Chapter 271: Strange Man
After coming out of Chengnan Music Place, although Tang Siyue's spirit looked much better, her face was very red.
Wen Jin helped her and hired a carriage on the side of the road.
When she was dazed, Tang Siyue suddenly grabbed Wen Jin's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, thank you!"
Wen Jin nodded, letting her pass out on her shoulder.
β¦β¦
Outside the city, there were many new wild fruits in the woods in the back mountains of Wujia Village, Zhao Xiaomei was thinking about it in the yard for several days, and while Wen Zhi was not at home, Zhao Xiaomei sneaked out of the yard.
Wen Zhi told her before that it was dangerous in the mountains and let her stay at home obediently.
Although she didn't listen to him and ran out secretly, she kept the phrase "danger on the mountain" in mind, and she didn't go up the mountain, but only picked some wild fruits on the mountainside behind the house!
Zhao Xiaomei took down the vacant bamboo pole used to dry clothes in the yard, put it on his shoulder, and excitedly came to the forest halfway up the mountain.
The forests here are not as dense as those on the mountains, but the branches are full of fresh and green fruits.
Zhao Xiaomei lifted the bamboo pole and hit it hard, and the fruit fell down.
Zhao Xiaomei threw away the bamboo pole with a smile, covered her head and hurriedly ran to the side, and waited for the fruit to fall to the ground before she walked over to pick it up.
That's enough fruit to eat for days!
Zhao Xiaomei looked at the fresh and dripping fruit in his arms, and only felt that he was speechless, and did not pay any attention to a crumbling fruit on the branch above his head.
"Clickββ!"
A slight sound came from overhead, and the stem of the fruit could not support its own weight, and finally fell off guard.
Zhao Xiaomei only felt a gust of wind coming from behind her, and when she looked back, there was a man wearing a hood behind her.
He lifted a hand and placed it above her head.
Zhao Xiaomei was so frightened that she subconsciously took a step back, but because her footsteps were too hurried, she accidentally tripped over the hem of her skirt, and in a panic, she grabbed the young man's two hands.
To be precise, it was the young man who reached out and grabbed her so that she wouldn't fall.
"Are you alright?" He pulled lightly, allowing Zhao Xiaomei to stand firmly.
Listening to his voice, he was a very young man.
Zhao Xiaomei shook her head, looking at him a little stunned, listening to his tone, she couldn't detect his malice.
The young man withdrew the hand that had been placed above her head, and saw that he was clutching a green fruit, the one that had just fallen from the tree.
It turned out that he suddenly appeared because he was worried that the fruit would hit her!
"Thank you!" Zhao Xiaomei smiled sweetly at him, I don't know why, it was obviously just the first time she saw this person, but she was very relieved about this person.
The young man handed her the fruit and told her, "Be careful in the future!"
Zhao Xiaomei took the fruit and nodded vigorously.
She thought the young man was leaving, but who knew that he actually squatted down and lifted his robe, and helped her pick up the fruits that had been scattered from his arms when she had just fallen.
His every move made Zhao Xiaomei feel that he was not a stranger who suddenly appeared, but a companion who picked fruits with her, so natural and so trusting.
He glanced at the house not far away and said, "Where do you live, I'm just going down the mountain to help you send it over."
So naturally, Zhao Xiaomei nodded.
The young man entered the yard, put the fruit into the bamboo basket on the courtyard road, looked at Zhao Xiaomei and said, "Little girl, be careful in the future, I'm leaving."
"Wait a minute!" Zhao Xiaomei ran to him and stretched out his hand to stop him, "My name is Zhao Xiaomei." β
When she said that, Zhao Xiaomei regretted it a little, in fact, she wanted to ask the man's name, but she felt that it was so abrupt and impolite, so she had to say her name.
The young man nodded, "I remember." β
Zhao Xiaomei watched him leave the yard, and after walking a few steps, he turned back to look at her.
Zhao Xiaomei waved his hand happily, and he turned around and left again.
Until Wen Zhi came back, Zhao Xiaomei sat at the door and recalled what had just happened.
When he heard it, he saw the fruit in the bamboo basket at a glance, and hurriedly stepped forward to make sure that Zhao Xiaomei was okay.
"Miss Zhao, didn't I tell you not to go up the mountain?" He squatted in front of Zhao Xiaomei a little helplessly, looked at her and said.
He knew that she was a lively girl, and let her stay in this dark house all day long, and she could endure to go out until today, and she had done her best.
It seems that it is time for him to discuss with the young lady the placement of Miss Zhao.
Zhao Xiaomei smiled: "I didn't go up the mountain, I picked those fruits in the woods behind the house."
Wen Zhi knew that she was well-behaved, but he still didn't feel at ease, and scared her: "In the past, the people in the village liked to hunt in the mountains, and laid a lot of animal traps, but later the villagers moved away in a hurry, and some of the animal traps didn't have time to take them away, so it's still too dangerous for you to go out alone."
Zhao Xiaomei knew the power of the beast clip, and she was a little scared, but thinking of what had just happened, she was not so afraid.
Wen Zhi saw that this girl was not quite right, and knocked on the side, and finally got out of her mouth what had just happened.
Listening to her description, the person was able to appear next to her in between breaths and catch the apple falling from the top of her head, which showed that the person was very skillful.
Such a person suddenly appeared in this kind of place, which made him have to be vigilant, but he really didn't do anything, and helped Miss Zhao send the fruit back, is he really just a passerby?
A few days passed in a blink of an eye, Tang Siyue's illness was basically cured, and Wen Jin felt that the time had come, so he came to Mingyue Courtyard again.
"Sister-in-law is here!" Seeing Wen Jin enter the courtyard, Tang Siyue greeted him happily.
When the maids in the yard saw it, they were amazed.
Although the young lady's rescue of the third young lady is obvious to everyone, they think that according to the temper of the third young lady, they may have to fight with the young lady for a long time!
The young lady didn't come in the past few days, and they thought that the young lady was afraid of the third young lady, but they didn't expect the young lady to "take" the third young lady so quickly.
Even the three young ladies who are so difficult to associate with are polite to the young lady, it seems that the rumors that the young lady is a blessed person are really true!
Wen Jin followed her into the house.
Tang Siyue looked at Wen Jin and said nervously: "Sister-in-law won't be here for a few days, but there is news from the flower musician today?"
Wen Jin nodded, "But this time we won't go to Chengnan Music Place." β
"I can do it all." Tang Siyue didn't think much about it.
Wen Jin glanced at her clothes a few times and said, "Let's try to avoid people's eyes and ears when we go out of the house, I think your clothes last time were good."
Tang Siyue nodded, took out the clothes from last time from the closet, and combed her hair in the same bun as last time.
She turned around in front of Wen Jin and said, "Sister-in-law, see what else is wrong?"
Wen Jin shook his head.
The two went out of Chenwang's Mansion together, only to see a carriage parked at the gate of Chenwang's Mansion, and it was Chen Fansheng who was sitting outside the carriage.
"Is Big Brother going too?" Tang Siyue looked at Wen Jin and asked.
