After I became a passerby, I saved the villain's family

Fu Jichu took the handkerchief handed to him by his subordinates and slowly wiped the blood from his fingertips.

At this time, a subordinate came quickly.

"Second Master." The subordinate said respectfully.

"Ah."

Fu Jichu responded coldly.

"Go out and talk."

After saying that, he was pushed out by his men without even looking at the man on the ground.

The gambler on the ground had his eyes wide open and blood was still flowing out of his mouth.

The skinned arm lay limp on the ground like a pile of rotten flesh.

The person has lost his breath...

In the study room.

Fu Jichu sat at the table, fiddling with a small rattle in his hand.

"Dong-dong-dong, dong-dong-dong."

The rattle swings from side to side, making a crisp sound.

"Second Master."

The subordinate stood in front of Fu Jichu and reported to him what he had found.

"The man with the young lady tonight is indeed Mr. Luo Ci, who was invited by the Xie Mansion."

"But just now, my subordinates followed him and found that the attendant beside him was a martial artist, and secretly, there were three people protecting him."

The sound of the rattle stopped.

Fu Jichu was deep in thought, and realized that he came prepared.

"Second Master, then we..."

The men looked at Fu Jichu.

Fu Jichu thought about it for a moment.

"Keep watching and look for an opportunity to strike."

"Yes, Second Master." The subordinate responded and retreated.

The sound of the rattle sounded again.

Fu Jichu looked at the rattle that was swinging in his hand.

"Second Master, there's another letter from Kyoto." said his subordinate Hei Jue.

"explain."

"They want us to get rid of Luo Ci as soon as possible, and also send the recent payment for goods as soon as possible."

Hei Jue reported one by one.

Fu Jichu sneered.

How could a prince of a country be so short of money?

"Got it, go do it."

"Yes." Hei Jue responded.

"Has the box of china that was lost yesterday been found?"

Hei Jue lowered his head.

"Replying to Second Master, not yet."

Fu Jichu stared at the rattle in a trance.

"Hei Jue, twelve hours have passed."

Hei felt his back tighten and he knelt quickly.

"I have failed to perform my duties properly. I will be punished immediately."

Fu Jichu did not comment.

"Where is Miss?"

"Replying to the Second Master, the young lady has returned to the Qinglian Courtyard."

"Ah."

Fu Jichu stopped talking.

The rattle in my hand is still swinging gently...

The next morning.

At the dining table, Jiang Ruoli stared at the bump on Jiang Ci Jin's forehead.

"Third brother, you finally got beaten up? Which hero couldn't stand you taking action?"

Jiang Ruoli reached out to touch the bump on his head.

"hiss--"

"It hurts, be gentle."

Jiang Cijin complained.

"I accidentally knocked it while moving goods yesterday."

Jiang Ruoli sneered, "Then you are really stupid."

She could finally say this to him!

Jiang Ruoli was secretly happy.

Jiang Ci Jin felt helpless when he saw Jiang Ruoli's smug expression.

"But have you applied the medicine?" She still wanted to show some concern.

"I wiped it yesterday."

"That's good." Jiang Ruoli nodded. "By the way, Third Brother, has anything strange happened to you recently?"

According to the time, the third brother should be about to discover the illegal salt by now.

Jiang Ci Jin was stunned.

"There's nothing strange about it. Why are you asking this, little sister?" Jiang Ci Jin said.

Jiang Ruoli was very confused.

How could that be? It should be these two days.

Did she remember the time wrong?

"It's okay, I'm just asking casually." Jiang Ruoli said.

Seeing that Jiang Ruoli didn't suspect anything, Jiang Ci Jin breathed a sigh of relief.

"Third brother, where are you going?"

Jiang Ruoli was worried.

If Third Brother went to the dock, she would have to find a way to go with him.

"I have to go to town to check the accounts today. What's wrong?"

"Oh, that's fine, forget it."

Jiang Ruoli glanced at Fuping and saw that he was holding a small wooden box in his hand.

"Third brother, do you need to bring... a toolbox to check the accounts?"

Jiang Ci Jin picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea without changing his expression.

"in case."

Jiang Ruoli was speechless.

Is there anything else I need to bring just in case?

Jiang Ci Jin put down the teacup and stood up.

Under Jiang Ruoli's puzzled gaze, he left leisurely.

......

After lunch, Song Ayao squatted at the door waiting for Jiang Ci Jin.

She had lived in the mountains since she was a child and had no playmates of the same age. Even after moving to Liancheng, the children from ordinary families were afraid of her and avoided her.

She was naturally very much looking forward to finally meeting a friend of the same age as her who was willing to play with her.

"Miss, please go in and wait. It's too hot outside." Qingqing advised.

Song Ayao shook her head.

She wanted to see Mr. Luo Ci as soon as possible.

Song Ayao didn't have to wait long before Jiang Cijin's figure appeared in her sight.

"Master Luo!"

Song Ayao waved at him excitedly.

Jiang Ci Jin smiled and walked towards her quickly.

"Ayao, have you been waiting for a long time?"

Jiang Ci Jin looked at her rosy little face.

"It's okay, Mr. Luo, let's go in quickly."

As she spoke, Song Ayao pulled Jiang Ci Jin into the yard.

The courtyard is quiet and peaceful, with two ponds of lotus flowers blooming quietly and waves of fragrance coming with the wind.

Jiang Ci Jin came into the room and saw the daily furnishings in the house, then he reacted.

It turns out that Qinglian Courtyard is not a place for viewing, but Song Ayao's boudoir.

Jiang Ci Jin laughed.

This girl has such a big heart.

"Ayao, I didn't know that this was your boudoir. It would be impolite to come here rashly." Jiang Ci Jin bowed.

Song Ayao tilted her head and looked at him.

"It doesn't matter. You are not someone else, and you are not the only man here."

what?

Jiang Ci Jin was shocked.

What do you mean?

"There are a lot of my second uncle's people gathered outside the courtyard." Song Ayao explained.

It turned out to be the case.

Jiang Ci Jin breathed a sigh of relief.

He thought...

Well, maybe I can find some evidence against Fu Jichu from this girl.

"for you."

Song Ayao handed yesterday's kite to Jiang Ci Jin.

"Did you bring your tools today?"

Jiang Cijin smiled slightly, "Of course I brought it."

Placing the kite on the large table, Jiang Ci Jin opened the toolbox he brought, took out the tools and began to repair the broken skeleton.

At first, Song Ayao watched Jiang Cijin's hand movements seriously.

His fingers were long and strong. He held the tool in one hand and the kite in the other. His movements were slow but serious.

Song Ayao blinked.

His hands are so beautiful.

After a while, Song Ayao's gaze slowly moved to Jiang Ci Jin's face.

At this moment, he was very focused, his eyes carefully fixed on the movements in his hands.

It was as if what he was repairing was not a kite, but some treasure.

His face is also good-looking.

Realizing what she was thinking, Song Ayao blushed slightly.

She withdrew her gaze and continued to watch Jiang Ci Jin's actions.

Paper kites are fragile, so Jiang Ci Jin carefully fixed the broken frames and reinforced the other loose frames.

"All right."

Jiang Ci Jin handed the kite in his hand to Song Ayao.

"Wow!"

Song Ayao took the kite and waved it in her hand.

Really solid.

"You're awesome!" Song Ayao praised sincerely.

Jiang Ci Jin smiled and put away the tools in his hand.

"Let's go out and let it go!"

Song Ayao shouted excitedly.

After saying that, without waiting for Jiang Ci Jin to react, he pulled him to the backyard.

The two flew kites for the whole afternoon.

Song Ayao's eyes sparkled with excitement and her face flushed.

"so fun!"

“How come you are so awesome!”

Not only can he repair kites, he can also fly them far and high!

Song Ayao looked at Jiang Ci Jin with admiration in her eyes.

Jiang Ci Jin burst out laughing.

Is that so amazing?

As dusk was approaching, Jiang Ci Jin prepared to say goodbye.

"Mr. Luo...when will you come again?"

Song Ayao looked at Jiang Ci Jin with some reluctance.

"Ayao, do you want me to come again?"

Song Ayao bit her lip and nodded slightly.

It's really fun to be with him.

Jiang Ci Jin looked down at the innocent and well-behaved girl in front of him, and his heart softened.

"Then I will come to see Ayao tomorrow, okay?"

Jiang Ci Jin touched her head.

Song Ayao grinned.

"A word is settled!"

"Well, it's a deal."
