See you in the world

Chapter 433 A false alarm

When they came to the town, Yunjing ordered Song Yan to buy cloth, while he went to the cake shop alone.

The store is located in the bustling area of ​​the town. It is a store facing the street on both sides of a crossroad. When I came to the neighborhood, Yunjing actually saw people queuing up on such a cold day. They were all dressed as servants. They were sent by a rich family to buy cakes. Yes, although this stuff is delicious, ordinary people are reluctant to consume it.

Liu Dazhuang and Ding Wei were helping in the store, and the help was only incidental. They were mainly responsible for preventing people from coming to cause chaos. Now they are both martial arts practitioners in the middle of the day after tomorrow, and they are not enough to clean up with one hand.

The sharp-eyed Liu Dazhuang saw Yunjing for the first time, and immediately put down the work in his hands and walked out in surprise: "Master, you are back!"

"Well, I've been back for a few days. I've been at home with my family, and I'm only free to come here today. How is Uncle Liu? I'm sorry to bother you during this time," Yun Jing smiled and nodded.

Liu Dazhuang and Ding Wei have been responsible for protecting their own safety since they became teachers at the age of six. Over the past ten years or so, they have always done their duty. Although there have been no accidents, Yunjing is still very grateful to them.

However, time makes people grow old. When they were in their early 30s, they followed Yunjing. Over the years, wrinkles can be seen on their faces, and their life has begun to gradually decline...

"It's good that the young master came back safely. He should have taken us with him back then. Although it won't be of much help, he can still help the young master with some trivial matters. Please come inside quickly, young master. It's cold outside. I'll inform shopkeeper Zhang..." , Liu Dazhuang welcomed Yunjing into the shop and took him all the way to a private room upstairs, and then went out to find Zhang Changgui who was talking about business.

Since this period of time, the cake shop has become well-known in Niujiao Town, the county and even the county seat, and it can no longer be described with local characteristics. It can even be said that Niujiao Town's signboard is not an exaggeration.

The goods are good and everyone likes them, but the service is even better. As the shopkeeper, Zhang Changgui will go to meet and negotiate in person when encountering large orders, and now he rarely stands at the counter in the store.

But Zhang Changgui may not be very knowledgeable, but he is very cautious. He knows that the violence of the cake is enviable, and the business is limited to the town, and he does not go to other places. In case of accidents, there is no problem in Niujiao Town. It's someone I know, and if there is anything to say, a large group of people will come around to help.

The waiting time was not long, and Zhang Changgui came back soon, apparently nearby.

"Xiaojing is back, everything is going well this far away." Zhang Changgui said with a smile the first time he opened the door. It belongs to the concern of the elders for the younger generation, not a simple cooperative relationship.

These years have passed, Zhang Changgui has also aged a lot, and he is no longer the shrewd guy who sold toilet chips. Perhaps because he has contacted more people, and he has dealt with a lot of money, he has vaguely developed a Calm demeanor, the so-called rich and powerful, this is how people's demeanor is cultivated.

From the bottom of his heart, Zhang Changgui is extremely grateful to Yunjing. If it weren't for Yunjing, his family would not be able to live such a good life now, let alone a good life, food and clothing may be a problem.

When he saw Yunjing for the first time, he felt that Yunjing would definitely have a bright future. How could he know that his family has gained so much fame in just over ten years, and everything had to start from the first cooperation.

At that time, Yun Jing was only two years old. Thinking about it now, Zhang Changgui felt a little dreamy. Why did he believe Yun Jing's words for no reason at that time?

But it was also a coincidence that time, and now the fate of myself and my family has undergone earth-shaking changes.

Zhang Changgui is a very grateful person. He knows that he is not very capable, and he is not greedy for merit or aggressive. He only wants to do Yunjing's affairs well. Never be greedy, even because of Yunjing, the family has a good life now, always feel that he has got too much from Yunjing, he is a very self-sufficient person.

Yun Jing stood up and said, "Thank you, Uncle Zhang, for your concern. My nephew is fine. Please sit down. I have worked hard on you during this time."

For Zhang Changgui, Yun Jing sincerely regards him as an elder, if he hadn't accidentally mentioned something to his grandfather back then, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been apprenticed to Li Qiu himself.

Time is fate, who can say clearly about this kind of thing.

Back then Zhang Changgui's friendship with Yunjing was always in his heart, and it was meaningless to talk about repaying him. Acting is more rewarding than saying a thousand good words.

Yun Jing knew that Zhang Changgui was not an ambitious person, giving too much would only harm him, giving him a lifetime of wealth, it is still possible to compare the top with the lack and the bottom with more than enough.

"What's the hard work? Every day I just contact customers to settle accounts. It's so easy. Compared with the days when I got up early and worked late but couldn't even maintain food and clothing, I almost wake up laughing every day in my dreams." Zhang Changgui sat down and said with a smile, without saying anything If you are grateful, everything is self-evident.

At this time, Liu Dazhuang sent a pot of tea and some pastries, and then went out to work. After all, they were just servants, and they were very clear about their identities, and there was no relationship because they watched Yunjing grow up. Just feel how to make a happy move.

After pouring a cup of tea for Zhang Changgui, Yun Jing sat down and said, "Uncle Zhang, how is your family doing?"

"It's all good. I bought a new house and hired a teacher for my boy. Now my boy is engaged, but he's not yet married. Your aunt has been talking about your kindness, always I want to invite you to my house for a meal, but I’m afraid I’ll disturb you..." Speaking of home, Zhang Changgui had a smile on his face. Today’s life is like a dream, especially for his son who can read and write. It is not enough to be blind for a lifetime. If the family business accumulates a few more generations, it is not hopeless that there will be a real scholar in the family in the future.

Reading and literacy are different from "scholars". It is very difficult for ordinary people to step into the circle of scholars unless they are supported by mentors like Yunjing.

After listening carefully, Yun Jing said with a smile: "Thanks to Uncle Zhang and your family in the store, my nephew was unable to congratulate the housewarming when I bought a new house, and I will definitely make up for Brother Xiaohu's wedding in the future. I will finish my work at the end of the year." For a while, I will definitely visit Uncle Zhang’s house to bother me, and then don’t worry about cooking for my aunt.”

"Haha, how come, Xiaojing can go, what is that called, flamboyant, how can it be annoying, it's too late to be happy", Zhang Changgui said cheerfully.

Now that Yun Jing's status is getting higher and higher, he still treats their family the same as before, which makes him feel very emotional. After all, there are many white-eyed wolves in this world who are not recognized by their relatives after prosperity.

After exchanging pleasantries, Zhang Changgui hesitated after thinking for a while and said, "Xiaojing, business is getting better and better now, earning a lot of money. Do you want to change the share you set at the beginning? Don't get me wrong, the main thing is You have given too much, and I feel uneasy..."

Yun Jing listened carefully to what he said, shook his head and smiled and said: "Uncle Zhang, don't say that, you are always busy in the store, you deserve that share, and I think it is less, so in the future Don't say such things again"

"Xiaojing, you... hey..." Zhang Changgui didn't know what to do for a while.

Yun Jing smiled and said: "Uncle Zhang, I understand what you mean, don't feel that I have taken advantage of me. Speaking of which, if it weren't for your management, the store would not have such a scale now, and, farther away, my nephew would still Thank you for your support in the past.”

"Oh, Xiaojing, you said it was too far away, I won't mention it, just follow what you said." Zhang Changgui hurriedly said, it would be boring to delve into these things, but now it's good.

Instead of continuing this topic, Zhang Changgui said, "Xiaojing, do you want me to reconcile the account books with you over the past few months?"

"Don't bother Uncle Zhang. I have to go home later. Mother is waiting for me at home. I'm afraid I don't have enough time." Yun Jing shook his head and said, this is of course an excuse, he didn't say clearly that he wouldn't read the account book, and he wouldn't read it now. It saves people from thinking too much when looking at the ledger one day.

"That's fine, let me know when you want to check the account book..."

After chatting with Zhang Changgui for a while, Yunjing excused that he still had something to do and left first. After the agreement, he would visit his house and took some cut cakes with him when he left. The family probably got tired of eating them, but they took them back and shared them. It is also good to satisfy the children in the village.

Returning to the small courtyard in the outskirts, Song Yan had already bought back the cloth Yunjing needed, all of which were of high-quality fabrics, including cotton and silk, and the colors ranged from beautiful to simple, and there were more than a dozen of them.

"Master, are you satisfied? If not, I'll sell it again." Song Yan asked when presenting the bought cloth to Yunjing.

After checking them one by one, Yun Jing nodded and said, "That's right, that's all. You don't need to buy any more. You wrap it up with a piece of cloth, and I'll take it back later."

"Good young master", Song Yan nodded, and didn't mention helping to send Yunjing back. Over the years, Yunjing has never brought the young master's habits back to the village. Less, because I don't want to create too much estrangement with the villagers because of these.

There is one thing to say, under Yunjing's deliberate actions all the time, although he is a famous scholar, the villagers don't think he is superior, and he is still the boy they watched growing up.

Speaking of this, Song Yan slapped his forehead and said: "By the way, young master, I sent a batch of things from the post station before. I signed for it for you and put it in the next room. Look?"

"Oh, you said this, I should have bought it on the way back from my study tour, and sent it back through the post station. This is only the first batch, and there will be many more in the future. Please remember to sign for it. I will go and see what has arrived first," Yun said. Jing smiled and walked towards the next room.

On the way back, he bought a lot of things and mailed them back. The address is written here. In just a few days, the first batch has arrived.

At present, there are two large boxes sent back. Yunjing saw that it was sent from the next state. It was the last stop on his way back and the first to arrive.

They are not valuables either, most of them are local specialties of that place, including clothes embroidery, jewelry, drinks, snacks and preserved fruits...

Looking at the sky outside, Yun Jing thought for a while, and took out more than a dozen gift boxes from the mailed items. These gift boxes included nourishing medicinal herbs, jade jewelry, embroidered handkerchiefs, exquisite bronze mirrors, and rouge powder. .

Taking out these things, Yunjing wrapped them in a piece of cloth, and then took out two sets of clothes and some food from the mailed things and handed them to Song Yan, saying: "These are for you, you have followed me all these years to fulfill your duties , I will not treat you badly, not all, there will be more in the future, I bought a lot of things, and I will send them back one after another, you take these first."

"Master, how did this happen?" Song Yan said in astonishment, feeling extremely moved in his heart.

Yun Jing said: "If you give it to you, you can keep it. The days ahead are still very long, and there are still many places that will need you in the future. Just don't think I'm stingy."

"How come...thank you, young master", Song Yan quickly shook his head and smiled, accepted the things Yunjing gave, and hugged him tightly, his eyes were a little red when he lowered his head.

He was an orphan, he lived in Li Qiu's house since he was a child, he had no relatives and no reason, and he hardly received any gifts. Yunjing still didn't forget to buy gifts for him when he was away from studying abroad, which moved him very much, knowing that Yunjing didn't treat him as an outsider, I swear in my heart that I will work hard for Yunjing in the future.

Next, Yunjing carried the package he had packed before and said, "Pack up the rest of the things, and I will take them back with the cloth later. As for the things now, I will send them to my wife first."

Originally, Yunjing planned to visit his wife after the things he bought arrived, but since he arrived today, he didn't have to wait and sent them directly.

Master Li Qiu is not at home, senior brothers and sisters are also away all year round, and most of the time the master's house is only the teacher's wife. These years, the teacher's wife treats Yunjing like her own son, Yunjing has no reason not to visit her.

"Master, let me get it for you," Song Yan hurriedly put down his things and said.

Yun Jing shook his head and said, "No, I'll just go there myself."

Song Yan no longer insisted.

So Yunjing went straight to the master's house with his things.

When passing the yamen of Niujiao Town, Yun Jing found that the atmosphere here was a bit serious, the mayor personally came forward, took a casual look, Yun Jing didn't think much, and came to the courtyard of the master's house after a while.

There is no change from when Yunjing came here for the first time, but it is the first time for the class to step into this door, and Yunjing's fate has come to this step.

What would you have been like if you hadn't entered this door in the first place?

Shaking his head, Yun Jing didn't think too much about it, because it didn't make any sense.

However, when Yun Jing was ten meters away from the gate of the master's house, he suddenly felt several extremely fierce auras locked on him, which made him stop and raise his eyebrows slightly.

"Innate masters, and not just one, four in total, and all of them are in the late innate stage, and none of them are at the bottom of the level in the late innate stage!" Feeling the fierce aura, Yunjing's heart froze.

Could it be that someone has set their sights on Master's house?

Thinking of this, Yun Jing remained calm, but he already had killing intent in his heart. If these people were really malicious and endangered his wife, he would not mind killing them all, and he would also uproot the existence behind them.

The master's kindness in nurturing him, the master's wife is as close as a son to him, Yunjing will never allow anyone to threaten this place!
Thoughts flickered, Yunjing Nianli silently followed those auras and looked over.

Of the four congenital late-stage masters, two were in the courtyard of the master's house, and they were actually wearing servant clothes, and the other two were outside the courtyard, pretending to be ordinary people and walking quietly.

If you look at it from a high altitude, these four people include all four directions of Master's house inside and outside.

Just when Yun Jing was thinking about turning around and leaving, first trying to find a way to calmly grab someone to find out the situation, the side door of Li Qiu's house opened, and Manager Zhao came out, seeing Yun Jing froze for a moment, and immediately said pleasantly, "Master Yun, come here!" La"

While speaking, Manager Zhao immediately turned to the room and said, "What are you doing in a daze, Master Yun is here, please open the front door quickly."

Yun Jing is Li Qiu's only apprentice. As a mantle inheritor, his status is no worse than that of Li Qiu's own son, and even higher than Li Qiu's own son on some occasions. He needs to open the door to welcome him now.

Interrupted by Manager Zhao, Yun Jing had no choice but to suppress his thoughts for the time being, raised his head and said with a smile, "Guan Zhao, long time no see, how are you doing recently? I just came back after going on a study tour for a while, and came to visit my teacher."

"I, I'm fine. No wonder I haven't seen Master Yun for a while. So I went to study abroad. Please come in. The old lady is at home. She has been thinking about you all this time. Madam must be very happy to know that Master Yun is here." , Guanshi Zhao, who didn't know what he was going to do when he was going out, immediately gave up his own affairs and welcomed Yunjing into the door in person.

Strange to say, when Manager Zhao greeted Yunjing through the main entrance so respectfully, the four people who locked Yunjing before stopped paying attention to him, leaving Monk Yunjing Zhang Er puzzled.

It seems that those people are protecting this place, and their appearance has aroused their vigilance?

Thinking this way in his heart, Yun Jing did not rule out this possibility. After all, his master now has a high position and authority. When Jing left, there were no masters here.

But Yun Jing did not relax his vigilance because of this, he would not allow any existence that threatened his wife.

After entering the door, Yunjing walked to the middle hall familiarly, and felt that it was necessary to find out more, so as not to flood the Dragon King Temple in time, so he asked: "Guan Zhao, has anyone come to the house during this time?"

"Come here? No, you know, Young Master Yun. After the master left, the old lady seldom went out, and it was not convenient for the lady to open the door to welcome guests when the master was not at home. Therefore, almost no one came at home during this time, but Lingtang came twice to chat with Madam," Zhao Guanshi thought for a while and shook his head.

No one came?
Yun Jing frowned, secretly thinking that those guys really have bad intentions?

Seeing Yun Jing frown, Zhao Guanshi asked curiously, "Why did Young Master Yun say that?"

Guanshi Zhao is not an outsider, Yun Jing expressed his worries, and said in a low voice: "Guanshi Zhao, when I was at the door just now, I found several sharp auras locked on me. This question, I don't know them, and the master is not at home, so it's better to be careful."

Hearing what Yun Jing said, Manager Zhao immediately smiled and said: "So what Young Master Yun said is this, you misunderstood, just now I thought you were talking about whether outsiders came to the door, and I didn't realize it for a while. As for them, you Are you talking about four people? Don’t worry, they are not outsiders. They were sent by the master to protect the house half a year ago. Before I could notify you, you went on a study tour. Don’t worry about them. I passed you, so I will pay attention, don't think too much"

"So that's how it is," Yun Jing heaved a sigh of relief, feeling that his feelings were misunderstood.

In fact, it is right to think about it. Half a year ago, I am afraid that Master Li Qiu's Lei Huo Army had already completed preparations to start the Northern Expedition. The Lei Huo Army is so important. Li Qiu's family, how could they be unprepared here?After all, no matter whether Li Qiu himself or his family had an accident, it was a big event for the entire Lei Huo army, and the Dynasty naturally took this into consideration.

Smiling, Manager Zhao said: "Don't worry, Young Master Yun, they will pay attention if they don't know you before, and I will introduce you both when I have time, so as not to cause any misunderstandings."

"Alright," Yun Jingting nodded.

Talking, the two came to the central hall, not the living room, but Li Qiu's family's usual residence. Now that Yunjing has grown up, it is not suitable to go to the backyard, and it is a family, so there is no need to bring the living room.

"I heard that Xiaojing is here, where is he? I haven't seen you for a while, let my wife take a look."

Before entering the door, Yun Jing heard footsteps and the kind voice of his wife.

Yunjing's mistress is very simple in her attire, just like the first time she saw her. She didn't wear gold and silver for her appearance and her own status just because of Li Qiu's high status. As a small family, she has always kept a low profile.

The years have not left too many traces on her body, she looks more than 30 years old now, firstly, she has been well maintained, and secondly, Yunjing has not been stingy in taking care of her over the years.

"Master, Jing'er is here to see you," Yun Jing immediately put down the gift and saluted.

Ji Yun hurriedly supported Yun Jing and reproached her: "You child, why are you being polite to Mrs. Mistress, look at you, go out to study for a month, eat and sleep in the open, and you've lost weight, and Mistress will cook some dishes for you later"

I have obviously grown taller and stronger, but where have I lost weight?Yunjing couldn't laugh or cry.

But Master's wife's concern made Yunjing's heart warm.

"Jing'er hasn't eaten the meal made by Mrs. Shi's wife for a long time. I'm so hungry, I want to eat three bowls of rice later," Yun Jing said seriously, holding up three fingers.

Ji Yun was obviously very happy, and said happily: "You said this, you are not allowed to leave if you can't finish eating, come, sit here, and talk to Mrs. Shi, you don't know, none of you children are by your side during this time , but I'm bored."

"Well, Master, please slow down, oh yes, this is a gift I brought you, I don't know what you like, so I just bought some during the study tour"

"You child, being human is the best gift..."
