"By the way, how is the matter of the Ye family that you asked you to investigate?"

Skylark shook his head, "That Deputy Envoy Ye is very fine, the entire Ye Mansion is impermeable by him, and the news that can be heard outside is all painless, and our people are still trying to find a way to sneak into the Ye Mansion to find out." ”

"Well, as soon as possible." Li Sui thought for a while and explained, "In addition, except for the people involved in this matter, Zhou Si's affairs can't be known to others, and the guards don't stop looking for Zhou Si." ”

"Yes, the villain remembered, and the villain retired first."

Li Sui watched the lark take a few steps back, and immediately asked, "Is there any movement in the Fu Garden?" ”

The lark paused, shook his head, and asked suspiciously, "Aren't you okay with Miss Ye when you were in the other courtyard?" Why is it that after returning home, the atmosphere is weird, and you quarrel again? ”

This girl's temperament is not small, and she should have come over to care about his injuries at this time, but now she doesn't even have a condolence.

Li Sui was also angry in his heart, and when he saw that the lark was full of gossip more than concern, he kicked it over, "A crow's mouth, get out of here." ”

The lark hurriedly dodged, and the thief ran away.

In April, during the Mengxia season, the weather is getting warmer and warmer, Ye Jinyu needs to wear two layers of clothes every day to remove his underwear, and a thin layer of sweat will appear on his body after a little activity.

She proposed several times that she wanted to take off the inner layer, but was vetoed by Ling Zhao and others, Ye Jinyu was very depressed, and thought about changing the inner layer into short-sleeved shorts, but was rejected again.

Listening to Ling Zhao's chatter in his ear, Ye Jinyu couldn't help but ask her, "Why are you dangling in front of my eyes every day lately, what about your apprentice?" ”

"Girl, do you dislike me?" Ling Zhao pursed his lips aggrievedly.

"Yes, it's very disgusting, you go and play with your apprentice." Ye Jinyu nodded vigorously and waved at her.

Ling Zhao knew that she said this on purpose, and she didn't take it to heart, but just explained: "Qing'er was picked up by Qianzhong girl in the past two days, and she came back two days later, saying that Qing'er had already passed the age of enlightenment, and she was going to find a good school to send him to study. ”

That's right, Yunqing should be seven or eight years old now, and he is at the age of studying. Previously, because of Qianzhong's identity, he couldn't take care of Yun Qing at all times, and Yun Qing was also more willing to follow Ling Zhao, so he first let Yun Qing stay in the Hou Mansion as Ling Zhao's apprentice.

Ignoring his age, Ye Jinyu touched her nose, she remembered that it was said in the book that many big families have their own private schools for the children in the clan to enlighten and teach.

However, the situation in the Hou Mansion of Wu'an is more complicated, even if he wants to invite Mr. to teach in the mansion, the Hou Ye may not be able to agree. Thinking that the two of them were still in an inexplicable cold war, Ye Jinyu immediately gave up this idea.

"Ling Zhao, get ready, let's go back to Qi Mansion." Ye Jinyu got up and ordered.

On the day of Lord Hou's birthday, she also promised her aunt to go back to visit her grandmother, but Miaoyin disappeared that night, and then she went to Tongyuan County.

Returning to the Qi family with gifts, at this hour, my uncle and cousin were on duty in the yamen, Ye Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, and went directly to ask his grandmother for peace.

Along the way, she found that there were still a lot of flowers in the house, so after meeting the old lady, she reminded: "Grandmother, most of your problems are pollen allergies, didn't the doctor say it?" There are so many flowers in the house, and there is even a peach tree in your yard. ”

The old lady's face slowly wrapped in a layer of sadness, and her eyes became distant, as if she remembered something.

Mrs. Qi gently tugged on Ye Jinyu's sleeve beside her, and explained in a low voice: "My father-in-law went early, and my mother-in-law couldn't let go of it all the time. My mother-in-law has always felt very guilty in her heart, so now she has planted flowers and plants in the house, just to use this chat to comfort. ”

Ye Jinyu was moved when he heard it, it turned out that his grandmother and grandfather were so affectionate, and he saw that his uncle did not take a concubine now, so he should have been influenced by his father.

Ye Jinyu saw that his grandmother had fallen into his own contemplation, so he pulled his aunt to chat, and after chatting for a while, he cut to the chase without a trace, "Uncle, do you know which school in the city has the best reputation?" ”

"Academy?" Mrs. Qi looked at her in astonishment, looked at her stomach in surprise, Ye Jinyu blushed, and hurriedly waved her hand to explain: "Don't get me wrong, I'm asking for others." ”

"Really?" Mrs. Qi looked at her suspiciously, saw that she nodded very firmly, and said worriedly: "You have been following Hou Ye for more than half a year, why hasn't there been any movement in this stomach?" Is it that Hou Ye doesn't want it? ”

"No, no, no, no, don't think about it." Ye Jinyu hurriedly pulled Ling Zhao behind him and explained: "She just accepted an apprentice recently, and she has reached the age of studying, so she wants to find a reliable school from him. ”

Mrs. Qi looked at Ling Zhao, and suddenly realized: "It's the child named Qing'er, I've heard Rong'er mention it a few times, and he likes that child a lot." In two days, you can bring him over to me to see, and if you can, I will arrange for him to study with Rong'er. ”

Qifu has its own private school, and in the past, there would be children from the family who came to teach, but in the past two years, many relatives in the clan have gone to other places to develop, so now there are only two children left in the private school, Qi Mingyi and Qi Rong.

In the past, Ye Rutong, Qi Minhui, and Qi Guanyu studied together in a private school, but Ye Jinyu didn't know about it, so when she heard her aunt mention this, she didn't dare to answer casually.

Later, the old lady finally woke up from her memories and pulled Ye Jinyu to say a lot of words. There were several times when Ye Jinyu wanted to ask about her mother, but when she thought of the old lady's reaction last time, and Mrs. Yun's complicated feelings for Yun Xiang in her dream, she didn't ask anything.

Just like Mrs. Yun said, Yun Xiang's existence also made her and her son criticized by outsiders, even if she sympathized with Yun Xiang's life experience, she couldn't treat her as her own daughter without any guilt.

Ye Jinyu felt that the old lady was not a person who was indifferent.

"It's almost noon soon, can't you have dinner and leave?" When Mrs. Qi heard Ye Jinyu say goodbye, she opened her mouth to persuade. Love Me eBook

Ye Jinyu got up and saluted the elders and explained: "I have other things to deal with, so I won't stay for dinner today, and next time I will definitely accompany my grandmother and aunt to eat." ”

A trace of reluctance flashed in the old lady's eyes, but she still waved her hand and said, "That's it, she is not a little girl who doesn't care about things at home now, let her go and get busy." ”

Mrs. Qi sighed and said distressedly: "It's also difficult for us to Jinyu, let's go, my aunt will send you." ”

Ye Jinyu shook his head and smiled, and saluted the old lady again, "Grandmother, Jinyu will leave first, you must take care of your health." ”

The old lady waved at her.

Mrs. Qi sent people to the front yard, and Ye Jinyu asked her to go back, but she didn't expect that as soon as she and Ling Zhao walked to the gate of the mansion, they bumped into Qi Guanyu who came back.

Ye Jinyu glanced behind Qi Guanyu in surprise at the same time, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, fortunately he didn't bump into his uncle.

"Jinyu, when did you come back?" Qi Guanyu looked at her in surprise.

Ye Jinyu saluted him, looked around again, and said in a low voice, "Cousin, can you take a step to speak?" ”

Qi Guanyu nodded, and Ye Jinyu led the person to the back of the carriage, and ordered Ling Zhao and the coachman to walk a little farther away, paying attention to the surrounding movements.

"Last time I was in Tongyuan County, why did my cousin leave suddenly?" Ye Jinyu asked in a low voice.

Qi Guanyu glanced at her suspiciously, Ye Jinyu realized that he might have asked a question that he shouldn't ask, and hurriedly added: "It's okay if it's inconvenient to say." ”

Qi Guanyu shook his head and said: "It's not that I can't say it, it's still about Zhou Si, I suddenly received news that I found traces of Zhou Si outside Yingcheng." ”

Ye Jinyu clenched his palms gently, kept his face calm, and asked, "Where did you find it?" Did the people find it? ”

Qi Guanyu said disappointedly: "No, it was found on a low slope three miles away on the outskirts of the city, but the injured person was a nearby villager, not Zhou Si." ”

Three miles away, it seems to be quite far away from the Xing family's courtyard. Ye Jinyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a straight face: "Cousin, you suspected that there was a traitor in the yamen before, and this time Zhou Si's matter, maybe someone deliberately wanted to break you away, you must be more careful in the future." ”

Why? Didn't you go to Xiangfu either? Qi Guanyu asked in surprise.

Ye Jinyu nodded and told them about their assassination.

Qi Guanyu frowned frequently when he heard this, put his arm on her shoulder and looked up and down, and asked worriedly, "Are you injured?" ”

"No, Master Hou blocked a knife for me, and he was seriously injured. That night was really thrilling, and the next day I learned that you suddenly returned to Yingcheng, and I thought that someone was trying to prevent us from going to Xiangfu. Ye Jinyu smiled at him and said.

Qi Guanyu breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense body also relaxed, but because of this, he found that he had reacted too much, so he quickly withdrew his hand and took a step back unnaturally.

"How is Master Hou now? Did the assassins find it? Qi Guanyu tilted his head slightly and asked.

Ye Jinyu didn't notice his abnormality, but he just thought of the unhappy parting with Hou Ye yesterday, and felt quite depressed.

"Master Hou is no longer in serious trouble, the assassin's matter must be investigated by Master Qu, and I don't know the follow-up situation."

Qi Guanyu heard that her tone suddenly became low, and when he wanted to care, he forced himself to hold back, he felt that his concern for his cousin was becoming more and more abnormal, and he had to resolutely curb it.

"Okay, I told my cousin that I wanted to remind my cousin to pay more attention to the people around him, you should go in quickly." Ye Jinyu shook off the nonsense in his head, cheered up and smiled.

Qi Guanyu hesitated for a moment, but before leaving, he still couldn't help but admonish, "You have to be careful." ”

After leaving the Qi Mansion, Ye Jinyu told Ling Zhao to go to Changshengfang first.

"Are you going to see Chiju in the workshop?" Ling Zhao asked.

Ye Jinyu nodded, "She is Qing'er's sister, and I still have to discuss with her before making a decision about studying." ”

Although the workshop during the day is not as lively as at night, there is a constant stream of customers. Ye Jinyu appeared here in women's clothes, which inevitably attracted everyone's curiosity, but fortunately, the grandmother of the teaching workshop recognized her and knew that she was from the Hou Mansion, so she took the initiative to greet her.

"Why did the girl come here alone today?" Mama warmly invited someone to go upstairs to the private room, asking as she went.

Ye Jinyu asked, "Is Miss Qianzhong here?" ”

The smile on Mama's face paused for a moment, and then she said enthusiastically: "Qianzhong has been unwell for the past two days, and I am afraid that I will be sick to the guests, so I will go to the other courtyard outside the city to raise it." If the girl wants to listen to music, I still have a lot of talent here......"

"Sick?" Ye Jinyu stopped, and after thinking about it, he understood that it was impossible for Qianzhong to bring his younger brother to the workshop, so he had to ask the workshop for leave on the grounds of illness.

Mama saw that she seemed to care about Qianzhong, and couldn't help but feel strange, the women around Hou Ye were really different, knowing that Hou Ye cared for Qianzhong, but she was still like a sister with her, and she didn't know how sincere she was.
