Chapter 25
"Didn't you go back to your hometown to make a living?" Under the candlelight, Zeng Xiaoxiao asked Zhang Fang who was doing all the work for her.
Zhang Fang thanked Zeng Xiaoxiao for saving his life, and once wrote a letter to inform Zeng Xiaoxiao of his whereabouts.One is to reassure Zeng Xiaoxiao about his situation, and the other is to express his determination to serve Zeng Xiaoxiao at any time.
When Zeng Xiaoxiao saw the letter, she didn't take it seriously. She thought that she would be separated from each other and had no chance to see each other again, but she didn't expect the goodbye to come so quickly.
"Miss, after I returned to my hometown, I got a job. This time I came to the imperial city to sell the goods of my boss, and then buy some goods to sell back." Zhang Fang poured a cup of tea for Zeng Xiaoxiao, dusted Dust off the stool, sat down and said.
"Oh, what kind of goods did you take?" Zeng Xiaoxiao asked casually.
"It's nothing, it's not a big deal, just some things from the girl's house, I'm afraid the lady will laugh at you if you tell them." Zhang Fang scratched his head, grinned his big white teeth, and laughed innocently.
"Miss, did you offend some powerful person? Why are you being chased by men in black while you're out late at night?" Zhang Fang continued.
"Hey, they're just villains. I've been blamed, and notices about my arrest will be posted all over the streets and alleys tomorrow." Zeng Xiaoxiao took a sip of tea, pursed his lips, with a helpless and bitter expression.
Zhang Fang was not shocked when he heard this, but instead patted the table and said angrily: "If anyone touches you, first step over my Zhang Fang's corpse!"
The sudden sound made Zeng Xiaoxiao a little dazed.
She never expected that her unintentional act of kindness would make others willing to sacrifice their lives for her.
"Why are you arguing! In the middle of the night, others are not allowed to sleep!" The shouting and cursing came from the next door, which broke Zeng Xiaoxiao's thoughts.
"Hush." Seeing this, Zeng Xiaoxiao quickly signaled Zhang Fang not to speak.
"Zhang Fang, it's very late. Everyone in the inn is resting. Let's talk about it tomorrow." Zeng Xiaoxiao said in a low voice.
As a narcolepsy sufferer, she knows exactly how uncomfortable it can be to be woken up from sleep.
"Okay, miss, you have a good rest tonight. Call me anytime if you have any orders. I'll be in the guest room opposite you." Zhang Fang followed suit and responded in a low voice.
He closed the door gently, and did not forget to refill Zeng's little teacup when he was done.
In the dead of night, Zeng Xiaoxiao was extremely tired, after a simple wash, he fell into a deep sleep.
the next day.
"Dong dong dong." There was a knock on the door.
Zeng Xiaoxiao was already awake at this moment, but she didn't dare to make a sound, and tightly grasped the foot of the quilt.Zeng Xiaoxiao looked at the window, looked up and down to see if there was any hiding place, she was thinking of thousands of ways to escape in her mind.
"Dong dong dong." The knock on the door continued.
"No, it can't be Zhang Fang. He knows his situation, so he will definitely report his name." Zeng Xiaoxiao thought to himself.She held up the vase and walked to the door. Self-protection is the most important thing at present.
"Dong dong dong." The knock on the door rang again.
Zeng Xiaoxiao held the vase in both hands, her eyes were a little flustered, she was ready to knock him unconscious at any moment.
"Gentlemen, this is my room, what can I do for you?" Zhang Fang's voice came from outside the door, with a little politeness.
"It's a good thing the door didn't open." Zeng Xiaoxiao took two steps back to the corner of the door, thinking in her heart that she quietly put down the vase, and hunkered down, trying not to make any noise.
"Have you seen this man?"
"I'm a foreigner. I just came to the imperial city. How can I know anyone?"
"look carefully!"
"Eh... this person seems a little familiar."
"Ok?"
"Officer, let go, you are grabbing my collar, making me speechless."
Hearing the conversation outside, Zeng Xiaoxiao was startled into a cold sweat. "Could it be that Zhang Fang is going to betray me? Last night, he pretended to be repaying his favor. Could it be a trap?" Thinking of this, Zeng Xiaoxiao regretted it. He shouldn't trust others and put himself in danger.
"This is a small thought, you take it to drink tea."
"Hurry up, or I'll arrest you!" Seeing the money Zhang Fang handed over, the official lord softened his tone, let go of his hand, and said in a warning.
"I did see this person last night. At that time, this person..." Zhang Fang showed embarrassment and faltered.
"What is this man doing! Don't tell me! Say it quickly!" The official drew out a long knife and put it on Zhang Fang's neck.
If you dare to deceive officials, no amount of money will work.
"This man ran towards the west gate of the city. It's all because the villain didn't help to be more careful and help the official catch him. The villain deserves death, and he deserves death." Zhang Fang's voice trembled, and the voice of begging for mercy attracted him. Many people came, and they chatted and chatted.
"Let's go!" The sound of the official closing the knife sounded, followed by a rush of running, from near to far, and gradually disappeared.
"Squeak." Zhang Fang pushed the door open and came in, not daring to make too much noise, he carefully closed the door.
Worried about Zeng Xiaoxiao, Zhang Fang quickly looked around for a week, but Zeng Xiaoxiao was no longer in the empty room.
"It's over!" He patted his thigh in fear, clenched his hands, and turned to go out to search.
"Miss must have gone out, it's very dangerous outside at this time!" Thinking of this, Zhang Fang became even more flustered.
"I'm here." Seeing Zhang Fang's appearance, Zeng Xiaoxiao couldn't help laughing.
According to the reputation, Zeng Xiaoxiao was actually sitting in the corner next to the door, still looking like he was joking.
"Oh, my lady, you scared me to death. I thought you were running around. There are notices everywhere to arrest you, so be careful." Zhang Fang was so excited that he almost cried Thankfully, Zeng Xiaoxiao didn't go out.
"Don't worry, I won't run around." Zeng Xiaoxiao said with a smile.
In fact, Zhang Fang didn't need to worry at all. Zeng Xiaoxiao would definitely not run around, because she didn't have time to run around.She has always been snoozing, and if the officers and soldiers hadn't knocked on the door, she would have slept until the afternoon.
"How's the situation outside?" Zeng Xiaoxiao stood up, shook the dust off his back, and asked after sitting down.
"Sure enough, as you expected, today I went to the street to sell hibiscus ointment, and I saw your notices posted all over the streets, saying that you murdered and absconded in fear of crime, and are currently being arrested throughout the city. I came back early because I was worried about you. I didn't expect the officers and soldiers to come to check the ward just in time, but fortunately I came back in time." After Zhang Fang finished speaking, he was still terrified, with a tense and serious expression.
"Hibiscus cream? Show me." Zeng Xiaoxiao's sudden words cheered Zhang Fang up, "Isn't this young lady too big-hearted? At this time, you still want to dress yourself up?"
It's just that Zhang Fang didn't say what he was saying.
Zhang Fang paused, thinking that Zeng Xiaoxiao just wanted to dress himself up, so he took out the hibiscus paste from the bag and handed it to Zeng Xiaoxiao.
