Cheng Jiu was a little impatient while waiting outside, and would look inside the government office from time to time...
Finally, five or six people came out of the government office, including Chai Yan and Ge Hong, and the others were officials in official uniforms.
"Brother!" Cheng Jiu shouted excitedly and strode towards him.
"Fourth!" Ge Hong looked haggard, but he immediately became happy the moment he saw Cheng Jiu.
Chai Yan allowed the two of them to reunite excitedly, and turned to Zhang Peigu and several officials: "You guys should have official business to deal with, so just send them here. Please come back!"
After that, Chai Yan went down the steps, called Ge Hong and Cheng Jiu to leave.
Zhang Peigu stood at the door and watched the three people's retreating figures, and couldn't help but secretly let out a long sigh of relief.
At this time, an official behind him came forward and whispered: "Master Zhang, do you really believe that that person is his spy?"
Zhang Peigu frowned, turned around and asked unhappily: "So what if you believe it? So what if you don't believe it?"
The officials around him immediately lowered their heads and stopped talking.
Then, Zhang Peigu's eyes returned to the retreating figures of Chai Yan and the others, and he said slowly: "Isn't he just a fugitive? He is an insignificant person, so he can do whatever he wants. If he makes trouble because of this, what will it do to everyone?"
benefit?"
"Yes, yes... Your Majesty is absolutely right." The people around him nodded repeatedly.
Zhang Peigu thought to himself, if it were someone else today, regardless of whether he was from Wudesi or not, he would not necessarily sell this favor, but this person's name is Chai Yan, and he is a favorite in the eyes of the prince!
At this time, Chai Yan and the others had disappeared around the corner of the street, and Zhang Peigu turned around and walked back to the government office.
As soon as he crossed the threshold, Zhang Peigu stopped and said to the people around him: "By the way, send a message to everyone everywhere immediately to withdraw the wanted portraits of the two fugitives. There is no need to arrest them!"
"Yes, sir!" The officials around him responded in unison.
----------------------------------
At a street food shop, the waiter brought out a lot of food and filled almost half of the table.
Chai Yan said to Ge Hong: "Eat, replenish your strength first!"
"Thank you, sir!" Ge Hong was not a hypocritical person, so he thanked him and started eating.
When Chai Yan saw Cheng Jiu not moving, he said, "What are you doing standing still? You should eat too!"
"Oh." Cheng Jiu then picked up a hot meat bun and started to bite it.
Chai Yan took a sip of water, glanced at Ge Hong's injured arm, and asked, "Lao Ge, is your injury okay?"
Ge Hong paused, then immediately shook his head and said: "It doesn't matter, thank you for your concern, sir!"
When Chai Yan saw that the bandage on the wound was already black and dirty, he knew that it had not been changed for several days, so he said: "Eat first, and after eating, I will take you to treat the wound, otherwise the wound infection will be bad!"
"Infection?" Ge Hong didn't understand the meaning of this word.
"Sir, what is infection?" Cheng Jiu didn't understand either.
"Uh..." Chai Yan thought for a while and explained in words they could understand: "This infection... means suppuration. You haven't cleaned it up in prison for several days.
The wound is dark and moist there, what if the wound suppurates?"
Only then did the two of them understand the meaning of infection.
Then, Ge Hong and Cheng Jiu ate much faster.
To say that these two people are really good at eating, they finished a lot of food in front of them, and finally ordered four more meat buns before they were full.
After Chai Yan paid the bill, he led the two of them to Rende Pharmacy.
Because it was closer to Rende Pharmacy, Chai Yan naturally chose to bring two people to Semicolon to clean the wound and change the dressing.
As soon as they arrived near the branch of Rende Pharmacy, Cheng Jiu spoke: "Sir, why did you bring us here?"
"What's wrong? The owner of the Rende Drug Store in front of me knows me. Where are we going if we don't come here?" Chai Yan asked in confusion.
Ge Hong then said: "You don't know, sir, but Lao Si and I were here a few days ago. When we were buying medicine at Rende Pharmacy, I was recognized by someone from the Yamen."
"Oh, that's it! Don't worry, this kind of thing won't happen again. Zhang Peigu will have your portraits torn off soon!" Chai Yan said with a smile.
While talking, Chai Yan took Ge Hong and Cheng Jiu into Rende Pharmacy.
After Chai Yan glanced around, he saw Yang Chengyi inside the counter at a glance, so he walked over and said with a smile: "Master Yang, are you busy?"
"Master Chai!"
When Yang Chengyi saw that Chai Yan was here, he quickly walked out of the counter, and the two chatted happily.
After chatting, Chai Yan explained the purpose of his visit, and Yang Chengyi immediately went to find a doctor sitting in the hall and took Ge Hong and Cheng Jiu aside to treat their wounds.
While waiting, Chai Yan asked about Yang Chengyi's current situation.
Yang Chengyi told Chai Yan that he has been very good recently and his boss treats him very well. Now he is the deputy of the shopkeeper.
"Not bad, not bad!" Chai Yan was also happy for Yang Chengyi's current situation.
Then, Chai Yan asked about Chen Xiang again and asked Yang Chengyi and Chen Xiang if there was any development.
Yang Chengyi lowered his head involuntarily and said slightly frustrated: "Chen Xiang and I are getting along quite well, but her father...her father doesn't like me very much..."
Upon further inquiry, I found out that Chen Xiang's adoptive father had visited Yaozhou City a few days ago and also met Yang Chengyi. When he learned that his daughter's intimacy with Yang Chengyi was gradually increasing, his father got angry at that time.
Chai Yan thought to himself that it's no wonder. With your behavior in front of Chen Xiang's father, it's no wonder that he treats you well.
However, Chai Yan still comforted Yang Chengyi with kind words: "Don't be impatient. Don't you know his father's temperament? You and Chen Xiang have to take things slowly. The best way is to use practical actions to make her father change his view of you."
!”
"Sir, I...I don't quite understand...How about you teach me?" Yang Chengyi requested.
Chai Yan thought for a while and said: "In this way, you first set a small goal for yourself..."
"Small goal?" Yang Chengyi looked confused and didn't quite understand what Chai Yan meant.
"Yes!" Chai Yan nodded and said very seriously: "For example, if you work hard for a promotion and a salary increase, and become the shopkeeper of Semicolon in the future, Chen Xiang's father will definitely be impressed by you!"
"Ah, shopkeeper... shopkeeper?" Yang Chengyi was so shocked that the tip of his chin almost hit his chest: "This, this, this...is this called a small...small target?"
Chai Yan looked serious and said seriously: "There is an old saying, a tailor who doesn't want to be a general is not a good cook. You haven't even tried hard, so how do you know you are not good at it?"
"Sir, you...what are you talking about? The more I listen, the more confused I become..."
Yang Chengyi was stunned when he heard this, scratching the back of his head repeatedly and thinking: How can there be such an old saying? General, tailor, and cook, these three have nothing to do with each other!
