Chapter 866 ·The Future

Looking at the dark sky, Tang Xueru felt even more nervous and uneasy. She even kept trembling and held Xiaoyuan's hand tremblingly and said, "You said Rongxuan will have no trouble all the way? This is the first time she is going far away? Besides, she is still sick and I don't know what is going on in Nanjing. My heart is so upset, why are you so uneasy?"

Xiaoyuan couldn't understand what she was muttering, and didn't know how to persuade her, so she could only help her back to the room.

Chuntao, who was guarding the house, saw this and hurriedly came up, "Miss Ru, what's wrong with you? Is it okay? Brother Wu Jie came just now and said that you asked him to come to get the box of money, so I found it for him."

Tang Xueru nodded, "I ordered him to come."

Chuntao then felt relieved, "Why is your face so ugly? Is something wrong?"

Tang Xueru asked without answering a question, "When will my grandmother come back?"

Chuntao said, "Don't you know, do you want me to go to the concierge and wait?"

Tang Xueru thought for a while, "No need, come in and serve me to rest. I want to go to bed early today."

"This time?" Chuntao was very surprised. Tang Xueru was the most energetic time every day. Even if she lay on the bed, she had to nag for a while before she could go to bed. What's wrong today?

Chuntao was even more surprised by his abnormal behavior.

Tang Xueru said, "Yes, I'm a little tired today."

Chuntao didn't say anything else and went out to fetch water.

Tang Xueru asked Xiaoyuan to go back to rest, and she also specifically reminded her, "If someone asks about Rongxuan's whereabouts, don't you say anything, do you know?"

Xiaoyuan solemnly agreed, "I know."

Tang Xueru felt relieved and watched her go out. When Chuntao came back from getting water, she lay on the bed after washing up, but her heart kept jumping.

Too many things happened in this day.

Brother Zhi is dead... Rongxuan goes out to Nanjing again...

Tang Xueru felt very scared. She pinched the horn of the quilt tightly, feeling cold sweat all over her body.

Bai Rongxuan and Wu Jie left the back alley, and after walking a few steps, they were already exhausted and panting. She took out the medicine bottle containing the Heart Pill and prepared to take another pill to cheer up. Seeing this, Wu Jie hurriedly stopped her, "Miss Xuan, the pharmacy shop has given her special instructions. Although this medicine can refresh the spirit in a short time, the side effects are also extremely great. It will take three days to take another pill. How long has it been, your body will not be able to bear it if you take it like this."

Bai Rongxuan said weakly, "But I don't have much strength in my hands and feet. If this continues, I'm afraid I can't even go to the ferry. How can I go to Nanjing?"

Wu Jie said, "You are waiting here, I will hire a carriage. After getting on the boat, you will be at ease and keep it. It is best to stick to it until you get off the boat and then take the next pill."

Bai Rongxuan nodded, "Then you go quickly, don't delay too long, wait until I reach the ferry before leaving."

Then it will be too late.

Wu Jie agreed and turned around and walked away quickly. Not long after, he called a carriage back. Bai Rongxuan was held in a difficult position by Wu Jie, and the carriage was swaying towards the ferry.

Bai Rongxuan was worried that the merchant ships that had missed Nanjing were urging the coachman to go faster. Fortunately, there were not many pedestrians on the road at night, and it was convenient to leave the city. It saved about half of the time, so the carriage stopped by the ferry.

Although it was night, there were still many workers on the ferry shouting phone calls to carry goods.

Wu Jie helped Bai Rongxuan get out of bed, paid the cost of the carriage, and said to Bai Rongxuan, "You are waiting for me here, I'll go find a boat."

Bai Rongxuan was already sweating all over and her clothes were about to get wet. She nodded with her spirits and sat on the ground and couldn't stand up.

Wu Jie sighed and ran to the river bank to find a boat. Fortunately, the cargo ship to Nanjing had not left the port yet, and only a few items were left to be transported. After seeing Wu Jie, he smiled and said, "You kid are really lucky. You will not be able to catch up if you come later." Then he led him to meet the captain.

The captain was from Nanjing. He was not tall. Although he was not familiar with the Tang family, he often had contact with the head. Seeing that the head of the head introduced the people to him so politely, he also gave him a cabin for them to rest.

Wu Jie was extremely grateful and thanked the captain again and again.

Pull him aside, "When you arrive in Nanjing, ask him to go to a restaurant, or buy him some small things. This is how your connections move. You have to know how to do something, otherwise it will be that simple to ask someone to do things next time."

Wu Jie smiled and said, "Don't worry, I still understand this principle."

He stopped talking and ordered his men to transport the last two items of cargo onto the ship as soon as possible.

Wu Jie hurried to find Bai Rongxuan. He happened to pass by someone, but he was too anxious and didn't pay much attention, but the other party noticed him.

That person was Xiao Yizi beside Li Yi, and the goods to be delivered to Nanjing today are also from the Li family.

Seeing this, he stretched his neck and followed Wu Jie's figure curiously. Wu Jie ran to the corner to help a thin and thin man up, and the two of them walked slowly towards the boat.

Xiao Yizi exclaimed, and was extremely puzzled, "What are the Tang family doing in Nanjing?"

The follower behind him heard the voice and stepped forward and said, "Brother Xiaoyi, don't you know yet? There is a young master in the Tang family studying in Nanjing, and he is probably going to visit relatives in Nanjing."

Xiao Yizi suddenly realized, "So that's it." He knew that the head of the family Li Yi had a good impression of Tang Xuerusheng, so he was naturally very concerned about the affairs of the Tang family. Xiao Yizi waved to the captain and explained to him, "You should take care of more people from the Tang family on the boat and send people and goods to Nanjing safely, and your benefits will be indispensable in the future."

The captain was happy and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Brother Xiao Yi, you have spoken. If I don't look at the monks and Buddha's faces, I will never let them have any trouble."

Xiao Yizi was very satisfied.

Bai Rongxuan held onto the boat, and the crew took them into the cabin, and looked at Bai Rongxuan curiously. Wu Jie hurriedly said, "My young master was on a boat for the first time, and he felt a little worried."

The crew nodded, "Don't worry, our ship is small, but it sails very quickly. It takes six or seven days for other ships to arrive in Nanjing, and we will arrive in four or five days."

Bai Rongxuan breathed a little relieved. She wanted to fly to Nanjing immediately now, and she couldn't wait for a moment.

After seeing off the crew, Wu Jie lie down while serving Bai Rongxuan. He asked with concern, "Miss Xuan, how are you doing? Can you still hold on?" Seeing her looking at her step by step, Wu Jie was very worried, afraid that she would not be able to hold on and that she would not be able to take care of her.

Bai Rongxuan took a deep breath and said, "Don't call me Miss Xuan, be heard carefully."

Wu Jie said, "Then what am I calling you?"

Bai Rongxuan thought for a while, "Just call me Master Zhi."

Master Zhi...

Wu Jie glanced at Bai Rongxuan, hesitated for a long time, but hesitated without yelling.

Bai Rongxuan's mind was full of brother's figure, and she had a headache. She fell on the stiff bed, feeling like her body was hollowed out, and she didn't even know where it hurt.

The ship quickly set sail and drove along the river bank. The scenery on both sides slowly retreated in the night, and Bai Rongxuan suddenly thought of herself in her previous life.

Her ups and downs began when her brother passed away. Now she has lived again and she has embarked on a journey with uncertain future.

What will be waiting for her ahead?
