Feng Jiu took out a box of pastries from the space and handed it to the child . “Here, this is for you . ” She bought these on the road as ration, but she didn’t eat much on the way . “How’s that possible?” The old woman quickly refused . She was even more reluctant to ask for it after seeing the exquisite pastry box and the fragrance wafting out from the pastry .
Ordinary people like them wouldn’t dare to ask for such a thing .
“It’s all right . It’s for the kid to eat . Take it . ” She squatted down to open the box and revealed the exquisite pastry inside . “It’s delicious . Take it!”
The little boy’s eyes twinkled as he looked at the pastries in the box . He put a tiny finger in his mouth and sucked it . The boy couldn’t take his eyes off the exquisite little pastry .
“Young Master, this…” The rich nobles who had passed this place in the past looked down on the commoners like them and never gave them anything like this . For a moment, the old woman didn’t know what to do .
“It doesn’t matter . It’s just a box of pastries . ” She stuffed the pastry to the child . “Be obedient and take it . ”
The little boy took the box given by Feng Jiu in his arms . His innocent face wreathed with delighted smiles . “Thank you, Big Brother . ”
“You have to call him Young Master . ” The old woman urged her grandson quickly .
“Thank you, Young Master . ” The little boy thanked her loudly and ran back with the pastries in his arms . At the same time, he also called, “Grandfather, there are delicious pastries…”
“Young Master, please eat first . If it’s not enough, there’s still some more . ” The old woman stepped inside .
Feng Jiu sat down eating the millet porridge served with side dishes and pumpkin pancake . She had a simple and tasty breakfast . After the meal, she took a rest in the room that the old woman had vacated and planned to nap before leaving at noon .
About noon, the old woman knocked at the door .
“Young Master, lunch is ready . Please get up and have a meal . ”
The door opened and Feng Jiu, who had been sleeping for a while, came out . At their invitation, she sat down for a meal and chatted with them . After the lunch, she got up and said goodbye .
“Elder, rest assured . If I see your son, I will certainly convey your message . ” She sat astride on Old White’s back, waved to the old woman, pulled the rein and left .
“Grandmother, grandmother, look!” The little boy came out with a few gold coins . “It’s from that big brother . ”
The old woman took the gold coins with trembling hands . Her lips moved and her eyes reddened . She kept silent for a long time…
Having covered the distance traveled at an accelerated pace, she arrived at Shun Yan City in the evening . She appeared extremely dazzling riding on a white horse with her beautiful looks, outstanding temperament and red dress . As soon as she entered the city, she attracted many people’s attention .
Already accustomed to being an object of attention, she sat on the horse until arriving in front of an inn and then dismounted . The waiter came to welcome her and helped her lead Old White to the stable behind the inn .
“Waiter, give me the best room . ” Feng Jiu called out and went upstairs . “Bring me several of your specialty dishes and a pot of wine . ”
“Yes, please come this way, Young Master . ” The waiter led the way in front of her . After opening the room, he poured her a cup of tea . “Please have a cup of tea first . The wine and dishes will come soon . ”
After a while, the food and wine were brought up and put on the table . When the waiter was about to withdraw, he was called .
“Waiter, how far is the City Lord’s manor from here?” Feng Jiu took a sip of wine and asked in an unhurried tone .
