The man was tall, with an expressionless face, and a look of hostility between his brows and eyes, as if he would not let strangers in.

The woman looked to be twelve or thirteen years old and was dressed in men's clothing. Although she only had a simple bun on her head and no decoration on her head, her outstanding appearance could not be ignored.

She is not just good-looking. Compared with her beautiful appearance, the girl's calmness and calmness are eye-catching and unforgettable.

Because there are really few women like her in this world.

For the young man behind Mr. Jia, this was the first time in his life that he had seen such a woman.

This is a woman who dares to look directly into a man's eyes, and you can't see the slightest bit of shyness or timidity in her eyes.

Some are just confident and peaceful.

Merchant Jia turned around and looked at the young man. Both of them saw surprise in each other's eyes. They did not expect that the people who came to see them were actually two children who were not yet adults!

"Please take a seat." Xu Yue walked to the pavilion, nodded to several people, and motioned for them to sit down.

Her words were simple and straightforward, with no intention of beating around the bush. On the contrary, she made Shang Jia and others a little uncomfortable.

Fortunately, none of them were young men with no experience in making friends in the world. Although they were not used to the straightforwardness and simplicity of the Xu family, they still breathed a sigh of relief.

At least for now, it seems that this young lady from the Xu family has a pretty good attitude towards them.

There were four cushions in front of the table. Xu Yue and his sister occupied two of them, while Merchant Jia and his party had five people.

The five of them looked at each other, almost without hesitation, and tacitly gave up their positions to Merchant Jia and the tall young man.

Xu Yue looked at the two people sitting in front of her indifferently, her eyes first fell on the young man, and then on the smooth businessman Jia.

Whether this move was intentional or unintentional, the two people sitting opposite the brother and sister felt a little uncomfortable and had the illusion of being seen through by the girl opposite.

But this must be just an illusion. After all, no one has ever discovered their identities during their journey.

"I am the youngest in the family, the third in line. You can call me Miss San, or you can call me Xu Yue." Xu Yue introduced himself first, then introduced the brother next to him, and then looked at the two people in front of him.

, waiting for them to introduce themselves.

During this period, her eyes always stayed on the young man, as if this man was the backbone of Shang Jia and his party.

But it is obvious that this group of people has shown a formation headed by Mr. Jia from the time they entered the village to now.

The young man glanced at Xu Yue, who happened to be looking at him as well. Just by looking at each other, the young man knew that this little lady might have known about it for a long time.

He looks like he's only twelve or thirteen years old, but his eyes are so sophisticated!

Now that it had been seen, the young man raised his hand to stop Merchant Jia from making up lies. He raised his hand and saluted the Xu Yue brothers and sisters, and said:

"My dear Sima Zhongda, a native of Hanoi County, has met Miss Xu San and Young Master Xu!"

Sima Zhongda?

Xu Yue looked at her brother beside her and asked him if she had heard of this name.

Xu Dalang nodded. The information Buquying had was very detailed. He leaned over to Xu Yue's ear and whispered in Xu Yue's ear:

"This man's full name is Sima Yi, and Zhongda is his given name. The Sima family is very powerful in Hanoi County, and is now under the command of Cao De."

It turned out to be Sima Yi. Xu Yue felt like she had met a celebrity again, but now she has seen too many celebrities and is very calm.

After all, this father is not as famous as his son Sima Zhao.

Sima Yi is still so young now, and his son Sima Zhao may still be playing in the mud in Hanoi County.

It's more likely that Sima Zhao hasn't even been born yet.

Xu Yue couldn't help asking her brother, which son Sima Yi has given birth to now. After all, it's not the same time and space, so there is no use paying attention to these things. At most, it can add a little emotion of "it's him".

"Did Cao De ask you to come here?" Xu Yue asked curiously, looking at the young man Sima Yi in front of him whose identity had been revealed.

It was obvious that she was really curious.

Xu Yue wanted to know how her family was targeted by Cao De.

Sima Yi did not answer her directly, but smiled faintly and asked:

"The third lady called the lord by his first name, can I take it as a provocation to us?"

This sentence is interesting. Sima Yi's half-smiling look doesn't seem like he wants to defend his lord, but rather he looks happy to see him.

"Your Excellency has a lot of opinions about your master." Xu Yue clicked her tongue.

Sima Yi was not annoyed. Instead, he nodded straightforwardly and said, "Miss Third, you have a vicious eye. You are right. It is indeed the case."

"Before going north, I tried to persuade my lord not to come here, because it was useless and would only increase our fatigue. But my lord didn't believe it, which caused us to come here. I feel resentful in my heart. It's only human nature.

.”

Hearing these words, the face of the merchant Jia next to him became dark, and he was visibly panicked. He opened his mouth but stopped talking, as if he wanted to stop Sima Yi from talking nonsense.

With that anxious look, Xu Yue felt that if she handed him a needle, he would want to sew Sima Yi's mouth shut immediately.

Feeling Xu Yue's gaze, Merchant Jia hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't mind, Miss Third. Zhongda didn't mean to offend, he's just naturally straightforward and doesn't know how to speak."

Xu Yue shook her head and smiled, saying that she didn't mind. She pointed to the iced watermelon on the table and asked the two of them to eat something first to dissipate their resentment.

The sweetness of the watermelon went straight to their noses, and the coolness kept coming. The two of them had long been thinking about the unknown red melon. Now that Xu Yue was generous enough to treat them to it, they suddenly couldn't help it.

To be polite, each picked up a piece and tasted it.

It's cool, sweet and crispy in the mouth, filling your mouth with saliva. It's as delicious as you imagined.

No! It’s even more delicious than imagined!

Xu Dalang silently looked at this group of people who had never seen the world before he groaned and finally spoke his first words to everyone.

"Cao De can't even get melons to eat, so what's the point of going back? If you stay at my house, I'll keep the watermelons for you to eat!"

As soon as Xu Dalang said this, there were a few choking and coughing sounds in the courtyard, as if they were frightened by Xu Dalang. Sima Yi and others who were halfway through eating the melon stopped and looked at Xu Dalang in shock.

Xu Dalang raised his handsome eyebrows: "What? You still want to go back?"

Merchant Jia coughed more heavily and was out of breath. He almost fainted due to choking. After a long while, he calmed down and asked anxiously:

"What do you mean, young master? Are you planning to detain us in Xujiazhuang?"

Xu Dalang smiled contemptuously, "Otherwise? Kill him? It's not impossible!"
