Volume 2 The Wind Rises in Jiangdu Chapter 46 Warmth

"Xiao Cui, has anyone come to my room other than you today?"

In the evening, Xiaocui sat there washing Jiang Nan's changed robes, and when Jiang Nan opened the wardrobe and rummaged through the clean clothes, he turned around and asked.

"Nobody! What's wrong? What's missing? Xiao Cui didn't raise her head, and replied uncertainly.

"Oh! It's nothing, just ask. ”

Jiang Nan stared at the messy wardrobe, his eyebrows locked.

I don't have a few clothes, so the wardrobe is tidy, and Xiaocui's washed clothes will be folded and put in, and I have never been so messy.

Someone must have come into his room and rummaged through the closet. What are people looking for?

In the original world, money would be deposited in the bank, which is called a bank.

Unlike banks, banks have higher requirements for customers - only one or two taels of silver or consistent money can be deposited in the bank, and the bank only collects whole numbers, not fractions.

When the silver or copper coins are deposited in the bank, the bank will issue a deed, which is used to being called a "silver ticket". Silver tickets can be used at all bankhouses.

Jiangnan also took over the restaurant, and when he had plenty of money, he had enough money to deposit in the bank.

The silver ticket is easy to carry, so as long as you make up enough, Jiangnan will change to a silver ticket to carry with you.

Copper coins are inconvenient to carry, so Jiangnan basically doesn't put too much on his body, at most hundreds of Wen. Put a few hundred more in the closet for backup.

If someone wants to make money, they will definitely take the money away, but they are still there, is the thief disdainful of the lack of money?

But if it's not for money, then what are you looking for?

Unable to figure it out, Jiang Nan shook his head depressedly.

"Childe, is there anything else?"

Jiang Nan stood there and thought for a long time, and Xiao Cui had already washed all her clothes.

Jiang Nan waved his hand, "It's okay, go back and rest early!" ”

Xiao Cui nodded when she heard this, got up and left.

Jiang Nan pulled over the stool and sat down, took a sip of water from the cup, and continued to think.

A "buzz" sound came from outside the window.

Jiang Nanduan sat still, his left hand reached out, and with a "snap", he twisted an arrow with two fingers. The body of the arrow was clamped, and the arrow feathers were still trembling, which showed the strength of the foot.

Jiang Nan kicked his feet, his body flashed out of the window, and he landed on the roof, listening intently to the surroundings.

In the silence of the summer night, there was no sound except for the occasional cicada.

Jiang Nan stood on the roof, for a while, and found no abnormality. The figure moved, fluttered to the ground, and silently.

Back in the room and sitting down again, Jiang Nan looked at the feather arrow in his hand. Through the light, you can see a line of small words engraved on the body of the arrow - don't be nosy, be careful to set yourself on fire.

After coming to the Liang Dynasty, he was basically two points and one line, Yao Mansion and Restaurant.

And there has always been little trouble, if there is, it is because of the eldest brother. Let yourself "don't meddle in things", it seems that he is coming for the eldest brother.

Find time to remind the eldest brother that the matter is not over yet, and those thieves have no intention of stopping.

A soft knock on the door interrupted Jiang Nan's thoughts.

Pushing the door, a pretty little girl stood quietly outside the door, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "Who are you?" ”

came to say a blessing, and said in a pretty voice: "The slave maid is Mrs.'s maid - Xiuju, Mrs. saw that the son had been working hard recently, so she ordered someone to boil some ginseng soup, and asked the son to come over to taste it." ”

Jiang Nan was stunned, ma'am? Now there is only one lady in the house - the third lady, the specific name is unknown, I haven't seen it for a long time since I came to Yao Mansion, and I don't know what happened to the sudden invitation today, eighty percent of it is related to Xiao Wu.

After thinking about it for a while, but for a moment, he said, "Please lead the way!" ”

Yao Zhankui, his wife, and Yao An all live in the backyard, and although Jiangnan is deeply valued by Yao Zhankui, he is also arranged in the front yard. The backyard is an inner house, and it is inconvenient to live in outsiders.

Jiangnan is also conscious, for such a long time, he has never been in the backyard.

By the moonlight, Jiangnan looked around, the high-walled courtyard, with blue bricks and blue tiles, was much more magnificent than the previous courtyard.

The main house was originally lived by Yao Zhankui and the eldest lady, but the third lady has been living in the side house since she entered the house. There were accidents one after another, and I felt unlucky, the rooms where the eldest lady and the second lady lived were empty, and Yao Zhankui also moved to the side room to live with her.

The third lady sat in the hall, saw Jiang Nan come in, got up and said a blessing.

Jiang Nan hurriedly stepped forward and bowed his hand in return, "Hello sister-in-law!" ”

The third lady was stunned when she heard this, and laughed out loud, and said softly: "I often hear the master mention that Jiang Gongzi has lost his memory, and he didn't believe it at first, but when I saw it today, it was indeed as the master said, and the way the son spoke was really special." ”

Similar to this situation, I have experienced more than once, Jiang Nan is used to it, and he doesn't explain, and said softly: "I don't know if my sister-in-law recruits each other, what is the so-called thing?" ”

The third lady raised her hand and motioned for Jiang Nan to sit down, and she also returned to her position to sit down, "It's nothing, it's just that I've heard the master say many times that I met a young talent and lived in the house. ”

Jiang Nan hurriedly waved his hand, "How dare you!" Jiang Nan is just an ordinary person, and the eldest brother praised it falsely! ”

The third lady stared at Jiang Nan for a while, and said with a smile: "Jiang Gongzi is modest, I see Gongzi as gentle and elegant, extraordinary in his skills, and he has single-handedly repelled thieves many times, presumably his martial arts are even better!" ”

…… Jiang Nan smiled and shook his head, noncommittal.

Third lady: "I heard from the master, the son has been teaching Xiao Wu to learn martial arts recently. Xiao Wu has a stubborn temperament, I'm afraid the son is not worried, right? ”

Sure enough, for the sake of Xiao Wu, I said, I haven't seen it before, why did I call myself over for no reason, "It's true!" It's normal to be five years young, and it's normal to be naughty, but the talent for martial arts is good, and the entry into the realm is fast. ”

Jiangnan is not Wuxia Ameng, and a few polite words are very sincere.

When the third lady heard this, she laughed coquettishly, "The son has worked hard for days, and the concubine ordered someone to prepare some ginseng soup to help the son make up for his body!" After speaking, the jade waved his hand and gestured to Xiuju.

Xiuju received the order and hurriedly handed the porcelain bowl containing the ginseng soup to Jiang Nan.

Seeing this, Jiang Nan knew that he couldn't shirk it, so he took the bowl and didn't taste it carefully, and drank it all.

The third lady was stunned, covered her lips and chuckled: "Childe, you are bold, but this is not wine, you don't need to drink it so urgently!" ”

Jiang Nan hurriedly put the bowl down, smiling, and did not say anything.

After all, since I was a child, I didn't have many opportunities to contact with the opposite sex, and I didn't know how to get along with my sister-in-law, so I was a little restrained for a while.

The third lady said softly, Jiang Nan occasionally responded, and the air seemed to be filled with embarrassment.

After sitting quietly for a while, seeing that the third lady was nothing important, Jiang Nan excused himself late at night and got up to leave.

In the first contact, the third lady also found out that Jiangnan was uncomfortable, and did not force it, anyway, it was long in Japan, and signaled Xiuju to send Jiangnan.

It wasn't until he left the inner house that Jiang Nan motioned Xiuju to stay and go back to the room alone, feeling relieved in an instant, and his whole body really relaxed.

I kicked my shoes, sat cross-legged on the bed, and began to practice with my eyes closed.

Strange to say, I don't know when Jiang Nan found that even if he didn't rest in bed, he could still recuperate by sitting cross-legged and practicing internal strength. Since then, Jiangnan has also lost the habit of lying down and sleeping.

I sat cross-legged and practiced for one night, and the next day I was refreshed.

I don't know if it's because it was repaired yesterday, Yao An came early today, and he practiced very seriously.

Jiang Nan didn't say anything, but he was very satisfied with his performance.

Yesterday's words to deal with the third lady are not false, Xiao Wu is indeed smart, and there is no lack of talent for martial arts, if he can really train well, he will definitely be able to become a martial arts master one day.

At breakfast, Yao An also stayed, Jiang Nan and Xiao Cui sat around the table, Jiang Nan took a bun and handed it to Yao An, and asked softly, "Why did Xiao Wu practice so seriously today?" ”

Yao An took a big bite of the bun and said vaguely: "I must learn martial arts well!" ”

Xiao Cui took a bowl of porridge and handed it to him, "Why do you learn martial arts?" ”

The little guy practiced hard in the morning, and when he was a little hungry, he swallowed a bun by dividing it by two, "If you learn martial arts well, you don't need to be protected by others, you can protect others, and you can also go out of the house to play!" ”

When Jiang Nan and the others heard this, they laughed out loud, learning martial arts just to go out to play, and they were too unambitious.

However, after thinking about it, I was relieved. The little guy has been strictly restrained since he was a child, and he can't go out of the house, and the only time he is estimated to be the last time he ran away from home, and the whole house was disturbed.

Since then, the entourage around me has doubled, and I am afraid that there will be no more opportunities to sneak out of the toilet again.

That is, when you go to Jiangnan, you don't have to worry about safety, otherwise your entourage will follow you every step of the way.

Jiang Nan: "Don't worry, as long as you can practice seriously, after a while, I will ask your father to approve you to go out to play once, or let me take you out to play."

If you can hold out for a few years without anyone following, you can go out and play on your own, and then three or five strong men may not be your opponents. ”

When Yao An heard this, his eyes lit up, and he stared at Jiang Nan excitedly, "Really? Can I really hang out? ”

Jiang Nan rubbed his head, "The premise is that you have to practice martial arts seriously, and when I am satisfied, I will go to your father to intercede." If you're still like you were before, don't expect any good things! ”

Yao An patted his chest vigorously and said with a serious face: "I must practice diligently, but Uncle Jiang, you also have to be a talker!" ”

Jiang Nan: "I always count when I speak, and I will never break my word"

Hearing this, Yao An stretched out his little finger, "Uncle Jiang, let's pull the hook!" ”

When Xiao Cui heard this, she laughed, looked at Yao An's childish behavior, and turned her head to stare at Jiang Nan, wanting to see how he responded.

Jiang Nan didn't care, and happily stretched out his finger and hooked up with him, "A word is a certainty!" ”

Yao An: "Hang yourself on the hook, you can't change it for a hundred years!" Liars are puppies! ”

Jiangnan: "Good! Liars are puppies! ”

Xiao Cui held her chin and looked at the two with a smile, Jiang Nan was particularly kind at this time.

In the past, such a scene had never happened, and Jiang Nan also enjoyed the warmth at this time, coaxing the little guy with a smile on his face, and really treated him as a nephew.
