"This place is not like before. You have to pay for food and clothing yourself. The thousand taels of silver I freed up are for my uncle to use. Although it is not much, it is good for my uncle to live with it.
"
Pei Wen smiled slightly.
The two of them said some cherished words and then parted ways. Pei Wen is no longer the Pei Wen she used to be. She is now the wealthy Miss Wu. Her mission in this life is to protect her family business and live happily at the knees of her grandparents.
But for Shi Yingxue, her journey does not end here.
She still wants to go back to the Cultivation Continent and continue walking on this treacherous road of Qingyun Immortal.
After it got late, Pei Wen ordered someone to take Shi Yingxue and Martin to the inn where they were resting.
Shi Yingxue and Martin, who had taken off his disguise, looked at each other in confusion. After a while, Martin asked: "Brother Xue, what did you say to the lady in the room? I always feel that the lady has a good impression of you, so he called for help and gave me
It’s your money and mine.”
Shi Yingxue smiled vaguely: "We are just half old friends. In fact, apart from the money, I think the Longmen Note is more useful."
Martin didn't know about the Longmen note. When Shi Yingxue and Pei Wen were talking, he had already been led to a side hall to drink tea.
Shi Yingxue told Martin a little bit about the Longmen Note, and Martin looked at Shi Yingxue with suspicion: "Brother Xue, why do I doubt that you and her are more than just half-old friends? Why is she so nice to you?"
?You know that for a person like Mr. Kang, one wish can be as valuable as gold and silver."
Shi Yingxue was in a good mood, and Martin had always been happy getting along with her. She couldn't help but joke, "Then what do you think of my relationship with her?"
Martin jumped up all of a sudden, as if a cat had exploded: "No way, I really guessed it?!"
Shi Yingxue:???
"Brother Xue, no matter how poor we are, we won't betray our looks! The expressions I saw on that little girl and the old lady just now, I could eat you up!"
Martin was so frightened that he walked up and down the room.
"It's okay if you are a man. It's not a big deal to marry a mortal from a wealthy family. But you are still a girl. How can you do this?"
The more he thought about it, the more serious he became. He actually took out the bag of silver and walked around Shi Yingxue, asking Shi Yingxue to take out the so-called Longmen Note. He wanted to return all these things to the Wu family.
.
Shi Yingxue wanted to laugh, but also found it interesting.
Speaking of which, she doesn't like to have too much contact with the opposite sex. Sha Ling was the type of man she disliked the most;
But getting along with Martin is much better. Martin has a rather silly character. Although he is a bit lazy, he also likes to be clever. He is naive, but he is cute.
He was full of vitality, and he never had other thoughts about Shi Yingxue. He would not push for an inch or make any extraordinary moves. He had an innocent heart beating in his chest.
He doesn't look like a monster, but like a human being.
This kind of knowledge made Shi Yingxue feel very strange.
And she discovered a strange thing, that although Martin was obviously a demon, the demonic aura in him was very weak. Unless Shi Yingxue consciously sensed it, it would usually not be noticeable.
She had a vague idea in her mind, but she didn't have much interest in other people's privacy and secrets, so she just kept it in her heart.
When she came back to her senses, Yingxue smiled and said: "It's okay, the lady has already recognized that I am a woman. She just wants to help me. I can't tell you the reason, but it's definitely not something else."
Pictured."
Martin glanced at Shi Yingxue, let out a stunned sigh, and put everything down again.
"Brother Xue is a girl. Let's sleep on the bed tonight. I think this glass of boiled water is good. I'll sleep here tonight."
Martin took a teacup and filled it with water. Before Shi Yingxue could react, he transformed into his prototype and jumped directly into the water.
Shi Yingxue also felt tired, so she pulled down the screen and washed briefly, then slept with her clothes on.
The little girl who came to pick them up the next day said that Pei Wen had left and that she would take Shi Yingxue to find Mr. Kang from now on.
At first, Martin said that he wanted to say goodbye to Shi Yingxue, but then he changed his mind and said that he wanted to take the opportunity to defect to Mr. Kang to see if he could find a future. Shi Yingxue also felt that it didn't matter, so he let him
He followed along.
Mr. Kang does not live in this city called "Wang Strait". His manor is on "Yuping Mountain" about fifty miles northwest of Wang Strait.
Yuping Mountain is not a mountain, but the name of a coastal city. There is a naturally formed jade in the city, and there are several mountains close behind it, so the city is named Yuping Mountain.
The little girl led the driver to hitch a carriage over, and took Shi Yingxue and Martin along the official road to Yuping Mountain.
Needless to say, there was no need to describe the scenery along the way, but Martin saw something novel. He kept lying at the window and watching the rapidly receding grass on both sides of the road.
Probably because the dragon gate paper was very effective, as soon as the news from the Wu family was sent out, the Kang family sent people to guard the city gate, ready to pick up people.
Although Mr. Kang knew that the Dragon Gate Paper had been given to a friend by his old friend's young daughter, he still valued the importance of this Dragon Gate Paper.
Of course, rather than valuing the weight of the Longmen Note, it is better to value the weight of your own commitment.
At this time, Mr. Kang had been out to sea for more than a month and was still at sea. He received a letter from Hai Dongqing saying that someone was visiting with Longmen paper, so he immediately sent a letter back and asked the other servants of the Kang family to treat the visitor with respect.
Such a person has reached where he is today precisely because he values love and justice, and he must do what he says. Otherwise, he would not be respected as Mr. Kang by everyone.
Zeng Zhen, the steward of the Kang family, personally brought people to welcome Shi Yingxue into the city, which showed his respect.
On the way there, Shi Yingxue heard from the little girl that Mr. Kang was getting older. As a result, Martin took out a portrait of Mr. Kang from nowhere and said that he had recently purchased it from a painter. Shi Ying
Xue's jaw almost dropped when she saw it.
This portrait is indeed very new, and the paints are all new.
But Mr. Kang in the painting definitely looks no older than thirty, with a slender face. Even through a painting, you can see that his eyes are shining. He is a shrewd man at first glance.
The little girl from the Wu family said that Mr. Kang has been crawling on the beach since he was a teenager. He started going to sea at the age of fourteen, once every five years, and this is the fifth time he has gone to sea.
Calculating this, he is indeed nearly forty years old. The little girl said that she has never seen what Mr. Kang looks like and cannot confirm what he is like.
The Kang family's housekeeper Zeng Zhen came to pick up Shi Yingxue and Martin, and his attitude was very respectful.
