Along the way, in order to ensure the safety of the goods, everyone did not dare to eat anything when they stayed overnight.
At most, I would cook some porridge and eat it with the dry food and pickles I brought with me.
Now that I'm back at my own business, I can finally eat something hot and delicious.
Ye Changxue ate two trays of steamed buns, drank a bowl of tofu pudding and a bowl of millet porridge in one breath, and only then did he feel relaxed all over.
He raised his hand and beckoned a waiter over, saying, "We're taking a day off here today. I think everyone wants to go take a bath and relax. You guys can make all the arrangements. I'll put it on my account. Make sure everyone is taken care of by me. Do you understand?"
"Yes, yes, don't worry, Second Master. I understand." The waiter said this but did not leave. He looked at Ye Changxue with a look of wanting to say something but stopping himself.
Ye Changxue was about to go out when he saw this and asked impatiently, "If you have something to say, say it quickly. If you have to fart, fart quickly!"
"Second Master, bring back that girl..."
The guy was interrupted by Ye Changxue before he could finish his words.
"Stop, stop, stop! What do you mean by bringing that girl back? Are you trying to ruin my reputation?"
"No, that's right, Second Master. That girl has a high fever. Do you want to go over and take a look?"
"If she has a high fever, ask a doctor to treat her and prescribe medicine, and the expenses will be paid by me.
"What's the point of asking me to come over? I can't treat illnesses."
After saying this, Ye Changxue turned around and walked out, planning to take a stroll around the town.
There is a market in this town. People from many surrounding villages and towns come here to sell things, and you can find some rare things from time to time.
Every year when Ye Changxue passes by here, he would go over to take a look and see if there was anything suitable to buy home as a gift for Qingtian.
Sure enough, this market did not disappoint him, and he actually found a piece of raw crystal.
Clusters of purple crystals sparkled in the sunlight, so beautiful.
Ye Changxue thought Qingtian would definitely like it, so he bought it without even bargaining.
He returned to the store with the raw crystal, wrapped it up and put it in his saddlebag, then went downstairs to prepare for lunch.
There are a lot more people eating in the store now than in the morning.
Some people went out to have fun last night and just woke up now.
Although Ye Changxue never does these things himself, he doesn't forbid others from going out.
The only requirement is not to miss any task.
The Ye family caravan is not only large and safe, but also pays more wages and dividends than other families.
Everyone was reluctant to give up this job, so they all abided by the rules set by Ye Changxue.
After eating and drinking, everyone sat in the hall and chatted, and they talked about the girl who was rescued last night.
"I heard he was badly burned. It's really pitiful."
"After all, she's a foreigner. Who knows her identity or what she's after? We should be more careful!"
"That's true. As the saying goes, those who are not of our kind must have different hearts. When we go out, it's better to be safe than sorry."
Ye Changxue rarely spoke, and listened silently to what others were talking about.
After everyone had finished talking, he said, "When we are out and about, saving people is considered a good deed. If we do more good deeds, the Buddha will surely bless us and everything will go well.
"As for this little Jurchen girl, we can just send her away once she recovers. There's no need to delve into her identity or what she's up to."
After Ye Changxue said this, no one said anything and the lobby was filled with silence.
He looked up in confusion and found that the little Jurchen girl was standing by the railing on the second floor looking at him.
Perhaps because of the fever, her face was flushed and her eyes looked especially watery.
After a long silence in the hall, someone finally realized that the little girl could not understand the official language of Da Qi.
"Yes, that's right, Master Er, what you said makes sense."
"That's right. The reason why I have been following the Ye family all these years, from the eldest master Ye to the second master Ye, is because the Ye family is kind-hearted and has always been protected by the Bodhisattva. They can always turn danger into safety at critical moments."
"That's right. Countless people have come here to pan for gold or trade in local products over the years. But if we talk about who does the best, if the Ye family is second, no one would dare to claim to be first."
"Okay, no need to flatter me. I've already told the guys that whether you want to take a bath or do anything else today, it will all be charged to my account."
"Thank you, Second Master!"
"It has to be the Second Master!"
"Second Master is so generous!"
Upon hearing this, everyone happily thanked Ye Changxue.
"But let me be frank. You can do whatever you want, but..."
"No one is allowed to delay the business!" the others said in unison.
"Okay, that's good. Just do what you need to do!" Ye Changxue said and got up and went upstairs.
The Jurchen girl who was standing by the railing just now has disappeared.
Ye Changxue didn't take it seriously. He turned around and yelled at the people who were heading out in groups of three or four, "Come back home early tonight and get up early tomorrow to travel!"
Ye Changxue returned to his room and fell asleep again. When he opened his eyes again, it was pitch black outside the window.
He found a tinder and lit the oil lamp on the bedside, then took out his pocket watch to check the time. It was almost dawn.
Ye Changxue had a good sleep and jumped up, ready to go to the toilet. Then he could ask everyone to get up, have breakfast and set off.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened the door, he saw a black thing outside falling towards him.
Ye Changxue subconsciously kicked it, and then heard a cry of pain.
"ah--"
This shout saved Ye Changxue from calling for help. Everyone was woken up and came out holding lights to check the situation.
When they found Ye Changxue wearing only a coat and a middle-length shirt standing at the door, and a Jurchen girl lying on the ground outside the door, crying pitifully with her arms folded over her chest, everyone's expressions became subtle.
Ye Changxue suppressed her anger and explained, "I just woke up, and when I opened the door she fell in, giving me a fright...
"Come here, find someone who can speak the Jurchen language and ask her what she wants to do!
"Stop doing this crap every day, I've had enough!"
"Second Master, please calm down. I'll go find him right away." Seeing that Ye Changxue was really angry, the waiter didn't dare to delay for a moment. He didn't care that it was still dark outside. He went back to the house, put on his clothes and prepared to go out to look for him.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the Jurchen girl actually spoke.
"Don't look for it. I, I can understand and speak Mandarin."
Although her pronunciation was a little inaccurate, everyone could understand what she said.
Everyone showed a surprised expression.
The girl looked up at Ye Changxue with tears on her face.
Ye Changxue was not moved at all and said with a cold face: "It's better if you can understand.
"Come here, I suspect this is a Jurchen spy, take her to the authorities immediately!"
