Chapter 379 Thanks to You

Chapter 379 Thanks to You
After a while, the shopkeeper came out with a bunch of things, and put them all on the stage. Among them was a Duan inkstone, which was said to be exactly what Shen Chongguang wanted.

"It's all what Lord He Lan wants, please have a look at it, Lord Huo." The shopkeeper handed the Duan inkstone to Shen Yan, and then pointed out another pile to Huo Jiu.

Of course, Shen Chongguang didn't leave anything behind.

Huo Jiu's intention was to let him find some excuses, but one of them is a well-known prison supervisor, and the other is a newly promoted Miss Ge Laofu, what is it to them?
This small gift should be regarded as a little sympathy from their Baoxiang.

Master Huo glanced twice, and said to Miss Shen: "Since you happen to be here, then help me palm my eyes."

Shen Yan said in a muffled voice: "Master He Lan is a regular customer here, and Baoxiang is not an ordinary shop, so there is no problem."

These words came comfortably, and the shopkeeper immediately burst into laughter from the side.

"That's not certain." Huo Jiu said indifferently, "Didn't you leave your things just now?

"Besides, He Lan is extremely picky. He won't take even the slightest bit of crumpled paper. If something goes wrong, I'll have to go back to him later."

Is the gentle and kind He Lanzhun so difficult to serve?Shen Yan didn't believe it.

"Help me." He put his arm on the armrest and raised his hand.

It wasn't an important matter, and Shen Yan didn't bother to mess with him.

Here I took the list that He Lanzhun had left behind, and then confronted him in the same way.

Huo Jiu looked at her with half-closed eyes.

Shen Xi was 16 years old, she was no more than fifteen years old, she was so short, even when she was sitting she was only as tall as his nose.

He's quite a bit stubborn, seeing him as a big acquaintance who doesn't even give him the face to stay for a bite of tea, and refuses to call him brother, well, he is a rabbit with only a little temper.

"After reading it, it's all right."

While thinking about it, Rabbit—ah no, Shen Yan pushed the list over sullenly.

"It's really thanks to you." Huo Jiu put the list into his arms, then got up and said, "Let's go."

Shen Yan subconsciously said, "Where are you going?"

"I invite you to drink tea."

Shen Yan opened her mouth: "No."

Huo Jiu turned to face her, with a righteous look on his brows: "I don't like to owe people favors the most. Either you don't help me just now, since you helped me, I can't owe this favor."

Shen Yan was speechless!

Didn't he force her to help just now?This can't be pushed away!

The shopkeeper and the guys at the side stared blankly for a long time, and at this time also said: "Miss Shen is a relative of the palace, and it is fate to meet you here.

"The 'Shuxiang Pavilion' opposite is a good place to drink tea. I heard that a new batch of new tea from the South has just arrived in the morning. The younger ones don't have time to try it. Girls must not miss it."

Shen Yan pursed her lips and looked at Huo Jiu, then went out.

Blindly refusing, others also said that she had some prejudice against the people in the palace.

Seeing her go out, Huo Jiu took another bank note to the shopkeeper and paid for the inkstone just now.

Shen Yan stepped out here, just as she got into the car, Suxiang, the maid who came in later, suddenly poked her head out to have a look again.

Then he said "huh": "The person opposite seems to be a female teacher who was only hired in our study. Where is she going?"

When Shen Yan heard this, she suddenly remembered what Shen Xi had told her to get the two female teachers fired before she went out.

Then he opened the curtain and saw that the woman who was talking with someone was indeed one of the female teachers in the study.

The person walking with her was also a woman, and the two of them were talking, but they didn't seem to be very familiar with each other.

"Who is that person?"

Counting the time, since she ordered the message to now, the female teachers should have received the signal, but they haven't left immediately.

How could she still think about going out at this time?
She looked at the school building diagonally opposite, and suddenly got out of the carriage again.

At this time, the children had already finished school, and there should only be a few sweeping women and the two female teachers in the dormitory.

"What are you looking at?" Huo Jiu came to her side.

"Can you bring that woman here for me? I'll ask her a few words, but don't let anyone know that we did it." Chen Yan looked at him.

He glanced at her, slightly raised his arm and snapped his fingers, and the guard beside him disappeared like a phantom.

Immediately afterwards, he changed his clothes and walked out from the opposite alley, and went up to meet the female teacher.

Not knowing what to say, the female teacher said goodbye to the woman who was traveling with her, and then went to the alley ahead.

Huo Jiu said coolly: "Come with me."

Shen Yan followed him into a small teahouse nearby, and soon the previous guards brought the female teacher in.

Seeing that it was Shen Yan sitting at the table, the female teacher was stunned for a moment, and then immediately saluted: "Miss Yan."

Shen Yan kept her tone normal: "Mr. Lin, have you received the money I sent you?"

"Received." Although Ms. Lin was dismissed, she was disappointed, but she was more grateful, "20 taels of silver is too much, and the concubines feel uneasy."

"Suddenly dismissing the two of you and giving some compensation is what should be done." Shen Yan said softly.

Then she asked her again: "Where are you going just now? I don't think you are very familiar with the woman who is traveling with you?"

Shen Xi's signal to fire her came suddenly, and since she was not familiar with her, she followed her out at this time, so she should be careful.

"The woman came to the bookstore to inquire about the admission of students.

"I heard that we were leaving, and that I could introduce my concubine to an errand. I saw that she didn't look like a mess outside, so I agreed to meet their master." Ms. Lin said honestly.

Shen Yan frowned, since she came to inquire about recruiting students, how could she still have an errand to introduce?
She looked at her suspiciously, but her eyes were clear and slightly dazed, as if she didn't understand.

After thinking for a while, she stood up: "I don't have anything else to do, since you have found an errand, that's fine. I won't delay you."

Miss Lin bowed slightly apologetically, and exited the door.

Shen Yan suddenly took another two steps and said, "Mr. Lin, can you promise me something?"

"Girl, please tell me!" Ms. Lin turned her head.

"Go there later, don't say you've seen me," she said.

Ms. Lin paused for a moment, nodded her head: "This concubine will definitely not talk too much."

Shen Yan nodded and watched her go out.

Huo Jiu was eating tea next door, and there was a plate of peanuts on the table, which he almost finished.

Shen Yan walked in, cleared her throat and said, "Master Huo, I can't have tea with you today, I have something to do."

Huo Jiu chewed peanuts and looked at her: "Going to follow?"

Shen Yan was overwhelmed and blushed. "no--"

Huo Jiu walked up to her slowly, put his hands on his waist, and stared at her leisurely: "You call people here, and then let them go, the key is that you don't know who she is going to meet.

"If it wasn't for following up, then I really have to wonder where did you get the confidence to confront Han Ning and Shi Zhen at the side of the green lake that day."

Shen Yan had no choice but to spread her hands and said, "Since you have seen it, then I will take my leave."
