Chapter 30: The Taste of It
On second thought, no, I have the easiest way to get out!
I just need to restore women's clothes, what does it have to do with the bounty order?!
With this thought, I was overjoyed, and said to Ji Jiu: "I was confused just now, but it's actually very simple, I will directly restore the women's clothes to become a ......."
"That will also be after the dart game."
"Master Gu has been polite to us so far, she won't want to imprison us here."
Ji Jiu's fingers resting on the table tapped on the table, and said in a low voice: "Since she has left us to live here for the time being, we will wait until tomorrow morning to see her and ask tentatively." β
"At the moment, it seems that there is no other way." I agree with Ji Jiu's Jianyì.
"It's late at night, get ahead early." I retreated the way I came, and had just taken the door for him, and stood still under the eaves, when suddenly a figure shook in the distance, and quickly disappeared into the shadows of the trees.
I looked at the yard with a sharp look on my face, and I didn't find anything out of the ordinary, but when I returned to the hut where I lived, I couldn't sleep at all.
After the lights went out, I walked to the window lightly, pulled up the curtain to reveal a gap and looked into the courtyard, and by the way, I also looked at the forest outside the courtyard.
I watched for half an hour, but no sound came, and I was about to lower the curtain when a figure suddenly appeared on the path outside the courtyard.
I could clearly identify from the other party's attire that it was Gu Dart Master who had helped me out of the siege today, she looked solemn, and walked along the path to the outside of the courtyard, the low courtyard wall was surrounded by a bamboo fence, and some equally low shrubs were used as a block.
Of course, this barrier was not enough to cover Gu Dartmaster's figure, so from my point of view, she was standing outside the bamboo fence, as if she was preoccupied.
She didn't push open the bamboo door into the courtyard, but she didn't mean to leave, she just stood outside the courtyard, raising her head from time to time to look in the direction of us.
More precisely. It's in the direction I'm in.
I was furious by her eyes, and suddenly it occurred to me that she could see the movement in my room?!
At this time, I was a little bit of a soldier...... At night, to be honest, how can you see the curtains in a brightly lit place?
I watched her movements, and watched by the window for most of the hour, and she didn't leave.
I couldn't hold it anymore, and after thinking about it again and again, I felt that it was important to sleep now, and I could wait for the sun to come out tomorrow morning.
In the middle of the night, even if I was interested, I went out to talk to her. I'm a man, what's that called?
Wu Zi shook his head, I threw down a thought, walked straight back to the chuang, and lay down.
It was just dawn. I was awakened by a knock on the door, and when I opened my eyes, I was sure that I had heard correctly, not in a dream.
I got down from the chuang and slowly went to open the door, and my eyes lit up, and Ji Jiu changed into the men's outfit I saw on the street yesterday. A hat and an airtight garment.
Squinting and seeing that he was still holding a package in his hand, I suddenly realized that it must be the clothes sent by Master Gu to go out on the street.
Let Ji Jiu wait outside the door, I quickly changed into the clothes that looked particularly suitable, and I don't know where Gu Dart Master found it, not to mention the excellent texture. The size was just right, except for the waist that was slightly wider by an inch, I added a corset, and it was solved.
When I went out, Ji Jiu's eyes swirled on my body. Suddenly, he leaned over and grabbed the corner of my coat.
Startling me, he took a step back and glared at him and said, "Okay, what are you doing?" β
Soon he raised his head to look at me, and frowned slightly between his eyebrows: "Xiaolin, your clothes are old." β
When he found something new, I looked at him angrily and said, "We are now temporarily living in someone's house, eating and sleeping well, and you are still qualified to pick on new and old clothes?" β
Ji Jiu lowered his head and pondered for a few seconds, and said in a low voice: "I can't say what's wrong, in short, it's a little weird......" "I thought about it last night, if there is any problem, I will know if I see her today and talk to her." β
I slept well last night, and now I am refreshed and in a good mood, and I feel that even if there is a problem, there will always be a countermeasure to cover the water and earth.
Ji Jiu glanced at me, and said in a light tone: "She asked someone to come to inform her, saying that she was going to the flower hall to talk to her in detail, since you are ready, we will go over immediately." "What about the steward and the attendant who drove the car?" I turned my head, no one came behind me, I looked at the other room, and I didn't see anyone moving, wondering, where did these two people go? "They all stayed in the house, and the people below sent only two sets of clothes, and they didn't have their share."
Ji Jiu explained to me, his expression was very calm. "I also expect to be able to have four people on the street today, close to each other, if there is an accident, it is better than me being alone."
With a wave of disappointment in my heart, I muttered a few words in a low voice. "Hengcheng is the same as the rest of Xilan, or more powerful, you explain your identity to her, the hierarchy here is clear, I think even if she agrees to us to go out, she will not be willing to take the steward and attendants, maybe it is reasonable to bring a few maids to follow us." "Maid?" I raised my head and tilted my head to look at Ji Jiu, "What's the use?" "Naturally, it is to protect us two weak men, so that others will not covet them."
"You say, will others think that we are the Gu family?"
"It's possible."
Ji Jiu walked in front of me, and his new clothes looked very eye-catching.
I was told by him just now, and now that I was following him, my eyes began to look at his clothes repeatedly.
It looks like his clothes are worse than mine, and they don't fit as well on him.
I looked down and twisted the fabric of my shirt, and if you look very closely, you will see that the dress is not brand new.
But I don't care, on other people's territory, so dedicatedly to help me arrange, what else do I have to complain about?
Until the other party's true intentions are clear, I still try to think as kindly as possible.
Following Ji Jiu's detour through the forest, I asked curiously: "Why do you walk like you are in your own yard, if I hadn't come out of the bamboo forest in the east courtyard with you, I would really think it was the home of your old acquaintance!" β
Ji Jiu paused and said: "I saw the maid who brought the clothes this morning, give her some benefits, and figure out the terrain of the entire Gu family, a few side doors, a few rooms in the front and back yards, and what kind of people are."
"Stop," I quickly stopped, "what is your habit?" β
"The habit of being prepared for danger in times of peace, good novels:."
"You have been infected by the empress, don't look at you are thousands of miles away from her now, some kind of Cheng dΓΉ came up, you have a close side to her."
"Do you want to reconsider, anyway, your original family, you will never be able to go back, the ends of the earth, where to go, maybe it's better to stay by her side."
Ji Jiu's eyes instantly turned cold, and he lowered his voice and said, "I don't want to talk about this now." "Besides, the current situation is no longer something I want to plan, and I will wait until I can see the shape clearly in Sealand."
I caught up with him and suddenly asked, "If, I mean if, the empress and her sister now seem to be completely overwhelming in strength, and the other side has no advantage." "But there are no absolutes in the world, if there is a turnaround and the country of Sealand changes hands, how do you choose?"
Ji Jiu's footsteps stopped suddenly, turned around, and stared at me for a full quarter of an hour before saying, "I don't make such assumptions. β
With that, he quickened his pace across the path toward the Flower Hall, and I trotted behind him.
The moment he walked into the flower hall, before he had time to look at the furnishings in the hall, Gu Dart Master had already gone out to greet him.
Seeing Ji Jiu walking in front of her, she smiled slightly, and then her eyes fell on me behind him, and suddenly her body froze, and some inexplicable feelings flashed in her eyes.
She walked slowly over to me and whispered, "Did you rest well last night?" "Good, very good." I raised my hand and saluted her, "I haven't even bothered to thank you, I have prepared clothes for me and my brother today, and I want to go to the streets of Hengcheng to have a look." β
When she spoke, she always looked at me, her eyes were not instantaneous, her eyes were a little mixed with sentimental tenderness, she lowered her head and said softly: "I want to go out for a walk, yesterday will not happen again, today, I will accompany you and you." "Isn't there anything important in the dart game today?" I looked at her strangely and asked, I have the impression that these kinds of places are always busy. "I'm going to go away, I'm not the only one in the game, what are you worried about?" Gu Dart Master smiled lightly at me. "You're in charge, you're always clear, count me too much." "Big brother, can we go?" I turned my head sideways and shouted at Ji Jiu, his body trembled, and he also squeezed out a smile and said, "Okay." β
The three of us walked on the streets of Hengcheng, the same impression I had when I first saw them yesterday, the streets were bustling with people dressed and fragrant temples, and most of the people who passed by us were women, and occasionally there were one or two young men, walking slowly in the same costumes as us.
In stark contrast to the down-and-out and generous expressions of those women, this Hengcheng man gave me the feeling that he was raised in a deep boudoir and rarely went out.
Walking through the pedestrian flow, the team of three of us was somewhat conspicuous.
The pedestrians who passed by occasionally had a sentence or two of discussion floating. "What Gu Dart Master is carrying is the young man on the street yesterday, right?"
"It must be, when have you seen her take other men out for a few years?"
I noticed a problem, and as I walked, I realized that on the surface I wore a hat and a safety attire, but in fact, walking on the street was not much better than yesterday.
Who made this place so special!
