Although the silence and training in the past two months did not bring about a rapid improvement in Zhou Jia's cultivation level, his martial arts skills have made great progress.

The cultivation level of the sixth grade surpasses the strength of the seventh grade.

Strength makes people feel at ease.

After replacing his own shield and carrying it on his back, he did not rush out of the city, but took a rare walk around the inner city.

I visited Master He and he gave me some words of encouragement.

As for the secret medicine...

As the Third Elder said, only true disciples of the Tieyuan Sect were taught. He tentatively offered to buy it with money, but was flatly rejected.

He even almost fell out and had to resign in anger.

Near Situ Lei's house, I met a person I had never thought of.

Wang Baolin!

Finally, we went to Master Huo's outer house where Chen Hui and Lu Rong were.

…………

The area around the house was heavily guarded, and the noble ladies of the city were standing on the left and right, surrounding a man and a woman getting into the car.

"Yun'er, be careful."

Master Huo looked doting on his face and helped Miss Qian, who was obviously pregnant, to board the carriage:

"I told you that I shouldn't have let you come. It doesn't take long. Just stay at home and raise the baby peacefully. If you run around and get some fetal pressure..."

"Shh!" Compared to before, Miss Qian, who was now a married woman, looked more dignified. She put her fingers against Master Huo's lips and said with a smile:

"I'm not the kind of weak woman who has no strength to restrain a chicken. It's okay to go out for a walk."

"Say it again!"

She raised her head and stretched her arms on the carriage:

"I can't go out for a cold month, and I'm almost suffocated. I just took this opportunity to go shopping, and my mother agreed."

"Okay, okay." Master Huo nodded repeatedly:

"Then let's go to the next place. We won't go around much today. There will be a banquet in the evening, and the house will be very lively then."

"Um."

The carriage drove by slowly, with the young men and young ladies following behind.

Zhou Jia's body was pressed against the wall, and like other passers-by, he lowered his head in silence and waited for the convoy to go away before starting on the road again.

"squeak……"

The sound of the wooden shaft turning was harsh and harsh.

Two beautiful figures, one pink and one blue, jumped out from the back door and looked at them with smiles.

"Passerby!"

"Brother Zhou."

Chen Hui was wearing a pink skirt and was still lively and active. Lu Rong was wearing a green jacket. Her figure looked a bit bloated and her voice was crisp.

"What a coincidence you came here."

Chen Hui clapped her hands lightly and said with a smile:

"Whenever the cold moon passes, the young lady will come here to see us. Did you see Mr. Huo Genqian and the others just now?"

"Yeah." Zhou Jia nodded:

"seen."

"Hehe..." Lu Rong chuckled, a blush appearing on her pretty face:

"Speaking of which, does our current status look like those in costume TV dramas where young ladies marry into wealthy families?"

"Don't tell me, it really looks like it!" Chen Hui's eyes lit up, she took out something wrapped in oil paper from her arms and handed it over:

"The sweets the lady gave us are very rare in Huojiabao. You are in for a treat."

"oh!"

Zhou Jia reached out and took it:

"Then you must try it."

Sweets are a luxury item in Huojiabao and are also available in outer cities. Xiaoyu, who passed away, once found a job similar to a pastry worker.

However, the sweets in the outer city are not delicious and the quality is poor.

The pastry wrapped in oil paper is square, exuding an alluring sweetness, and there is a layer of cream-like stuff inside, which is delicate and smooth.

The three of them didn't wash their hands and ate each other at the back door.

The sweet taste is really something I haven’t seen in a long time.

"This is what Leilei asked me to buy for her. You can give it to her when you go out."

"good!"

"It's you?"

Just as they were about to separate, a magnetic voice came from the end of the street.

The three of them heard the sound and looked around, and saw several young people in gorgeous clothes walking towards them.

They are obviously the children of noble families.

One of them had a slit in her long skirt that almost reached her waist, exposing her slender legs. She was looking at Zhou Jia openly in the cold wind.

"Master Cheng."

Zhou Jia lowered his head and nodded to one of them.

"Your... surname is Zhou, right?" Cheng Ping, the son of the leader of the Yulonghui Punishment Hall, frowned, then vaguely remembered Zhou Jia's surname, and frowned:

"Why did you come into the inner city?"

"Third Elder has something to say, I'm here to run some errands and see my friends." Zhou Jia's expression remained unchanged:

"I don't dare to disturb you, I'll do it right away."

He didn't lie, it's just that Mrs. Wang Hanyue had explained the matter before, saying that it would be done after Hanyue, so there was no rush.

"Wait a minute!" the woman who spoke just now said in a voice, licked the corner of her mouth, and said with a smile:

"Now that we're here, why bother leaving in a hurry? Why don't we go to a restaurant and sit down together? I appreciate a young and promising man like you the most."

The woman has a gorgeous appearance and a coquettish voice, which is so sweet that it makes your bones tingle. Even the snacks you just ate seem to have become a lot bland.

"Yeah." Cheng Ping also nodded:

"Now that Miss Wu has spoken, if it's not urgent, let's go there."

"Sorry." Zhou Jia shook his head:

"My subordinate has been delayed for a long time. If I don't do it, I'm afraid it will be late. If I miss the third elder's business, the punishment will be a trivial matter."

"Um?"

Cheng Ping's expression darkened.

Several other people also had different expressions.

On the surface of Huojiabao, the upper and lower classes are not obvious, but in reality the gap between them is like a natural chasm.

When they first arrived at Huojiapu, Mr. Huo casually said the word "roll", and some people actually rolled away and left. At that time, everyone felt a little funny.

but now.

It was Mr. Huo's magnanimity that that man could leave at that time.

The few people in front of them were not very ambitious, and they never thought that a small 'subordinate' could be disobedient.

"Tsk tsk..." Someone held the heater in his hand, shook his head and said:

"Brother Cheng, you are not good at controlling your subordinates."

"Make Brother Xu laugh." Cheng Ping took a deep breath, his eyes were cold, and just as he was about to speak, there was a sound from the house.

"Huihui, Rongrong, come back quickly. Miss forgot to give out the reward money. She came here specifically to pay us. Come back quickly to collect the reward. If you are late, it will be gone!"

The two women's delicate bodies trembled, and they subconsciously looked at Zhou Jia.

"You guys go back."

Zhou Jia waved his hand and looked at Cheng Ping and others:

"Master Cheng, my subordinates say goodbye."

As he spoke, he slowly backed away.

Several people looked at each other, but they knew that now was not the time to take action. After all, they came here with Miss Qian and his wife.
