Three days later, it was the day of the funeral, early in the morning, a long group of people came out of the Yuan Mansion and went to the west mountain of the city, where there was the mausoleum of the Yuan Mansion, where Yuan An's parents were buried.

Hu Man finally saw what it means to send the prime minister on a ten-mile long street, but here he was replaced by a general, which is enough to see his popular feelings, but unfortunately, such a good general was still buried in the power struggle.

Ordinary people can't enter the royal mausoleum, Hu Manwuzhan and Su Lijiu were waiting for him to come out, and it took a long time to see Yuan An walking back, probably the last goodbye, and stayed in front of the grave for a while.

Several people went down the mountain together, and Yuan'an, who has always been gentle and elegant, didn't even have a smile in the past few days, which made people sigh: "Martial arts, follow me to the army in a while."

Wu Zhan nodded and looked at Hu Man: "That vine ......"

Su Lijiu said he didn't have to worry: "I've already brought people."

Sure enough, after going down the mountain, a woman in front of the carriage with a high ponytail, dressed in black, and wearing a sword came over and knelt down on one knee: "Childe."

Su Lijiu nodded: "In the future, you will follow Miss Hu, she will be your master."

"Huh?" Hu Man looked at Su Lijiu suspiciously: "It's just a few days of personal protection, and it's not a master."

Su Lijiu smiled and didn't care: "One subordinate, I can still afford to send it, one servant does not serve the second master, she is a good one, and you will use more places in the future."

Hu Man couldn't excuse herself, and personally helped her up: "What's your name?"

"Night." The woman replied.

"Okay, Yezhi." Hu Man smiled: "I will rely on you in the future."

Probably because Hu Man was too easy-going, Yezhi was a little unaccustomed, and probably because she was used to her cold face, she only nodded slightly: "This is Yezhi's duty."

Only then did Wu Zhan feel more relieved, and helped Hu Man get into the carriage: "Be careful, I'll be back at night."

Hu Man told him not to worry, and called Ye Zhi to sit up together, Hu Man looked at Ye Zhi opposite, her face was very upright, probably because of her dress or martial arts, she looked a little handsome.

"When did you follow Su Gongzi?"

Ye Zhi said lightly: "Ten years old."

"So small? Then you've been following him since you were a child, I'm afraid you've been following him for more than ten years, right? ”

Ye Zhi nodded, and Hu Man was suddenly a little embarrassed: "Then because of me, will you be unhappy if you leave Su Mansion and your master?"

Ye Zhi shook her head: "What the master says is what it is, Ye Zhi just needs to do it."

The concept of master and servant of the ancient people was too heavy, and they simply had no thinking of their own, Hu Man still said: "Don't worry, when I no longer need protection, I will tell Su Gongzi and let you continue to follow him."

Ye Zhi lowered her eyes: "Childe won't want it, and he won't regret what he said."

Hu Man frowned, feeling a little powerless against these rigid people, sometimes always forgetting that this era is different from modern times, even if she thinks that Su Lijiu, who is already good, is the same in her bones, following her subordinates for more than ten years, saying that if you give someone away, you will give it away, like an object, without emotion.

Back at the restaurant, the guests had already come to the door one after another, and Hu Man hurriedly asked, "How is the third floor?"

The guy smiled: "The Yang brothers just went up, and a guest introduced them to others, and they invited many guests from the restaurant to go up and observe."

Hu Man nodded: "I'll take a look."

She went upstairs, Ye Zhi followed behind, only the first room was occupied, Hu Man stood at the door and watched, there were two tables in total, there were men and women, the Yang brothers taught children at one table, it seemed that those people were also interested, and Hu Man did not go in to disturb.

Although Ye Zhi heard Su Lijiu say that the person she wanted to follow was a capable and intelligent woman, and asked her not to have two hearts and serve carefully, Ye Zhi still didn't expect that such a famous restaurant was actually her woman's!

In her eyes, a rich woman is either born in a good family or married to a good in-law, and she has never seen such a successful business as she is, just like she is doing her life, and she just has some extra money.

Obviously, she still knows too little about Hu Man, so Hu Man personally cooked two dishes and brought them back to the backyard: "Sit down and eat."

Ye Zhi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly waved her hand: "My subordinates don't dare."

Hu Man listened awkwardly: "What subordinates!" It's good to call yourself you, I can't eat it alone, and it doesn't taste good alone, don't treat me as your high-ranking son, I'm from the countryside, there are not so many rules, just be casual. ”

Seeing that Hu Man didn't seem to be joking, he hesitated, then sat down, picked up the chopsticks and ate a few bites, even if he didn't like the shape, Yezhi couldn't help but say: "Miss's craftsmanship is really good."

Hu Man smiled immodestly: "That is, can you open a restaurant if you don't have good skills?"

"Miss is amazing." Ye Zhi said sincerely: "For so many years, I haven't seen Childe praise any woman, even Childe's sister, he is mostly trained."

"To put it bluntly, it's machismo." Hu Man took a bite of the steamed bun: "Let me tell you, there are not many powerful women, but men are too harsh on them, and they feel that it is a shame to show up and do things, and they just don't abide by women's morals.

Ye Zhi's eyes lit up: "Then why isn't the young lady afraid?"

"Why should I be afraid? I don't rely on them to support me, I can make money by myself, and I am very confident, of course, martial arts is different from ordinary men. ”

Ye Zhi was a little impressed by Hu Man: "Miss Hu is really happy."

Hu Man thought for a moment and nodded: "Yes!" When people live, they want to be happy and comfortable, to you, in fact, it is very powerful! I am especially envious of women who can do kung fu, and I feel very domineering, but unfortunately I can't. ”

Ye Zhi paused: "Maybe only the young lady will think so, other people think that women dancing with knives and guns are simply immoral, even among the guards of the Su Mansion, those men will look down on me and talk about me secretly, but if there is a choice, who is willing to make a living in these swords!"

Hu Man shook his head: "It's that you're not strong enough, isn't Su Jia also dancing with swords?" Why do others say that she is heroic, a tiger father and no dog girl, if you are you, it is immoral? Su Jia is because of his illustrious family background, you don't have it, so you can only rely on yourself to become strong, so that even if others have opinions, they have to swallow them in their stomachs! ”

Ye Zhi smiled bitterly: "But Ye Zhi was born with a hard life, no matter how powerful she is, she is just a subordinate who works hard for others."

Hu Man suddenly patted her on the shoulder: "If you have a relationship with Su Lijiu, when I am safe here, I can let you go back, but if you believe me and follow me in the future, I will let you see what a woman can live like!"

Ye Zhi looked at Hu Man in a daze for a while, this woman who seems to be younger than herself, has no kung fu at all, but is much more confident than herself, she may not even be able to pass her two tricks, but Ye Zhi actually feels that she is really inferior to hers, she finally understands where Childe's appreciation comes from.

Ye Zhi got up and suddenly knelt down on one knee: "Miss! Yezhi is willing to follow you in the future! ”

Hu Man held his forehead: "Here we go again!" Get up, don't kneel, I'll give you silver, you protect me, trade equally! If you want to straighten your back, you can't think of yourself as inferior! ”

Ye Zhi got up: "But people are always high and low, Miss can not let me kneel, but when I see an official prince or even a person of higher status in the future, how can I not kneel."

"So are you on your knees, or are you even on your heart?" Hu Man shrugged: "In this era of imperial power, many things are indeed involuntarily, if I see the emperor, I also have to kneel, because if I don't kneel, I may die, but kneeling and kneeling, I don't think they are more noble than me, I am a pariah, in my heart, no one is as important as myself!"

"The body kneels, but the heart does not kneel?" Ye Zhi muttered, as if she understood something: "Miss is really the only woman Ye Zhi has ever seen."

She grew up in Su Mansion since she was a child, and she also watched Su Jia grow up, she used to think that it was the best thing to be able to live like Su Jia, with parents and brothers who love her, worry-free food and clothing, noble status, you can be carefree, or you can be unreasonable, and you can be coquettish and mess around.

Seeing Hu Man, in just a few hours, she found that compared to Hu Man, Su Jia lacked many things!

Hu Man looked at her in a daze, smiled and ate by herself, this creature is very strange, and the eye edge of this thing can't be said, just like when she saw Ye Zhi, although she was cold at first, but she didn't feel disgusted when she looked at it.

Maybe I've seen a lot of people, how much can I see some of her essence from a person's speech, demeanor and eyes, Yezhi is defensive and heavy-minded, but people are not insidious, and she really envy a woman who knows kung fu, so cool!

If she had traveled a few years earlier and was still young, she would definitely have learned kung fu, not to mention how powerful she would be, at least she would have protected herself!

After eating, Hu Man took her to Hu Langyue's house, since Langyue was gone, she would come to clean it once a day, it was clean, and she was still a little sentimental every time she came in.

"This is my brother's previous room, you can stay here first, and I'll get you a new futon later." Hu Man reluctantly picked up a stack of words he wrote: "By the way, are you literate?" Do you need any books in this room? ”

"Well, I know." Yezhi looked at a shelf of books: "Can I leave these books behind?"

Hu Man nodded: "Of course you can, when you are not busy, you can read a book to pass the time, the book has its own golden house, in fact, it is the same for women."

Ye Zhi looked around, this room is so good, it is much bigger than the one she lives in Su Mansion, and the furniture is very new and elegant, think about it in the future, you don't have to kill people at every turn, follow Hu Man, you can work peacefully in this restaurant, as long as you protect her safety, Ye Zhi suddenly felt that the sadness of leaving Su Lijiu had diluted a lot, and she began to look forward to a new life!
