Chapter 61: A Visit by Night
The two of them came out of Zong Jiyuan's room, and came to the stable to lead the horse out, and met a messenger on duty.
"Master, are you going out?"
"yes,"
While nodding, Zong Jiyuan instructed,
"I'm in a bit of a hurry, I want to go to Hexi Village, please tell the adults and the third brother Diao, by the way, and the master of the kitchen, just say that I have eaten, thank him for me."
After a long period of words, the person had disappeared outside the gate of the county government with Wang Yu......
Out of the city, the two of them did not delay, and came directly to Hexi Village and outside the gate of Zhou's house. called the door, Uncle Naji had already greeted them, and when he saw that it was the master of the county government, he hurriedly let them into the courtyard.
The two errand guards who stayed behind were very responsible, and they were patrolling around, and when they saw Zong Jiyuan coming, they were pleasantly surprised and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Oh my God, master, it's great that you're here!"
"Oh? What's wrong, is something wrong? ”
Zong Jiyuan asked knowingly.
One of the two was a young messenger named Lu Hong,
"It's not going to happen, but it's just the two of us, and it's hard to have an idea if something really happens. But now that you're here, Master, we have the backbone, don't we? ”
"yes, yes,"
Another officer named Co Yi also continued,
"But why did this guy come along?"
The "this guy" mentioned here naturally refers to Wang Yu, which provoked Wang Yu to "grit his teeth" for a long time, and gave him a fierce look.
"Why, can't I come!"
"Two brothers,"
Zong Jiyuan couldn't help but smile and said,
"It's the little brother I asked Brother Wang to come and help."
"Grandmaster!"
The conversation of several people was interrupted by a call from the side, and I saw Zhou Zitong hurrying over.
"Are you really here? That's great! ”
As he spoke, he couldn't help but grab Zong Jiyuan's hands tightly.
Seeing that the other party was so emotional, Zong Jiyuan's heart was also hot, after all, she was a girl, no matter how strong she was, how to take responsibility for herself as a boy, but her daughter's heart was always touched inadvertently.
was slightly stunned, but he had woken up suddenly, and he withdrew his hand without touching the ground, and said with a smile,
"Yes, since this master said that he would come, he would come, and his words should count, right?"
"Uh-huh......"
I don't know if it's because under the reflection of the lights, Zhou Zitong's face was a little red, and his expression was a little flustered.
"I knew you were coming, but I didn't expect it to be so soon......"
"It's fast, it's just,"
Getting rid of the emotion of that moment just now, Zong Jiyuan immediately changed to a naughty face,
"I'll have to trouble you this night, prepare a place for me and this friend of mine, and make breakfast for two people tomorrow morning."
"Master is really joking,"
Zhou Zitong was a little crying and laughing by her,
"Compared to clearing up the grievances of our Zhou family, what is the reason for these two meals, you two please come in quickly."
After returning to his normal state, he looks really elegant, coupled with this handsome face, Zong Jiyuan can't help but think again, a beautiful boy like this should be easy for girls to like......
Tell Lu Hong and Ke Yi to let the two of them divide themselves into the upper and lower half of the night and take turns to rest, and the two errand officers originally planned to do the same, but because they couldn't rest assured, they were on duty together, and now that they have the support of the master and another strong martial arts figure, they can naturally rest with confidence.
Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Zong Jiyuan asked Uncle Ji to arrange Wang Yu to rest in the guest room, while he wanted to go to his room with Zhou Zitong to live.
There are two purposes for doing this, one is to avoid Wang Yu, because in contrast, Zhou Zitong is much more honest, and the other is to plan to learn more about some cases, and people can often remember more details when they are relaxed.
Therefore, despite his dissatisfaction, Wang Yu was driven to the guest room alone, but Zhou Zitong led Zong Jiyuan to his room with joy.
Zhou Zitong's residence is a very spacious suite, which is divided into two rooms, inside and outside, which is a typical bedroom, and the outside room is obviously arranged into a study, with complete tables and chairs, complete pen, ink, paper, and inkstones, and a single bed in the corner.
As soon as he stepped into the door of the room, Zong Jiyuan liked the environment here, although there was no luxury here, it was also elegant, so he looked back at Zhou Zitong,
"Zhou Gongzi, after a busy day, you can go to the inner room to rest, I can rest outside here."
"How's that going to work! No, no,"
Zhou Zitong listened, his face looked very uneasy, and he said continuously,
"Master, you are the benefactor of my Zhou family, how can you be so lazy, please go to the inner room to rest, the villain I am here."
"Alas, I said Zhou Gongzi,"
Zong Jiyuan looked at his flushed face again and said with a smile,
"Master Ben is not being polite to you, it is very likely that I have something to discuss with the servants this night, and it will be inconvenient to live back and forth in the room, so you should go inside and rest with peace of mind."
"Oh...... That's right......"
Zhou Zitong lowered his head, thought about it for a while, and suddenly turned red again.
"Actually, so many things have happened, and the villain can't sleep for a while, can you sit outside here with the master?"
"Hmm...... That's good,"
Hearing his words, Zong Jiyuan couldn't help laughing,
"Coincidentally, there are some details, and I am about to learn more about Zhou Gongzi, so let's come and sit together."
"Uh-huh,"
happily agreed, and sat down with Zong Jiyuan, Zhou Zitong said as if he remembered something,
"However, the villain has another request, master, can you stop calling me 'Zhou Gongzi'? I'm not a 'child', I haven't even made a name for myself yet......"
"Oh,"
Seeing his embarrassed look, Zong Jiyuan really felt very funny and said,
"Yes, then I'll call you Brother Zitong, but I also have one condition, that is, you can't call me Master anymore, just call me Jiyuan."
"Ji, Yuan?"
Zhou Zitong repeated happily and uneasily, nodding heavily,
"Okay, I'll call you Brother Ji Yuan."
"It's better this way, it's much easier to get along,"
Zong Jiyuan also nodded approvingly,
"So, now can you ask Brother Zitong to tell me about the second grandmother of your family?"
