Chapter 151 Papaya has arrived
It was not easy for her to become a legitimate free person in this cannibalistic feudal society. No matter what, she could no longer become a man's accessory.
Even if he is the man she truly loves.
It seems it's time to leave.
After Wen Wan made up her mind, she no longer wavered.
She had expected this day, so she was not surprised. She just didn't expect that this day would come so quickly.
She looked at Agui, suspicion flashed across her face, "Achai has saved your life, why would you tell me such important news?"
When Agui heard this, he was silent for a while, and then said: "Because, before leaving Mobei, I promised Wen En to protect you."
The general saved his life, Wen En also saved his life, and Miss Xiaowan was also very kind to him. These three people were all his benefactors.
Before leaving Mobei, Wen En only asked him one thing.
Wen En said: "She has to choose her own future. If the General's Mansion is not her destination, I hope you can help her leave. If... she is willing to be raised by him in the back house, then... please take care of her more." ”
He, Agui, is a rough guy who doesn't understand the love and hatred between his benefactors. He only remembers one sentence.
The future path should be decided by Miss Xiaowan herself.
Mentioning Wen En, Wen Wan's heart couldn't help but feel empty again.
She pursed her lips and finally said softly: "Thank you."
Thank him, and thank you... Winn.

In the past two days, Mr. Hu had caught a cold and fell asleep deeply after lunch.
Granny Li was making medicine for him in the kitchen, and the faint smell of herbs floated throughout the yard.
Wenwan returned to the house to pack her things, bringing only a few changes of clothes and gold and silver items.
She counted the remaining money in her hand, and divided the property of about three thousand taels into three parts, one for the people in the small courtyard, and the other for everyone in the side courtyard.
When she walked out of the yard with her baggage on her back, she did not attract the attention of the two old people.
Only when she closed the courtyard door, her eyes were red, and she reluctantly glanced at this small courtyard that belonged to her.
There was no farewell, no chance for him to hesitate.
When the courtyard door closed, Granny Li, who had been dozing by the fire, suddenly opened her eyes.
She seemed to hear something and stood up and leaned out the window to take a look.
Did she hear it wrong? Why did you hear the sound of the courtyard door closing?
Granny Li shook her head and didn't take it seriously. She just thought that she was old and her ears were not working well.
The soup in the earthen pot was bubbling, and Granny Li quickly picked up a ceramic spoon and stirred it.
The sun was slightly warm, and the small courtyard was still peaceful as time passed. It seemed that no earth-shattering changes had occurred just because a person left quietly.

The tired Jin Mu didn't see Shen Yu in the camp, so he rushed to Shen's mansion again.
At the entrance of Shen's mansion, a carriage belonging to a Hu merchant was parked, and a caravan clerk was unloading a basket of papayas from the carriage.
The housekeeper stood on the side and asked the servant to lift the wooden frame and weigh it.
Seeing Jin Mu striding over, the housekeeper smiled and greeted him.
"Hey, it's Captain Jinmu. Are you back from a business trip? You are really lucky. Today, Shang Hu just sent fresh papaya, and it happened to be that the kitchen made steamed papaya eggs tonight."
The housekeeper who is over fifty years old, like all the elderly, cannot hold back his chatterbox.
"Miss Xiaowan has been looking forward to these fresh papayas for months, and now the goods have finally arrived."
"I don't know how this papaya got the favor of Miss Xiaowan, but she actually asked her several times. I will tell Miss Xiaowan the news soon, and she will be extremely happy."
Miss Xiaowan and the general have been inseparable all day long, and now they are truly held in the palm of the hand by the general. If Miss Xiaowan is happy, the general must also be satisfied.
When Jin Mu heard the words "Miss Xiaowan", his expression changed, but he didn't say anything.
"Is the general in the house?"
The housekeeper shook his head, "I'm not here right now. Mr. Gao got two good things and invited him to enjoy them. But the general said that he should be notified immediately when the papaya arrives, so I just sent someone to send the message. I guess He will be back soon."
Jin Mu's eyes dimmed, "Are the general and Miss Xiaowan... okay during my absence?"
The housekeeper didn't see anything strange about Jin Mu, "Of course that's good. And ah, it's so good! I'm thinking about it, there will be a wedding in our house soon. Miss Xiaowan doesn't know the identity of our general, but she still admires us so much. , if you knew it, you would definitely be more determined.”
"Although Miss Xiaowan's family is not well off and she is an orphan, she is a very smart girl and is qualified to enter the general's back house..."
The butler was still talking, but Kaneki couldn't listen anymore.
The housekeeper didn't know, but he knew Miss Xiaowan's mood.
How could such a girl be willing to be raised in the back house of the general's mansion, let alone now...

Take a look at the 16-9 book bar!
The more Jin Mu thought about it, the more anxious he became. He didn't want to wait for a moment and was about to get on his horse and go to Gao Ling's house to find someone.
At the corner of the street, Shen's carriage appeared slowly.
Jin Mu paused, rushed over quickly, and said with cupped hands: "General, my subordinate has returned from Linqiu City and has something important to report!"
On the carriage, Shen Yu opened the curtain.
When he saw Jin Mu's anxious expression, his expression paused.
He couldn't wait to enter the study, wait for those who had no stake in his life to step aside, and let Kaneki step forward to speak.
"Pick up the important things."
How dare Jin Mu delay, "General, my subordinates have found out that there is indeed a merchant named Zhou Wanwan in Linqiu City, but he does not have a concubine named Zhao Xiaowan. Moreover, the merchant's mother-in-law is a famous tigress. For some forces, Zhou Wanwan relied on her mother's family to make a fortune and would not dare to have a concubine."
When Shen Yu heard this, he immediately understood.
"Oh," his dark pupils shone with light, "So, her identity is fake."
Kaneki nodded bravely.
After all, he had seen strong winds and waves. Although Shen Yu felt a storm in his heart, it didn't show on his face at all.
For a moment, he seemed to remember something and asked worriedly: "Have you told anyone else about this news after you returned to the border town?"
Kaneki thought about it carefully and shook his head affirmatively, "No."
Shen Yu's worried look did not relax at all, "Have you met any acquaintances along the way?"
Jin Mu nodded, "My subordinate went to the garrison camp to look for you first, and came to Shen's Mansion only after you were away. I met Agui at the gate of the camp before, and when I saw that he was still alive, I got excited and chatted with him for a few words. ”
"He asked me where I had been on this trip. I casually returned to Linqiu City, but my subordinates didn't reveal a word about what I was going to do..."
"Idiot!"
Shen Yu jumped off the carriage, grabbed the war horse in front of Jin Mu, jumped on the horse's back, raised the reins and ran out.
"Go and receive your penalty of twenty military sticks!"
Jin Mu saw the general walking away, his face still full of confusion.
He murmured to himself, "Where did I go wrong? Agui is one of my own. Besides, I didn't say anything specific..."
