Chapter 653 How could it be him?

On the other side, Wen Xiaoyun walked quickly towards his official residence.

I stood in the execution room for most of the day. I was so engrossed in the case files that I didn't feel tired at all. Now after work, I feel dizzy and my legs are numb.

Now she just wants to fly back to her official residence, dive into the pile of new quilts arranged by Yin Nuo, sleep soundly, and have a good rest.

Of course, it would be even more perfect if we could eat the hot rice and dishes brought by Yinnuo before then.

When she thought of the sweet shortbread and various fresh vegetables she had eaten at noon, Wen Xiaoyun felt her stomach tightening and wished she could fly back in two steps.

Thinking like this, her steps became faster and faster, and she walked around the row of houses in front of her, turned a corner, and walked to her brand new official house.

But at this time, she didn't know that there was a person struggling to move forward at the other end of the row of houses.

The only difference was that the man's steps were heavy and dragging. Even though he clenched his teeth, tensed the muscles in his body, and almost used all his strength, every step he took was still very laborious.

The reason is that he is carrying a pole on his shoulder, with a large wooden barrel hanging on each end of the pole, and the barrel is filled with steaming hot water.

With every step he took, the barrel swayed tremblingly in the air.

In order to prevent the hot water from splashing out, he carefully held the edge of the barrel with both hands. He did not dare to directly pull the rope on the barrel for fear that the rising steam would hurt his hands. But even so,

The temperature was so high that the edge of the barrel still burned him badly.

Of these two people, one was dizzy and anxious to return; the other was sweating profusely and struggling. Both were equally unprepared for the road ahead.

So there was no suspense. Just when Wen Xiaoyun wanted to turn right in a hurry, he accidentally collided with the man!

Following the man's shrill scream, the scalding hot water poured straight towards Wen Xiaojun's face and door!

Wen Xiaoyun woke up instantly. Several life and death tests had already made her body react faster than her brain.

She swung her body to the side, her feet quickly lifted off the ground, and she turned sideways to avoid the biggest and most deadly wave of scalding water.

Only the flying hem of the clothes was slightly wet.

At the critical moment when the bucket suddenly tipped forward, the young man opposite him crouched down and stepped back to avoid being killed by the splashing hot water.

There was only a loud bang, followed by the sound of water splashing on the ground, and the two buckets made a waltz on the ground.

"Oh," Wen Xiaoyun, who barely stood still, saw the muddy mess on the ground, covered her mouth in panic, and quickly apologized to the young government servant who fell to the ground in front of her, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, you,

Are you okay?"

While she hurriedly apologized incoherently, she walked around the mud on the ground, walked quickly to the young government servant, and stretched out her hand to help him.

The clerk sat on the ground blankly, staring blankly at the hot water all over the floor. After being stunned for five seconds, he seemed to finally realize what had happened, and the delicate facial features on his dark face were wrinkled in pain.

At the same time, he ignored Wen Xiaojun's support and rushed towards the heavy wooden bucket that fell to the ground in front of him.

When he spoke again, he was already crying, "Why, how could it be like this?"

Only then did Wen Xiaojun realize that this young official was the young official who bumped into Hu Dongcai when he took her to the collective office in the morning, holding a human bone.

Wasn't he going to go on a mission with the barracks? Why did he come back so soon?

That's not right.

The more Wen Xiaoyun thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. If this mission would end so simply and quickly, so many vehicles, horses, food and grass would not be used.

Furthermore, given the seriousness of the Yang family's vigilance against this mission, it shouldn't be a small round trip that can take only half a day.

But now Wen Xiaoyun has no time to think about those details. The top priority is to get him involved as soon as possible. If he should apologize, he should pay him two buckets of hot water. He should pay him two buckets of hot water.

Thinking of this, she took two steps forward, grabbed the man's arm, and said in a hurry: "Brother, I'm so sorry, it's all my fault. Don't worry, if these two buckets of hot water are needed urgently,

Yes, I'll call you again right now, don't be anxious."

After hearing Wen Xiaojun's words, the little boy came back to his senses. He turned his head blankly and looked at Wen Xiaojun with blank eyes.

Wen Xiaoyun's heart suddenly moved, and Xiao Wuzuo's face was filled with tears before he knew it.

Wen Xiaoyun was even more panicked now, "Is this hot water specially needed for the widow's house?" She asked subconsciously.

When asked by Wen Xiaoyun, Xiao Wuzuo realized that he had shed tears.

He wiped his face with both hands indiscriminately, pretending that nothing was wrong, and explained in a hoarse voice, "Ah, I was scared too. This hot water is not prepared for the widow's room. No, it's okay. I'll go get it myself."

Just two buckets. No need to bother you, I’ll bother you..."
