Good luck every time

Li Ruyi spoke, and although Li Er felt a little unwilling, he would not refuse.

When they go out, Li Ruyi always keeps her word and Li Er never interrupts her, and today is no exception.

After hearing this, the butler subconsciously glanced at Li Ershi, somewhat surprised.

It is not ridiculous for a person to be ignorant, but it is a bit scary if he has desires in his heart but suppresses them for various reasons!

What's more, this is an opportunity that they should have enjoyed just by talking, but both of them were able to remain true to themselves, which shows their character.

Of course, besides his nature, Li Ruyi also released a sincerity.

She saved Zhao Qi under certain conditions, but the conditions were not harsh and she would not ask for an exorbitant price beyond her current position.

The butler also understood and smiled kindly.

"It is indeed inconvenient for us to stay longer. However, if the two heroes save people and then leave after having a meal, it would seem that our Zhao family is not hospitable. If there is enough time, why not let them stay in the city for a few days? We can also arrange for someone to take you around and see the world, which is considered to be a way for us to fulfill our hospitality as hosts."

After hearing this, Li Ruyi still refused.

"No, I really have something important to attend to. Besides, we will come to the capital city in a while. At that time, I might come to pay a visit to Mr. Zhao. It will be more appropriate to discuss the tour then."

It is normal for Li Ruyi to want to ask about the situation of the person he rescued after saving him.

The butler listened patiently and analyzed Li Ruyi's words several times in his mind, but his facial expression did not change at all, and even his smile was still as friendly.

But Li Ruyi knew that this man didn't smile often. When he frowned, he looked very serious. He always had an aura of majesty without even getting angry, and even his walking style was like clouds and wind.

"In that case, we won't force you to stay here any longer. However, we have prepared some small gifts for you. I hope you won't dislike them!"

Li Ruyi said politely.

"How dare you!"

The butler then had someone take them to dinner. While eating, Li Er's eyes almost fell out when he looked at the table full of dishes.

The butler knew the identities of the two men and did not try to embarrass them.

The two sat down and started eating.

The table was filled with fish and meat, but there were not many delicate and light dishes, only two kinds of vegetables that were hard to find at this time of year.

Unfortunately, Li Ruyi and Li Er both eat meat, and after they finished their meal, only the two plates of vegetables were left.

The visitor cleared the food from the table, and the butler appeared immediately.

He had several boxes of things brought over.

The box was quite heavy, so Li Ruyi didn't open it. Anyway, the Zhao family wouldn't take out anything too embarrassing!

She symbolically declined.

"This is too much. Our donkey cart can't pull anything that heavy."

After hearing this, the butler immediately said.

"That's fine. We have a few carriages at home that we don't use very often. When Miss Li leaves, she can just take one."

Li Ruyi: …

"I'm sorry, but the donkey I drove here has grown up with me and I have no intention of selling it. Now that I have a carriage, I don't know how to take it back."

The butler heard this and nodded.

"It is my fault that I was not thoughtful enough to overlook how loyal Miss Li is. Well, we have a big cart at home, and you two can put the donkey on it."

Li Ruyi: …

Let a donkey ride in a carriage?

After the butler finished speaking, he made a conclusion.

"If you two have no other requests, then we'll settle it!"

Li Ruyi smiled helplessly.

"Originally, saving people is just a warrior's duty, but I didn't expect that we would have to take things from others. This makes us seem a little utilitarian!"

The housekeeper understood what Li Ruyi meant. He still wanted a good reputation.

"If Miss Li doesn't accept it, then of course your reputation will be saved, but it will also hurt the reputation of our Zhao family. We are doing this for our own sake, but it is embarrassing for Miss Li!"

Li Ruyi: …

This was the first time in her two lifetimes that a housekeeper had persuaded her to accept a gift in such a friendly manner.

If it were before, she might have thought she would be very happy!

But at the moment, she didn't feel so relieved.

There is always a feeling of loss.

Although she had a terrible life in her previous life, every choice she made led her to a deeper abyss.

But she also tried her best.

How much is a human life worth?

To Li Ruyi, it was just an object to be given to others casually, not as good as an inkstone, and not as good as a treasure vase.

But if it were Zhao Qi, it could bring so many benefits to Li Ruyi.

Even those who looked down on her in the previous life now had to say something soft to save her face.

Is this meant for her?

This was said for the whole world to hear, but it was for Zhao Qi.

Li Ruyi couldn't enjoy this kind of flattery with any pleasure.

To her, her efforts were far more important than Zhao Qi.

Li Ruyi thought about it and finally refused.

"This... is a generous gesture from the head steward. As a junior, I shouldn't refuse it. However, I don't want to be so ostentatious. The carriage is good, but I feel more at ease driving my donkey cart."

The butler showed a rare stunned expression, but it only flashed for a moment and he quickly calmed down.

"Then let's do as Miss Li said. However, we don't need the carriage. The two horses driving the carriage are quite good. You two can take them back. It will be much more convenient for you to go to the capital in the future."

A journey that would take two days on a donkey cart would only take half a day on horseback.

Going back and forth also became an easy task.

"You can't refuse this time! Otherwise, I really can't explain myself."

After saying that, he gave orders to the people around him.

"Go to the stable and take out the two horses at the back. Let Miss Li and Master Li take them away later."

The people around the butler immediately agreed and turned around and left quickly.

Li Ruyi sighed when he saw this.

"It's a waste of money for you!"

The butler laughed.

"Miss Li is the lifesaver of our eldest son. She is the benefactor of our Zhao family. No matter how we treat her, it is not excessive."

"If you arrive in the city in a few days, you must come to my house."

When it comes to visiting, Li Ruyi nodded without any hesitation.

"Will do!"

The butler immediately arranged for people to load the car, and also arranged for people to help Li Ruyi drive the car.

The two horses were saddled and led in front of Li Ruyi and Li Er.

Li Er was very excited.

Li Ruyi also showed an appreciative expression.

The horses that the butler gave them were all good horses. Although they were not as good as any precious breeds, they were still good horses that could be worth hundreds of taels of silver in the horse market.

With Li Ruyi's own abilities, he might not be unable to afford it in the future.

However, such a huge expense is indeed not small, and Li Ruyi dare not hope to do so in the short term.

I didn't expect that in the end I would benefit from Zhao Qi's help.
