Chapter seven hundred and eighty first hero sad beauty pass
Chapter 781: The hero is sad about the beauty
Soon, Cheng Jiu followed Chai Yan back to the inn.
As soon as he entered the door of the inn, Chai Yan saw Yuan who was about to go upstairs.
"Madam, you've just come back!" Chai Yan came over immediately.
Yuanyuan nodded, his eyes fell on Cheng Jiu's face, and asked curiously: "Didn't you go...why did you come back with him! Miss Situ is looking for him...
..”
"Ah, we met on the way back..." Chai Yan walked to Yuan Yuan in a few steps and whispered a few words in her ear. Yuan Yuan asked and nodded, then turned and went upstairs.
Then, when Chai Yan saw that there was no one on the first floor, he pointed to the empty table in the corner and said, "Go and sit there..."
After finishing speaking, Chai Yan said to the waiter at the counter: "Make a pot of tea..."
Not long after Chai Yan and Cheng Jiugang sat down, the waiter brought hot tea.
Chai Yan dismissed the waiter, poured tea for Cheng Jiu himself, placed it in front of him and said, "Let's drink tea first..."
Cheng Jiu felt a little complicated. Looking at the steaming tea in front of him, he said hesitantly: "Master Chai, let's talk about this... I don't know where to start..."
Chai Yan poured himself a bowl of tea, blowing on the hot air and said, "Since that's the case, how about letting me take a guess first?"
Cheng Jiu thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
"Well..." Chai Yan thought for a while and suddenly said: "You are in a bad mood because of Situ Jing, right?"
Cheng Jiudeng immediately showed a surprised look.
Chai Yan smiled and said: "What are you doing with that expression? When I heard you say that the clerk was not allowed to report to the official, I guessed a little bit. Are you afraid that the embarrassing story of not having money to pay the bill will reach Situ Jing's ears?
That’s why you made such an extreme reaction, right?”
Cheng Jiu was very embarrassed, but still nodded in recognition.
Chai Yan asked again: "Then can you tell me, what happened between you and Situ Jing? Was there an awkward quarrel?"
Cheng Jiu shook his head and said: "No, she and I didn't have any quarrel or quarrel..."
"Then I don't understand, how come you were fine when you went back and suddenly ran out to drink?" Chai Yan looked at Cheng Jiu curiously, waiting for him to explain the reason.
"That's...that's because..." Cheng Jiu hesitated a few times and then said: "Because my elder brother said something to me, I ran out to drink alone...
....."
"Lao Ge?" Chai Yan became even more curious and asked, "What did he tell you? Was it about Situ Jing?"
Seeing that he had already said this, Cheng Jiu stopped hesitating and immediately revealed everything Ge Hong had said to him.
After finishing speaking, Cheng Jiu suddenly felt a little more relaxed, so he picked up the tea bowl and started drinking.
Chai Yan looked at Cheng Jiu with surprised eyes and asked, "Cheng Jiu, didn't he tell you what I told Lao Ge before?"
Cheng Jiu shook his head in confusion: "I don't know, what's going on?"
Chai Yan thought that Cheng Jiu had already come out at that time, so he didn't know about escorting the gold.
So, Chai Yan once again told the story of escorting the ore to Yaozhou in five days, and also explained the special reward he had promised after the task was completed!
Seeing Chai Yan looking at him meaningfully, Cheng Jiu immediately understood what he wanted to express.
But he was only happy for a moment, and Cheng Jiu's face was covered with sorrow again: "Master Chai, even if you can intercede on our behalf and let us no longer be wanted by the government, don't the past things cease to exist? Situ Zhixian and Situ
I'm afraid Jing will still treat me..."
"Wrong!" Chai Yan suddenly interrupted, wagging his finger and said: "If you think so, you are absolutely wrong!"
Cheng Jiuyi was stunned and looked at Chai Yan in astonishment.
Chai Yan looked serious and asked Cheng Jiu: "Let me ask you, how do you know how Situ and his daughter will view you?"
"Uh..." Cheng Jiu couldn't answer.
Chai Yan sighed softly and said patiently: "Cheng Jiu, the five of you are not evil-minded by nature. In the past, you were forced to do many things for the sake of 'survival'. When measured in this cruel world, in fact,
It’s not really a big crime at all…”
Cheng Jiu looked at Chai Yan blankly and asked, "Sir, I don't quite understand what you mean..."
Chai Yan said: "There is a saying that the prodigal son will never return for gold. Do you know what it means?"
Cheng Jiu shook his head: "I don't know."
Chai Yan explained: "It means...people who have done wrong or bad things, as long as they are willing to change their ways, are extremely valuable!"
Cheng Jiu nodded hurriedly.
Chai Yan said: "Cheng Jiu, you saved Miss Situ twice in a row, escorted her safely to her father, and stayed in the county government to help Master Situ... So, what you have done
Master Situ sees everything and keeps it in his heart! This is why Master Situ entrusts you with such an important task of escorting the gold without hesitation!"
Hearing this, Cheng Jiu felt a little excited.
Chai Yan took a sip of tea and continued: "If you can successfully complete this mission, it will not only prove your character once again, but also declare to their father and daughter that you are no longer the same people as before! That's it.
One day in the future, Situ and his daughter will know about your bad deeds in the past. I think with the character of Magistrate Situ and Miss Situ, they will never change their view of you easily!"
After listening to Chai Yan's words, Cheng Jiu fell into deep thought. Chai Yan did not disturb him, but just looked at the door calmly, drinking tea silently.
After a long time, Cheng Jiu suddenly raised his head, looked at Chai Yan and said, "Sir, I understand!"
"Oh?" Chai Yan put down the tea bowl gently and waited for him to continue.
Cheng Jiu said with firm eyes: "Sir, when I come back from the escort, I will confess everything to Situ Jing. No matter how she looks at me, I will accept it!"
Chai Yan thought for a moment and nodded in agreement: "Well, that's not bad! It's always better to tell her yourself than to find out from others. Well, I agree!"
Cheng Jiu seemed to gain motivation all of a sudden. He suddenly stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, sir!"
Chai Yan couldn't help but feel happy: "I'm really not used to you being so polite all of a sudden, haha..."
After saying that, Chai Yan waved his hand and said: "Okay, it's getting late. Go back quickly, lest they look for you everywhere..."
"I understand, sir!" Cheng Jiu saluted again, turned around and quickly left the inn, disappearing into the drizzling dark night.
After Cheng Jiu left, Chai Yan also returned to the room.
After pushing the door open and entering the house, Yuan came out to greet him and looked at Chai Yan with a puzzled expression.
Chai Yan walked inside, shaking his head and smiling: "Madam, that old saying is absolutely correct!"
"Ah? What ancient saying is correct?" Yuan asked puzzledly.
Chai Yan immediately said: "As the old saying goes, it is difficult for a hero to pass a beautiful woman's test! The ancients sincerely did not deceive me..."
"Huh?" Yuanyuan was stunned and immediately asked: "What's going on? You should explain it clearly!"
Suddenly, Chai Yan shook his head and said in a joking tone: "Madam, don't be impatient. I'll wait for my husband to tell you in detail..."
