Standing at the door of his shop, Ye Xinyi was a little trance-like.

As soon as Ye Xianglan turned around, she saw her, frowned, and greeted her, "Sister? ”

Holding her hand, my brows wrinkled even tighter, so cold! "Sister, are you wearing less clothes and freezing?" Not only is his hands cold, but his face is also a little pale.

Ye Xianglan raised her eyes to look at her sister, and stopped talking. Her sister had asthma when she was young, but she only had occasional attacks, because her parents were about to breathe well, in Ye Xianglan's memory, Sister A did not have any major symptoms. In recent years, she has never been sick, and in winter, even if she is thinly dressed, her hands are warm, and she has never been like this today, and her tentacles are cold.

Ye Xinyi had already laughed and held her hand, "It's okay." Raising her eyes, she saw that Ye Shi'an was also looking towards this side frequently from the shop, she was in high spirits, and she was already doing nothing, "Let's go!" ”

By the time he walked into the shop, Ye Xinyi had confidently reined in his mind and showed that everything was as usual, who knows, when he finished dinner, Ye Shi'an mentioned it as if he was inadvertent, "Tomorrow will be twenty-four, isn't it out of Beijing?" He doesn't have anyone at home who can handle it, I thought, you and Shelan will go over tomorrow to have a look, and also help sprinkle and sweep, after all, it's the New Year. ”

Ye Xinyi's apricot eyes flashed slightly, raised his eyes to look at Ye Shi'an, and after a while, he said "yes" in a dumb voice.

Ye Xianglan had never been to the west of the river trough, and this was the home of that Lord Shen, so she couldn't help but be a little curious. It's just that when she saw Ye Xinyi's face staring and worried along the way, she didn't dare to ask anything, so she had to follow quietly and obediently.

When he arrived at Shen Yue's small courtyard, Ye Xinyi raised his hand, and as soon as he touched the door, the door opened with a "squeak", Ye Xianglan said "Huh", and couldn't hold back anymore, "Didn't you say that there was no one at home?" Could it be that Lord Shen is back? "Then her father must be happy! Also, Sister Ah should be happy too, right?

Ye Xinyi frowned, so he simply pushed the door open and walked in.

In the side room, two people came out, one thin and the other fat, and it was the cow and the leather monkey who heard the movement.

"Sister-in-law?" Niu Zi was still very stunned, and how many times he mentioned his face to his life, he still opened his mouth to make this sound.

"Miss Ye?" The leather monkey is much more clever, with a cow on his shoulder, but there is still surprise on his face.

Ye Xinyi crossed them and walked around, seeing that there was no movement in the hall.

Seeing this, the leather monkey hurriedly said, "The boss has not returned to Beijing yet, if Miss Ye has something to look for him, then she has to wait." ”

"Today's twenty-fourth, it's time to sweep the house. My father was afraid that Lord Shen would have no one to handle here, so he asked our sisters to come over to help, and I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to enter the door, but fortunately, you are here. Ye Xinyi's tone was light, explaining his intentions.

The leather monkey was slightly stunned, his eyes were a little complicated, he nodded, and then slowed down two ways, "So that's the case, then I really have to thank Dr. Ye, it's really thoughtful." If my eldest family knows, he will be grateful. That one...... It's twenty-four, and I don't notice it at all when I see us old men living in a daze every day. ”

After talking dryly for a long time, he turned his head to look, but Niu Zi was lowering his head, raising his hand to wipe his eyes, and he hurriedly pushed his shoulder over again, "You bull head, didn't you hear what the two Ye girls were doing?" I don't help to find rags, brooms, etc. I'm going to carry the ladder, and I'll leave the work of climbing up and down to my brothers. ”

The leather monkey patted his chest and glared at Niu Zi again, and the brothers turned to move the ladder.

Ye Xinyi's eyes darkened, as if he didn't know.

I just really concentrated on the work of sprinkling and dusting. After doing this for a while, the monkey was thin and nimble, and volunteered to go up to the roof. Ye Xinyi explained that his sister was holding on to the ladder, handing things to the leather monkey, and turned his head to walk to the cow who was filling the large vat in the kitchen with buckets.

The cow is working hard, and in such weather, wearing single clothes, it is also sweating like rain.

Pouring another bucket of water into the tank, Niu Zi let out a sigh of relief, raised his hand to wipe his forehead, and Leng Buding listened to a voice behind him and asked, "Niu Zi, when will Lord Shen come back?" Can you go back to Beijing in time for the Chinese New Year? ”

Niu Zi almost jumped up in fright, patted his chest and looked behind him, he didn't know when the girl came, his steps were so light that he didn't notice it at all.

It's just that his face is slightly white, but he unconsciously dodges the girl's sharp and deep gaze for some reason. "That..... I don't know, the boss didn't come back with a letter, maybe ...... Maybe you can't get back, right? ”

"I heard that Lord Shen went to Hanzhong, but now, the situation outside is not good, and my father has been very worried. We finally got acquainted with Lord Shen, if you have any news, please let us know. When Ye Xinyi said this, his eyes were firmly fixed on Niu Zi for a moment.

Niu Zi opened his mouth, but after all, he didn't say anything.

Ye Xinyi's eyebrows furrowed even tighter, and he took another dose of fierce medicine. "I heard that there is a mess in Hanzhong, Niuzi, you tell the truth, Lord Shen...... Are you all right? ”

Niu Zi's copper bell eyes were red, and he looked like he was about to cry, "Little sister-in-law...... No! Miss Ye, I want to know too, but I ......"

"Miss Ye has anything, why don't you come and ask me directly, Niu Zi is an honest person, he can't stand being scared, and he won't lie." An elegant and warm voice sounded behind him, and the scholar returned, standing behind Ye Xinyi, a little helpless, with a faint exhaustion between his eyebrows.

Ye Xinyi naturally knew that he was back, and he was standing behind them, yes, looking back, he looked very calm and calm, "It's best to ask you directly." ”

After making a pot of tea, there were only a few big men in and out of the house, and there were no snacks or anything, so the scholar simply sent the cow and the monkey out to buy it, and by the way, the little girl Ye Xianglan also went out to buy candy to eat.

Then, together with Ye Xinyi, he sat down in front of the table in the hall, poured a cup of tea and handed it to the girl, and the scholar first probed the temperature of the tea bowl with the back of his hand, which should be about the right time.

Ye Xinyi didn't glance at the tea bowl, let alone drink it, his eyes just stared at the scholar's face for a moment, and asked silently.

The scholar smiled bitterly, but with two points of indescribable complexity, "If the boss knew that Miss Ye cared about him so much, she would really be crazy, right?" ”

He said this not long ago. At that time, Ye Xinyi still subconsciously wanted to refute.

But this time, Ye Xinyi didn't react at all, just raised his eyebrows, his apricot eyes were painted, and the stars flashed, "Then he needs to know." ”

The scholar paused, and there was a bitter color between his eyebrows and eyes, even if the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, but what seeped into the smile arc was full of bitterness. Ben didn't want to tell the girl. There is no benefit in knowing such a thing, but it is just a matter of adding to the suffering. What's more, I'm always thinking about it in my own heart...... Forget it......"
