Chapter 278 Persuasion
"Girl, you are really capable!"

Song Huaiyi praised.

Tong Zhu'er was taken aback when she heard the words, then chuckled lightly.

Song Huaiyi looked at her suspiciously, "Girl, am I wrong?"

Tong Zhu'er turned her head and looked at him with a smile, "Yes, it's not right. In my family, the capable ones are my mother, my eldest sister, and..."

Tong Zhu'er stopped suddenly.

"What else?"

Tong Zhu'er didn't speak, but bit her lower lip lightly.

Song Huaiyi looked at her expression at the moment, and said with some anxiety: "Girl, I... did I say something wrong?"

Tong Zhu'er shook her head and quickly turned her face away.

"No."

However, Song Huaiyi didn't hear what she said, all his thoughts were disturbed by the tear that fell from his face when Tong Zhu'er turned his face away.

"Girl, you have something sad."

He said for sure.

Tong Zhu'er didn't speak.

Song Huaiyi lowered his head and walked slowly, fiddling with the firewood in his hand.

After a while, Tong Zhu'er stood up and walked to the other side with big strides.

Song Huaiyi quickly stood up.

"...Are you going to take a pee too?"

After walking a few steps, Tong Zhu'er turned around and asked.

Song Huaiyi blushed and shook his head hastily.

Tong Zhu'er let out a "puchi" laugh, looked at him who was blushing and said, "You follow me, it's not because I can't think about it."

Song Huaiyi nodded, and said with a straight face: "Girl, life is beautiful. In this world, there is no obstacle that cannot be overcome."

"Don't worry, me, but I haven't lived enough."

Tong Zhuer said with a smile.

Song Huaiyi also laughed.

.........

After resting in the middle of the night, when the sky was bright, Tong Zhu'er slowly opened her eyes.

There is a man's coat on his body. Judging from its style, it belongs to the scholar from yesterday.

"Girl, are you awake?"

Just thinking of him, Tong Zhu'er heard the sound of surprise coming from behind.

She stood up, turned her face, and looked at the fruit wrapped in big leaves in the man's hand, "Did you go looking for fruit this morning?"

Song Huaiyi smiled shyly and nodded, "Girl, try it."

Tong Zhu'er took the fruit, wiped it casually, and took a small bite, "By the way, my name is Tong Zhu'er, what's your name?"

Song Huaiyi put the fruit that was near his mouth back into the leaves immediately. He straightened his clothes, combed his hair, looked himself up and down, and felt that there was nothing wrong, so he bowed to Tong Zhu'er , said: "Song Huaiyi in Yangzhou, I am grateful for the girl's rescue."

Tong Zhu'er stared at him blankly, and three words flashed in her mind, "Nerd!"

The fruit doesn't make you feel full, after Tong Zhu'er ate two to quench her thirst, she went to the river where she caught fish yesterday.

After Song Huaiyi watched her leave, he consciously picked up firewood and came over.

The two worked together, and after a while, a pot of delicious fish soup was ready.

Song Huaiyi looked at the gentleness, the way he was eating was also gentle, but the speed of eating made Tong Zhu'er stunned.

"...Girl, I just laughed."

Song Huaiyi put down the bamboo tube, and smiled embarrassedly at Tong Zhu'er.

Tong Zhu'er shook her head, but didn't say anything.

Song Huaiyi helped Tong Zhu'er to extinguish the life, and the two set off.

Along the way, Song Huaiyi chatted with Tong Zhu'er occasionally.

"Girl, where are you going?"

Tong Zhu'er paused, and looked around blankly.

Seeing this, Song Huaiyi didn't feel comfortable asking further questions. He changed the subject and said, "Girl, your accent doesn't look like a person from the capital city. Where is your hometown?"

"I'm from Qingzhou."

"Oh. Qingzhou is a good place. I plan to go to Qingzhou after I pass the exam this time." Song Huaiyi said.

"Well, Qingzhou is indeed a good place, you won't be disappointed if you go there." Tong Zhu'er said softly.

The two of them had nothing to say along the way, the surroundings were very quiet, with the wind blowing on their faces.

When passing through a dilapidated temple, it was already sunset.

Tong Zhu'er turned around and looked at Song Huaiyi, and said, "Young Master Song, thank you for seeing me off all the way. The capital city is at the second fork to the left that we passed before. Don't miss the exam day, my lord."

Along the way, Song Huaiyi followed her all the time.

Tong Zhu'er knew that he wanted to repay her life-saving grace.It is indeed inconvenient for a woman to travel alone, but Tong Zhu'er did not refuse his kindness, and silently accepted it.

Now that she has arrived at the place, she will naturally not let Song Huaiyi, who has something important to do, to see her off again.

"You girl, you must be careful."

Song Huaiyi said worriedly.

Tong Zhu'er smiled and nodded, watching him turn and leave.Immediately afterwards, Tong Zhu'er entered the ruined temple.

"girl----"

No one thought for a while, but Song Huaiyi came back again.

"Is there anything else, son?"

Tong Zhuer asked him.

"...Girl, it's too unsafe for a single woman to go out alone. I asked her where she was going before, but she didn't say anything, so there must be some unspeakable secrets. However, I still want to advise her, no matter what, It's not as important as your own safety. If possible, the girl should go back to her family as soon as possible."

The smile on Tong Zhu'er's face suddenly disappeared, and the loneliness between her brows made Song Huaiyi's heart also tugged.

It's been less than two days since he met Tong Zhu'er, but he couldn't help but see her as his savior.

That's why I'm so anxious and worried.

"My lord, you are right, but I have no way to go back to my parents."

Tong Zhu'er murmured.

If Song Huaiyi hadn't pricked up his ears and put all his attention on her, I'm afraid she wouldn't have heard her murmuring.

"Girl, do you know that when you disappear, your parents will be more worried, more anxious, and even more troubled."

"I know... But, I'm ashamed to see them. I have done wrong things, said wrong words, and hurt their hearts. I don't deserve to be their daughter."

Tong Zhu'er whimpered and cried bitterly.

"girl………"

"I insisted on being a concubine, and even said ugly things in front of my parents, I..." Tong Zhu'er seemed to have found a vent, and told Song Huaiyi the words buried deep in her heart.

The setting sun gradually sank, leaving only orange Huoshaoyun in the sky.

Song Huaiyi looked at the crying woman in front of him, his heart twitched slightly.

"Girl, Confucius said, if you know your mistakes, you can correct them, and there is nothing good about it. It is a good thing for a girl to know that she has hurt her parents' hearts. The girl's parents will be happy for her when they know about it. Girl, listen to me. Yan, go back and meet your parents. If you really don't want to go back, at least let them know that you are safe, girl. "
