Chapter 443
Yun Jin naturally saw Er Ya's appearance.
"Open your mouth, let me see if you've burned yourself."
Yun Jin said somewhat reproachfully.
When Er Ya heard this, she opened her mouth and stuck out her tongue, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Not bad, you're quite tough."
Yun Jin rolled her eyes.
Er Ya smiled sheepishly when she heard this.
Shen Qing, on the other hand, looked at Er Ya with a face full of apology.
"It's my fault too. I forgot to tell you that this is all hot tea and you shouldn't drink it so quickly."
Shen Qing had been used to living like a young lady since childhood and thought these were common sense, so she told Er Ya. In fact, not only Shen Qing, but Yun Jin also overlooked this issue.
"Er Ya, tell me, where did your family first encounter the weighing instrument?"
Shen Qing looked at Er Ya and asked.
She had been worried about Zhou Chu, but when she found out he was alright, she was relieved. Now that she knew it was Er Ya's family who saved Zhou Chu, Shen Qing naturally wanted to know what had happened.
"what?"
Er Ya was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then rolled her eyes and began to think back.
"I remember it was almost dark when my brother came back with a horse. On the horse was Chu Ge'er. Chu Ge'er was terrifying back then. He was covered in blood, and his armor was covered in blood clots."
Er Ya gestured as she spoke.
Upon hearing this, Shen Qing felt an immense pang of heartache. She could imagine that Zhou Chu must have been on the verge of death at that moment.
“My father told me to go and call my third grandfather, who was the village doctor. After I called him over, he took off Chu Ge’er’s armor and applied herbal medicine all over his body. He said that whether Chu Ge’er could get better depended entirely on himself; if he could pull through, he would be fine.”
Although Er Ya is young, children from poor families mature early, and her communication skills are quite good.
"Chu-ge'er woke up the next day and gradually got better."
Upon hearing this, Shen Qing subtly wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, then took off a pure gold bracelet from her wrist and slipped it onto Er Ya's right hand.
"It's our first time meeting, and I don't know what to give you. This bracelet is a nice little thing, and oh, and this too."
As Shen Qing spoke, he took down a jade pendant from the shelf next to him. This jade pendant looked very valuable, and Shen Qing put it around Er Ya's neck.
Er Ya looked at the gold bracelet on her wrist and the jade pendant around her neck, and looked at Yun Jin helplessly, as if waiting for Yun Jin to tell her what to do.
"Sister Shen gave this to you, so please accept it. She's rich, very rich."
Yun Jin patted Er Ya's head and smiled.
Upon hearing this, Er Ya immediately lost her previous unease. She was never one to feign politeness. Although she didn't know how valuable the gold bracelet or jade pendant was, children always love pretty gifts and naturally didn't want to return them. Hearing this, she was overjoyed.
On the other side, Dazhu followed Shen Lian to the Jinyiwei headquarters. Looking at the somewhat gloomy environment of the Jinyiwei headquarters and the serious-looking Jinyiwei guards around him, Dazhu felt a chill run down his spine. When had he ever seen such a scene?
"Don't be afraid. Lord Zhou is the boss here. Everyone has to listen to him. No one dares to offend you."
Shen Lian couldn't help but chuckle as he looked at Da Zhu's expression.
Upon hearing this, Dazhu breathed a sigh of relief. Only then did Dazhu realize just how much power Chu Ge'er wielded.
Previously in Zhangjia Village, Zhou Chu deliberately avoided Dazhu and Erya when handling many matters. Even though the Xuanwu Army was stationed outside Zhangjia Village, Dazhu didn't really feel anything. But now, looking at the extremely strict Jinyiwei, Dazhu directly felt Zhou Chu's power.
"Master Shen."
A Jinyiwei commander greeted Shen Lian with a respectful expression.
