Yuan Xiu didn't notice that the expressions of the people around him changed after hearing this. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

She just looked down at the flower that had been planted in the pot, and her attention was attracted by the flower.

The old gardener asked with a hint of vigilance in his tone, "Ah Xiu, that person in the small courtyard...... What did he tell you? ”

Yuan Xiu heard that something was wrong, and only then turned his gaze to his grandfather.

She saw the defensiveness in the old gardener's eyes, and she was a little confused.

After thinking about it, Yuan Xiu still said truthfully: "Grandpa, Xiaolin...... He asked me if I was going to dig up the flowers and plant them. He also asked me if I needed his help. ”

After Yuan Xiu finished speaking, he looked at the old gardener and smiled: "Xiao Lin is very enthusiastic. ”

Unexpectedly, the gardener's face sank and asked, "How can he help?" ”

"Grandpa, he's talking about digging up this flower...... He would too. ”

After hearing this, the old gardener frowned and said, "It must be said in words, but what happened later?" ”

Yuan Xiu responded: "Grandpa, I think the same as you think, so after he said it, I told him not to hurt the rhizomes of flowers and plants when digging." ”

She emphatically said, "I say, be extra careful...... Not the average person would. ”

The gardener stared at the little granddaughter and asked, "What will he say after listening to you?" ”

A smile appeared on the corner of Yuan Xiu's mouth, thinking about what happened before, thinking of the conversation under the big tree in the forest, and thinking of the boy's kind smile.

After a pause, she turned her eyes to the gardener and answered: "As a result, Xiao Lin said that he had done things in the flower garden before, and he told me that these things would not be difficult for him!" ”

"Don't go to the woods over there in the future, even if it's someone from the army, there are good and bad, Ah Xiu, you are still young......"

Yuan Xiu pursed her lips and said dissatisfiedly: "Grandpa, Xiaolin is not a bad person, you just need to see his appearance." ”

The old gardener was stunned for a moment, and then said earnestly: "Ah Xiu, listen to grandpa's words, people can't be good-looking!" ”

Yuan Xiu replied disapprovingly: "Grandpa, are you talking about Xiaolin...... Does he have bad intentions? ”

The old gardener looked at her with some concern, and whispered, "Who knows! ”

"Ah Xiu, grandpa is for your good, in short, you have to listen to grandpa......"

"Ah Xiu, you are in the house all day long, you have little contact with people outside, and you don't know that people's hearts are sinister."

Yuan Xiu listened to the words, looked at the gardener in ignorance, and was speechless for a long time.

...... Recruit Ah Rong stayed in the room and finished eating a plate of dim sum placed on the table.

He also drank a pot of tea placed next to the snack plate on the table, but the attendant had told him to wait in the room, and the female officer who would come to question him still did not appear.

Ah Rong walked to the door several times, and wanted to push open the door and take a look outside.

He pondered it and thought about what the squire had brought him before.

Ah Rong was apprehensive, so he stayed by the door for a while, and had to turn back to the table in the room, sit down and continue to wait for someone to come.

The female officer didn't know where she went...... Could it be that he was also questioned by His Majesty?

A thought flashed through Ah Rong's heart, and he sat alone in the empty room and muttered to himself.

...... It was cold outside, but there was a charcoal brazier in the corner of the house, and Ah Rong felt much warmer here than when he was in the small courtyard.

Ah Rong after he has eaten his fill...... Before I knew it, my eyelids drooped and I started fighting.

He set out from the front-line camp before dawn...... After arriving at the house, he was approached several times for questioning.

The people who interrogated him...... From female officials to Gu Qimei to the empress, those are all people he can't afford to offend.

The superior can easily condemn him with a single sentence, and if he is not careful, he will get into trouble for himself if he says the wrong word, and he must not be careless.

From that moment on, Ah Rong's whole person was always tense.

It wasn't until he was arranged to go to the small courtyard and saw Xiao Lin on the way that his mood changed.

When they finally settled in the small courtyard, they could all rest early and sleep peacefully in order to start work tomorrow, but Master Wan, who went out to buy, did not come back.

As a result, the two people who were temporary assistants could not rest well because of this incident.

After discussing with Xiaolin, he waited in the courtyard, and the two of them talked a lot about the things around Nanhua Town, but Master Wan still didn't come back.

Who would have thought that after a while, even he himself would be called away and questioned and leave the yard?

Ah Rong's mind turned around, thinking of Xiao Lin who was still waiting in the small courtyard at the moment, he had an indescribable feeling.

Ah Rong was extremely tired, and subconsciously lay on the table, and soon fell into a state of deep sleep.

...... Time passed, and after about a quarter of an hour, someone came in from outside.

The man, also dressed as an attendant, walked all the way from outside the courtyard in the night.

He walked to the table and saw Ah Rong sleeping soundly on the table, and he didn't mean to wake up at all.

The man stared at Aron for a moment, without any change in his expression, and then he withdrew from the room, closing the door carefully.

From beginning to end, the female officer who said that she wanted to be questioned did not appear.

Ah Rong was the only one in the house.

...... Raising his head and looking at the female officer sitting across from him, Master Wan was facing questioning, which was the most nervous moment after he arrived at the mansion.

He followed the female officer all the way to a very remote room in the courtyard.

As instructed by the female officer to take care of Qimei before leaving, she avoided outsiders and carefully inquired about Master Wan's related matters.

Especially the attendant who caught Gu Qimei's attention, he had also led a few of their craftsmen to the road today.

Master Wan hesitated for a moment and said the truth.

There was no exaggeration in his tone when he spoke, but with the rank of a female official, he could naturally hear that it was inappropriate.

The female officer's gaze fell on Master Wan's face, knowing that the person in front of her was very real.

From the tone of his voice, it can be heard that Master Wan's character is good.

The attendant had a bad attitude and was very indifferent to the few people who came from the army, and the female officer was asking...... Master Wan is in front of the opportunity...... When the female officer took the initiative to interrogate, she didn't mean to deliberately sue in front of her.

The female officer asked what had happened, bowed her head and pondered.

After a while, she raised her head, looked at Master Wan and said, "It's already late at night, and now I have to disturb the other two to rest when I go back." ”

"Why don't you just stay here for one night, and then go back to the courtyard at dawn."

Hearing this, Master Wan hesitated again, and said in his heart, maybe Xiaolin and they are still waiting in a hurry!

It's a pity that as soon as the female official spoke, he couldn't refute it, so he had to nod and agree.

The female officer left, and Master Wan looked at the room.

This kind of room has more than one place in the courtyard, and it looks like it is all the same.

According to his judgment, it seemed to be a temporary resting place for the attendants.

At the moment, since this is a hidden place for female officials to interrogate, it is expected that there will definitely not be any uninteresting attendants who will come to disturb them.

Thinking about the female official's question just now, Master Wan said in his heart, did something happen in the house?

Otherwise, how could he suddenly come to him for questioning?

He walked to the window, opened it and looked out into the courtyard.

Outside, there was silence and no one passed.

Master Wan closed the window, walked to the corner of the room, and carried the tool bag he was carrying in his hand.

Then he walked over to the lighted table and took them out one by one to inspect them.

Master Wan followed the attendant and the handyman...... The three of them walked through almost every shop they could find in town.

None of the tools they could find were comparable to those in the big shops in the capital, even in one store.

Master Wan sighed...... Northland is a little smaller after all!

...... The attendant came out of the woods, and saw his companion walking on the opposite side, and the two met on the path.

After greeting each other, one of them stopped and looked at his companion and asked, "Is that person in the courtyard settled?" ”

"I'm asleep, I'll let him stay there tonight."

Remembering what had happened before, the companion couldn't help but continue, "However, he did mention to me that he wanted to bring some food to another recruit." ”

The attendant looked surprised and asked, "Aren't there only three people who have come to the mansion?" ”

"The older one at the beginning is a craftsman, and the two of them shouldn't have known each other before, can they still be so attentive?"

The companion looked at him and said in a calm tone: "They are all transferred from the military camp, and they may be able to talk, and there are those who are familiar at first sight." ”

"I heard that there is very little food to be delivered, right?"

The attendant nodded and said, "It's true, I've heard about it too, and it seems that I just gave a few cold steamed buns!" ”

"This is too embarrassing, how can I stand it in the winter, or ......"

As he spoke, he hesitated.

The companion glanced at him, guessed the other party's intentions, and answered: "If you want to do good deeds, do it, why ask me!" ”

"These people themselves are sent to do things, so that they can be treated better, and they can be more careful when repairing the whole car."

"That's what you said, then I'll go."

"Okay, okay, who's going to stop you, really."

...... I walked back to the small courtyard, and as soon as I plugged in the gate on the west side, I heard footsteps again in the forest in the distance.

It's only been a little bit before and after that someone has come here.

Luckily, I didn't stay in the forest for long.

The Dark Guard left fast enough.

I thought about it for a moment, and walked straight to the side room where I was staying.

I didn't plan to open the door directly, and I wouldn't be too late to answer when someone came close to knock on the door.

I sat by the fire and glanced out into the courtyard.

Not long after, just as I expected, someone knocked on the door.

I stood up unhurriedly and walked in the direction of the courtyard gate.

When I walked to the east gate, I heard someone talking to me outside.

In response, I stepped forward and opened the door.

Standing outside was not Ah Rong, nor Master Wan, but an attendant who looked at his eyes.

The total number of people working in this courtyard is not small, and I don't think it's strange to have a waiter who I haven't seen, but it's the second half of the night, why did this person come to the small courtyard?

I looked at him quizzically and asked, "Something looking for me?" ”

The moment he opened the door, he showed a slightly surprised look, and then looked at me and said, "You are sober, I am on duty at night, and I originally planned to try to knock on the door, but if no one answers, forget it." ”

I secretly said in my heart, is there really something coming to me like this?

I looked at him and waited for the following.

He looked at me and said, "You just came to the mansion to do business, and you were transferred from the army, right?" There are three of you? ”

This is not the first time I've responded to this.

"Yes," I replied with a nod, "there are three of them, Master Wan, Ah Rong, and me." ”

The squire stood in front of me.

He told me that he was on duty at night, and that I should know where the other two were.

I couldn't help but look at him and asked, "Excuse me, Ah Rong was called by your people for questioning, and he hasn't come back yet." ”

I thought about it and said, "There are ...... Master Wan, who was with us, ran out of tools after taking inventory, so he went to find someone...... Said he went to the town to buy something. ”

"I haven't been back in the middle of the night until now, what the hell is going on?"

The attendant looked at me and said, "You've all arrived here and know what you're going to do next, why do you ask so much?" ”

"When I was called away, there was always something wrong, and I would naturally come back when it was time to come back."

He looked at me in a tone that made sense.

I was speechless!

I can't say he's wrong, I guess he doesn't even know!

"The man who worked with you is now called in for questioning," continued the attendant after a pause, "and he thinks of you, saying that he didn't bring anything to eat for the night." ”

The attendant mentioned it should be Ah Rong!

I looked at him with some suspicion in my eyes.

He looked at my expression and immediately answered: "Don't worry, it's a good thing, isn't it not that you haven't eaten enough?" You can come with me. ”

...... I followed the attendant through the woods, turning a corner and onto another path in the houseyard.

As I walked, I finally saw the legendary Patrolman.

Thinking that I had seen them in the Sealand Palace, there was a sense of intimacy at that moment.

The attendant greeted them familiarly, and I looked at the men quickly and bowed my head in silence.

"Where are you taking people with you?"

The attendant replied with a smile: "He is a craftsman who has come to the courtyard to do things, and he has something to look for, so let them start work early in the morning." ”

When the patrol had passed, the squire who had led the way in front of me turned back to me and said, "Come with me." ”

I bowed my head and fell silent, followed in his footsteps, and continued walking in the courtyard.

...... The sky was slightly bright, and Yuan Xiu, who had not slept for a long time, turned over and woke up.

She lay on the bed and looked at the top of the tent, thinking about what her grandfather said before, and couldn't help but pout.

She got up from the house and walked lightly to another room to fetch water and wash up......
