155:Little life almost rested (one shift)
Shopkeeper Guo is sincerely grateful to Chang Xi, if it weren't for her, I'm afraid that the turnaround battle of Taiming Tea House would not be so beautiful, and now many people who have not been able to swallow the assets of Zhuang and Shen are beating their chests and slapping their thighs.
"Our host said that when Chang Niangzi returns to the city, she must buy a banquet to thank you."
Chang Xi has been working very happily with the shopkeeper Guo, so as soon as he said this, she immediately responded, although she was curious about the owner of Taiming Tea House, but she knew that if there was no shopkeeper Guo in front, Taiming Tea House would not make a comeback so soon.
In the final analysis, she is still envious of the many owners of Taiming Tea House, and there can be loyal and capable subordinates like Guo Zhang, and talents are scarce resources wherever they are.
When the other three big shopkeepers arrived, the atmosphere couldn't help but be a little sour.
The shopkeeper of Qingxiang Tea House looked at the shopkeeper Guo and said sourly, "Old Guo, you are not kind, how can you reveal some news to my junior brother for such a big thing, and now the owner is suspicious that I did not do my best, it is really wronged."
When the Zhuang and Shen families had an accident, although they were glad that they were not involved, they did not dare to act rashly, but when the two assets were to be sold, they were one step late, and they were preempted by Taiming Tea House, and he was scolded by the owner when he turned around.
Shopkeeper Liu of Shengde Tea House and Shopkeeper Zhu of Mingfeng Tea House also thought so, and they all crusaded against Shopkeeper Guo to eat alone, and they left some meat for them, which was really not enough friends.
Guo's shopkeeper hugged his fists and begged for peace, and then said that he invited them to eat to make amends, and the three of them gave up, originally just to say a few jokes and complain, and didn't really want to turn against Guo's shopkeeper, after all, they are now the shopkeeper of the largest tea house in Yiyang City, and they can't afford to offend, thinking of this, my heart is even more sour.
Chang Xi came out to play a round, and this matter passed in everyone's laughter, after all, this was the first meeting after the tea brick workshop made a profit, and there were still a lot of places to discuss, so we couldn't waste time.
When he was busy returning to the other courtyard, Chang Xi actually ran into Xie Jin halfway, and couldn't help but look at it with a little surprise, "Ninth Master Xie, this is really a coincidence."
Xie Jin rode on his horse and looked at the mount under her, and couldn't help but sigh softly, "When did you change it?"
Chang Xi gently stroked the tall pony and sat down, and said without any intimidation, "I saw that it was quite lonely in the stable, so I took it out for a walk, and the mare I rode before was ridden by Xiao Tao."
Xie Jin saw that the maid named Xiao Tao next to her was really riding the little mare, this woman would really make excuses for herself, but seeing that she was riding well, he didn't have much to do to correct her.
Xiao Tao was frightened by Xie Jin's glance, and subconsciously rode away from Chang Xi and him, getting close to this master would make people feel more stressed. Chinese Net
It's just that she didn't expect Zhou Nan to be behind her, the short mare touched the tall horse behind her, and she screamed, she turned around and looked at Zhou Nan apologetically, and quickly ordered her horse to move aside, feeling a little embarrassed where she was.
Zhou Nan frowned, what's the matter with this little maid? He didn't care much about her, did he?
Xiao Tao didn't know what Zhou Nan was thinking, but she felt that this person was so serious that she didn't want to get close, so she was a little farther away from Zhou Nan.
Chang Xi didn't care about Xiao Tao, anyway, this time the road to the other courtyard has been walked countless times, so he can't lose her, but rode his horse and Xie Jin side by side, and casually chatted with some innocuous words, after all, he met, not to say anything The atmosphere is too weird.
Xie Jin answered without answering, and he also saw that Chang Xi was just saying casually, and there was no purpose, so he was very relaxed at this moment.
It's just that after walking for a while, Chang Xi suddenly felt that the hair on her back stood up, she instinctively sensed that there was danger, and was about to remind Xie Jin, but Xie Jin suddenly approached her, and pressed her head without warning, and when she was about to protest, she suddenly heard a "boom", and an object flew over her head, and she suddenly broke out in a cold sweat on her forehead.
His life was almost over.
Thinking of this, her hand holding the reins of the horse couldn't help but tighten, but now was not the time to be nervous, she just wanted to raise her head and talk to Xie Jin, but Xie Jin suddenly said, "You jump over my horse."
Chang Xi heard this, no
Suspicious, she immediately lifted her foot from the stirrups, and with the help of the power of Xie Jin's arm, she sat in front of Xie Jin, and the action was completed in an instant.
This was not the time to talk about it, and she immediately said, "I'll ride the horse."
Xie Jin looked at her deeply, and did not ask her whether she could do it, but let go of the reins of the horse, handed her the direction of progress, and when he avoided an arrow, he bent down and drew his long sword from the side of the saddle, so as to block the arrow that had been shot in secret.
Zhou Nan on the side also protected the frightened Xiao Tao first, and then pulled her to his horse, but his actions were quite rude, in short, he treated Xiao Tao's burden as a sack.
Fortunately, at this time, the people and horses arranged by the fourth master Xie to secretly protect Xie Jin suddenly appeared, which was able to block the force of the pursuit behind, but the situation was still not optimistic.
Chang Xi didn't care about the fierce battle in the rear, at this moment she was thinking about whether to rush back to the other courtyard for help, or find a hidden spot nearby to fight back?
It's just that she can't think much about it now, and once the horse stops, the problem will be big.
How did the house leak happen to rain overnight, and the horse's butt was shot with an arrow at some point, and under the pain, the horse raised its front hooves and began to run wildly, even Chang Xi, a person with superb equestrian skills, couldn't control it.
"Don't be nervous, let the horses run first." Xie Jin spoke up to reassure her.
Chang Xi had seen many scenes like this in her previous life, and although her nerves were tense at this time, she was not panicked, but she still gritted her teeth and said, "Got it."
The people who were ambushed there should have done their homework, knowing that Xie Jin lived in this courtyard, or they had already known his itinerary, in short, the assassins now had the advantage.
She didn't try to confront the galloping horse anymore, and now she could only let it go without arguing, perhaps by this power she could temporarily escape from the pursuit behind.
There is life in the chaos.
Seeing that the horse ridden by the master in front of him suddenly galloped, and the master still held a sword to resist the rain of arrows in the sky, Zhou Nan couldn't help but worry about whether his master would be injured, he wanted to catch up, but the assassin behind him also chased very closely, so he gritted his teeth, and could only deal with the person behind this ass first, and then mention others.
He whistled, and the people sent by the fourth master Xie no longer ran while resisting, but paused, and rushed over in reverse to deal with this group of arrogant assassins first, so as to buy time for Xie Jin to escape.
Xiao Tao was pressed on the horse's back, her stomach surged because of the horse's running, and she smelled blood, she insisted while fainting and vomiting, at this time she didn't dare to say anything to disturb Zhou Nan and the others' counterattack, she just hoped that everyone could live safely.
The speed of the horse that Chang Xi and Xie Jin rode together was very fast, and she threw off the people behind her at once, and when Chang Xi felt that the assassin was blocked, she was about to snatch the initiative with the horse, when she felt a sticky feeling in her arm, she was startled, and looked back at Xie Jin, "Are you injured?"
