The return trip took longer than the trip there. Ran Shaotang wanted to arrange everything before entering the city, so he delayed the trip on purpose.

Finally Jiuchou sent Fang De to go ahead. He and his people separated Shen Weiyong's carriage and Shaotang's carriage into two square formations. In this way, if Shaotang wanted to send people to Shen Weiyong's place, he would have to go through him. agree.

Hua Guan took out a bag of broken silver given by Zhong Jiuchou and slapped it in front of Shaotang, expressing his loyalty: "Young master Zhong gave me the hard-earned money because he said that I would easily get cold from running back and forth in the cold weather. This money is for buying a coat." My maid has not unbuttoned even a single bit of it, it’s all here.”

Ran Shaotang looked at Hua Guan's pretty face that said, "Wealth cannot be kinky." He took the silver and bumped it, muttering that Zhong Jiuchou was such a prodigal. He raised his eyes and asked Hua Guan, "Are you short of a coat?"

"There's no shortage. When did our Ran Mansion lack the clothes and food for the servants to eat and drink?"

"That's good." Ran Shaotang put the silver into his arms, mouthed towards the boiling water on the stove, "make tea."

Hua Guan glanced at Ran Shaotang's bulging chest, raised his ampulla and cursed, "The new master is good in every way, but he loves money as much as his life, and the tiger's teeth want to pick a piece of meat off."

In the evening, the team arrived at a small town to rest.

Chamberlain Xu wanted to rent an inn by himself without getting involved with people like Ran Shaotang, but Jiuchou ultimately refused.

Poor Waiter Xu had no choice but to be helped into the room.

I was so angry that I didn't even come out to eat at night, so I asked my entourage to bring food into the house.

Shen Weiyong dragged his wounds and knocked on Shaotang's door himself. Hua Guan came out to welcome him. He looked down at the budding green plum he was holding in his hand, blinked and smiled.

Qingmei took it into the house, but was turned away.

"The young master has gone out, and the maid will convey it to her when she comes back." After saying that, she closed the door.

Shen Weiyong remembered that in the last life, when this little maid learned about Shaoshang's death, she came to fight and had her brother's servant strangle her to death. He was stunned for a while outside the door, and then dragged his injuries back to his room.

The dusk in winter is fleeting. The setting sun was still there when I just went out, but now, the sky has darkened.

Zhong Jiuchou walked beside Shaotang, with a white cloak draped around her body, which made her petite figure even more obvious, which was quite different from the previous male attire.

The more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and couldn't help but step forward and hold her hand.

"Let go." Ran Shaotang glared at him, smacked him twice but didn't pull back, so he kicked him with his legs.

Finally Jiuchou had to let her go.

"Shaoshang, what on earth are you thinking? Why did Hua Guan come to Shen Er so frequently in the past two days?"

Ran Shaotang raised his head and raised his eyebrows: It's quite smooth to change his words. It's only been a few days, and I've been wearing Shaoshang one by one, which is really good.

"Since you know that I am Ran Shaoshang now, you should understand that my thoughts are useless. Can I resist the order?"

"I can."

"You?" Shaotang smiled brightly, and finally Jiuchou blurted out: "Actually, there is something I have always wanted to tell you, but I haven't found the right opportunity. I..."

"Hey, Young Master Zhong ran out? Are you not watching the Shen family anymore?" Zong Zhengshen appeared out of nowhere and jumped in front of the two of them, interrupting Zhong Jiuchou's confession.

"What's the point of watching a loser? Prince Rui, if nothing happens, leave quickly. The eldest prince hasn't gone to your father's place to give you eye drops recently, so you have nothing to do."

Finally Jiuchou pulled Shaotang behind him, consciously keeping the dangerous person away.
