After Ye Xueyun finished speaking, she got on the carriage angrily and urged the coachman to set off immediately and leave. Seeing this, the two entourages of the Zhongdujian Office had to hurriedly salute Liu Ruiying, and then quickly chased after him.

The two of them felt that since they happened to meet Liu Shengqi here, someone could deal with their own sins. Moreover, they could see that Liu Ruiying and the Ou family's Jianxin should be very familiar with Ou Xiao'e.

After Ye Xueyun and his party left, Liu Ruiying sighed, turned to look at Ou Xiao'e and said:

"What annoyed you and a little girl? You can see that you have never left the house and are still ignorant."

The fight between women made Liu Ruiying feel deeply impressed, and he secretly thanked that Zhao Mingming never quarreled with others over trivial matters, otherwise how would he live that life if he encountered many things in the future.

"You are worried that she will complain to your Lord Master Zhangsi when she goes back, and then make it difficult for you to have a hard time."

Ou Xiao'e said coldly.

The straightforward personality has not changed at all.

Liu Ruiying touched his nose awkwardly, and he could not deny that he had such an idea. However, Master Wei Qilin, the chief officer of the Zhongdu Stock Exchange, is said to have always been selfless and obedient. He should not do anything extreme because of his niece's complaint. But this is just Liu Ruiying's wishful thinking. After all, he has never met this Chief Vice President, and no one knows what the result will be before the incident happens.

On the contrary, Ou Xiaoe was not worried at all.

The extra Ou Family Sword in her hand was the bet she made when she and Ye Xueyun were betting, and it could be considered as a dignified person. In addition, as the Ou Family Sword Heart sign, no one in the entire Zhongdu City would make things difficult for her. The whole family of the world is always closely related to the five kingdoms, and no one will treat this very carefully.

Identity is called emptiness, but it is still very useful when it is real.

"How can I get so much sugar-fried chestnuts back?"

The candy-fried chestnuts squatted in front of the cloth bag and had already eaten the empty shells on the ground.

Liu Ruiying rubbed his temples, and he asked Huanong to hire a carriage on the street and sent all the candy and fried chestnuts back to Xiangteng Inn. He also asked him to tell Deng Pengfei, Bi Xiangyu, Zhao Mingming and others that he had some urgent matters and would not go back to have supper with them, but he had to rush back to Zhongdu Inspection and Inspection Department immediately.

After arranging these, Liu Ruiying walked to Ou Xiao'e and stretched out his right hand.

"What's the meaning?"

Ou Xiao'e asked in confusion.

"You are angry, just give me the sword?"

Liu Ruiying said.

He wanted to get Ye Xueyun's sword back from Ou Xiao'e, so that even if there is something wrong after returning to Zhongdu Inspection and Inspection Service, he would be able to mediate from it, at least have an explanation.

"This is the bet I have won. If you want to be honest, you have to have an explanation!"

Ou Xiao'e said.

"What do you want to say?"

Liu Ruiying put down his arm and said helplessly.

"I didn't think about it."

Ou Xiao'e bit her lip, pondered for a while and said.

"You can think about it slowly, but I'm very anxious here!"

Liu Ruiying said with a wry smile.

Suddenly a black shadow flashed in front of my eyes.

It was Ou Xiao'e who threw Ye Xueyun's sword over.

"I'll come out and tell you again. You can go and make that little ancestor happy first!"

Ou Xiao'e said.

Just as Huanong also led the carriage to the entrance of the alley, and he and the coachman put all the 100 kilograms of fried chestnuts onto the car. Ou Xiao'e patted the arm of the candy chestnuts and signaled her to lead her to return to Xiangteng Inn.

Seeing the two of them instantly getting better like sisters, Liu Ruiying couldn't help but sigh that the friendship between this woman came so inexplicably. The mere sugar-fried chestnut actually made Ou Jia Jianxin develop a very sincere affection for sugar-fried chestnuts. If this matter was on the two men, it might be a completely different ending.

"It makes you laugh!"

Liu Ruiying felt that there was a gaze behind her, and turned her head to see that it was Grandma Xiong who sold candy and fried chestnuts.

Grandma Xiong didn't care when she heard Liu Ruiying's words. She just nodded at him with a smile, and then waved her hand.

Seeing Grandma Xiong's hand, Liu Ruiying suddenly remembered that she was able to carry a cloth bag containing 25 kilograms of candy and stir-fried chestnuts in her hand and breathe apart.

At first glance, Grandma Xiong's hands really didn't look special. The back of the hands were ravines and many wrinkles. The skin was also sagging loosely due to age, and it looked like there was no vitality. However, Liu Ruiying noticed that Grandma Xiong's hands were as thin as iron. Not only did they have no extra flesh, but they also inadvertently showed a sense of firmness.

This is not the hand that a small vendor selling candy fried chestnuts should have.

In other words, such hands should not be used to stir-fry chestnuts with shovels, but should hold a sword.

Grandma Xiong also noticed Liu Ruiying's gaze, so she calmly retracted her hand and put it in her sleeve. Liu Ruiying also came to her senses at this time, nodded at Grandma Xiong again, and then carried two swords and walked towards the Zhongdu Quarantine Department.

Along the way, he didn't know what he was thinking, and his eyes didn't look at the road at all. He walked forward entirely with his physical instinct and memory. When he looked up, he stood in front of the gate of Zhongdu Chashi.

The vermilion door is inlaid with golden door nails. There is also a thin red line at a distance of one and a half feet in front of the door. The location where the line is drawn is the closest place to the Zhongdu Qujiansi.

Liu Ruiying looked down at the red line, then raised her legs and stepped over. When his right foot was still on the ground, a small window suddenly opened on the door. A pair of bright eyes stared at Liu Ruiying from behind the small window, and asked:

"Who is here?"

"The northwest special commission of the Zhongdu Investigation Department, Liu Ruiying, the provincial bannerman, will come back to report!"

Liu Ruiying said loudly.

"Can there be a certificate?"

The person on duty was also very excited when he heard that it was Liu Ruiying. However, rules are rules. You can't say that they are, you have to check it before you can.

Liu Ruiying did not have the official uniform of the provincial flag, but his official position was always on his body. After taking it out of his arms, he shook his wrist and threw it in along the small window. The person on duty caught it and immediately opened the door.

"It turned out to be Liu Shengqi, I was disrespectful!"

The man held Liu Ruiying's official position in both hands and handed it back very respectfully.

Liu Ruiying took his official position, nodded slightly, and walked straight in. Although he had only walked for a short time, everything in the inspection department gave him a little strange freshness. It was obviously the places that were once very familiar, but now it seems that it can attract Liu Ruiying's attention again.

It is true that it is said that a small separation is better than a newlywed.

Whether it is a person or a thing, you will always get tired of being together every day. As long as one of you leaves for a little while, you will be extremely happy after reunion.

In fact, what people are afraid of is not the difference, but the fear that they will not be able to reunite after separation. If every separation can be reunited in the end, then separation is a faint expectation for people, and will not produce any bitterness.

Liu Ruiying did not walk the main road of Zhongduanjian, but continued to walk forward along a secluded path. The direction leading here was not his residence, nor was it the location of Tianmu Province, which Liu Ruiying belonged to.

After walking about a cup of tea, an open area appeared in front of me. At the end of the open, there was a huge shed. You could vaguely hear the neighing of the horses and smell the extremely strong smell of horse manure.

Liu Ruiying walked to the horse shed and saw the door wide open. Looking inside, she saw a figure busy.

The man was holding a fork more than one person in his hand and was evenly distributing a large pile of fodder piled in the center of the horse's shed into the trough in front of a beautiful horse.

This is not an easy task. There are at least 180 horses in the horse shed, and it will take at least half a day to do all these things alone.

"Come back?"

The man saw Liu Ruiying standing at the door and asked.

The work in hand didn't stop.

"Here I'm back."

Liu Ruiying said.

Then he walked into the horse shed, sat down at a wooden table in front of the haystack, and placed the two Oujia swords in his hand on the table.

"I don't use a sword, why do you bring two swords for?"

This person said.

"I brought you some specialty wine and tobacco from Dingxi Kings and Zhenbei Kings, but they were all placed in Xiangteng Inn and didn't take it."

Liu Ruiying said.

In his impression, the old horseman had no interest in anything other than tobacco and alcohol. Although he was a horseman, Liu Ruiying had never seen him ride a horse.

After saying that, he took out a cigarette rod from his arms, which he had snatched from the old horseman at that time. He skillfully put a pot of tobacco on skillful techniques, and then pressed the porcelain solid with his thumb. Until the small cigarette pot was filled with it, Liu Ruiying used flint to ignite it and sucked it hard.

"When did you learn to smoke?"

The old horseman asked.

"I also learned to drink. Tobacco and alcohol are not separated, and this is what you told me."

Liu Ruiying said.

"That's true, but tobacco and alcohol are really not something you can learn."

The old horseman said.

Every experience can bring more or less a lot of changes to people. If we talk about the change to Liu Ruiying this time, in the eyes of the old horseman, it is the sadness that once innocent young man has been infected with sorrow. Although he is swallowing the clouds and smog in front of him, he still cannot hide the faint sadness that emanates from his body.

The boy who used to please him for the sake of riding a horse seemed to be gone forever. At that time, Liu Ruiying had a lot of vitality. Even on cloudy days, as long as he walked into the horse shed, he was like a little sun, extremely vigorous.

But this time he walked in, the old horseman did not notice any changes in the horseman's shed. Liu Ruiying seemed to have integrated with the surrounding environment. If you don't look up at him, you don't know whether he exists. Although he is still breathing and his pulse is strong and powerful, you just can't feel it.

The old horseman felt it carefully again, but found that it was still the same. He stopped the work in his hand, stood there with a fork, staring blankly at Liu Ruiying without saying a word.

"Why are you looking at me like this?"

Liu Ruiying asked.

The old horseman's eyes made him feel very uncomfortable. He instinctively tested his body and turned toward him.

"I'm watching you smoke."
