Chapter 23 Embarrassment(1/2)
The golden toad respectfully lay outside an inconspicuous frame and bowed to the inside.
"Master, Jin Gong has arrived." A maid stood beside him and said loudly.
"Jin Gong, why are we in a small village?" A woman's voice came from the car, and she seemed very unhappy. "Didn't you say you can get to Fengxiang today?"
"If you want to say the female master, this..." The golden toad's head was sweating profusely, and he turned his eyes and looked at the female maid beside him.
The maid turned around in time and pretended not to see it.
"What, you said," the woman scolded in the car.
"This..." The golden toad swallowed, and the Adam's apple rolled on his neck with difficulty. "I saw the female young master sleeping soundly in the daytime, so I deliberately slowed down the speed of the convoy..."
"But I'll stay for one night today, and I'll arrive at Fengxiang at noon tomorrow!" Jin Toad said loudly, but his tone was still a little weak.
"Did you mean my fault?" Before he finished speaking, the curtain of the front frame was suddenly pulled open. This was the female child in the mouth of the golden toad.
He looked like he was not old last year, with starry and moon eyebrows, high hairpin red lips, bright eyes and white teeth, but his eyes were filled with anger and his willow eyebrows were frowning.
"I don't dare! I have no intention of this." Seeing this, the Golden Toad immediately buried his head and shouted that he didn't dare. "It's my subordinate who made his own decision!"
"Xiaobi said you also let a stranger walk with you!" The girl seemed not satisfied with the golden toad's voyeurism.
When the maid saw that her master was about to get off the car, she reached out to help her. Unexpectedly, the girl ignored her and jumped out of the car and stood in front of the golden toad: "I want to tell my father that you can transfer you to the stable to feed the horses!"
My little ancestor!
The golden toad cried in his heart, but his face raised his head with a smile, his eyes bent into a crack, and he said to the girl flatteringly: "My lady, I see that the scholar is quite talented and knowledgeable. I thought I could serve the emperor. I didn't invite him to come at will."
"Really? Can he help Daddy?" The girl's brows stretched slightly, her eyes turned sharply, and then said, "Hmph! I'm not easy to cheat."
"It's true! The female princess, Xie Shizi is handsome, knows astronomy and geography, is well-versed in history, and is proficient in history, and is easy to use. He is good at being a good soldier and a general of martial arts. He is really talented and knowledgeable!" Jin Toad raised his head, patted his chest and said to the girl. "The female princess doesn't believe what I said to Jin Gong? Jin Gong has never deceived the female princess."
"That's right, let you go for this matter." The girl tilted her head and thought for a while, then said, "Well, then I'll ask you, where are we living today? Wouldn't we set up a tent in the wilderness again?"
"I originally wanted the lady to stay in the village inn..." When Jin Toad heard this, he started to start from his head with cold sweat and incompetent attitude.
But before he could finish speaking, the girl interrupted him.
"Living in the inn? I can't live! It's all smelly of sweat!" The girl frowned, feeling pity for everyone. "Can you care more about doing things? I want my dad to transfer you to the stable to feed the horses!"
"Girl...this..." Jin Toad didn't dare to continue talking. If the little ancestor knew that he had set up a tent again, he would definitely go to feed the horses.
"Master, what Jin Wei said was originally." The maid named Xiao Bi suddenly spoke and looked at the golden toad kneeling on the ground cunningly.
It's over!
Golden Toad widened his eyes and thought to himself that Xiaobi was going to frame him again.
Didn’t it just that I accidentally saw you taking a shower while fetching water? It wasn’t intentional, what a grudge!
"But the inn is full, and he set up a tent for you today." Sure enough, Xiao Bi still said it!
"What!" The girl felt wronged when she heard that she wanted to live in the wilderness again.
I must let my dad transfer him to the stable!
Seeing that the situation was not good, the golden toad flashed a flash of inspiration, and he yelled loudly:
"No! The female master, how can I bear to let the female master suffer from the bite of the mosquito!" The golden toad turned around and pointed to the high-walled courtyard behind him. "It took me more than half a dozen of tigers to convince the elders in the village to let them free up a courtyard for us to rest."
Fortunately, I didn’t tell Xiaobi that this is a haunted house, and fortunately I said hello to my brothers and don’t tell me about this. Humph, Xiao Nizi still wants to fight with me?
The golden toad was relieved and boasted about his urgent wisdom.
The girl looked at the house in the direction he pointed.
She had actually noticed it a long time ago because the house was so big, but she didn't expect that the golden toad would have some skills, so she had no hope at all.
"It's just... the house has been vacant for a long time, and it's still a little dusty, but my subordinates have sent someone to clean it up." Although the Golden Toad was scared, he still had to look good on the surface.
"Take it seriously?" The girl looked at the Golden Toad suspiciously. She still couldn't believe it and confirmed again. "You haven't bullied others?"
"Take it seriously! I, Jin Gong, is a hero! How can I do things for the people!" Jin Toad looked righteous and honest, and it was a cry of silent men and women.
"Okay." The girl looked up at the drooping plaque, then looked at the swearing golden toad. "I won't tell my father."
It's so dangerous, I almost become a groom.
But before the golden toad could recover from the surging spiritual world, the girl walked straight to the mansion and ignored the golden toad anymore.
"Girl, what are you doing?" The Golden Toad was a little panicked and wanted to call the girl.
"Go and pick a room!" The girl turned around, tilted her head, and looked at the Golden Toad in confusion. "Otherwise, what else do you do?"
It's going to break up again. With the temper of the young lady, she must have lived in the largest ancestral hall! But Xie Shizi is still inside!
"Girl, my subordinates have asked someone to organize your room for you... don't have to look for it anymore, right?" Jin Toad asked tentatively.
"No." The girl shook her head and replied. "I'm not at all relieved to the room you chose."
It's really ruthless, Golden Toad has a headache.
The girl didn't care about him anymore and turned around and stepped into the door.
"Wait for me!" The golden toad got up and caught up with the girl's pace.
......
"Girl, this house is quiet and elegant. We are a rough man, and we can't help but make a little noise at night. Only when we live here can we calm down..."
"This is great! This one is close to the main courtyard!"
"This room is even more! There is a small slope behind it, and you can see the mountains and rivers!"
The golden toad walked beside the girl, constantly praising and recommending the house to her, and tried his best to stop the girl from walking, but the girl kept shaking her head and was not satisfied.
The golden toad took out his handkerchief and kept wiping the sweat on his body. Who can understand the bitterness in his heart?
The two walked through the outer courtyard and passed through the inner hall to the inner courtyard.
The golden toad was still talking nonstop, but his eyes had already glanced at the ancestral hall, and he was secretly yelling in his heart.
The girl's eyes lit up, and she pointed to the ancestral hall and said to the golden toad, "This room, I want to live in this room."
"This..." Golden Toad didn't know how to answer.
"What's this?" The girl was very dissatisfied. "What's wrong with you today? You always stammer? Do you want to feed the horses?"
"No..." The golden toad was silent for a while.
"Then Xie Shizi is resting in the room..." Jin Toad thought to himself that this little ancestor was very clever, so it would be better to tell the truth.
"Ah?" The girl widened her phoenix eyes, and her anger came up. "You actually gave my room to someone else!"
My little ancestor, I came first.
"Xie Shizi chose this house as soon as he arrived here." Jin Toad explained to the girl helplessly. "Besides, this is a ancestral hall. Although it has been abandoned for a long time, it was once a ancestor who had worshipped other people's families... It is better not to offend the girl."
"I don't care!" The girl raised her mouth, which was a little aggrieved. "Why can't I live? Dad cares about me, you still have to care about me?"
"Please forgive me, the female master. Jin Gong did something wrong." Jin Toad took a deep breath and said helplessly. "If the female master really wants this ancestral hall, I, Jin Gong, will discuss the truth with Xie Shizi with this perfect tongue and make him give it to the female master with convincing conscience?"
"I don't care about you anymore!" the girl refused. "You are like dad, you will only swear by me, but in the end you will tell me no!"
The fog filled the girl's eyes, and the golden toad knew that the girl thought of her father because of herself.
The golden toad looked at the girl's aggrieved expression and said to himself: Master, I have been plagued by my family affairs.
Just as I was about to step forward to comfort the girl, I saw that she had already trotted to the ancestral hall.
"I want to see who is going to compete for the room with me!" The girl shouted and kicked open the door of the ancestral hall, and the moonlight spread into the room.
There is no time to stop it!
Xu Xiaozhang turned around suddenly, and Xie Yu was also startled by the sudden kicking door.
The two of them stared at the girl blankly.
The girl also stared at the two men with strange postures... Xu Xiaozhang was squatting beside Xie Yu, preparing to stab him with a needle.
The three of them looked at each other with all their eyes, looking at me, and I looked at you, all at a loss.
Awkward!
The first person to come to his senses was Xu Xiaozhang. He stood up and grabbed the girl's hand, pulled him into the room, then took a step forward, and closed the door.
The girl came to her senses after being pulled, and opened her mouth and wanted to call the golden toad outside the door, but her mouth was immediately blocked by Xu Xiaozhang from behind him, and she could only make a whimpering sound.
"Don't shout!" Xu Xiaozhang was also anxious about this sudden situation and could not help but speak harshly. "If you call again, you will kill you."
The girl did not shut up when she heard this. Instead, she became more powerful. She used her limbs to hit Xu Xiaozhang behind her, and happened to hit his injured waist.
Xu Xiaozhang felt pain, and in desperation, he hit the girl's neck with a knife.
The girl only felt the darkness in front of her eyes, and she fainted as soon as she closed her eyes.
"Girl! Girl!" The Golden Toad trotted to the door, but he saw that the door had been closed, but he did not dare to rush in and could only call the girl from outside.
No one responded.
Xu Xiaozhang frowned, turned his head to Xie Yu, who was lying on the ground, pointed to the fainting girl, and then made another move to wipe her throat.
Xie Yu finally recovered.
