Ah Lin hurriedly returned to the Li Mansion, thinking of Zhao Xiaoqi's round face full of anger, his heart was full of anxiety. He knew that Zhao Xiaoqi was not talking about fun, if he couldn't find that Niu Ba this month, maybe Zhao Xiaoqi would really send himself to Nanzhen Fusi, and at that time, he would just call the earth and the earth to be ineffective. Then Zhao Xiaoqi said to himself clearly, this matter is all over the world, and he is staring at it.

As soon as he walked into the front yard of the Li Mansion, he saw Lao Ruan coming over, mysteriously pulling him into the green bamboo forest. Alin couldn't help but be overjoyed, it seems that this old Ruan has heard some news, and it is not in vain that he has come to win over wine and meat.

As soon as he entered the green bamboo forest, Ah Lin hurriedly asked, "Lao Ruan, is there anything new?" ”

Lao Ruan checked back and forth, left and right, and then said mysteriously: "Ah Lin, these things can't be said originally, if it reaches the ears of the second housekeeper, I will be expelled from the Li Mansion." ”

"Can't you trust me? Lao Ruan, what kind of person am I, you still don't understand it for more than a month? I'm not the type of person who likes to bite the root of my tongue everywhere. ”

Lao Ruan thought about it, this Alin is indeed not a person who chews the root of his tongue, he doesn't like to make friends, and he doesn't like to talk about things with everyone. It was only because I helped him say a few fair words in front of everyone when he first came that I was able to make friends with him, of course, this is also because I have enjoyed his food many times, otherwise I would never dare to inquire about the affairs of the backyard.

"I just sent something to the warehouse in the middle courtyard, and I heard from the person in charge of the warehouse that the second son's subordinate Deye was beaten." Lao Ruan said softly: "Do you know who this person is? ”

"Old lady?" Alin couldn't help but be a little discouraged, what is this? A subordinate was beaten in the backyard, and this person is the second son's person, and the shot must be bigger than the second son.

"No, no." Lao Ruan shook his head and said, "If you are beaten by the old lady, then what kind of news is it." ”

"Could it be someone else?" Arin couldn't help but be interested.

"Yes." Lao Ruan hurriedly said: "It's the eighth prince you wanted to inquire about some time ago." ”

"......" Alin was excited, he was really sleepy and met the pillow. He grabbed Lao Ruan's hand anxiously, and asked in a trembling voice, "Is this true?" ”

Lao Ruan looked at Alin in surprise and couldn't help but be a little puzzled. Alin realized that he had lost his temper, and hurriedly said: "I have the eldest master's godson...... Oh, no, it's ...... news, I'm happy, happy! ”

Lao Ruan nodded and said, "Also, the eldest master's family is too unlucky. ”

"Speaking of Childe, Childe beat Master De?" Alin interrupted Lao Ruan's words.

Lao Ruan nodded and said, "Yes, yes, Master De was beaten by the eighth prince, and the news was blocked in the backyard." I heard that it was a death order from the old lady. ”

Alin is just an old lady, he only cares about that cow eight. He asked, "Do you know where Childe lives?" ”

"I didn't ask about that." Lao Ruan said: "The backyard is so big, and there are so many gardens here, it is difficult for us to even enter the middle yard, let alone the backyard." ”

Alin couldn't imagine that this Li Mansion was so big, it seems that this Li Mansion is not small. The Li Mansion in Qingzhou is not small, and I heard that a lot of manpower was used in that encirclement and suppression, so it is no wonder that someone had to be sent to infiltrate this time.

Lao Ruan saw that Ah Lin bowed his head and was silent, so he greeted him and left alone.

Arin thought for a moment, and then hurried out again.

Two days later, the second housekeeper suddenly sent someone to the wooden house where the people in the front yard were staying, beckoned Ah Lin, and told him to go to the treasury of the middle courtyard to take over. In the envious eyes of everyone, Alin packed his luggage and headed for the middle courtyard. Lao Ruan secretly followed and said to Ah Lin: "Brother Ah Lin, if there is anything that can take care of my brother in the future, please say a few more kind words in front of the second housekeeper." ”

Alin nodded with a smile and hurried away.

The weather was sunny and cloudless. There was no wind, and the trees in the yard did not move. Ah Lin, together with several other warehouse managers, sweated like rain to weigh the summer harvest crops sent to the households of Lifu Zhuang. Although his hands and feet did not stop, Alin was very anxious in his heart, he had been in the middle court as a warehouse manager for several days, and although he had inquired vaguely about the origin of Niu Ba, he could also determine that he was the person he was looking for, and he had already told Zhao Xiaoqi. Zhao Xiaoqi instructed himself to find Niu Ba's residence, I heard that he lived in the east courtyard behind, and he had also explored several times in the dark and windy night, but found that the east courtyard had a mysterious power that could not be underestimated, and he almost didn't come back the last time, and then he didn't dare to go again. If you don't dare to go, you have to investigate, looking for these people, these people haven't been to the backyard, let alone the east courtyard. They can only vividly describe the tragic situation after Li De was beaten, as if they had seen it in person. These are useless for him Alin. Alas!

The noise of the farmer and the cries of the knowing-all filled his ears made Arin restless.

Finally, when the sun set, the farmers paid the summer rent and hurriedly pushed the wooden wheeled cart away. A few warehouse managers and Alin cleaned up the warehouse, and the head of the warehouse threw the copper lock and a bunch of keys to Alin, and beckoned the other warehouse managers to leave without looking back. Who called Alin a newcomer, although he was the person who was greeted by the second butler, but the other few were related to the big butler, who would do if he didn't lock the door?

Alin had no choice but to check one warehouse after another. It was already getting dark, and Alin had to speed up, there were still two rows of warehouses behind this row of houses that needed to be crossed. Although there is nothing in the two rows of warehouses today, according to the rules, it is still necessary to go over to see if the locks are intact. Alin had to be patient, he had learned to lurk, whether anyone was watching or not, everything must be done as if someone was watching, this is also the rule, it is the rule of life. Who knows if anyone in this Li Mansion is secretly staring at him.

It was completely dark, and Alin came to the last row of warehouses lightly in the dark. Suddenly, he heard a noise in the storeroom. Someone stealing? He flashed into the shadows of the trees and slowly leaned over.

Standing in the shadow of the trees outside the storeroom, listening to the sounds inside, Alin couldn't help but feel a little confused. Who is this, so bold?

There was not one person in the storeroom, but two people, a man and a woman. From the sound that came out, Arin knew what they were doing, and he was strange that from the whispering that came out, he knew who the man was. Yes, it's the second son, Li Xunzhou. Li Xunzhou's stealing is not a strange thing, it is strange that he didn't do this in his room without getting married, but he came to this warehouse, which is really a quirk, and he likes to sneak around in places he is not familiar with.

Arin didn't know if he should interrupt them or leave. After thinking about it for a moment, he decided to stay.

Li Xunzhou inside didn't know Alin's hesitation outside, and even if he knew, he didn't want to pay attention to it. A subordinate knows about his sneaky things, and for him, it doesn't matter at all. After finishing his hurry, he stood up.

"Childe!" As soon as the woman spoke, it suddenly became Qiu'er's voice.

If Tong Hang was here, he would definitely be shocked. This Qiu'er wants to have a figure or not, and if she wants to look good, I don't know what Li Xunzhou looks at in the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"Huh?" Li Xunzhou paused, still wearing his clothes. Qiu'er got up from the ground, picked up the clothes that were spread on the ground and flicked them, and whispered as she put them on: "Childe, I listened to your words and drank the herbal soup for abortion, but you can't lie to me." ”

Li Xunzhou frowned in the darkness and replied softly, "How could I lie to you?" If you help me, I will naturally remember your goodness, and when I master all the business at home, I will naturally admit you to the door. ”
