"Sister Chen!"
"We're one short for Dou Dizhu (a card game)!"
Upon hearing the call, Shen Jiao immediately sprang to her feet, lifted the carriage curtain, and slipped out.
The little miracle doctor is truly a wonderful person.
He always manages to save her from danger at the exact time and in different places.
I must send him three braised pig heads later to express my gratitude.
Watching the hamster with its bristling fur leave without looking back, and then go to another carriage to chat without any hesitation, Ji Yan's face darkened.
That damned Shen Jiao!
If you're going to be a human hamster, you should do what a human hamster is supposed to do, stick to your principles, and stay true to them.
How can you be so fickle and indecisive?!
How can you be eyeing what's in your bowl while eating what's in the pot?
Ji Yan was extremely annoyed.
That damned Liang Heng!
I spared his life back then, and now he dares to be so arrogant as to dig up my frizzy hamster!
Ji Yan tapped the carriage wall twice with a gloomy face, and then a dark figure appeared and knelt outside the carriage.
"Your Majesty," the Dragon Shadow Guard said respectfully.
...
Shen Jiao arrived at Liang Heng's carriage and found that Gu An was already there, but his expression was not good.
"What's wrong, Second Brother? Are you in a bad mood? Why do you look like you've borrowed three hundred catties of grain and only returned twenty catties of chaff?"
After becoming godparents, Shen Jiao changed how she addressed Master Gu and Madam Gu. Gu An was a year older than her and should be considered her elder brother.
Gu An was extremely displeased, but the sweet and crisp voice of "Second Brother" instantly made him feel happy.
"It's all Shen Fengqing's fault."
Shen Jiao had gotten used to Gu An always forgetting people's names.
Even though he had met Shen Qingye several times, he would still call her Shen Qingye from time to time, and it only got better later.
She asked, "What happened?"
Gu An crossed his arms and hummed.
He looked like he wanted to complain but thought it was making a mountain out of a molehill.
While skillfully shuffling the cards, Liang Heng explained, "Shen Qingfeng learned from Master Gu that you had become a godparent to the Gu family, and he reacted quite strongly. He immediately started arguing with Gu An. Gu An said he was incompetent and that his older brother needed his younger sister to save him. How could Shen Qingfeng tolerate that? Gu An immediately said that she shouldn't have saved him that night."
Suddenly, an image of two chicks flapping their wings and pecking at each other popped into Shen Jiao's mind.
She felt that her current role was similar to that of an elementary school homeroom teacher, dealing with the students' antics.
"Then what?"
"Then, as you know, Shen Qingfeng has been a foul-mouthed person for quite some time now. Gu An couldn't hold back and kicked him to the side of the road to eat grass. Master Gu and Young Master Shen were both in a real bind, so they sent Gu An to my place to calm down," Liang Heng said.
Gu An couldn't help but interject: "I didn't hit him on purpose! He said you have a bad reputation, that you're no good at anything, and that taking you as his goddaughter was just a whim and doesn't count. I'll go to hell with that spiral-legged stinky toad. He also said that you'll be back at the Four Flowers Banquet this time, and you'll definitely embarrass yourself again."
"I find his appearance utterly disgraceful!" Young Master Gu exclaimed indignantly!
Shen Jiao: "You've seen what he looks like?"
Gu An: "No, the slander is all based on imagination."
Shen Jiao: "..."
She knew that Gu Xiaoyou liked to exaggerate when she complained, but she also learned more or less about the truth of the matter from her complaints.
In summary, under the guise of starting with her, a fierce battle was sparked between two incompetent individuals who already disliked each other.
Shouldn't she be charged an appearance fee?
Seeing Gu An's somewhat disheveled clothes, yet still pretending to be strong and proud by raising her chin, one can only imagine that Shen Qingfeng, the patient, must be in an even worse state.
Shen Jiao seized on another key point: "But what is the Four Flowers Banquet?"
Gu An was probably reviewing the fight, feeling that he hadn't performed well in the fight with Liang Heng, and he was somewhat sullen.
"It's just that each of the six kingdoms sends some people to play music and sing. It's something that literati and scholars love to do. It has little to do with us warriors. Anyway, I went once and it wasn't fun at all."
Shen Jiao: "Is it not fun because you didn't win again?"
Just like a martial arts tournament.
Gu An put his hands on his hips and retorted with rationality and authority: "How could that be? I won! It's just that the referee gave me a hard time."
Liang Heng asked, "What do you mean? These judges of the Four Flowers Society are leaders from all walks of life; this situation shouldn't have happened."
Gu An's long-dormant memories suddenly awakened, and he turned his head: "When we were competing in music theory, I used the erhu."
"Second Brother can also play the erhu." Shen Jiao was surprised.
Liang Heng asked suspiciously, "You really didn't saw off the table leg?"
Gu An patted his chest with immense pride: "Of course! I'm skilled in both literature and martial arts. Back in the day, I knocked my opponent unconscious with just one erhu. How glorious and straightforward my victory was! But the referee not only refused to recognize my score, but also extorted money from me for medical expenses. People can be so wicked! Little sister, you must be careful."
Shen Jiao: "..." Be careful of whom? Be careful of yourself?
Liang Heng: "..."
Suddenly, a shadow fell over the carriage, and the light dimmed. Shen Jiao noticed something and turned her head to look.
Sure enough, the tyrant, who should have been paralyzed like a fish, appeared before them.
Liang Heng's carriage was not spacious; three people could barely squeeze in. Ji Yan stood quietly at the door, her expression gloomy.
It's a mystery how he managed to stand so steadily while the carriage kept moving.
"Is it because he's a tyrant that his shoes have more slip-resistant soles?" Shen Jiao wondered to herself.
The coachman trembled and huddled in a ball, afraid that the tyrant would have a leg cramp and kick him away.
Fortunately, Ji Yan simply tossed a sack to Liang Heng and, without looking to the side, pulled Shen Jiao back to her own carriage.
There wasn't a single unnecessary movement, not even an unnecessary glance.
The purpose is obvious.
Gu An and Liang Heng looked at each other, listening to the conversation fading into the distance.
"Your Majesty, could you please take me back later? I'm going to beat them all in this round of Landlord, I'm not done yet."
