After returning home, Zhong Li asked the maid to divide the cherries and watermelons into three parts and send them to Zhongfu, Zhenbeihoufu, and Fuyoutang respectively.

She thought of Pei Xing again, she took out the 20,000 taels of silver that she had collected from him before, and then called Luo Yu to her.

Zhong Li pushed the silver note to her, and said sternly: "This is the money that the third uncle gave me before. I don't have any money. Please help me return it to him, and you don't have to protect me in the future."

Zhong Li took out an extra jade pendant of excellent condition, handed it to Luo Yu, and said with a smile: "In recent months, I have worked for you, because of you, every time I go out, I am less worried, and I don't know. , what do you like, I chose a jade pendant for you."

A hint of surprise flashed in Luo Yu's eyes, and she quickly declined, but Zhong Li insisted, she personally hung it on her waist, and said with a smile, "This jade pendant suits your temperament very well, just accept it, you don't have to follow me. polite."

Luo Yu's heart was warm, and she didn't refuse anymore. She glanced at the jade pendant and said, "Thank you, Miss Zhong for the reward. But I'm sorry that I can't return your master's money for you. My subordinate's order is to guard you, and you don't have a master. Order, I can no longer leave my post without permission."

Zhong Li had no choice but to put away the bank note and said, "Okay, I'll let Qiuyue give it to him, I'm done with him, you don't have to protect me anymore, he should give you new tasks in the future, you've worked hard during this time. already."

Luo Yu shook her head. When she came over, Pei Xing had said that she wanted to protect her well. She did not choose to leave because of Zhong Li's words. Although she was a little surprised, why did they end? Luo Yu thought that they might not necessarily be. It can be over. After all, it was the first time in these years that she saw her master and had a crush on someone.

After she stepped back, Zhong Li called Qiuyue over, "You can go back to Zhenbeihou's mansion at night, you don't have to enter the mansion. When you meet the third uncle, return the silver note to him."

Qiuyue was a little surprised, "Master and third master..."

Zhong Li nodded and said solemnly: "He won't come here again in the future, please return the silver note to him."

Zhong Li kept the jewelry and clothes. If they returned the two, he might feel like he would be slapped in the face.

The 20,000 taels of silver was a lot, so she naturally couldn't accept it.

Qiuyue looked at her without a word.

Afraid that she would try to persuade her again, Zhong Li raised her index finger and hissed, "Don't talk about this topic. In the past few days, you have taught the maids more and ensure that each of them learns how to make this antidote."

The detox pills taught by Zhong Li can detoxify four kinds of poisons, and a bottle can be sold for ten taels of silver. In the future, Fuyoutang's daily expenses can be completely relied on by them.

Qiuyue couldn't ask any more questions, she had to put on the money and leave the mansion. Fearing that she would encounter robbers, she also deliberately sought out two guards to come out of the mansion with her.

After she retreated, Zhong Li called Qing Ye over again, planning to ask him to find some good guards. If they went to Jiangnan, it would take three months on a single trip, and the journey was far away, so they needed to bring more skills. OK

Fortunately, she still had some money on hand.

Qiuyue didn't come back until evening, saying that the third master didn't return to Zhenbei Hou's mansion, and Zhong Li was not able to inquire about his whereabouts, so she sent a little maid to guard Zhenbei's mansion, and planned to wait until he returned to the mansion. Ask Qiuyue to return the silver.

Unexpectedly, Pei Xing didn't go back to Zhenbeihou's mansion until Cheng'er's birthday, and he didn't know where he lived. This matter was not easy to drag on. Zhong Li simply asked Qiuyue to go to Beizhen Fusi. He was always there. Work here, go here to guard, you will definitely meet him.

She devoted herself to celebrating Cheng'er's birthday. She cooked herself and cooked a bowl of longevity noodles for Cheng'er. The old lady, Zhenbei Hou, the second wife and others also asked the maid to give Cheng'er a birthday present.

Even Li Mingqian and Zheng Feiling gave him gifts. The little guy was extremely happy. He was the happiest when he opened the gifts. Every time he opened one, he would say "wow" in surprise. Zhong Li looked at him with a smile, and couldn't help bending his lips.

What she gave Cheng’er was a wishing card. Cheng’er could make three wishes to her, and she would help him make them come true. The little guy didn’t realize how valuable this gift was. The first wish was to care what she wanted. He ordered three strings of candied haws, one for each of him, Xiaoxiang and Koizumi.

Zhong Li couldn't help laughing and shook her head, and asked the maid to buy him three strings, and the remaining two Cheng'er had not yet thought about it, so Zhong Li asked him to owe it first, and when he coaxed him to take a lunch break, Zhong Li brought up the matter of going to Jiangnan, " Does Cheng'er want to leave the capital?"

Cheng'er blinked, her eyes lit up instantly, "Are you going to Zhuangzi?"

"No, it's going to a place more beautiful than Zhuangzi, with small bridges, flowing water, and many beautiful flowers. It's a very beautiful city."

Cheng'er tilted her head, "Sister, do you want to go?"

Zhong Li nodded with a smile.

Cheng'er rubbed into her arms and yawned a little, "I'll go when my sister goes, and I won't go if my sister doesn't go. Cheng'er only follows my sister, and my sister will take Cheng'er wherever she goes."

These words made Zhong Li feel sour and astringent. She smiled and patted his back, "Go to sleep, my sister will take Cheng'er wherever she goes."

The reason why Zhong Li wanted to take him to Jiangnan was not only because his mother liked Jiangnan, but also because Shenyi Xue's hometown was also in Jiangnan. Over the years, Shenlong Xue had never seen the end, and no one could find him.

His deceased parents were all in Jiangnan. Zhong Li felt that he should go to the tomb, so he wanted to go to Jiangnan to try. If he could really find him, it would undoubtedly be a great thing for Cheng'er.

Here, Qiuyue finally saw Qin Xing, she handed the silver note to Qin Xing, but Qin Xing refused to accept it, "Miss Qiuyue, please take it back, please convey to Miss Zhong, that is, three heads for her subordinates, The subordinates also dare not accept the money, if she really wants to return it, she will return it herself."

In the past few days, Pei Xing's face has been cold every day, and Qin Xing's heart has been up and down, and he has been serving thousands of times more carefully than usual. Accepting the money, based on what he knew about Pei Xing, he said that he couldn't kill him alive.
