Chapter 161 Xiao Sizhe Meets Xiao Siyu
Not long after Xiao Sizhe left the city, he heard his own voice say, "Young Master, be careful later, someone is following us."
Xiao Sizhe was shocked. What was going on? He had only just left the city and he was already being watched. Could it be that he had been watched while he was still in the city?
Xiao Qinian glanced at the silver box he had hidden, wondering if he should sacrifice his money to save his life if there were many people later.
"Young master, please protect yourself. I will deal with the person who is following you." The servant stopped the carriage and took out his personal weapon.
Standing in front of the carriage, he shouted loudly, "Who goes there? Come out now, or don't blame me for taking action."
After waiting for a long time without seeing anyone come out, the servant looked around and saw something moving behind the bushes not far away.
He said to Xiao Sizhe inside the carriage, "Young Master, don't come out of the carriage. I'll go check on you."
"I understand. Gu Lu, you should also be careful." Although Gu Lu is skilled, there is always a chance of making a mistake, so Xiao Sizhe was still a little worried.
Gu Lu carefully walked to the bushes with his sword in hand.
He flicked his sword at the bushes, and suddenly there was movement behind the bushes. Gu Lu raised his sword and attacked, and then he heard a familiar sound.
"Gu Lu, Gu Lu, don't do anything, it's me, it's me, hehe."
Looking down, Gu Lu saw Xiao Siyu emerging from the bushes with a silly grin on his face.
"Sixth Young Master? What are you doing here? Why are you following us?" Gu Lu was very puzzled. Shouldn't the Sixth Young Master be in Qianyuan County? Why would he be following them?
Although that's what she thought, she had already sheathed her sword.
"Hehe, I'm looking for my second brother." Xiao Siyu said somewhat guiltily.
"Gu Lu, what's wrong?" Xiao Sizhe was inside the carriage and hadn't heard any fighting sounds, but he seemed to have heard Gu Lu talking to someone, so he got out of the carriage.
"Young Master." Gu Lu returned to the carriage when he heard Xiao Sizhe call him.
Xiao Siyu followed behind.
At this moment, Xiao Sizhe also saw Xiao Siyu, who should have been in Qianyuan County.
Xiao Sizhe didn't say anything, but just stared seriously at Xiao Siyu.
Xiao Siyu felt even more guilty under Xiao Sizhe's gaze, and said awkwardly, "Second brother, you... don't be angry, I just want to travel with you."
Xiao Sizhe remained silent, and Xiao Siyu grew anxious and quickly explained, "Second brother, don't worry, I've already told Father and Mother."
Xiao Siyu's voice became much softer when he said this.
Xiao Sizhe clearly didn't believe him. If he really had told him, why would he have secretly followed him? Besides, if he really wanted to travel with him, why didn't he say so before he left?
"Hmph, tell the truth." Xiao Sizhe snorted coldly, his voice reaching Xiao Siyu's ears in a chilling tone.
Seeing Xiao Sizhe's unpleasant expression, Xiao Siyu could only stammer, "Um, Second Brother, I left a letter."
After speaking, he glanced at Xiao Sizhe, and sure enough, Xiao Sizhe's expression became even more unpleasant.
"Gu Lu, take him back to me." Xiao Sizhe didn't say anything more to Xiao Siyue, but directly ordered Gu Lu.
"No, Second Brother, please let me stay. I really want to travel." Xiao Siyu became anxious as soon as he heard this. He had secretly come out and had only just left the county town. How could he go back?
Besides, if he went back now, his father would definitely beat him up, so he couldn't go back.
"Sixth Young Master, come back with me." Gu Lu didn't care about Xiao Siyu; he only obeyed Xiao Sizhe's orders.
When Xiao Siyu heard Gu Lu trying to pull him away, he grabbed Xiao Sizhe first: "Brother, just let me come along. My father will definitely agree, otherwise he would have already sent people to arrest me and take me back."
That's true. If Xiao Qinian really didn't want Xiao Siyu to go out, he would have sent people here by now.
However, Xiao Sizhe still didn't want to let Xiao Siyu get away with it so easily. Xiao Siyu was smart, but he was too impulsive and acted without considering the consequences.
Xiao Sizhe glanced at Xiao Siyu and saw that he was carrying only a bundle on his back and nothing else.
"Are you planning to travel with this baggage all by yourself?"
"Hehe, second brother, I even rode a horse." Xiao Siyu knew that his second brother had agreed, and immediately put on a smiling face.
Where's the horse?
“It’s tied to a tree behind us,” he said. He had tied the horse to a tree after seeing Xiao Sizhe’s carriage stop, and then secretly hid it.
"Go and bring the horse over."
"Hey, Second Brother, wait for me, I'm coming right now." Xiao Siyu excitedly walked behind the bushes.
A short while later, Xiao Siyu led a white horse over.
After glancing at it, Xiao Sizhe got into the carriage.
"Gu Lu, let's continue our journey."
"Yes," Gu Lu replied, ignoring Xiao Siyu as he got into the carriage and picked up the whip to start driving.
Seeing that neither of them paid any attention to him, Xiao Siyu could only silently mount his horse and follow behind the carriage.
After traveling for a while, the carriage stopped again.
Xiao Siyu was still somewhat puzzled by this.
Seeing Xiao Sizhe get off the carriage, he asked, "Second Brother, why aren't we moving?"
Xiao Sizhe ignored him, chose a relatively clean patch of grass, and sat down.
Gu Lu took some dry food and water from the carriage and handed them to Xiao Sizhe, then took some for himself as well.
Xiao Siyu then realized that it was lunchtime, and he was starting to feel a little hungry.
He felt a little aggrieved, seeing that neither of them seemed inclined to give him any food.
She stared longingly at Xiao Sizhe.
Xiao Sizhe simply ate the dry food in his hand, showing no intention of giving any to Xiao Siyu.
After waiting for a long time, Xiao Siyu saw that Xiao Sizhe was about to finish eating, so he could only say, "Second Brother, I'm hungry too."
"Oh," Xiao Sizhe simply uttered a single word, seemingly unconcerned.
"Second brother, could you give me some dry rations too?" Xiao Siyu looked at Xiao Sizhe expectantly.
"I didn't prepare one for you. Didn't you prepare one for yourself?" Xiao Sizhe said after finishing the last bite of his pancake.
However, the tone was very casual, not at all like a question.
"Second brother, I only brought silver and a travel permit." Xiao Siyu had no idea about these things; he was only thinking about chasing Xiao Sizhe and thought that bringing silver would be enough.
“Since that’s the case…” Xiao Sizhe paused deliberately at this point.
Xiao Siyu was overjoyed, thinking that Xiao Sizhe was going to give him some food.
"Then let them go hungry."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Siyu felt as if he had been struck by lightning; his second brother actually wanted him to go hungry.
"Huh? Second brother, are you really not going to give me any rations?" Xiao Siyu was still somewhat unwilling.
“Of course, when you’re traveling, you have to bring your own food. Since you’re going on a trip, why didn’t you bring any food? We don’t have any more than I do.” Xiao Sizhe saw Xiao Siyu’s disappointed face and a hint of a smile flashed in his eyes.
If he doesn't teach Xiao Siyu a lesson, Xiao Siyu will never know how treacherous people can be, nor will he know that traveling is not the same as going out for leisure.
