying obeyed Ziying's wishes, "Master, let me serve you and rest!"
Xie Fan had goosebumps all over his body, "You should call me Master, let's sleep separately!"
A bed, no matter how far apart it is, is only a thought away.
Xie Fan deliberately turned his face to the other side, and his heartbeat had already stopped beating.
A cold little hand gently touched his back, "Ziying, sleep on your own!"
"Master, I don't want a title, I just want to accompany you..."
Boom!
There was a knock on the door, "Master, it's not good!"
Xie Fan quickly stood up, and Ziying shrank back into bed.
Zhu Ran entered the room and turned pale with panic. "I just inquired. Zhan Tang is in prison and will be interrogated tomorrow!"
Xie Fan closed the door, "What crime? When did it happen?"
"He said he bullied a stupid girl and killed someone to silence her. There are witnesses!"
Xie Fan sat on the edge of the bed, stamped his feet and beat his chest, "I told you a long time ago that this case should not be involved! Do you know who the witness is?"
"I don't know! It seems that Gouwa died too, and it's all Zhan Tang's fault!"
Ziying put on her clothes and gathered around, "Master, what's the matter?"
Zhu Ran told Ziying what happened, "You cannot blame the young master for this matter. The young master also couldn't bear to see the stupid girl being bullied, so he told Zhan Tang."
"Zhu Ran, what do you want to give her the following?" Xie Fan said in a majestic manner, not allowing for refutation, "How much money do we have left, give it all!"
"Master, there are only a dozen taels left!"
Xie Fan touched his waist and said, "I still have five taels here! Early tomorrow morning, you can also sell the carriage! Then take the money and see if you can make some purchases!"
Zhu Ran knelt on the ground, "Master, the carriage cannot be sold! If it is sold, how will we go back?"
This is indeed a problem. Xie Fan waved his hand and said, "Rescuing Zhan Tang is important. Don't think about anything else!"
Ziying opened her package and took out the silver that Xie Fan rewarded her that day, "I still have three taels here!"
Xie Fan was stunned for a moment, then took the silver from his hand, "Take them all!"
Zhu Ran said in a deep voice, "Master, let me first thank you for your great kindness on behalf of Zhan Tang!"
"Stop talking about this. Who else do you know? Go and find out again! At this time, there is no use looking for the deceased's family. It is obvious that the official wants his life!"
"That silly girl died so pitifully!" Ziying muttered.
Xie Fan slapped his forehead and said, "Yes, let's see if we can change the sentence to being sent to the army to guard the border. It shouldn't be difficult!"
"Yes, that's how the flower picker was treated!" Zhu Ran muttered and hurriedly retreated.
Ziying looked at Xie Fan and asked carefully, "Master, why are you willing to help him?"
Xie Fan sighed, "Such a talent shouldn't die like this!"
"Master, what about that stupid girl? She is already stupid, why do you still want to help her?"
Xie Fan was stunned for a second, "There is no distinction between high and low. We are all born equal. She did nothing wrong and should not be treated like this! Unfortunately, I did not help her, but may have harmed her!"
Ziying naturally connected this matter with herself.
Young Master, first he met the silly girl, and then he met himself. Perhaps it was the appearance of the silly girl that made me what I am today.
In this case, the young master may have never liked himself.
Ziying got into bed and felt the cold wind penetrate the layers of protection and hit her heart.
Xie Fan saw Ziying trembling, so he took his quilt over and covered her up.
I walked to the window and opened it. There was a bright moon in the sky and the stars were gorgeous.
What is Lin Yue doing now? Is she tired of guarding the Xie family alone?
Ziying knew that it didn't matter how Xie Fan felt about her.
A moth flies into a flame, even if his body is shattered to pieces, he will never look back.
From this moment on, she decided to dedicate everything she had to protecting this man who did not belong to her.
