Chapter 7 Encountering the Secret Guard in the Back Mountain
Unknowingly, he stayed in the orchid garden for three years.
Because she has always performed very well and completed her homework on time every day, Chen Jinzhi gave her two days off and allowed her to go to the mountains behind the Orchid Garden to play. When everyone heard this, they all expressed their willingness to accompany, Chen Jinzhi let her make her own decision, and she simply didn't bring anyone, and slipped up the mountain alone.
He deliberately used the hosta that her mother gave her to pull her head, and jumped in the direction of the mountain.
"Don't you need to send someone to keep an eye on it?" the man in black stood beside Chen Jinzhi, looking at the back of the man who was far away, and couldn't help asking.
"The whole back mountain is an orchid garden, and she can't run away. Chen Jinzhi shook his head, "This child is homesick, and the news of the death of her adoptive parents will not be hidden sooner or later, I will tell you to go to incense every year, can you do it?"
"That's it. ”
"If she asks in the future, she will say that they died violently in troubled times, and never mention that she is the most yin person, she is too sensible, I am afraid that she will not be able to stand it. Chen Jinzhi said in a deep voice, "It's better for her to hate this world than to hate herself." ”
"Big brother, when are you going to teach her to draw talismans?"
"Why do you suddenly ask this?"
"The north has fallen, there are foreigners who invade us everywhere, and it looks like it's almost to the south of the Yangtze River, if she carefully studies the runes, it will take four or five years to understand, now she is ten years old, I see that her writing skills are no worse than ours, it's time." ”
"It's time. ”
Chen Jin's heart suddenly became a little reluctant, in the past three years, he has grown up day by day, from the previous immature child to a girl, and his temperament is more calm.
"There is something I still have to tell my eldest brother. ”
"You say. ”
"I've actually known for a long time, the eldest lady she doesn't like to be he, and there were secret guards who followed me before, and I wanted to know the life experience of Yihe, I knew that the orchid garden could not raise a secret guard, but this is not a big deal, I have always turned a blind eye, but recently I always found that there are carrier pigeons in the orchid garden that are different from ours, I traced down and found that it was the eldest lady who flew out of the house, and who she communicated with is not yet known, and I have to guard against it. ”
"What? Evian her!" Chen Jinzhi shook his hand angrily after hearing this, "I'll go to her and ask her well!"
"Big brother, don't be impulsive, the top priority at the moment is to know who is communicating with her first, don't push too hard, you and I know the temper of the eldest lady, the more you force her, the less she will tell the truth, maybe it's just a misunderstanding, she has been grounded in the house by the eldest brother, maybe she just feels lonely and wants to talk to someone. ”
"I locked her in the house because I was afraid that she would cause trouble, three years ago she almost told her that I was a talisman master, at that time she was still young, if she knew that I didn't come to her to teach her calligraphy, maybe she wouldn't want to learn," Chen Jinzhi sighed, "I burned her with a fire talisman that day, and I also knew that what I said was heavier, but I couldn't help it, if Evian was not sensible or careless, then our hopes would be lost." ”
"I'm afraid that the eldest lady is really sad. ”
"That day, she also questioned me, why I don't want to pass on the rune to her, she belongs to the yang, and is not suitable for practicing the rune, I just want her to be an ordinary person in this life, not to encounter any danger, as long as in the orchid garden, I set up an enchantment with blood characters outside, no evil can enter, she is still young, and she will understand in the future. Chen Jinzhi shook his head and glanced at the man in black, "I'll go see her, you've been working hard these days, let's go back and rest first." ”
Chen Jinzhi walked to the door of Evian's room, knocked lightly, and after a while, Liuzhu came over to open the door.
"Where's Miss?"
"If you go back to the master, the young lady is resting in the house. ”
"It's almost noon, and she's still sleeping?"
"The young lady has been very tired lately, and she always sleeps until the afternoon before getting up. ”
"I'll take a look. ”
Chen Jinzhi walked into the room and saw that the curtain on Chen Yiyun's bed was still hanging, so he stepped forward and lifted it.
Her eyes hurt a little in the bright light, but she still didn't open them, but just said cowardly, "Liuzhu, I'm too sleepy, you let me sleep for a while." ”
Chen Jinzhi was a little angry when he saw her decadent appearance, and he was about to slap it down with one palm, Chen Yiyun felt a breath rushing to his face, opened his eyes suddenly, and dodged on one side.
"Daddy......" Chen Yiyun was a little panicked, she quickly wrapped herself in a quilt and looked at Chen Jinzhi timidly.
"Get dressed right away and come out to meet me, I'll wait outside. ”
With that, he waved his sleeve and walked out.
"Liuzhu, Liuzhu!" Seeing Chen Jinzhi go out, Chen Yiyun hurriedly shouted, "Come in." ”
Liuzhu, who was standing outside, hurriedly ran to her side in small steps, "Why is my father here, how long has he been here?"
"For about a quarter of an hour, he stood outside the door for a while, and then entered the room.
"He hadn't been here in three years, and I thought he had forgotten about my daughter. Chen Yiyun shook her head, "By the way, you didn't say anything about my night walk, did you?"
"No, I didn't say anything, and the master didn't ask anything. ”
"Yes, how could he ask? He only has that wild child in his heart, where will he take care of me, wait for me to change my clothes, and save him from having another attack after waiting for a long time. ”
"Miss, don't talk about the master, he has always had you in his heart. When Liu Zhu heard this, he knew that the young lady must be very uncomfortable in her heart, but she wanted to be reckless and refused to give in, and the relationship between father and daughter was so stiff.
Chen Yiyun dressed and went out, and saw Chen Jin standing under the magnolia tree from a distance, his mother saw him under the magnolia tree, a flute in his hand, looking up at the magnolia flowers on the tree, beautiful like a painting. Maybe at that time, his mother fell in love with him because he looked at him more in the crowd, but unfortunately she could only be a maid because of her low status, because of love, she blindly tolerated it, but she was still willing, until Chen Jinzhi married Yu Wanting, a talented girl in Jiangnan, and her mother was completely dead.
On the wedding day, everyone was congratulating him on his happy wedding, and they all said that a talented man and a beautiful woman were good for a good match.
But no one knew that it was the day her mother gave birth.
Because she heard the gongs and drums beating outside, and saw the big red happy words, her mother felt lonely and accidentally fell on the way into the house. She had no way to call for help, so she had to crawl into bed alone and gave birth to her prematurely in a bout of pain, but unfortunately her father still did not give her poor mother a name.
Although Yu Wanting is a famous lady, but after all, she is also a woman, easy to be jealous of love, she heard that a maid gave birth to the old man's child, naturally angry, she tried her best, threatened Evian's life, and finally sent her mother to a far away nunnery, never returned.
Evian is only worthless for his mother.
Although she is the eldest lady, not many people in the entire Orchid Garden really regard her as a young lady, just because she is Chen Jinzhi's daughter, because her surname is Chen, and she has a little respect for her, how to talk behind the scenes, how ugly the ridicule, she already knows.
"Dad, you came to me today, is there anything wrong?"
"Evian, I want you to tell me truthfully, have you done anything bad behind my back?"
Chen Jinzhi suddenly became serious.
"Does it have anything to do with Yihe?" Chen Yiyun sneered, "Who sued my father again? I have stayed in my own house honestly in the past three years, and I have never gone out, what bad things can I do?"
"I'm referring to the things that are forbidden in the Orchid Garden, such as carrier pigeons, such as secret guards. ”
"It turns out that my father still cares about me and has been spying on me. ”
"Do you admit it? Do you really raise carrier pigeons privately, and also raise secret guards privately?" Chen Jinzhi's lips trembled a little, and he had even fantasized about it before, could it be that he was mistaken, Evian was his daughter, and he would not be so young and so heavy-minded.
"Dad has already come to me, so naturally he already knows, what's the use of denying it. ”
"Who are you communicating with with carrier pigeons, and where do your secret guards live?"
"This is my private matter, and it has nothing to do with you. ”
"You don't say it, do you? It's really grown up, and its wings are stiff. Chen Jinzhi laughed angrily, "Come on, pull Liuzhu out for me." ”
"What are you going to do?"
"I'll only give you three numbers, if you don't say it, I'll burn Liuzhu to death with a fire talisman. Chen Jinzhi said, his right hand drew a talisman in the air, which instantly ignited and pressed in front of Liu Zhu, "One." ”
"Dad, you let Liuzhu go. ”
"II. ”
"Don't hurt Liuzhu, please, Dad, no one in this world loves me and cares about me anymore, I only have Liuzhu left, Dad, please. Chen Yiyun knelt on the ground, looking at Chen Jinzhi with blood-red eyes, "The secret guard is the person my mother saved before, my mother handed it over to me after she left, he is now on the back mountain, he was raised by me with blood, just listen to my words, people next to him will die if they get close to him, my mother just wants to find someone to protect me, after all, I don't ......know anything."
"Oops. Hearing the back mountain, Chen Jinzhi's face changed, he waved his hand to collect the fire talisman and turned around and ran out.
