Hearing this, Yuebai and Lily also sniffed.

There was indeed a faint smell of smoke in the air, like the smell of paper burning, but when you sniffed it carefully, it seemed to be mixed with the smell of burnt beans. After smelling it for a long time, it even makes people greedy. Yuebai couldn't help but wonder and said, "Isn't it who is baking beans?" ”

"Look at what you said!" Lily laughed out loud, "It's thanks to you that you want to get this, who will bake beans in the house?" ”

This is true.

However, Xie Shuning stood on the path that seemed to have not been carefully cleaned for a while, but he didn't think so in his heart. She carefully stepped on the well-defined pebbles under the soles of her shoes, and walked forward with steady steps, "Go and see what is going on." ”

The Xie family's three-room people are not prosperous, and many places in the house are short of manpower to take care of them. For example, no one has been in the place where Huang's mother wanted to attack Xie Shuning's brothers and sisters before, and now the trail they are walking on now is rarely haunted on weekdays. Although Yuebai is the maid of the long house, she is the son of the Xie family, and she is very familiar with all parts of the Xie family.

The further the three of them walked, the more they felt the smell of smoke in their noses.

It's in the middle of nowhere, and there's not even a single figure around. But Xie Shuning vaguely remembered that if this place turned a corner, it seemed that there was a good place to avoid people. The smell in the wind became stronger and stronger, and Xie Shuning couldn't help but wonder in her heart. Quietly getting closer, she seemed to be able to hear a slight "crackling" sound, could it be that Yuebai really said that someone was secretly roasting beans here?

Just as she was thinking, she suddenly heard a few words with resentment.

"Damn. People, if they can't grasp a man's heart, they will be angry at me! If you don't just burn a letter and throw it in the brazier, you have to let me come out and blow the cold wind. Why don't you spill your pee, look in the mirror and see if you have that delicate life! ”

The more the people inside seemed to talk, the more annoyed they became, and in the end, they had changed their very mean words, and cursed bitterly, "Bad thing, wait for me to be an aunt in the future, look at how arrogant you can be Lao Zhuhuang!" ”

Xie Shuning's footsteps froze.

Lily, who followed behind her, frowned tightly, seeing that the place was remote, and hearing something that should not be heard, she couldn't help but worry, and hurriedly dissuaded: "Miss, let's go back." ”

"Shh Xie Shuning was startled, turned her head and put her finger to her mouth, and quickly made a silent movement.

However, when Lily spoke, her voice was not deliberately lowered, and she was already startled!

Xie Shuning turned around, and saw a corner of the blue skirt flashing behind the gray wall at the corner.

She pulled out her feet and chased after her, but she couldn't run fast at all because of her short legs, so she panted and shouted to Yuebai: "Yuebai is going to catch someone-"

No matter what the people inside are doing, as long as it is sneaky, she, the master, has every reason to arrest people. Yuebai was obedient, and when he heard the words, he rushed past her, but Lily was half shocked and half dead, and came to drag her in a panic, and shouted to Yuebai: "What are you going to do, don't come back soon!" ”

They are already too busy to take care of themselves, so where can they take care of the affairs of others. But Yuebai didn't listen to her, turned around early and disappeared.

Xie Shuning was trapped in her arms, impatient, and simply said bluntly: "Someone is burning our letters!" ”

Lily was shocked, and her hand around her couldn't help but loosen slightly. Xie Shuning took advantage of this kung fu to break free and ran over.

Before she could stand still, she saw Yuebai scuffling with a girl in a green dress. She knew that Yuebai's strength had always been small, so she was not worried, and instead looked towards the place where the black smoke was rising. In the corner of the wall, a small brazier was lit, which "crackled", and a handful of red beans were scattered on the side. Next to the red beans are a few letters that have just been opened! Xie Shuning saw it clearly, pursed her lips tightly and pounced to get the letter. But suddenly a gust of wind arose, and the letter that had been taken out at the top was rolled up and fell into the brazier.

The tongue of fire rose in an instant.

Xie Shuning didn't care about the danger of being burned, so she pulled out the back half of the paper, threw it on the cold ground and desperately trampled the flames with the soles of her boots. He hurriedly leaned over and picked up the remaining letter on the ground and stuffed it into his arms, and then breathed a sigh of relief. Lily caught up, but just stared at her in a daze, and for a moment she didn't know what to do.

However, Yuebai is alert, and has put down the green group of girls in uniform.

Xie Shuning carefully identified the person, but he couldn't remember who was next to Chen.

She simply didn't pay attention to it, and first looked at the half of the dim letter in her hand.

There were only a few words left, and at a cursory glance, she thought it was from her uncle. However, it was half of the burned side, and she couldn't understand the meaning of these words for a while, and only vaguely guessed that her uncle wanted them to leave Beijing quickly. She couldn't help but be stunned.

"Miss, you can frighten the slave! If it is a good one, how can you ask the slave to explain to the wife? Lily finally came to her senses and said in trepidation.

Xie Shuning had no intention of comforting her, and only said to Yuebai: "This person is sneaky, he must not be a good person, take her back and hand her over to her mother." ”

Although she is small, she is well organized, and Lily on the side saw that she didn't care about herself, so she had no choice but to help Yuebai drag people up and escort them back to Zhilanzhai.

On the way back, several people did not avoid people, and this scene made people take a look.

The news immediately spread like wings and quickly spread back to the Jade Tea Temple.

At that time, Chen was disgusted that the maid next to him combed her hair was not good-looking, and she was picky in every way.

It was easy to pick a style that she was happy with, and when she was about to comb her hair, someone rushed in and said that it was the cherry that was caught by the people of Zhilanzhai.

Chen stood up with a glare, her hair still stuck in the ivory comb, and it hurt from being pulled, and she suddenly turned around and slapped the maid who was combing her hair.

The palm hurt hotly, but Chen couldn't care about it.

She wore her hair and spun in place, not daring to stop for a moment.

Among the things that the cherries took to burn, in addition to a few letters, there was also a bag of red beans......

Red beans are also known as acacia beans.

In the past, she was widowed before she got married, and the third old lady gave her a bag of red beans on the night she entered.

There was no one at night, lonely as snow, and the widow's days were so light that they had no color. In the silence of many nights, she relied on counting beans one after another. Now that Xie Yuanmao is back, even if she hasn't completed the house now, she doesn't need this bean anymore!

But this matter was broken by the people of Zhilanzhai!

As long as Chen thought about it, he felt that he had lost his face, and his heart burned.
