Chapter 202 It’s really not about money(2/3)
When Ruyan heard this, she knew she had been discovered, so she pushed the door open and went in. She could go out alone. If she had help from the yamen, it would be quick.
When you get to the capital, all you have to do is turn your back and deny anyone.
"Sir, the little girl is Ruyan, a courtesan in the capital. I heard from my mother that you wanted to redeem me, so I came here to thank you."
I also have this idea. Before it was so fast, I already had one tael of silver in my hand that Fang Tangjing had tricked me today.
Bao Youwei stood behind Zhou Xiaoxing. Knowing that the latter was rich, he stopped pretending to be a big head. Zhou Xiaoxing deliberately reminded him before he came in with his head like smoke.
"It's not your lord, it's this young master, Zhou Xiaoxing. He wants to redeem you, and I'm just here to witness it."
The two were speechless. This was not the case when they heard it.
Zhou Xiaoxing just said it casually before. He didn't expect that Ruyan was really an oiran. Anyway, he still has money on hand. Anyway, the gambling shop will continue to give out money. Anyway, this girl is really pretty...
"Yes, I came here today just to find you. Master Bao asked me to help you. This money is enough for you to redeem yourself."
Several bags of money were given to Ruyan. Zhou Xiaoxing took Bao Youwei and went through the house. When he went out, he saw the lights in Chang Wei's room turned off and a beautifully dressed girl standing at the door waiting. He knew that he
The plan succeeded.
When passing by the beautiful girl, he gave me another bag of money and whispered: "Keep it as long as you want, thank you for your hard work."
It’s not hard, just give me money.
"Come from the other side?"
"You don't know."
"Is it Uncle Thirteen..."
Bao Youwei took half a step back, bending his body backwards. In the dark, he heard the girl's voice calling, but no one could be seen.
Ruyan stood at the door and was stunned for a few seconds. He quickly arrived at the madam's room, ran away and left in less than a minute.
Then, she wanted to see Mr. Zhou, but thinking that she would be in trouble if she didn't go back after being so patient, she packed up her luggage and left late at night with the remaining bag of money.
The capital is her home turf. Few of the men here listen to music, and they act anxious as soon as they come up, as if they have never seen a girl before.
When Zhou Xiaoxing arrived at Bao Mansion, she saw Mr. Bao and Granny Bao. They were sitting at the door watching the stars.
Seeing someone coming back, Grandma Bao stood up and when her hand touched Bao Youwei, she asked tentatively: "Is Thirteen back?"
"No, I am your grandson, grandma."
"Hey, do I have a grandchild?"
Grandma Bao didn't believe it. She walked to Zhou Xiaoxing and said with confidence: "This must be my daughter."
"No, Granny Bao, I am the scholar who stayed in your house yesterday."
"Ah, is there such a thing?"
Grandma Bao turned sideways and saw another person sitting on a wicker chair. He slowly squatted down and his face moved slightly.
"Scholar, have you eaten?"
"I am your husband."
"Ah?"
Grandma Bao immediately retracted her extended hand. Her memory was getting worse every day. She silently turned around and entered the house, earning as much money as flowers.
"Thirteen, are you back?"
"No, I am Ruhua, madam."
Mr. Bao sighed and said sheepishly: "Don't be offended, this is what happens when you get old. I'll help her in."
Bao Youwei was used to being like a flower, so he didn't say anything. I wonder if it was because my grandfather did a lot of bad things during his time as an official.
"Master Zhou, you are back. I can already write the article silently. What delicious food did you bring me?"
Ruhua arrived in front of Zhou Xiaoxing in a few steps, blinking her eyes, waiting for the latter to take something out of his arms.
Forgot, Bao Youwei happened to be by his side, so he just took the blame.
"I originally brought horse-drawn cakes, but Master Bao took me to Qing...school and forgot to bring them."
When Bao Youwei heard the word "green", he waved desperately to Zhou Xiaoxing. When the latter finished speaking, he breathed a sigh of relief.
You can talk about brothels casually, not because you are worried about Ruhua being a woman, but in Bao Mansion, brothels cannot be mentioned.
"Ruhua, I'll make it up to you next time. Come quickly, grandma is calling you."
Ruhua's frowned brows relaxed reluctantly, and she knew that Zhou Xiaoxing had not forgotten this matter, and that Youwei's actions were getting more and more ridiculous.
After seeing Ruhua cooing away, Bao Youwei followed Zhou Xiaoxing into his room and was amazed when he saw Ruhua's handwriting on the table.
Can this be called a word?
It's clearly a ghost painting.
Zhou Xiaoxing also thought so. He immediately gave up the idea of letting Ruhua take the exam. It was better to go by himself. It would be better than handing in a blank paper.
"Master Bao, if something happens, your room is over there."
Zhou Xiaoxing ignored the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table and walked to the bed to go to bed. As soon as he sat down, he faintly noticed that the system was responding.
"Mr. Zhou, is it about the exam?"
"I'll go."
That's good. He thought he would replace it with Ruhua, but when he heard Zhou Xiaoxing say this, he felt relieved.
After saving the oiran, he barely spoke to her. I wonder if the latter understood what he meant.

After closing the door of Zhou Xiaoxing's room, Bao Youwei immediately turned off the lights when he saw the latter, and Bao Youwei walked away with his hands behind his back.
Soon, Zhou Xiaoxing turned on the light again, tilted his head slightly, and the system interface appeared.
"Congratulations on your successful time travel. The power of your right hand has been restored."
"If you want to return successfully, you need to complete two tasks."
"Task 1: Help Qi Qin's family reverse the case."
"Task 2: Help Bao Longxing become a good official."
The first task is nothing. At present, Qin Xiaolian has not married into the Qi family, as long as Chang Wei is controlled before then.
If an unfortunate murder happened, and he followed Bao Longxing to the capital to file a petition, or if he obtained a meritorious title, became an official himself, and told the truth when he met the emperor, Qi Qin's case could still be vindicated.
.
Zhou Xiaoxing can’t tell which one is more difficult, so he won’t judge it yet.
In fact, it’s best to take preventive measures before they happen.
For the second task, Zhou Xiaoxing closed his eyes. It was too difficult. Today in the courtroom, Bao Longxing held the key evidence. He was played around by Fang Tangjing, and three thousand taels turned into one tael of silver. He said
He may be bad, but not completely bad. Call him a good official, but he can’t even try the case well.
It is the hardest for people like this to change for the better.
Blow out the candle in one breath and fall asleep.
When he woke up again, it was already the evening of the next day. He was awakened by Ruhua, who asked him to go and eat the Qi family's wedding banquet.
"Tsk, what does this have to do with me."
The moment he covered himself with quilt and continued sleeping, Zhou Xiaoxing turned over and sat up.
"What do you want to say first?"
"I asked you to go have a wedding banquet. The young master of the Qi family is marrying a wife. I don't know what that woman is thinking. She is so good-looking, but she must have a consumptive man. I heard... Hey, you go to the side pocket.
?"
Before Ruhua's gossip was revealed, Zhou Xiaoxing had already put on her clothes and ran out of the house.
"If you don't like to hear gossip, just speak out and leave."
Ruhua picked up the pen and continued yesterday's homework. Although he didn't recognize these words, it was fun to write them.
In less than an hour, Zhou Xiaoxing arrived at the door of Qi's house. When he walked in, he didn't care to admire the decoration inside and outside the house. He looked for the shadow of Changwei in the crowd. After several rounds, he didn't see it.
When I was free and picked up a glass of wine, I saw Qin Xiaolian coming out in a red bridal dress from a distance, smiling beautifully, looking forward and swaying, so beautiful.
It is said that the most beautiful day for a woman is the day she puts on her bridal gown. When he saw her today, Zhou Xiaoxing was convinced. For a moment, he almost thought Meng Luo was walking towards him in ancient costume.
"Do you think the consumptive man will die tonight?"
The question mark behind him expressed what Zhou Xiaoxing was thinking at the moment. When he looked back, he saw Bao Longxing, who was looking at Qin Xiaolian in a daze.
"Why, Mr. Bao is here to drink too?"
"As a local parent official, this kind of situation is unavoidable."
Bao Longxing smiled helplessly. Before, when he went out on the street, everyone yelled at him, but now he was invited as a guest.
"Welcome to the street" seems to have never happened. Life is like a wine jar. When you open it, you don't know whether the wine inside is good or bad.
