Chapter 2 General, the iron tree is about to bloom
"Are you still used to living here?"
This voice is extremely pleasant, like the male anchor of a midnight love talk, hoarse, low, deep, yet tinged with coldness.
It touched Xia Jin’s heart so much!
"Thank you, General, for taking me in. I think it's okay."
Now, there were soldiers all around, looking at her strangely.
Although the man in front of her didn't show any surprise, Xia Jin still noticed that the corners of his mouth tightened slightly.
Probably, I feel very speechless...
Xia Jin just wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl in. She was already digging her toes in her cotton shoes. It was only a matter of time before she had three bedrooms and two living rooms!
"Why are there only you two and the others?" The summer resort originally had people posted here to guard the courtyard, so there shouldn't be only two people.
"They didn't want Jin'er to be their master, so they all left." Xia Jin said truthfully.
Lin Ziyi looked at the woman in front of him with complicated eyes, and he blamed him for not making arrangements well. The original servants here were all left by the previous owner, and the bond of sale was not here, so they would not be too loyal.
Since he promised to take her in, he would not ignore her and would naturally be responsible.
"Tomorrow you go to the town and buy a maid to serve her. If you take the deed, they won't run away again."
Xia Jin's eyes flickered, but she couldn't tell that this cold man was cold on the outside and hot on the inside. However, these are not the point!
Go buy a maid, come back, have no money to eat, and then have another miserable Avatar!
The most important thing now is money, money!
"Is the money enough?"
Finally got to the topic!
"Everything in the house has been taken away, there is no money, and there is no food. My mother Zhang and I live by eating fungi... I am thinking about going hunting outside tomorrow and making some food to sell on the street."
She did have this plan. After all, she was a chef in her previous life and relied on her craftsmanship to make her meals. There was nothing wrong with that!
Lin Ziyi's eyes were complicated. He was silent for a while and said softly: "Since I have taken you in, I will definitely not lack food for you. Take the money and send someone to give you some when you return to the general's mansion!"
Lin Ziyi handed her a money bag, and Xia Jin caught it with both hands. He let her hands sink heavily, put both hands together, and then held it tightly in his arms.
Lin Ziyi came out of the yard and left with the soldiers. After all, it is always not good for a woman to live here and be watched by so many men.
Xia Jin stood at the door and watched them leave. She noticed that there was a horse and a carriage in the yard, which were full of food.
It must have been specially left for her!
The benefactor is not bad, he gives you money and food and drinks, and he is handsome. Next time you see him, you must leave a good impression on him.
We can’t be in such embarrassment anymore!
…
Lin Ziyi and others left Liuju on horseback. There was a moon tonight, and they often trained at night, so it was not difficult for them to travel at night on horseback.
Mu Gu looked at Lin Ziyi cautiously. As soon as he came out, his master kept a dark face. He was obviously angry, even if he thought about it.
My own woman was bullied by the servants, robbed of food and drink, and reduced to eating wild fungi. Who can be in a good mood?
However, what surprised Mu Gu was that the master actually cared for a woman so much. This was definitely special treatment!!
Mu Gu has followed his master for ten years and has never seen his master look at a woman seriously.
Some people have given women to their masters as wives before, but each time they kept them for a period of time and then sent them away after finding a reason.
It has never been the same as today, not mentioning the money, leaving part of the military rations for her, and not mentioning sending it away.
Mu Gu felt that the master must be tempted, this is the rhythm of the iron tree blooming!
If the old lady knew, she would be extremely happy!
Little did he know that Lin Ziyi just felt guilty and forgot about the girl and tried to make up for it as much as possible!
Mu Gu has already begun to imagine that after returning home, the master will take Miss Xia back, and then she will become a full-time official, and then the General's Palace will be overjoyed, and they will have two girls in three years!
Now that the master has a family, he can't stay up all night anymore, so he won't train his troops all night long and torture these hard-working people!
Their Black Tiger Army has a great reputation, known as the Invincible Army, and also known as the Bachelor's Army.
Why a bachelor?
Because the general likes to train his troops all night! The training is so strict that the soldiers have no chance to find wives!
At this moment, not only Mu Gu, but other soldiers were also moved to tears!
They seemed to have seen spring, and the happy time when they could go home one night and hug their wives and children on the hot bed!
…
After three days, the skin stained blue due to eating blue pearl mushrooms returned to normal.
Xia Jin looked at herself in the mirror. She had a pair of clear and graceful blue eyes, as if she was born to attract people. She had a small nose, full red lips, black hair as smooth as silk, and her skin was as white as gel.
What a beauty!
Xia Jin scratched her head in embarrassment when she remembered her first meeting with her cheap financial backer two days ago.
In any case, I have the first pot of gold to make a fortune in ancient times!
There was a place called Wangxi Town three miles west of Liuju. With the carriage, Xia Jin decided to go there and see if he could rent a shop and open a restaurant.
Oh, by the way, we also need a maid. She and Zhang Ma are the only ones in this courtyard, which is too deserted. Xia Jin likes to be lively.
Arriving at Wangxi Town, Xia Jin wandered around. There were two crisscrossing streets. The streets were full of all kinds of exquisite gadgets. The shops included medical clinics, pawn shops, clothing stores, inns, taverns, and jewelry.
In the shop, there are many hawkers carrying burdens, all kinds of handmade grasshoppers, bamboo mats, and all kinds of exquisite things.
Today was market day, so there were a lot of people on the street. Xia Jin noticed that there was a group of people in front of them watching something, so she squeezed past.
Like to watch the excitement, regardless of dynasty, age, country, species, this seems to be a biological characteristic!
Xia Jin was no exception. As soon as she passed by, she saw a dirty girl who looked about 12 or 13 years old. She was kneeling on the ground and covered with sackcloth. She used charcoal to write crookedly on the ground: "Sell your body and bury your father."
Character.
A group of gangsters stepped forward to collect protection money, crushed the charcoal and pulled the girl's hair. The girl begged for mercy. During the struggle, her clothes were ripped open. People around her pointed and pointed, but no one came forward.
Xia Jin couldn't stand it anymore and squeezed out from the crowd.
