C188 A Toast to You

At this point, Young Master Yang stole a glance at Du Qi. He saw that Du Qi didn't show any signs of displeasure towards the conversation between him and Ma Yuxiao. He did not have the intention to continue, so he said generously, "Now that we know that young lady is in a difficult situation and does not know about her feelings, how can we eat and drink in peace? Therefore, Miss, no matter what, please tell us the truth. We will definitely do our best to help you!"

Ma Yuxiao seemed to be deep in thought. After a long time, she sighed, "Young master's righteous envoy, this young lady is extremely grateful. Initially, this young lady had some misgivings and did not dare to say it out loud. However, after hearing what young master said, she had no choice but to say it."

Young Master Yang said with relief, "You do not have to worry about it. Please say it clearly!"

Ma Yuxiao said, "This young lady originally escaped from the Zhang Province and was ambushed and killed many times by bandits and robbers. When I was poor and broke down, I met a kind person who saved me and rented a boat for me on my way. "And..." He hired a few bodyguards and maids to follow him. Although there was no need to worry about bandits chasing after him, however, the little girl's pestering had long run out and she had nothing on her body. Now, she was unable to maintain the daily expenses of the ship. Not to mention giving rewards to the bodyguards and maids. Because of this, the little girl was deeply terrified. Helpless, she could only invite the two young masters to gather here and say goodbye to them at the same time. The little girl is preparing to get off the boat alone at the next ferry. Everything on the boat will be left to the two young masters."

Du Qi hastily shouted," No! Miss, you must not get off the boat, and you don't have to worry about it. We have everything! Elder Ren, how much silver do we have left? "

Ren Dongming said, "Young master, we came out this time with a lot of money, but we have spent almost all of it this year. We only have two hundred and thirty taels of silver left."

Du Qi cried out involuntarily, "What? Only this much?"

Ren Dongming said helplessly, "Only this much!"

Du Qi said, "How about this, Elder Ren, take two hundred taels of silver and give this lady an emergency. Along the way, we tighten our hands a little and think of a way to get money in the future."

Ren Dongming seemed to be very reluctant to reply, "Yes, Young Master!" As he spoke, he tottered in his bosom for a long time before he took out two hundred taels of silver. He stood up and handed it to Xiangdong, who was still standing by the door.

Du Qi said, "A little token of appreciation. I hope you will accept it. If it is not enough, I will accompany you to abandon the ship and board the shore!"

As soon as Du Qi finished speaking, Ma Yuxiao did not have the time to speak. Suddenly, a long laugh sounded. Young Master Yang said proudly, "How can these few pieces of silver be worth looking at? With me around, how can I let a peerless beauty like Miss go through the hardships of tiredness and running around? Steward Chen, go and bring my white iron chest over."

Steward Chen was stunned for a moment, then he seemed to be extremely unwilling to get up and said," Yes, Young Master! " After saying that, Steward Chen turned around and walked out of the hall, obviously carrying the box.

Ma Yuxiao said, "This young master only has a little silver taels. This trip to the capital is not long enough. How would this little girl dare to use young master's silver taels? Please take it back, young master! [You don't need to trouble yourself. Think about it, we are all outsiders.] Who would have so much money?"

Du Qi said, "I am Du Qi. Please don't take it to heart. At most, you can stay at the next ferry for a while. I will find a way to borrow some money."

Young Master Yang said," Why is it so troublesome? Miss, don't worry. I, Yang Yinglong, may not have other things, but I still have some gold and silver. Coincidentally, I brought some with me this time. I can give you an emergency."

Ma Yuxiao said, "No matter what, based on Young Master Yang's intentions, this little girl also wants to give you another toast!"

Yang Yinglong saw the beauty toast to him alone twice and could not help but be overjoyed. He hurriedly raised his wine glass and was about to swallow the wine in it when he saw the apricot yellow curtain swing. A pair of delicate and exquisite emerald-green embroidered shoes alternately moved over under the curtain.

The shoes gently stepped on the ground as if they were stepping on Yang Yinglong's heart. Yang Yinglong suddenly felt his heart tighten and instantly stopped all movements. He stared at the pair of moving embroidered shoes in shock. Could it be that the beauty was grateful to him? Could it be that her original intention of not meeting them was to come out and meet them?

The curtain of the door was lifted and the first thing that entered their eyes were two slender emerald-green pants. They were swaying continuously as his master walked, faintly displaying the elegant lines of his master's straight and slender jade legs. Before Yang Yinglong could react, Ma Yuxiao had already crawled out of the curtain. She was wearing a short skirt with jade green silk threads, with a similar colored silk thread tied loosely around her waist. It made her originally slender body appear even more slender.

Yang Yinglong saw that it was indeed a beauty who had graced him with her arrival, and could not help but be overjoyed. When he saw her swaying in the wind, he suddenly felt pity for her. He couldn't help but want to do everything he could to protect her, protect her, and love her. While thinking about it, Yang Yinglong subconsciously looked at Ma Yuxiao's head. Suddenly, he was stunned. He saw Ma Yuxiao wearing a large emerald-green roof hat. A veil of the same color hung down from the brim of the hat, covering her delicate face. It made it so that no one could see her clearly. Seeing this, Yang Yinglong could not help but be greatly disappointed.

But seeing Ma Yuxiao approaching, Yang Yinglong hurriedly stood up. He suddenly realized that through the veil, he could vaguely see the beautiful outline of Ma Yuxiao's face and her sparkling eyes. He suddenly felt that he was looking at the flowers in the fog, and the moon was in the water, hazy and mysterious. Compared to seeing her beautiful face directly, it made his imagination run wild. He could not help but be a little stunned. At the same time, a desire arose. He wished that he could take off her hat immediately. It was so that he could see her clearly at a glance, but there were various reasons behind it. He finally forced himself to endure it.

Ma Yuxiao came to a stop three steps away from him and said leisurely, "In order to thank Young Master Yang for his intention to help, I would like to propose another toast to Young Master Yang!"

Hearing her beautiful and moving voice, Yang Yinglong suddenly felt confused. He subconsciously clinked glasses with Ma Yuxiao. The two glasses clinked and made a clear sound. Yang Yinglong was immediately jolted awake and saw that Ma Yuxiao was wearing a pair of thin silk gloves that were the same color as her clothes. He could not help but be startled when he saw Ma Yuxiao raise the wine glass. He hurriedly calmed his mind and revealed a smile that he thought was the most attractive. He said coolly, "Cheers!" As he spoke, he raised his neck and took the lead to swallow the wine in the cup.

Ma Yuxiao raised the wine cup and lifted the corner of the veil, revealing a round chin. She brought the wine cup closer to the dark red and exquisite lips and took a small sip. "Thank you, Young Master Yang!" After saying that, without waiting for Yang Yinglong to say anything, he turned around and walked towards Du Qi as if he was fleeing.

Yang Yinglong suddenly saw that Ma Yuxiao's skin was smooth and sparkling, and her short chin was perfectly curved. Her dark red lips made people excited, but in an instant, all of this was covered by the green veil, making people feel attached to her.
