Liu Yun looked towards Hu Zi and saw that Hu Zi, seemingly without a care in the world, was carrying a pottery jar. He responded and then happily followed Ali.
"Sister Yue Li, slow down, I can help you."
"I can manage on my own, you just watch where you're going."
Ah Li held a torch, and Hu Zi carried a pottery jar. His gaze fell on Liu Yun, who was walking ahead of them. Liu Yun wore a black guard uniform and looked dashing and heroic.
He actually wanted to become a bodyguard, but he didn't know any martial arts.
The path down the mountain at night is difficult to walk on and a bit slippery.
When the group returned to the courtyard, they were immediately warmed by the warmth inside.
It was warm inside the courtyard, and several braziers were lit.
The people following Liu Yun all went back. Liu Yun walked to Wang Zhixian's side and said, "Master, the person has been brought back."
Wang Zhixian held a cup of ginseng tea in his hands, his lips were a little pale. He looked at Ali and found that there was a man about the same height as her next to her.
Furthermore, she was wearing men's clothes!
Wang Zhixian calmly asked Liu Yun, "What were they doing when you found them?"
Liu Yun replied, "I'm collecting dew."
At this moment, Wang Zhilu looked towards Ali. He recognized the man; he had served his elder brother quite well.
"Brother, now that the person is back, you should go and get some rest."
Wang Zhixian coughed twice. "You're tired. Go back and rest first. I have things to do here."
“If you need anything, just tell me and I’ll do it for you.”
"You can't do this."
Wang Zhixian looked at Ah Li and said, "Yue Li, come in."
Hu Zi, clutching the earthenware jar, was already feeling the warmth around him and wanted to find a place to lean against and warm himself up. Hearing his master call Ah Li over, he reached out and tugged at her sleeve, "Sister Yue Li, dew."
"Give it to me."
Ali took the pottery jar from Hu Zi's hand. Hu Zi grinned and said, "Then I'll go back first."
"Okay, go back and boil some hot water to wash up."
"Yes, I know."
Tiger responded, but his eyes were fixed on Ali, whose clothes he wanted to take back.
His mother had taught him that he shouldn't leave his clothes at the home of an unmarried girl, or people would gossip.
It's not cold now, so it should be okay to let Ahri take it off and give it back to him, right?
Ah Li met Hu Zi's gaze, and Hu Zi pointed somewhat embarrassedly at Ah Li's body, saying, "Sister Yue Li, your clothes."
Ahri chuckled, raising her hand to unbutton her clothes, saying, "I was planning to wash it for you and then bring it over."
"No need, Sister Yueli. Thick clothes won't be warm if you wash them too many times. You don't need to wash them."
Tiger stared at Ahri as she unbuttoned her clothes.
From the moment Hu Zi started speaking, Wang Zhilu's gaze fell on Wang Zhixian. Oh, his older brother's lips weren't white anymore; they were all bitten red.
"Brother, do you want a knife?"
Wang Zhilu walked over to Wang Zhixian and spoke in a low voice.
Wang Zhixian glared at him unhappily.
On the other side, Ahri took off her outer clothes, revealing her own clothes underneath, which were neatly arranged.
Tiger took Ah Li's clothes and chuckled, "The clothes that Sister Yue Li wore are really different, they smell so good."
Wang Zhixian suddenly stood up and looked at Liu Yun, "Go, kill him."
Wang Zhilu raised his hand to stop him, and his voice, tinged with a smile, rang out, "Don't make a move yet. This person is simple-minded; he was just saying it casually."
Wang Zhilu thought Hu Zi was quite amusing; having someone as simple-minded as him around would definitely be interesting.
Wang Zhixian was inside the house; his voice wasn't loud, but it could still be heard from outside the courtyard.
Tiger whispered to Ah Li, "Who does Master want to kill?"
Ali silently took two steps back, putting some distance between herself and Hu Zi, and said, "It's okay, you can go back first."
"I'll be going now, Sister Yue Li, see you tomorrow."
Tiger hugged his clothes and left happily.
He was tired after collecting dew all day.
Yue Li went towards the house, while Xing Hua and Chun Hua were still standing in the corner.
Yuegui was still kneeling, and she looked at Ali. This person was no prettier than her, and his personality was just so-so.
Ah Li stood at the doorway, looking down at her shoes. She couldn't go in, so she called out, "Young Master."
Wang Zhixian snorted, "What are you doing standing there? Come in."
"Young Master, my feet are covered in mud, so it's inconvenient for me to come inside."
Wang Zhixian's room was carpeted.
Wang Zhilu said, "Then go back to your room and change your clothes before you come back to answer."
"Yes, Second Young Master."
Ahri left the large courtyard without looking to the side and returned to the small courtyard next door.
Wang Zhixian stood up, looked at Xinghua and Chunhua standing in the corner, and Yuegui kneeling, and said, "Go down, all of you."
Wang Zhilu raised an eyebrow slightly, and Wang Zhixian gave him a cold look, saying, "You should go back to your courtyard too."
"Brother, I still want to have a long talk with you by candlelight."
Wang Zhixian looked at Liu Yun and said, "Please invite the second young master back."
"Brother, you know that Liu Yun can't beat me."
Liu Yun simply stood in front of Wang Zhilu, his expression serious: "Second Young Master, this way please."
Wang Zhilu understood; his elder brother had never intended for Liu Yun to use force to force him to leave.
"Okay, I'll go back to my yard."
When Liu Yun stares at you without smiling or speaking, it's like he's a mannequin, and that feeling isn't pleasant.
