Chapter 227 Tiger Xiao Huang
"Go wait for me outside!" Shang Ruoyi whispered, "I'll be back soon after I finish dealing with things here."
Cong Fangzhi pursed her lips, nodded, glanced at Zhao Zhili's family again, and turned and left.
When she reached the door, she paused and looked at Zhao Xinyin kneeling on the ground. She rolled her eyes a few times and then turned back. She said to Shang Ruoyi, "Sister-in-law, I think this girl is very clever and skillful. I still need a servant in my yard. How about giving her to me?"
Shang Ruoyi frowned. She knew what Zhao Xiyin was thinking, so she didn't want to keep her in the mansion, but Cong Fangzhi's request made her feel doubtful.
At this moment, Zhao Xiyin, who was kneeling on the ground, kowtowed hurriedly: "Thank you, my dear, thank you, my dear."
Cong Fangzhi smiled and helped her up: "From now on, you will come to my yard to serve me!"
"Yes."
Now, as long as I can stay here, it doesn’t matter which courtyard I live in.
Shang Ruoyi's gaze passed over Cong Fangzhi imperceptibly, and her heart sank slightly.
Zhao Zhiwen and his wife were about to ask her to let them stay when they heard Shang Ruoyi say, "I see you don't have any injuries, so I'll give you five taels of silver. Go back to Lord Zhang today and ask him to arrange a place for you to stay!" She said to the servant outside the door, "Go to the city defense office to find Lord Zhang and take the people away."
"Yes."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhiwen and his wife could not stay any longer and had to leave with the servants.
With five taels of silver, they could get through the winter safely.
Shang Ruoyi looked at Zhao Xinyin, who was looking happy, and said in a slightly cold voice: "Since you have caught the eye of the Third Young Master's wife, you should go to her courtyard and serve her well. Don't have any other thoughts. Otherwise, even if you are a distant relative of Lord Zhao, I will definitely not show you mercy."
Zhao Xiyin hurriedly saluted: "Yes, I understand."
Shaoyao looked at Shang Ruoyi's eyes and whispered, "Miss Zhao, please pay attention to your identity. You are a servant now. In front of the master, you should call yourself a slave."
Hearing her say this, an ugly look flashed across Zhao Xiyin's face, but how could she dare to say no now?
"Yes, I understand." After saying that, she gritted her teeth and secretly glared at Shaoyao.
Just wait for me. When I become the master, I will definitely make you suffer.
Zhao Xiyin lowered his eyes to hide the resentment in his eyes. Cong Fangzhi saw all this and her eyes flickered slightly.
Mrs. Huo stood at the end of the bed, looking at Shang Ruoyi's decisive and efficient style of doing things, and couldn't help but reveal a look of admiration.
"Although you look young, you are decisive in your actions. You are a role model for us."
"Mrs. Zhao, you are too kind." Shang Ruoyi took out the medicine from the medicine box and handed it to her: "Apply the medicine on time, I believe Lord Zhao will wake up soon." She also ordered someone to give him the spiritual spring water to drink.
When Shang Ruoyi took Zhao Zhili's pulse, she found that he was just exhausted and had some skin injuries. Fortunately, it was winter and the wounds were not easily infected, otherwise they would have festered, which would have been difficult to deal with.
"Thank you very much."
Back in the yard, He Yunyi walked in.
"sister in law."
Shang Ruoyi looked at her with a slightly cold expression.
Seeing this, He Yunyi pursed her lips in grievance: "Sister-in-law, are you angry?"
"No, it's fine, why would I be angry?" She poured herself a cup of steaming hot milk tea, and saw He Yunyi swallowing her saliva at the door from the corner of her eye, and said indifferently: "Tell me, why did you come to my place?"
"Sister-in-law, I was wrong. I shouldn't have rushed out without caring about anything that day. I won't dare to do that again." She moved in front of Shang Ruoyi, not daring to sit down. She stood aside and kept shaking her wrist: "Sister-in-law, I really know I was wrong. I was just worried about my third brother's safety that day and acted on impulse."
"Impulsive?" Shang Ruoyi interrupted her coldly: "Do you know how dangerous that day was? If that deputy general had ill intentions, you would have..."
Shang Ruoyi didn't say anything else, but patted her hard: "You have only learned the basics of martial arts. At most, you can deal with a petty thief. If you have more advanced martial arts, you are no match for him."
"What should I do?" He Yunyi sighed: "Brother taught me for a few days, but he just taught me to squat. I was exhausted every day, but I still didn't learn anything."
"After the New Year's Day, you will practice hidden weapons with me."
Shang Ruoyi had already thought about it. Martial arts cannot be acquired overnight, especially for someone like He Yunyi who started learning late in life and had long missed the best age to practice martial arts. However, spearmanship is not difficult. If you can practice your accuracy, it will be more practical than martial arts.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." She shook Shang Ruoyi's sleeves and her eyes fell on the cup of milk tea on the table: "Can I have a sip?"
Shang Ruoyi poured her a cup.
He Yunyi was afraid that she would go back on her word, so she quickly held the milk tea in her hands.
God knows how much she missed the taste of milk tea. She was almost going crazy craving it during the time she was recuperating at home.
As she sipped the wine, she heard Shang Ruoyi say, "From today on, I've found a partner who will protect you twelve hours a day."
partner?
Just when she was wondering, she saw Shang Ruoyi snap her fingers, and a slightly larger shadow slowly walked out from the curtain.
The milk tea cup in He Yunyi's hand fell to the ground instantly.
"Old, Tiger."
A tiger slowly walked up to Shang Ruoyi, rubbing its huge head against her hand affectionately. Shang Ruoyi patted its head and said softly, "From today on, you will protect her. If she loses even a hair, I will pluck all the hair off your body."
When the tiger heard this, human resentment appeared in his eyes.
Shang Ruoyi glared at her, and Lao Hu had no choice but to resign himself to his fate and walk to He Yunyi.
At this moment, He Yunyi's whole body was stiff. She did envy Shang Ruoyi for having a white tiger as a pet, but asking her to raise one herself was really a terrifying thing.
"sister in law."
"From today on, it belongs to you alone." Shang Ruoyi took out a basin filled with Lingquan books. Seeing this, the tiger quickly stepped forward and started drinking from it in big gulps. It looked at He Yunyi warily, fearing that she would snatch the books from it.
He Yunyi was speechless when she saw its defensive look. How could she be so hungry that she was fighting with a tiger for water?
“Give it a name!”
name?
He Yunyi thought for a moment and said, "My sister-in-law's tiger is called Xiaobai." She looked at the pattern on the tiger and smiled, "My sister-in-law's tiger is white, so it's called Xiaobai. Mine is yellow, so I'll call it Xiaohuang."
what?
Xiao Huang?
What the hell is that name?
The tiger stood up from the ground instantly, with its face drooping. After all, it was the overlord of the forest, but it was given the name of a puppy. Where did it put its face?
