A few people chatted about this meal, and it was already dark, so they dispersed and got into the carriage. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Ji Bai and Jia Tan sat by the fire, and listened to Jia Tan: "Six days ago, after you left the flower dock, the eldest lord set off back to Jinling City two days later, and Mr. Zhao was also taken back to the algae garden by the eldest lord, and the next day there was a letter from the capital, saying that the emperor had summoned him several times, so let him go back quickly, and the eldest lord left in a hurry." ”

"The old lady also asked where the fifth master went twice, and the little ones followed the words of the fifth master and said that you should ask Dr. Zhou to see Mr. Zhao, but the old lady didn't ask, only said that the people who followed him would serve him wholeheartedly. The old ladies and gentlemen in the family all inquired about the origin of Mr. Zhao and Young Master Li, and they all replied according to the words sent by the fifth master. ”

Ji Bai listened carefully and asked, "Where did the major shopkeepers come from, where are there any movements?" ”

Snorted, Jia probed the wrong tooth, and said angrily: "The most diligent person to run to the shopkeepers is the fourth master, and the four masters are hot to go with Qin Zhong Qin Da shopkeeper, and Sun Daishan in the water, the little one once followed them in person, and heard the fourth master ask Qin Zhong to shoot a calligraphy and painting of the holy hand Chu family, saying that he would first ask for 30,000 taels of silver, and put the things in Qin Zhong, and he would return it after half a month." ”

Hearing this, Ji Bai's expression sank suddenly, he remembered that there were several pairs of contemporary treasures of the Holy Hand Chu in his father's collection, and there was a year when Ji Mingchu was born, and he just begged for the past, and when he was young, he often took it out and said in front of his brothers, cherishing it very much, how much silver he is lacking now, and the priceless contemporary paintings of Chu are also taken out and sold, what did he do? This matter needs to be investigated.

"Fifth master," Jia Tan shouted softly, looking at Ji Bai's gloomy expression, he was a little stunned, Ji Mingchu, a fake gentleman with a dirty heart, I don't know what kind of basket he poked outside this time.

Ji Bai restrained his thoughts, only to find that it was raining, the cold wind was blowing, and the fine raindrops smashed on his face, and his face was wet after a while.

"The fifth master should go back to the carriage and rest, don't get your clothes wet." Jia Tan stood up, and when he raised his eyes, he saw a washing inkstone with an oil-paper umbrella coming over.

Ji Bai raised his head slightly, looking at the sky like a piece of black cloth, he was speechless, there was a little girl in the car, even if she didn't treat herself as a woman, he couldn't ignore her reputation, it was raining on this day, and there was no extra carriage, where did he go back.

"Master, it's going to rain heavily," Xi Yan held the umbrella and reminded in a low voice. He was also worried in his heart, the master just said, tonight's vigil, tomorrow when he arrives in the town, he will stay at the inn, but why is this day so unbeautiful, all blame Li Chenyu for that guy, why is she not a man, the girl's family is a lot of things, and the harmful master has no place to go.

"Maybe a carriage?" Ji Bai's brows were furrowed, and his voice was low, as if he was tired.

Jia Tan glanced at the inkstone for some reason, thought about it, and said: "I'm afraid it can't be, Zhou Lao and they have one by one, and there is also a sundries and utensils loaded with most of the car, and the two of them barely squeezed into the inkstone, and there is nothing superfluous." Why did the fifth master ask about this? ”

Sure enough, Ji Bai was just a fluke to ask, sighed secretly, waved his hand to take the umbrella in Xiyan's hand, and ordered: "Wait a while to boil a pot of hot soup, and the vigil will drink to warm their bodies, and protect Zhou Lao's carriage, and there can be no mistakes." ”

"Yes, the subordinates don't dare to slack off at all, the fifth master can rest assured." Qin Zhong's voice was loud, and his gaze was firm and distant.

Ji Bai gave a few more instructions, then walked towards the carriage, stopped by the window and raised his hand to knock gently.

Bang -

With a muffled sound, Li Chenyu kicked the wall of the car a few times with his feet and shouted, "What's the matter?" ”

"It's raining," Ji Bai said helplessly, his lips pursed into a straight line, this was extremely helpless, he went around to the door and pushed open the carriage door.

"It's raining?"

Li Chenyu was pushing the window to look at the night sky outside the window, there were thin rainwater dripping on his face, and when he heard the sound, he turned around and looked over, "What are you standing there for?" Aren't you going to come up? ”

"It's going up," Ji Bai responded, raised his legs and got into the carriage, took off his shoes and sat cross-legged in the corner of the door, diagonally with Li Chenyu's position.

Li Chenyu watched his movements and suddenly smiled. Bullied in front of Ji Bai, who was close, almost facing this face, looking at him with a smile in his eyes, "Why are you so twisted?" It's not because you're in the same carriage as me, you're embarrassed, are you? ”

The heat hit his face, Ji Bai suddenly felt that the roots of his ears were hot, and the brows that had just been stretched out were tightly wrinkled together, turned his head sideways, and said lightly: "I didn't twist, but you, it's very strange." ”

Li Chenyu tilted his little head, his face turned to Ji Bai again, and he pretended to be puzzled, "What's wrong with me?" I didn't. ”

The hot and humid breath sprayed on his face, his face was itchy and uncomfortable, Ji Bai moved with disgust, leaned against the wall of the car, looked at Li Chenyu with oblique eyes, and said seriously: "Go back and sit down, it's time to rest." ”

Hearing this, Li Chenyu's eyes floated, his eyes narrowed, he looked straight at Ji Bai's ears, and said, "Don't move," Yu Guang skimmed at Ji Bai's face, and then said: "You have a little spider in your hair, I'll help you take it off?" ”

Ji Bai was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically: "What spider?" ”

"I'll take it off for you to see." As Li Chen spoke, he leaned over and raised his hand towards the hair in Ji Bai's ear.

Ji Bai was blocked in the face, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Li Chenyu's white and tender neck and delicate collarbone, he subconsciously raised his hand, and put it down again, thinking that it would be good to wait a minute, that is, could she not get so close, this girl was too close.

"Hey, it ran into the hair, really, I'll look for it." Li Chen muttered a sentence in his mouth, his hands randomly picked up Ji Bai's neat black hair, leaned on Ji Bai's shoulder, frowning and rummaging for the little spider that crawled without a trace.

"Okay, okay, don't look for it," Ji Bai hurriedly stopped, and he already felt that his hair was loosely picked.

"Wait a while, wait a while," Li Chenyu, who saw the shadow of the spider, reached out violently, grabbed a ball of black hair with his five fingers, and looked at it carefully.

Ji Bai's scalp hurt violently, and he snorted when he was caught, and when he raised his hand, he grabbed the clothes in Li Chenyu's heart and pulled her out of his arms.

"Hey, what are you doing," Li Chen's tone was dissatisfied, she was about to catch the spider Okay, what is this guy dragging her at a critical moment.

He grabbed his hair in his hand, and held the spider's hand tightly to grasp it.

Ji Bai let go after two tuggings, and looked at Li Chenyu's slightly complaining eyes, "Don't catch it, a little spider doesn't get in the way, how many of my hairs have been dragged off by you?" ”
