In ancient times, women inherited the habit of marrying their husbands, not marrying their fathers, and obeying their sons, and even the ladies who had never married would be limited by this idea.

Xu Yanxin may have felt deeply when she saw her so unrestrained at this time, so she remembered what she looked like when she was a girl.

Seriously, Shangguan Juan really doesn't like the ancients, but he won't really say it, lest Xu Yanxin think that she is a monster, but he will also mention a thing or two from it, such as now.

"Mother might as well try to be more herself, not always keep herself aside, but go out more to increase her knowledge, and her mood will be much brighter."

Her voice was clear and pleasant, and at the same time, she also said that Xu Yanxin's heart was in her heart, and she could feel the tip of the iceberg in her heart beginning to loosen, but that's all, she still had some scruples in her heart.

Shangguan Juan saw the scruples in her heart and didn't continue this topic, after all, as the saying goes, you can't become a big fat man by eating in one bite, and everything has to be cyclical and gradual.

Rushing for quick success is counterproductive.

As Shangguan Juan deliberately diverted this topic, the two got along more and more harmoniously, and even the two played until midnight before returning to the inn.

When they came back, they saw Shangguan Rong's figure swaying under the candlelight, and before the two of them could come forward to ask anything, Shangguan Rong's slightly cool voice sounded in the inn: "Where have you been?" ”

Shangguan Juan found that the expression on his face was very serious, as if she and Xu Yanxin had done something wrong, coupled with the cold questioning in his voice, Shangguan Juan was a little puzzled why he was like this.

But she replied honestly: "My mother and I went to the market." ”

As soon as the words fell, Shangguan Rong coldly reprimanded Xu Yanxin beside her: "Wanwan is not sensible, you are also not sensible, it is not the capital that is unfamiliar with the people here, how can you let her come nonsense." ”

"Father, I dragged my mother to play with me, if you want to punish me, it's none of my mother's business."

Shangguan Juan couldn't watch Xu Yanxin being scolded by his own father, so he simply helped him talk together after he finished speaking, thinking that maybe he could divert Shangguan Rong's anger a little.

"The father hasn't said anything about you, how old are you, how can you still do things like a child without brains, if you knew that you were like this father, he wouldn't have taken you out this time."

Shangguan Rong listened to her help Xu Yanxin speak, and his anger increased instead of decreasing, and finally the housekeeper came out to play a round: "Master, it's midnight now, Miss and Mrs. are in the dust, let's let them go back to rest first." ”

"Well, you go back and rest first."

Listening to the housekeeper's words, Shangguan Rong said helplessly.

Shangguan Juan and Xu Yanxin glanced at each other and knew that this was not the time to add fuel to the fire, so they each went back to the room that the housekeeper had arranged for them before.

Shangguan Juan's room was next door to Xu Yanxin, and when she pushed the door open, she found Mu Chenyu looking at her, and then she realized that she had asked him to get things during the day, and she didn't let him follow.

So this time, Mu Chenyu thought about it carefully and was not surprised, but poured herself a cup of tea for herself, thinking about lowering her anger first.

"Isn't it fun for the young lady to go out and have fun?" Mu Chenyu was originally angry that she went out without herself, but seeing her angry appearance now, the anger in her heart suddenly dissipated a lot.

Then he asked her out loud about the reason for her bad mood, which was okay not to mention, as soon as she mentioned it, Shangguan Juan was a little angry and told her about the causes and consequences of coming back.

The more he said that he was wronged, the more he was wronged, and he didn't blame Shangguan Juan for being like this, whoever came back when he was happily doing something would not be in a good mood.

Not to mention that Shangguan Rong not only blamed her, but also blamed Xu Yanxin, which made her even more aggrieved and ashamed.

Knowing what happened, Mu Chenyu did not stand on her side, but spoke for Shangguan Rong: "Miss, it is understandable that the master is so angry, I heard that there have been serial murders in Weixian County one after another these days, and the murderer, who has stopped for a week, has shot again today." ”

Next, Mu Chenyu didn't say that she also knew, presumably because she knew the news, Shangguan Rong was worried about her and Xu Yanxin's safety, so she was so angry.

And thinking that he had contradicted Shangguan Rong with his words just now, the more he thought about Shangguan Juan, the more guilty he felt in his heart.

"No, I'm going to apologize to my father."

Shangguan Juan realized her mistake and wanted to get up and apologize to Shangguan Rong, but fortunately, Mu Chenyu stopped her.

"Miss, it's already midnight and the third watch, Master Hou must have rested, and it's not too late for us to find another opportunity to apologize tomorrow."

Shangguan Juan glanced at the sky, it was indeed not early, so he had to sit back down: "It's the only way to do it now." ”

"You go back and rest first, I'm tired today."

Mu Chenyu didn't refuse, and brought her the door when she went out.

Early the next morning, Shangguan Juan deliberately got up early to admit her mistake and apologize to Shangguan Rong, and even thought that if Shangguan Rong beat herself, she would suffer obediently, and she would suffer a little anyway.

She even made up several apologies in her mind, but when she mustered up the courage to knock on the door, she found that no one had come to open the door.

It was still the housekeeper who lived in Shangguan Rong next door who noticed the movement and opened the door and saw Shangguan Juan, so she stopped knocking on the door: "Miss, the master went out early in the morning." ”

"Do you know where my father went?"

Since no one was in Shangguan Juan, he no longer knocked on the door, but asked the housekeeper about Shangguan Rong's whereabouts.

"The imperial court sent a request for Hou Ye to investigate the matter of the serial killer case, so Hou Ye didn't even use breakfast early in the morning and went directly to the local yamen."

Listening to his answer, Shangguan Juan asked him about the serial killer case again, but in the end, he didn't find anything useful.

According to the housekeeper's explanation, he didn't know much, and Shangguan Juan didn't ask him again, but planned to find someone himself.

Shangguan Juan wanted to go out, Mu Chenyu had to go out with her, but he couldn't help it, Shangguan Juan had to take him with him. Because he was in too much of a hurry, Shangguan Juan didn't take anyone else with him, so he only took Mu Chenyu and two people to the local yamen.

Along the way, I asked the local villagers, knowing the road conditions, and finally came to the yamen, but before I could enter the yamen, I was stopped. Stopping the two was a burly man with a mask of oniyasha on his face, which was particularly dazzling in broad daylight.

Although it was not clear what his face looked like, the outline of his facial features gave her an unusually familiar look, as if she had seen such a face somewhere.

And she's pretty sure she's seen it all the time before!

"This is an important place for the Yamen to handle cases, and idlers are not allowed to approach, if you don't leave, I'm welcome."
