Chapter 014: Unwelcome Guests

As the owner, the peach blossom shopkeeper must greet everyone. He raised his glass and stood up, and said: "Today is a good day, the epidemic situation in Xicheng has improved under the treatment of the seven immortal elders, and I, as a member of Yongle City, have thanked the seven immortal elders here! ”

The peach blossom shopkeeper drank it all very boldly, and poured himself another glass, Ye Tao, as the senior brother of Wuzhi, took the lead in standing up and toasted the peach blossom shopkeeper.

Zhao Yi looked at the wine, and said without waiting for Ye Tao to drink: "Can Ye Shaoxia touch this wine?"

An unintentional word, but it can warm people's hearts, Ye Tao smiled and said: "Miss Zhao is worried, Wuzhi disciples can dip in wine"

On the other side, Wu Nian also smiled happily: "Miss Zhao, the Buddhist family still has the words 'wine and meat through the intestines, and the Buddha stays in his heart', Wuzhi doesn't have so many rules, and Senior Brother Wu was drunk by us when he got married." ”

Wu Nian is still a little happy when he mentions this matter, and the brotherhood is deep!

Zhao Yi bowed her head and said, "That's good!" As she spoke, she also got up and raised her wine glass and said, "Sister Peach Blossom, please!

Everyone also got up and raised their glasses and drank them all.

Putting down the wine glass, the whole table sat down one by one, and Yun Ping said solemnly: "Senior brother, just before you came, several of our junior brothers drank a cup of tea to refresh themselves, senior brother, you should also have a cup." ”

Hearing this, the good words also said: "That's right, senior brother should also have a drink!"

On the other side, Impermanence is already pouring tea for Ye Tao, this senior brother has close cooperation!

Zhao Yi chuckled in his heart, Ye Tao really didn't know about it, but someone wanted him to know!

Thinking about it, Zhao Yi looked at Ye Tao and said anxiously: "This tea is cold, let's not drink it!" looked at Impermanence again, he seemed to be threatened, naughtily stuck out his tongue, and directly turned his head away from looking at her.

Wu Nian said again, "Miss Zhao, don't worry, the senior brother is in good health, so he won't have an accident because of a cup of tea." ”

"It's okay, Miss Zhao, I also like to drink tea. Ye Tao raised his glass and drank as he spoke.

Zhao Yi still wanted to say something, but after Ye Tao's actions, he forgot what he wanted to say, and watched him drink that cup of tea.

Zhao Yi cried bitterly in his heart, Ye Tao, Ye Tao, you drank that cup of tea is your suffering, and it is my embarrassment!

These spoofed Ye Tao's junior brothers looked at Ye Tao's expression with anticipation, Zhao Yi didn't forget to pay attention to it, and saw that Ye Tao's teacup had not been put down and had already frowned slightly, the corners of his mouth moved slightly, and the word "bitter" was written on his face.

Several juniors couldn't hold back their laughter. Especially the impermanence is the most heartless lying on the table and laughing,

Wu Nian said without a word: "Senior brother, you are finally, finally rectified by us, once"

Impermanence asked with great interest: "What does Senior Brother think of the taste?"

Ye Tao thought about it for a while, Zhao Yi was very curious, in this case, he could say it with only one bitter word, what did he think?

"The entrance is fragrant, the throat is bitter, and the tea leaves are too much, so it is not advisable to drink too much. Ye Tao put the teacup on the table, although it was a very simple sentence, it made Zhao Yi's tense strings relax suddenly, and he inexplicably lost his nervousness.

Ye Tao really tasted it, and also told the reason for the bitterness. But Ye Tao's next sentence made Zhao Yi's whole person tremble, only to see Ye Tao look at everyone and ask, "Who made this tea?"

Zhao Yi's eyes also hurriedly swept around everyone, and found that they were all staring at him, Ye Tao also knew, under the eyes of the whole table, Zhao Yi was already ashamed and embarrassed, and smiled at Ye Tao embarrassedly.

Ye Tao smiled very well, he didn't laugh easily, but every time he laughed, he showed his white eight teeth, and the strange thing was that Zhao Yi would be obsessed with his smile every time.

"Miss Zhao just didn't grasp the amount of tea, just brew more to get acquainted!

Zhao Yi looked at the teapot and nodded with Ye Tao, although she was embarrassed in person, Ye Tao's words still comforted her a lot.

The peach blossom shopkeeper played his role as the proprietress and spoke, "Okay, okay, this is the end of the tea tasting business, you spoof little fairy chief, use your brain for a day, eat more"

Saying that the peach blossom shopkeeper took the lead in overeating, everyone also moved their chopsticks, seeing that they were all eating with relish, Zhao Yi also wanted to taste it.

After eating happily for a while, a guy hurriedly came from outside, standing in front of everyone, out of breath, and the peach blossom shopkeeper turned around and chattered a few words.

"Da Li, several Immortal Elders and Miss Zhao are all eating, what's wrong with you?

Da Li pointed to the door, but he was incoherent and didn't say a word. After a while, I heard someone shouting outside the door: "Is there anyone here? Girl, I'm here." ”

This annoying voice, Zhao Yi can naturally hear who it is without looking back, isn't this Jia Zhengting coming tomorrow?

After Jia Zhengting's voice came, people came, and when he saw Zhao Yi from afar, he smiled, strode over, and followed by six red-clothed guards.

"Yo, there are so many people! Exactly, who is in charge here?" Jia Zhengting glanced at the people on the table.

The people at the table were very inexplicable about this uninvited guest, Zhao Yi only thought that this was the person she provoked, so she solved it herself, and walked over from her seat, her tone was cold.

"Didn't Master Jia promise me to come back tomorrow? aren't you afraid that you will be punished by me if you break the contract?"

Jia Zhengting didn't realize Zhao Yi's anger, turned his head and beckoned to the red-clothed guard, "Bring it." ”

The attendant presented him with a box of heavy things, Jia Zhengting opened it, and the golden light was dazzling in an instant, so that the guests eating in the tower were red-eyed, Zhao Yi blocked the dazzling light with his sleeves, and after a while, he found that the box was full of gold, silver and jewelry, Zhao Yi's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he didn't like this shining thing in his heart, so he quickly closed the box.

Displeasure asked, "What is Lord Jia doing?"

Jia Zhengting was triumphant, "Girl, you said that I was not sincere enough today, and now I, Jia, will express my sincerity to you, I wonder if the girl can move to Jiafu now?"

If you think you are a smart person, you can see that Zhao Yi has murderous in her eyes, but Jia Zhengting just didn't see it. Zhao Yi smiled forcefully, and said slowly: "If Master Jia thinks that this money is excessive, it is better to take it to Xicheng for disaster relief! ”

Jia Zhengting took Zhao Yi's words as a joke, laughed wantonly to himself, and sneered: "What do those poor sour ghosts in Xicheng have to do with me, my Jia's money is only given to the person I like, girl, as long as you go back to Jiafu with me, you can spend the money of Jiafu as you like!"

Jia Zhengting's treacherous smile made Zhao Yi's heart tremble, and his steps quietly moved back a few times, Jia Zhengting realized that Zhao Yi retreated, stretched out his claws and wanted to pull her, but he was suddenly grabbed by his wrist with his other hand, which made him grin in pain and angry.

"Who is so bold and dares to make a move against this mansion!" The guards behind Jia Zhengting pounced up, and when Ye Tao's fierce gaze swept over, he didn't dare to act rashly, and he didn't dare to move forward with a smile.

Ye Tao deliberately increased his strength, Jia Zhengting bared his teeth again, and roared at the guards behind him: "Are you all blind?

The guards hesitated again, after all, they were still no match for the master's eyes, and they all rushed over at once, a light purple light flowed through Ye Tao's fingertips, the guards were blocked by the invisible wall, but they couldn't get close to it, Jia Zhengting was angry in his heart, it hurt in his hands, and he hated Ye Tao so much that his teeth itched, and he looked like a monkey was anxious, and scolded these guards in his heart for being useless.

Ye Tao was calm and calm, and said word by word: "The gold and silver mountains of your mansion are not as good as the green mountains of Mingyue Tower, since Miss Zhao is unwilling to go to the mansion, please go back to the house!"

Ye Tao's words seemed polite, but his tone was not emotional, and Zhao Yi couldn't guess his thoughts.

"Okay, okay... The hero can say anything, okay, let go, let go first!"

Jia Zhengting was almost pleading, but it was very perfunctory, the corners of Ye Tao's mouth raised a slight arc, and he smiled, no matter how he looked at it, it didn't look like a mockery, his smile never seemed to have demeaning feelings for others, full of warm smile and his delicate and handsome face were synonymous with warm spring.

Ye Tao let go, Jia Zhengting retracted into the group of guards, shook his sleeves, straightened his collar, and made a high-minded appearance.

"Dare to disrespect the people, who are you? Dare to be disrespectful to this mansion, do you know who this mansion is? Dare to prevent this mansion from taking people away?"

Ye Tao said calmly: "Master Jia, whether you have a lot of money or a lot of power, Ye Tao walks the world, not afraid of big money, not afraid of power, if you have any dissatisfaction, just come to Ye Tao, don't want to touch anyone in Mingyue Tower." ”

Zhao Yi's eyes were hot when she heard this, this person has a lot of similarities with her, but the differences are so obvious, three or two sentences moved her very much, it turned out that being protected was such a warm feeling, the corners of her eyes were slightly hot, Zhao Yi burst into tears, turned her head and secretly wiped it.

"You...... You ......" Jia Zhengting's face was so angry that his face turned pale, but the guards behind him still didn't dare to make a move on Ye Tao, Jia Zhengting hated that iron could not become steel, gritted his teeth and looked at Zhao Yi, and said nonsense: "Girl, you are alone outside, don't want your family to have an accident, if you don't want to, just be obedient!"

Ye Tao's face changed suddenly, and he looked at Zhao Yi, as if he was embarrassed and pity. Impermanence smashed his fist on the table, and said angrily: "It's really vicious!"

The shopkeeper of Peach Blossom walked over very excitedly, "Lord Jia, you have to be forgiving and forgiving, has your conscience been extinguished for a girl's family like this?"

Zhao Yi's heart was wrapped in warmth again, and he smiled and said: "Sister Peach Blossom, Ye Shaoxia, you don't have to listen to his nonsense, I ......" Zhao Yi didn't know how to say it, but he couldn't tell the truth, so he said, "It's an orphan." ”

As she spoke, she felt that the air was quiet, not only Ye Tao and the shopkeeper Peach Blossom, but also the people at the table looked at her, at this moment Zhao Yi seemed to see what Jingyuan often said, "They don't care about you, they just pity you"

But Zhao Yi is willing to believe that they all care about him.

Ye Tao said to Jia Zhengting in a cold tone: "Lord Jia, when we are still willing to let you leave, let's leave quickly!"

Jia Zhengting was also shocked by the sudden anger of impermanence, Ye Tao went down the steps, and went down, pouting, seemingly dissatisfied, and did not dare to speak more, and left Mingyue Tower surrounded by guards.

After Jia Zhengting's trouble, everyone's mood was a little low, everyone else had to get up early tomorrow morning, and they all went to rest early after eating, the peach blossom shopkeeper and Ye Tao were still chatting on the table, and Zhao Yi didn't listen to what to talk about, so he cleaned up with the cooks.

In the kitchen, Zhao Yi was carelessly washing the dishes, and vaguely heard the voices of Peach Blossom and Ye Tao, but he still didn't hear what the two of them were discussing. Jia Zhengting can make trouble for a while, there will be a second time, Zhao Yi thought about whether to let Jingyuan help her distract this person's attention.

"Miss Zhao, don't be in a daze, you can wash this knife by the way!" Xiao Zhang said in a joking tone, and Zhao Yi habitually responded: "Okay", but he didn't pay attention to what he said.

The four fingers didn't feel much when they touched the cold knife surface, until they slashed through the sharp blade, "Stone" The stimulation of the fingertips spread all over the nerves, Zhao Yi retracted her hand suddenly, gritted her teeth and didn't scream, but her body trembled, and she saw that the blood on the four fingers except for the thumb was red, and the blood dripped into the basin, and the pain spread, Zhao Yi panicked in her heart, took out the knife in the basin, put her hand into the water, and wanted to wash away the bloodstains, and after a while, the whole basin of water was dyed red, which made her more and more frightened, took out her hand, clenched her fist, did not let the blood flow, and poured out the whole basin of water, and shouted to Xiao Zhang with a strong pretense: " Xiao Zhang, people have three urgency, you can deal with the tableware yourself"

Saying that, Zhao Yi hurriedly went out from the side door of the kitchen, ignoring Xiao Zhang's reaction, and when he went out, he heard Xiao Zhang's honest reply: "Oh, okay Miss Zhao." ”

Zhao Yi ran to the pond in the backyard of Mingyue Building, only to feel that the slimy blood seemed to be stained with his hands, and his fingers were stiff and couldn't stretch out, so he squatted down and put his hands into the water, and kept stirring the cold pond water, but the water washed away the bloodstains, and there was blood flowing out, and the wound could not heal at all.

Zhao Yi herself knows that it is not a problem with water, her physique is like this, the blood is hot, once there is a wound, the blood can't be coagulated, and it can't be stopped.

When Zhao Yi was flustered, he heard someone shouting in panic: "Miss Zhao, take out your hand!"

This voice is very familiar, Zhao Yi looked back, Ye Tao had already come to the front, seeing that it was him, Zhao Yi's heart suddenly calmed down a lot, Ye Tao took out her hand soaked in water, Zhao Yi also stood up, but his eyes did not leave Ye Tao's face, maybe his assassin's nervous expression was concern.

"Water ice at night, Miss Zhao, you have a wound on your hand, you should not touch the water"

Saying that, Ye Tao hurriedly took out a bottle of white powder medicine from his waist and sprinkled it on Zhao Yi's wound, and bandaged it with white gauze, bandaging it very carefully.

Zhao Yi was a little sad, and said, "Ye Shaoxia, am I very worried?"

Ye Tao raised his eyes and looked at her very strangely, and comforted her with a smile: "Miss Zhao, don't say that."

"Look at me, such a big person, I can't cook, and I can't bandage my wounds. Zhao Yi said that he felt ridiculous, and he really didn't know too much.

Ye Tao said softly: "Isn't Miss Zhao learning? If there is something you don't know much about, just ask the shopkeeper of Peach Blossom, or ask the next one!"

Seeing that he had bandaged it, Zhao Yi withdrew his hand, remained silent, looked at the gauze quietly, and answered the question, "The bandaging is so good!"

Ye Tao paused for a moment and said: "Actually, Miss Zhao doesn't have to be restrained, she can say whatever she wants, and do whatever she wants, just like when she first met the girl." ”

Zhao Yi seemed to have been poured a bowl of awakening soup, thinking back to that day, he suddenly felt ridiculous, when did he become so weak, thinking about it, he was a little motivated, and said that he would take his Qingling Sword?

Seeing that he didn't have the Qingling Sword in his hand, Zhao Yi raised his eyes and looked at him, he was very calm.

Zhao Yidao: "Then you don't want to call yourself under every day, and I'm not on top." ”

Ye Tao was frightened by his words, and after a while, he smiled and said, "Okay!"

Zhao Yi was very satisfied and walked slowly to the room, and Ye Tao walked with her.

There was a slight night breeze, Ye Tao reminded: "Miss Zhao, Yongle City has become cold, and there will be more gusts of wind in the future, remember to add more clothes." ”

Zhao Yi was also happy, and said to him: "Ye Shaoxia don't worry, my physique is different from ordinary people since I was a child, my body is a little hot, and it won't be cold in winter." ”

Ye Tao was very puzzled by what Zhao Yi said, and he would be suspicious. "Even so, Miss Zhao should also pay attention to keeping warm,"

Saying that, he raised his eyes and looked at the night sky, and said, "It's a little late, Miss Zhao rested early, in... I'll take my leave. ”

It's still used to calling yourself "down", right! But it changed really quickly, Zhao Yi was secretly happy in his heart, nodded and let Ye Tao go.

The next day, the sun came out unexpectedly, the sun was just right, Zhao Yi picked up some clothes and went to the backyard to wash in the washroom, this washroom is not very big, but it is good to attract a canal in front of the water room, you can fetch water at any time, and the open space outside is also ready with empty barrels and tubs at any time, which is much better than washing in the yard where she lived before.

Seeing that many of the younger sisters in Mingyue Tower were also there, they were all taking advantage of the sunny weather to wash their clothes. Zhao Yi greeted them, put all the clothes he brought into an empty wooden basin, and went to fetch water, and the original raccoon dog in green clothes saw the wound covered by Zhao Yi's fingers, and came over to talk: "Miss Zhao is still injured, do you have to wash clothes?"

Zhao Yi poured water into the wooden basin and said: "Some small injuries, not in the way, taking advantage of today's good weather, washing the clothes that should be washed is the right thing."

Yuan Lixi felt that it made sense, but looking at the injury on her hand, she said, "Then let's wash Miss Zhao, you rest first!"

Zhao Yi raised his eyes and glanced at the original raccoon, and chuckled: "The original raccoon, you have to wash the clothes for the guests every day, and mine won't trouble you!"

Zhao Yi sat down and rubbed it on the washboard like his sisters.

Tilting his little head and saying strangely: "However, Miss Zhao and the seven immortals who have lived in the Mingyue Building for a long time are the only ones who have lived in the Mingyue Tower, but the seven immortals don't need us to wash them,"

At this time, Zhao Yi was taken aback again, he was really principled, he didn't touch anything to others, and he looked at these people differently in his heart.

"They are so busy that they don't want your help, I know how the idlers are embarrassed to let their sisters help me!" Zhao Yi laughed.

A few girls couldn't twist it and went on their own. After a while, they all said goodbye to Zhao Yi one by one, and Zhao Yi waved his hand to say goodbye.

After washing for more than half an hour, I can finally wring out the water droplets to dry.

I don't know who stood on this shelf, it was a head higher than her, Zhao Yi had to find a stool to step on, and then straightened the quilt cover that was hung on the side, and there was a "creaking" sound from the stool under his feet.

Zhao Yiton felt that his body was unbalanced, and he cast a spell and jumped backwards to retreat, and when he landed smoothly, he saw that the stool was burned by a fire.

Zhao Yi's eyes lit up, he turned his head to look at the fake stone behind him, a smile hooked up at the corner of his mouth, and he smiled softly: "Come out!"

Jing Yuan poked her head out from behind the fake stone, her big curved eyes were as tender as water, and the dhara flower mark on her eyebrows was still so bewitching.

Jingyuan smiled brightly and quipped: "Our eldest sister is the great protector above 10,000 people under one person, and I don't know how many guards and maids serve you every day, how did you get to Danzhou in this world, and she cooks and washes clothes!"

Zhao Yiden said angrily: "What do you still say, you are plotting against your sister and me behind your back, and you are not afraid that I will clean you up!"

After Zhao Yi leaned over and pulled Jingyuan out of the fake stone by the shoulder, Jingyuan suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, this shoulder has always been her most sensitive part, and when she was caught, she felt itchy and laughed out of tears, and then hurriedly begged Zhao Yi for mercy.

"Ahhehe, my good sister, you spare me, I don't dare to sneak attack you again, next time it's okay......! My sister let it go!"

Jingyuan is laughing and crying, and it is really pitiful at first glance. Zhao Yi hurriedly let go, and Jingyuan was busy grateful, as if she had been amnesty.

Zhao Yi went to twist the water accumulated in the corners of his clothes again. Jingyuan walked far away very acquaintedly, Zhao Yi saw Jingyuan strolling by the water, and said, "Jingyuan, come and help me!"

Jingyuan looked at the fish in the canal, and suddenly got carried away, and was shouted by Zhao Yi, and her mind was confused.

"Uh, oh, good!" Jing Yuan followed Zhao Yi alone, twisting a thick blanket.

But in a moment, Jing Yuan's hands were a little red from ice, Jing Yuan looked at her hands distressedly, and complained, "What is this?"

Zhao Yi is also very comfortable doing these things, seeing Jingyuan like this, she can only smile, Jingyuan said sourly: "I heard the words of those little girls just now, eldest sister, since you do these rough chores and don't let them help, then leave it all to you to do it yourself, if you don't think these are enough for you to exercise, just wash the seven Wuzhi people together!"
