Chapter 349
"Is that so?"
Zhang Xiaohua looked at Little Orange maliciously and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will rob you?"
"Ah?"
Little Orange's face was also full of fear. She trembled and said, "Young master, may I ask, are you going to rape me?"
Zhang Xiaohua's face immediately turned red. She slapped the head of the deer and ran away.
"I was teased, I was teased."
Zhang Xiaohua thought as she ran away.
Seeing Zhang Xiaohua gradually disappear into the distance, Little Orange's mouth revealed a smile. But when she looked at the young miss next to her, her face became a little worried.
At this time, Zhang Xiaohua's voice came from not far away, "Little Orange, tidy up the things in the carriage. Wait for me to come back and rob you!"
"This guy ~" Little Orange said as she stood up. Yes, there were a lot of things in this luxurious carriage. There was still a long way to the young miss's villa. If she didn't tidy it up properly, what would she use in the future?
Fortunately, Little Orange was a servant girl. Tidying up was her job. In a short while, she tidied up everything neatly and waited for Zhang Xiaohua's carriage to pick her up.
But after waiting for a long time, there was still no sign of her. Little Orange couldn't help but feel her heart beat faster. Could it be that her good eye for people was not accurate?
Could it be that this seemingly honest young man from the countryside took the money and ran away?
Moreover, when she thought of the assassin that could appear at any time, her heart was in her throat.
Just as Little Orange was about to get out of the carriage and draw circles on the ground to curse Zhang Xiaohua, he heard the sound of a carriage not far away. He looked up and saw a worn-out carriage being pulled by Huan Huan, the four odd beasts. "Zhi la, zhi la", the carriage was slowly moving towards them.
In an instant, the cold of early winter disappeared. Little Orange had the urge to jump up.
Huanhuan pulled the carriage very slowly, as if it was very unwilling. Zhang Xiaohua was not in a hurry. She sat cross-legged and let it do as it wished. When they arrived, Zhang Xiaohua jumped down from the carriage and smiled, "Little Orange, you must have been waiting for a long time."
"Yeah, you're dead … Where did you go?"
Little Orange immediately realized that something was wrong and quickly changed his words. He looked down at the ground and squinted at Zhang Xiaohua. "What took you so long?"
Zhang Xiaohua didn't seem to hear anything and said embarrassedly, "I'm not very familiar with this place, so I asked a few people. Moreover, there are no places that sell carriages, so I had to look for several places before I found a seller and bought this carriage. Look, isn't it very inconspicuous?"
Little Orange was still thinking about its slip of the tongue and did not notice this. It just nodded randomly. Zhang Xiaohua continued, "Besides, Huanhuan is supposed to pull firewood. Now that it's pulling the cart, hehe, it's not happy. That's why it's walking a little slow."
"Oh, is that so? Huanhuan?
Who is Huanhuan? "
Little Orange answered casually, but suddenly froze. Huanhuan, who was beside it, did not agree. It hissed in a low voice and said, "Please, I've already condescended to pull your cart, but you don't even know my name?"
Alas, this animal was just like a human. It had just left Songning Town and it was already tired of pulling carriages.
Little Orange finally understood that this animal's name was Huanhuan. If it was any other day, it would have jumped over to look at it. However, last night's incident seemed to be a catalyst that made her mature. He smiled and said, "Then I'll have to trouble your mount. When we go back, I'll find something it likes to eat as compensation."
Zhang Xiaohua heard this and said happily, "That's great. Huanhuan, aren't you going to thank Little Orange?"
Huanhuan shook its head and wagged its tail. It stuck out its big head and stuck out its big red tongue to lick Little Orange's face. Little Orange was scared and quickly hid. Huanhuan hissed in a low voice and said, "This girl doesn't give me any face."
Zhang Xiaohua saw this and laughed in her heart. She said, "Also, when I was looking for a carriage, I found a decent inn. I used the money you gave me to reserve a small courtyard. We can go there later."
Little Orange heard this and was very happy. He praised, "Ren Xiaoyao, you're so thoughtful. Miss will probably need to recuperate for a while. It won't do if she doesn't have a secluded courtyard."
"Ah?
What do you mean she needs to recuperate for a while? "
Zhang Xiaohua was a little surprised and disappointed.
Little Orange said curiously, "It takes a hundred days to recover from a serious injury. How can she not recuperate?"
She did not hold back and directly treated Zhang Xiaohua as one of her own. However, she did not think that Zhang Xiaohua had something to do.
"Then … okay." Zhang Xiaohua could only be speechless.
Then, he took out a package from the small carriage and threw it to Little Orange. He said, "You change first and then help your Miss change. If you need my help, I don't mind."
Little Orange was stunned. He reached out and took the package that was not heavy. When he opened it, he saw that it was some clothes that were not too shabby. She immediately understood what Zhang Xiaohua meant. She and her Miss were dressed in this luxurious carriage. If they were to sit in a small carriage, wouldn't it be more obvious?
It was better to change to a carriage.
In addition, she had just shown her face at the medical hall. If she did not change her clothes and was seen by others, they would know that she had just been to the medical hall. If an assassin came, he would definitely ask around and find out.
Why didn't she think of this?
Little Orange could not help but pat her forehead. Usually, she was the smart one in the manor. Otherwise, her Miss would not have brought her out. Why was it that in front of this Ren Xiaoyao, her cleverness disappeared?
With that thought in mind, she spat at Zhang Xiaohua and said, "You're self-reliant and have plenty of food and clothes."
After saying this, she turned around and entered the carriage. There was a rustling sound from inside. Not long after, a simple peasant girl appeared.
However, she encountered difficulties when she helped her Miss change her clothes. First, her Miss was unconscious and could not cooperate at all. Second, her wrists were fixed with splints and could not be moved carelessly.
Little Orange tried a few times, but in the end, she still could not help her Miss change her clothes. At this time, she could not help but grit her teeth and secretly said, "Sigh, I really have to ask him for help. This country boy is too lucky."
Little Orange raised her head from the carriage and said, "Ren Xiaoyao, that … can you come up and help?"
"Damn ~" Zhang Xiaohua almost fell down. Just now, she was just joking. Did he really need her help?
Although she did not know how the servants of the rich young masters served their Young Masters and Young Mistresses, but helping the Young Mistress change her clothes should be the most basic skill. Moreover, she heard that when the rich young masters were drunk, their servants would help them bathe and dress them. Just thinking about it made her drool. Was this Little Orange a fake? Did she not know how to dress people?
Of course, Zhang Xiaohua was not stupid enough to think that Little Orange wanted him to help her dress. Hehe.
However, Zhang Xiaohua was puzzled and was about to walk over. Little Orange frowned and shouted, "But, Ren Xiaoyao, you have to close your eyes."
"Close my eyes?
Then how can I help? "Zhang Xiaohua understood. This help was still very thought-provoking.
Very naturally, Zhang Xiaohua asked, "Does your Miss not wear underwear?"
"Bah," Little Orange glared and scolded, "You don't wear underwear.
Why are you talking nonsense? If someone else heard you, wouldn't it damage my Miss' reputation? "
"Even if I don't wear underwear, you won't know!" Zhang Xiaohua thought viciously.
"Even if she wears underwear, if a man like you sees it, my Miss' reputation will be ruined. So even if I ask for your help, you can't look." Little Orange explained.
"So troublesome, but … there's no one around, what are you afraid of?" Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile.
"Miss always told us that God is watching what we do. No matter what you do, you don't have to care if there's anyone around, or if anyone is looking. The most important thing is to stay true to your heart. It's best to have a clear conscience."
"Teng!" It was as if a spark had ignited something in Zhang Xiaohua's heart. At that moment, Zhang Xiaohua's state of mind was growing at a perceptible speed. That's right, when she saw Little Orange and the others being hunted down last night, Zhang Xiaohua felt extremely repulsed. If it wasn't for something in her heart, or if it wasn't for the fact that the bad guys left without killing anyone, Zhang Xiaohua might not have done anything. This was all because Zhang Xiaohua was afraid of getting into trouble and delaying her journey. But now, Little Orange's words reminded her. If she really didn't do anything last night, how could she face her own conscience?!
She was afraid that many times in the future, she would think about this matter and ask herself, "That night, why didn't I do anything?
I wonder what happened to those two pitiful girls in the end? "
"Sigh, luckily, I did do something last night, and I did my best." Zhang Xiaohua thought to himself with a smile.
At this moment, he felt that his cultivation that had been loosening up had improved again.
"What are you laughing at?
Forget it, you should just stay aside, I'll do it myself. "
Little Orange saw Zhang Xiaohua suddenly smile and thought that he had thought of something. She blushed and said angrily.
"Aiyo, Little Orange, you're saying that it's a misunderstanding."
Zhang Xiaohua realized that Little Orange had misunderstood and quickly explained, "I heard you say that your Miss was scolding you, and I thought of something that a friend of mine from the academy told me."
"Eh, is that true? Don't lie to me." Little Orange did not believe her at all.
"It's true. I once knew a scholar who loved to read books. He read a lot of miscellaneous journals, travelogues, supernatural novels, and so on. But one day, he suddenly wanted to write a book of his own. So he started writing excitedly. Who would have thought that after writing for almost ten months and writing 6.7 million words, not many people would read it? But he didn't know how to revise it or change to a new topic. So one day, I asked him, 'You've worked so hard for so long, but no one applauded you, so what's the point of doing so?'.
Can you guess what he said? "
"What did he say?
Could it be that he is as smart as my Miss?
How can you say something so philosophical? "
Zhang Xiaohua clapped and praised, "Yes, that's right. That scholar smiled and said, 'No matter what others think, I have kept my heart and wrote down the story that I wanted to tell. I feel that it does not lose to any book, and it is their loss if they don't read it.' See, isn't he as smart as your Miss?"
"That's true.
Such an amazing person, I wonder when I can meet him? "Little Orange looked forward to it.
Zhang Xiaohua looked into the distance, as if he had seen through endless time and space, and smiled, "You will, that day will come."
