C237 Entering the county city at night and panicking (1)

Seeing the old master, the snowball wanted to stand up to welcome him, but before he could move, his tail was grabbed by a delicate tug. The culprit, however, was completely unaware of the evil that he had done to the Meow Alien. Instead, he burst out in excited laughter.

Fu Heng was startled, but his heart relaxed, he waved for a servant to come over, and instructed: "Just as I said, let's put it away, we have already found it."

The attendant hurriedly passed the message left and right. Only then did the farce stop.

The Lady Mu supported Xu Mingwei and got on the carriage, explaining in detail, "When it was just starting, the servant lifted the curtain to see what was happening, and turned around to see a big white cat crouching beside Xin Jieer. Dahran's wife was afraid of wild cats, if she was alarmed, she would scratch Xin Jieer's face and did not dare cry out. Unexpectedly, Xin Jieer had already woken up. She had the same big eyes as the cat and was very brave. She reached out and grabbed the cat's tail. Lady Xiao Lan raised her hand to hit her, but the cat bared its fangs at her, thinking that the one Lady Xiao Lan was going to hit was Xin Jieer, someone who wanted to protect her master. The servant looked at the familiar cat as if it was raised by a granny, then looked at the cat that did not even stretch its claws when Xin Jieer patted it, only then did he become even more confident. When I met Wan Rong and asked, it was because I ran away like a cat. "

Xu Mingwei patted the snowball's head and nodded, "Luckily we came here, otherwise, we would all be in the wilderness, and would not be able to find anything."

"Maybe I missed you, so I smelled something coming to this car."

Lady Mu looked up and Fu Heng actually followed them in. He gave the two Lam's wife a look and everyone left quietly, leaving the couple to talk in the carriage.

"People say that cats and dogs have spirituality after being raised for a long time. Looking at it today, it seems that it's not a lie." Fu Heng smiled as he carried his daughter. At the same time, he saved snowball's tail from the delicate demonic claws.

Once the snowball gained its freedom, it immediately jumped towards Xu Mingwei's leg, rubbing and moaning as it acted coquettishly. Fu Heng did not expect her to be so dishonest, luckily she reacted quickly and hugged firmly, preventing her daughter from falling out. Thinking of this, she pretended to be angry and patted Jiao Jiao's little butt, lecturing, "You're not obedient again, but you still beat me up a little."

He did not even bother to look in his direction as he smiled and said, "How is a cat like you protecting its master? When I hit Jiao Jiao, it only snore."

Xu Mingwei smiled as she looked at him, then pulled the snowball in front of Jiao Jiao to touch her hands, saying, "It recognizes you, knows that you are its father, and can't be compared to Lady Xiao Lan."

Fu Heng was just finding a topic to talk to her, he did not mind about the details, he lowered his head and continued to play with the kitten, in the midst of the peace, he heard Dong Zi coming over to ask, "Master, the escort leader said that every place has been set up, and is about to move?"

Both Fu Heng and Xu Mingwei stopped laughing. Fu Heng coughed lightly and said, "It's not early yet, so we should hurry on our way. Otherwise, we might miss our roost at night."

Xu Mingwei nodded, put down the snowball and took Jiao Jiao Jiao from his hands. The moment the two of them got close, she could clearly feel that Fu Heng still wanted to say something, but their gazes met each other in midair. In the end, he only smiled, lifted the curtain and walked out.

The two Lam's wife s and the rest returned back to the carriage, and after a loud whooshing sound from the horse whip, the carriage started to turn again.

The snowball swung its tail restlessly, as if it hated to ride on carriages. Xu Mingwei caught the snowball and rubbed its claws and chin, finally calming it down. Jiao Jiao was still a child after all. After having fun for a while, she was already tired. She hugged the snowball's tail and went to sleep. The Dahran's wife carefully covered her with a blanket and stood on both sides, doing needlework.

Xu Mingwei gently lifted a corner of the curtain. Not far away, Fu Heng was riding a red horse, holding onto a whip and saying something to Duan Yunping.

What did he want to say to me just now?

At this time, Fu Heng seemed to have sensed something, and turned back to look at the carriage. He felt an indescribable sense of guilt, and loosened the curtain in his hand, allowing his heart to thump wildly against the carriage wall.

After leaving He Lanjiashan and Lian Qiubai, the Fu Clan's people walked for another ten days on the road before arriving at the inner region of Pinglu County. Fu Heng and the escort company were heading towards the south. Fu Heng and the escort company had gotten the other half of the money and instructed Dong Zi to pass this message to everyone, causing the convoy to leave the logo behind. Everyone paid attention and listened to everything around them as they quietly entered the town.

Seeing his actions, Xu Mingwei was laughing in his heart, this man entered his character very quickly, as soon as he arrived, he already started to pay attention to the atmosphere in Pinglu County.

Dong Zi had always been clever, as soon as he entered the city gate, he took the time to inquire about the location of the county magistrate's office while buying snacks, and returned to report to Fu Heng and Duan Yunping. However, the latter shook his head and laughed, "There's still a six day time limit to anyone on the book, why not find an inn to rest, and then carefully differentiate?"

understood what he meant. To stay at the bottom, it was easier to understand than to stand at the top, he thought that this long journey was indeed tiring, and he did not know what the yamen authorities looked like. After a long time, when no one was around, he was afraid that it would be hard to clean everything up after a day or two. With these two calculations, he nodded his head and said, "We shall do as Yun Ping has said, first we will find a clean house, and then we will tell the outside world that we are wealthy merchants seeking marriage.

When Xu Mingwei heard that she was not going to the yamen first, she was surprised and did not inquire further in front of everyone. Following the local's directions, the group finally arrived at the largest Hongfu Inn in the county. Five rooms per room for one tael of silver was required, and the other servants were even more numerous, almost filling up the entire room of the inn. Hearing that this person was a rich person from the capital, she was even more overjoyed. She came and went all over the place personally, and even when Nanny Xu asked him to borrow a kitchen envoy, she quickly agreed.

Wan Rong felt that the bedding in the tavern was not clean and used her own to change it. After the bed was tidied up, the hot water was ready as well. The inn staff member was about to pour hot water into the wooden bucket when he was stopped by Peaches. "We don't need your things here. We only brought hot water."

He restrained his curiosity and did not ask any further. When he sent the second bucket of hot water upstairs, he noticed that there was a new tub in the clean room. It was made with camphor wood, which was much better than the one they used in the shop. He was speechless. Good boy, a rich man from the capital actually brought his own bathtub. He didn't feel clumsy at all.

Just as he finished this thought in his mind, he looked up and saw the little girl who had just spoken to him. She easily picked up the entire bucket of hot water with one hand and poured it into the bath barrel. The shop assistant was astonished. That was fifty to sixty catties of water! Normally, a man would need to have two hands in order to lift it. What did this girl eat to grow up? What great strength!

Peaches did not know what he was thinking. Seeing that he was still standing there without moving, she got angry and said impatiently, "Just two buckets of water is not enough. Forget it, your hands and feet are slow too. Where's the kitchen?

The waiter came back to his senses and said a few words to each of them. He then went to the kitchen and got two more buckets of hot water from each of the two buckets. Just as he was about to carry one for her, he saw that the waiter had left with a bucket of hot water.

Peaches did not care about this. With the two buckets of hot water in her hands, her master's bath water was finally gathered. She went ahead to invite some people. Xu Mingwei had been tired since a long time ago, so without waiting for the peaches to hurry him up, he got Wan Rong to pack up his clothes and entered the clean room while unbuttoning the front of his shirt. She heard the sound of footsteps from behind and thought Wan Rong had caught up already, but she did not seem to mind. She said indifferently: "Help me massage my shoulders in a while, it's been a bit tight for these few days, it hurts a lot."

The person behind her did not make a sound. Xu Mingwei had already taken off half of her clothes, but she was suddenly alerted and immediately turned around to look. She realised that the one who followed her in was Wan Rong. It was Fu Heng. At this moment, a pair of pupils dyed with thick ink was staring at her without moving, like a leopard staring at a living creature.

She swallowed hard and said, "You didn't make a sound when you came in. It was a sudden shock."

Fu Heng did not speak, and walked forward step by step. Xu Mingwei taught him to frighten others with his eyes, as she unconsciously retreated. When her back pressed against the wall, she realized that she could no longer retreat. When she turned her head, Fu Heng was holding onto her face with one hand, closing his eyes lightly and kissing her.

Xu Mingwei subconsciously dodged to the side, and with that, he kissed her on the face. Their gazes met, and the two of them were stunned for a moment.

After who knows how long, Fu Heng straightened his body, looked at her lightly, and said, "I'll go call Wan Rong to come in."

Xu Mingwei stood there without making a sound, and only lightly nodded. After a while, he heard him talking to Wan Rong outside, and when she came back to her senses, Wan Rong actually smiled to herself and said, "I said that grandmother's shoulders are a little sore, and even specifically told me to pinch them more tightly."

She reached into the bath barrel to test the temperature of the water and said, "Grandmother, hurry up and use the hot water. It won't be nice if it gets cold later."

Listening to her, Xu Mingwei took off his clothes and sat down in the hot water.

"Just now, when Young Master went out, did his face look bad?" Xu Mingwei closed her eyes as she was suppressed by Wan Rong, and asked indifferently.

"When this servant sees the expression on this lord's face, it doesn't seem quick. It should be good." Wan Rong was not sure and only replied in a pleasant voice. He stole a glance at Xu Mingwei's face, and in an ordinary and indifferent manner, he could not see anything.
