Chapter 183: Chunke is gone
"Master?" Ye Xintian saw Li Hongpeng staying where he was, not saying a word, she suspected that he didn't hear clearly, so she called him.
Li Hongpeng came back to his senses and said: "In the future, I will pay you half of the rent every month, as for other expenses, I owe it first, you give me a note, and when I have money, I will pay you in one lump sum." ”
"Master, is it necessary for you and me to be so clear?" Ye Xintian sighed and said.
"I can't treat yours as mine, I have hands and feet, but I can't take out so much money for a while, and when I earn it, I'll give it to you."
"Let's do it, let's make a step by one, and you will be my free bodyguard for half a year, how about it?" Ye Xintian thought that this would be good for both parties, and he would not feel that he owed her much.
"Okay, that's it." Li Hongpeng thinks that it is only a deed of sale for half a year, where can she help him so hard.
These children are all orphans, fatherless and motherless, he picked them up halfway, with his own ability, he can only place them in a small house, there are many people living in it, often not even enough to eat, now all this, he dare not think.
In the past, he spent her money on these children. It's great to be able to live in such a nice house now, have someone to take care of you every day, and be able to read and write.
"Don't think I'm helping them for free, they're going to help me when they grow up, they have to take this kindness to heart, so it's fair." Ye Xintian is a businessman, these children are considered to have invested in advance, and they will help her earn a lot of money in the future.
Li Hongpeng sighed, squinted at her and said, "Always wrap yourself like this, aren't you tired?" ”
is obviously a good person, but let others think that she has done everything. Once, he also thought that she was such a person, because of Cheng Yun's matter, she didn't make a lot of small moves.
But now it seems that she at least saved Cheng Yun's life, and secretly sent someone to protect Cheng Yun's safety, if it was really against Cheng Yun, these would not be necessary.
Afterwards, he personally went to Cheng Yun's place, and as soon as he arrived, he met the assassin, someone didn't want Cheng Yun to live, it was Ye Xintian who protected her, called the protection of surveillance.
However, Ye Xintian never explained this matter clearly, but showed that she was very narrow-minded, and whenever others talked about Cheng Yun, she put on a straight face and played the role of a bad guy.
These well-intentioned people all prove that Ye Xintian is not a rude and willful person, on the contrary, she has a heart that is kinder than anyone else, and a pair of eyes that are willing to find good.
The smile on the corner of Ye Xintian's mouth paused, but soon she returned to normal and said, "Master, I don't understand what you're talking about." ”
Li Hongpeng is not the one who asks to the end, since she doesn't want to say it, he won't force it, "They owe you to me, if there is anything in the future, just tell me." ”
"I know, master, you haven't been so verbose before." After Ye Xintian finished speaking, he walked towards the open-air kitchen on the side, rolling up his sleeves as he walked.
She stood in front of the stove, began to cut the ingredients, and said to Li Hongpeng: "The cook will come tomorrow, and we will make the lunch today. ”
Li Hongpeng looked at the cabbage in his arms, and then looked at her without a master's shelf, began to pick vegetables, peeking at her from time to time, smooth knife skills, neat knife work, no matter how you look at it, she is not a lady who does not touch the spring water with ten fingers.
"I don't think you look like a beginner at all, when did you learn it?" Li Hongpeng asked casually.
Ye Xintian's action of cutting vegetables stopped, and then said: "I also grew up alone, funded by well-wishers, I can be admitted to a good school, but I can't eat outside things every day, just make my own cooking, but I didn't expect that I was quite talented, what to do to look at the recipe, and make it look good." ”
After Li Hongpeng heard this, he frowned, this doesn't seem right, right? Isn't she born in the General's Mansion and has no worries about food and clothing? Why do you need to cook your own food? But she looks like she's really speaking, not like she's lying.
At the beginning, when he taught Ye Xintian to practice martial arts, he deliberately investigated her, and these were not in his investigation. Moreover, since marrying into King Jin's Mansion, she seems to have completely changed as a person, and it is not an exaggeration to describe her as reborn.
"That's why you thought of opening a bubble tea shop?" Li Hongpeng asked with a smile.
Ye Xintian nodded, poured oil into the pot, picked up the shovel and prepared to stir-fry, "Yes, after all, the technology is my own, and the recipe is also my own, so I won't be deceived anywhere." ”
"I remember you used to treat money like dung." In the past, as long as he Li Hongpeng made a price, she would not bargain, and gave it directly.
Ye Xintian sighed and said, "Alas, I didn't know that money was a good thing at the time, but now I regret it." ”
"Why do I think you're fooling me?" Li Hongpeng's feeling is very strong.
Ye Xintian waved the shovel, waved it and said, "Master, that's your illusion." ”
"Straight to the point." Li Hongpeng put away his smile, became serious, and said, "When did you start investigating as a teacher?" ”
Ye Xintian chuckled in her heart, sure enough, she did a lot of good things, but she couldn't cover up the bad things, she thought that this matter had been revealed, but she didn't expect him to remember, "Master, this can't be said to be an investigation, this is a concern." ”
"Do you think I believe it?" Li Hongpeng looks like I believe you are a ghost.
Ye Xintian felt that she was getting smaller and smaller under his eyes, and it seemed that she was not good at explaining, she didn't want to walk out of this door today, she said: "Master, I just want to know more about the people around me, in King Jin's Mansion, I may face being drugged at any time, and being assassinated when I leave the house, I have to think about my own life, otherwise I don't know who harmed me if I die one day, so it is really necessary to know everyone's past." ”
"Go on." After Li Hongpeng heard this, he only said two words.
"Master's business, skillful is unintentionally known, the master is a good person, so I want to help you."
"How did I not know you were so nosy?"
"If the master doesn't like it, I will quit the rent immediately, I don't want this house, and the child will also send your old man back to the original place."
"You dare?"
"Then the master has forgiven the apprentice?"
"You're used to making your own decisions, and you're still listening to your master?"
"Master, I know it's wrong, I will definitely discuss everything with the master in the future, and I will definitely not be good at making claims."
"Remember what you said today."
"I remember, master." Ye Xintian raised the spatula, only to realize that the dish was almost mushy, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly put it down.
Li Hongpeng looked at her with satisfaction, his apprentice thinks a lot about others, when will he think about himself? From today onwards, he, the master, has to plan well for her, so that he can live up to her doing these things for herself.
★★★★★★
In the morning, inside the Bright Moon Pavilion.
Ye Xintian was feeding the pigeons with corn kernels, and there were hurried footsteps behind her, and when she turned around, she saw Fang Qi wiping the sweat on her forehead, looking anxious.
"Manager Fang, what's wrong?" She asked, confused.
Fang Qi knelt on one knee, kowtowed, and then said, "Princess, have you seen Miss Chunke, she said that she ordered things this morning, but she didn't show up now." ”
Ye Xintian glanced at Qingling and asked, "Where is Chunke?" ”
"I don't know where to go, I only know that Chunke got up early in the morning, simply packed up and went out, I asked her what she was doing, she left in a hurry, and didn't answer." Qingling said.
"There may be something to do, Manager Fang will tell me the urgent matter, and I will deal with it." Ye Xintian handed over all these things to Chunke to do, she didn't have any personal time at all, and she, as the master, didn't ask what might have happened.
After receiving the order, Chief Manager Fang left the Mingyue Pavilion, Ye Xintian thought that Chunke would come back when he was done, and when it was noon, he still didn't see Chunke.
"Qingling, you look carefully in the palace, Chunke doesn't look like such an unexplained person, it is impossible not to see anyone for a long time." As Ye Xintian spoke, her eyelids jumped, and her intuition told her that it was not a good premonition.
"Yes." Qingling nodded and ran out of the Bright Moon Pavilion.
Ye Xintian put down the account book in her hand, and she didn't read a word for a while, thinking about where Chunke would go, she usually said it wherever she went, what made her lose her thinking, and she didn't have time to explain, so she went out of the house?
Ye Xintian realized at this time how much she didn't know Chunke, what she usually wanted, Chunke knew, and when she arrived at Chunke, she had no clue.
Ye Xintian has been spending time in irritability, a hanging heart, falling from a high place to the bottom, plus Qingling has been gone for so long and has not returned, the ominous premonition is getting stronger and stronger.
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps at the door of Mingyue Pavilion, and Ye Xintian immediately raised it, thinking that Chunke was back, but he didn't expect to see a gloating face.
Ye Xintian glanced to the other side, looking unhappy, thinking that the other party would be interested, but she didn't expect the other party to sit down opposite her, and her mouth was disgusting.
"I heard that my sister is looking for Chunke, it's really a deep love between master and servant, and I don't see it for half a day." Bai Weiwei said sarcastically.
"I'm not in the mood to talk to you right now." Ye Xintian said coldly.
"Yo, my sister has such a big temper, just because of a subordinate, show me a face?" Bai Weiwei felt quite ridiculous, treating her subordinates as friends and relatives, Ye Xintian was crazy.
Ye Xintian gritted her teeth secretly, did the news of Chunke's disappearance spread throughout the palace so quickly, she thought that the first person to come to find her was the person she was thinking about, but she didn't expect it to be Bai Weiwei.
"If my sister wants to find a scolding, she shouldn't come to the side of the angry person, otherwise if something happens, I won't be responsible." If she has to make her words clear, then she will not be polite.
"My sister is so angry, what if she frightens me? No one knows Chunke's whereabouts. Bai Weiwei pretended to be scared and said.
"Where is she, tell me quickly!" Ye Xintian was so anxious that he stood up from the stool and said.
Bai Weiwei snorted coldly, pretending to be innocent and said, "Sister, is this an attitude of begging, my sister has no obligation to tell you." ”
