Chapter 259 I finally dreamed of the manta ray
In the past few days, many people in the capital have noticed that the Flying Tiger Escort Agency seems to have suddenly become quiet.
The door of the escort agency is open every day, but no one comes out.
Moreover, even the chief escort's daughter Du Qian, who loved to wander around, was nowhere to be seen.
It was said that something went wrong with a very important dart they were escorting.
Chief escort Du Wu brought a lot of people to solve the problem, but after several days, there was still no result.
Then some discerning people realized that the Flying Tiger Escort Agency had offended someone and was tripped up by someone.
But as to who the Flying Tiger Escort Agency offended, no one knows.
And at this moment in the front hall of Feihu Escort Agency.
Du Wu's wife, Zhou, was sitting on a chair with a swollen and bruised face, while the usually arrogant Du Qian was kneeling on the ground with a sad face.
"I just spoil you too much!"
Zhou said coldly, "The escort your father and his men are escorting this time is for a big client in the capital. If anything happens because of your nonsense, I will not forgive you!"
"Mom, I didn't do anything."
"It was just that day when I competed with the distant cousin of the young master of the Rong family in pitching pots and whipping." Du Qian looked aggrieved.
Seeing her like this, Zhou was so angry that her chest heaved up and down: "I didn't do anything, what else do you want to do?!"
"I don't know if that little girl named Yun Ran is a distant relative of the Rong family. But do you know who that silly old lady is? How dare you mess with her?"
"Who... is it?" Du Qian was confused. Wasn't that old lady the grandmother of the little girl named Yun Ran?
"She is the old lady of the Rong family, the first wife of Rong Bing, the head of the Medicine Immortal Pavilion!"
"You're just going to call her a fool in public? Du Qian, you're really brave!"
Bang!
Zhou was so angry that she slapped the table next to her, causing the teacup on the table to roll twice, fall to the ground and break.
Du Qian was frightened and cold sweat broke out on her back.
She really didn't know. If she knew, she wouldn't dare to do it even if she had the courage.
She could handle teaching Yun Ran that girl a lesson, or even the weak young master of the Rong family, knowing how to do it in moderation without any fear.
After all, this is just a joke between children, and no one can say anything.
But when it comes to Madam Rong, the problem becomes serious.
The Rong family has been standing in the capital for decades, and their roots are deep and stable. They are not someone that rising stars like them can mess with.
Zhou was so angry when she saw her kneeling on the ground with her head drooped.
First, something went wrong with the escort led by her husband Du Wu, and then the escort vehicle led by her eldest son was intercepted halfway.
She was so anxious that she wanted to go out and find someone to help, but as soon as she stepped out of the gate of Feihu Escort Agency, she was beaten up by an unknown man in black!
But she still can't win!
And it's not just her. Anyone from the Flying Tiger Escort Agency will be beaten as soon as they step out of this door!
Zhou was so angry that she rolled her eyes. Wasn't this just the same thing her unlucky daughter had done before?
At the beginning, Du Qian led people to block the apprentices of Shun'an Martial Arts School, which was run by the second branch of the Rong family, and beat them up on the way.
Now, they beat me back!
Moreover, they were blocking the very door of their Feihu Escort Agency. Where could they save their face?
"You're a good-for-nothing!"
Zhou stood up, walked over to Du Qian, and poked her head fiercely: "Kneel down here and reflect on your actions! Sooner or later, your father and I will be killed by you!"
After saying this, he stood up and left, and ordered his servants to lock the door.
Du Qian knelt on the ground with her back straight, her eyes red and her fists clenched tightly.
She had no regrets in her heart, but she did feel hatred.
…
In the east wing of Rong's Baicaoxuan, Baoya woke up, rubbing her sleepy eyes.
Last night she read the Classic of Mountains and Seas for a long time, but she still didn't dream of the manta ray, not even a single dream.
Honghong heard her get up and quickly got some hot water for her to wash.
After finishing cleaning, Bao Ya went to the main hall to pay her respects to Rong Bing and Old Madam Rong. Rong He was also there.
Time passed quickly, and she had been at Rong's house for several days. In two days, she would return to Feishui Village, Ping'an Town.
And today, she made an appointment with Rong He to go shopping together.
Since she finally came to the capital, she must buy some gifts for everyone in her family to take back.
Baoya and Rong He greeted Rong Bing and Old Madam Rong, and then they went out to the street together in a carriage.
Old Madam Rong also wanted to go, but with Du Qian's incident, Rong Bing was not at ease. Bao Ya persuaded her for a long time before convincing her.
As a result, when the two of them got on the carriage and lifted the curtain, they found that there was already someone sitting in the carriage.
His hair was tied high, he was wearing a brocade robe of sky blue, and he sat upright.
"Brother Xiaojing?!" Baoya exclaimed in surprise.
Rong He, who was beside Bao Ya, frowned and turned around to ask Yan Fei, who was sitting outside driving the car, "Did you let him get on the car?"
Yan Fei's expression froze, and he said in a deep voice, "It was my negligence!"
This means that Yan Fei didn't know Jingzhen got on the car, so Jingzhen's kung fu must be better than Yan Fei's.
Rong He curled his lips, lifted his skirt, got into the car, and sat next to Bao Ya.
She glanced at Jingzhen and said, "I'm taking Baoya to buy gifts. Do you want to come with me?"
Jingzhen: "On the way."
Rong He was simply amazed: "Do you know where we are going? Is it on our way?"
Jing Zhen pursed his lips and said, "It's on the way anywhere."
Rong He: ...
Okay, he couldn't drive Jingzhen away anyway, and Baoya would be unhappy.
So he said with a straight face: "Whatever you want."
Bao Ya was naturally very happy when Rong He said this. She pulled his sleeve and smiled sweetly, "Thank you, Brother Rong!"
Looking at Baoya's pink and tender little ball, Rong He's heart melted.
But he said, "Why thank me? I agreed because he is your senior brother."
"Then I have to thank Brother Rong for agreeing."
Baoya spoke in a soft voice, and Rong He's unhappiness disappeared immediately.
But in the end, the little girl turned around and started talking to Jingzhen.
Rong He looked at the two people who were chatting away, pursed his lips, lifted the carriage curtain, and called out to Yan Fei who was sitting outside driving the carriage:
"Yan Fei, chat with this young master for a while."
The three of them visited various shops in the capital and bought a lot of food and toys.
However, Baoya was very frugal. Before she came, Zhao Zhilan gave her twenty taels of silver for pocket money. As a result, she bought a lot of things and had ten taels left.
Jingzhen got off the carriage at the door of Rong's house and said goodbye to Baoya.
"I'll go with you when we set out the day after tomorrow," he said.
"Okay." Baoya felt inexplicably more at ease when she learned that Jingzhen would accompany her back.
After touring the capital during the day, Baoya and Ronghe went to bed early at night.
The next day, the two of them didn't go anywhere. They stayed in Rong Mansion to rest and accompany the old lady.
Baoya didn't expect that she would be reluctant to leave after only being here for a few days.
And on the night before she left, she finally dreamed of the manta ray she had been dreaming of.
Baoya stood in the darkness and saw a strange beast that looked like a carp but had bird wings, a white head and a red beak, and gray stripes all over its body. It flapped its wings and flew out of the darkness.
