Chapter 223: Reliable Guards (Part II)
"The landlord really sent a guard over, now I can sleep peacefully, I heard Li'er say that I was frightened when outsiders entered the yard last night, and the woman opposite doesn't matter, what if I disturb my sister?"
Hearing Xiao Ling'er say, Ziyuan walked to the window, looked into the courtyard along the curtain, a figure stood next to the tree, the lights in the backyard at night were not bright, only the paper lamps hanging on the corridor, the weak light was not enough to illuminate the person's face, but for the asters upstairs, it was just one more guard, and it would not have any impact on his life.
Hua Mian also saw the guards standing in the courtyard, and she was a little reluctant to go, because of her own reasons, the other party would work overtime, and the eldest brother would definitely have complaints in his heart, hoping that Sikong Yu could pay more overtime.
It was like this for several days, and I don't know if the guards really worked, or if the person who slipped into the backyard just to give the bracelet and hasn't moved since.
Hua Mian had no choice but to hide in the kitchen and bury herself in cooking, just let Li'er wear out her mouth and never go to the main building to participate in any banquet, but every time she would prepare an extra snack and put it on the stone table in the courtyard for the guard's eldest brother, and the other party would eat cleanly.
After finishing her busy work in the kitchen this night, she found that it was a long time later than before, and even Ying'er and a few people had already left first, and hurriedly walked out of the kitchen with a plate of snacks.
I've been busy lately, completely ignoring the change in dates, and only then did I notice that it was another full moon tonight.
The pale blue moonlight illuminates the entire backyard, even if you don't carry a lantern, it will not be affected by the night at all, and the figure of Hua Mian gradually lengthens behind her, and then turn the corridor in front of you to the small courtyard where she and Aster live.
Suddenly there is a lot of work today, because of the double Oiran matter, in addition to the Shion, now the people in the royal capital are full of interest in this Oiran chef, Yilan Building has been a prosperous scene for several days, and the guests who come here to hold a banquet basically name the dishes made by Huamian.
Because of the agreement with Sikong Yu to meet the needs of the guests as much as possible, he exchanged to Huamian, who did not need to go to the main building to show up, and soaked in the kitchen to cook every day in addition to sleeping.
As for Huamian not to participate in the banquet, Sikong Yunan did not require her to participate, and the guests could enjoy the food made by one Oiran while watching the other Oiran perform songs and dances, which was also comfortable, so few people forced to see Huamian again.
While thinking about these things, he had already walked to the gate of the courtyard.
Sure enough, a figure stood in the courtyard under the moonlight, the blue moonlight shrouded in his white robe, and he looked clean and didn't look like a person in this world.
When did there be such a guard in Yilan Tower? Hua Mian's impression is that the gang of guards in the building, led by Ah Da, is like the kind of gang members who appeared in the underworld movies in the previous world, although they are kind to the people in the building, the appearance is still a little scary.
The man standing in the courtyard and the guards looked exactly like people from a different world, where did the landlord find him? It's a pity to be a guard in Flower Street with such an appearance.
Hua Mian didn't want to disturb the scene in front of her, so she walked gently from behind with a saucer, and as soon as she stepped into the courtyard, the other party turned around.
"Sikong Xiao? How are you?! ”
