Yan He walked slowly into the courtyard with his hands in his hands, his face was not shocked, but he repeatedly thought about Master Tongyuan's words in his heart, after listening to it at first, he immediately thought of the various abnormalities of 'He Lanlan' these days, originally thought that she was a young man and an old man, but now that he thinks about it, there is only one explanation.

He didn't believe in ghosts and gods, and he had always been suspicious, he was surprised and stunned at first, and then his eyes showed a bit of cruelty, could it be that she used some evil magic to come to her side?

But after thinking about it carefully, she felt that it was impossible, when she first met He Lanlan, she was being chased and killed by alien soldiers, if she really knew this kind of technique, she couldn't be sure that she would definitely save her, wouldn't it be more reliable to transfer her soul to his confidants?

He was a little distracted for a while, and only after a while did he show a little self-deprecating smile, and gently pinched his eyebrows, this is used to fighting with people outside, and it is inevitable to consider the worst when he thinks about anything, but in fact, the truth is not as complicated as he thought.

Thinking all the way into the courtyard, his footsteps turned but he came to the side room where Chonglan lived, Mama Feng was directing people to clean up the house, and when she saw him come in, she hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Please young master, is there anything wrong with the young master?" ”

Yan He lowered his eyes and thought for a while: "I remember that your little lady used to do a lot of embroidery work, where are you putting it now?" ”

Mama Feng didn't expect him to ask this, so she hurriedly took out a delicate small box from the big box, turned out all the embroidery work Chonglan had done these days and showed it to her, and said with a smile: "Little Miss's hand is really ingenious, such a big embroidery is so exquisite, and the husband's family doesn't like to die when he grows up." ”

Yan He raised his lips mockingly, took out the purse embroidered with the word Lan and looked at it carefully, just as Chonglan also came back with a trotting face at this time, and said in a raised voice: "Mama Feng, I want to drink..." ”

Yan He raised his hand to let the subordinates retreat, and handed the purse to her: "Look at this, are you familiar?" He turned the rose pink purse over and asked her to look at the Arashi character: "I remember that your name doesn't seem to be this Arashi character, right?" ”

Chonglan's hands were sweating, his heart was beating suddenly, and he barely calmed down on his face: "I don't know, is it that the maid embroidered it and put it in my embroidery box?" ”

Yan and Pi asked back without smiling: "Really?" ”

Chonglan pretended not to care and said: "Maybe I saw that this word happened to be embroidered when I was flipping through the book, how long ago happened, where can I still remember." She blinked and asked, "Why do you keep asking this today?" ”

Yan He looked down at her, and saw that although she was calm on her face, she couldn't hide the panic resistance in her eyes, sighed slightly in her heart, suppressed her displeasure, put her purse back into the box, and said indifferently: "It's nothing, just a few words of gossip." ”

He walked to the door and suddenly muttered, "Speaking of which, it is also a coincidence that the boss of the Chong clan fainted again as soon as you woke up." ”

With that, he turned and went back to the house, leaving Chonglan standing in the middle of the room, his legs limp, and he slumped on a stool tremblingly.

She tossed and turned all night, thinking about the meaning of Yan He's words repeatedly, the more she thought about it, the more she realized that he knew something, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that it was wrong, this thing was so unbelievable, what did he perceive?

She thought about it and still couldn't think of a reason, but it provoked Mama Feng to come and coax several times at night, and she couldn't dispel Yan He's suspicions now, so she had to comfort herself, he just felt that something was wrong, and he shouldn't notice anything, and he had to be more cautious in the following days.

After tossing and turning like this all night, she got up in the morning and was full of sorrow, and was served by Mama Feng to change her clothes, and went to accompany Yan He to dinner, and was hesitating how to answer him, when she suddenly saw a little guy running in in a hurry, and said loudly: "Young master, the big thing is not good, the criminal department just came to our house to get people, and at this time several masters have been invited out." ”

Chonglan was startled, and her hand holding the porridge bowl trembled, she vaguely heard that someone from the Yan family had participated in the rebellion, but there was no movement a few days ago, and she thought that the fault made by the Yan family was not serious, how could it be said that if you take people, you will take people?

Yan He looked calm, holding his sleeves and slowly distributing vegetables to himself, as if he hadn't heard. The little guy knelt down and kowtowed, and said hurriedly: "Now that the lords of each room have rushed over, the old lady said that you can speak in the official face, and please go and persuade those adults of the criminal department." ”

He had no choice but to respond, the little guy couldn't, and he didn't dare to urge him, so he had to hurriedly run back to his life, he slowly finished drinking the porridge, and then took Chonglan to the main hall, just saw a few officials of the criminal department with Yunyan on their clothes were leaving, Yan Sanle and several other masters of the Yan family were talking with a smile.

Among them, an official embroidered with a peacock on the complement played an official tone, raised his chin slightly, and looked slightly arrogant: "... I heard that the emperor is going to tour the south when he is waiting for the □□, and the top decrees let us do this well before the emperor comes up, this is a major matter of rebellion, although I know that the Guogong Mansion is deceived by people, but the duty is also helpless, a few or go back. ”

Yan Sanle wished that Yan Sansi had an accident, but he hated that this time everyone took it away, but he didn't take away the straw bag, so he just persuaded him a few words and stopped talking, and the other Yan family masters didn't even have official titles, and they couldn't speak.

The official was about to go out, but when he saw Yan He coming over, his eyes lit up, he greeted him with a waist and smiled gently: "Lord Yan." ”

Yan He stopped and arched his hand slightly: "Zheng Shilang." ”

Everyone in the Yan family looked at this official, and they felt a little uncomfortable, and someone raised their voices and said: "Boss, you came just in time, what kind of family is our family, the most loyal and patriotic, you should know this, how can you collude with the traitor?" Speak quickly to this lord for the forgiveness of your father and uncles. ”

Zheng Shilang's face tightened after hearing this, and he scolded the Yan family in his heart, although the superiors ordered to strictly investigate the betrayal of the party, but this person heard that he was the future governor, and he was stumbling in the officialdom, and it was not good to give no face at all, but no matter how he dealt with it, it was not good to answer anything on the face now, otherwise it would be a handle to spread out, and his official reputation would be gone!

Chonglan also shook his head secretly, these people were too uninteresting. Yan He didn't pay attention to those people, just looked at Zheng Shilang, and laughed in harmony: "The waiter has always been discerning and fair, and the official is naturally trustworthy, no matter what the final result of the waiter's trial, the official will not have any objections." ”

Still talking comfortably to someone who understands, Zheng Shilang bowed down and said: "That's natural, it's a matter of the adult's family, and the official will naturally try it in person, if there is nothing to do, I will definitely give you justice." He wanted to have a friendship with Yan He, so he didn't take away his Lao Tzu Yan Sansi, but after hearing this, he didn't know what Yan He was thinking, so he had to continue to say what the official said.

Yan He bowed his head and said, "My lord bothered. ”

Zheng Shilang arched his hand: "You're polite." Then he waved his hand and continued to ask people back.

As soon as he left, several masters from each room of the Yan family surrounded him, pleading with nonsense, nothing more than saying how wronged and innocent those people who were taken away, Yan He listened with a smile, but did not give a reply, waved his hand and said: "Uncles don't need to panic, Lord Fang Cai has said that he will handle it impartially, since everyone feels that the house is wronged, then we just have to wait for the result." ”

The few people left behind all looked at each other, what they were afraid of was to handle it impartially. These people still wanted to persuade again, but he sighed leisurely: "Besides, I'm worried at home now, even if I have the heart to help with the activity, it's useless to tell me this." ”

After he finished speaking, he didn't care whether everyone believed it or not, he just pulled Chonglan back to his yard. She raised her head and asked carefully, "So many people begging adults, do adults not care about this?" ”

Yan He half-leaned down, gently pinched her fleshy chin and lifted it up: "Do you know what happened just now?" ”

Chonglan can't wait to slap herself, this is the end of being too mouthy! What can a five-year-old know? She turned her mind, but she still thought about it and turned her words back: "When my father was here, there were many people who came to ask him to do things, and I saw that the situation was somewhat similar to my family. ”

Yan He got up: "This thing won't be fatal, but it's just a matter of suffering, the important thing is, what does it have to do with me?" ”

Chonglan didn't dare to answer blindly, just walked with his head down, he didn't even go out today, he rarely read a book in the house, teasing her a few words from time to time, she thought about saying more and making mistakes, and pretended not to hear it every time.

In the afternoon, Mama Wei, who was beside Mrs. Yan, hurriedly ran over, trying her best to maintain the usual etiquette, and saluted: "Young master, the old lady has set up a family banquet in the main hall, now please come over." ”

Yan He sighed: "Thank you grandmother for your kindness, but I have already had dinner, so I can only resign." ”

Mama Wei's face was stunned, so she had to tell the truth, and pleaded: "The young master knows what happened in the morning, and several masters in the family have been arrested, although the second master did not move, he was also locked in the room and asked for a while, but I am afraid that it will not be far from being taken away." The old lady can't, so she arranged a family banquet for the family to go over to discuss the method, you are now the most able to speak, be sure to go over to discuss. ”

Only then did he look a little begging, and Yan He said leisurely: "Since that's the case, then I'll go over." ”

As he spoke, he picked up and got up, Chonglan thought that there was nothing wrong with him, but he didn't expect him to take her over, she had no choice but to follow him to the main hall.

When I finally arrived at the main hall, I saw Ning kneeling under the hall, covering his face with a silk and couldn't see his expression clearly, but he just sobbed: "... The old lady said this, but she misunderstood her daughter-in-law, when did your daughter-in-law remember the family property in your hand? It's just three years of Qing Governor's Mansion, 100,000 snowflakes of silver, who is willing to work hard to help without silver money in this world? You want An'er and his father to help with the activities outside, how can you do it without some money in your hand? ”

Old Madam Yan sneered: "If you only ask for money, I won't say anything, but if you open your mouth, you want the shops and granges left by your ancestors, and when my mother-in-law is dead?" ”

Ning choked up crying: "Those big masters in the yamen, which one is not above the top, where can the ordinary taels of silver be able to see the eyes?" The daughter-in-law is just afraid that the cash is not enough but will make a mistake, for the sake of a few uncles and brothers in the family, she opened her mouth, how can my mother say this about me? ”

Mrs. Yan has a high status in the Yan Mansion, even Yan Sanle and her family dare not offend easily, one is because she is the mother-in-law and has a high status, and the other is because although the Ning family is in charge of the house, the family's money is still in the hands of Mrs. Yan. Where does the Ning family just want ancestral property, but want to be in charge of the entire mansion.

At this time, Yan He had already taken Chonglan in, but there was a lot of noise in the hall, and no one paid attention to the two of them, she ran to sit with Yan Zhi, Yan He glanced at her, and randomly found a hat chair to sit down.

Old Madam Yan slammed her crutches and said angrily: "Don't think that I don't know what dirty thoughts you two have, seeing that his father is gone, thinking that he can fiddle with us with the silver money, I tell you, dream!" ”

Ning knelt on the ground, crying almost limp in the past: "Mother said this, how can the daughter-in-law live, when my father specially took Xianggong's hand and told him to take care of the second uncle, Xianggong still dare not forget, these days for the second uncle and several other uncles, I ran out to help, I don't know how much I have paid in these years, if I don't really have no money, I won't be cheeky to open this mouth to my mother." ”

She wiped her tears with a silk: "Xianggong is not your own child, it's okay if you don't feel distressed, but the second uncle is your biological son, and those uncles and brothers are all close relatives of the family, no matter how much money you have, you can't buy the lives of your family, do you still care about this bit of silver?" ”

Chong Lan secretly praised Gao Ming, as if Mrs. Yan didn't pay any money, but she wanted to sincerely kill Yan Sansi and several other people who were arrested.

Mrs. Yan was so blocked that she couldn't speak, Yan Sansi couldn't sit still, and also stepped forward to persuade: "Mother, what my sister-in-law said also makes some sense, or you can divide the field shop into the eldest brother and them, anyway, it is also for our own family to spend." ”

Chonglan was drinking tea with a tea cup, and almost squirted out a mouthful of tea when she heard the words, this second master of the Yan family can, and his arm turned out. She subconsciously went to look at Yan He, and saw that his expression was faint, but there was a slight ridicule in his eyes, but she was not surprised.

The old lady Yan over there was also very angry, and scolded angrily: "What do you know? Don't give me back yet! ”

Yan Sansi didn't dare to refute his mother, so he had to sit back stupidly, and there were a few female relatives who were taken away next to him, and they all persuaded him softly: "Yes, auntie, don't be stingy with money at this time, money is not as important as the life of the family, since the eldest brother has a way, then give him the money and let him try." ”

Yan Sanle did so much for the title, it was strange that he could really help, and when they took over the power of this Yan Mansion, they reaped enough benefits, and inherited the title, I am afraid that there will be no place for them to come out of this room in the mansion.

Old Mrs. Yan was stunned by the six gods that you said with one word, and she saw Yan He sitting in the distance, like a treasure, and hurriedly beckoned: "Brother He, you are the grandson of our family, and you can talk outside, what should you do about this?" ”

Yan He got up and said slowly: "I'm worried at home now, and I can't speak in the court, and my grandmother is embarrassed by asking like this." ”

Old Madam Yan saw that he looked like he didn't care about himself, and she was anxious: "But when you achieved such a high official position, don't you have any connections in the officialdom?" It's always a room for activity! ”

Ning was afraid that Yan He would make a move, so the two of them would stop singing this scene, and followed closely: "Not all people in the officialdom go to tea and cool, even if they and my brother used to have hands and eyes that go through the sky, now they have no position, and no one listens to what they say." ”

Old Mrs. Yan's heart tightened, and she raised her eyes to look at Yan He at a loss, at this time, a plainly dressed, even old-fashioned woman walked out and asked softly: "Sister-in-law said that she wants the ancestral property in the hands of her grandmother to communicate with the family, is the sister-in-law 100% sure that she will save people?" ”

This question got to the point, Chonglan couldn't help but look at the woman, she originally saw that the woman was dressed in a low-key and simple manner, and thought that she was the lady in charge of the service, but she didn't expect that she was also a good master.

Ning Shi was stunned, his eyes dodged, and he said vaguely: "There is no ten percent of things in the world, your eldest brother can only do his best." ”

The woman went on to ask, "If it doesn't work out, what will happen to the money spent, and will the rest of the sister-in-law be returned?" ”

Ning Shi was speechless, glanced at the past with resentment, and sneered: "Dare to love that the sixth brother and sister have no husband, and they don't want to go to the troubled waters, so they stand on the dry shore and say cool things." ”

Old Lady Yan finally let out a breath, glanced at the woman gratefully, and said in a deep voice with a cold face: "The sixth daughter-in-law is right, it's okay to give you this money, but you have to talk about how to settle it after the matter is completed?" ”

Of course, Ning Shi couldn't say anything like that, so he just said vaguely: "There are so many people to save, and it doesn't matter how much it will cost, my mother asks me now, and I can't say it." ”

She said and shed tears again: "My mother asked what this means, I have been boiling oil in this house for so many years, helping to manage the family for so many years, there is no credit and hard work, can I still be greedy for these silver coins?" ”

Chonglan couldn't help but press the corner of his forehead, the Yan family's group of people is really strange, shouldn't the top priority now be how to fish people out, how could they be pulled off the road by the Ning family, and how to divide the family property by tossing vigorously?

Old Madam Yan was so angry that she was choked enough, Mama Wei hurriedly took a few steps forward to stroke her chest, she closed her eyes and gasped for a moment before she sorted out her priorities, and she didn't care about Ning's anymore, and turned her face directly to Yan He: "You really don't have any way?" This is your own father, if something happens to him, how can your career be smooth in the future? If our house falls, what good will it do you? ”

This is finally back to the topic, the female dependents of several men who were caught in all looked at him in unison, Yan He tucked his sleeves, and said in a rambling voice: "I will try my best to help with the activity, and the rest depends on the meaning of the saint today." ”

This is still the same as not saying it, Mrs. Yan's anxious heart is like a fire burning, she looks straight at Yan He, and is about to ask a few more words, but she can't see his face, her eyebrows and eyes are like spring waves Lihua, and in a trance, she is very much like the second daughter-in-law who has passed away for many years, her heart jumps, the whole person is on the chair, and the persecution words can't be said again.

Ning's eyes rolled, and he wished that Yan He would not help, and the two of them could handle the entire Yan Mansion, so they took advantage of this to stroke her chest and scold her from the head, and scolded one after another: "You are all dead people, why don't you take care of some old ladies." Then he said to the people below: "I can't open this banquet today, it's all gone, and I'll talk about it tomorrow." ”

After she finished speaking, she glanced at Yan He, and secretly thought in her heart, how to let him out of the mansion for a while, so that she and Yan Sansi could plan for this title.

Yan He took Chonglan back to the courtyard, she moved to his side, and whispered in his ear: "My lord, you haven't eaten at night, are you hungry?" ”

The two of them actually didn't eat before the family banquet was called away just now, although there was a meal at the family banquet, but who could eat in front of such a large family, Chonglan didn't have that appetite, presumably Yan He was about the same.

He heard the song and knew what he meant, and glanced at her: "Are you still hungry?" ”

Chonglan nodded vigorously, and whispered in his ear with a doggy face: "I'm going to make some food for the adults first?" ”

He looked down at her, and the familiar look on his little face made him stunned for a moment, and then he turned his gaze away and said, "You go, let the next person follow." ”

Chonglan laughed, and walked out with Mama Feng and the two maids, there are two large kitchens of the Yan family, one master and one subordinate, and the small kitchens in each room are ignored for the time being. She thought for a moment and went straight to the master's kitchen.

At this time, there was no one in the kitchen, and after she gave the reward, she was busy in the kitchen, and sent the people in the kitchen to cook, cooked a pot of fresh white fish soup, and ordered someone to roll out the noodles, and used the fish soup to make noodles, sprinkled with verdant green onions, and a large bowl of fish soup noodles was ready.

Mama Feng looked at the flickering stove, her heart was beating in shock, and she told her in a loud voice: "Little Miss, be careful, don't burn yourself." After she finished speaking, she praised again: "Little Miss has such a craft at such a young age, no wonder adults like it." ”

Chonglan was happy with her, and ordered the selected fat goose to be cut into long strips, and then put it into a shallow pot to stew, and added sesame oil, sesame oil and balsamic vinegar to prepare two side dishes.

When she was a child, she was used to doing these things, and she was ready to stop in less than half an hour, and packed it in a food box to prepare for Yan He.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked to the door, a gorgeous and charming lady strode over, Chonglan's little short legs did not stop, and accidentally bumped into it for a while, but fortunately the ingredients were not spilled.

The lady was wearing a pink half-arm, with a shawl of the same color on her shoulders, she didn't look like a lady with a straight head, and she had some anger on her face. ”
