On the surface, my granddaughter was obedient, but she was obviously eating the meal absent-mindedly. Her mind wandered frequently and she couldn't even pull her back.
The old man finally figured it out. When she was done, he smiled and said, "I'll drink two more cups. If you have anything to do, go back first."
What can happen to someone who is about to get married? But Wen Xin took the opportunity to say goodbye.
It can be seen that my mind is no longer here.
The tall and thin figure of the housekeeper Wen Kui appeared at the door and bowed to see him off.
Wen Miao, who was at the dinner table, said: "Quizi, bring me some bowls and chopsticks and have a drink with me."
The gray-haired Wen Kui looked back, then walked in, took a set of dishes from the dining rack on the side, sat next to Wen Miao, started to help Wen Miao pour the wine, and then poured it for himself, and then
Raise your glass, "Sir, I respect you."
Wen Miao raised his glass and clinked it with him, drank it in one gulp, put down the glass and sighed: "The girl has grown up and has her own thoughts. She starts to hide things from me. Normally, if this spiritual pet is given to someone else to raise, there will be a lot of things at the dinner table.
Tell me this old man with a lot of laughter, what happened today?"
Wen Kui poured wine for him again, "Maybe I think you already know."
Wen Miao shook her head, not quite agreeing with this statement, "She grew up in an environment where she wouldn't worry too much about one thing... Is there anything else besides giving away spiritual pets today?"
“Miss San is just going back and forth on this matter today.”
“Didn’t you say that you want to recruit the servant who raises the spiritual pet into the inner courtyard to help raise it?”
"I'm afraid this won't work. According to the rules of the family, we won't want this person."
“Can’t we make an exception?”
"Master, no matter whether it is overt or covert, we will not accept anyone who approaches our family. If we make an exception, I am afraid we will have to mobilize some energy to conduct a rigorous investigation. If we really meet someone who is interested, the results of the investigation may not be true.
,Are you sure you want to make an exception?"
“People have already started to have contact with the girl, so let’s check it out.”
“Normal investigation has been launched secretly.”
“Check in detail.”
“Sir, do you suspect that there is something wrong with this servant?”
"I said, she is not easily worried about external things. Maybe it is because of people, and she is afraid that people's hearts are unpredictable."
"Understood." Butler Wen Kui agreed, but hesitated a little, "Sir, the third lady and the others may not know how to do it. How can spiritual pets be raised by others? Why don't you stop them?"
What he means is that by blocking the communication between the spiritual pet and the servant, wouldn’t it relieve some worries?
Wen Miao: "Kui Zi, this family is so big, with so many people, and so many things. It's not appropriate to try to control everyone and everything. There will inevitably be some discord. If it's not necessary, just stand aside and watch the fun.
Yeah, why don't you just relax a little bit? They don't understand, but there are people who understand, let them handle it by themselves, just have fun, the sky won't fall."
“Yes.” Wen Kui nodded, this time he knew what he was talking about.
Zongyuan.
It was getting dark, and Coyotito woke up, ran to the warehouse again, threw himself into the iron pot and started eating.
“Isn’t this foodie a spiritual pet but a pig?”
Yu Qing, who folded his arms behind his head, leaned back on the chair, and sat in the yard looking at the moon, muttered, "Don't worry about it, just let it go." This way, the little dog is at ease, and so is he.
After the little puppy finished eating, he was so full that he staggered out with his big belly that almost touched the ground. When he was crossing the drainage ditch, he did not jump over because of his big belly and fell down. Yu Qing looked on and did not help him.
I watched it struggle to climb up with a lot of effort.
Panting heavily and looking very tired, he ran to Yu Qing’s feet and lay down on his side, rubbing his head against Yu Qing’s ankles from time to time.
"I'm so dirty, don't touch me." Yu Qing kicked the little dog, who was covered in food, and rolled him over.
The little dog that rolled around immediately stopped moving, looking like I was dead. Then he quietly turned around and found that Yu Qing really ignored him and looked straight at the moon. He also looked at the moon.
, and then I lay there like a corpse and watched the moon.
Having slept enough during the day, I can’t sleep now. It’s more comfortable to lie down and digest food. Occasionally, I wag my tail and lick the taste of food on my lips.
Feeling peaceful and safe, Big Head also crawled out of Yu Qing's sleeves and flew around the yard several times.
Zoozi seemed to have noticed it, and suddenly raised his head, climbed up, and followed the big head flying around in circles.
The big head landed on the eaves, and Coyotito also quietly touched the eaves. Then he sat down and squatted on the ground, staring at the big head, as if he was preparing to hunt.
The big head was motionless on the eaves, looking down, and the little dog was sitting on the ground, looking up motionless.
“I’m so full after eating.” Yu Qing cursed.
The bright moon changed its shape and position in the night, and when it reached the middle of Xu Shi, Yu Qing became a little unable to sit still.
Datou and Xiaozizi were still motionless, like sculptures, showing no flaws. It felt like they were in a confrontation. Yu Qing didn't know what the hell these two guys were doing. It was estimated that no one would come again, so he got up.
The big head on the eaves immediately flew over and got into Yu Qing's sleeve. Coyotito also ran over immediately, but Yu Qing grabbed the skin by the back of his neck and carried him away.
The little puppy was scratching his four paws to scratch the sleeve where his big head was stuck.
Entering the bedroom, Yu Qing used a rope to tie up Coyotito's mouth, as well as its limbs. He threw the whimpering Coyotito into an iron cage and locked it up to avoid tampering.
Make some noise to attract outsiders.
Took the prepared things, left the bedroom, placed a stone on the courtyard wall under the eaves, rested a dead branch at the foot of the door, and then quietly opened the door bolt.
Go to the warehouse again, fly to a pile of debris, open the tunnel entrance the old way, go into the tunnel and be quiet for a long time, then light up the oil lamp and move forward.
This time, he felt as if he was on a familiar road, walking quickly on the known route, silently counting the steps in his mind.
When he encountered a fork in the road, he immediately took out paper and charcoal, drew a simple route, recorded the number of steps, and then continued forward.
Nanzhu and Mu Aotie had already warned him, saying that there might be murder hidden in the tunnel, and told him not to come down again, but he still couldn't help coming down, partly because he wanted to understand the tunnel route map, and partly because he was thinking about what was in his mind.
That beautiful figure.
The first point I touched in the tunnel was the exit blocked by the rockery, and I quietly lay down in the gap to peek out.
I saw the pavilion, but there was no shadow in the pavilion, not even a human figure, and a lantern was dimly lit.
There is no one and only a lamp. I don’t know if it’s because the little dog is kept in his place.
He lay there waiting quietly. Actually, he had no other thoughts. He just wanted to take a look at Wen Xin. Even just one look would be satisfying.
Only at this time could he stare at Wen Xin unscrupulously.
After waiting for almost half an hour, Wen Xin could not come out. He estimated that he was going to rest and would not come out again. Just when he was full of regrets and was about to evacuate, two people suddenly came outside.
The man is obviously dressed as a master and a servant.
The well-dressed young man entered the pavilion and stood waiting with his hands folded, while the servants waited outside the pavilion and stood with their hands folded.
Some servants from Yuyuan have gone to the study room and knocked on the door to make an announcement.
Soon, Wen Xin and Xiao Hong appeared one after another and walked quickly towards this side.
Yu Qing's eyes were filled with joy when he saw Wen Xin's appearance. But when he saw Wen Xin's happy face, and then looked at the young man in the pavilion, his eyes were suspicious again.
I secretly murmured in my heart, who is this person? Is he Wen Xin’s fiancé? Are you so happy to see your fiancé? The man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried. Meeting each other so late at night is really shameless.
Wen Xin looked happy to welcome guests, which made Yu Qing feel sour in his heart.
Wen Xin, who entered the pavilion, smiled and said, "Fifth brother, you are finally back."
Yu Qing was stunned when he heard this title. Is this the fifth young master?
He immediately stared at the young man and looked at him carefully. If he looked at it like this, he found that he looked a bit familiar. He might have seen him in the capital.
Seeing that the person meeting at the night was not his lover, he finally felt at ease.
Hearing this, the man standing with his hands behind his hands sighed and said, "Xin'er summons me, how dare I not come?"
Wen Xin came closer and probably smelled the smell of alcohol. He immediately raised his sleeves to cover his nose and said, "It smells so strong. Fifth brother, you drank a lot."
"I can't help myself." Hearing this, An slightly smiled bitterly and waved his hands not to say anything about it. "I just went to say hello to grandpa. Grandpa asked me to come over to see you and said that you wanted to see me for something. What's the matter?"
Wen Xin smiled sweetly and said, "I have received such a good thing, so naturally I can't hide it in front of my fifth brother."
Wen Yanan: "Oh, what good thing can make Xin'er so happy?"
Wen Xin: "The head of Qinglian Mountain gave me a spiritual pet, named Zilong, which was my name. Please watch it with my fifth brother."
"Uh..." Wen Yanan was stunned for a moment, thinking it was nothing, and said oh, raised his hand and said: "Okay, it's already here, then pull it out and show it to me."
Wen Xin: "Not here, I sent it to the Xizayuan to find someone to feed it. It's getting late now, how about asking the fifth brother to go with me tomorrow morning?"
"This..." Hearing this, An looked troubled and said hesitantly: "Xin'er, you know, I just came back and there were endless gifts everywhere. I visited five or six houses today, and I have to continue running tomorrow.
I may not have time in the morning."
Wen Xin raised her hand and pinched it, saying, "It won't take long, just a little bit of time will be enough. It won't delay Fifth Brother for too long."
Hearing this, An An was silent, thinking that this was the apple of his grandfather's eye, and finally sighed: "Okay, after breakfast tomorrow morning, I'll come find you, and after seeing your treasure, I'll go out again, how about that?"
Wen Xin nodded excitedly, "Well, just follow Fifth Brother's advice."
"Okay, I'm tired. My parents may still be waiting for me. You should rest early. I'll go back first." Wen Yanan dropped the words and left.
Wen Xin quickly followed. After hearing the words, Anrang didn't need to send it away, but she still sent it to the door.
After returning, she did not rest and went to the study again.
Yu Qing, who was lying in the gap between the rockery and watching, slowly turned around and was a little dumbfounded. What the hell? Wen Yanan was going to the junkyard to see Coyotito.
He had no impression of Wen Yan'an and wouldn't recognize him when he saw him. However, Wen Yan'an might not recognize him when he saw him. Who told him that he was the Tanhua Lang and the Hui Yuan with perfect scores in the four subjects?
He is convinced by this woman Wen Xin. It's good. He said he didn't have time, so why did he drag her to the yard? It's not like he's looking for trouble.
