Zhang Wuji originally wanted to host a banquet to welcome them, but the large army led by Zhou Zhiruo was still behind and would arrive in a few days, so Lu Xiaoman rejected him on this ground.Besides, there are only three of them, so it's not good to mobilize too many people. Now is an extraordinary period, everything should be kept simple, and the expenses can be saved as much as possible.

Zhang Wuji personally led them to the resting courtyard, where there were still two maidservants waiting, Song Qingshu was not used to living with strangers, so he asked Zhang Wuji to take them back, but Zhang Wuji said:

"These two are specially chosen by me to serve Miss Lu, and there are nothing else besides them. If they can accompany Miss Lu to relieve boredom, it will be considered their luck."

Song Qingshu showed a bewildered expression of "what is this kid talking about?" Shi Hongshi looked at this and then that with big round eyes, and suddenly clapped his hands and laughed:

"Okay, Brother Zhang, I can see that, are you courting Sister Lu?"

Zhang Wuji smiled and said nothing, Lu Xiaoman at the side glanced over the two maidservants, looked at him again, raised his eyebrows and said:

"Master Zhang is very thoughtful. It just so happens that I have something to say to you. Can I make it easier for you?"

"That's natural." Zhang Wuji agreed without saying a word, "Miss Lu, come here."

The two walked out of the courtyard door one after the other, and went to the small river. Song Qingshu was still watching with his neck stretched out behind him. Shi Hongshi laughed at him:

"Don't look, Song Qingshu, Sister Lu and Brother Zhang have already left."

Song Qingshu was a little annoyed, but since there were two "eyeliners" left by Zhang Wuji by his side, he couldn't express too much emotion, so he just gritted his teeth and said:

"Don't stand and talk without pain in your back. We don't know each other well here. Aren't you worried about little... Junior Sister Lu?"

"I have nothing to worry about. Sister Lu is so powerful, but you, if you have nothing to do in other people's territory, don't run around. You promised my father to take good care of the beggar gang and me."

Shi Hongshi stared at him intently while talking, and seeing a few traces of embarrassment and embarrassment flashed across Song Qingshu's face, he said confidently:

"A man keeps his promises, you don't want to let Sister Lu know that you are a person who doesn't keep his promises, do you?"

"Why did I keep my promise?" Song Qingshu was angry for a while, "Let me tell you first, I am the leader of the beggar gang for a while, and when you get old in the next year, the position of leader will be returned to you. As for me to take care of you, Don't mention it again, I... I already have a wife in my family who has never married. My love for my beloved wife is as strong as gold, and I will definitely not let her down in this life..."

After talking about it, his face was already flushed, his heart was beating like a drum, and he hurriedly glanced in the direction where Lu Xiaoman was leaving, for fear that she would overhear him.Shi Hongshi's expression turned cold, she clenched her hands tightly without even feeling that her nails were digging into her flesh.

"That's right, you actually think so." There was a hint of sarcasm in her eyes, "Then when my father entrusted me to you, why didn't you refuse?"

Hearing what she said, Song Qingshu also became ashamed and annoyed.

"You still have to give people the chance to refuse. There is no one who buys and sells like your father." Seeing the stubborn and embarrassed expression on Shi Hongshi's face, he couldn't help slowing down his tone, "Actually, these words should have been To make it clear to you, I just saw that you were still young...but now that you have grown up, it is time for you to shoulder the responsibility. From now on, I will teach you the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. You have to study hard. Will inherit your father's mantle in the future."

Shi Hongshi glared at him with red eyes, turned his head and ran without saying a word, Song Qingshu exclaimed behind him:

"Hey where are you going?!"

Here, Lu Xiaoman and Zhang Wuji took a walk along the river. After exchanging pleasantries, Lu Xiaoman saw that the atmosphere was good, so he took out the tin box from his arms and handed it directly to the person next to him:

"Thank you, Master Zhang, for your love, but please take this precious thing back."

Zhang Wuji was taken aback for a moment, took the gorgeous tin box inlaid with jewels, looked at her face and asked carefully:

"Miss Lu, what do you mean by this?"

"Of course it's returned to its original owner."

Lu Xiaoman smiled at him, but Zhang Wuji's expression became even more inexplicable.

He was silent for a moment, opened the tin box, first played with the jade hairpin for a while, and then opened the letter with a serious face.

"Heh." Looking at it, Zhang Wuji suddenly let out a sneer, as if he wanted to say something, but he held back his gaze.

Although Lu Xiaoman thought it was a bit strange for him to act like this, but since the other party had accepted the jade hairpin, she let go of her mind and couldn't help but feel relaxed.

"Master Zhang is so noble and honest, I admire him very much, but you and I are gentlemen, why do you need these external things?" She thought for a while, and then continued, "Back then, the Mingjiao generously donated gold and silver to Emei, but now the sect leader is leading the army. Coming to help you and so on is considered reciprocal, and may Emei and Mingjiao have a good relationship from generation to generation."

Hit a stick and then give a sweet date, I hope Zhang Wuji will not blame Emei because of her rejection.

"Oh?" Zhang Wuji raised his eyebrows, and the smile on his face became more and more strange, "When did you give the gold and silver that Mingjiao gave?"

"Isn't it?" Lu Xiaoman frowned, and was made to mutter by his reaction.

[The person who wrote this letter and sent those gold and silver, if it wasn't Zhang Wuji... who else would it be? ]

"Since you don't want it, just destroy it."

Zhang Wuji frowned and pondered for a moment, and unexpectedly crushed the jade hairpin. Before Lu Xiaoman could stop it, he saw the jade flakes falling from the gap between his palms.

A strange emotion flashed through her heart, and she couldn't help saying:

"It won't be destroyed directly... It's a good jade..."

"If you like it, I'll give you another fresh pattern some other day. I don't want this one." Zhang Wuji said in a cold voice, staring at the shallow layer of white debris on the ground.

"No need, I've finished what I wanted to say, Master Zhang, take my leave."

Lu Xiaoman waved his hands, bowed to him chicly, turned around and walked in the direction he came from.

After she left, Zhang Wuji stood alone for a long time holding the letter, and then said suddenly:

"Come on."

But within two or three breaths, a ghostly figure in a black costume suddenly appeared behind him. The man knelt down on one knee and asked respectfully:

"What is the Lord's order?"

"Go and check," he folded his hands behind his back, raised the slightly yellowed letter paper in his hand, and said almost as if gnashing his teeth, "Who wrote this letter, and who was the gold and silver in Emei a year ago?" Send it, let me check it carefully!"

"Yes, my lord!"

After the black shadow responded, it disappeared in the blink of an eye, along with the page of letter paper that fell to the ground.

After Lu Xiaoman went back, he saw that Song Qingshu and Shi Hongshi seemed to be sulking, and they ignored each other, but the two maidservants sent by Zhang Wuji were still quietly waiting in front of the door. She thought about it, and said softly to the two said:

"I don't need anyone to serve me here, so go back wherever you came from."

The two maidservants looked at each other, and immediately fell to their knees in fear:

"Girl, the servants are here to take care of your daily life at the order of the leader. If, if they are driven back...the leader will definitely blame you."

"Yes, yes, please let the girl take pity on me, the servants are very grateful."

Lu Xiaoman sighed with a headache. Hearing what they said, Zhang Wuji seemed to have a lot of prestige on weekdays. Otherwise, the people below would not be so afraid of him. It's just that they don't know what kind of medicine this guy sells in his gourd. It's only been two years. No, why does it feel like he is even more perverted...

But in any case, she didn't say anything about driving people away for the time being.

Although the special banquet for them was canceled, Zhang Wuji still held a small banquet in the yard and invited them to have a light meal.The table was full of acquaintances, except for Lu Xiaoman and the other three high-ranking members of Mingjiao headed by Zhang Wuji. After a meal, the strangeness and estrangement between the two parties were visibly eliminated. At least on the surface, everyone was in harmony. , lively.

"Oh, I haven't seen Miss Lu for a long time. Now, it seems that the girl is as beautiful as yesterday and has the same demeanor!"

Seeing that the atmosphere at the table was getting better and better, Wei Yixiao also held a glass of wine and approached Lu Xiaoman to greet her.

He said nonsense with a smile, and had a drink with her on his own, while Lu Xiaoman gulped down the drink in the glass, and said with a smile:

"I'm overwhelmed. In my opinion, Bat King's demeanor is the same as it was back then!"

These two people went back and forth blowing rainbow farts to each other for a while, and they seemed to be in a good mood, but the scene of them having a happy conversation fell on some people's eyes, and Zhang Wuji, who was sitting in the main seat, suddenly Chaolu Xiaoman said:

"Actually, I should have invited you here a long time ago. It's just that the military is busy with affairs and has never been free."

"As the saying goes, it's better to come early than coincidentally. I think the timing is just right now."

Lu Xiaoman responded impeccably, and his attitude was very polite. Hearing this, Zhang Wuji just smiled, didn't say anything, and raised his glass to her again.

Not two days after the banquet, Zhang Wuji sent someone to send a golden hairpin with plum blossoms, saying it was a compensation for her. Lu Xiaoman saw that the hairpin looked exquisite, as if it was newly made. Although it was very beautiful, she was still returned as it was. .As a result, on the second day, the man brought five hairpins of different designs for her to choose, saying that the leader had ordered her to choose the jewelry she wanted.

To be honest, after dealing with Zhang Wuji for so long, Lu Xiaoman has a deep understanding of his rascal behavior. In order to save trouble, she randomly picked a gold hairpin with pearls, and finally sent him away up.

"Girl, look, our leader attaches great importance to you!"

"Yes, yes, the leader has never been close to women, but he has never been so nice to other girls."

"Miss, do you want to wear this gold hairpin?"

"Girl has good eyesight, this hairpin is perfect for your outfit today!"

"No need, put it away."

The two maids sent by Zhang Wuji also wanted to brainwash her whenever they had the opportunity, and Lu Xiaoman was so annoying.

"I'm going out for a walk, don't follow me."

With a firm attitude, she stopped the two from following, and she wandered around aimlessly. When she passed a small forest, she heard a slight movement behind her, and Lu Xiaoman immediately shouted loudly:

"Who?!"

There was no one behind her, only the rustling of the leaves in the wind.

In the past few days, when she was alone, she could always hear some strange noises and a faint sight, as if someone was watching her from the dark.But if you look carefully, you can't find anything, which makes people feel completely upset.

[Who the hell is it... Could it be that I'm too much of an enemy? ]

She stood there quietly for a while, and finally left with a full stomach.
