Su Cai didn't see his daughter, so he didn't dare to stay here any longer.
When he was packing up his belongings, he had already heard the news that his good master Zhao Linger had killed more than a dozen guards around Zhu Wenzhen.
No matter how stupid Zhu Wenzhen is, he will find this place quickly.
Su Tanmei is quite famous in Jiangsu. If she doesn't leave here as soon as possible, the consequences will be unimaginable.
…
Su Cai now has no choice but to leave as soon as possible.
Because Zhao Linger did not give him the power to choose, his only chance of survival was to quickly escape to the area north of the Yellow River.
…
Half an hour later, Zhu Wenzhen had already investigated Su Tanmei's background, but when he led a large number of troops here, he found that Su Tanmei and the entire Su family had left.
Zhu Wenzhen was furious. It was not a pity to let Su Tanmei go. There were plenty of beautiful girls in Jiangnan, especially in Suzhou, which was a place rich in beauties.
But letting Zhao Linger go was a huge pity. Zhu Wenzhen now only regretted that he did not recognize Zhao Linger at the first time.
Zhu Wenzhen was filled with regret. He knew that if he could capture Zhao Linger alive, whether he could enjoy her himself or give her to his uncle, it would be a great achievement. Unfortunately, he missed out on such a great achievement.
…
That night, Zhao Linger dragged Su Tanmei to spend the night in the wilderness thirty miles outside Suzhou city.
This was the first time that Su Tanmei had spent the night in such a place since she could remember.
By the campfire, Su Tanmei took off her shoes and gently rubbed the soles of her feet with her slender hands.
Seeing this, Zhao Linger couldn't help but laugh: "Girl, if my master saw you doing this, he would definitely skin you alive on the spot."
With tears in her eyes, Su Tanmei said aggrievedly: "Master, I, I have never walked so much in one day in my life. My feet are all blistered."
Zhao Linger smiled bitterly. She grabbed Su Tanmei's ankles, put her feet on her skirt, and then said, "It's so beautiful. The young master likes this the most. You will definitely suit his taste."
Then, Zhao Linger drew the scimitar from her waist.
This action scared Su Tanmei: "Master, don't."
Zhao Linger rolled her eyes at her and said, "Nizi, didn't I tell you? Just call me sister. Don't be afraid. I just want to help you clear the blisters on your feet."
"This way, it will be easier to walk tomorrow."
"We are in the wilderness now. Judging from your appearance, you probably don't know how to ride a horse. When there is a chance, I will help you find a carriage. This way, you will suffer less."
As she spoke, Zhao Linger picked open the blisters on Su Tanmei's feet. Poor Su Tanmei, it was the first time in her life that she screamed in pain.
Zhao Linger laughed and said, "You are such a useless girl. You only have a pretty face. My junior sister is a hundred times stronger than you. Back then, my junior sister was hit by three arrows and almost died, but she never even said a word of pain."
"If I didn't think that you are a girl with some talent, you really don't deserve to stay with the young master."
Su Tanmei said aggrievedly: "Master, no, sister, my talents are all pretended. I am a woman, how can I have any talents? It's just that people think I am pretty and they flatter me. Sister, please let me go. It would be a burden to bring me along."
Zhao Linger smiled and waved the scimitar in her hand. After one slash, a strand of black hair fell from Su Tanmei's ear: "You little girl, if you don't have some real talent and knowledge, I will kill you now."
"But if you have some real talent and knowledge, my son will soon be able to learn to read and write. Instead of hiring another teacher, it is better to find you. After all, they will be our sisters in the future. I will feel more at ease with you teaching."
Su Tanmei's face was full of aggrieved expression: "Sister, you, you just want me to be a teacher?"
Zhao Linger laughed: "Silly girl, how is that possible? I want you to work part-time as a teacher. You are so talented, and my master would be better off without someone like you around him."
"Nizi, remember what I said. Not everything in life can be decided by yourself, especially for someone as beautiful as you. At least I have no intention of harming you. It's a good thing that you fell into my hands today. If you fell into Zhu Wenzhen's hands, the best outcome for you in the future would be to become a widow, because Zhu Wenzhen is the person I must kill. Even if I can't kill him, the man behind me will help me kill him."
"Do you understand the logic behind this?"
Su Tanmei really doesn't want to get involved in these worldly disputes.
But she never dreamed that in the end, she would be involved in these things.
Su Tanmei sobbed and said, "I understand. I understand what my sister said. It's all the fault of the world. What's hateful is that there are only two heroes in the world."
Zhao Linger smiled and said, "I told you that you are a smart person."
"Don't cry, some things just require getting used to. In the next year, just stay with your sister. I will set some rules for you. In the future, when you meet Zhang Wuji, you will definitely like him."
…
Zhao Linger was truly devoted to Zhang Wuji, and even at this time, she did not forget to take in a talented woman for him.
…
That night, the two of them fell asleep directly in the wilderness.
Fortunately, it is the middle of summer now, and they are in Suzhou, a place with a pleasant climate. Even if they lie directly on the ground, they will not feel cold.
However, this is already very good for Zhao Linger.
After all, when she accompanied Zhang Wuji to conquer the world, she had slept on the grass in winter. But for a talented woman like Su Tanmei, this was the first time for her to get into a sedan chair.
In the past ten years or so, Su Tanmei has grown up in luxury.
Su Cai only has one daughter, so naturally he wants to give her the best of everything. In such an environment, Su Tanmei finds it difficult to fall asleep. The surrounding environment is filled with either the chirping of insects or the singing of birds. The most important thing is that she really can't stand Zhao Linger's sleeping posture.
She is obviously an extremely beautiful big sister, but when she sleeps, she likes to hold others tightly in her arms.
Su Tanmei felt very uncomfortable and didn't fall asleep until about midnight.
But just after she fell asleep, she heard giggling and rustling sounds around her.
Su Tanmei, who was sleeping, opened her eyes in shock.
She was horrified to find that there were countless tiny dots of light around her.
However, at this moment, Zhao Linger, who had been holding her in her arms, said lazily: "Don't be afraid, sister will protect you."
