Chapter 45: Commitments
Xi'an is the capital of Shaanxi Province and the ancient capital, with high city walls and magnificent buildings, which are different from other majestic shapes.
Fu Tingyun clung to the thick rope, watching the shadows of Mo Yi and the others who were looking up at her on the ground getting smaller and smaller.
"Miss," Zheng Sanniang, who came up earlier, stretched out her hand to pull her, "Be careful." β
Fu Tingyun looked up and saw Zhao Ling standing under the sentry tower of the city wall.
The gentle moonlight fell quietly on his body, and the tall tower blocked his tall figure, and his face was half in the shadow of the watchtower, half in the moonlight, which seemed extraordinarily quiet and lonely.
Seeing Fu Tingyun looking at him, he smiled slightly, dispelled the coldness, and felt a little warm.
Ah Sen hugged Linchun and walked over: "Girl, are you okay?" β
"It's fine!" Fu Tingyun smiled at him, under the moonlight, like a still blooming epiphany, with a prosperous beauty.
Zheng Sanniang couldn't help murmuring: "Miss, you are so beautiful." β
The guard next to him was already waiting for no worries: "Hurry up, don't be sluggish." If we are found by the night watchman, we will all die. β
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Zheng Sanniang took the child from Asen's hand and apologized in panic.
Zhao Ling decided to leave Linchun Town, and Fu Tingyun wanted to bring Zheng San's family with him: "Because they carried water and washed clothes for us, their family has been regarded as our people by Linchun Town, if we leave, they may only have a dead end." I'm still a little soft enough to pay for our tipping into town. β
Zheng San knew that he was grateful, and pulled Zheng Sanniang with red eyes to kowtow to Fu Tingyun.
Fu Tingyun hurriedly grabbed Zheng Sanniang: "Speaking of which, I have caused you to be tired." β
"Miss, hurry up and do this, if it weren't for you, our whole family wouldn't be able to survive." Zheng San said, "I don't have any ability, I just have the strength to be naΓ―ve," he said, smiling bitterly, "It's this handful of strength, and it's also because Miss rewarded her with a mouthful of food, Miss's great kindness, we have repaid it in this life, and I will return it to Linchun, Linchun can't report it, and Linchun's son." As long as Miss says a word, she will go to the soup and go to the fire, and she will not give up. β
Zhao Ling, who was watching from the sidelines, was thoughtful. On the way, he said to Zheng San: "If you don't have a place to go, why don't you follow Miss Fu?" No matter what else you say, if there is a bite of her, there will be a bite of yours. β
Zheng San didn't say a word, and he had to confess the Lord halfway.
Isn't this a retribution of kindness?
"No need!" Fu Tingyun waved his hand again and again.
Zhao Ling ignored it and said to Zheng San: "When you enter Xi'an Mansion, you will be a witness by Manager Mo, and you can write a document of refuge!" β
even asked for someone's deed of sale.
Fu Tingyun was about to open his mouth to object, but when he saw Zhao Ling's stern gaze, he had to swallow all the words that came to his mouth.
Zheng San immediately agreed.
When entering the city, looking for some guards and lions opened their mouths, asking for thirty taels of silver per person, even Linchun was counted as one person, and they wanted cash, so angry that Mo Yi jumped to his feet, Zhao Ling didn't know where to touch five big yellow croakers and handed them to the guards, the guards' eyes lit up, and they immediately put the hanging basket down.
Zheng Sanniang panicked when she thought of the big yellow croaker paid to the guards.
If they hadn't been able to get into the city because of her, it wouldn't have been a pity for her to die a hundred times or a thousand times.
Where did she dare to say more, she hurriedly stood aside, watching those guards pull Mo Yi and Zheng San, Chen Liu, Xiao Wu and others up one by one.
"Let's go!" Different from Zheng San and Ah Sen's silence, Mo Yi, Chen Liu, and Xiao Wu all seemed very relaxed, "Let's find a place to wait for dawn - this midnight third watch, the curfew in the city, if it alarms the city patrol, it will be just as troublesome." β
Everyone didn't make a sound, followed Mo Yi down the city gate, and went all the way to the west, passing by the guards patrolling the city several times, but they were cleverly avoided by Mo Yi leading them. Finally, he stopped next door to a street of singing and dancing: "You guys wait a while, I'll see if I can find a place for us to change our clothes." We look like this, it's okay to say at night, but it's dazzling during the day, and others know that they are homeless people at a glance - now Xi'an Mansion will escort them to Jiuligou when they see them. β
Everyone didn't speak, staying where they were, Mo Yi took Chen Liu to the next door.
Fu Tingyun saw that the red lantern on the street next door lit up half of the sky, and the coquettish laughter of the warbler Yanyan continued, which was very lively, and said strangely: "Is there a singing hall next door?" I don't know which one? It's so magnificent. β
Zhao Ling stood with his back as if he didn't see her again, Ah Sen lowered his head, Xiao Wu looked left and right, Zheng San stood far away with a huge burden on his back, and no one answered her words.
In the silence, the woman next door smiled more clearly, reflecting the loneliness and emptiness of this uninhabited small street.
Zheng Sanniang saw that the crowd ignored Fu Tingyun's words, afraid that Fu Tingyun would be unhappy in her heart, and said with a smile: "Xi'an is not the capital of Shaanxi, and the big families have invited so many people to come in one go. There was no such scene in our place, when the county magistrate was born. β
"What nonsense!" The sweat on Zheng San's forehead came out, and he scolded his wife, "Miss speaks, how can you speak!" β
Zheng Sanniang flinched.
"It's just gossip together, how can there be so many rules," Fu Tingjun said with a smile, "Be careful to wake up the child." β
Zheng San laughed wryly.
Zhao Ling suddenly said, "Let's take a few steps inside!" Standing at the corner of the street is easy to be spotted by the guards who patrol the night. β
Xiao Wu responded "yes" in a row, and everyone took more than 20 steps back.
After a while, Mo Yi and Chen Liu folded back.
"That's it!" Mo Yi's face was full of joy, "You come with me." He led them into a small alley on the other side of the street, into a small courtyard that was remote and messy.
There was a small step back in the yard.
Fu Tingyun and Zheng Sanniang went to change their clothes first, and then Zhao Ling and them.
When everything was almost ready, there was a glimmer of light in the sky.
The group went out of the courtyard.
The street next door was quiet, and occasionally two hurried men walked past them with a strong scent,
Fu Tingyun was secretly strange.
Mo Yi took them to an inn called "Gao Sheng" not far away, claiming to be a foot merchant and wanting to hug a side yard.
The shopkeeper was a white and fat forty-year-old man, and his two pairs of eyes narrowed into a slit: "Lord Da, I'm really sorry, our inn is full, why don't you go to the 'Liansheng' inn next door to have a look?" β
They went to the Liansheng Inn, but there were only two rooms left in the Liansheng Inn, and on the recommendation of the shopkeeper, they went to an inn called "Xilian". The inn has a small courtyard, but ten taels of silver a day, and it has to be traded in cash.
Mo Yi looked at Zhao Ling.
Zhao Ling looked at Mo Yi: "I'm penniless." β
Everyone was stunned.
Fu Tingyun was even more sad.
How could he be unreserved...... If it weren't for the fact that Mo Yi asked him to pay for it this time, would he never be ready to let people know about it...... She thought of Li Jiawa's bucket of bath water, and Zhao Ling's embarrassment because of no money came to her mind...... It was as if she had been stabbed, and her heart ached beyond words.
She stepped forward and tugged at the corner of his coat.
He turned around: "If there is anything, I will talk about it later." β
In front of everyone, Fu Tingyun was not easy to insist.
Mo Yi glared at Zhao Ling: "You were penniless and gave those five big yellow croakers who guarded the door in one go?" β
Zhao Ling said: "I see that you bought so many ingredients in one go, and you didn't take any of them when you left, thinking that Brother Mo had already made arrangements." β
Mo Yi walked around the door of the inn angrily, and it took him a long time before he stopped and took them to the next inn.
Fu Tingyun found an opportunity to whisper to Zhao Ling: "I still have some soft ...... in my baggage."
Without waiting for her to speak, Zhao Ling said: "I have my own measure in this matter, you don't care." β
Fu Tingyun calmed down.
After tossing and turning until noon, they finally found a suitable place to live in an inn called "Xisheng".
I didn't eat breakfast, the sun was big, and everyone was so tired that everyone was walking around. arranged the accommodation, had an expensive lunch in the inn, freshened up, and everyone fell asleep, only Zheng San, vigilantly guarding the door of the small courtyard.
It wasn't until the time of the lamp that everyone woke up one after another.
Zhao Ling called Zheng San and his wife to go, Mo Yi as a witness, and asked them to press their handprints on the written contract, and then knocked on the door of the east wing where Fu Tingyun was resting, handed the contract to Fu Tingyun, and said in a low voice: "Where is your bracelet?" Put things away! β
I can't wait for Zheng San to sign the contract......
Fu Tingyun felt that Zhao Ling was not generous enough in this matter.
Zhao Ling has whispered: "I have carefully observed, Zheng San is shrewd and capable, and he knows kung fu; Zheng Sanniang is loyal and honest, and diligent, you have these two people by your side, and if you have anything to do in the future, you will also have a ...... to rely on."
Rely on?
Why should she rely on Zheng San and his wife!
The thought flashed, and Fu Tingyun suddenly realized that she was now in Xi'an Mansion.
According to their agreement, when he arrived in Xi'an, he would find a way to send a letter to her mother...... Then her mother will arrange where she goes......
Zhao Ling is about to be separated from her!
Fu Tingyun's face suddenly turned pale.
Scared, sad, lost...... Follow.
But so what?
It was an early morning appointment.
He has given a lot for her...... From Huayin to Weinan, from Weinan to Xi'anfu, she couldn't trouble him anymore.
knew that this was the case, but why did she have unspeakable sadness in her heart?
She knew that he had thought of everything for her, but why did she still feel scared?
I knew that I should thank him gratefully at this time, but why couldn't I say thank you?
Fu Tingyun looked at him in a panic, his eyes moistened for no reason.
Zhao Ling sighed softly in his heart.
Send you a thousand miles, and there will be a farewell.
That's all he could do for her.
No matter what, she is the daughter of the Fu family, with a high hall and an uncle, so it is not his turn to take care of these idle things.
Besides, he has his own things to do, she has her way to go, even if he has the heart, he can't help much, maybe the more he helps, the more he will hurt her.
Just like this Biyun Temple...... I robbed people like this, I don't know what the Fu family thinks? I don't know if the Fu family will count this matter on her head.
He was a little confused.
I just hope that after she has gone through some hardships, God can take pity on her a little, and don't make her sad and sad.
When I looked up, I saw her sparkling eyes.
Clear and flawless.
It's unbearable to face.
"Don't worry, I'll make sure you're safe before leaving."
Another promise, just like that, the ghost and the god almost made it inadvertently.
