"What's going on?" Du Xiaomeng looked at the direction where Zhan Qi disappeared, and after muttering something inexplicably, he turned around and continued to greet Ah Shu, who was sitting timidly in place, holding the rice bowl but stopping the chopsticks: "Ah Shu, hurry up and eat!" If you don't eat, the food will be cold! ”

Ah Shu was originally hungry and panicked, but Zhan Qi's presence before made him even more nervous. Although he was a child who grew up in a slum, he had never seen any dignitaries, let alone Zhan Qi, but he could still feel the strong aura on Zhan Qi. When Zhan Qi was present just now, although he knew that it was the one who saved A-Niang, he always felt that if he did anything inappropriate, he would be destroyed by the man who looked very strong and powerful. Therefore, he has been so nervous that he doesn't know where to put it, even if Du Xiaomeng repeatedly picks up vegetables for him and urges him to eat, he doesn't dare to let go of his belly to eat.

However, now that Zhan Qi, the culprit who made him nervous, had left the scene, facing Du Xiaomeng, who had already met several times and had a good-looking smile, his spirit was no longer nervous. Although he was still a little nervous, he nodded at Du Xiaomeng obediently, let go of his belly and ate happily.

The dishes in the dining hall were very delicious, and the two of them ate very happily, and they eliminated a few large bowls of rice in a short time, and they were even more face-saving to stuff all the vegetables on the table into their stomachs, and there was nothing left.

While the two of them were touching their round bellies and drinking tea after dinner and picking their teeth, Zhan Qi came back, followed by a little monk.

Zhan Qi looked at Du Xiaomeng and asked, "Full?" ”

Du Xiaomeng, who was a little full, looked up at him, and replied in a posture of touching his stomach: "It's full." ”

Zhan Qi said, "Since we are full, then let's go back." ”

Du Xiaomeng turned her head to look at Ah Shu beside her, then turned to look at Zhan Qi, and asked uneasily, "Go back?" What about Aunt Jiang and Ah Shu? ”

Zhan Qi patiently explained: "You can't heal and save people, and staying here won't help much." Although Aunt Jiang's injuries were not light, the abbot had already taken care of all the broken bones for her and gave her medicine. The abbot said that she was now fine, and that she would recover after a few days of recuperation. ”

Du Xiaomeng still said uncomfortably: "However, Aunt Jiang has injuries on her body and is unable to move......

"You can rest assured." Zhan Qi interrupted Du Xiaomeng's words, "I have already told the abbot to let Aunt Jiang and her mother and son stay here, and leave after Aunt Jiang's injuries have healed." The abbot also asked a mother-in-law who worked as a helper in the hall to take care of her temporarily until the mother and son left Koganji. So you don't have to worry about it, right? ”

With Zhan Qi making such thoughtful arrangements, Du Xiaomeng felt that she really had no need to worry.

Zhan Qi's gaze turned to Ah Shu, and said, "The abbot has already transferred Aunt Jiang to the ordinary guest room, Ah Shu, you can go with this little master." ”

Ah Shu, who was so nervous that he didn't know where to put it, heard Zhan Qi talking to him, his buttocks jumped up from the table as if he was being burned, stood up straight, lowered his head and whispered, and then quickly raised his feet and walked over to the little monk standing behind Zhan Qi.

After settling Aunt Jiang and Ah Shu, it was not too early.

The monks in the temple lived a peaceful life of going to bed early and getting up early, and when Du Xiaomeng and Zhan Qi left Hongyuan Temple, the temple was already quiet. There was no sign of the road leading to the temple gate, except for a lantern a few meters apart, which swayed gently in the night breeze, emitting a dim yellow light.

Taking advantage of this moment when he and Zhan Qi were alone, Du Xiaomeng opened his mouth to break the silence around him and asked, "General, can I ask you a favor?" ”

Her voice was not loud, but it was particularly clear in the tranquil surroundings, especially the title "General". Zhan Qi, who was walking in front, stopped, turned his head to look at her, and waited for her to say the following. According to past experience, every time this little woman calls him "General" in a good voice, it must be no good!

Du Xiaomeng's eyes stayed on Zhan Qi's face, paying attention to the look on his face, and said with a good attitude and a smile: "Didn't the general know Old Master Chen from Peach Blossom Street?" I don't know if I can ask Old Master Chen to help Ah Shu find a school? ”

Sure enough, as Zhan Qi expected. No wonder I was courteous to him in the dining hall just now, no wonder I saw her smile so familiar just now, it was simply the dog-legged face when I usually asked for him! He was so sluggish just now that he didn't see it, and thought that she really cared about whether she was hungry or not, it turned out that what she did was something else!

Zhan Qi pulled down a stinky face, and replied to Du Xiaomeng with a very bad attitude: "Old Master Chen doesn't care about the school's acceptance of children. With that, he turned around and strode forward.

Touching a hard nail, Du Xiaomeng was not discouraged, she hurriedly ran up to catch up with Zhan Qi, reached out to pull his arm, but when she just hit his hand, she suddenly remembered the previous tragic experience, she immediately retracted her hand, sped up her pace and ran in front of Zhan Qi, and said anxiously: "Even if Master Chen doesn't care, but General, you know a lot of people, you will always know other people who can manage it, right?" ”

Zhan Qi's footsteps showed no signs of slowing down. He didn't even look at Du Xiaomeng, and when he bypassed her, he squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "I don't know!" ”

Du Xiaomeng chased after him from behind and continued: "General, you can help!" As long as you are willing to help Ah Shu, I will definitely thank you well! ”

Zhan Qi suddenly stopped, and Du Xiaomeng couldn't hold back and bumped into his back all of a sudden.

The body that didn't stand firm was grabbed by Zhan Qi with one hand, and then, I heard Zhan Qi's very unhappy voice asking, "Who are they?" Do you want you to put down your body and beg me in a low voice? He didn't forget that she Du Xiaomeng was more proud than anything else when she didn't ask for him, and she could spray him all over his face with blood if she didn't agree with him.

Du Xiaomeng looked at Zhan Qi's face that showed a little sign of anger, touched her head and said with a smile: "Actually, I don't know Aunt Jiang well, but I saw them a few times when I went to Liulipo before, and Aunt Jiang is a good person, she has helped Miss and Aunt a lot......"

"It's for the Lin family's young lady again?" Zhan Qi's anger rose when he heard the last sentence. For the sake of her young lady, she can marry him, she can please him in every way, and now she is begging him for an unfamiliar person, just because that person has helped her young lady! All her kindness to him and weakness to him are just for the young lady of the Lin family! So what is he in her heart? If there is no Miss Lin family, in her eyes Du Xiaomeng, I am afraid that he is not even a grain of sand on the ground, right?

Zhan Qi couldn't bear to be angry with Du Xiaomeng. He stared at Du Xiaomeng's smiling face and asked word by word: "If Aunt Jiang hadn't helped your young lady, wouldn't you have come to ask me for help?" ”

Although Zhan Qi was enduring it, Du Xiaomeng could still see that he was angry, and he was not ordinary angry. She heard some clues from Zhan Qi's words, she deliberately stared at Zhan Qi with wide eyes, and said confidently: "Of course not!" I didn't just help Aunt Jiang because she helped Miss. Aunt Jiang is a good person, but she is still a poor person, her family members all died of leprosy, and she was also disabled because of leprosy. Ah Shu is the only relative in the world who depends on her, she doesn't want her son to be as big as her and can't read a word, she hopes that her son can live better after a little knowledge, so she thought about sending Ah Shu to the school to read. Even the poorest people should have their right to pursue hope, and it is wrong for them to have hope in their hearts? ”

As he spoke, Du Xiaomeng's eyes, which were originally very bright, dimmed, and his voice lowered: "There is no class in education, there is no high or low in education, shouldn't everyone be equal in front of education, and everyone has the right to receive education?" However, because they were poor, because Ah Shu had a leper woman's mother-in-law, the school turned Ah Shu away, even if Aunt Jiang knelt down to them for a few days and nights, they reluctantly agreed to let Ah Shu enter the school, but the price was to give Ah Shu three taels of silver for tuition before Ah Shu entered the school. It was for the three taels of silver, for a hope, that Aunt Jiang would go up the mountain to collect medicine, and she almost fell to her death. ”

After listening to Du Xiaomeng, Zhan Qi looked at her directly, and couldn't see any expression on his face.

Du Xiaomeng glanced up at him, didn't entangle him anymore, just said: "If the general can't help, then I can't be reluctant anymore, what happened just now is rude." After speaking, she owed, did not hide the lost and sad expression on her face, and slowly walked past Zhan Qi's side and walked forward.

This move is to retreat as advance.

Although Zhan Qi has a bad temper, he is also a hard-mouthed and soft-hearted person, and the sensational words she just said should be able to affect him. However, he had resolutely refused to help just now, and with his awkward character, it would not work without giving him a ladder for him to climb over.

Zhan Qi hesitated in the back, he was hesitating whether to tell Du Xiaomeng whether to find the kind of master who taught children, Yu Tianzheng had a lot more ways than him. The master who was invited back by the Rui Wangfu to teach Yu Xiaorui was the former head of the most famous school in the capital, and the current head was the son of the old master.

Du Xiaomeng walked very slowly, and her waist was very straight. As she walked, she counted in her heart, and when she counted to ten, Zhan Qi caught up from behind and shouted to her: "Wait a minute!" ”

Once again, the treacherous scheme succeeded. Du Xiaomeng turned her head as if she were innocent, put on a puzzled expression, and asked, "What else does the general do?" ”

Zhan Qi turned his gaze to the side and said, "I'll help you find a way." ”

In the end, he automatically filtered out Yu Tianzheng, a good brother, and finally forgot what he had said to himself not long ago that if he helped Du Xiaomeng again, he would be a bastard who wrote his name upside down.

However, writing the name upside down doesn't seem to have anything to do with the bastard, and it's a good thing to forget it. Zhan Qi just couldn't stand Du Xiaomeng's soft treatment of him, even if he knew that she would come to him if she had something to do, he still hooked him easily. Since this is the case, I don't want to always be the king who writes his name upside down in the future, so it's better to forget it.

Knowing that Zhan Qi was willing to help, Du Xiaomeng was very excited. She jumped up happily, regardless of her demeanor and didn't care about the difference between men and women, she wanted to give Zhan Qi a hug, but at the moment when she was about to hug her, the smile on her face suddenly froze, and the movements of her body were also stiffly frozen, and then she quickly took several big steps back.

Zhan Qi was still thinking about whether to avoid this and keep an appropriate distance from Du Xiaomeng, but he didn't expect that without him making any action, Du Xiaomeng would avoid him first, and he would stay far away.

Du Xiaomeng's actions made him scratch his head, and he couldn't help but ask in a displeased tone: "Why are you standing so far?" ”

Du Xiaomeng subconsciously touched his shoulder and said, "I don't want to be slapped by you again." ”

Zhan Qi's face immediately became a little ugly. He awkwardly explained, "I just forgot that you were following me. Now I know you're there and won't do anything to you. ”

Du Xiaomeng looked at him with a distrustful gaze, and in the end, he moved his steps to get closer to him, but still maintained a distance of at least one meter.

Seeing her palpitations, Zhan Qi didn't want to say anything more, so he kept such a safe distance from her and walked out of the Hongyuan Temple one after another.
