When he heard that he wasn't going, Brother Liu didn't say anything more. He wasn't one to watch a spectacle, but he'd never seen a hanged person before and wanted to see it. If he arrived late and the coroner from the yamen got there first, he would have already taken the person down.
Upon hearing this gossip, some of Mu Zitao's subordinates couldn't help but glance at their master. "Look at him, so low-key in his acts of chivalry and justice. He doesn't even care whether the people he's helped know."
But what about their own masters? They're always thinking about making a grand show of being a hero and rescuing a damsel in distress. The difference is...sigh!
Several people felt that it was normal for their master to be in the capital, the military camp, or the battlefield. Now that there was peace and no war, he was feeling somewhat uneasy, which might explain his unusual behavior.
Sigh, when they return to Beijing, what will the old general or the general say when they ask the young general what he did on this trip?
If it is said that the young general's trip to relax was not only about staying at Young Master Dong's place for a few days, but also about him taking a fancy to a young lady, I wonder if the old general and the other generals would be shocked!
Mu Zitao caught a glimpse of the varied expressions on his subordinates' faces out of the corner of his eye, which only fueled his anger. He put his hands behind his back and strode toward the noodle shop not far away.
I have no appetite, I'm not hungry, but I still need to eat.
As they passed the steamed bun shop, their master still didn't stop, and Baqian and Sanjin couldn't help but sigh again.
Ever since leaving Mopan Town, the master hasn't eaten any steamed buns on the road, even though he used to love them.
On the donkey cart outside the town, Hong Xiaoduo took out several purses given to her by the aunt from the clothing shop in Mopan Town. She picked out a blue one, then took out a few silver coins and a handful of copper coins from the purse at her waist and put them in.
"Tian Shu, here you go. It'll be convenient for buying small things on the road." She handed the purse out the front window.
"Huh?" Tian Shu thought he had misheard. "If you need to buy anything, just tell Mother. What if I accidentally drop it?"
“Just take it. Why ask me about everything? I’d rather you than not. Just be careful so you don’t lose it. You’re the eldest of the seven, so you usually take care of the younger ones. If they see candy or sesame cakes they want to eat, you can buy them some.” Hong Xiaoduo said, then extended her hand forward again.
Tian Shu hesitated for a moment, then took the purse with both hands and asked in a very low voice, "Aren't you afraid I'll misuse it?"
Pu Hong Xiaoduo laughed out loud: "Don't be afraid, because if you dare to misuse it, I'll beat you up." After saying that, she raised her fist at him.
Tian Shu smiled when he heard this, knowing that his mother trusted him and wouldn't waste the money.
"Haha, now I can ask my big brother for candy!" Yao Guang clapped her hands happily in the carriage.
The other children wanted to tell Yaoguang no, but after glancing at Hong Xiaoduo beside them, they held back and thought they would have a good talk with Xiaoyaomei when their mother wasn't around.
Hong Xiaoduo was thinking about whether to buy a few more small purses to put some small change in for each child when she suddenly heard the old man at the science museum calling her: "Hong Xiaoduo..."
