Dai Qiu was flattered and hurriedly took it with both hands, but Mother Han helped her shoulder and let her continue to sit, and sat down on the little vulture on the side.

Qin Shi took a sip of pear soup before saying: "But Kyoto is five or six hundred miles away from Tongzhou, even if you are fast, you will have to walk for at least seven or eight days, who knows what will happen between these days." ”

Dai Qiu: "Madame can wait for the letter while secretly selling some shops and fields, and when it is really a last resort, it is always more convenient to have some cash in hand that has not been registered." ”

Dai Qiu had experienced the raid of Xifu, and at that time, the whole house was crying and grabbing the ground, and all the household items that could be seen, gold and silver jewelry, were looted.

It wasn't until the whole family was imprisoned that she begged everywhere for help, and she realized how important it was to have some cash in her hand.

Qin nodded and said to Han's mother, "Just do what she says." ”

Han's mother hurriedly answered: "The slave and maid will explain to Lebo in a while, now there are thousands of acres of fertile land on the outskirts of Beijing Zhuangzi that have not been moved, except for the name of the lady, all parties and courtyards also have some shops in their hands, do you want to notify them to discount?" ”

Qin nodded and said: "All of them are discounted, and when you pass this level, you won't be able to buy any kind of shop Grange you want in the future." ”

Mother Han replied, and asked, "It's just the person who went to Tongzhou to deliver the letter, is there anyone else to choose for Mrs.?" ”

Qin looked at Dai Qiu blankly, it is said that the road is far away, and it is best to appoint a few small servants to go over quickly, but the matter is very important, and it is difficult for people who don't know the inside story to be reassured after all.

Dai Qiu understood what the Qin family meant, hurriedly put the soup bowl aside, and said solemnly: "Madam, the slave is willing to go to Tongzhou to deliver the letter." ”

Qin: "It's a long way to Tongzhou, you are a girl's house, how can you get into danger?" ”

Dai Qiu said with tears: "Madam, the slave maid is not as good as the girls in the house, the slave maid is used to falling from the sea from a small beard, from the hometown to Kyoto, there are hundreds of miles away, and it is not safe and sound, now the slave and maid are older, and they know how to be more flexible on the road, and they will be fine." ”

Although her words were sincere, how could the Qin clan not hear that she was pretending to be relaxed? It's a long way to go to the mountains, even men need courage, not to mention that she is a weak woman?

Seeing that the Qin family did not agree immediately, Dai Qiu said again: "Madam, the slave maid just escaped from the palace, although this matter is extremely hidden, but now that it is eventful, I am afraid that someone will go out of the wind and then affect the mansion, so let the slave and maid go outside to avoid the limelight first!" ”

The Qin family finally made up his mind, held Dai Qiu's hand and said: "It's hard for you to bother thinking about me so much, I have a total of four girls, and I don't have as much care as you, from now on, you will no longer be a slave, I will recognize you as a righteous daughter,

If my Xifu can survive this catastrophe safely, you are the lady of the mansion! Indeed, I will put you in the genealogy, and I will make you worthy of being my daughter. ”

Mother Han hurriedly got up and saluted Dai Qiu: "The slave maid congratulates Miss Dai Qiu!" ”

Dai Qiu cried and knelt down and said: "Madame is as kind to me as a mountain, even if I give up this life, I will definitely live up to Madame's entrustment." ”

The Qin clan held Dai Qiu's face and cried, "My son, I have worked hard for you. ”

Dai Qiu: "Madame......"

In the evening, Dai Qiu packed his bags in the room for tomorrow's departure.

The Qin family had already asked Han's mother to come to Langqiu Pavilion to spread the word, saying that from now on, they would send Dai Qiu to Zhuangzi outside the city to collect rent.

Xi Fangyu did not have any objections, and privately asked Dai Qiu to pay attention to safety in a few words, and the matter was settled.

Finding the ghost drawing talisman from the head of the bed, Dai Qiu felt worried, he went, it might take half a month to go back and forth, if Gu Jiu came to find this thing halfway, then who should he entrust it to to transfer?

was distracted, but I heard a low male voice outside the window say, "Why are you sitting alone and being stunned?" ”

Dai Qiu was taken aback by this voice.

After recognizing who it was, Dai Qiu couldn't help but say with an unhappy face: "Why are you always elusive and scared people to death?" ”

Xiao Chengyan was dressed in night clothes, and at the moment he leaned lazily against the window, holding a gem-encrusted Qingquan sword in his wrist, with an expressionless face.

Dai Qiu felt as if he was too harsh, so he deliberately softened his tone and asked, "Are your injuries all healed?" Still coughing up blood? ”

As soon as the words came out, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and she couldn't help blushing again.

Who knows, Xiao Chengyan actually responded, he lowered his head and said "um", but both of them heard it clearly.

His gaze went down, and it happened to fall on the roster in Dai Qiu's hand.

This girl saved him by mistake, and he reciprocated for relieving her predicament, and when he got the roster from her, he didn't owe anything to each other.

It's just that Xiao Chengyan feels that he should have some other reason for this trip.

Dai Qiu looked through the window, handed him both hands and said, "I can finally return this to you, you can see if it's right." ”

Xiao Chengyan took it with one hand, looked left and right, put it into his underwear and turned around to leave, but was stopped by the person behind him.

Dai Qiu asked him: "Your martial arts are so good, you must be studying under a famous family?" ”

Xiao Chengyan said to death: "I am self-taught." ”

Dai Qiu talked to him again, laughing loudly: "Then do you have any relatives in Kyoto?" Have friends? I see that you are alone, coming and going without a trace, is it a little lonely! ”

Xiao Chengyan looked impatient: "What exactly do you want to ask?" ”

Dai Qiu: "Although your martial arts are good, but wandering all day long is not a long time, why don't I introduce you to a good errand?" ”

Xiao Chengyan: "......"

Dai Qiu's face was a little red, and he only lowered his head and said: "Actually, it's me, I'm going to go out early tomorrow morning, and I'm going to take two family servants to follow, but if something happens on the road, I'm afraid they won't be useful.

And my trip is very important, and there must be no room for mistakes on the way, so I would like to ask you for a favor. ”

After she finished speaking, she immediately raised her voice confidently and added: "The salary is easy to say!" ”

Xiao Chengyan's always indifferent face burst out with a hint of disbelief and looked at the little girl in front of him with interest.

"I'm expensive, can you afford it?"

Dai Qiu saw that the other party did not refuse, felt that there was a joke, and said with a smile: "Don't look at me as just a little maid in the house now, my monthly silver will rise after a while, plus I have also saved a lot of savings over the years, I will not treat you badly, no matter how expensive, there is a price, you might as well talk about it first." ”

Xiao Chengyan still looked at her with his arms crossed, and asked, "Is it because Mrs. Xi wants to accept you as a righteous daughter, do you think you are rich?" ”

Dai Qiu immediately became vigilant: "How do you know so much about our family's affairs?" ”

She quickly changed her face and asked, "Who are you?" What is the purpose of your approach to our home? ”

Xiao Chengyan didn't answer, only looked at her as if demonstrating.

Suddenly, as if he had sensed something, he jumped in from the window, and before Dai Qiu could react, he reached out to cover her mouth, and quickly stretched out his foot to close the window.
