Chapter 207 Love to play matchmaker
Countryside people all need to work in the fields, so they get up as soon as the rooster crows.
After calling twice, the door to the wing opened, and a young man dressed in moon-white attire slowly walked out.
His figure is as tall and straight as a green pine, his eyebrows are handsome, and his eyes are shining with an eye-catching luster.
Xia Qianqian waved to him and said brightly: "Master Mo, call your guards and come over for dinner."
The wall between the two houses was newly built. For safety reasons, some broken tiles and pepper branches were originally tied on the wall to prevent anyone from climbing on it.
At this time, those things were blocking her sight, and some pepper branches almost hurt her face.
It’s such a hindrance.
From now on, she will climb the wall a lot more.
Xia Qianqian carefully pinched one of the Zanthoxylum bungeanum branches with her fingers and pulled it out suddenly.
There were branches stuck in the dry cement, which were a bit difficult to pull out. She exerted a strong force, and her body fell back due to the uneven force. She was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she couldn't help but scream.
Under the porch, Ji Zimo's face changed slightly. He stepped on the ground with his soles and flew up to the wall.
He tapped his foot lightly on the wall, bent his body, and grabbed her arm.
Her body bounced back, and her other hand grabbed and hugged her like a reflex.
Ji Zimo stood as steady as a mountain on the top of the wall, while Xia Qianqian stood on the ladder, one hand being pulled by him, the other hand nervously hugging his legs, and her whole face buried under his knees.

"Ouch! I was scared to death!"
Frightened, she raised her head, a pair of black eyes staring into hers, with a playful luster in them.
"Hehehe!"
Xia Qianqian was extremely embarrassed. Just when she was about to explain, Yuan Bao came out of the side room and saw the scene in front of her, and asked in surprise: "What are you doing?"
Xia Qianqian quickly broke free from her hands, let go of her legs, "squeaked" and climbed down from the ladder. She pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Yuanbao, go wash your hands quickly. We have finished eating and have to go to school."
Yuan Bao looked at Sister's big red face and said in surprise: "Sister, do you have a fever?"
Xia Qianqian: "Ah? No. Go wash your hands quickly."
"Then why is your face so red?"
Yuan Bao, a little kid, was very mature at heart. He glanced at Ji Zimo who had fallen from the wall and suggested, "Sister, if you like Brother Mo, can you marry him?"
Yuanbao, does he want to be a matchmaker?
Xia Qianqian was speechless, "Yesterday it was Brother Hu, today it is Brother Mo, Yuanbao, are you afraid if you forget to sleep at night?"
"If it were Brother Mo, I wouldn't be afraid."
Yuan Bao said resolutely, "Anyway, he lives next door to our house. If you sleep with him at night, I won't be afraid."
This brat, does he dare to say anything casually now?
Xia Qianqian smiled awkwardly at Cuiyu.
She thought that if Yuan Bao messed up the mandarin duck chart, he would be furious like yesterday.
Who would have thought that there seemed to be a hint of joy in his brows, and he didn't seem to care about Yuan Bao's words.
"Stop it!" Xia Qianqian pulled Yuanbao aside, squatted down, looked into each other's eyes, and said solemnly: "Yuanbao, there are some things you can say. There are some things you can't say, do you understand?"
Yuan Bao shook his head in confusion, "Sister, what do you want to say?"
She was angry and annoyed, but she could only say angrily: "Don't talk nonsense about me getting married and who I'm marrying, do you understand?"
When Yuan Bao saw Sister, he was really angry. He stuck out his tongue and said coquettishly: "Sister, I understand."
The door of the Xia family was wide open, and a simple breakfast was placed on the stone table under the persimmon tree in the courtyard.
A bowl of soy milk, a portion of tofu curd per person, and freshly cooked steamed buns with mushrooms and vegetables.
The group had a simple meal.
Xia Qianqian went out and waited for Ji Zimo to get in the car. She picked up Yuan Bao and turned her head to see Wang Yueyue standing at the door next door, alone.
Xia Qianqian stood still, looked back and forth, and asked: "Wang Yueyue, where is your father's carriage? When will he take you to Jiangcheng?"
Wang Yueyue was a little shy and looked languid, "I don't know. My father didn't come back last night. This morning, I originally wanted to take Uncle Wang's ox cart, but unfortunately I didn't catch it."
In fact, she got up early.
However, her mother has been feeling unwell recently and has been lying in bed thinking wildly all day long.
When dreaming at night, she would often wake up, shouting that Zhang Cuicui was back to look for her.
In order to serve her mother, she delayed for a while in the morning.
"Then you come with us."
Xia Qianqian warmly invited them. After all, Wang Yueyue invited them to ride in her carriage every time.
"This..." Sitting in the car was Mr. Mo, who was also their husband.
Wang Yueyue once secretly glanced at Mr. Mo, and the coercion on his body made her heart palpitate to this day.
"It's okay, or I can wait a little longer." She declined politely.
"It will be too late if you wait any longer!"
Xia Qianqian stepped forward, grabbed her hand, came to the Qingzhang Carriage, opened the curtain and said hello, "Mr. Mo, our next door neighbor is also a student of our Guizi class. She needs a ride with us."

Ji Zimo glanced lightly and said, "Sit down!"
Behind her, Wang Yueyue took a deep breath, covered the joy in her eyes, and saluted respectfully: "Thank you, Mr. Mo."
She got in the car, but she just sat on the shaft and put her hands on the door frame of the car.
Xia Qianqian had nothing to do with her and let her go.
In the carriage, Ji Zimo was holding a book and looking at it, while Yuan Bao was flipping through the new picture album he bought yesterday.
Xia Qianqian opened the curtain of the car, stuck her head out, and chatted with Wang Yueyue, "I rarely saw your father come home in the past, but recently when you go to school, he picks you up and back every day. He is really thoughtful."
p>
"Dad has been very hard recently." Wang Yueyue lowered her head silently, looking a little depressed.
"Don't worry, your father didn't come back last night. Maybe he was delayed by something."
Xia Qianqian thought of that night when she ran into Wang Feng at the entrance of Xinghua Village, and couldn't help but said: "Have you been to the tofu workshop in Xinghua Village?"
Wang Yueyue shook her head, "If I want to eat tofu, I will definitely go to you or ask Aunt Li to buy it. Why should I choose to stay far away?"
She spoke seriously, and there was even a hint of complaint in her tone.
Unknown to Wang Yueyue, her father Wang Feng opened a tofu workshop in Xinghua Village.
This is a bit strange!
The Qing tent carriage unknowingly drove onto the main road. As soon as it turned the corner, a group of officers and soldiers stopped everyone.
The leader spread out a piece of white paper and was ordered to start collecting fingerprints of the village names again.
Xia Qianqian nodded and slowly held the hands under her sleeves together.
In full view of the public, how could she quietly put on fake fingerprints without being discovered?
While he was thinking about it, Ji Zimo, who had been silent all this time, said: "Geng Zhong, let's hurry up and let them see the token."
"Yes!"
Geng Zhong stepped forward and took out a golden token. The soldier took one look at it, stood aside and let the carriage go.
Along the way, the green tent carriage passed by quickly and arrived at Zhuxian Academy on time.
Xia Qianqian, Yuanbao and the other three got out of the car, thanked Mr. Mo, and turned around to enter the college.
In the Qingting carriage, Ji Zimo said in a deep voice: "If I remember correctly, the fingerprints of the villagers near Fu'an Village were collected twice before, and there was no fingerprint of Wang Feng among them."
Geng Zhongsu stood with his hands on one side, waiting for instructions.
"Go, no matter what, we must collect Wang Feng's fingerprints."
