Chapter Forty-Nine: Fu Jiu secretly accompanied him
During dinner, Fu Jiu hurriedly returned to the courtyard with dinner, and it was really embarrassing to stay there.
Xina has returned, although she did not marry Huo Yuqian voluntarily, but she must be weak when the Lord returns home.
Thinking that Huo Yuqian would not come over tonight, she could sleep peacefully.
In Huo Yuqian's room
Xena turned her back to Huo Yuqian and glanced back, Huo Yuqian was taking off his shoes.
Xena turned her head and smiled, and used a wooden spoon to hold the dried petals and make a cup of tea.
"Dry, these days, I see that you are often panting, your face is red and your neck is red, are you on fire?" Xena took her tea and said with concern.
Huo Yuqian nodded, took the flower tea, drank it one sip at a time, and after a while, there seemed to be a clear stream in his heart, and a sense of comfort surged up from the bottom of his heart to his scalp, and he only felt numb and indescribably comfortable.
Huo Yuqian exhaled, as if he was exhaling a mouthful of turbid breath that had been lingering in his stomach.
Looking at his comfortable appearance, the corners of Xena's mouth curled, Huo Yuqian rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Well, drinking some tea has cleared the fire a lot." ”
On the second day, Fu Jiu got up early, and during the meal, he heard that Huo Yuqian was going to leave before noon.
She didn't expect Xena to come to her yard, Xena was very different today, she was wearing a goose-yellow cheongsam, and her curly hair was made into a hand-pushed corrugated head.
"Sister Jiu'er, thank you for taking care of you these days." Xena smiled gently.
Fu Jiu was a little embarrassed when she heard this, and she laughed dryly, "The young lady is serious." ”
"Sister Jiu'er, alas, I really envy you, I am reluctant to let you go to Yunxi." Xena sighed slightly, her words full of envy.
After speaking, she suddenly woke up, and in surprise, she put her hand in front of her mouth, as if she said something that she shouldn't have heard.
Fu Jiu quickly figured out what was going on, Yunxi Province Heartfelt Liquor, Xina's cheongsam......
She frowned slightly, and asked rhetorically, "Young lady, did the young marshal ask you to pretend to be me?" ”
Xena didn't dare to look at her, her eyes wandered, and she raised her eyebrows and said, "What...... What, sister, why do you say that. ”
Fu Jiu's heart was at the bottom, and his eyebrows wrinkled even more, "Young lady, take me with you." ”
His trip was to lure the snake out of the hole, if Huo Yuqian really asked Xena to block the danger for her, how could she let Huo Yuqian do this.
Xena sighed and looked at Fu Jiu with self-reproachful eyes, "Alas, since my sister has already guessed, I won't hide it from you, but I can't help you with your request, after all, my skills are better than yours, so don't worry about me." ”
Seeing that Xena was still thinking about herself, Fu Jiu's heart was more definite that she wanted to go together.
"Young lady, after all, this matter has nothing to do with you, I must go." Fu Jiu's eyes were firm and full of confidence.
Xena bit her lip in embarrassment, "That's okay, but don't tell Qian, I'm afraid he'll blame me." ”
Fu Jiu nodded and smiled with relief.
Xena was going back, she turned around and smiled, her eyes faded from kindness, and a vicious light flashed, if you don't go, how can I plan to kill you......
After a hurried lunch, Huo Yuqian and his entourage prepared to set off, from Jiangcheng to Yunxi Province, the train arrived in eight hours.
This military train was full of Huo Jun, and Fu Jiu was mixed in it.
Huo Yuqian and Xina were in the second high-class car, and she was in the penultimate car, this was the carriage where the kitchen was located, and Xina had explained to those cooks in advance, so Fu Jiu sat on the side.
Seeing people going around, she felt embarrassed, "Well, do you want to help?" Fu Jiu asked.
The cook on the side was very busy, and said with a smile: "Thank you." ”
Fu Jiu smiled and went to help her pick vegetables, and the two of them chatted back and forth.
"Yo, you are also from Shaocheng, I am also from Shaocheng, and the old man of my family has also worked in the Fu family in Shaocheng." The cook said happily.
Shaocheng Fu family! Fu Jiu was slightly surprised, "Girl, you are also surnamed Fu, but what does it have to do with the Fu family?" The cook continued.
Fu Jiu smiled and said lightly: "It's just a coincidence." ”
"Alas, it's a pity to say that Master Fu and Mrs. Fu, the family business just stopped, I heard that the foreigner in the second room took the wine to find a foreigner for testing, and came up with a recipe, and now the Fu family wine is set up in Shaocheng." The cook muttered in distraction, and the movements in her hands stopped.
Hearing this, Fu Jiu was shocked, her second uncle actually started a wine business?!
When it was almost afternoon, Huo Yuqian received a telegram saying that Fu Jiu was missing, and it was the person he left behind before leaving, and he specially instructed them to pay attention to Fu Jiu's safety at all times.
Huo Yuqian's heart rang with an alarm bell, and he waved his hand to Adjutant Liu, "Go and thoroughly inspect the carriage and search for the young lady." ”
At this time, Xena happened to walk in, so Adjutant Liu looked confused, didn't the young lady come in by herself?
"That...... Young marshal? Adjutant Liu's expression was a little ugly, and he asked tentatively.
Huo Yuqian understood his doubts at a glance, "Fu Jiu." He said gloomily.
Adjutant Liu's back straightened, and his expression returned to seriousness, "Yes, young marshal!" ”
After speaking, he quickly slipped out of the room.
Hearing some noise outside and chaotic footsteps, Fu Jiu cautiously looked through the doors and windows and saw that the guards were searching from the carriage in front.
Fu Jiu panicked, afraid that he was going to check her, this has not yet reached Yunxi Province, if Huo Yuqian finds out, he will definitely send her back, thinking of this, she hurriedly retreated.
"Auntie, I have a reluctant request, please help me." Fu Jiu's eyes were full of longing, and he said to the cook in a sincere tone.
It was time for dinner, and everyone else was busy making dinner, for fear of upsetting the young marshal in front, and no one noticed the movement here.
The kitchen door was pushed open, and the guards stepped in, startling the busy cooks.
"Master Jun, what's wrong? Is the young marshal going to eat? Hey, right away, right away. The cook said with a hunch.
The soldier at the head of the guard had a cold face and asked, "Did you see a young lady wearing a cheongsam?" ”
The cook breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately replied: "Yes, yes, I've been sitting here for a few hours, isn't this ......" The cook looked around and rolled his eyes, eh? What about this man?
He smiled innocently, and wiped his flour-stained hand on the apron in front of his stomach to relieve the embarrassment.
The guards glanced at the crowd, exited to close the door, and continued to check the next carriage, Fu Jiu held his breath and listened to the footsteps of the guards in the corridor outside the door returning and leaving after going to the next carriage before daring to relax.
The cook found her a spare pair of clothes and pants from the utility room, and the cheongsam she had changed into in the utility room was stuffed into a basket in the storage room.
Fu Jiu's face was smeared with furnace ash and flour, and the whole face couldn't be seen as Fu Jiu if he didn't look carefully.
She was standing next to the cook at the moment, stirring the flour and noodles in the basin, and Fu Jiu lowered her head and breathed a sigh of relief.
In the next second, the kitchen door was pushed open again, Fu Jiu raised his eyes, and what caught his eye was a pair of military-style black leather boots.
