Chapter 25 Wandering
Master Zhao Jiu pursed his thin lips tightly, and a bit of cold smell appeared on his face.
So fucking...
He cursed in his heart.
But he was soft-hearted and sent the woman to his relative's house to surrender, but who knew it had become such a situation!
Just keep her in the Li family?
He saw a hint of annoyance flashing in the eyes of the Seventh Master.
Since Li Jiaao can organize the children of the clan to fight against refugees, he is obviously a big family with a prosperous male family. Although the seventh master is of high age and is highly respected by those people, it depends on his age and the action of running over to check when he hears the movement... it is obviously not the patriarch. Nowadays, food is life. If one person eats more, there will be more burdens and more risks of starving to death due to shortage of food. Not to mention that he is not the patriarch, even if he is the patriarch, he cannot rashly take in strangers and share the food of the cattle people.
I’m afraid that this seventh master will keep Fu Tingyun in Li Jiaao, which is just a moment of pity and a whim!
What will Fu Tingyun do then?
Just marry a Li family member!
What's more, there is the Huayin incident.
No one knows what the Fu family will plan at that time.
No one knows how the Li family members will treat Fu Tingyun when the matter is exposed.
He was so annoyed.
Fu Tingyun's face turned slightly depressed.
He, he wasn't willing to answer at all!
Realizing this, tears burst out from her eyes again without control.
Who is she to him?
It was just a chance meeting, and she was entrusted by her mother to send her to Weinan to marry!
Now that he can't get married, he can't just rely on him just because he is a gentleman who values sincerity and keeps his promises. He has taken good care of her all the way, right?
What's more, he has to rush to Xi'an Prefecture before August 15th!
At this time, she should give him some silver and say goodbye to him with a smile.
But when she thought of her being alone since then, the thug in the green cocoon silk robe of parrots, the stunning and greedy look when she saw her, the hideous faces of those refugees robbed them, and the woman who died under the big tree with only a bellyband, she was afraid... Whether it was a reward or a goodbye, she could not do it or say it.
Fu Tingyun felt a sensation on her face, and couldn't help but feel ashamed.
She is really useless!
What was the case when she was crying in front of him at this time! He must have thought she was pretending to be delicate and provoking him to pity...
She turned her face away and wiped the tears from her face hard, but the tears had their own opinions and seemed to be endless.
A man with a mole on his eyebrows beside Master Qi looked at Fu Tingyun, who was like a pear blossom and rain, and then looked at Master Qi who was sighing, with a slightly cold expression, and said, "Uncle Qi, the food in the village is tight. I am afraid that I have to say this to the elders in the clan first!" The voice was neither high nor low, and the people present could hear it.
No one from Li Jiaao made a sound, but his face showed a look that was supposed to be.
Qi Ye knew that if he could not give his tribe a reasonable reason at this time, he would probably be detained as a reputation for being greedy for beauty. He thought for a while and said in the man's ear: "A few days ago, refugees surrounded the village in Anhua County. The eldest nephews and others were seriously injured. Now the village is short of manpower. Since those refugees have burned Mr. Xie's house in Fengyuan, they might run to our Li Family Ao. Since these two people can protect their ladies from Pingliang to come here safely, they must have some real skills. If they stay in our Li Family Ao, will they still eat for nothing?"
The sound is not high or low, and the people present happened to hear it.
The man frowned, obviously thinking that although Qi Ye's reason was far-fetched, it was not completely unreasonable. At this time, the world was very bad, and the one who could cut off refugees was talents.
Others saw that the mole on their eyebrows didn't say anything, and they didn't say anything.
Fu Tingyun felt even more sad.
Could it be that you still have to leave Master Zhao Jiu here for the people of the Li family to work hard, and can you eat for yourself?
"Master Jiu!" She barely pulled a curve in the corner of her mouth, "Send me to Weinan! Find me an inn and help me find someone to send a letter to my family... If you have any questions, go and do it first. My business cannot be solved in one or two days."
Thinking that she will be alone from now on, she is both afraid and helpless, sad and confused.
Because of privacy, her voice was light and fast. Master Qi and the others were far apart. She walked up to Master Zhao Jiu and murmured. She didn't know what she said. Master Zhao Jiu was by her side, but she could hear it clearly.
His cold face was glowing blue.
If she just wanted him to send her back to Huayin, or cry and beg him for help, he would be so cruel that he might take her to Lintong, and then find a friend to send her back to Huayin and hand it over to her mother, and it would be over. As for how her mother settled her, what would happen to her in the future, it would have nothing to do with him.
But she stood in front of him with red and swollen eyes. She clearly had panic in her eyes, but she said something generous and decent in her mouth... with a bit of stubbornness in her fragility, and a bit of sadness in her stubbornness... It makes people feel unbearable.
Forget it! Forget it!
Since he brought her, he could not just leave her here and ignore her.
This was not originally done by a real man.
Even if you entrust her to a friend, you have to find someone to bring a letter to her mother first, and then wait for her mother's people to pick her up... and follow him, you have to find someone to bring a letter to her mother first, and then wait for her mother's people to pick her up... Instead of bothering others, it is better to just take it with you so that you won't owe your friend a favor.
Master Zhao Jiu's face was as cold as frost.
"Master Qi, thank you for your kindness!" He saluted to Master Qi, "Since Master Jie's family has been killed, let's go to Xi'an Mansion - our wife has a cousin who has married into Xi'an Mansion, but she has not had much contact over the years... But when things have reached this point, she has to disturb her with a shame!"
Fu Tingyun looked at Master Zhao Jiu in horror.
He said that he was going to Xi'an Prefecture to visit relatives... where did she have any relatives in Xi'an Prefecture... It was obvious that he wanted to meet up with his companions... He wanted to take her there...
She was instantly immersed in inexplicable joy, and something appeared in her heart, making her cry.
Master Qi was a little surprised. Thinking that Fu Tingyun had just whispered to Master Zhao Jiu, he thought it was Fu Tingyun's proposal, so he had no doubts. But he would rather come to join Master Jie than join the cousin's aunt whom he had not met for several years. It is believed that the relationship between the two families was not close. But since the Fu family had made up his mind, he would not force him to stay.
Just as he was about to say a few polite words, Zhao Jiuye said: "Our lady remembers the righteousness of Qi Master. But there is another thing. Please ask Qi Master to help me because he is a close neighbor with Master Jie and has done business together!"
In his heart, Master Qi regarded Master Zhao Jiu as a loyal and courageous man. Seeing that Master Zhao Jiu's words were neither humble nor arrogant, he felt a little respect.
He looked upright and said, "You said!"
Mr. Zhao Jiu said: "We thought we would have a support as soon as we arrived in Weinan. We only prepared water and food for more than ten days. Now we are going to Xi'an Prefecture..." He paused and said, "I would like to ask Master Qi to help us solve our urgent needs." As he said that, he took out three small yellow croakers from his sleeve: "We want fifty steamed buns and ten water bags of water. Please ask, see who has more food and water."
Gold bars are commonly known as "big yellow croaker" and "small yellow croaker". Big yellow croaker is usually one tael of silver, and small yellow croaker is usually one tael of silver. Three small yellow croaker is three taels of gold. One tael of gold can usually be exchanged for ten taels of silver, and one tael of silver can usually be exchanged for one thousand cents. In the peaceful and prosperous era, two cents can be exchanged for steamed buns... Now, in Weinan City, you can also buy steamed buns for five hundred cents.
Fu Tingyun widened her eyes.
This is not hers...how did he have this thing?
The people around Qiye’s eyes were much brighter than before.
Master Qi secretly praised Master Zhao Jiu for his ability to do things.
In this way, he also gave an explanation to the clan.
He said generously: "I'd better ask if there is too much food in the family first!" He didn't collect the little yellow croaker.
Master Zhao Jiu just expressed his attitude so that the people of Li Jiaao would treat them as penniless refugees. If they could not raise food, they would starve to death on the road when they went to Xi'an Prefecture.
He once again solemnly thanked Master Qi and proposed to rest in Lijiao for two days before rushing to go.
Master Qi asked them to take them to a remote wing next to the village ancestral hall, and he accompanied the eleventh aunt of the Li family who came to the next three-enterprise courtyard.
Fu Tingyun and Asen looked at the house that was a little old but clean and neat, and everything was very neat. They felt like they were climbing to the sky in one step and arrived at a fairyland, and they all showed a happy expression.
Master Zhao Jiu smiled and asked Asen to push the cart in a tidy manner. He told Fu Tingjun to rest for a while and went out without any explanation.
In the quiet room, only the sound of Asen tidying up the cart.
Fu Tingjun thought of his dead uncle and aunt... his smile gradually faded, and he covered his mouth and sobbed in a low voice.
A woman asked loudly outside the house: "Is this a relative of Mr. Jie's house?"
Fu Tingjun hurriedly wiped his tears, forced a smile and walked out: "That's right!" Then he saw two solid women carrying water standing at the door of the house.
Master Zhao Jiu bought water!
Fu Tingyun hurriedly opened the door and welcomed the two women in: "Thank you for your hard work, two sisters-in-law!"
"No, no, no, no, no!" The two women said with a smile and carried the bucket into the wing room. "She is the fourth in the head and I am the sixth in the head. If the girl still needs water, she will only ask us to pick it up again." The two women said, while secretly looking at Fu Tingyun, as if she was very strange to her.
When Asen heard the news, he had already run over. Seeing four buckets of water, he happily rushed over and hugged the wooden barrel: "How can we finish drinking so much water!" His expression was very happy.
The two women first showed a surprised expression, and then laughed: "This guy, this is not for you to drink, this is what your manager bought for your lady to take a bath."
Fu Tingyun and Asen were both stunned for a moment, and Asen said hurriedly: "This, how much does this cost?"
The two women blushed slightly and said, "A small yellow croaker is a bucket!"
Fu Tingyun's legs became weak and she sat on the kang.
