Encounter an assassin on the way

Qi Rin turned his head and glanced at the lantern, and then pushed Shen Huai away without saying a word.

Along the way, there were some girls and ladies walking along the road carrying all kinds of lanterns, and occasionally a man was next to them.

Shen Huai stared intently at those lanterns, not even knowing where Qi Rin was pushing her.

Qi Rin pushed Shen Huai to a small stall selling lanterns, most of the lanterns on the stall were made of bamboo, and then they were pasted layer after layer of paper on top.

Although it looked a little rough, it didn't affect Shen Huai's liking for them at all.

The two of them stayed in front of the stall for a while, and after a while, they left with a simple lantern.

According to the usual practice, Shen Huai wrote down his wishes on the lantern, and then waited quietly on the river bank to watch it drift away.

Qi Rin had been silently watching the lantern floating in the river.

Wudi, he opened his mouth and said, "This lantern may not float far." ”

Shen Huai was immersed in joy, and suddenly listened to Qi Rin's words, and instantly turned his head to look at him.

What's the matter with this man? How to curse her lantern in a good way.

Qi Rin met Shen Huai's gaze with an innocent expression.

He was just telling the truth, the lantern was just a few layers of paper, and it was not sturdy at first glance.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Shen Huai's lantern to be floated over by another lantern...... Crashed and sunk.

Shen Huai watched as the lantern with her wish written on it gradually became soaked in water and sank into the lake.

Shen Huai turned around again and glared at Qi Rin viciously.

Qi Rin touched the tip of his nose, a little aggrieved.

"Miss." Su Mei walked in with her head bowed.

Shen Huai looked up at her, only to see Su Mei's face hollow, as if he had lost his life.

"Childe has something for me to bring to Miss."

Su Mei repeated the words that Shen Yi had given her without any waves.

Shen Huai raised his eyebrows after hearing this.

After Su Mei finished speaking, she wanted to leave, but Shen Huai shouted to stop her.

"Wait."

Su Mei turned her head expressionlessly, and slowly looked up at Shen Huai, "Miss, do you still have something to tell the slave?"

Her eyes no longer had the light in Shen Huai's eyes when he first saw her, but they were like a pool of stagnant water, and she couldn't be shocked by any waves.

"From tomorrow onwards, you can wait by my side, and you won't have to do all the chores in the courtyard."

Su Mei just glanced at Shen Huai, and then retreated.

Shen Huai shook the porridge in his hand with the spoon in his hand, and said meaninglessly, "Shu'er, how old were you when you followed me?"

Shu'er had been guarding Shen Huai's side, and when she heard Shen Huai ask, she didn't come back to her senses.

"I've been with Miss since I entered the house, and I should have been twelve years old at that time."

Shen Huai took a small sip of porridge and nodded thoughtfully, "Twelve years old." ”

She was only fifteen or sixteen years old.

For some reason, Shen Huai looked at Su Mei's dejected appearance, and he was still a little unbearable in his heart.

Maybe she doesn't have any resistance to the cute girls she gives birth to.

Shen Huai thought so, and drank a few more spoonfuls of porridge.

Shen Yifang's words that Su Mei handed to Shen Huai were actually nothing, they were nothing more than talking about the recent situation of the Shen Mansion, and by the way, Shen Huai was careful about Shen Yuan and Yu Wenying recently.

In fact, Shen Huai couldn't understand why Shen Yuan and Yu Wenying kept holding her. Forget one, you have to get two people together to calculate her. Do you think that if you do this, the IQ will be negative?

Shen Huai, who couldn't figure it out, sighed, threw away the spoon, and drank the small bowl of porridge in one go.

Shu'er looked at Shen Huai's heroic movements, and her eyelids trembled.

The three-day period was fast approaching.

Shen Huai was dug up from the bed by Shu'er early that day, yawning and wrapping himself into a ball.

Before leaving, Shen Huai looked back at his room and suddenly pushed his wheelchair back.

Shu'er stood at the door holding Shen Huai's cloak, looking at Shen Huai who suddenly went back for some reason.

Shen Huai drove the wheelchair to a stop in front of a small cabinet, bent down and opened the drawer in it.

Inside lay a simple little wooden box.

Shen Huai reached out and took it out, put it in his arms.

I have to say, this thing is really a bit awkward.

"Let's go." Shen Huai casually pushed the wheelchair back to Shu'er and shook his hand at her.

Shu'er leaned over slightly, put on the cloak for Shen Huai, and pushed her out of the house.

When they were about to go out, the two happened to bump into Su Mei who came over, so Shen Huai took her with him.

As soon as he heard that he was going to see Shen Yi, Su Mei trembled uncontrollably.

In this way, Shen Huai led the three girls out of the door.

Along the way, Shen Huai saw something novel or delicate little snacks, and he would always stop and buy four servings back.

Su Mei obviously didn't adapt to this way, because in her impression, when the young ladies of the Shen family went out, they were all waiting for them before and after the saddle, carrying things in large bags and small bags.

If the ladies are in a bad mood, they may have to be punished.

Like Shen Huai, who buys snacks for the people around her while shopping, and chats all the way, it is really the first time she has met her.

"Shake, stop." Shen Huai didn't know what he saw again, and shouted vaguely with a chestnut in his mouth.

Bu Shao stopped a little helplessly, "Miss, what do you like again?"

Shen Huai smiled and pointed to a small stall selling masks not far away, and said, "I see that mask is good-looking, why don't you buy a few and come back?"

Bu Shao resigned himself to his fate and took out the silver and walked over.

Just as Bu Shao was carefully selecting a mask, a scream suddenly came from behind her.

Bu Shao immediately turned around, and saw a man in coarse linen clothes approaching Shen Huai with a fierce face, and in his hand was a dagger glowing with cold light.

Bu Shao hurriedly dropped the mask in his hand and got up to rush back.

But...... She seemed to underestimate Shen Huai's lethality.

Before he could hurry back, he saw the man screaming and falling to the ground.

Shen Huai indifferently lowered his sleeves and covered the sleeve arrows in his hands.

Shu'er was frightened by the man, and her face was still pale. Su Mei was better, not out of shape, but also a little frightened.

Who would have guessed that the vendor who was still laughing and shouting one second would turn into an assassin who demanded his life the next.

Fang Cai went to buy a mask, Shen Huai was talking and laughing with Shu'er eating fried chestnuts with sugar, and the middle-aged man in the stall on the side suddenly burst out and pounced on Shen Huai. Shu'er was so frightened that she screamed.

Shen Huai was calm, and before the person got close, he directly shot someone else.

There was an assassination on the street of Jingcheng Street, which naturally caused a wave, and it was not long before a servant came with a knife.

Shen Huai didn't want to entangle with these people more, so he directly moved out of Qi Rin's name. Let them go directly to the mansion to find Qi Rin if they have something.

The officials looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

Shen Huai waved his sleeves, left the half-dead people on the ground to those servants, and walked away with them.

Anyway, Qi Rin will deal with it afterwards, she is too lazy to worry about it again.

Shen Yi and Shen Huai agreed on an inconspicuous teahouse.

"Fifth sister, I haven't seen you for a long time." Shen Yi raised his eyebrows at Shen Huai and smiled.

Shen Huai smiled back and sat down opposite Shen Yi.

Shen Yi was wearing a washed and old robe, and the only thing on his head was a rough wooden hairpin.

No one could have imagined that it was such an unfavored concubine and an adopted daughter who ruined her leg that mastered most of the Shen family's secrets.

Shen Yi was actually very elegant and delicate, like Hsinchu after the rain, which made people look comfortable for no reason.

"You came to me today, shouldn't it be as simple as catching up with the past?" Shen Huai picked up the tea on the table and took a few sips.

She was a little dry when she ate the sugar-fried chestnuts.

Shen Yi smiled slightly: "Naturally not." Fifth sister, do you still remember Shen Ming?"

Shen Huai raised his eyes and glanced at him while drinking tea, "I remember." ”

"Not long ago, Shen Ming found me and said that he wanted to conspire with me for the Shen family's plan."

Shen Huai licked the corners of his mouth and put down the teacup in his hand, "He is not ambitious, and he wants to break Shen Yulang and sit in the position of the head of the Shen family." ”

Shen Yi smiled lightly, "The eldest brother has long been abolished, and in addition to fighting cocks and lackeys with those gentlemen every day, he is looking for girls to listen to small songs." I don't complain about Shen Ming's thoughts. ”

"Yes." Shen Huai seemed to remember something, and continued, "I heard yesterday that the eldest brother had a dispute with someone over a girl in the flower building, and one person simply overturned the three people and snatched the girl. ”

At the end, Shen Huai didn't forget to sigh, "It is worthy of being the next head of the Shen family, and his style of acting is so different." Set an example for us. ”

Shen Yi didn't answer, but glanced at Shen Huai meaningfully.

His fifth sister seems to have changed a lot after leaving the Shen Mansion.

Shen Huai had been discussing with Shen Yi for more than an hour, and when she went back, she happened to be in time for lunch.

Just as Shen Huai was sitting in the front hall eating steamed fish, Qi Rin came back with a lot of anger.

Shen Huai heard the noise and took a look at him.

Tsk, that face is really ugly tight.

Shen Huai didn't have to think about it to know that the news of her assassination on the street had already reached his ears.

"Come here." Shen Huai beckoned to Qi Rin.

Qi Rin saw Shen Huai sitting there eating intact, and his face looked a little better. He hummed softly and sat down.

After Shen Huai saw Qi Rin sitting down, he put down the steamed fish in the bowl and took it out of his pocket, and actually took out a small clay figure.

Qi Rin stretched out his hand to take it, and found that the appearance of the little clay figure was somewhat similar to his.

Shen Huai explained a few words beside him, "I'm afraid that the master won't like it, so I pinched one myself, but it's ......."

But...... It's not as good as other masters.

The haze between Qi Rin's eyebrows and eyes was all blown away, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He carefully put away the clay figurine, and prepared to go back to Haosheng to collect it later.

Speaking of which, Shen Huai is really a clear stream.

Other women give men some handkerchiefs and sweat towels by themselves, only she gives some children's things every day.

And every time Qi Rin received it, he hid it like a treasure, and even locked it, so that it was easy not to be touched.
