Chapter 372 If this gentleman really gets angry, I can’t persuade him!
A quarter of an hour later, Sang Zhixia quickly arranged the necessary preparations for going out. She walked closer and saw Shen Anzhu's pale face and Zhao Zhongquan's eyes full of evasion and helplessness.
Sang Zhixia's eyes slid silently across Chen Anzhu's neck, taking in the horrifying purple bruises from his finger marks and his slow, light breathing.
Shen Anzhu suppressed a cough and raised his eyes: "Can we set off now?"
Sang Zhixia nodded and smiled: "Okay."
After saying that, he looked at Xu Yu, who was standing beside him silently with a harmless look on his face: "Husband, come with me to get something."
Xu Yu's heart was tickled by Sang Zhixia's sudden call of "husband". He followed her with his hands behind his back like a little tail, "Call me again, will you?"
Sang Zhixia couldn't help laughing at him.
Xu Yu couldn't bear the loneliness: "Zhizhi, call again?"
Sang Zhixia pushed down his hand that was on her shoulder. Xu Yu leaned close to her ear with a shy face and said, "Zhizhi, if you're really embarrassed, you can just call me brother."
"Just like that night, you..."
"Xu Yu."
Sang Zhixia paused and suddenly turned around, grabbing Xu Yu's restless hand and gnashing his teeth: "If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will tear your mouth off right now."
"Do you want to be a mute?"
Xu Yu didn't want to be mute for the time being.
Xu Yu tactfully kept his mouth shut.
Sang Zhixia was very pleased with this. She pushed Xu Yu into the house and said, "We are in such a rush and there is no time for more. I have prepared some medicine for you to take with you."
"And this, take this too."
Sang Zhixia hung the animal hide bag containing the scimitar around Xu Yu's waist and emphasized in a low voice: "Chen Anzhu is a meticulous person. After seeing your face, you should be more careful."
"Remember, it's best to get the item where you want it, but if something goes wrong and it becomes difficult to get it, your own safety is paramount."
Xu Yu wanted to say that he didn't need to bring these things, but when he looked down and saw Sang Zhixia's furrowed brows, a smile slowly spread across his lips: "If I can't get them, wouldn't it be a waste of time?"
Sang Zhixia said calmly, "We've gained so much farmland in just one trip. We've already made a profit."
"If you have more, you earn more. If you have less, it's not a loss."
Sang Zhixia tugged on the animal hide bag to make sure it was secure, then stood up and brushed the dust off Xu Yu's collar. "Next time, don't slam someone's neck against the wall. It'll be fine if you don't kill them, but you'll end up getting covered in dust."
Xu Yu lowered his head and laughed a few times without responding.
Sang Zhixia said to herself, "Do you remember what I said? Don't take any risks, okay?"
Xu Yu bent down like a spoiled child, resting his chin on Sang Zhixia's shoulder, and said vaguely, "If something really happens, will Shen Anzhu and Zhao Zhongquan save us or not?"
"They've already encountered trouble, why do you care about their life or death?"
Sang Zhixia pulled Xu Yu's face with a worried look on her face and whispered, "It doesn't matter if you die or not, as long as you are okay."
Xu Yu couldn't help laughing, and when he tilted his head, Sang Zhixia tugged at his ear: "Be a little more composed when you're out there."
"Chen Anzhu is a living key. Before you get the thing, it's not worth it to tear your face apart over such a small matter. Do you understand?"
Xu Yu enjoyed Sang Zhixia's rare chatter and couldn't stop laughing.
Sang Zhixia was so embarrassed by his shamelessness that she laughed. She held his big face with both hands and gave him a kiss: "Alright, go ahead."
Xu Yu's eyes darkened and he hooked his hand around Sang Zhixia's waist, taking the initiative and pressing her into his arms. He took advantage of her for a while before letting go with a smug look on his face.
"Zhizhi, wait here for me to come back."
"Once I bring the things back and prepare them, I'll take you out to play."
Sang Zhixia glared at Xu Yu unhappily. "All you think about is playing. Did you get infected by that kid Xu Mingyang?"
Sang Zhixia waved her hands repeatedly to signal Xu Yu to get out. When Xu Yu reached the door, she suddenly said, "Palm."
"I've put some wound medicine in your bag. Apply the medicine and bandage it yourself later."
Seeing Xu Yu turn around and smile innocently, Sang Zhixia waved her hands in disdain: "If you're still not well when you get back, I'll sprinkle chili powder on your hands and see if you dare to do it again next time."
Xu Yu kept saying that it would never happen again and strode away. Zhao Zhongquan, who was waiting below, was extremely anxious. When he finally saw Xu Yu, he couldn't help but mutter, "Those who know it's only been half a month, while those who don't know would think it's been a year or two."
"After just a few days, are you so inseparable?"
Xu Yu didn't care about being insulted and asked lazily, "How long have you been away from home?"
Zhao Zhongquan's old face was dark: "More than five months, what's wrong?"
"Have you never missed your wife at home?"
After Xu Yu finished speaking, he smiled indescribably and said subtly, "If you don't miss your wife and children at all, are you still a man?"
Zhao Zhongquan: “…”
Xu Yu said in a gloomy tone: "That won't do. If my family finds out, won't they be heartbroken?"
"As a husband, you're such a failure."
"you……"
Xu Yu tapped his toes on the ground and landed lightly on the horse's back. He grabbed the reins and raised his eyebrows playfully: "I am different from you."
"Song Liu, let Master Song get on your horse."
"Get ready to go."
Shen Anzhu said nothing the entire time, and his movements to climb onto the horse were very smooth.
Ling Chu took some time to dress her up completely like a man. Her clothes and appearance were not outstanding, and she looked like an ordinary follower.
Xu Yu was too lazy to look at her any longer. Shen Anzhu subconsciously touched his neck, which was still burning despite the scars being covered, and gritted his teeth secretly: "Are you sure the letter I sent out before has been delivered?"
Xu Yu said without turning his head: "It's delivered."
"If you don't have anything else to say, don't say anything. If someone finds out, I won't be able to take care of your life or death."
Xu Yu whipped his horse and rode away. Zhao Zhongquan put his hands around Song Liu's waist and turned his head to shout at Shen Anzhu, "Stop talking! Don't mess with him!"
"If this gentleman really gets angry, I won't be able to persuade him!"
Shen Anzhu tightened his lips in an ambiguous manner.
After I left, the only reliable person left on Qingcheng Mountain was Meng Pei.
In the letter, she emphasized to Meng Pei that he should not act rashly and must wait until she returned before making any plans.
Although Meng Pei was reckless, he still listened to her.
I just hope that the reckless man on the mountain can stay put and not cause any more trouble at this critical juncture.
Chen Anzhu quickly closed his eyes and rode his horse to catch up.
The dust raised by horse hooves gradually disappeared in front of the inn, and after a brief period of noise, the situation returned to normal.
Sang Zhixia continued to stay in Ancheng to acquire land, but he became more and more strict in checking the authenticity of the land deeds. If there was anything wrong, he would refuse to accept it.
After clearing the land during the day, the inn began to quiet down as dusk fell. Sang Zhixia called Ling Chu over and whispered, "Have you finished with that thing over there?"
"What's going on on the mountain?"
