Luo Chen was a little puzzled. Logically speaking, Butler Wei should be soaking in the gentle grave at this time. At the worst, he should be cuddling up with his wife, talking about love and so on.
But what now...
"Although I don't know what the situation is, based on my many years of experience, you must not enter through the front entrance at this time."
Yagyu said seriously.
Luo Chen nodded in agreement: "Okay, I remember that the back door shouldn't be closed at this time. If that doesn't work, we'll climb over the wall and get in."
Luo Chen held Yinyin in one hand. As he said this, he made a silent gesture towards Yinyin.
Yinyin wrapped her hands around Luo Chen's neck and nodded obediently.
At this time, the sky was getting dark. Butler Wei was sitting on the stone platform and looking ahead. He was covering his cheek with one hand, grinning in pain, and holding a broken broom in his other hand. His eyes were spitting fire.
, like a door god, seemed to be waiting for something, gritting his teeth in anger.
"Back?"
As soon as the two of them entered the back gate, there was a cold sound in the courtyard. The two of them were startled. After seeing that it was Zhong Xian'er, they breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sister Xian'er, what's wrong with Butler Wei? How can your old face be so swollen?"
Luo Chen was suspicious. Yinyin poked her little head out of Luo Chen's arms and blinked her big watery eyes curiously. Zhong Xianer's eyes lit up, she was obviously attracted by the cuteness.
"Huh? Xiao Luochen, what is this?"
"Fairy sister?"
Yinyin's little mouth is very sweet, and one sentence makes Zhong Xianer's heart elated.
"What are you talking about? Why don't you come in and eat quickly? Huh?"
While they were talking, Li Ruotong and Zhong Li also came over. When the two women saw Yin Yin in Luo Chen's arms, they were also a little cute.
Luo Chen looked embarrassed and didn't know how to explain it. He stood there awkwardly holding Yinyin.
"Okay, don't leave Chu here for now. It's cold outside. Don't freeze the child. Come in and eat first."
Li Ruotong was the first to break the awkward atmosphere. Seeing that Yinyin was wearing a shabby red coat, she also guessed something.
"I'll do it."
Li Ruotong stretched out his hand to hug Luo Chen, but Yinyin hugged Luo Chen's neck tightly, her big eyes were wary, and she showed resistance.
Li Ruotong was stunned for a moment, then had no choice but to retract his hand.
In the room, Luo Chen hugged Yinyin, and Zhong Li handed the moistened towel to Luo Chen. Yinyin was very afraid of strangers and didn't look for anyone except Luo Chen.
After the meal, Yinyin fell asleep in Luo Chen's arms, but even though she fell asleep, her little hands were still tightly wrapped around Luo Chen's neck.
"Tell me, what is going on?"
It's not the fault of the three women for asking, it's just that these two guys just gave Manager Wei a hard time, and just after they went out for a while, they brought back a little girl. It would be really strange if the three women didn't ask questions.
Under the questioning of the three women, Luo Chen had no choice but to explain everything, including what he had briefly said before in Wuling County. The three women were surprised at first, and then a trace of anger flashed across their faces, especially when they saw
When she saw the bruises and purple wounds on Yinyin's arms, she became even more furious.
Especially Li Ruotong, he almost drew his sword on the spot.
"Why don't you just deal with such a scumbag? Keeping him alive would be a disaster!"
Li Ruotong was very angry and Liu Sheng was sweating. The eldest son of the Liu family in the majestic city actually started to stutter when faced with the oppression of the three women: "Then...then we can't kill people in the street, right? Can't we abolish him?"
Sure enough, when this woman gets angry, men can't compare to her.
"Forget it, but you finally did something serious this time, but you can take care of it yourself, Butler Wei."
"What happened to Manager Wei?"
Both of them were very curious.
"What do you think? You have found a wife for Steward Wei out of nowhere. You are really out of your mind. Now that Steward Wei has come out with harsh words, this matter will never end."
Zhong Xian'er was speechless as she looked at the two of them, one of them older than the other. It seemed that Manager Wei was really angry this time.
"Well, Grandpa Wei is really angry. No matter what, someone has to resist."
With that said, Zhong Li winked at Luo Chen. Luo Chen understood and straightened his face. He looked at Liu Sheng seriously and said, "Brother, I'll excuse you."
As he spoke, he lowered his head and looked at the sleeping Yin Yin, revealing a hint of helplessness: "It's all helpless!"
At this time, Yagyu finally realized that something was not quite right. What was the situation? What did this mean?
"Well, what Luo Chen said is right. In that case, you can take it all together. This matter is probably your idea anyway, so don't involve Luo Chen."
When Zhong Xian'er spoke, Liu Sheng was completely dumbfounded. God knows, this idea really wasn't his own.
"Go ahead, be good."
"Can I... not be so cruel? Xian'er, how about..."
"Ahem... you guys chat, I'll take Yinyin back to the room to sleep first, and then, Brother Sheng, it's all your fault."
Luo Chen patted Liu Sheng on the shoulder and left the house without looking back.
"I'll clean up the dishes."
Li Ruotong suppressed a smile and spoke. She finally realized that she might have really misunderstood him about what happened last time.
"I'll help sister Ruotong clean up."
Zhong Li's eyes curled up with crescent moons, and he went to help with a smile.
"I'm going to prepare some clean coat pieces and make a new coat for Yinyin."
Saying this, he ruthlessly left Yagyu alone and faced the furious Manager Wei alone.
Manager Wei usually seemed amiable, but only Zhong Li and Zhong Xianer knew that if the old man lost his temper, in addition to his grandfather, even his own father would be criticized.
Luo Chen returned to the room with the sleeping Yinyin in his arms. The little girl was sleeping very deeply, but her sleeping posture was not that good-looking. Although the little girl was only six years old, she was definitely a little evildoer. Luo Chen Fei
After using a lot of strength, he carefully pulled the little girl off his neck.
After a while, Li Ruotong and Zhong Li cautiously pushed open the door from outside the room. Luo Chen made a silent gesture and whispered: "What's wrong with that guy Yagyu?"
When this was mentioned, the two women couldn't help but almost laughed out loud.
"Grandpa Wei has such a bad temper."
Zhong Li patted his chest and exaggerated.
"I didn't expect Manager Wei to be so angry."
Li Ruotong was also a little surprised.
"That is, although on the surface Grandpa Wei was Grandpa's war servant back then, that was not the case. It is said that Grandpa Wei was seriously injured back then, and it was Grandpa who rescued him back then. From then on, Grandpa Wei stayed in our Zhong family.
In fact, Grandpa Wei is very mysterious. Before his father passed away, he told him more than once that he must not treat Grandpa Wei as a servant. In fact, if Grandpa Wei had not been around these years, the huge Zhong family would have been annexed by the elder.
.”
Mentioning the past, Zhong Li felt a little sad.
Li Ruotong was silent. Manager Wei of the Zhong family was indeed mysterious. After all, Liu Sheng was also the eldest son of the Liu family in the imperial city. No matter how angry he was, he was still a servant. But before, Manager Wei didn't look like a servant at all.
Pointing at Liu Sheng's nose and scolding him, it was obvious that this person did not take the identity of the heir apparent of the Liu family of the Imperial City into his heart at all.
What surprised her even more was Yagyu's attitude. If it had been anyone else, he would have been angry a long time ago. After all, he came from the Imperial City's crown prince and was aloof. It was rare for him to be able to endure the scolding.
"This little girl seems to be very dependent on you."
"Yes, there must be something fishy about Yinyin's appearance in Licheng! After Yinyin wakes up, it's time to deal with the next thing."
Luo Chen had murderous intent in his eyes. Wuling County and Licheng were hundreds of miles apart. Even he almost died on the road. If Zhong Li hadn't saved him, he would have starved to death on the road.
Yinyin was just a child of about six years old. If he said that she traveled hundreds of miles alone, came to Licheng alone, and beat him to death, he wouldn't believe it.
Apart from anything else, Licheng is a royal city. Ordinary people are not even qualified to step into the city gate. However, how can Yinyin, a little beggar, do it?
Moreover, there were bruises on her body. Some of the injuries were old injuries, but some were new injuries. He had checked them before, which made him murderous.
Yinyin has a special ability, which is to make money. Maybe someone is eyeing this, so he brought Yinyin to Licheng. After all, Wuling County is just a small county, what is its future? He even doubted that,
As early as when Yinyin was in Wuling County, she was already being targeted.
She knew exactly how powerful this little guy was. This was a mobile treasury.
"Yin Yin is just a child as old as six years old. No matter who he is, this is too much."
Luo Chen was very angry.
"What are you going to do?"
Li Ruotong looked at Luo Chen and asked what he meant.
"I will ask Yin Yin what she wants when the time comes. If she doesn't want to go back, I plan to keep her here."
Luo Chen spoke, looking at the sleeping little girl, a smile appeared on the corner of Luo Chen's mouth.
"You're not much older than her. You can go to my room to sleep in a while, and I'll stay with this little girl."
Li Ruotong spoke in an imperative tone.
"ah?"
Zhong Li opened his mouth wide, Luo Chen blinked, but he had no objection.
"Don't think too much. Yinyin is a girl after all, and she's so cute. I feel a little uneasy having you in the same room."
When Li Ruotong spoke like this, Zhong Li smiled brightly.
"Isn't it right? Sister Ruotong, in your eyes, am I so unbearable?"
Luo Chen covered his chest, feeling very hurt.
"That's it. I don't know why, but I like this little girl very much."
Li Ruotong smiled and said, it was just a joke before. The three of them chatted for a while, and then Luo Chen and Zhong Li left the room. With Li Ruotong taking care of Yinyin, Luo Chen naturally felt at ease. (To be completed.)
