Liu Shihua was stunned, and she was skeptical of Ah Chen's words. However, leaving a stranger by his side for no reason is not the style of Liu Shihua.

When Liu Shihua was hesitating, Bai's voice suddenly came from a distance, "Shihua, I heard that you, a strange man from Meifangyuan?" You're still a girl who hasn't been out of the cabinet, and it's not like to talk to men casually. ”

Liu Shihua's heart chuckled, Ah Chen's matter, Liu Shihua was extremely cautious, only a few cronies around him knew about it, how could the Bai family know? Once this matter is known to the Bai family, it is necessary to make a big fuss. The Bai clan suddenly broke into Meifang Courtyard, which clearly wanted to ask the teacher for guilt.

"Madam, you listen to the poems and paintings, things are not what you imagined." Liu Shihua replied stiffly.

"Shut up, I don't want to hear you explain, I want to listen to him explain what the hell is going on!" Bai Shi drank Liu Shihua and didn't even give her a chance to speak. Bai Shi knew that Liu Shihua was sharp and sharp, how could he let her defend lightly, but this person of unknown origin should presumably show flaws.

Liu Shihua was silent, looked sideways at Ah Chen, and secretly sweated in her palms.

"Mrs. Hui, the little one is a distant relative of Sister Miaochun, the family suffered a disaster and came to Jinling for refuge, my sister said that it happened that Meifangyuan lacked a person to do groceries, so she wanted to place the little one here, the second lady didn't nod her head yet, the little one is begging her, please Mrs. take in the little one." Ah Chen clenched his fists, begged bitterly, and said as if it was true.

"Is that so?" Bai asked Liu Shihua with a calm face.

Liu Shihua's heart finally let go, this Ah Chen's lie is quite true, Liu Shihua simply continued to make it up according to Ah Chen's ideas, "It's true." Please take him in, Madame. It should be regarded as accumulating virtue and doing good. ”

Bai Shi glanced at Liu Shihua, and then looked at Ah Chen, "Look at your clothes, you don't look like a child from a poor family." ”

Ah Chen hurriedly answered, "My father originally did some small business, and his family was quite prosperous, but today there was a sudden change, and he lost his family, and his parents were in a hurry, and both died, and the little one had to leave his hometown alone to make a living." ”

Bai Shi was a little suspicious, and originally wanted to drive him out, but after thinking about it, let him stay in the house, if he grabbed any tricks, he would also implicate Liu Shihua in bad luck, why not? After making up his mind, Bai Shi said, "It's okay for me to let you stay, but when you just enter the mansion, it's inevitable to do some dirty work, so you might do it?" ”

Ah Chen nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, as long as Mrs. is willing to take it in, she is willing to do anything small." ”

Bai Shi nodded with satisfaction, "Well, yes, young people should be down-to-earth and willing to work." There is no shortage of people in Meifangyuan, Qiaoyue, you arrange him to the room, and let him help chop wood and pick up water. ”

Liu Shihua's heart tightened, chopping wood and carrying water can be regarded as the dirtiest and most tiring job, and it is Bai's cronies and uncle Zhong who are in charge of the room, if Ah Chen really goes to the room, he will definitely have to suffer a lot. Now that his injuries have not healed, how can he afford such a toss.

"Madam......" Liu Shihua wanted to fight again, but was interrupted by Bai, "Shihua, don't save my face as a housewife in front of outsiders." ”

"Second Miss, Madame's willingness to take me in is a blessing. Ah Chen will show himself well, and he will definitely not embarrass the second lady. Ah Chen took over, he didn't want Bai Shi and Liu Shihua to have any conflict because of himself.

Since Ah Chen said so, Liu Shihua couldn't say anything more, so he had to give up.

"Madam, Ah Chen has just arrived in Meifang Courtyard, he and Miao Chun have been separated for many years, please be kind to Mrs. and let Ah Chen stay in Meifang Courtyard for one night, so that their sister and brother can catch up with each other." Liu Shihua is making the final struggle, striving for this night, so that Ah Chen can recuperate from his injuries.

In order not to show his meanness, Bai reluctantly agreed.

"Miaochun, you give me a good look to find out who leaked the news, how could Madame know about this matter." Liu Shihua has a gentle temperament and rarely gets angry, but this time she can't suppress it, what she hates most is the betrayal of her cronies.

"No need to check, it's me." Ah Chen's voice sounded slowly, and he said very indifferently.

"You?" Liu Shihua looked at Ah Chen in surprise, she never expected that it was Ah Chen who betrayed her. "Why did you do that?"

Ah Chen's face didn't have any expression, and his expression was still indifferent, "I told you, if I can't stay, there is only a dead end." ”

At this moment, Liu Shi painted on the head of the qi, "This qiē is all a trap? ”

Is it because you believe in someone too lightly? Why? Why is it so terrible to have unguarded fellowship with him one moment and tear off the mask the next? Liu Shihua has never been afraid of being calculated, but she can't bear to be calculated by people she doesn't have to defend against.

Ah Chen saw Liu Shihua's anger, but he didn't defend himself, just said lightly, "I'll move to the room now." ”

"Oh, no, your injuries aren't healed yet." Miaochun suddenly felt a little sorry for Ah Chen, since she knew that Ah Chen had helped Liu Shihua find Bu Shao, she was not so disgusted with Ah Chen.

Ah Chen stopped his pace, and seeing that Liu Shihua didn't call him, he didn't look back, and walked all the way out of Meifang Courtyard.

"Miss, the poison in him is not light, Uncle Zhong will definitely be embarrassed in every way when you go to the gang, you can bear it" Miaochun was still a little worried about Ah Chen, but seeing that Liu Shihua's face was gloomy, he could only cautiously persuade him.

Liu Shihua replied coldly, "Even if Uncle Zhong is embarrassed, he is also self-inflicted, what does it have to do with me?" ”

Miaochun stuck out her tongue and didn't dare to say anything more, so she had to pray silently for Ah Chen.

Ah Chen's poison is not a big deal, it is just to deceive Liu Shihua, however, the life in the house is not so easy, Ah Chen has really come to this kind of place for the first time since he was born.

Chopping firewood and carrying water are all physical work, Ah Chen has a martial arts foundation, so it is naturally difficult for him, but Uncle Zhong deliberately finds fault, and Ah Chen can only endure it again and again.

In the middle of the night, everyone went to sleep, and Ah Chen was still fetching water in the yard, and Uncle Zhong instructed him to fill the water tank before dawn for breakfast.

On the first day here, Ah Chen didn't want to cause trouble, so he had to work hard silently. "Brother Gu, I'm not mistaken, right? Did you really run to the room to fetch water? A half-sarcastic, half-teasing voice pierced the silence of the night sky.

Ah Chen threw the bucket on the ground like a vent, "Since you're here, I'll leave it to you here, I'm going to sleep." ”

Ji Yue Gongzi shook his head disappreciatively, "You took care of your own errand, and you want me to clean it up!" ”

Ah Chen raised his eyebrows, "Do you want me to do it myself?" ”
