ball bat, and nervously grabbed her wrist and asked."What's going on""Are you hurt"How are you hurtFang Jinxiu annoyed closed her eyes, Ah, **, for a moment forgot this matter, and just raised her arm...Fang Jinshu was just about to leave when Zhao Xingzhou suddenly blocked her way.

"What's up"

It's been over three years now, Zong Yu wasn't really in any danger back then. Fang Jinxiu isn't as angry about it anymore.

Zhao Xingzhou has also had a hard time these past few years. She doesn't need to ask, she knows that something major must have happened to the Zhao family, otherwise, how could he have fallen to working at a dental clinic

She wasn't willing to pay much attention to Zhao Xingzhou, still out of that initial motive.

His intentions, she couldn't reciprocate.

Since we can't be friends, let's just maintain this master-servant relationship. It's simpler that way.

Fang Jinshu was willing to stay put and talk to him, Zhao Xingzhou was very surprised, so he reacted half a beat slower. Seeing Fang Jinshu impatiently frowning, he quickly lowered his head and spoke.

"Madam, Young Master Yuanbao has been four years old for some time since the New Year. It is precisely the best time to start martial arts training."

"To enable young Master Yuanbao to face danger in the future, this servant can teach Young Master martial arts."

Fang Jinshu was taken aback. She had never thought about it before.

That's right, Yuanbao can learn martial arts.

Her mind still carried the thinking of modern people. Children should only study and learn the arts, forgetting that in this era, they could also learn martial arts and become skilled warriors to protect themselves.

Fang Jinshu almost didn't hesitate before nodding in agreement.

"Alright, from tomorrow onwards you will be Yuan Bao's martial arts instructor, and your monthly salary will be increased by one tael."

Hearing this, Zhao Xingzhou suddenly raised his head and stared blankly at Fang Jinxiu, as if he couldn't believe she would agree so quickly.

And his tone of voice was also very gentle, unlike the disgusted and cold expression he had when they first met at the dental clinic.

His surprised expression also made Fang Jinshu feel strange.

"How so Think the pay is low"

Fang Jinxiu actually took the matter seriously, after all, Zhao Xingzhou had been a young master his whole life, and he probably never imagined that one day he would be a servant to others, earning only two ounces of silver a month.

Two ounces of silver wouldn't even be enough to buy Zhao Jiusheng a cup of tea back then.

She was hesitating whether to offer him more money, actually she didn't know how much the martial arts instructors outside charged per month. She just gave him two taels based on her feeling earlier.

Zhao Xingzhou, after all, was a native of the area and his martial arts were only slightly inferior to Shen Li, this imperial guard. It would be difficult for her to find a martial arts master as skilled as Zhao Xingzhou if she went outside temporarily.

"Then, how about I give it to you."

She was about to offer more money, or let Zhao Xingzhou name his price.

I didn't expect to hear him explain in such a hurry.

"No, I don't mind the small amount of money."

"Even if Mistress doesn't give me a single copper, the servant is willing to teach Young Master martial arts."

Zhao Xingzhou's heart was beating fast. He was already content that Jinxiu was willing to stay by his side.

He thought he would never see her again and that they would never cross paths.

After all, he had done such a foolish and selfish thing. To satisfy his own feelings, he deceived her and even tried to imprison her.

Zhao Xingzhou, don't be too greedy.

Under Fang Jinxiu's probing gaze, he quickly lowered his head. "Starting tomorrow, the little one will go to Yuan Bao Shao Ye's courtyard to formally teach him martial arts. If there is nothing else, the little one will take his leave."

He held the boundaries between master and servant tightly, not giving Fang Jinshu any chance to make a mistake. That way, she wouldn't have a reason to drive him away.

After finishing his words, Zhao Xingzhou left.

Looking at his hurried retreating figure, Fang Jinshu sighed.

Well, that's it then.

At this moment, Xiaoyuanbao was still unaware that his good days were numbered.

This evening's drama of exposing an undercover traitor had the young boy excited, as he was part of it too.

He was putting on a show in front of Mu Shi, Xiao Yue, and the other maidservants, describing the events that had just transpired vividly and entertainingly.

After finishing, everyone clapped enthusiastically, showering Yuanbao with praise that seemed to cost nothing. The little guy's cheeks were flushed with excitement.

He threw himself into Mu's arms and coquettishly asked.

"Grandma, is Yuanbao strong"

Mu shi specially gave Mianzi a compliment, "Grandma's most capable grandson knows how to help his mother worry about catching the bad guy."

"When I grow up, I'll definitely be amazing."

Xiao Yuanbao happily rubbed against his grandmother's arms.

"Yuanbao is not only great at catching bad guys, but he's also super smart when it comes to reading. Nothing is too difficult for Yuanbao."

Xiaoyue remembered that the previous Madam had asked Yuanbao Young Master to practice calligraphy, but the young master hadn't finished it yet. Now he was bragging here.

"Young Master Yuan Bao, since you are so capable, why don't you hurry back with me and finish the unfinished calligraphy scroll"

"Tomorrow, young mistress will be examined."

When it comes to calligraphy, Yuan Bao's face pales; the smile that was just on his lips instantly drops.

Yuan Bao is smart, and no one in the family denies it.

But I just can't sit still and do one thing. The most unbearable thing is writing characters over and over again, but my mother has to check them.

Xiaoyue added another sentence, "If you don't finish writing it, tomorrow when you sleep in, the maidservant won't have a reason to explain to Madam on your behalf." wait until spring to be completed gradually.Fang Jinshu had everything planned out.
