Originally, after Yuefang was handed over to Qiao Sangyu, she could move into the new house, but because Qiao Sangyu left, she had to delay it for a while.
And that damn Xia Yuhui really left after she said those words to him, and as a result, he had to ask her about all the things that were supposed to be his responsibility!
Tang Shiyue, who had shot herself in the foot, was so busy that she was exhausted. She told Ding Xiaoyan more than once: "I will not agree to this marriage! Wait until they come back and see how I will deal with him!"
Ding Xiaoyan scratched his ears out of boredom: "You're just talking big and don't practice! How about I send a message to ask him to come back? Or have someone tie him up and bring him back?"
Tang Shiyue choked.
She glared at Ding Xiaoyan for a long time, "Is Ding Jiu still not well? When he gets better, I will send you back. You are such a mean person."
"Why am I a bad person?" Ding Xiaoyan felt wronged: "I am the most kind-hearted person among the Dragon Guards..."
He suddenly tilted his head, then quickly turned back, bowed to her, and went out to greet her.
After a while, Tang Shiyue saw the men in black again. The leader knelt down neatly and said, "I am the eleventh Dragon Guard. I have been ordered by the emperor to protect the county lord."
The people of the Dragon Guard rarely leave the emperor's palace and have never protected even the sons and grandsons of dragons and phoenixes. Yet, they come to protect such a common county lady. Even Ding Xiaoyan is a little surprised.
...
...
Tang Shiyue frowned and said, "No, I don't want it. I can only accept Ding Jiu's protection."
Jia Eleven was stunned for a moment.
Then Ding Xiaoyan said anxiously: "Don't worry, County Lord. Ding Jiu is here. The emperor didn't punish him."
"No," Tang Shiyue said, "I want Ding Jiu."
Jia Shiyi frowned: "County Lord, we are here on the orders of the Emperor."
What you mean is, are you going to disobey my order?
Tang Shiyue hated this the most, she immediately said: "I..."
"County Lord!" Ding Jiu must have seen the signal as he hurried in and quickly knelt on one knee: "Ding Jiu thanks County Lord for protecting me. But Ding Jiu's injury has not healed yet. Even if he recovers, his Kung Fu will be affected. He is no longer suitable to be a Dragon Guard. I am afraid he can no longer take on the responsibility of protection."
Tang Shiyue wanted to speak, but Ding Jiu said quickly: "But the emperor ordered Ding Jiu to stay here, Ding Jiu is willing to work for the county lord..." He looked up at her: "I think Ding Jiu can share some of Xia Yuhui's work."
Tang Shiyue's eyes suddenly lit up.
She patted Ding Jiu on the shoulder and said, "Okay, okay! I'll give you double the wages! You take over all his work, exclude him! Suppress him! If you ask him to come back, you won't have money to support your wife! I'm optimistic about you!"
"Yes," Ding Jiu bowed his head respectfully, "Ding Jiu respectfully obeys your order."
Jia Eleven watched coldly.
Ding Jiu's completely submissive yet vaguely friendly attitude really took him by surprise.
Seeing that the two had finished their long-winded talk, Jia Shiyi said calmly, "I have brought sixteen people with me to protect the county lord."
Tang Shiyue raised her eyebrows: "Oh, whatever you like."
She turned around and left, and Jia Shiyi was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
Ding Jiu stood up, and after the greetings, he briefly handed over the work to Ding Xiaoyan, and then started to deal with Xia Yuhui's work. It was not complicated. He had followed him for a few days and had seen him recover from his injuries during these days, so he quickly got the hang of it.
Tang Shiyue was able to continue staying at home.
But she didn't feel comfortable at all staying at home this time.
After all, whether it was Qing Weilai or Ding Jiu, they never restricted her from doing anything, and never even showed up in front of her, but they would definitely be there when she called.
But this Jia Shiyi, she has to tell me when she goes to the martial arts gym to practice calligraphy, she has to tell me when she goes to the mountains to practice martial arts, and she has to tell me when she goes to play with lynx at night. In short, she is not allowed to go anywhere or do anything. It's so annoying.
The next day, the workshop delivered a new rickshaw. Tang Shiyue wanted to go out for a test drive, but Jia Shiyi stopped her directly: "No, it's not safe. You'd better stay home."
You'd better stay home...
She heard this sentence at least ten times in two days!
Tang Shiyue couldn't stand it any longer: "Go buy a coffin! Go now! Buy a coffin and I'll sleep in it, and you just stay outside to guard the grave. This is the safest way!!"
Jia Eleven stood straight, motionless, his eyes full of arrogance and impatience.
He felt that this county lady was somewhat unreasonable.
But even if she was unreasonable, he was ordered to protect her, and he would never dare to put a fifth-rank county lady into the coffin... Moreover, her significance was not just a fifth-rank county lady, she was the Queen of Fortune! She was the Queen of Fortune who offered the smallpox vaccination technique and the wind-curing wine!
He swallowed his anger and said: "We are all for the safety of the county lord! Please don't make trouble unreasonably!"
Tang Shiyue was so angry that she grabbed a pen and wrote a letter to Yandong.
While writing, he called out, "Ding Xiaoyan! Send it to Yandong immediately! I can't afford such a noble dragon guard! If you think I'm disobeying your order, just sentence me to death. I don't care! I'd rather die than live such a miserable life!"
That’s what she said and what she wrote.
After finishing writing, he asked Ding Xiaoyan for a bamboo tube.
Jia Shiyi was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that she would dare to do this. She was too impulsive!
His face turned pale and he hesitated whether to kneel down and apologize.
Ding Xiaoyan glanced at him, took the paper with a grin, and crumpled it up casually: "Auntie, why are you so angry about such a small matter? It's just a test drive, I'll pedal it for you! I was jealous just now, you asked me to try it! It must be fun! Please!"
He pulled her sleeve, pulled her out, and pedaled the bike for her himself.
Jia Shiyi stood at the back with a cold face, looking disdainful, but in his heart he was somewhat relieved.
You know, she had just rescued Prince An, and the third prince was cured by her with a few glasses of wine, otherwise the emperor would not have been so sentimental as to send out the Type A person.
If this thing is sent over, the Emperor will never punish Lady Fu. Instead, he and his subordinates... will be severely punished.
Fortunately, Ding Xiaoyan blocked it with a joke.
It was just a try, but once the tricycle was on the road, it really was like a roller coaster, whizzing around, and even Jia Eleven was a little shocked.
Tang Shiyue sat down to feel the ride for a while, and then wanted to go to the front to pedal. Ding Xiaoyan quickly advised: "Auntie, I can do this."
Tang Shiyue said, "No, this bike is new, there is only one in the world. If I ask someone to pedal, how would I know how much effort they need to put in? Are the handlebars, seat, and wheels comfortable? Which part needs to be improved? So I must try it myself."
Ding Xiaoyan recalled the time when she went to the workshop to test the fan, and realized that this was indeed her attitude when doing things, and she was speechless.
She kicked and he didn't dare to sit!
But Meng Yiqiu dared. He called the second young master Meng over, and he immediately sat on it. Tang Shiyue pedaled it carefully for a circle, proving that she could pedal well on a flat road with someone sitting behind her.
But the wheels of that time were not as smooth and durable as those of later generations, and the chains were replaced by rolled belts, so the friction was insufficient, so it was definitely still a bit laborious.
She pedaled for a while and pointed at someone casually: "You, go up."
The person being pointed at glanced at Jia Shiyi, and seeing that he didn't stop him, he went up. Tang Shiyue only pedaled about 20 meters this time, and felt that he couldn't do it anymore. He was sweating profusely from exhaustion: "No, I can't pedal anymore!"
She climbed down, took the handkerchief handed to her by Meng Yiqiu, and wiped the sweat from her forehead. "It seems that when there are two people on top, only young and strong people can kick it."
A villager happened to pass by and when he saw the car, he came up to have a look. Tang Shiyue called him, "Uncle Chen, come up and help me try it and see if it's laborious."
Chen San was eager to do so, so he went up and pedaled a few times, and he didn't feel tired even after he returned to the village.
Tang Shiyue was speechless: "So it's because I'm too boring."
At this time, the villagers also saw it and gathered around to watch the curiosity. Seeing how excited Chen Sandeng was, many people asked him how he felt.
Tang Shiyue smiled and said, "Whoever wants to try it, go up and try it, walk to the big locust tree and come back, then tell me how it feels."
