As soon as he walked out of the inner room, the second master's eyebrows and eyes moved slightly.

The inner room was rather dark, but her white gown was like a gleam of light in the gloom, and the hem of the skirt was slightly rippling as she moved forward and back, like the wind blowing willows, and like dew rolling powder lotus.

He kept his composure and waved to Shi Jin, motioning for her to come over.

Shi Jin hesitated for a moment, followed the Second Master's wishes and walked in front of him.Before he could stand still, the second master took her into his arms.

She instinctively wanted to move, but he held her waist.Late autumn's clothes were a little thicker, he pinched her slender waist, he felt that it was not as accessible as in summer, and there was a little dissatisfaction in his eyes immediately.

Turning her to him, he looked at her with low eyebrows and asked her, "Well, what happened just now?"

"The slave accidentally kicked the dwarf over." Shi Jin said to him with eyes that could not see clearly.

The second master didn't believe it, knowing that she was just playing tricks on himself, he pinched her chin with his rough fingertips, forcing her to raise her eyes.

Shi Jin looked at him obediently, his almond eyes were like two pills of black mercury raised in white mercury, he did not get angry because of his misunderstanding, nor did he have the greedy desire like other maids, like a pool without ripples, calm To calm.

He looked at her, and after a while, he finally confirmed that she was not lying.

This realization made his heart feel restless along with Wei Wei.

"You don't have anything to say to Master?" Second Master laughed angrily, this woman is that heartless.

He originally thought that his knowledge was deep enough, but he didn't want her to be more calm than him.

Seeing the irritation in Second Master's words, Shi Jin hesitated for a moment, then pursed his lips lightly, "It's not like..."

The second master stroked her chin and motioned her to continue.

His fingers were slightly rough, and when they brushed across her slippery chin, an inexplicable itch tickled her heart.

Shi Jin forcibly suppressed the trembling that seemed to be scratched by a feather, and lowered his eyelids slightly, "Second Master knows that the victims are in distress, why did he raise the price? Even if the temple fair is prosperous, what does it do to the victims?"

The second master withdrew his finger, played with her weak and boneless hand, as if it was some incredible toy, and asked her lazily, "If we don't raise the price of food, the victims of the disaster will be able to buy it?"

With just this one sentence, Shi Jin was speechless.

She withdrew the hand pinched by the second master, frowning slightly, "But that shouldn't be..."

"I just ask you, what would you do if I was just a profiteer who didn't care about the flood?" Second Master asked her.

This question is not easy to answer.If the answer is that it doesn't hurt me, I am afraid that the second master thinks she is hypocritical; if the rebuttal is that morality should be put first, I am afraid that the second master will reprimand her again.

Shi Jin blinked, his eyes flicked across his handsome eyebrows, over Zhong Lingyuxiu's nose, and landed on the side of Second Master's slightly pursed lips, and finally broke into a shallow smile, "I believe in Second Master."

Sly little fox!

Second Master Qi hated her clever mouth, and loved her softness after the rain, dew, and wind and frost. He only pinched the center of his brows, and a faint smile fainted on his lips, "It's a matter here, are you staying here?" Here, or follow me to Nanyang Mansion?"

Although taking her out of the house was done on a whim, but she is a weak woman after all, so there is no need to follow him to take risks.

As she herself said, she is a cattail that grows again when the spring breeze blows, she is both tough and strong, and she can always seek the most beneficial way of survival in various environments.

She thought that she would definitely choose to stay in Xiangyang after saying this.However, Shi Jin didn't even think about it, so he knelt down in front of him seriously, his eyes were more serious than ever.

"Second Master," she called him, clasping her hands on her chest, looking determined, "I know you are a slave. It's just that besides being your maid, I'm also a doctor. Although Shi Jinxue There are not many of them, but when my father was around, he always said that the doctors were benevolent, so how can the servants do nothing when they see the suffering victims?"

She thought that there was nothing inappropriate about what she said, but the words "benevolence of a doctor" made her face a little red.

Every time the second master praised her benevolence as a doctor, he always had a different meaning.If it was not a last resort, she would not dare to look directly at these four words.

However, after hearing her righteous words, the second master only gave her a casual look, and even lost his composure and conversation just now.

He stood up and walked out, somehow, his voice was tinged with some inexplicable fear, "He's just trying to catch his name."

Shi Jin was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Second Master meant by that.

Before she had time to ask, she saw the second master lift the curtain and go out, leaving her alone in the main room for a while.
.
Although the second master's temper was inexplicable, Shi Jin showed a little relief from the trembling.

It's not that she's not afraid of being punished, it's just that she's used to observing words and actions and has some experience.These days, I found that once the second master is angry, he doesn't bother to care about others.It couldn't be better for Shi Jin, it doesn't matter if he is happy or not.

Immediately, she asked the little maid to arrange a side room for her servants to live in, and found some hot water, and she was so comfortable that she took a bath.

He hurried on his way for several days in a row, but he didn't even have time to take a shower.It would be great to be able to wash away the lead dust all over my body right now.

After taking a bath, she found a wooden comb with missing teeth, smoothed out her hair, felt at ease, and then suddenly fell on the bed, never wanting to get up again.

How can there be a comfortable bed in a carriage?Shi Jin didn't even want to eat, he just slept soundly and drowsily.

She slept like a prefect, and didn't wake up until it was getting late and the sun was setting.When I fell asleep again, when my eyelids were heavy, I suddenly heard the door open, and then someone came calmly from the door step by step.

In the dark night, Shi Jin thought it was the little maid, and immediately hummed twice, with a soft nasal sound in his voice, which was quite different from before, "Let me sleep for a while... Get up and eat later..."

After all, she shrank her neck back into the quilt as if she was afraid of the cold.

However, the man just stood in front of the bed and stared at her for a long time, then said for a while, "What's the matter? And let the master carry you into the carriage?"

Shi Jin was startled, struggled to open his heavy eyelids, and faintly saw Er Ye standing on the bedside with his head down.

Her drowsiness disappeared in an instant.

At the moment, he was in a hurry to find his outer clothes, and said to the second master, "This servant thinks that the second master will spend the night here tonight, it's because this servant has neglected his duty..."

While talking, he put on the slanted jacket with wild rice stems embroidered with four-season flowers, and gathered up his loose hair, and simply tied it in a bun when he touched the black, and the rest of the hair hung down on his shoulders and neck along with the bun. side.

The second master did not condemn her, but said lightly, "If you want to go, gather at the gate in a quarter of an hour."

After all, he went by himself.

Shi Jin calmed down a bit, fumbled to light a candle, put the light blue round neck jacket with a rabbit fur collar into the indigo cloth bag, and took a plate of snacks from the table to wrap it up. After confirming that nothing was missed, he carried his luggage and went out.

The courtyard was so dark that it was impossible to see the road clearly due to the lack of stars and moon in the past few days.

Fortunately, there was a big red lantern in the shape of a folded cylinder on the bench at the entrance of the ear room, which probably was left behind by the second master.

She hurriedly picked up the lantern and walked out in the direction she remembered during the day.

The yard is not big, she walked fast, and after a while, she saw a pile of bright torches shaking by the door.

Shi Jin's heart skipped a beat, and when he stepped over the high threshold of the main entrance, he saw five carriages with tarpaulin sheds parked at the entrance.Around the carriage, there are cavalrymen with swords on their waists and torches in their hands, waiting in full force.

She was not sure which carriage to get into, when she heard the sound of horseshoes approaching.She looked up, and saw the second master sitting on a shiny black steed with a dark black cloak, stretching out a hand towards her.
