Chapter 758: Sit Tight
Ye Jinyu took it and looked at it several times, "And Dilian, there are love poems, not bad, are you giving them to me?" β
"Sister, you're not serious again." Qin Miaoyin slapped her on the arm, and took back the purse and hid it in her arms, for fear that she would snatch it.
Ye Jinyu waved his hand disdainfully, and said sourly: "No, it's not, as for protecting it so tightly, there is no humanity of the opposite sex." β
Qin Miaoyin touched her chest and smiled, knowing that she was not really angry, so she pushed over a plate of dim sum to please her.
Ye Jinyu ate a piece, clapped his hands and stood up, "It's not early, I have to go back to accompany Hou Ye for dinner, and I will go." β
This time, Qin Miaoyin was sour, pursed her lips and waved her hand aggrievedly and dissatisfied.
Ye Jinyu had just returned to Shen Pavilion, and as soon as he entered the courtyard gate, he met Zhou Si.
"Uncle Zhou?" Ye Jinyu greeted him, and it seemed that he was about to leave.
Zhou Si was originally worried, but when he saw her, he couldn't help but ease his expression, smiled slightly, and arched his hand: "Miss Tong, how are you doing these two days?" β
"It's not bad, how does Uncle feel?" Ye Jinyu greeted him.
Zhou Si smiled and nodded, indicating that he was also fine.
Ye Jinyu glanced behind him, no one followed, and asked, "Did Master Hou call you here?" β
Zhou Si shook his head and said: "I came to see Hou Ye myself, my life was saved by you, and I have been bothering in the Hou Mansion for so long, I heard that Hou Ye was injured, so I thought about coming to visit, which can be regarded as a little bit of my heart." β
Ye Jinyu nodded.
Zhou Si said again: "I'll go back first and say goodbye." β
"Walk slowly." Ye Jinyu watched him walk out of the Shen Pavilion before turning around and walking inside.
The door of the flower hall was open, and there was no one inside. The door of the study was closed, but the lark was guarding outside, so he knew that Hou Ye must still be inside.
Ye Jinyu raised his feet and just took two steps over there, and the people in the study suddenly opened the door from the inside, as if they had an electrocardiogram, and the eyes of the two met unexpectedly in the air.
Li Sui raised the corners of his mouth, closed the door of the study and walked over, calmly taking her hand and walking towards the flower hall.
"I met Uncle Zhou just now, did you say anything?" Ye Jinyu shook his hand back and took the opportunity to ask.
She can't let her know anything else, Zhou Si is a witness about her parents, and this can't be hidden from her anymore.
She didn't believe that Zhou Si was just here to visit Master Hou!
Li Sui led her into the flower hall and sat down, and said casually: "It's been so long, he hasn't remembered the previous things, Ben Hou had some doubts, so he asked him to come over and ask." β
Ye Jinyu raised his eyebrows, "What is the result, does it seem to be pretending?" β
Li Sui shook his head, "I can't see it, Mr. Jiang also said that it is a miracle that he can wake up this time, and it is inevitable that his mind will be damaged." β
"Don't you think it's strange that you can't remember the most important things alone." Ye Jinyu frowned and said, "And the mastermind who poisoned him last time, have you found out who it is?" β
While he was talking, someone had already come in to deliver food.
Li Sui patted the back of her head, "I already have some eyebrows, but I can't be sure who it is, I'll tell you when there is a result." Let's go, it's time to eat. β
Ye Jinyu didn't continue to ask, feeling a little unhappy in his heart, now does the Hou Ye plan to hide everything from her and only tell her one result.
Even if the reason he did this was to protect her, such a move made her feel despised and depressed.
After lunch, Li Sui and Ye Jinyu were tired for a while, and then went to work again.
Ye Jinyu tried him coquettishly and wanted to stay by his side to accompany him, but he was politely rejected by the other party with an excuse.
Now she was even more sure of her guess.
Ye Jinyu went back to Fuyuan depressedly, sat and comforted himself for a while, and his mood eased a little.
Yu Guang ran to the sewing basket next to him, and his mind skipped the purse embroidered by Miaoyin for Xing Jing, and his hand touched into the basket uncontrollably.
I was immediately deflated in my heart, just who made her like him. Even if she is so angry now, what she thinks in her heart and what she does in her hands is all related to him.
What she said casually at her aunt's place before, now she really takes it to heart.
She also wanted Hou Ye to wear the purse embroidered by her.
In the next few days, Hou Ye's place became busier. Every day, except for a few words during dinner, Hou Ye spends the rest of his time in the study, and occasionally goes out, and he goes there for most of the day.
This is a fatal blow for young couples who have just entered into love. Ye Jinyu was very entangled every day, and complained for a while that the Hou Ye didn't have time to accompany her, and when she got it, she began to lose her heart. After a while, I felt that I was naΓ―ve and ignorant, and the Hou Ye was under the burden given by His Majesty, and the recent Shanbei Province was indeed very unpeaceful, isn't it normal for him to have no time to accompany her.
Ye Jinyu, even if you can't help, you must not hold back.
After staying in this mood for a few days, something suddenly happened in the house.
Early this morning, Ye Jinyu went to the next door to have dinner with Hou Ye, but learned that he had gone out. Feeling lost, Wuzi adjusted her mood for a while, thinking that she hadn't been to see Zhou Si for two days, so she turned around and went to Mingshu Garden.
The gate of Mingshu Garden was closed, and it opened with a light push, and the courtyard was extremely quiet, and there was not even a single figure.
Ye Jinyu frowned strangely, thinking if Zhou Si had a headache again, and everyone was taking care of him inside?
She thought as she walked inside, and the door opened with a slight push, but the sight made her gasp.
Seeing two small servants in the flower hall, she hurried up to check their status, fortunately, there was still a pulse and heartbeat, and there were no obvious external injuries on the body. 186 Chinese Network
Looks like someone knocked me out!
Thinking of this, her heart tightened, and she hurriedly ran to the bedroom, and sure enough, there were two small servants inside, and the bed was empty, and there was no Zhou Si there.
The thin quilt was still spread out, and she touched the heat on the bed again, it seemed that the person had already been taken away.
Ye Jinyu ran out quickly, and when he arrived in the courtyard, he suddenly stopped and looked around the courtyard for a while.
No, she remembered that there should be guards around this courtyard secretly guarding, how could it be so easy for someone to be robbed, but there was no movement in the house for so long.
"Come on, come on, come on......" Ye Jinyu raised his voice and shouted in the courtyard for a while, but no guards appeared, and in the end, he only recruited a small guy who passed by nearby.
"Miss Ye, what do you command?" The little girl hurriedly ran in, but saw that Ye Jinyu was the only one in the courtyard, and she didn't see anything wrong, and she was surprised what she was calling.
Ye Jinyu's face was very bad, and he thought for a while before saying, "Go and call the lark and the housekeeper over." β
Qu Yu went out to run errands with the Hou Ye, and they are the only people who know the situation in the house best.
The lark and Steward Ling rushed over and saw the situation in the house, they were all shocked, and the lark shouted: "This, how can this be, who is so bold as to dare to rob people from our Hou Mansion!" β
Ye Jinyu looked at them and said, "It doesn't have to be robbed, maybe it's still hidden in the mansion?" Let's ask someone to check the house first. β
"What Miss Ye said is reasonable, the villain will go and gather people to investigate." After Steward Ling finished speaking, he withdrew his hand.
Ye Jinyu looked at the lark again and asked: "I remember that there are guards around Mingshu Garden, why didn't anyone come out after I called for a long time just now, could it be that everyone was recruited, then this person is too powerful." β
The lark scratched his head and explained: "The girl doesn't know, too many things have happened recently, many guards have been sent out to do things, and the house is short of manpower, which is only enough for large-scale prevention." Even those people near Shen Pavilion have withdrawn, and the people from Ming Shuyuan's side have also withdrawn a few days ago. β
Ye Jinyu thought about it carefully, there were indeed a lot fewer guards in the mansion recently, and even the Hou Ye was busy. Zhou Si has lived here for so long, and in this situation of urgent need for manpower, I am afraid that everyone will take it lightly.
Now is not the time to hold accountable, finding someone is the most important thing.
"Has there been any living people in the house recently? Including food delivery vendors or something. Ye Jinyu asked.
Skylark shook his head, "Steward Ling knows this kind of thing best, I'll call someone over." β
As a result, after asking Steward Ling, there was no suspicious person in the house recently.
At present, I can only check all the people in the house first.
Hou Ye was busy outside and didn't know when he would be able to come back, Skylark and Steward Ling took people to check in the mansion for two hours, and finally found no trace of Zhou Si, and no one disappeared for no reason.
Ye Jinyu frowned, there is no problem, is it possible to run Zhou Si or himself?
That's right, why can't he run by himself, in fact, judging from the situation in Mingshu Garden, there is no trace of a fight inside, and a few little guys fainted very quietly, as if they were knocked unconscious without defense.
I don't know if those little guys are awake now, what is the truth of the matter, they know best.
"Skylark, how are those people in Mingshu Garden doing now?"
"They were all sent to Mr. Jiang, and the villain heard that they didn't seem to be knocked unconscious, but drugged."
"Drugged? Have you all woken up? Ye Jinyu asked in surprise.
The lark shook his head, "This elixir is very strong, ordinary antidotes don't work, Mr. Jiang is administering needles to them." β
"Okay, let me know as soon as they wake up." Ye Jinyu thought for a while, and then said, "Then send someone to look for it along the two roads leading to the Hou Mansion." β
The lark was ordered to retreat.
Ye Jinyu returned to Fuyuan listlessly, and just sat down to drink two sips of iced sour plum soup, Ling Zhao came in and said, "Girl, Mrs. Qi is here." β
"Auntie?" Ye Jinyu put down the bowl and said, "Invite her in." β
Ling Zhao said embarrassedly: "Mrs. Qi said that she was looking for you for something important, please go out for a while, and she will wait at the gate of the mansion and not come in." β
Ye Jinyu immediately stood up and walked out, what was going on so much, her aunt didn't even enter the door.
There was a carriage parked not far from the gate of the Hou Mansion, the window was open, and Ye Jinyu saw his aunt sitting inside at a glance.
She walked over briskly and saluted her aunt outside the window.
"Jin Yu, your grandmother is sick, come back with me to have a look." Mrs. Qi said with a heavy face.
Ye Jinyu was stunned, turned around and explained to Ling Zhao, and then climbed into the carriage. When she sat down, the carriage moved, "What kind of illness does my grandmother have, is it serious?" β
Mrs. Qi held her hand, bowed her head and said: "I accidentally fell two days ago, and I woke up after a day of coma. I need to drink medicine to recuperate, but I am afraid that I will not be able to get out of bed for ten days and half a month. β
"And how is my grandmother doing?" Ye Jinyu asked distressedly.
Mrs. Qi shook her head, "Wake up, wake up, but keep talking nonsense and keep talking about you." β
Ye Jinyu held his aunt's hand back, pursed his lips and stopped talking.
To the west of the city, Missionary Place, is an entire residential area, with only one main street with shops and not many people. The rest are dotted with private houses, ranging from ordinary to luxurious.
It is said that many businessmen and officials will buy private houses here, and it will be clean.
Qu Yu traced for a long time before he found this ordinary house hidden in it, called "Xianting".
Li Sui sat in the carriage and observed for a long time, but he didn't see any movement in the house.
"Are you sure it's here?"
