Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Shadow

Sima Chen finished the discussion with Ling'er when it was about to dawn, and when he was about to leave, Ling'er spoke:

"No matter how anxious the son is, it's not bad for a moment, let's use some porridge first." Sima Chen saw that Ling'er was ready, and he couldn't refuse, so he had to eat with Ling'er, and only after he was full did he leave Ling'er and go on the road.

"Girl, go in and rest for a while, it's still an hour before dawn." Qiao'er saw that Ling'er was going to the study, so she hurriedly spoke.

"It's not appropriate to fall asleep immediately when you're full, I'll read a book for a while, and then squint on the couch in the study for a while." How could Ling'er be able to sleep now? Qiao'er didn't say anything more when she saw Ling'er like this, and left after laying out the quilt for Ling'er, Ling'er didn't like to have someone around and always let her stay outside.

"Come out now, it's reasonable for us to meet officially." Ling'er said lightly to the empty room, and as soon as the words fell, two black-clad teenagers slipped in from the window, and they knew that they were master-level figures at a glance.

"Shadow One, I've seen my master."

"Shadow two, I've seen my master." The two look exactly the same, except that there is a red dot at the center of the eyebrows, and the second shadow is two.

"Did you understand Sima Chen's words?" Ling'er was still shocked when she saw them now, she didn't feel a trace of such a big two living people who had been following her for a month, either Sima Chen told her today that she would not know until she died.

"Understood." The two spoke in unison.

"I didn't ask just now, but now I want to ask you, if one day Sima Chen and I become mortal enemies, to the point where either he dies or I die, then you are so self-contained?" Ling'er didn't want to leave other people's eyeliner around her, although these two people were very useful, but she couldn't accept it.

"Listen to the master's orders, and never say anything." The two are twins and have the same heart.

"I told you to kill him?" Ling'er was very skeptical.

"Go." The two of them answered very simply, Ling'er originally wanted to hear such an answer, but now she felt uncomfortable when she got it.

"You guys were cultivated by him since childhood, and you are so ruthless?" Ling'er suddenly felt that Sima Chen was not worth it, and she didn't want to think about who asked these questions?

"There are a lot of people like us around Childe, and the two of us are just going to die." This time it was Keichi who answered.

"And you're going?" Ling'er thought about it, it was impossible for him to be protected by a master.

"Do not disobey the orders of your master." Ling'er was impressed by their determined eyes, it was a real kind of death-seeking, even a world-class performance master could not show such a realm, and suddenly she was no longer awkward, but glad that she had met a partner like Sima Chen.

"When you're around me, you must keep your mouth shut and don't tell anyone about me." Ling'er originally wanted to say Sima Chen, but fortunately, it was changed to anyone in the end, so the level of secrecy is the highest.

"The two of us can only talk to our masters, and the others can't see us." Kageji replied that he was very awkward in his heart, and he didn't understand why the master let them be by the side of a little girl, but after this month, they completely agreed with her new master's status. Today they also took the initiative to propose to Sima Chen to formally recognize the master, only in this way can they be regarded as real shadow guards, although they have sworn to be the son of the son for the rest of their lives, but as far as they are concerned, it is only a matter of time before they see that they will return to the side of the son sooner or later.

"Then what you were before, and what you are now, this is some silver, and you take it with you." Ling'er gave them two hundred taels of silver tickets, but Sima Chen only said that she would let her give them living expenses every month, but did not say the specific amount. So Hu Ling'er's character from the Northeast came out again, and it was two hundred taels if she gave it, and it would be strange if Min'er didn't take back her financial power if she knew.

"Master, this is too much, we can afford two taels a month." The two of them were also shocked when they saw the face value.

"Huh? I don't care about the previous things, I'll take it for you, one hundred and twenty taels of it will be regarded as a reserve fund, I will give you ten taels every month, and you will go to Uncle Liu to withdraw it in four months. If you use the reserve money, you only need to explain to Uncle Liu what you have done with it, and you can withdraw the corresponding amount, in short, you must always have one hundred and twenty taels of silver in your hands, so that if I suddenly ask you to do anything, you will not be delayed because of the silver. After Ling'er finished speaking, he let the two of them go without opening their mouths, in fact, they wanted to say that they didn't need money to do things, but when they saw that Ling'er was arranging the way, they were smart and didn't speak, and the master's face was bigger than the sky.

The matter of the shadow brothers is over, and Ling'er recalls Sima Chen's words, and her heart sinks. This Yi Junan is really speechless, why did he provoke Min'er in such a situation? Although Min'er didn't say it directly, the fool also knew what she was thinking? Hey, it's very troublesome when it comes to feelings.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but think of Sima Chen again, why was he so good to her? Just for yourself in partnership with him? Even if it is entrusted by Yi Jun'an, it won't be like this, right? Besides, it's not her who is Yi Junanto, if it is because she really doesn't make sense, she is only eleven years old, and she is still a few years away from a woman. Ling'er, who had a big head, didn't come up with a reason in the end, so she had to fall asleep with questions......

"Sima, did you give Shadow One and Shadow Two?" When Qianli finished the affairs in Beijing and rushed to the border, Sima Chen gave him a big surprise.

"Hmm." Sima Chen completely ignored Qianli's father-like expression.

"Do you still have any humanity? I've begged you more than a thousand times, not to mention that it's one of the brothers, and you won't give it to me, but now it's a good two to give it to a little girl? I'm your brother, isn't the love between us as good as a little girl who hasn't met a few times? Qianli was really sad at first, but when he said it, he started to play, anyway, Sima's character has no regrets. Then why do you have to ask for Shadow Six or Shadow Eight now, otherwise maybe he will be given away again one day.

"Get out." Sima Chen didn't even look at the self-absorbed Qianli there.

"Sima, how can you do this to me? To soothe my wounded heart, give me Shadow Six. Qianli almost threw his snot away.

"Shadow Six is by Zhao Min'er's side, Shadow Eight is by Zhao He's side, go out and cry, dirty." Sima's words were a nightmare for Qianli, and he only now put away his playfulness and looked at Sima Chen squarely, and said in a calm tone:

"Sima, you ......" Before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Sima.

"Let's go out, why don't you go to Jiangnan?" Qianli jumped three high and rushed out, without giving Sima a chance to say more. After he went out, Sima Chen suddenly collapsed in the chair, originally just curious to know more, who knew that the more he knew, the more he would be confused, and before he knew it, he fell into the pit he dug himself. Since he fell in, he didn't plan to come out, and of course she didn't want to be alone outside, so she should stay in the pit with him. But when I thought that she was only eleven years old, I couldn't help but feel a chill, and my taste was really "special".

"Ah sneeze......" Ling'er rubbed her nose, and Qiao'er hurriedly handed over a cup of hot tea.

"Girl, are you going to catch a cold? Shall I ask Mr. Wang to come and check your pulse? ”

"What's cold? It's a few months now, and I'm catching a cold.,I think someone is saying bad things about me behind my back.,Don't make a fuss.,Go see if there's a letter from my sister.。 After Ling'er sent Qiao'er out, he took out the note again, Sima said that he didn't write it, so who could it be?

The next few days Ling'er had a very smooth life, but it was rumored in the county that the Song family's business plummeted because of offending the nobles, and at this critical moment the Song family in the capital was implicated in the largest private salt case since the founding of the Dafeng Dynasty. Naturally, someone deliberately let Ling'er know these words, and she didn't pay much attention to Ma's "enthusiastic" Ling'er, anyway, there is a big tree standing behind her now. As long as she doesn't overdo it, she's only eleven years old anyway, and there is no one to compare with her if she is a little careless.

"Girl, it's August 15 in two days, will we go back in the county?" Qiao'er hasn't had a holiday outside yet.

"Don't go back, we've been in the county, my father and my sister will come and let's go to the lantern festival together to enjoy the lanterns." Ling'er wanted to go back, but Min wrote to say that she and Zhao He had come to the county for the holiday.

"Really? That's great, I'll go and prepare now. Qiao'er quickly ran to find Sister-in-law Gui, this sister-in-law Gui was bought by Ling'er a while ago, she was the housekeeper of the family who was sold by the original owner because of illness, and now she is a housekeeper for Ling'er. She is very cool, she is a typical northern woman, in the original family is because of her chivalrous heart and hindered the eyes of a certain aunt's wife, or it is impossible to sell people because of a little cold.

After Ling'er heard about her, she sent Uncle Liu but sold her back, of course, the reason why she knew about her was because a certain aunt who came to the shop for a massage told another lady. They didn't carry Fan's aunt and nephew behind their backs, so many of the details were explained very carefully, and Fan's ears hurt in their ears, so they told Ling'er what happened after they left. Ling'er was overjoyed when she heard this, she really wanted to sleep and someone sent a pillow, she was thinking about finding a housekeeper or something, and she couldn't let Qiao'er do everything.

Since the opening of the health hall, Ling'er has heard a lot of gossip, not because she wants to hear it, but because those women always have to talk about things when they are together. Fan Shi panicked when he heard this, so he said to Ling'er, it has become a habit after a long time, and now Fan will tell Ling'er as soon as he has any news, and then he will never tell anyone else about it as if he forgot it. It's okay to give Fan a chance to vent, so as to save her from holding her back, Ling'er explained like this, so that she will not admit that she has a gossip heart.
