After Xianjin finished eating, Chen Jianfang leaned on his knees with his hands and asked, "Did you walk all night yesterday?"
Xianjin nodded, "We'll take the official road, and Brother Ergou will lead the way. Ordinary people won't dare to cause trouble."
Perhaps because of the good food, Tuesday Dog has grown bigger and bigger over the past year.
I feel like I can even pick up Li Sanshun with one hand.
It makes people feel safe.
In addition, the official road they were taking was still within the jurisdiction of Xuancheng Prefecture, so there were no bandits from the Baochan Temple. That was why Xianjin dared to travel overnight...
Seeing that the little girl didn't take it seriously, Chen Jianfang couldn't help but feel depressed. He thought of the cold tea and the resolute way the little girl raised her head to drink it...
"If you need anything, you can tell me in advance and I will go with you."
Chen Jianfang said this with fear, not knowing if the girl would lose her temper again after he finished speaking. After thinking for a while, he said to Hui, "Anyway, the mountain courtyard is now in disarray. I'm going on a long journey to relax."
Chen Jianfang held the edge of the bowl of soy milk in his hand. After a while, he heard the little girl's words with a smile, "Okay, I'll call you next time!"
With a "click", Chen Jianfang felt as if a stone had fallen from his heart.
He lowered his eyebrows to hide the relaxation in his eyes, then glanced sideways to see Xianjin drinking soy milk and eating fried dough sticks in high spirits.
Chen Jianfang let out a long sigh in his heart.
Perhaps, he could have argued with Xianjin over the herbal tea that day without confronting him directly?
What’s past is past.
Maybe the little girl wasn’t very happy that day;
Maybe the little girl just wanted to drink that bowl of herbal tea;
Maybe there are other less important reasons...
Now that we tear it apart again, it feels a bit sad that time has passed.
Chen Jianfang changed the subject as he wished, "Have you seen Magistrate Xiong?"
Xianjin was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Yes, I have seen him. He looks like a senior who has been in the officialdom for a long time and knows the ways of the world but is not worldly..."
Chen Jianfang heard the obvious relief in Xianjin's tone, and couldn't help but feel happy that their relationship had returned to normal.
In his joy, he didn't realize that he seemed to have missed the fleeting sigh in Xianjin's eyes.
