Chai Yan smiled, changed the subject and asked: "By the way, where is Hong Biao, I have to tell him something..."
With that said, Chai Yan stood up.
Hang Baiqiu said hurriedly: "Just sit down! Hong Biao has left. Someone came from Rouxiang Court just now and asked him to leave. They will get along well."
Chai Yan paused after hearing this, then slowly sat down and whispered: "Okay, it saves me having to say this!"
"What's wrong? What are you talking about?" Hang Baiqiu heard that there was something else in the words.
Chai Yan then told Hang Baiqiu about Diewu's refusal to redeem his life. Hang Baiqiu was surprised, shook his head and said: "What did she think? She doesn't want to live an innocent life, she has to stay in that kind of place!"
"
Chai Yan said calmly: "I don't know, I have my own opinions. Anyway, I did what I had to do, and I feel no regrets!"
.............
At dinner time, Hong Biao had not come back yet. Seeing that it was getting late, Chai Yan ordered dinner to be served without waiting for him.
During the meal, Chai Yan announced to everyone that he would move to a house early tomorrow morning. The place was a house arranged by Meng Ruhu.
Cheng Jiu and the others were curiously inquiring about what kind of house it was, when Hong Biao came back with a frustrated and lost expression on his face.
Chai Yan knew what happened at a glance, and without asking any more questions, he stopped Hong Biao and asked him to eat.
Hong Biao looked like a wilted eggplant, shaking his head and saying: "I have no appetite..."
After saying that, Hong Biao went upstairs listlessly.
Cheng Jiu and the other three were stunned. They waited until Hong Biao went upstairs and entered the house before turning back to Chai Yan to ask what was going on.
Chai Yan didn't want to talk now, so he shook his head and continued to eat.
It was Hang Baiqiu who spoke: "He, my sweetheart doesn't want to be with him anymore!"
Chai Yan gently touched Hang Baiqiu and signaled her not to talk about it now. Letting Hong Biao hear it would just rub salt into the wound.
Cheng Jiu and the others looked at each other and did not continue to ask questions, but the atmosphere at the table changed a bit.
After a while, Hong Biao came downstairs with his luggage. It seemed that he had just gone back to the house to pack his things.
"Are you leaving?" Chai Yan asked, putting down his bowl and chopsticks.
"Yes!" Hong Biao was in a very low mood and said sadly, "I want to go home."
Chai Yan said: "It's getting dark now. If you want to leave, you should leave tomorrow!"
Hong Biao said disheartenedly: "It doesn't matter. I can't sleep anyway. I'll walk all night and get home after dawn."
With that said, Hong Biao was about to walk out the door.
Chai Yan shouted again: "Hong Biao, have a meal before leaving. You can't walk at night hungry!"
Hong Biao looked depressed and thanked: "Thank you for your kindness, sir, but I really can't eat it."
"Don't leave yet, wait for me!" Chai Yan stopped Hong Biao and then walked to the kitchen.
After a while, Chai Yan brought out a bag and handed it to Hong Biao: "I brought you some steamed buns to eat on the road."
"Thank you, sir." Hong Biao did not refuse.
Chai Yan said softly: "Hong Biao, I told Xiaowei Liu from Nanying carefully about the remuneration I promised you before leaving. After the court sends someone over, just go to him and he will definitely help you solve it."
Yes, you just have to be at ease!"
Hong Biao looked unconcerned, nodded and said, "I understand, Mr. Chai, then I'm leaving."
After saying that, Hong Biao looked at everyone again, turned around and left the Gaopeng Inn.
It wasn't until Hong Biao's back was invisible that Chai Yan returned to the table and sat down, picked up the bowl and chopsticks again, picked up the vegetables and started eating.
"Sir, what's going on?" Guan Maochun was the most curious, blinking and asking.
Chai Yan didn't want to talk anymore, so he glanced at Hang Baiqiu and said, "Tell me..."
Hang Baiqiu only knew a rough idea, but she still told the whole story vividly, her tone and words were biased toward Hong Biao, and she didn't understand Die Wu's decision to refuse.
Regarding the matter between Hong Biao and Die Wu, the people at the table discussed it back and forth without saying anything right or wrong. This little talk made the atmosphere at the dinner table much more lively.
--------------------------
The next morning, it was just after Chen hour.
As soon as Chai Yan got up and went downstairs, he saw Meng Ruhu. He was sitting in the inn lobby, talking to the innkeeper with a humble face.
Chai Yan said as he went downstairs: "Meng Lichang, it's too early for you!"
When Meng Ruhu heard the sound, he interrupted the conversation, stood up and hurriedly walked to the stairs, saluted Chai Yan downstairs and said, "Good morning, sir!"
The innkeeper also came over to say hello, and then turned away, leaving the space for the two of them.
Meng Ruhu invited Chai Yan to sit down in the hall and said, "Sir, the house has been packed and prepared. You can move there at any time."
"Chang Meng, are you afraid that I might change my mind after a nap, so you came here early in the morning?" Chai Yan asked with a smile.
"No, no, no, I just don't know what your master has planned for today, so I came here early in the morning so that I can obey your orders." Meng Ruhu denied.
Chai Yan then said: "In this case, let's go there after everyone gets up and after breakfast."
Meng Ruhu hurriedly asked: "What would you like to have for breakfast? I will let the people below prepare it..."
"You can eat whatever you want...as long as it tastes good!" Chai Yan said nonchalantly.
Meng Ruhu immediately responded: "Sir, wait a moment, I will make arrangements now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Meng Ruhu turned around and left the inn.
............
After lighting the incense, a table in the lobby of the inn was filled with all kinds of breakfast foods, including dry ones, fried ones, steamed ones, and boiled ones.
Chai Yan and the other five sat at the table and looked at it for a long time, not knowing which part to start with.
In the end, Chai Yan took the lead, grabbing a meat bun from among the many delicacies and gnawing on it.
Immediately, Cheng Jiu and Hang Baiqiu also started to enjoy the sumptuous breakfast.
After breakfast, Chai Yan and his party packed up their things and left the inn, driving the carriage to the house provided by Meng Ruhu.
When they arrived at the house, Meng Ruhu immediately turned into a guide, taking everyone around and giving a very enthusiastic introduction.
Chai Yan found that it was different from when he arrived yesterday. There were some more servants in the house. After asking, he found out that they were all sent here by Meng Ruhu after summoning him overnight. There were young maids responsible for daily living and men doing odd jobs.
There are servants and an old woman who is responsible for cooking.
Chai Yan saw that everything was very thoughtful and meticulous, so he asked Meng Ruhu: "Meng Lichang, you should know very well that my family is in the capital, and I will definitely not stay here for a long time. I will leave in a while. You are like this
What are you trying to do by entertaining me regardless of the cost?"
Meng Ruhu suddenly looked horrified, shook his hands hurriedly, and said nervously: "Sir, how dare you have other thoughts! This is all just gratitude, purely gratitude, sir!"
