On the way home, Zhang Shixun walked silently. The scenes on both sides of the street seemed like two different worlds compared to the scenes in Wuyou Cave.
In order to prepare for the catastrophe in a few years, we must unite all the forces that can be united and make as many friends as possible.
In special times, we cannot always look at the people around us with a fighting eye.
Standing at the height of national civilization, if possible, he would even be willing to unite people like Cai Jing, Liang Shicheng, Tong Guan, and of course people like Gao Qiu.
When they were almost home, they saw Sangou standing at the door looking around from a distance. Seeing Zhang Shixun coming back, Sangou jumped up to greet him and said, "Master, Madam Ding is here to see you."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Shixun hurried into the yard.
"Mr. Zhang, where have you been? I've been waiting for you for a long time, from the height of the sun to sunset, and from sunset to the time of lighting... Ouch! You stink!"
Ding Dusai covered his nose and took two steps back.
"I'm so sorry, I went to Worry-Free Cave again and stayed there for most of the day."
Ding Dusai was surprised: "Why did you go into Wuyou Cave again? Are the government going in to crack down on us again?"
"The government has come and gone to clear it out several times, but it hasn't been completely eradicated, and it's impossible to do so. This time I'm going in to solve the problem of Wuyou Cave once and for all."
"Once and for all?"
"Well! At least minimize the harm these people cause."
"You're not in danger, are you?"
"No, I'm not bragging, but there's no one in this world who can hurt me."
"Sir! I believe in your ability, but don't be careless. A cautious approach can lead to a long-term safety."
"I'll be careful, don't worry." Zhang Shixun said, and said to San Gou who was standing beside him with a silly smile: "Hurry up and boil some water for me to take a bath."
San Gou agreed and went. When he reached the kitchen door, he stopped and turned around and said, "Oh, right! Gao Yanei came several times today. It seems he has something to ask you."
"Oh! I see."
The two of them came to the living room, and Zhang Shixun said apologetically: "I stink, so I won't pour you any tea."
Ding Dusai covered his mouth and laughed, "My lord, you stink as if you just came from..."
Seeing that she stopped talking mid-sentence, Zhang Shixun said self-deprecatingly, "You mean to say that I look like I just got out of a cesspool, right?"
"I didn't say that, you said it yourself."
Zhang Shixun saw the radiance on her dimples, and his heart was suddenly moved: "Saisai, you are so beautiful!"
Ding Dusai's face flushed, he gave him a blank look and lowered his head.
"Saisai, what do you want from me?"
"Can't I come if I'm fine?" Ding Dusai asked with a pout.
"Of course you can come, you're most welcome. I wish you could come every day." Zhang Shixun said hurriedly, but he thought to himself: It's best not to leave once you come.
Ding Dusai blushed slightly upon hearing this. "I do have something to tell you. My sisters and I have already drafted the charter for the Women's Federation. Sister Li asked me to bring it to you for your opinion. Also, last time at Fanlou, you promised to teach Xu Poxi, Xue Zida, and Wang Jingnu the Jiqin. They asked me to ask when you plan to start teaching them."
She took out a stack of neatly folded papers from her sleeve and wanted to hand it to him, but when she saw his dirty hands, she frowned and retracted her hand.
"Put the charter on the table first. I'll take a closer look later."
"What about teaching Xu Poxi and the others to play the qin?"
"This..." Zhang Shixun hesitated, and after a moment's thought, he said, "I've been incredibly busy lately. Starting tomorrow, I'll be training soldiers in the Tianwu Army. Tell them to wait until we're done with this."
"You are busy with important matters. There is no rush to learn the piano." Ding Dusai was not at all displeased. Instead, he looked relieved.
In her heart, she didn't want any woman to get close to him, especially people like Xu Poxi, who were all the most beautiful ladies in the capital, with both beauty and talent.
Seeing this, Zhang Shixun smiled secretly in his heart. Women's little thoughts are really cute.
"The weather is getting colder, and you don't have many clothes. I went shopping the day before yesterday and bought you some clothes, from innerwear to outerwear." Ding Dusai said shyly.
"It's really hard for you. Men don't know how to buy clothes."
"The clothes have been brought over and are all placed there." Ding Dusai pointed to the stool next to him, where a large package was placed.
"Saisai, you are so nice!" Zhang Shixun said sincerely.
"Leave your dirty clothes for me in the future and I will wash them for you." Ding Dusai twisted his sleeves and said with his head down.
"Great! I was worried that no one would wash my clothes." Zhang Shixun agreed repeatedly.
"Also, my dad said...said..." Ding Dusai said, embarrassed.
"Oh! What did Uncle Ding say?" Zhang Shixun was a little nervous.
The old man has a strange temper and is a little difficult to serve.
"My father said that you are not allowed to bully me. If you dare to bully me, I will smash your head and beat your stomach blue." Ding Dusai said this and then burst out laughing.
Zhang Shixun exaggeratedly touched his head, then his stomach, then his nose, and said, "Uncle Ding, what you said is in vain."
Ding Dusai raised his head and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"
"A beautiful and gentle woman like you is hard to find even with a lantern. I'm already heartbroken, so why would I bully you?"
Ding Dusai's face turned red again and he lowered his head.
"Master, the bath water is ready." Sangou came in from outside, "Do you want me to help you carry the bath water over?"
"No need. You're young, and getting scalded by boiling water is a big deal." Zhang Shixun said, and then turned to Ding Duchui: "Don't leave, let's have dinner together."
"Okay, you go wash up and I'll cook for you." Ding Dusai stood up from the stool.
"Can you cook?" Zhang Shixun was a little unconvinced.
"I've been learning to cook from others these days, so I know a little bit." Ding Dusai said a little awkwardly.
"Oh! Really?" Zhang Shixun felt a little surprised.
"You, a man, can cook. What's the big deal about a woman learning to cook?" Ding Dusai rolled his eyes at him, held his head high and walked out of the living room.
After taking a shower and changing his clothes, Zhang Shixun looked energetic. He had taken off his wig and let his wet hair hang down casually.
In his previous life, he always complained that his hair grew too fast and had to get a haircut every month or so.
It has been a few months since I came to Song Dynasty, and my original short hair has only grown more than one foot. It grows too slowly.
"Hey! Why has your hair become shorter?" Ding Dusai was stunned when he saw him.
"My hair is too long and uncomfortable, so I just cut it short." Zhang Shixun explained.
"It's too short. I can't even tie my hair into a bun. How can I go out?" Ding Dusai complained.
"After dinner, please help me." Zhang Shixun was not at all shy.
"It's too short, it's not easy to manage." Ding Dusai looked at his short hair worriedly.
"I believe you will find a way." Zhang Shixun was very confident in her.
Ding Dusai rolled his eyes at him and said, "Let me try."
