"I'll just sit there for a while." Cen Chi raised his hand and rubbed his chest and immediately put it down, "Go and go back quickly!" β
Xiao Qiang hesitated for a moment and then let go of Cen Chi, and said uneasily: "Okay then, I'll be back soon." With that, she trotted out of the garden and headed straight for the big kitchen.
After Cen Chi watched Xiao Qiang's back disappear in the cascading garden trees, he raised his hand to his chest again, rubbed his beating heart, and sighed secretly: It's only been a few days, so it's not like this!
After sitting for a while, the palpitations gradually eased a little. At this time, he suddenly heard the voices of two people talking from outside the garden, and the content of the conversation became clearer and clearer as the two men approached.
"The girl in Honghuayuan is really beautiful enough, but today Brother Mu broke the bank."
"Brother Feng is talking about this, Brother Feng's kindness to Mu, Mu has always kept it in his heart, and today's treat is to repay Brother Feng's kindness."
"Hey! Not to mention what to repay, with Brother Mu's talent, there will eventually be a prominent day without having to work hard. Besides, it is really an honor to meet and meet friends with Brother Mu, and it is too late to be happy, so how can there be any reason to ask for anything in return. β
"Brother Feng is chic and open-minded, no wonder the top flower jade girl of the Red Flower Garden named your name, she is clear-hearted!"
"Where, where and where, one day there will be a chance to do something for Xiangye like Brother Mu, and I will definitely invite you back once at that time, so that Huayu is only allowed to accompany you."
"Haha, in fact, I didn't do anything embarrassing, it was Xiangye's generosity that rewarded me with a lot of money."
"Oh? That's it...... It's not a piece of wood! However, looking at the talented people in the whole house, the person who can have such a technique is none other than Brother Mu! β
"Well, this one is relatively simple...... In fact, the trouble is this piece, which took half a year to complete. β
"Yo! It's not ......"
"Ah......h
The conversation between the two men was interrupted in a chorus of surprise. At the same time, the two of them saw Cen Chi sitting under the tree. Cen Chi was about to look at them, but his gaze was attracted by something that rolled down to his heels.
The expressions of the two people at this time seemed to be obviously a little surprised, they didn't expect that they would meet Cen Chi here so late, and they all looked stunned.
Cen Chi naturally picked up the thing in front of his heel and glanced at it, and then there was a look of surprise in his eyes. But at this time, the night was deep, and although there was a faint moonlight in the sky, it could be obscured by the shade of the tree above him, and even the outline of his figure was a little blurred when he sat in the shade. How could the two of them standing a few steps away catch the discoloration in his eyes so quickly?
Cen Chicai looked at the things in his hand for a while, and then felt that his hands were empty. One of the two men standing across from him was unpleasant. Just took the things in his hand away! Although this thing was not Cen Chi's in the first place, the other party's move was not rude.
However, for Cen Chi, this offense was really insignificant compared to the impact of what he had just seen on his mind.
Looking up slightly, the two stood in the moonlight, one after the other. He knew them all.
Standing a little ahead, he had just taken that thing from his hand, and the middle-aged man who still had some panic on his face at this time was Muji. Among the many talented people in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Muji is good at carving seals of wood and stone. He usually helps the third prince of the Prime Minister's Mansion to polish jade seal wood carvings, and for the rumors that he is helping the Prime Minister to imitate the official seal at the same time, there are few such gossips in the Prime Minister's Mansion. But it has never been broken.
It was Feng Shi who hadn't moved since he stood still just now. It is said that he is clever and eloquent, but he has never done much, and his only action is to recommend a few capable people for the third prince of the Prime Minister's Mansion. The wooden foundation that is good at seal carving is what he recommended.
Feng Shi's rumored good eloquence has always been used among the dozens of capable people in the Prime Minister's Mansion. These aliens, who have a skill but do not have much fame in the world, usually have occasional friction, and most of them are in harmony with him.
Seeing Muji's rough demeanor, although Cen Chi didn't say anything, Feng Shi, who had not moved, still walked over quickly. first blamed Mu Ji, and then implicitly flattered Cen Chi.
Muji also knew that what he had just done was inappropriate. Regarding Feng Shi's reproach, his face also showed a little apology that seemed to be genuine. Putting the thing that made him nervous in his arms, he apologized to Cen Chi under Feng Shi's faint instructions.
Cen Chi stood up and returned the salute, indicating that it was okay.
Feng Shi on the side saw this, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Among those capable people in the mansion, his various sources of information are the most flexible-I don't know if it's because his brain is too sober, Xiangye basically didn't give him a chance to do a practical thing-in short, Feng Shi knew very well in his heart that the person in front of him would not be so easy to offend, but he must not be offended.
He also knew that this person had been busy with things that were very important to the third son of Xiangye recently, so even if the little friction just now seemed to be okay now, he still had to care out of friendliness: "Brother Cen, it's so late, why are you staying here?" I heard that you have been busy with the affairs of the third son in the past few days, don't neglect your body. β
"Thank you Brother Feng for the reminder." Cen Chi smiled slightly, and said: "I was also asking for trouble, I didn't eat dinner, and now I feel very hungry again, so I'm going to go to the kitchen to get something to eat." β
Feng Shi was puzzled: "Actually, you can just ask the servant to do such a thing." β
Cen Chi said with a smile: "Thinking that it is not far, I will go by myself." I've been staying in the house for the past few days, and I'm really suffocating in the bottom. β
Feng Shi nodded, and asked curiously: "Forgive me for taking the liberty of being presumptuous, has the matter entrusted by the third prince already been completed?" β
Things are really over, otherwise Cen Chi wouldn't have distracted himself and felt hungry. It's just that although the door of the study is locked, and the results of the past few days of hard work are placed inside, but when he thinks of what the thing he picked up just now is, he unconsciously becomes vigilant, and his answer to Feng Shi's question is naturally not true.
"There's a little bit of wrapping up." Cen Chi's expression was calm and gentle, and he used a slow tone to hide the hesitation in his heart, "It should take another night's work!" β
"Brother Cen should stay up less late and take care of his body." Feng Shi's eyes showed a little worry, then he glanced at Mu Ji on the side, turned around and said goodbye: "It's not early, I'll go back first, Brother Cen should rest early, and be busy during the day!" β
Cen Chi smiled and said goodbye.
Waiting for the figures of the two to completely disappear in the diameter of the garden, Cen Chi, who walked slowly for more than two feet, suddenly walked back with electric steps, his eyes locked on the root of a flower bush, squatted down and picked it up.
A triangular piece of wood was grasped in his hand, and his gaze froze on the block for a moment, his eyes even more confused. This thing is very small, so when another thing fell from Muji's hand just now, the other party didn't seem to notice.
Maybe it's not that you don't notice it, but it's that compared to what the other party 'grabbed' back, such a small piece is not important. Muji was nervous and anxious to retrieve something that seemed to be an official seal, and he only glanced at it in a hurry, but he didn't recognize it clearly. But now the triangular piece of wood he held in his hand was unremarkable, almost like a piece of scrap sawed off by a carpenter who made the furniture, but he could recognize it at a glance.
Because that's your own thing.
"Senior brother...... This is something you never leave with you, and you don't even know that there is a burglar in the house! Cen Chi's heart tightened a little, linking this small piece of wood with the suspected official seal that had been taken away just now, and his eyes were even more puzzled, "Make the seal, what is going on?" β
There was the sound of hurried footsteps in his ears, and the garden was extremely quiet, so Cen Chi could hear that it was Xiao Qiang's footsteps, and his mind was not a little flustered.
Digging open a thin layer of soil with his fingers, he stuffed the triangular wooden block in his hand, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Xiao Qiang, who was holding a plate of buns in his hand, asked with a puzzled face: "Sir, what are you squatting there for?" β
Cen Chi's eyes swept over the slag on his hands, his heart moved, and he said with a smile: "After sitting here for a while, I can hear a cricket crying happily, and I am not afraid of me, so I am going to catch it out and have fun tomorrow when there is nothing to do." β
Xiao Qiang was also amused when she heard this, and smiled happily: "Sir, don't you like to feed donkeys?" When did you like to tease crickets again? β
"You said that naughty donkey, I guess I fed it too much, and it was still picky, and it needed to starve it for a few days." Cen Chi patted the dirt on his hands, and then stood up. At this moment, a strong feeling of dizziness pressed over his head, and before he could react, the foot that had already taken ahead of him was like stepping into an ethereal but unreal cloud.
"That donkey's mouth picks, it shouldn't be that Mr. learned, right?" Xiao Qiang smiled and made a joke, but before she finished saying this, she was horrified to see Cen Chi, who had just stood up, just raised a foot, and the whole person fell straight back like a wall.
"Sir! Mr. ......"

After a sound night's sleep like a dream, the sky outside was bright in the blink of an eye, Shi Yi lay on his back on the bed, and sighed when he opened his eyes: Spring sleep is not aware.
However, he soon sensed that something was wrong in his surroundings.
Outside the house, there was not the slightest chirping of the industrious birds rising early in search of food, but the sound of hammers nailing boards was particularly harshβhe was woken up.
"Huh? When did Dongfeng Building have the experience of starting construction so early? Shi Yi got up and got out of bed in wonder, walked to the door and pulled the handle, but he didn't pull it open! He pulled it harder, but the door still didn't open, but he could look out through a crack in the door, and his face couldn't help but be taken aback by what he saw.
The carpenters who were knocking on the nail board outside the house were nailing their own doors!
ps: To add, on the issue of mutual names, when there is no clear respect for the elder and the younger, the two men call each other brothers, so as to belittle themselves and elevate each other, which can be regarded as self-humility between Sven people!
