Rebirth Strategy: Please let me go

The four of them were sitting on the street, eating hot wontons as the smoke of fireworks rose.

On the street not far from them, government officers and soldiers had surrounded the entire street on the other side of the bridge, preventing others from entering.

Two days have passed since the fire broke out that night and the four people narrowly escaped. The fire burned so fiercely that night that it burned half of the street. If it hadn't rained early the next morning and prevented the fire from spreading, I'm afraid the fire would have burned down. Burn down the whole street.

"Fortunately, we are blessed with great fortune. The inn is right by the river, otherwise we would all have perished in the flames." Hong Li lamented their good luck for the first time while eating wontons.

An Jinshu put the last wonton into his mouth, put down his chopsticks, put a few copper coins on the table, and then looked at the person opposite: "Have you finished eating?"

The woman raised her head, her beautiful eyes like glass filled with a dazed expression. She realized that she had gone too far, and quickly took a few of the untouched wontons into her mouth, and then spat them out in a panic as they were so hot. .

"No, don't be disgusting if you don't eat it." Hong Li held the bowl away in disgust, fearing that the water she spit out would splash into his bowl.

"Follow me, I have something to tell you." An Jinshu stood up and walked aside.

The woman quickly got up and followed him.

When they reached a quiet place, An Jinshu turned around and stretched out his hand.

The woman behind her looked at her strangely, not knowing what she was going to do.

"Reach out your hand." An Jinshu said in a deep voice.

The woman reached out her hand hesitantly.

An Jinshu grabbed her wrist, and the woman narrowed her eyes in fright and was about to shrink back, but An Jinshu didn't give her a chance and put the things in his hands into her hands, which were a few golden melon seeds and a few Bits of silver.

She froze and looked up at An Jinshu not understanding what she meant.

An Jinshu was not polite and said directly: "When we go out, we all have no control over ourselves. I saved your life and took care of you for two days. I have done my best to be benevolent. Today we will go our separate ways here. Don't follow me anymore." Go and find your companions."

After saying that, she raised her feet and left without waiting for the other party to reply.

Unexpectedly, the other party suddenly stopped in front of her, blocking her way.

An Jinshu was furious. Good guy, how can you save someone and still stick to it like a dog-skin plaster?

She was about to say a few more words, but she didn't expect that the other party directly held out a gold bracelet and looked at her eagerly. His voice was a little low but could be heard clearly: "I have no companions and I don't know where I'm going. I'll give you this gold bracelet. You can’t ask me to follow you.”

This was the first time An Jinshu heard her speak in two days. She thought the other person was mute.

"You can speak, so why didn't you answer the questions I asked you earlier?"

"I was scared."

Seeing that An Jinshu didn't accept her things, she thought it was too little, so she took off the hairpin from her head and gave it to her: "This hairpin is very valuable. My money was lost in the sea of ​​fire that night. This is all I have." too much."

Looking at the objects in her hands, An Jinshu had to admit that she was indeed moved. Now it is no better than before. What can you do if you don't make money? There will be more places to spend money in the future.

But she also knows that the money is not easy to get. The other party is either rich or expensive. What if she gets into trouble?

The main reason is that getting into trouble is a small matter, but exposing one's identity is a big deal.

An Jinshu thought about it, but finally decided that it would be better not to agree for the sake of safety, so she shook her head and backed away.

"I can't ask you to follow me anymore. I want to go home. It doesn't matter if a girl from your innocent family follows a man like me. I can't delay you. These things should be enough for you to go home if you can exchange them for silver."

"I can not go back."

An Jinshu frowned and stared at her: "Why can't you go back?"

The woman shook her head, as if she had something unspeakable: "I can't go back anyway. If I go back, it's better to die outside."

For the first time, An Jinshu felt that it would be difficult to save people randomly.

When he asked her to go back, she said she would die. When he asked her to leave, she refused to leave. If he asked her to follow him, there would definitely be trouble later. What a big deal...

"It's okay to follow me." In the end, An Jinshu was defeated. They were both lost in the world. Since the other party had nowhere to go, he told her to follow him first, and then leave when she had somewhere to go.

Anyway, she is wandering around now and has no home. Since she saved people, she will simply be a good person and do it to the end.

She was already far away from Kyoto and Gu Qingchen. Even if this person was from a rich family and would cause trouble, she would not meet Gu Qingchen.

After all, what are the chances for ordinary people to see the emperor's face? If something really happened that could only be decided in person before seeing the emperor, she might have been beaten to death on the road before she even saw Gu Qingchen.

"But I have three conditions. If you can do it..."

"I can."

An Jinshu: "......"

She didn't even finish her words!

"I can accept any conditions, as long as I can follow you."

An Jinshu: "?"

There's a weird feeling...

It must be an illusion.

"First, my sisters are timid, so we have to stay together at night. As for you, stay alone."

"Secondly, the money I gave you is the only silver we have left. If you want to follow me, I still have to ask for the bracelet. Just treat it as your expense for following us. I will deduct it according to the weight when you want to leave. , the remainder will be returned to you.”

"Third, I don't like troublesome people, so if you can't bear the hardship, just leave."

"If you can meet the above conditions, then follow. If you can't, it's still too late to leave now."

After An Jinshu made the three conditions, the woman handed the bracelet and hairpin to her hands without any hesitation.

Then he looked at her eagerly: "I can accept it, but..."

"but what?"

The woman bit her lip and looked away, as if what she wanted to say was hard to say, so she hesitated.

But when she saw the impatient look on An Jinshu's face, she immediately said: "I'm also timid, so...can I live with you?"

An Jinshu: "..........No."

When they returned, Hong Li and Ah Li had already finished their meal and were standing on the street waiting for her. When they saw them coming back, they hurriedly greeted them.

Now that he had decided to ask the other party to follow him, An Jinshu formally introduced each other to Hong Li and the other two: "This is Xi Ji, and she will accompany us from today on."

Hong Li was shocked and looked at Ah Li, then looked at An Jinshu.

An Jinshu winked at the two of them, and the two of them immediately understood and introduced each other to Xi Ji.

Then while waiting for Xi Ji to leave, the three masters and servants immediately gathered around.

Red Carp: "Miss, you are crazy. How can we easily ask outsiders to accompany us in our current situation?"

Ah Li: "Yes, Miss. It's not easy for the other party to see his identity. There won't be any trouble."

An Jinshu took out the gold bracelet and hairpin: "For the sake of money, it doesn't matter if you tolerate her for a while. Anyway, you two should pay more attention to your words and deeds in front of her and don't let anything slip."

Although Hong Li and Ah Li felt it was inappropriate, An Jinshu had already nodded, so they had no choice but to accept it. At worst, they would be more careful not to expose any flaws in the future.
