Chapter 43: Mission

"Go, wash well, change your clothes."

"Be quick, don't delay the time, so that you can be scolded by the manager."

The one who spoke was a middle-aged man, with a powerful force, a saber hanging from his waist, wearing a coarse linen coat on his body, throwing aside the clothes that You Ziji had changed, looking like a nursing home in the house, his skills should be good, at least he is a senior cultivator. When the man had finished his account, he left the house.

This middle-aged man should also be begging for food here, so he hides his cultivation, otherwise how can it be just a nursing home, You Ziji thought it was so, and he didn't think much about it. He looked around, there were neatly stacked wooden branches everywhere, and this should be a firewood house. There is a wooden bucket in the room, and in the bucket is the water that has just been brought up from the well, which is cool and thorough, just suitable for washing the mud and dirt on the body, and cooling down and relieving the heat by the way. Changing clothes, he is still a cute and handsome young man.

The old butler came to Dahan, signaled that he was ready, and asked, "Captain Hong, how is it, has he finished cleaning up?" ”

Hong Duwei patted his chest and reassured: "Don't worry, I'll tell that kid, the kung fu should be almost finished by this time." ”

The old butler maintained his usual rigorous style, "He has a bad ear, how did you tell him?" ”

"What! He's deaf? Then what I said, he didn't hear a word. Hong Duwei was stunned. It's not that Miss Zhou's arrangement is delayed, it's all at fault, I'll tell that kid now. As he spoke, he was about to rush into the firewood room, he was a fiery character, and he gave the old housekeeper the most headache, and it was too late to stop him.

"Captain Hong, don't worry, don't hurry, don't miss this point......"

Squeak.

The door of the firewood room was pulled open by Hong Duwei, and You Ziji looked up with some confusion, and saw that the big man who rushed through the door showed a relieved expression after entering the door. After thinking about it for a while, You Ziji looked at the big man with a little helplessness, the situation just now is that everyone knows that he has to wash and change clothes, and he is not a fool, this big man is really a little frizzy.

On the other side, the old housekeeper saw the handsomeness of Youzi Jisheng, and felt a chill for no reason, although there was no evidence, he always felt that there seemed to be trouble again.

At this time, I can't take care of so much, and the people who can be trusted are here. The three of them walked through the courtyard and came to the prepared carriage, where Miss Zhou had already gotten into the carriage.

When he first entered the city, You Ziji had already seen Miss Zhou, but this time it was a little different, You Ziji seemed to smell a strong smell of herbs.

Sure enough, the housekeeper asked, "Miss, are you okay, it's really not too late to go tomorrow." ”

Miss Zhou's voice seemed to be even weaker, "How can it be, my father is isolated, if he doesn't fulfill his agreement, I'm afraid there will be no helper, for the sake of the parents of the children, this injury is nothing." ”

……

You Ziji and his party left the mansion, walked through a lively street market, and came to a mansion that was more luxurious than the Zhou Mansion.

The word Zhang Mansion is written on the plaque, but it is the General's Mansion of Zi County, the general soldier who controls the entire city, and is the number one person in the military that the county guard has always wanted to woo. However, this Zhang family is a local wealthy family, and they are naturally resistant to the appointment of foreign officials, so the county guard has come over repeatedly, but they are only staggered, and the banquets are continuous, but there is no progress in the main matter. Later, the county guard really couldn't pull his face, so he had to let his daughter go out, wanting to connect the relationship between the two families through the line of female dependents.

On this trip, in addition to Youziji, only Hong Duwei and a maid accompanied him out, when he arrived at the place, the carriage had to be placed at the back door, and people also entered through the back door.

The two followed Miss Zhou into Zhang's mansion, and You Ziji waited outside the mansion alone, seeing that the people nearby didn't pay attention to him, he turned around and came to a small alley, and took out the bamboo tube in his arms, which should contain letters.

This bamboo tube is the real purpose of this trip, according to the instructions of Steward Zhou, You Ziji put this bamboo tube in the crack of the wall of the house opposite Zhang's house. The mansion covers a small area, and although it looks like a wealthy family, it cannot be compared with the Zhang Mansion.

When stuffing things, You Ziji found that there was also a bamboo tube there, so he took it out and put it in his arms. When he returned to the carriage again, everything was normal, no one found out where he had just gone, and now he just had to wait for everyone to go back to the house.

Miss Zhou didn't know when she came out, and You Ziji was active, and came to the main gate of the house with the reward given when she signed the contract with the housekeeper.

For some reason, the gate was open, and you could see the peach trees planted inside, and a spacious open space in the center with stone-locked sandbags, and there was nothing else in the small courtyard.

You Ziji came to the vendor who set up a stall at the opposite door, chatted a few words, bought some snacks, and finally inquired about the general information of the people opposite.

This family is also surnamed Zhou, and now the owner of the family is named Zhou, but it is the same family as the county guard. The ancestor was just a civilian in Zijun City, and his father joined the army in order to earn money for food, and he had meritorious deeds and mixed up with a small official position. The commander of the army saw that he was loyal and quite martial, and in order to win him over, he gave him a mansion, which is the place in front of him.

It's a pity that the chief gave you benefits in order for you to be a dog for him, but this old Zhou couldn't see the situation clearly, and invested a lot of money to let Zhou Weiming learn literature and practice martial arts, hoping to achieve a career in the future. Zhou Weiming did not disappoint the old man, he was already a lieutenant at a young age, but because he robbed the limelight of the Zhou family everywhere, this was only one level lower than the highest title of the military general of Zijun City, Zhonglang General, and he did not have any real power.

In recent years, life has become more and more difficult, I don't know when I will be able to get through, and now I am even threatened, and I don't even dare to close my own door, for fear that someone will commit murder in broad daylight.

……

Towards evening, You Ziji and his party turned back the same way, and saw two young men standing side by side halfway through the road, a Taoist priest dressed as a big sword on his back almost as tall as his body. The other was gorgeously dressed and had an elegant temperament, but the young man's face was gray-haired, out of place with his surroundings, and looked very torn.

As soon as You Ziji saw the two of them, his hairs immediately stood up, and he only felt that their strength was unfathomable, even when he confronted the Leopard Ce Demon King, he didn't feel this way.

Na Hong Duwei also noticed something unusual, he seemed to know the richly dressed man, and obviously wanted to bow down, but was stopped by the white-haired young man waving his hand, and watched the wanderer help them leave.

"Puyu is golden, Huai Jin holds Yu." The Taoist priest whispered softly.

The white-haired man said, "Puyu? You mean the one in the carriage? She is the daughter of the new Zhou Junshou, and she is indeed well-qualified. ”

The Taoist priest nodded in agreement when he heard this, "Miss Zhou is a good person. ”
