Chapter 247: Capital
Clenched his fists tightly, looking at Xiao Yong's frightened eyes tugging at the corners of his clothes, Ruoshui still tried his best to slow down his nervous expression, and squeezed out a dry smile, and then said to Lu Li.
"Now that Brother Lu has prepared everything, the little woman can only be disrespectful."
Ruoshui took Xiao Yong's hand and got into the carriage, and the godmother finally looked forward to her daughter sitting beside her, and hurriedly asked what happened? Where exactly are they going now?
"It's okay godmother, let's go home."
At this time, Ruoshui would definitely not be thinking of going to Fengtong County, if he really planned to let them go, it would be impossible to prepare all the chicken coops, carts and medicines early in the morning.
"But...... What about the guys last night? ”
Although the godmother is blind but not blind, she is not like Xiao Yong, she can be fooled in a few words.
"I sent it to their master, and although I didn't kill the dog officer directly, I tied the severed hand to the head of his bed, and when he woke up in the morning, he would be very frightened. As for that Xu Rangli, I buried him in the back garden, and if he hadn't been discovered at this time, I'm afraid he would have suffocated to death. ”
Lu Li was in charge of driving when he came, and he was also sitting in that position when he left, so if Ruoshui couldn't answer in time, he picked it up, and even asked Xiao Yong.
"How? Little brother, is this a relief? ”
Xiao Yong didn't dare to answer, he shrank into Ruoshui's arms. Some looked at Ruoshui helplessly, not knowing how to answer.
Said that he wanted to avenge his parents, but as an eight-year-old child. He only had a vague idea of revenge in his mind, knowing that those people were bad, but he didn't know how to punish them. Maybe for him, a stab to death is already the most cruel means of revenge, buried alive? Sounds horrible!
"Lu Li, I want you to be careful when you speak, my brother is still a child. He wasn't fit to listen to that. ”
There was a sudden silence outside, and after a while, a long sigh came in. Immediately after, Lu Li said softly.
"He's not going to be a kid forever, and you can't protect him for the rest of your life."
At this time, Lu Li had already discovered that his identity was likely to have aroused Ruoshui's suspicions, so he simply stopped hiding it. The tone of the speech is also very different from the previous stereotype. But it made Ruoshui feel annoying even more than before.
For Ruoshui, although this sentence is reasonable, this topic is not suitable for two tense people to talk about, so she just snorted coldly when she heard it, and didn't say anything more, and Lu Li didn't bother with Ruoshui, honestly set up his own car, and never spoke again.
Shonan Prefecture arrived soon. Especially the garrison camp of Lord Zhang, because it is in the suburbs. You don't even have to go into town to get there.
"Miss Xiao, it's here, get off~"
When the carriage arrived at the station, Lu Li lifted the door curtain for Ruoshui with his own hands, and when she jumped off the carriage lightly, and turned around to take Xiao Yong next, Lu Li dropped the door curtain suddenly, separating Xiao Yong and Godmother in the carriage.
"Sister-sister-"
Xiao Yong tore the curtain desperately, but how could he be Lu Li's opponent with his little strength, no matter how much he tossed, he couldn't open the curtain in the slightest.
"Miss Xiao, I want to talk to you."
Lu Li showed his strange smile again, and pouted at the curtain of the carriage. Ruoshui frowned tightly, stared at him and thought for a while, and finally compromised and said to Xiao Yong.
"Xiao Yong, I want to talk to you Brother Lu about something, you are waiting for me in the carriage now."
"Take care of the eldest lady~little brother~"
Lu Li followed up with such a sentence, and then threw Ruoshui a defiant look. He had even calculated that Xiao Yong might feel that something was wrong and run away to report the news, saying that he wanted to take care of his godmother, but in fact, he was just reminding Ruoshui that if Xiao Yong was really gone, then the godmother with limited mobility would become their hostage.
"Take care of my godmother, Xiaoyong, I'll be back soon."
Ruoshui also followed the instructions, she was afraid that Xiao Yong would really think too much and run out to move the rescuers like last time.
Lu Li nodded at her, let go of the hand holding the door curtain, Xiao Yong immediately lifted it, and after seeing Ruoshui beckoning to him, he finally hesitated and didn't get out of the car.
The two walked to a tree outside the camp, where they could still vaguely see the carriage where Xiao Yong and Gan Niang were, Ruoshui vigilantly kept a certain distance from Lu Li, and then asked sternly.
"Tell me who you really are."
"Didn't you give Master Zhang a jade pendant? The agreement between the master and you has started since you took out the jade pendant. Our task is to escort you safely to our master. As for your request, it will soon come to fruition. ”
"Are you saying that my eldest brother and their charges will no longer be prosecuted?"
"Of course, what the master said, it will definitely be done."
Lu Li did not hide his respect for his master in front of Ruoshui, and such a categorical answer really made Ruoshui believe it inexplicably.
"That'...... What price do I have to pay? ”
Ruoshui lowered his head and was silent for a while, then suddenly raised his head and asked, but the other party showed a surprised expression.
"I thought Miss Xiao already knew~ Become the master's apprentice, isn't this something she has made clear to you from the beginning?"
"I just don't know why she used this way to coerce me to become her apprentice, with her identity and status, there should be countless people who want to become her apprentice, what I want to know is, why me?"
"That's a matter between you and your master, and it's inconvenient to answer, and I don't know about it."
About that lady, no matter who she asked, she would always be stuck at a critical moment, Ruoshui took a deep breath angrily, and no longer dwelled on this question, but started a new topic.
"When are you leaving?"
She asked.
"Immediately."
Lu Li replied.
"But my godmother, they ......"
"Master Zhang will take good care of you, you can rest assured of this. In addition, I don't think you have the capital to bargain with us, and fully accept the arrangement that the master has given you, which is what you should do now. ”
"Nope! You're wrong! ”
Ruoshui suddenly replied loudly, and she raised her hand and pulled down her hairpin, the tip of which pressed against her throat.
"This is my capital." (To be continued......)
PS: What exactly did the woman want to get Ruoshui? Does anyone want to know?
