"It's been almost two months, but your brother is still in prison, and he promised to come down early, but he didn't do it now, which makes the Wang family's face ...... where to put it."

Seeing that Wang Huaiqing just bowed his head and didn't speak, Lin said again.

She was in a good mood tonight, so she said a few more words.

"Mother, there is really no one I know in my yamen......"

Wang Huaiqing was helpless.

If he could help, he would have helped.

It was also because of Wang Yue'e that he lied with Ye Xiaoyu at the beginning, and now that his sister has married Shun Lì, he doesn't want Ye Xiaoyu to take the risk of asking the young master of the Zou family for help because of this matter, and he has no one he knows in the yamen, so the whole thing has reached an impasse.

"Do you really not want to go?"

As if he had seen through Wang Huaiqing's thoughts, Lin waved his hand and let the little maid beside him leave.

"Isn't that the second grandmother of the Zou family now?"

Lin said, and glanced at Wang Huaiqing with a deep face.

"I heard that as soon as she entered the door, she gave birth to a boy for Master Zou, and the mother is expensive with the child, but now it is ......"

"Mother, I'm a little tired, go back to the room and sleep first. You also rest early......"

Hurriedly interrupting Lin's words, Wang Huaiqing lowered his head and walked towards the east wing.

Although Lin usually can't stop with one mouth, he rarely interrupts Lin's words like this, even when Lin scolded Wang Yue'e, he didn't interrupt so abruptly.

But he was in a really bad mood today, and he couldn't accompany Lin to nag at all, and he felt tired even standing in the yard.

And the reason why there is such a feeling. Most of them come from a person named Tian Yuyi.

More than two years have passed since this incident, Wang Huaiqing feels that he has been relieved, but he didn't expect to hear Ye Xiaoyu mention it like this today, but he is still full of anxiety. This kind of desire to shout should be called "anxiety", right? Wang Huaiqing himself couldn't figure it out.

Because of Tian Yuyun's affairs, he basically didn't deal with the people in the Rongzhou Yamen, in fact, his main business place was in Yuejing, and he usually didn't have anything to do in the Yamen. At the beginning, he didn't even go home for the New Year's holiday, and stayed in Yuejing City, just to avoid returning to Rongzhou to touch the scene.

Now that matter is in the past. He felt like he was completely free. In such a situation, shouldn't you be happy when you hear Ye Xiaoyu say that Tian Yuyan is doing well? Why is he in such a bad mood?

I knew just now that Ye Xiaoyu was going to Zou Mansion because I was afraid of running into Tian Yuyi. Wang Huaiqing deliberately did not go with Ye Xiaoyu. But when I was about to get to the door. thought of Ye Xiaoyu's skinny. To go to Zou Mansion, I have to pass through several alleys, and I still can't rest assured when I think about it. And he folded it back again. Originally, I planned to wait at the mouth of the alley, but after standing for a while, I saw that it was dark, and Ye Xiaoyu hadn't even come out yet, but she started to worry again in her heart, so she walked in. I knew that my mood would be so bad, so I didn't go to Ye Xiaoyu. Anyway, he is a big man, even if he walks at night, he doesn't have the problem of robbing color.

He was so silent just now, with Ye Xiaoyu's smart brain, he must have thought of something, eh, thinking like this, Wang Huaiqing began a new round of depression.

It's just that this round, he doesn't know what he's depressed about.

*

Because of the increase in the fixed orders of Zou Mansion, Ye Xiaoyu became more energetic and got up earlier every day. The basic itinerary of each day is: get up at the fourth watch, make all the pastries, change the taste and pick a few to send to Tian's family, and then come back and open the door of the shop to start the day's life.

The days are busy and regular, so busy with a life-making life that she has no extra time to think about it, Ye Xiaoyu feels that this is a great good thing.

Wang Huaiqing has not appeared since that day, maybe because he was busy with the medicinal material business, maybe because of the sentence that Ye Xiaoyu asked that day, in short, no matter what it was based on, after that day, Wang Huaiqing did not appear in the shop again. But because of the addition of several new pastries to the shop, Ye Xiaoyu was busy every day, and she didn't have the heart to think about the Wang family.

Cai's son, Wang Huainian, was finally released from prison after two and a half months of detention.

Before that, although Ye Xiaoyu didn't open her mouth to ask Zou Youheng, she went to the yamen to inquire. It was only after inquiring that she completely gave up the idea of helping Cai's.

Wang Huainian is not a "good baby" as Wang Shouxin and his wife said at all, he is actually an idle social idler, in addition to eating and drinking, he also likes to flirt with women from good families, especially those girls who live in Huanyi Lane.

The reason why he was imprisoned this time was because he was drunk and ran to Huanyi Lane to tease the girl that day, and he happened to be seen by the woman's father and brother. Not only that, but after the fight, the girl's family also reported to the official. Perhaps because Wang Huai was already notorious, the county government of the North District directly sent arrests to arrest him.

Ye Xiaoyu didn't know Wang Huainian and hadn't seen him, but she felt that there was no need for the county magistrate to lie and lie to her because of such a trivial matter. After knowing the situation, she didn't plan to take care of it, and in such a situation, Ye Xiaoyu had no power or power, even if she wanted to, she couldn't manage it.

When she thought about countermeasures for more than ten days to deal with Cai's, this person didn't appear in her shop, and later Ye Xiaoyu inquired and found out that Wang Huainian had been released.

Although I don't know if it's because the crime is not serious, or for other reasons, but since it has been released, it is even more irrelevant to Ye Xiaoyu, she just needs to take care of her shop, work hard to make money, and strive to buy the vacant land at the back door at the end of the year, and then bring the white horse, Xiaobai, back from Mapu.

Time slipped away in Ye Xiaoyu's busyness alone, and in a blink of an eye, the New Year was approaching, it was already the twenty-first day of December, and every household in Rongzhou City had begun to prepare for New Year's goods, and the streets were much more lively than before, full of red New Year's paintings and all kinds of New Year's goods. But Ye Xiaoyu doesn't have this trouble, she has only one person, except for buying couplets and sticking them on the door of the shop, she doesn't need to Zhang Luo for anything else.

Although it is said that there is no need to Zhang Luo's New Year's goods, but there are still some preparations for food, few shops open before the eighth day of the first lunar month, and during this time, Ye Xiaoyu must reserve enough food.

In the past half a year, the shop has earned more than 100 taels, and after the calculation that day, Ye Xiaoyu didn't sleep happily all night. Taking advantage of the money in hand, she immediately contacted the owner of the vacant land at the back door, because the geographical location was not good, and it was a waste for the vacant land to be idle, so as soon as the person heard that Ye Xiaoyu wanted to buy it, he agreed very happily, and the price was cheaper than what he said before.

After the two negotiated, Ye Xiaoyu bought the vacant land at the back door of the shop for 90 taels of silver, plus the fees and taxes for registration with the municipal office, almost more than 100 taels. Now that she has land, Ye Xiaoyu plans to start construction after the year, build a two-room house, and then surround a yard and make a stable, so that she doesn't have to lay the floor anymore, and Xiaobai doesn't have to stay in Mapu anymore.

"Ahem—"

On this day, Ye Xiaoyu was wiping the counter with a rag, and suddenly there was such a sound in front of her.

After looking up to see the person standing in front of the counter, she continued to keep her head down and work.

"Hey, there's business coming, and you don't greet it?"

Zou Youheng pretended to be surprised and asked.

"What are you going to buy?"

Ye Xiaoyu said without raising his head.

Thinking that he owed himself five taels of silver and hadn't paid it back now, Ye Xiaoyu couldn't put on a good face to this person.

"Boss Ye, your attitude towards me is too bad, right?"

Zou Youheng leaned in front of the counter, holding his chin with one hand, staring at Ye Xiaoyu playfully.

"When are you going to pay me back?"

Originally, because of Wang Huaiqing's words, Ye Xiaoyu was very jealous of this Zou Youheng, for fear that he would find someone to take revenge on him, but through the fact that he went to Zou's house to deliver pastries for more than two months, Ye Xiaoyu found that this person did not seem to be as terrifying as Wang Huaiqing said, at most, he was fake and serious on the surface, but in fact, he was very good on the inside.

That's why she dared to ask Zou Youheng for money directly now, although she knew that he would not be able to return it to herself.

"Huh? Do you remember all this time? It's only five taels, your dignified Boss Ye, don't take it to heart......"

Zou Youheng laughed, as if Ye Xiaoyu was telling a very funny joke.

Glancing at him fiercely, Ye Xiaoyu walked directly inside to clean the rag and ignored him.

"Hey, I want a cup of milk tea, and that round pastry with a milky flavor."

didn't care about Ye Xiaoyu's attitude at all, Zou Youheng walked directly into the shop, sat on the chair and began to order with a big grin.

"Did you bring any money today? Young Master Zou? ”

Shaking off the water in his hand, Ye Xiaoyu looked at Zou Youheng, who looked like a big man, and said.

"Add me a little mint leaf to the milk tea......"

Ignoring Ye Xiaoyu's question, Zou Youheng said to himself.

Looking at the scoundrel sitting on the chair and eating openly, Ye Xiaoyu pursed her lips, her face full of speechlessness.

"Where are you from? The décor of this shop is very special. ”

Seeing that Ye Xiaoyu had turned around and was busy working at the counter, Zou Youheng was bored sitting there, so he asked again.

"Why do you ask so much? I don't have the money to ask so much. ”

Ye Xiaoyu said angrily while making milk tea for Zou Youheng. This person has only met a few times, and he doesn't even bother to pretend to be docile on the surface.

"I'll just ask. Moreover, you send pastries to my second mother all day long, and she looks so beautiful, how can I see that you don't have any temptation? ”

The movements in his hands stagnated for a moment, and Ye Xiaoyu felt that this question was really funny.

"You think all the people are like you?" (To be continued......)
