Chapter 201: Hesitation
Si Yi searched carefully on Yun Genggeng's mansion, but still found nothing. Zhu Feng said vaguely before, only saying that he left a letter for Si Linche, but he didn't say where he left it.
At that time, the situation was urgent, and Si Linche didn't think about it, but since Zhu Feng said that it was for Si Linche, it would most likely stay where Si Linche was staying.
Si Yi couldn't do it for a while, and was about to hurry back to ask, but he ran into everyone who had already arrested Zhu Feng. Knowing that Yun Genggen was out of danger, Si Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
Thinking about the letter, although there is no need to rush it for a while, it is an important thing. Si Yi was used to running errands, so he resigned himself to his fate and went to Sifu.
At this time, there were already a lot of bustling pedestrians on the road, and Si Yi listened attentively, but he didn't hear how many people were discussing last night's events. It seems that the government has learned a lesson this time and blocked the scene under the instruction of Si Linche, so there was no trouble in the city.
Si Yi was Si Linche's personal attendant, and the people in Si Mansion had already recognized him, and no one stopped him, so he was directly let into Si Linche's room. Although Si Linche cleans up his things on weekdays, Si Yi is also extremely competent, and he can see clearly where the location of things moves.
After carefully searching, Si Yi was even more puzzled, Si Linche's bookcase and table were still the usual things, and there were no letters at all. I flipped through it again, but there was still nothing, which was really strange.
"Did anyone come to deliver a letter to Childe last night?" Si Yi called the maid who usually stayed near here, and wondered.
"No," the maid thought for a moment, and shook her head affirmatively, "There are few people here, and if anyone comes, I must know."
"If you think about it carefully, is there anything missing, this matter is very important, and you can't be sloppy." Si Yi still didn't give up.
The maid was extremely responsible in the house, and when she saw Si Yi asking so suspiciously, she couldn't help but say angrily: "I must have missed something."
The two were about to say another when they heard footsteps in the distance. Si Linche is quiet, and the house is also placed in a place where there are few people, and there are not many people who come here on weekdays. Si Yi looked back and saw that it was the Lin family who got up early today, and let people help him over.
Si Yi sighed secretly in his heart, the last thing he wanted was to deal with the Lin family, for fear that he would cause trouble for Si Linche if he said something that he shouldn't say. Every time, I thought carefully before I dared to answer. But at this time, the Lin clan was already approaching, and it was impossible to hide again.
Si Yi had no choice but to bow his head and salute, "Madam."
"I saw off those who came to the banquet last night," Lin frowned and said, "The maid who reported to me said that Ah Che left in a hurry, what was the matter that made him run out drunk and drunk?"
The Si family is very strict, and if Si Linche doesn't return at night, he will definitely send someone back to report his safety to the Lin family. The situation was urgent last night, and Si Linche probably forgot about it, so that the Lin family had been thinking about it, and now he found it again.
Seeing that Si Yi was silent, Lin's voice was a little angry, and he guessed: "But it's because of Yun Genggeng?"
Lin's attitude towards Yun Genggeng Si Yi can see it clearly, if he knows that Si Linche is in danger for Yun Genggeng again, I am afraid that he will go to her for trouble, and then things will become more and more out of control, wouldn't it be even more chaotic.
Since Si Linche had already sent someone to seal the news, the Lin family would naturally not know the details. Si Yi paused for a moment, and had to say vaguely: "Madam, last night it was the county official who asked Gongzi to go to the Yamen to talk about things, saying that the matter of Heihu Village had progressed, and he wanted Gongzi to go and help get ideas, but it was too late to negotiate at that time, and Gongzi was drunk and tired again, so he didn't come back."
Lin snorted and said, "Then why don't you come back and tell me."
"At that time, I was also involved in the matter of Black Tiger Village, so I was left behind." Si Yi said stiffly.
Lin nodded, apparently convinced. In fact, as long as it wasn't for Yun Genggeng, the Lin family was unwilling to take care of too many other things. Si Linche has long been able to take charge on his own over the years, but the Lin family is always not at ease, and he has to come to inquire every time.
Last time, the matter of Black Tiger Village tossed a lot of people over, Xiao Wei and Xu Chenlong's identities Lin had already inquired, after all, they all had official positions, and it was no harm to let Si Lin Che contact them more.
However, the county official always wants to trouble Si Linche, and the Lin family is naturally distressed as a mother, and secretly thinks that this person should not be a soft eater, and he picks Si Linche with a good temperament, so he wants to pinch him.
Although he thought so, Lin couldn't say it clearly, cleared his throat, and said to Si Yi: "You have been by Ah Che's side since you were a child, you have to take more care of him on weekdays, and tell him more, otherwise it will be good if he is tired."
Seeing that the Lin family didn't ask any more, Si Yi breathed a sigh of relief and responded a few times. Thinking about the letter, he asked Lin again: "Madam, I can't find a book that I love very much, but you have touched Childe's things?"
Lin shook his head and said, "I rarely go to his room, and I don't touch Ah Che's books, on weekdays, Ah Che takes care of it himself, a few days ago he was too busy, so I sent a maid to help, you look for it yourself, I really can't find it and buy a new one."
Since Lin said so, it must have not been moved. Si Yi had no choice but to nod, and hurriedly retreated before the Lin clan could pick up the next conversation.
Lin sighed and said no more. I thought about going back to my room to rest for a while, but I didn't expect to see that Si Linche, who had not returned all night, had already poured morning tea and sat down. Seeing the Lin family coming, Si Linche got up and smiled: "Mother."
Lin simply sat down next to Si Linche, drank the tea, and said, "I just met Si Yi in your room, saying that there is a book that I can't find."
"Yes," Si Linche replied, "That book is indeed good, and it is very impressive."
Lin nodded approvingly: "It's always good to read more books, by the way, how did you handle the matter last night, is the case closed?"
When Si Linche heard this, he saw that the Lin family did not mean to blame, and immediately knew that Si Yi did not tell the Lin family about Yun Geng. In this way, it is much easier to explain, so he continued with the conversation: "There were still a few fish that slipped through the net in Black Tiger Village, and last night's operation was all wiped out, and the security of Qingyuan City will be much better in the future."
Lin nodded and didn't ask any more. Seeing that Si Linche had stayed up all night and his face was a little bad, he waved his hand and asked him to go back and rest quickly.
Si Lin saw that Si Yi was waiting at his door, but his hands were empty, and he couldn't help but say a little strangely: "What about the letter?"
"I didn't find anything," Si Yi shook his head repeatedly.
Si Linche frowned and hesitated, "Didn't Zhu Feng send the letter at all?"
