Enter Chang Xiangsi and help Jingzhai fight

Chapter 109 Keeping Promise

I thought to myself, I dare not, I can just ask Xiao Hui to read it. I looked up and saw his eyes were bright, with a hint of expectation.

Yes, last time Brother Eighteen’s letter made him laugh so hard that he fell backwards, and we both laughed so hard, so I guess he also wanted to listen to some fun this time.

In this way, I will fulfill his wish.

I smiled and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, young master."

He opened the envelope, opened the letter and said, "Brother Nineteen: How are you doing recently? Last time I read your reply, the boss saw it. He seemed a little annoyed that you didn't ask him how he was. His face was so long after reading it that it could freeze ice chips! This time when you reply, please ask about him! Also, we fought another battle with Xuanyuan a while ago, and many brothers were injured. I'm exhausted these days. I heard from the boss that your master bought out all the best medicines and medicinal materials in Dahuang. Can you please sell me some? Don't raise the price too much, we are poor. Looking forward to hearing from you."

I couldn't help laughing, and then I remembered the series of promises Tu Shanjing made to me. My heart moved, and a warm feeling spread from my heart.

I looked at him and said, "Master, you are... trying to make Yue Liang's arm hurt, but you don't have any good medicine to use?"

He smiled and nodded, and replied, "Yes, but he should not care about the pain in his arm now - some people in the court reported him several times, saying that he formed a clique for personal gain, spent money on wine and women, kept mistresses in a luxurious house, and corrupted the morals. He should have a bigger headache than the pain in his arm now."

I clapped my hands and laughed, "It hurts so much, it hurts so much, it hurts so much!" Then I bowed to Tu Shanjing and said, "Thank you for helping me vent my anger."

Tu Shanjing looked at me steadily and said word by word: "I promised you, so I want him to pay me back a hundred times or a thousand times."

My eyes felt a little warm, his words were worth a thousand gold, and what he promised me came true so quickly.

Seeing that I was about to cry, he quickly changed the subject and asked, "Are you going to write back to your eighteenth brother? Should I write it for you?"

I blinked hard and replied, "Don't bother me, sir. I'll ask Xiao Hui to write it for me later. But I have two things to ask of you."

He sat down at the table and asked, "What's the matter? Tell me now."

I walked over and said, "The first thing I want to do is to ask you to sell some medicine and herbs to my brother and his family. What's the price..."

I hesitated, wondering if he had paid a high price for the buyout, and if I asked him to give me a lower price, would I be left with too much loss.

"Don't worry, I will sell it to them at cost price, which will not be more expensive than the market price." He understood my hesitation and spoke.

"Thank you, sir. The second thing... I would like to ask you to deliver a letter to His Highness Xuan. I wonder if you can find him?"

He was startled, looked up at me and asked, "What do you want to do with him?"

I explained, "My eldest brother mentioned fighting with them, and I remembered that I had promised him that if I had any news about the person he was looking for, I would tell him."

Tu Shanjing's expression calmed down a bit, and he said, "Indeed. Did you have the dream again?"

I chuckled and said, "No. I just didn't tell him everything I knew before. I left some information out. I was afraid that if I didn't contact him for too long, he would come to blame me. So I told him some news first to get rid of him."

He shook his head and laughed, "You, you dare to keep secrets from him. Aren't you afraid that he will make you suffer if he finds out? How can he be fooled? I see that he has been searching for a long time. Why don't you tell him everything you know, so that he can be relieved of his suffering."

I raised my eyebrows: "I won't let him know. He shot me with an arrow, and I hold a grudge against him! And..."

I thought, if I told him that Xiaoyao was in Qingshui Town, and he went there in advance, the timeline would be in chaos. I dare not do such a drastic thing. What if something unexpected happened that I didn't know about and it was difficult to deal with? It is safest to follow the timeline and deal with it as it happens.

"And in my dream I saw the scene where he finally met the person he had been looking for. What can I say? Hard work will eventually pay off. It's not that there is no reward, it's just that the time has not come yet. So let him wait for a while. Anyway, he has been waiting for decades, so he can wait for a while." I said pretentiously.

"This idiom is for you to use, it's a mess!" Tu Shanjing smiled bitterly and spread out the paper on the table.

I hurried over to help him grind the ink and said, "I still need to learn a lot from you! Sir, just write this: I saw her carrying a small basket in the mountains, picking some mushrooms, sitting by the stream to wash her hands, and then taking chicken feet and duck necks out of the basket to eat."

Tu Shanjing paused, looked up and asked, "That's it?"

I nodded and smiled, "That's it."

Tu Shanjing asked again: "Then...will he be satisfied with this?"

I replied, "The more he knows, the better. Who knows how happy he will be! This time he may send people into the mountains to search all the mountains with streams and mushrooms. Don't worry, sir. Now that he has something to do, he won't bother us."

Tu Shanjing laughed as he wrote, saying, "Even the great His Majesty Xuanxuan has been manipulated by you. You are really amazing!"

I tilted my head and said with a smile, "I dare not order him around! If he wants to do it himself, I can't control it!"

After Tu Shanjing finished writing the letter, he put down his pen, blew away the ink, and said with a smile: "Cunning~"

I packed up my writing brush and ink, and said, "I am just following my master's example."

Tu Shanjing pointed at me from a distance and said with a helpless smile: "You, you are so sharp-tongued!"

I chuckled, ran to the door, turned around and said, "Thank you for the compliment, sir! I'll go find Xiao Hui to reply to my elder brother's letter for me."

After saying that, I opened the door and ran away, not giving him a chance to fight back.

Xiao Hui was still writing in his room. He spent almost the whole day with pen and ink, and his hands were covered with calluses. When he saw me come in, he helped me write back to my elder brother.

After writing the letter, Xiaowei ran up and called us to the private room for dinner.

The three of us walked to the innermost private room, chatting and laughing, and saw Tu Shanjing already sitting inside, with Ruiyang and Senying standing behind him.

Seeing us come in, Tu Shanjing said, "Everyone is here, please sit down."

I said "hmm", pulled up my skirt and sat down, and Moriying behind him gave me a look.

I saw that everyone else was standing, so I quickly stood up too.

Sen Ying said, "Sir, there is a difference between master and servant, we dare not sit down."

Tu Shan Jing smiled and said, "Don't be afraid. This is not in Tu Shan's house. No one can see us. Don't be afraid of being reported. This trip has many twists and turns, and it will take much longer than I expected. Today I am finally free. Today, there will be no distinction between master and servant. Let's just sit together and have a good meal to comfort everyone."
