Chapter 24: Do Me a Thing

"Hey, are you alright?" Seeing that I was silent, Rong Ziyang shook his hand twice in front of my eyes.

I came back to my senses and said, "It's okay, I just remembered one thing, and I was a little distracted." ”

Rong Ziyang asked a little excitedly, "Hey, has this Moque been at your house all along?" Old Man Su is really willing to let you take this precious thing with you! If it were my old man, he wouldn't be so generous! ”

The origin of this ink que is unknown, I don't dare to make a noise, so I said nonsense, "What are you kidding, this is not given to me by the old man, this is bought in the West Market." ”

"What? Bought in the West Market? Rong Ziyang was stunned.

I said, "yes, I bought it around there the day I met you." At that time, I only thought that this thing was small and exquisite, and there were so many precious stones, although it was a little expensive, I still spent eight hundred taels to buy it from the peddler. ”

"As for the Mo Que you mentioned, I do look a little similar, but it's definitely not the real Mo Que. That sword has been gone for hundreds of years, and not many people have found it. ”

"Although this knife is a little sharper, how can it be priceless if it can appear in the West Market? It's obviously a fake. ”

After hearing this, Rong Ziyang nodded and said, "That's what I said, but this dagger is too similar, and if a fake is made like this, it will really take some effort.!" ”

Then his expression lit up, and he leaned closer and said, "Hey, I said that the Su family girl, I think this thing is quite delicate, whether it's true or not, it's good to bring it with you." You bought it for 800 taels, I'll give you 900 taels, sell me this one, how about you go and buy another one? ”

I was shocked, but I still said calmly, "Since you like it, it doesn't hurt to sell it to you." However, this has already been used, and it is inconvenient for girls to give away casually. Why don't you go to the West Market in a few days, see the one that is sold, buy a new one for you, what do you think?. ”

Rong Ziyang nodded happily this time and said, "It's okay, that's it, don't forget." ”

I smiled slightly, "Naturally not, if you come across someone who sells it, I will definitely buy it for you." ”

After speaking, I handed the dagger to Ji Yunchang, "Didn't you say that you wanted a blade?" To give. ”

Ji Yunchang's eyes seemed to move, but he didn't take the dagger, glanced at the exquisite crossbow in his hand and said, "It's getting late today, it will take some time to repair the crossbow, so I won't repair it today, and I'll take it back to the house and open it the day after tomorrow." ”

At this time, it was close to Shenshi, and it was indeed a little late, and after tossing for an afternoon, I was also hungry, so I nodded and said okay.

Ji Yunchang's body was already fine, I put my hair aside, tidied up my clothes, and then left the hall with him and went back to their residences.

Back in the small courtyard, Lu Zhu had already boiled the warm soup and medicine, and after eating, the medicine was just warm.

This time, the medicine is more expensive than the last time, it is full of some mushroom and ginseng tablets, the taste is extremely bitter, and there is still a bitter taste in the mouth after rinsing it three times, and Luzhu can't help complaining that he shouldn't give people all the candied fruits to eat.

"Miss, lose one of the hair beads." Green Bead removed the remaining ornaments from my hair and said softly.

I hummed, it should have been in the racecourse, I lost it when I flew out, naturally I couldn't find it, so I asked her to put away the hair beads, thinking about matching another one in the future.

After washing up and reading a book, sleepiness hit, and I went to sleep with the lights out.

In the next two days, the little overlord Xu was worried about letting me buy a dagger, but he didn't embarrass me, and for two consecutive days of chess lessons, I fought to a draw with the fat student.

The master thought it was interesting, so he watched the chess from the sidelines, and the other students came to watch the chess later, and in the end, the chess class turned out to be played by the two of us, and everyone watched it, which was interesting.

On the sixth day of the eighth month, it is the day of the Blue Pavilion again.

As usual, the housekeeper was still waiting for me and Su Tianxue at the door, and after returning to Su Mansion, the two of us were going to ask Su Huo for a gift, but we were told that Su Huo had received a holy order to go to the frontier three days ago, and it would take about half a year to come back.

The general is not here, so I naturally have to go and say hello to the main mother. Wu Wanhua was not enthusiastic when she saw me, and Su Tianxue arrived in her yard, so she was naturally even more arrogant. I didn't bother to pay attention, and after saluting, I went back to the courtyard.

The maid had prepared hot water in advance, and I freshened up my sleep until noon, and then changed into men's clothes and went out through the back door.

Along the way to the Yin Red Building, this time is no longer than yesterday, it is the peony dancing time, the building is full of fire, the hall is surrounded by people, all of them are excited shouts.

I made the silver and went upstairs to see Momiji, and her complexion was better than before.

I asked, "How's it going?" ”

She replied, "Back to the son, listen to the son's orders, only sing one song a day, recently, it has attracted the attention of many noble sons, although it is not as popular as the peony girl, it is indeed more provocative." ”

I nodded, and it was pretty much what I expected. Then he asked, "How is the relationship with the sisters in the building?" ”

She replied, "Not really." Most of the fates of the sisters in the building are tortuous, and they don't want to make friends with each other, but the girl in the kitchen in the backyard is good with me. It can be better developed in the future. ”

I nodded and told her that everything would be as usual, that it would be August 15 soon, and that she would just wait.

Then I took out the white drawing I had drawn in advance and handed it to her, "You said that you should be good with the girl in the backyard, just let her do something." This person kept an eye on me, and if I found anything about her, I would pay more attention to her. ”

"Yes, Childe." Momiji answered, opened the page, looked at it carefully, and tucked it into his sleeve.

After sitting down for tea, I got up and left.

Out of the Red Mansion, the time was still early, thinking of the steamed fish in the restaurant last time, I couldn't help but be greedy, and strode forward.

Crispy duck, steamed fish, hibiscus shrimp, and a pot of bird's tongue at the end, if life can be easy all the time, it is also a good thing.

I sat and watched the scenery for a while, and it was almost late, so I slowly walked back with the green beads. When I walked down an alley, I had a vague feeling that something was wrong. So he gave the green beads a color, staggered the road, and walked to another alley.

Walking out of the two corners, I flashed and grabbed the green bead and hid in a recessed wall, and after a while I heard a sound of footsteps, and a man followed with a thief.

I popped out the dagger, and my feet flashed, and I quickly put the dagger against his neck, and said coldly, "Say, who are you?" Why follow me? ”

The man was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise, "Engong, is it really you?" ”

Eun Gong?

He didn't care that there was a knife on his neck, his knees were weak, and he fell to his knees with a plop, "Engong, it's me!" ”

I was even more confused, and took a half step back to take a closer look, this man was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and his eyebrows and eyes were very clean, but I didn't have any impression of him.

He was a little anxious, and said, "Engong, I'm Li Jiu!" That day, Engong gave Li Jiu the silver. ”

Oh, it turned out to be him!

He was bloodied and bruised that day, and I barely noticed his appearance. Now that he has changed into a set of clean clothes, most of the injuries on his face have disappeared, and he is still a refreshing teenager.

"Eun Gong, do you remember?" The young man was a little anxious, "I knelt in Xishi one day, not far away, don't you really remember?" ”

"I remember." I nodded.

He immediately gave me a head of the head happily and said, "That day, thanks to Engong's money, I went to West Street to buy a coffin, and also bought paper money and a burial horse, and buried my father on the back mountain." ”

"Well, that's good." I answered, remembering the rumors that he was a ruffian, and did not put away the dagger.

He looked at the knife and said, "I was sad that day, I left in a hurry, and I didn't even ask Engong's name, so these days, Li Jiu waited in the market every day, hoping to find Engong." Who would have thought that Engong changed his clothes, and Li Jiu didn't dare to recognize people at will, so he followed Engong. ”

I frowned and asked him, "Have you been waiting on the street every day these days?" ”

Li Jiu smiled and said, "Back to Engong, I did wait on the street every day, and finally found Engong." ”

Thinking of the words that the person said before that I should not give him money, otherwise it would stick and I couldn't get rid of it, I was a little irritable, so I asked him, "Didn't I say that I don't need you to be a slave, what are you waiting for me to do?" ”

Li Jiu was stunned for a moment, and said, "I left in a hurry that day, neither asked Engong's name, nor thanked Engong, Li Jiu was waiting here, naturally he wanted to thank Engong." ”

After speaking, he stood up and knelt down, kowtowed uprightly and said, "Li Jiu, thank you for your great kindness, please accept Li Jiu's kneel." ”

My irritability was even better, and when he finished kowtowing, he suppressed his temper and said, "My head is also kowtowed, thank you, you can go." ”

Li Jiu didn't get up, but said, "Since Li Jiu has received Engong's money, he will be Engong's servant in the future." From now on, the Lord will be honored and the Lord will be supreme. Where Engong is, Li Jiu is. After the tax, he kowtowed again. How sincere and sincere that looks.

"Little ...... Childe, what should I do? The green bead gently pulled me.

I understand what he meant, the rules of the General's Mansion are strict, and the subordinates are all organized, and it is impossible to enter at will. And even if he could be brought in, he would not be able to take him in with his former conduct.

Besides, I can't take him into the house at all.

On that day, he was only given silver taels when he touched the scene. At that time, it was very clear that there was no need to pay it back, and he didn't need to be grateful.

I sighed and said, "There is no shortage of minions in my family, and you don't have to respect me, take me first." Go find a job and live a good life. ”

With that, I'm leaving. He was silent for a while in the back, and suddenly replied, "Engong, you are concerned about Li Jiu's former foolishness and look down on Li Jiu. ”.

I didn't look back, and he shouted again, "Engong, I have been inspired to be a person again, why do you still look at me like this!" Li Jiu was really confused before, he was angry with his mother, and his father fell into the river and died.

In those days, he kowtowed to his father on the street, and no one reached out to help him for three days, and Li Jiu thought that if someone could help Li Jiu get through this hurdle, he would be a new person from now on. Engong, why don't you give Li Jiu a chance to change! ”

As he spoke, he burst into tears.

I suddenly felt a little moved. When I turned around, he was also very thin, kneeling in the alley and crying, which was a little pitiful.

Although I don't know if the prodigal son turned back, whether it was really gold and not exchanged. But if a person wants to change his ways, it is always good.

As soon as my mind moved, I walked over slowly, "Li Jiu, you said that you want to think that I am respectful and will be a slave from now on, right?" Okay, you can do something for me. ”
