"I don't want it!"

Probably never thought that she would be rejected, the woman's face changed, and her eyes immediately became fierce when she looked at Ruoshui again. But she didn't do anything yet, and the masked man standing on the side was reluctant at first.

"Hey! Why don't you know what to do! Do you know who you're rejecting? ”

Raising her hand to stop the masked man's ghostly roar, the woman pinched Ruoshui's chin and lifted it up with force.

"The chef of the current imperial dining room wanted to enter my door, but I didn't want it, and now I ask you again, can you be my apprentice?"

"I-no-yes!"

After a word, these three words were spit out very clearly. Although his jaw hurt from being pinched, Ruoshui still chose to refuse again with a firm gaze.

The eyes looked at each other for a long time, but the water never flinched, and finally the woman looked away. She let go of her hand and sat back in her seat.

"Ha~ It's quite backbone~ I just don't know if I can still have such backbone in a while? But since you don't want to, then I don't have any reason to catch up. Ghost Face, when she's done cleaning up, let's send her back~"

"Yes......"

Although there was indignation in his eyes, the masked man still bowed his head and responded, but Ruoshui was a little surprised.

"Let me go back? Doesn't Madame need me to do something? ”

"What? You also said, what can you do for me if you are just a country girl? No, no, no, leave as soon as possible, so as not to stay here and get in the way of my eyes. ”

Now that the words have been said about this, if the water does not leave, it will be a bit of a trick. So she pulled Xiao Yong, once again solemnly kowtowed to the woman, and then got up and went out with the masked man.

It was taken captive empty-handed, and when it was time to leave, there was actually nothing to pack, just take the clothes that I was wearing when I came.

The masked man stood behind Ruoshui, watching her fold her and Xiao Yong's old clothes, and was silent for a moment, but finally couldn't help but speak.

"Do you even know who you just turned down? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and others can't ask for it~"

"Uncle Ghost Face, eh, I don't know if I should call you Uncle, let's call it that first~ Ruoshui is a person with no ambitions, and he doesn't want to ask for any wealth and fame, as long as his family is rich and healthy. I appreciate Madame's kindness, but Ruoshui is now very content, and I don't want to get involved in most of the rights and wrongs. ”

Now the mask man finally understands why Ruoshui is unwilling, and it seems that the last sentence is the real reason why she is unwilling. I didn't expect her to see the world so clearly at such a young age, and it is indeed inevitable to be burdened under fame, which is not as good as the freedom of ordinary people.

It's a pity that she doesn't know that she has already been involved in right and wrong, and if she wants to escape again, she can't help herself.

Since there was nothing to pack, Ruoshui quickly packed her old clothes and was about to go out, when the masked man suddenly stopped her and took out a jade pendant from his sleeve.

"Madame asked me to pass it on to you."

Ruoshui didn't reach out to take it, but looked down at the jade pendant carefully. Rao is that she has not studied these jades, but just looking at the carving and the crystal material of the whole body, it is also extraordinary.

This jade pendant is engraved with clouds like water, a big bird rises on the clouds, chicken head, swallow jaw, snake neck, turtle back, fish tail, it is the characteristic of the phoenix, the bottom hangs a big red tassel spike, just look at the carved surface has a kind of indescribable rich appearance.

"This ...... Mrs. has already saved my life, how can I accept any more gifts, Uncle Ghost Face take it back quickly~ Ruoshui really can't afford it. ”

"If you take it, you will take it! This is a token, do you still think that the feelings are for you to exchange money? Madame said that if you encounter a problem that cannot be solved in the future, even if you take this token to the nearest garrison camp, someone will help you through it. It's just that once you use this token, you will be deemed to have agreed to Madame's request, and from then on you will be her disciple. ”

"This ...... I ......"

Ruoshui stared at this jade pendant, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while whether to take it or not. The masked man was impatient to wait, so he took Ruoshui's hand and stuffed it.

"This is a life-saving thing, you don't have to pay any price to take it, what do you do with your mother-in-law!"

Hearing what the masked man said, Ruoshui thought about it and felt that it was not unreasonable, so he wrapped it in a silk handkerchief and put it away alive.

"Uncle Ghostface, I still have some questions I want to ask."

"Say it quickly."

The masked man was already visibly impatient.

"I heard my family Xiaoyong say that he was brought back by you, I want to ask, where did you rescue him, and I will be more prepared in the future."

"Ah~ This matter~ Madame won't let me say it."

Choked half to death by this sentence, Ruoshui worked hard to keep his smile from collapsing, and continued to ask.

"Why didn't Madame let me say it?"

"If you don't let you say it, you don't want to say it, what are so many whys, whoever makes you refuse to be Madame's apprentice, then don't blame yourself for not being qualified to know too much. What's more, even if you know about this person, you can't afford to provoke him, so it's better not to know anything, so as not to add to the troubles. Rest assured, Madame has already sent more people to watch over him, and you will not be in danger for the time being. ”

“……”

The amount of information in this sentence is really a bit large, if Shui realizes that he is likely to provoke some big person, but his humble status is not enough to know the inside story, and he refuses to be tied to the camp rashly, so he can only live with such a fear and ignorance first.

"Are you done cleaning up? I'll do it when I'm done. ”

The masked man said viciously, and suddenly raised a hand.

"Hands-on? Do what? ”

Shocked, Ruoshui pulled Xiao Yong back several steps again and again.

"Knock you out."

Yun Qingfeng's words were as simple as drinking water.

"Why did you knock me out?"

"Nonsense! Madame's abode is very hidden, and no outsiders must be allowed to know how to enter, so as not to stun you, do you have to wait for you to leak this route? ”

"I'm sure I'm not going to leak it...... Ahh

Before Ruoshui finished speaking, the masked man had already cut down with two consecutive hand knives, one large and one small each so soft that it fell to the ground, as if he had passed out.

"Surely not? Where in this world is there so much 'affirmation', it is better not to know directly, everyone is worry-free. ”

Muttering in his mouth to answer Ruoshui's question, regardless of whether she could hear it now, the masked man picked up the big one and the small one with one hand, and as soon as he showed his figure, he had already rushed out of the door.
