Ji Changying patted his head and nodded in approval: "It's a nice name. Who came up with it?"
Lin Zhien had a bit of pride on her face, and she raised her chin slightly and pointed at herself.
"Did you take it yourself?"
Ji Changying was a little surprised.
Lin Zhien nodded.
Ji Changying smiled: "I didn't expect that after not seeing you for a while, the dog has become much more knowledgeable. That's great!"
Lin Zhien had a shy smile on his face, but it was obvious that he was very happy with Ji Changying's praise.
"Some time ago, during the slack season, my father and uncle were called out for military training. I prepared a set of soft armor for each of them. This one is yours, take it."
Ji Changying handed the bag she had packed to Lin Zhien: "There's also some meat sauce made by your Aunt Hu in it. It's also for you. Although we can't come here often, we all miss you."
He pursed his lips, his eyes a little red, and reached out to take the bundle and hugged it tightly in his arms.
"Your brother Xiaochuan and brother Mingxuan are busy studying and preparing for next year's imperial examination! Brother Mingxue ran away from home and went to the military camp. I don't know how brother Minghao is doing in the private school, but can you imagine? The entire notebook on his waist is filled with his writing, and he has to start over with a new notebook. It's obvious that he has been doing other things secretly..."
Ji Changying chattered to him about some recent events. Lin Zhien listened very carefully, and his face would smile or frown from time to time depending on the content.
After wasting a quarter of an hour, Ji Changying stopped talking: "You should work hard here and practice martial arts well. Then the barbarians will be terrified of you when they see you, and they will be scared to death when their name is announced!"
Lin Zhien smiled innocently, touched her head, and clenched her fist to show that she could do it.
"Is anyone bullying you here?"
Lin Zhien smiled and shook her head.
Ji Changying's face relaxed: "That's good, you have to work hard, I'm leaving too."
Although he was reluctant, he still let go of Ji Changying's sleeve and waved to her with a smile.
"Actually, what I hope most is to hear you speak again one day."
Ji Changying sighed, touched his head lovingly, and left the martial arts school.
Lin Zhien kept watching her until she was out of sight, then turned around and went back with the things in her arms.
Back in the classroom, the teacher was reading incessantly, and more than twenty sleepy children were sitting below.
Everyone was cheered up when they heard he came back. The child who had disliked Lin Zhien before immediately rushed up and tried to snatch the bag from his arms.
Seeing him, Lin Zhien stepped back, holding the bag in one hand and fighting with him with the other hand, not losing at all.
"Good! Good! Good!"
When the other students saw the two fighting, they immediately became excited and applauded.
The teacher was used to this and was too lazy to scold these stubborn children. He simply pulled up a chair and sat on the side to watch...
The first thing Ji Changying did when he returned to the city was to go straight to Huang Dadao.
That’s what she said!
How could those idle people be hanging around the grain store for no reason? They must be 'accomplices'!
It seems that Huang Dadao’s last lesson was not enough.
Ji Changying didn't mind at all letting the other person sober up.
After throwing the horse to the gate of the yard, Ji Changying jumped onto the top of the wall.
This time, however, there were quite a few people in the yard, and several thugs were surrounding Damao: "Second brother, we actually saw that female devil around that shop today! She scared us so much that we didn't dare to stay there and just turned around and ran away."
"The devil? Why is she there?"
"How would we know that?! What's even scarier is that her eyes met mine, and I felt like she was going to eat me. It was so scary!"
"So are we going or not? Han Dianshi told us to keep an eye on the shopkeeper and not let him down until he shows up with the money!"
"Well...why don't you go and see if that female devil has left?"
"I'm not going! You go!"
"you go!···"
As they were talking, a few people started pushing and shoving each other in the yard, and each one looked more cowardly than the other.
"Where are you going? You don't have to go. I'm here."
Ji Changying jumped down from the courtyard wall. Damao, Guaizi and others were so scared that they took three steps back.
"W-w-why are you here?"
It was clearly a questioning voice, but the stuttering sounded unconvincing.
"Weren't you guys just talking about me? Why are you still looking like that? Where's Huang Dadao? Get out here!"
The last time, Ji Changying clearly yelled at Huang Dadao in the house.
Huang Dadao, who was lying in bed resting and had not yet fully recovered from his injuries, was startled when he heard the angry shout. He immediately stood up and crawled out of the room.
At a glance, he saw several of his younger brothers huddled in the corner, shivering, and right in the middle of the yard stood the beginning of his nightmare.
"Heroine, what brings you here? Come and sit down!"
When Huang Dadao saw the person, he immediately turned around and moved a stool forward, respectfully placing it behind Ji Changying's butt and asked her to sit down.
Ji Changying gave him a cold look: "You are so sensible, yet you dare to do this?"
Huang Dadao was stunned: "Ah? What's going on?"
"Don't play dumb. I'm telling you, the owner of that shop is my uncle. You're quite brave to go there and extort money. I heard they've been targeting that place for a month, right?"
Ji Changying picked up the stool and folded it gently, and the legs of the stool turned into a stick. She weighed it in her hand and found that the length and weight were just right.
"Calm down! Calm down! Let me ask what's going on first!"
Huang Dadao saw that she was about to attack again, his face turned pale with fear, and he quickly ran towards Damao and the others and growled, "What did you do!"
Damao cried, "Didn't Brother Cripple have his eyes on a grain store before? We went to see it a few times, but didn't you tell us to leave it alone? So we didn't go. A few days later, Brother Cripple... died. We didn't do anything during this period. Just the day before yesterday, Han Dianshi suddenly came to us and asked us to do something. He asked us to go to the grain store and keep an eye on the owner. Once the matter was settled, he gave us ten taels of silver, and we went."
Huang Dadao was extremely angry: "Didn't I tell you to leave it alone?"
The beggar said weakly: "Big brother said to leave the lame brother alone, and he didn't say anything about Han Dianshi..."
Huang Dadao was so angry that he almost strangled these brothers to death.
Han Dianshi and Liu Quezi are in the same group, so does it matter who they are?
Thinking about how Liu Quezi died completely and shamefully, even though he didn't know if it was an accident or not, but...
Turning his head to look at Ji Changying, Huang Dadao shuddered. He always felt that it was this female devil who did it.
But he didn't dare tell anyone about this.
"You guys! You idiots! I told you to stay out of it, yet you still went over there! Do you think your life is too long?!"
