Chapter 16: Stealing incense and stealing jade
The voyage hurried and hurried back, and finally rushed back before the gates were closed. After entering the city, he first went to a store, and he wanted to see the layout and location of the store first.
It's getting dark, and the Tang family's first store has already closed. There was a knock on the door, and a young man poked his head out.
"I'm Ye Yuanhang, the butler of the Tang family, are you shopkeepers here?"
"Oh, it's the butler. The shopkeeper has gone home, this is all this time, do you have anything to do? "The young man hastened to open the door and let him sail in.
"I don't have to go in, I want to go to the barn to have a look, can you take me there?"
"Yes. Someone from the house has cleaned the warehouse today, and the small one has a key, and I will take you there. Wait a minute. The man turned around and went back to get the keys.
The warehouse is only a dozen meters away from the first store, and the second one is in the side alley. It's a small courtyard, suitable for living, not suitable for opening a restaurant. However, Yuanhang believes that the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys. When you enter the courtyard, there is a row of side rooms on the left and right sides. Yuanhang walked into the main room first, the room was not very large, and there were six tables at most. There are also two rooms next to it, each with room for four tables. Walking into the wing room on the right, there are only three smaller rooms. Yuanhang decided to open two of them as a kitchen, and the remaining one for the guys to eat and rest. Walking to the left wing, Yuanhang found that there was a lock on the door.
"Open this up and I'll take a look." Yuanhang pointed.
"Butler, this key is not small. This turned out to be the lady's boudoir, and I heard them say that since they moved out, the lady's room has been locked. After the man finished speaking, he added, "It seems that only the young lady has this key." ”
"Oh, that's right." Yuanhang thought for a while and said, "That's it, thank you, you go back and rest." ”
Came out of the courtyard and sailed to the Tang Mansion. Thinking that the key is in Wanyo's hand, Wanyue is angry with herself now, will she give the key to herself?
Back at the Tang Mansion, Qinghe was anxiously pacing back and forth in the house, seeing that it was dark and had not yet returned, for fear that something would happen. Suddenly, Yuanhang appeared in front of him, and hurried over to pour tea.
"Why did you come back, I'm worried about death." Qinghe handed over the tea.
"It's a long way to go, and when I came back, I went to see the courtyard. The restaurant is gone, let's open a restaurant first. "I'm tired from the voyage, I just want to wash and sleep.
"Oh, yes." Qinghe suddenly remembered something, blinked his eyes and said, "The eldest lady came here in person today and asked you to see him." ”
"I'll talk about it tomorrow, I'm tired."
"It seems to be a very important matter, the eldest lady said that you should go to see her no matter how late it is." Qinghe tilted his head and emphasized again.
What can you do with me looking for me? She hates me to death during the day, she should ignore me anymore, why are she still in a hurry to find me. Thinking that he was looking for Wanyue to get the key to the courtyard, Yuanhang decided to meet Wanyue.
Walking to the door of the backyard, he pushed the door but did not open it, and Yuanhang saw that there was a lock. Why did you call me when the door was locked? Yuanhang shook his head and walked towards his room.
No, Yuanhang stopped and thought. If it's for safety, it should be locked inside, how can you see that the lock is outside? What is the reason for this? Could it be that something happened in the backyard or that Wanyu was in trouble? Yuanhang hurried back to his yard and came to the wall, where a wooden ladder had been placed. Yuanhang climbed up the wall and climbed over, and walked lightly under the graceful window.
"Wanyu, are you there?" Yuanhang knocked lightly on the window, and looked around with the thief, for fear of being discovered by others.
"What's going on so late?" Wanyo came to the window and asked softly through the window.
"You're okay, Wanyu, I see the backyard door is locked outside." Yuanhang said puzzled.
"Why did you come in when you saw the lock?"
"I'm not worried about what will happen to you,"
"You only tease me, when did you worry about me?"
"You...... Forget it, what did you call me for? "The voyage is a bit inexplicable.
"Of course there is, but I don't want to talk about it today, let's talk about it tomorrow." Wanyue covered her mouth and snickered in the room.
Yuanhang felt like he was being played, and he shook his head and walked back, only to remember that he hadn't taken the key and turned back halfway through.
"Graceful, graceful. The key to the branch warehouse, are you here? Thinking of asking for help, I had to say good words.
"Here I am."
"You hand it to me, and tomorrow I want to clean up and live in it."
"Okay, but I'm going to find it, you can wait." Wanyo forcibly held back a laugh.
"Okay, don't worry, look for it slowly."
Ten minutes later, there was no movement. Half an hour has passed, and Wanyue is still looking.
"Wanyo, I'm going to fall asleep under the window." Yuanhang hung his head and shouted.
"Oh, I haven't found it yet. Give me another hour, you can sleep for a while......" Wanyue covered her mouth in the room and already squatted down and laughed.
Having been deceived, Yuanhang only now understands it.
"Wanyue is taking revenge on me, I'm too tired today, I'll settle accounts with you tomorrow." Viciously left a word, turned and walked away.
When I walked back to the wall, I found that there was no ladder on this side of the wall, and I couldn't go back.
"Green lotus, green lotus." Yuanhang shouted in a low voice. Fortunately, Qinghe waited for him and didn't fall asleep.
"What's the matter?" Qinghe asked from the other side of the wall.
"The door is locked, I can't go back, can you throw the ladder over?" Yuanhang said as he leaned against the wall.
"Huh? How can I be so heavy. Don't worry, I'll call someone to help. Qinghe tried it, but he couldn't hold it at all.
"Don't shout!" Yuanhang hurriedly said, "You go to sleep first, I'll find a way." "If someone knows they're in the backyard at night, they can't explain it clearly.
Yuanhang walked into the Mochizuki Pavilion and lay down in a rocking chair. Maybe he was too tired and quickly fell asleep.
After Tang Yuanwai waited for the voyage to leave, he walked to the graceful room.
"Daughter, what happened?" Tang Yuanwai knew his daughter's personality, how could he be easily laid into bed by Yuanhang?
Wanyu was sulking aggrievedly. When he saw his father coming to see him, he told him what had happened.
"Father, he takes things out of context and is cunning. is also informal, treacherous. "Wanyue is angry, and only remembers the disadvantages of the voyage.
"Haha, you're right. I have deceived my father out of context, and I can only say that I am witty and clever in my voyage; It was only then that the appearance of the Tang cheongsam appeared, which pointed out the way to make money for our Tang family. Tang Yuanwai looked at Wanyu kindly and said: "I have read countless people for my father, and the voyage is really a dragon in the water, and a handsome man among people." What do you think of the fact that the Father has promised you to be betrothed to Him in the future? ”
"Ahh Father. After hearing this, Wanyue hurriedly lowered her head. Although Yuanhang always teased himself on weekdays, he taught himself the mantra, and made rocking chairs and all kinds of new and unique clothes. Indeed, let Wanyo admire his talent. What's more, the voyage is handsome in appearance and quick in wit. I already have a place in my heart. It's just that now that her father suddenly made her words clear, Wanyue still felt as if she was holding a little rabbit in her arms, jumping up and down.
"It's up to my father to decide." Wanyue said with a red face.
Tang Yuanwai didn't know the graceful temper, and it seemed that his daughter also agreed.
"Father, it's just that he teased his daughter several times, I'm afraid I may not have me in my heart." Wanyue raised her head and looked at Tang Yuanwai.
"It's okay, you and I will try him once." Tang Yuan has a plan. "Go and call him to come in the evening, and lock the door of the courtyard outside for the Father. If the voyage finds something strange, it means that this son is indeed smart. If you break the family law and enter the back house at night, it means that this son is concerned about you. Then you will be relieved. ”
So there was a voyage to Ning Po family law, entering the back house at night, dating a beautiful woman, and being teased miserably.
"Miss," Yingyue knocked on the door.
"Come in, is he gone?" Wanyue secretly instructed Yingyue to watch the voyage.
"Gone, back again. Lie down in the pavilion, maybe you have fallen asleep. Yingyue whispered.
"In the pavilion? Why didn't he go back? Wanyo asked in surprise.
"Miss, you forgot, the courtyard door is locked."
"Yes, how is this good, but don't suffer from the cold." Wanyue was worried about setting sailing. "Yingyue, you go and wake up the housekeeper, tell him to go to your room, and you can come to sleep with me tonight."
"I'm not going, I'm going to you." The voyage blamed Yingyue several times, and the little girl held a grudge. "I'll go back to sleep, and Miss will make up her own mind." Yingyue grimaced at Wanyue and ran away.
Wanyo walked over to the room and walked over. What should I do? Lying outside all night is going to get sick, and with an anxious face, he opens the window and looks into the pavilion.
After thinking about it several times, Wanyu still couldn't bear to catch a cold on a long voyage. Hesitantly, he opened the door and walked out. Walking into the pavilion, he saw that Yuanhang was falling asleep in a rocking chair, and she plucked up her courage and stepped forward.
"Voyage, voyage, wake up." Wanyue shouted softly beside Yuanhang.
The voyage was too tired today to hear it at all.
"Wake up." Wanyue didn't dare to shout loudly, so she stepped forward and pushed the voyage.
Yuanhang opened his eyes and saw Wanyue standing beside him.
"Wanyo, why are you here?" Yuanhang rubbed his eyes.
"If I don't come, will you sleep here all night?" Wanyue really didn't have the courage to call a voyage into the house.
"Where am I going if I'm not here? The courtyard gate was locked. "After the voyage finished speaking, he suddenly understood." You're here to let me go into the house and sleep, aren't you? ”
"I didn't ...... I'm not here to call you. With that, he turned around and walked back. Although it was a night voyage that she couldn't see clearly, Wanyue also felt that her face was burning with fire.
"Great, Wanyue, I knew you cared about me" Yuanhang quickly got up, picked up the rocking chair, and followed Wanyue into the room.
"You can only be here, you are not allowed to come inside, and tomorrow the courtyard door will open and go back quickly." Wanyo said, pointing to the outer hall.
"Okay, just do it here." Yuanhang put down the rocking chair and lay down. "Bring me a quilt."
Wanyo couldn't sleep at all in the bed in the inner room, sleeping in a room with a man for the first time. A little shy, and a little scared. After a while, I heard the sound of even breathing outside, and I knew that Yuanhang was already asleep, so I closed my eyes.
The next morning, Wanyo woke up. When I opened my eyes, I saw a voyage lying beside me.
"Ahh Wan Yu screamed, instinctively sat up, covered her body with the quilt, and stretched out her legs to kick Yuanhang down.
"Ouch." Zhengxiang, who was sleeping in Yuanhang, suddenly felt a burst of pain, and woke up that he was already on the ground.
"You...... Ye Yuanhang! Wanyue hadn't recovered from the fright, and only yesterday did he say that he went to his own bed, how could it come true. Pointing to the voyage, he shouted, "You scoundrel, why did you run to bed?" ”
"The rocking chair was so hard that my waist couldn't stand it. Seeing that half of your bed is not used, I took a side, and I didn't touch you, as for shouting like this. Yuanhang rubbed his head and stood up.
"And when did you come here?" Wanyue saw that her clothes were neat and her anger had disappeared a lot, and she lowered her head and asked.
"I just lay down, and I was kicked down by you before I could feel it." Yuanhang looked innocent. "Forget it, you give me the key to the warehouse room, and I'll leave now."
Got the key, sailed to see that there was no one outside, bent over and ran out of the backyard. Looking back at the graceful boudoir, he smiled. The bed is fragrant, and the people are more fragrant, not to mention that they hugged for half a night.
