"We need to call the police." Qi Yue said, walking around the box.
Ah Ru was scolding Yuan Bao and the man guarding the courtyard.
"Did you really sleep to death? Didn't you know that a thief came into the house and carried someone away?" she shouted with raised eyebrows.
Yuan Bao and the man lowered their heads and did not dare to express their anger. They were filled with self-blame.
After such a long time, the lady finally came back, and when she returned home, it turned out that this house was no different from the street, people were throwing money away casually... Ahem... That's not the point. It was that people were coming in and out casually without them noticing.
.
"Master, Master is not good."
Hu San's yelling could be heard outside the door.
Did something happen to the isolation hospital again?
Qi Yue came to the front, and Hu San also came to the yard.
"It's not good, Master." He gasped, sweating profusely, obviously coming in a hurry.
"What's wrong? Are you sick again?" Qi Yue asked hurriedly, reaching out and saying, "Aru, hurry up and get my medicine box, let's go."
"No...it's not..." Hu San held his chest and gasped.
"What's that? Hurry up and say it." A Ru shouted.
Hu San nodded, looked around and walked into the house.
"What's the emergency? Are you still going into the house to wait for tea?" Aru grabbed him and asked.
"No, no." Hu San waved his hands and smiled, "I'm not afraid of being heard."
"What's going on?" Qi Yuexiao asked.
From the look on Hu San's face, he knew it wasn't a serious emergency, so he felt relieved.
Hu San looked around, came closer, covered his mouth with his hand, and whispered something.
Ah Ru raised her hand and gave it to him.
"Speak nicely." she shouted.
Qi Yue laughed.
Hu San also chuckled.
The two of them laughed so hard that they felt uncomfortable and stared at them.
"Master, there is too much money." Hu San was too busy to laugh and whispered to Qi Yue.
What?
"It will be better to have more money suddenly." Hu San said again.
Qi Yue was stunned for a moment.
"Do you have more money there?" she asked.
also?
Hu San was also stunned for a moment.
"Master, do you have too many?" he asked.
Hu San's eyes lit up when he saw the two boxes of money in the backyard.
"Sure enough, Master is Master. I only have two bags there..." He shook his head and sighed.
"It seems that someone specially gave us money." Qi Yue said with a smile.
"It's not a special gift, this money is still our money." Hu San took out two money bags from his arms, "It's just my wages for others."
Wages?
Everyone's eyes fell on his hands.
"Those...manpower to deliver lime?" Qi Yue asked.
Hu San nodded.
At this time, the men driving horse-drawn carriages and donkey carts were running wildly along the road laughing.
"Go home!"
They waved the whips in their hands and slapped the car deck without a whip. There was a big knife hidden under the car deck, and they took it out and waved it.
At this moment, there is no image of being honest and hard-working at all. It is true that it is honest, but it needs to be followed by the word "sinister".
"Hey, big brother is here to pick us up." Someone shouted pointing forward.
There was a steep mountain ahead, and a group of people were rushing towards the mountain road. Four of them were carrying a sedan, and sitting on it was a big man with a full beard.
"Guan Qingniu!" Qi Yue read out the name, but looked confused, "Who is it?"
"It's the one where you open your chest and then tie it with wire," Chang Yuncheng said.
Qi Yue frowned and thought for a moment before realizing.
"That's the one who almost beat you to death after your brothers heard the instigation. He is a bandit." Chang Yuncheng said, while looking at the two boxes of silver still piled in the corner.
Turns out it's this guy...
He said that he felt that the manpower hired by Hu San to help in the isolation hospital these days looked a bit strange, but first of all, he was busy, and secondly, he saw that these people were really helping, so he didn't say anything.
Just let people pay attention secretly.
"Oh, then I am not collecting stolen money?" Qi Yue said, "Do I have to turn it over?"
Chang Yuncheng looked at this woman and couldn't tell what was going on in her mind.
"Okay, you hand it in, and by the way, the government will convict you of being a bandit, and maybe Guan Qingniu will bring someone to rob the prison or something to repay his kindness." He said.
Qi Yue glared at him and sighed.
"What are you doing here today? Why did I hear that you got caught in the rain?" she asked, looking at him.
Speaking of this, Chang Yuncheng was a little embarrassed.
He was originally filial to his father, pretending to be sick according to his wishes, but he didn't expect that Aunt Zhou's incident would happen before he even invited the doctor.
How can Dingxihou still think about meeting people now? He is hiding at home and thinking about nothing.
Look at the people in this family, the mother-in-law who wants to divorce her daughter-in-law, and the aunt who wants to kill people. How can a family like this have the face to ask someone to come back, and why do they come back? Are they going to be embarrassed together?
Seeing Chang Yuncheng's silence for a while, Qi Yue naturally knew what Ding Xihou was thinking now and smiled.
"So, is it because of deep love that one becomes crazy?" Chang Yuncheng suddenly asked.
Qi Yue was stunned for a moment.
"You mean Aunt Zhou?" she asked.
Chang Yuncheng did not deny it.
Qi Yue reached out and patted his arm.
"That's not true. That's paranoia." She said.
Chang Yuncheng looked at her and smiled.
Qi Yue pouted.
Chang Yuncheng couldn't bear to look away.
"You mean, the person in charge of Qing Niu saved that family?" Qi Yue asked again.
"Yes, Aunt Zhou bought a murderer to kill people, and she happened to be in charge of Qingniu's territory. The people in charge of Qingniu had already stepped in. Seeing that the family brought a lot of money, before they took action, the person who bought the murderer from Aunt Zhou did it.
, at first I thought it was some careless bad rule, so I had to teach them a lesson, but I didn’t expect to hear what they said about Dingxi Houfu, Mrs. Qi, Guan Qingniu, and all the subordinates had said that they would treat you as their own.
Sir, they kept him alive for questioning, and then they found out." Chang Yuncheng said.
Qi Yue laughed when she heard this.
"Me?" She pointed to her nose, "Have I become the leader of the bandits?"
At this time, they were sitting in the yard, and the sun was shining through the branches on the ground. The woman's smile was bright in the broken light and shadow.
Chang Yuncheng felt his heartbeat pounding as he looked at it, and was in a daze for a moment.
"Then they asked about it, so you kept the person and waited for the opportunity to give me a big gift?" Qi Yue continued, smiling, "This person is really interesting."
He smiled and didn't see Chang Yuncheng talking. When he looked up and saw that he was in a daze, he stopped smiling.
"Hi." She raised her chin.
Chang Yuncheng came back to his senses, blushed and turned his head.
"Finished?" Qi Yue asked.
Chang Yuncheng said.
"Say, it's done." He said.
"Is there anything else?" Qi Yue asked.
In fact, this is not a big deal, but I took the opportunity to take a look...
Chang Yuncheng looked around. The small courtyard was not as big as his own courtyard in the mansion...
"No more." He whispered.
Qi Yue looked at him without speaking.
Chang Yuncheng felt very uncomfortable when she looked at him. His ears felt hot, so he lowered his head and stomped on the ants on the ground.
Qi Yue was a little amused, so she simply took the book aside and read it. She wanted to see how long this kid could step on like this.
When the sky turned dark, Qi Yue walked out of the house and looked at Chang Yuncheng, who was still in the yard with his head lowered, feeling funny and angry.
"Hey." She stretched out her hand and knocked on the stone table, "You have trampled most of the ants to death, and the survivors have all gone home. You don't still want to dig ant holes and kill them all, do you?"
Only then did Chang Yuncheng stand up.
"Then, then I'm leaving." He said, lowered his head and left.
"I've been sitting here for a long time, and if I leave during dinner, will people say I'm stingy and can't bear to have a meal?" Qi Yue stopped him again and said with a glare.
Huh? Chang Yuncheng's mind was a little confused and he didn't react for a while.
"Your Majesty, the meal is ready, please come in." Aru said as he opened the curtain in the dining room.
Chang Yuncheng hesitated even more.
"This, this, is not good, I, I am eating at your place, people know it..." he stammered.
Qi Yue smiled and hit him on the shoulder.
"Do you know that you are alone now?" She smiled and said, "Come in quickly, am I still afraid of people gossiping? Haven't I been gossiped about enough?"
Yes, from the time he first entered the Dingxi Hou Mansion as a beggar to the time he left after being ordered to leave, there was no one in the city that didn't arouse a lot of discussion.
Chang Yuncheng lowered his head and stepped forward.
Four lamps were lit in the small room, and four simple dishes and one soup were placed on the dining table.
"It's not as good as what you eat at home. It's simple here." Qi Yue smiled and sat down first.
Chang Yuncheng hesitated and sat down opposite her.
"Master, my wife made it myself." Ah Hao held the chopsticks to him and said with a smile.
Chang Yuncheng couldn't help but his eyes lit up.
"It's just that while you were watching the ants, my wife went to cook." Ah Hao added with a smile.
Chang Yuncheng suddenly blushed again, then put away the dishes and lowered his head to hide it, but the more he tried to hold back the smile on his lips, the harder he couldn't help it.
Qi Yue served him a bowl of soup with her own hands.
"I've been getting angry these days, so I've made it lighter, and I don't dare to eat meat, so don't dislike the tofu soup," she said.
Chang Yuncheng hurriedly took it with both hands.
"Why would you dislike it?" He whispered, and after a moment's hesitation he boldly added, "I wish you could do it."
Qi Yue pursed her lips and smiled and sat down.
Chang Yuncheng saw that she was not displeased, and was very happy. He couldn't help but want to laugh, but he was also a little embarrassed.
Chang Yuncheng looked down at the soup in the bowl and remembered the first time Qi Yue made him a late-night snack, which was tofu soup. Later, he made it often, but he gave it to his mother. He only tasted it once or twice, and what he thought was
There will be plenty of opportunities to eat it in the future, but I didn’t expect that when I ate it again, it would already be...
"What are you thinking about again?"
When the pleasant voice sounded in his ears, Chang Yuncheng hurriedly put away his sourness, raised his head and smiled at her, and lowered his head to eat.
Qi Yue ate slowly here, occasionally picking up a chopstick and handing it to him.
"Try this," she said.
Chang Yuncheng's heart gradually calmed down, and the sourness on his lips faded away, turning into sweetness again. He lowered his head and ate in big mouthfuls. He thought that after eating so quickly, there would be no reason to stay anymore, so he hurriedly slowed down.
He ate one grain at a time, but he also thought that this would make the woman think that he disliked the food he cooked, so he speeded up.
Qi Yue watched the man tossing the bowl of rice faster, slower and faster, feeling funny at first and then a little sad.
"You taste good, from now on..." she said.
In the future? Chang Yuncheng stopped his chopsticks and looked at her nervously. Will there be no chance in the future?
There was a loud knock on the door.
Qi Yue stopped talking and looked outside.
"Madam, Mr. Huang is here." Aru came in and said.
Xiao Qiao? What are you doing here at this time?
"Invite him in." Qi Yue stood up and said.
Ah Ru smiled helplessly.
"The child refuses to come in and is at the door," she said.
Qi Yue shook his head.
"Okay, I'll go and invite him." She smiled, said to Chang Yuncheng, "Wait a moment," and walked out.
Chang Yuncheng put down his bowls and chopsticks and felt that his heartbeat returned to normal. He was a little happy but also a little regretful.

I'm sorry about that, I'm really ashamed, because I can't keep up with my emotions after one plot ends and enters the next, so I have to stop the double update for a while. I still owe fifteen chapters. When I get over it, I will continue to pay it back. No.
It's too long, just take it a few days and it'll be fine. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.*** (To be continued)
