Xiao Xinyi woke up at noon the next day, she drank too much in Huating Pavilion yesterday, and she couldn't remember how many pots she had drunk, but she remembered that she and Yun Xiangyi were crooked with empty wine jugs at their feet, this was the first time she had been drunk since Ji De's death.

How did she return to Xinyoushe yesterday, Xiao Xinyi thought about it, probably because she drank the broken pills and ran back by herself. After she woke up, she felt refreshed and did not feel uncomfortable, thinking that she had taken hangover medicine, Xiao Xinyi thought as she got up.

Qin Youyou opened the door with a basin of hot water in her hand, saw her who was about to stay, and said, "Sister, you woke up, Zhuge Gongzi said that you would wake up at noon, and sure enough, you woke up at noon." ”

Xiao Xinyi was stunned and asked, "Young Master Zhuge ? ”

"That's right, you drank like a puddle of mud yesterday, it was Zhuge Gongzi who brought you back from Yun Gongzi after he came back, you hugged his neck and refused to let go, he asked me to feed you a medicine from his body before you fell asleep." Qin Youyou said.

Xiao Xinyi was a little broken when he heard this: "I put my arms around his neck and refused to let go?" ”

"Mmmm, I can't break it, sister, did you dream of Zhong Daxia yesterday, you kept muttering that you want to find your senior brother, nonsense Zhong Daxia's hangover medicine Trane, you must be uncomfortable because you drank too much, and you asked Zhong Daxia for hangover medicine." Qin Youyou replied with a serious face.

"Hu Hu is also there? I was probably really uncomfortable yesterday and really wanted to take my brother's hangover medicine. Xiao Xinyi touched his forehead with both hands, sat on the stool on the side of the table, and continued to collapse.

"Leng Moyan is also here, we won't be able to sleep if you don't come back, I know that Hu Hu will definitely not guess wrong, but Zhuge Gongzi's hangover medicine is also very good, hehe, sister, the water is going to be cold, you wash your face, I'll help you serve rice." Qin Youyou, who turned around and went out, naturally didn't see Xiao Xinyi's hot cheeks covered under his hands.

After lunch, Xiao Xinyi walked out of the door and saw Zhuge Qinghong feeding larks under the porch, and when he saw her come out and beckoned to her, Xiao Xinyi tried not to let himself think about what Qin Youyou said about holding his neck and refusing to let go, and walked towards Zhuge Qinghong calmly, but he didn't know that her dodgy eyes and crimson cheeks had already betrayed her.

Zhuge Qinghong waited for her to come to her side and asked, "What did you find when you went to Hesheng Grain Store yesterday?" ”

Xiao Xinyi didn't expect his first sentence to ask her this question, and he was a little stunned and said: "No, go one step later, Hesheng Grain Shop has no grain in stock now, so I can only find another way." ”

Zhuge Qinghong heard this: "Since their store does not have grain in stock, then they must still have to collect grain, I have sent people to ambush around several grain stores and Changping grain shops that have long-term cooperation with Hesheng grain shops, we can start from here, Chu Yang set up a banquet in Manzhen Building tonight, and invited me and Huashan." ”

"Are Hua Gongzi and Chu Yang very familiar?" Xiao Xinyi asked.

"It's not easy for them to say, there are some connections between the Chu family and the Hua family, and the grievances and grievances are not something that others can tell." Zhuge Qinghong replied.

"What about friendship with you?" Xiao Xinyi asked again.

"He is very helpful to me, although he does not help much, but he is always thinking about helping me." Zhuge Qinghong sighed when he said this. If the Chu family is really related to what happened ten years ago, then where should this friendship between him and Chu Yang go. Zhuge Qinghong was afraid that the gang of thieves in the Changping grain store would be related to the incident ten years ago and would involve the Chu family, and he was also afraid that the clues that had been tracked for two years would be cut off since then, and he didn't know when and what month he would find clues related to ten years ago.

Xiao Xinyi saw Zhuge Qinghong's expression and knew that he must be embarrassed by this matter, so he stopped asking questions, and watched Bailing crying tactfully in the golden wire cage with Zhuge Qinghong.

Although this lark lost its freedom, it was given a lifetime of carefree treatment. Compared with most human beings, they are much stronger, and some large families sell slaves, for a few taels of silver, they will be trapped in a square inch of land all their lives, and they will be cattle and horses all day long. But even so, those people are still strong and alive, and there are those who accept their fate and those who do not. Those who accept their fate only want to accumulate virtue in this life in exchange for the stability of the world, and those who do not accept their fate do their best to become a superior person one day, and some people seem to be free to roam between the world and the world, but they have to fight with the shackles imposed on them by fate throughout their lives. Compared with this lark, who is often pitied by the literati and elegant people and is not free, some people are not more pitiful.

When Hua Rujiang came back from outside, he saw Zhuge Qinghong and Xiao Xinyi standing side by side under the corridor, the man Yushu was in the wind and the woman was peerless.

Hua Rujiang saw Xiao Xinyi, whose face was crimson, and a different emotion flashed on his face, Zhuge Qinghong saw Hua Rujiang who was hesitating at the door of Youxin House and called him, Hua Rujiang walked quickly to them and said with a smile: "The weather is really good today." ”

Zhuge Qinghong ignored his ill-intentioned eyes and asked, "How are things going?" ”

"Everything went well, as you expected, Hesheng Grain Shop did not buy grain from Changping Grain Shop, but from Pingyang's grain line." Hua Rujiang put away the look of hanging children and replied solemnly.

"Well, you have to remember how much food they are in." Zhuge Qinghong said.

"Don't worry, our people are watching." Hua Rujiang replied.

Xiao Xinyi asked, "What to do next?" ”

"I set up a shop in Liyang to make a grain shop, so I bought grain from Hesheng Grain Shop, how much I entered, and saw what the people behind the Hesheng Grain Store would do." Zhuge Qinghong replied.

"This method will not arouse suspicion on the other side and make us wary." Xiao Xinyi asked again.

"Miss Jiang doesn't know, now there are many natural disasters in various places, and this year is even more out of control, the treasury has been empty for many days and has not opened a warehouse to release grain, and now that the new grain has not been delivered, many people have begun to store grain on a large scale, wanting to take the opportunity to raise the price of grain, so now no matter where we collect or how much we collect, no one will doubt us, only some people will despise us for opportunistic and profit-seeking." When Xiao Xinyi heard Hua Rujiang say this, he suddenly thought of Yun Xiangyi, he also set all the grain and rice in Hesheng Grain Shop yesterday, could it be ......

"Huashan, it can't be generalized, there are many righteous people who are afraid that grain and rice will fall into the hands of scheming people, so they save more grain and rice for emergencies." Zhuge Qinghong heard this.

"Is there really such a compassionate fool who puts money and doesn't make money, then this son will open his eyes." Hua Rujiang shook his fan and said, obviously disagreeing with what Zhuge Qinghong said.

Zhuge Qinghong saw that Xiao Xinyi's brows were furrowed, and he didn't continue the topic and asked Hua Rujiang: "Have you seen Chu Yang?" ”

Hua Rujiang replied: "Not yet, I don't know what he's busy with, it's just that someone sent a message to let us go to Manzhen Building tonight to get together." ”

"Okay, let's go with Miss Jiang tonight." Zhuge Qinghong looked at Xiao Xinyi.

Xiao Xinyi was stunned: "I won't go." “

"Go ahead, you'll have to deal with it in the future." Zhuge Qinghong replied softly.

"Miss Jiang, let's go, let's go, how can I say that this is also Ah Yin's friend, you should go and meet it." Hua Rujiang said with an ambiguous smile.

As soon as Zhuge Qinghong raised his hand, Hua Rujiang rushed back to his room like a rabbit.

The night lights of Yongcheng are bright, and the moonlight is blurry. It's even more lively than during the day. Zhuge Qinghong prepared a set of light blue clothes and a hat of the same color for Xiao Xinyi, Xiao Xinyi got his consent and took Hu Guyue, Leng Moyan and Qin Youyou to go together, Hu Guyue looked at the two figures of the same color in front of him and scratched his head without speaking.

Because several people have followed Yun Xiangyi once, they are no longer amazed by the luxurious decoration in Manzhen Building, but they didn't expect that the room that Chu Yang booked this time was the same room as Yun Xiangyi, probably this elegant room is the most popular room in Manzhen Building.

When a few people arrived, Chu Yang was sitting in the private room drinking tea, and when he saw Zhuge Qinghong, he immediately put down the teacup in his hand and shouted, "Brother Zhuge ." ”

Xiao Xinyi heard them say that Chu Yang was the fourth-ranked master among the younger generation of the rivers and lakes, and he thought that he would be the same age as Zhuge Qinghonghua Rujiang, but he didn't expect that this Chu Yang was just a year of dancing spoons, his face was full of childishness, his lips were red and his teeth were white, and his facial features were beautiful.

Zhuge Qinghong smiled and said, "Xue'er, long time no see." ”

Xiao Xinyi was stunned when he heard this, whether this Chu Yang is a man or a woman, judging by his clothes, he should be a boy, but this name...

"Xue'er, I only saw your brother Zhuge but didn't see your brother Hua." Hua Rujiang stepped forward and looked displeased with Xue'er.

"Huashan, if you don't call me Xue'er, I won't pretend I can't see you." Chu Yang glared at Hua Rujiang Dao.

"Why can't Zhuge Yin call me?" Hua Rujiang glared back at Chu Yang and said.

"Only my parents, my sister and Brother Zhuge can call it, and no one else can call it." Chu Yang's eyes widened wider than Hua Rujiang's.

"What, I heard you mean that you are planning to recruit Zhuge Yin to be your brother-in-law?" Hua Rujiang shook the gold-inlaid folding fan in his hand, and Qin Youyou was standing beside him, and in this slightly chilly night, he was blown by the cold wind of the fan, and he suddenly felt cold all over his body, and hurriedly hid to the side.

"What does this have to do with my sister, I like Brother Zhuge to call me Xue'er and ask you to take care of it." Chu Yang snorted coldly.

"If you call me Brother Hua, I won't call you Xue'er in the future, what do you think." Hua Rujiang looked like a scoundrel.

"Is that true?" Chu Yang obviously didn't believe it.

"A gentleman's words are quick and the horse is whipped." Hua Rujiang snapped the fan and held it in his hand, swearing a promise.

"Brother Hua." Chu Yang reluctantly called.

"That's good." Hua Rujiang touched the top of Chu Yang's head, who was half a head shorter than him, with satisfaction.

Later, Xiao Xinyi learned that it was rare for Chu Yang to have snowy skin like a full-moon baby when he was born. His mother, Mrs. Chu, had three sons and one daughter before, and she wanted to add another daughter, but she didn't want to have another son after giving birth, but seeing this little son's pink/tender appearance, Mrs. Chu was not disappointed but liked it more.

The day Chu Yang was born coincided with the first snow of winter, and the couple who begged for a daughter gave their youngest son a nickname called Xue'er, Chu Yang gradually grew up, except for his parents and sister, no one was allowed to call him by his nickname, not even his three elder brothers. Later, because his eldest sister Chu Zhaohua and Zhuge Qinghong met, Chu Zhaohua later asked Zhuge Qinghong to also call Chu Yang Xue'er, and Chu Yang was very happy. It can be seen that Chu Yang treats Zhuge Qinghong with sincerity.
