Chapter 214: Let Yourself Go Your Way
Meng Yu said calmly, "They are all fine. You saw it, Mom. They are very skilled. There are three more people, three against two. They caught those two!"
"Did they catch him?" Zhao Susu breathed a sigh of relief. Being robbed and killed suddenly, no matter what the reason was, her life was threatened.
The most reassuring thing is that the bad guys are caught.
"It's a pity that I didn't ask the benefactor's name, and I don't know how to repay him." Zhao Susu sighed.
"I asked." Meng Yu smiled.
Zhao Susu's eyes lit up: "Really? What did you ask?"
"They will stay at the Jixiang Inn, and they are people we know."
Zhao Susu was puzzled: "Someone we know? No! I don't know any of them. Are they people you know, Ayu?"
Meng Yu smiled and reminded: "We have seen them in the suburbs of Jiazhou. Mother, please think about it carefully."
When the number three was mentioned as a clue, Zhao Susu immediately raised her eyes and asked, "Are they the three military commanders?"
Meng Yu nodded: "Yes!"
Zhao Susu laughed.
The three men outside Jiazhou City were covered in dust, and the three men today were also covered in dust.
However, at that time they had long beards and their faces were covered with dust, but today their faces are clearly visible.
Zhao Susu immediately said, "Ayu, would you like to accompany me to meet them?"
"Are you in such a hurry?"
"They must have something else to do, and they may leave tomorrow. If you want to thank them, you should thank them in person."
Zhao Susu prepared a generous gift, thought about it, and then prepared some supplements and selected three sets of finely crafted clothes.
Meng Yu handed her a long and thin box.
"What is this?" Zhao Susu asked as she opened it.
Inside was something as thick as a finger and as long as a finger, covered with eight nodes, like a bamboo with too many nodes, but it was completely black, moist and smooth, and exuded a medicinal fragrance.
"Four Seas Bamboo!"
Zhao Susu's hands trembled, and she almost dropped the box. But she quickly closed it and held it tightly.
Oh my god, is this the legendary Bamboo of the Four Seas? The kind that is more expensive and rarer than the hundred-year-old ginseng?
It is said that one small section is worth the price of a hundred-year-old ginseng. Ginseng with more than five sections is hard to find in the world. This one has nine sections!
"This... the gift can be prepared by my mother. This thing is too valuable. You can keep it for yourself, Yu!"
Those three people saved her life, so she was willing to spend any amount of money, but she couldn't use Ayu's money.
Meng Yu pushed it back: "Mom, in my heart, your life is more valuable than this bamboo. They helped us, so we should give them anything!"
This was the reward given to her by Xiao Niu when she reached the level of a great martial artist and physician in both medicine and martial arts.
She had another one in her hand.
Zhao Susu thought so too. To express her gratitude for saving her life, she naturally had to give an expensive gift. The things she had prepared were indeed not enough. With this Four Seas Bamboo, she should be able to show her sincerity a little.
Frightened by the assassination attempt by Ruan Dong and Ruan Xi, Zhao Susu wanted to take more people out, but was stopped by Meng Yu: "Mom, you are going to thank others. If you go with great fanfare, what if you bring trouble to others?"
"Then, should I bring less?"
"Ask Uncle Luo Song to be the driver, and don't bring anyone else!"
Zhao Susu hesitated, and Meng Yu said, "Mom, this is in the county town, and the two bad guys have been caught!"
Zhao Susu always listened to Meng Yu, so she called Luo Song over.
The two went to the Jixiang Inn.
When I asked at the counter, the person refused to reveal the customer's information.
Fortunately, at this moment, a man walked in from the side door at the back. Meng Yu was surprised: "Uncle Feng?"
Feng Zhi was also slightly startled, then he smiled and said, "It's Xiao Mengyu!" He glanced at Zhao Susu, then looked at Luo Song who was following behind with a lot of bags, and smiled slightly.
Zhao Susu greeted him generously: "Manager Feng, long time no see, how are you doing recently?"
Feng Zhi smiled and said, "Very good, very good. The young master has transferred me here to be the shopkeeper. Madam Zhao, everything is fine too. I heard earlier that you have opened a shop in the county town!"
"It's just a small business. I'm sorry to embarrass you!"
"Mrs. Zhao, please don't say that. You are a capable person. The business of your shop is very good. My wife loves the clothes you sell the most. I have said before that it is a good thing that your shop has opened in the county town. Otherwise, I would have to travel a long way to buy your clothes."
After a few pleasantries, Feng Zhi asked, "Madam Zhao, what are you doing with all these bags?"
"There's a friend living over here, come and see him!"
"Oh, really? Do you know his name?"
"His last name is Pei!"
Feng Zhi approached, took the registration book, and looked it up himself, then said: "Yes, he checked in a while ago. He is in the upper room. Wang Shu, come and take these people to the upper room to find Master Pei!"
A waiter came forward enthusiastically: "Please come this way!"
Zhao Susu thanked Feng Zhi and followed the waiter.
The young manager at the counter was puzzled: "Boss, didn't you say that we should pay attention to the privacy of our customers and not disclose their information at will?"
Feng Zhi shook his head helplessly and smiled: "You are too rigid. We cannot disclose the information of the guest, but these people know that the guest is staying here and came to visit us. You shut out our guest's friends. Do you think our guest will be happy if he knows about it?"
"But they don't know which room the guest is staying in. What if he's not here to visit?"
"Be smart, don't you see the gifts they are holding? Also, remember that Miss Zhao and that little girl, they are the young master's friends. If they say something in front of the young master, you will be in big trouble."
The young steward was immediately frightened, his face changed: "Boss, you have to help me, I'm just following the rules!"
"Alright, alright! Just be thankful that Madam Zhao and that little girl aren't mean people. Be more discerning next time and don't just know one thing! Use it flexibly, understand?"
"Yes, yes! I remember it!"
Fang Wen saw that it was still early, so he said to Pei Mingqiu, "Master, aren't we going out?"
"I'm not going out!" Pei Mingqiu usually wouldn't stay in the inn at this time, but when he thought of the cute and soft girl saying that she would bring her mother to thank him, he thought, if he went out, the mother and daughter would come and wouldn't be able to find him?
Although the child's words might not be carried out, and he might not come today, Pei Mingqiu still decided to wait at the inn.
He looked at Fang and asked, "As usual, you and Fang Fu decide between yourselves who will go out!"
Fang Wen laughed immediately. Of course it was him. He was an expert at gathering information. Besides, what kind of information could be found in this small county?
Pei Mingqiu watched him go out happily, then he withdrew his gaze, walked to the window, and looked out. He was playing a big game of chess, and no link could be neglected.
In fact, after meeting Pei Hongmiao, he chose to stay. Of course, it was to wait for Mu Guanchu, but it was also a bit willful.
But he still let himself be willful for once.
