Chapter 120, The He Family

Yu Ying's expression did not change, and there was a hint of a begging smile on the corner of her mouth, and at this time, Ah Ci had already come out with a small plate, followed by the woman.

The silver color quickly disappeared, Yu Ying raised her eyebrows, turned to look at Ah Ci, Ah Ci ran over excitedly, put the plate in front of Yu Ying, and there was a golden moon cake on the plate, although the shape was ugly, but it still exuded an attractive fragrance.

"A-Ying, try it!" Ah Ci beckoned to Yu Ying, Yu Ying sat down at the table, and her eyes widened in surprise, "Sister Ah Ci, this is what you did for me?" ”

Ah Ci stared at the moon cake and didn't raise it: "I'm afraid it's too unpalatable, I'll give you a taste first." ”

The smile on the corner of Yu Ying's mouth froze, but she still reached out to pick up the moon cake and took a bite under Ah Ci's gaze.

Although the outer skin is soft and delicious, the filling inside, Yu Ying is a little difficult to explain.

"How?" Ah Ci looked at Yu Ying expectantly, Yu Ying couldn't bear to tell the truth, but Mu Die snatched the moon cake from his hand and took a bite, Yu Ying smiled in her surprised eyes: "Ah Ci girl, you may still need to practice again, do you want me to teach you, this wild jam filled moon cake is still taught by me to my mother, there are some places to pay attention to, I know better than my mother." ”

Ah Ci immediately ignored Yu Ying, nodded and said, "Then thank you, sister!" ”

Ah Ci followed Mu Die into the kitchen, Yu Ying grimaced at Mu Die's back, picked up the remaining moon cakes and ate them, although they were a little astringent, but they were better than the apricots on the tree, right?

After three failures, the stuffing made by Ah Ci was finally sweet and delicious, when Ah Ci went out with the moon cakes again, Yu Ying fell asleep on the table, Ah Ci walked over gently, pursed his lips, stroked him lovingly, and then slapped his back suddenly, Yu Ying was so frightened that he almost didn't jump up, suddenly raised his head and pulled out the sword at his waist, looked around with his hazy eyes, and saw that it was Ah Ci who sighed and said, "Sister Ah Ci, what are you doing?" ”

"I'm done, I'll give you a taste." Ah Ci smiled very sweetly and pushed the moon cake forward.

Yu Ying looked at the moon cake worriedly, and then looked at Ah Ci, this smile was too sweet, he looked panicked, put the sword back, trembled and picked up the moon cake and put it in his mouth.

"Delicious!"

Ah Ci sighed, "That's good." ”

Standing up, Yu Ying finished eating the moon cakes in two bites, leaned over and said, "Sister Aci will learn to cook a few more dishes, and make them for me in the future." ”

Mu Die on the side interjected: "Your sister is going to get married after all, and the dishes she will cook in the future will also be for her husband, you should find another girl to cook for you." ”

Yu Ying raised her eyebrows proudly, and was about to speak, but Ah Ci reached out and pinched his arm, Yu Ying looked at Ah Ci in confusion, and Ah Ci glared at him and told him to shut up.

Yu Ying pursed her mouth aggrievedly, Mu Die glanced at the two of them inexplicably, and went into the house again with a plate.

"Sister Aci, why don't you let me say that you are my fiancΓ©e?"

Ah Ci gave him a blank look, "You have to let the whole world know that I am your fiancΓ©e?" ”

"That's fine."

"Then don't think I'll marry you."

"Okay, okay, I'm wrong, can't I say it?" Yu Ying grabbed her sleeve, Ah Ci glanced at him with a complicated expression, sighed in his heart, stood up, and said, "I'll go to the kitchen to help." ”

Mu Die went out on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, saying that he was going to the market to buy shoes and things, and Ah Ci also wanted to go with him to see, Mu Die agreed, and Yu Ying naturally followed in vain.

Mu Die and Ah Ci held hands, as close as if they were biological sisters, plus both of them were beautiful, even if they were wearing the most ordinary plain dresses, they still attracted the attention of a large number of pedestrians on the street, Yu Ying followed behind the two like maggots, and glared back when she saw someone staring at Ah Ci.

Mu Die quickly bought the things, Yu Ying said that it was better to go to the restaurant for a meal and then go back, Ah Ci also felt hungry, asked Mu Die, Mu Die had no objection, and the three of them picked a restaurant to go into.

Seeing Nangong Cui'er and Nangong Jiu, Ah Ci and Yu Ying were both stunned, and had to sigh that the so-called rivers and lakes are really small, and they can meet people they know when they come out for a meal.

But the two of them were in a hurry, and they didn't even see Ah Ci and Yu Ying and left the restaurant, Ah Ci was not familiar with each other, and there was no need to go over to say hello, so they found a place to sit down.

Called Xiao Er, ordered a few dishes, Xiao Er was just about to leave, but he tripped over something under his feet, fell a dog gnawed mud, the kettle in his hand fell out, fell far away, the shopkeeper hurriedly came over, scolded and scolded: "You are a lazy and stupid skin, how can you do things so unskillfully, fortunately you didn't hurt the guest officer, don't get up quickly!" Blame me for not giving you food, right?! ”

The little second stood up, cowered and rushed to the backyard, the shopkeeper scolded Xiao Er, and in a blink of an eye, he smiled at Ah Ci and said, "Did the guest officer scare you?" The little one made amends to a few guest officers! ”

Yu Ying waved his hand and said, "We weren't scared, and you don't have to blame that little er." ”

The shopkeeper arched his hand and left with a smile, Mu Die bowed down and picked up a red jade wrench from the ground - the culprit who tripped the shopkeeper.

"This seems to be very valuable." Ah Ci leaned over and looked at it, Yu Ying said: "This is blood jade, the middle is inlaid with moonstone, and the small circle around it is crystal, to be honest, this wrench is really ugly." ”

It's really not exquisite, but with a heavy weight in his hand, Ah Ci said: "Ah Ying, do you know what this thing is?" There seems to be an inscription in it, so it won't be an important token of some sect, right? ”

"Possibly." Yu Ying touched her chin and thought about it, "Let's keep it first, if something important is lost, there will definitely be rumors on the rivers and lakes, let's just wait." ”

Ah Ci nodded, Mu Die handed the wrench to Ah Ci, Ah Ci took the wrench and put it into his personal money bag, this money bag has been tossing and turning with him for a long time, and Ah Ci thinks it's very strange, and there are exquisite bones she stole from Sun Xian Lin inside.

The moment he touched the delicate bones, Ah Ci's heart trembled, but he quickly regained his calm, Xiao Er had already brought the dishes, and several people left the restaurant after eating.

Seeing a carriage passing by, Mu Die stopped, looked back at the carriage, and Ah Ci wondered, "What's wrong with my sister?" ”

Mu Die handed over the things in his hand to Ah Ci and said, "You go back first, and I'll come back later." ”

"Hey......" Before Ah Ci's words could be spoken, Mu Die had already left, Yu Ying looked at the carriage and frowned, Ah Ci turned around and said, "Ah Ying, did my sister follow the carriage?" ”

Yu Ying nodded, "It should be." ”

"We were supposed to stay for my sister's business, but it's not good to leave it like this, why don't we go over and have a look?"

Yu Ying strongly agreed.

The two asked the pedestrians on the side of the road about the origin of the carriage, and the pedestrian said that it was the carriage of the He family in the west of the city, this He family is a rich family in Yucheng, doing the weaving business, and the government also has some relationship, in short, it is very powerful, but since the death of the little son of the He family, it has ...... At this point, the person who answered stopped talking and hurried away.

The two inquired about the specific location of the He family, and went over, but in broad daylight, the gate of the He family was closed, and there were cobwebs on the gilded door plaque, and there was no guard at the door of a big family like the He family. Yu Ying stepped forward and buckled the tiger head buckle on the gate.

There was no movement for a long time, and Yu Ying even suspected that when no one lived in this courtyard, the door slowly opened.

The one who opened the door was a girl who looked as big as Ah Porcelain, wearing a purple fairy dress and a dark long gown, her long black hair was curled into a bun coiled behind her head, and there were two white silk flowers and a white jade hairpin between them, revealing a fair and slender neck.

"Who are you?" The girl asked, her voice so thin that she couldn't hear it unless she listened carefully.

Yu Ying said: "Sorry to disturb, we are here to find Young Master He Yunhe, we are his friends." ”

Ah Ci looked at Yu Ying with round eyes, and Yu Ying continued: "Is he there?" ”

The girl shook her head, "Big brother is out, do you want to come in and wait for him?" ”

Yu Ying and Ah Ci nodded in unison, and the girl opened the door wide and let the two in.

Entering the door is a patio, in the center of the planting of a large banyan tree with flourishing leaves, although it has entered autumn, but it is still lush, surrounded by all kinds of flowers and plants, although the gate is dilapidated, but the yard is another vibrant scene, A porcelain and Yu Ying glanced at each other, the girl said: "My name is He Mi, I am the third lady of the He family, He Yun is my eldest brother." ”

Ah Ci looked at He Mi's hair, and suddenly asked, "Are you already married?" ”

He Mi was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and said: "My husband is a son-in-law and lives with me in the He family, but I got married to give my second brother joy." ”

I see, Yu Ying and Ah Ci said in their hearts.

"It may be a bit presumptuous to ask like this, I heard that the He family is a big family in Yucheng, why don't they even have a servant, and the gate looks very dilapidated."

He Mi stopped at his feet, turned to look at the two, and Ah Ci saw her embarrassed, so he waved his hand and said, "It's okay if you don't say it." ”

"Because since my second brother died, our mother has been insane. My second brother was in good health, but he began to get sick after getting married, and his body gradually weakened, and he passed away a year later. So my mother thought that the second sister-in-law killed the second brother, and after the second brother died, she drove the second sister-in-law out, and she disappeared a few months later, and we haven't found it yet. The eldest brother is a scholar, and he has no intention of managing business matters, and now only me and my husband are in charge of the family. ”
