Jiang Zhi's attacks were still fierce, and she pushed straight towards Chen Shaobei's door again and again.

Chen Shaobei frowned and responded with ease, only defending but not attacking.

Finally, he seized the opportunity and cut Jiang Zhi's hands behind her back, trapping her in front of her.

Jiang Zhi struggled hard, but was not as strong as him.

Chen Shaobei lowered his head and stared into her eyes: "Are you a lunatic? Why do you attack me so often every time you see me?"

"You insidious villain, how dare you say that? I finally found a job. You go to my master's house and attack me first, breaking the sandbags. The master uses this as an excuse to kick me out!"

Jiang Zhi was angry: "I have no grievances with you. You are trying to trick me like this. It's only strange that I don't want to beat you to death!"

Chen Shaobei was confused: "Before I left, I clearly paid silver compensation to the housekeeper, which also showed that you were not the one to blame for this matter. How could you still be kicked out?"

Could it be that the housekeeper stole the money?

It's not impossible.

Jiang Zhi angrily scolded: "I don't believe your nonsense!"

While he wasn't paying attention, he raised his leg and stepped on his instep hard.

Chen Shaobei felt pain and immediately let go of her.

Jiang Zhi turned around and was about to strike with a knife.

"Jiang...Brother Jiang!" Shen Ningning called out softly, causing her to stop moving.

She turned around and saw the little guy, and was surprised for a moment: "Little sister, why are you here?"

Shen Ningning hurriedly ran over and stood between her and Chen Shaobei, keeping the distance between them.

"Don't fight, don't fight. There must be a misunderstanding. Let's go upstairs and talk while eating, okay?"

Jiang Zhi was indeed a little hungry. She hadn't eaten in two days and the clothes she was wearing were still picked up.

I just came to the restaurant and wanted to find a menial job, but I didn't expect that there was no shortage of waiters.

She thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

A moment later, the private room on the second floor.

At the round table, Jiang Zhi and Chen Shaobei sat opposite each other, both of them looking unhappy.

Jiang Zhi looked at him with disgust, and he looked at her coldly, because Jiang Zhi was unreasonable and his feet hurt from being stepped on by her!

Shen Ningning took the menu and broke the silence: "Shall we eat roasted pork with eggs?"

"Whatever." They both said in unison.

The two people obviously hate each other, but they understand each other exceptionally well.

Even Chen Ye couldn't help but wipe away a cold sweat.

"Why are you trying to imitate me?" Jiang Zhi slapped the table.

Chen Shaobei frowned: "Don't be so arrogant. I've already told you. I paid the money before, but I didn't know that the housekeeper would be greedy for money."

Jiang Zhi was furious: "People in the capital are so bad. You are from the capital. Don't you know?"

Chen Shaobei suddenly stood up: "Don't be so unreasonable!"

Jiang Zhi followed him and faced each other, not losing her momentum: "Who bullied others first!?"

She was carrying the sandbag well before, but he insisted on coming to provoke her, so the sandbag broke and the owner scolded her and kicked her out.

In Jiang Zhi's eyes, Chen Shaobei is the representative of the rotten people in the capital.

Chen Ye quickly raised his hand to persuade him to make peace. He picked up the teapot and said, "You two heroes, calm down. You have scared the young lady."

Jiang Zhi and Chen Shaobei looked at Shen Ningning at the same time.

The little guy raised the menu and covered it below his nose, only revealing a pair of big, watery eyes.

She looked at them playfully, not as if she was afraid, but as if she was quietly watching the fun.

However, in order to save Shen Ningning's face, Jiang Zhi and Chen Shaobei sat down at the same time with tacit agreement.

Shen Ningning put down the menu, called the waiter, and ordered a bunch of dishes.

After the delicacies were served, the little guy asked Jiang Zhi to eat more.

She was so hungry that she even ate two bowls of rice, which was not enough.

She ate the whole roasted chicken.

Chen Shaobei stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the fish, but he was afraid that she would not eat enough, so he took his hand back and only drank the soup with a cold expression.

Shen Ningning said hurriedly: "Eat more, if you don't have enough, order more. Ningning has money."

Jiang Zhi shook her head: "That's enough."

After she finished eating, she glanced sideways at Chen Shaobei and asked Shen Ningning: "Little sister, you are such a nice person, how come you know this bad guy?"

"Brother Chen Shaobei is not a bad person!" Shen Ningning explained.

Jiang Zhi was surprised: "So it turns out that it was his house that threw you out and made your skirt dirty?"

As a result, she looked at Chen Shaobei even more unceremoniously.

Shen Ningning waved her little hand, with a smile on her round face: "That was all a misunderstanding, it's over now!"

"But, Jiang...brother, where are you staying now?"

Jiang Zhi was a little depressed.

"I used to live in a dilapidated temple outside the city, but it was later occupied by a group of refugees, so I came into the city and wandered around doing odd jobs to make ends meet."

Chen Shaobei crossed his arms and said coldly: "You have martial arts skills, why don't you use this to apply for a nursing home?"

How could Jiang Zhi tell him because she was a woman.

Those nursing homes of wealthy families had to undergo an inspection before entering the house. Of course, she couldn't let others know her identity.

Therefore, Jiang Zhi said angrily: "No one wants me."

"It was my fault that you lost your job as a handyman before. Since you are also aggrieved, I might as well introduce you to a place to go." Chen Shaobei said.

Jiang Zhi didn't appreciate it: "Thank you for your kindness, but no, I'm not used to accepting favors from others."

Chen Shaobei snorted coldly: "I don't know what is good and what is evil."

Afraid that they would quarrel again, Shen Ningning hurriedly said: "Brother Jiang, if you don't have a place to live, why don't you stay at my house first?"

Jiang Zhi was startled: "Your home?"

"Yes, I have a vacant village house. My grandma and I usually live in the mountains. You can live there."

"Where?"

"Xiangyun Village."

Jiang Zhi was surprised: "Are you the legendary little wolf girl in Xiangyun Village who can command the wolves?"

Shen Ningning's round face was pink and she smiled a little embarrassedly: "Is it spread so widely?"

It’s really her!

Jiang Zhi hurriedly held her hand and said excitedly: "Good sister, you are a real person who works with wolves. I admire people like you!"

It looks round and cute, like a bunny.

He commands the wolves with great authority. Who doesn't like this little cutie?

Chen Shaobei saw Jiang Zhi grabbing Shen Ningning's little hand and touching it.

If Mo Lingwei saw this, he wouldn't be happy.

So, for the sake of his friends, he frowned and said, "Your hands are so dirty, can you please stop touching her?"

Jiang Zhi hissed and gritted her teeth, turning to look at him: "Sister Ningning and I are destined, why are you anxious?"

Shen Ningning smiled and patted her: "Okay, okay, it's settled. Brother Jiang, you will stay in my village house for now, and I will take you back with me later."

After the group finished eating and left the restaurant, Chen Shaobei said goodbye.

Before leaving, he called Shen Ningning to the side to talk alone.

"Miss Shen, I advise you to be wary of Jiang Zhi." Just when he heard Jiang Zhi introduce his name, Chen Shaobei thought it was the "Zhi" used by the man.

Shen Ningning was puzzled: "Why?"

Chen Shaobei analyzed in a deep voice: "His surname is Jiang, and he uses Tongsheng Quan. He is most likely Jiang Xiaofeng's son."

Afraid that Shen Ningning wouldn't know who Jiang Xiaofeng was, Chen Shaobei simply explained a few words.

"In the early years, water bandits were active in the Pingzhou area. Taking advantage of the complex terrain of the river, they often hijacked passing ships. They were also cunning and difficult to catch, so the water bandits became more and more serious."

"The emperor sent troops many times, but the officials' tactics were different from that of these water bandits, and they allowed them to escape several times. Therefore, the court recruited the most famous bandit leader in Pingzhou at that time to deal with these water bandits. , giving preferential treatment to high-ranking officials with generous salaries."

Fighting evil with evil is a common method used by the imperial court.

"This bandit leader is called Jiang Xiaofeng. He has great boxing skills and powerful martial arts. People in the world call him the Bandit King. He quickly agreed to the court's arrangement and beat the water bandits to a pulp."

"It's just that later..." Chen Shaobei paused.

Shen Ningning listened with excitement: "What happened next?"

Chen Shaobei sighed, seeming to feel a little regretful: "After the drought, the water bandits in the river were vulnerable and collapsed faster. The court felt that Jiang Xiaofeng was useless."

"So, with the help of Wei Shangshu and several ministers, the imperial court strangled Jiang Xiaofeng and his men who came to receive the merit reward for disturbing the safety of Pingzhou."

Shen Ningning was slightly shocked when she heard this.

Jiang Xiaofeng happily believed that he could transform from a bandit to a hero of the imperial court.

He thought he was here to receive a reward, but little did he know that Jin led his brothers into a tragic death.

Chen Shaobei said: "I heard that he has a son who has disappeared without a trace. He probably escaped. And Jiang Zhi is most likely a descendant of Jiang Xiaofeng."

When he said this, he glanced at Jiang Zhi in the distance.

She chewed some chicken bones and made a crunching sound.

When she saw Chen Shaobei, she snorted and complained to Chen Ye: "Believe it or not, he must be talking bad about me."

Chen Ye smiled helplessly.
