Chapter 33: Breaking the Siege
"I'm afraid of bugs, but this is not an ordinary bug, it is what I saw in medical books, called Baiyin worm, it is very valuable, and it is not scary at all!"
Cao Zhijin breathed a sigh of relief, she had to thank Ah Yuan for her nonsense skills.
Wen Sheng didn't speak, and only after a while did he take a step in her direction and asked, "Senior sister, you're not lying, are you?"
Cao Zhijin's heartbeat missed a beat. Isn't this kind of thing obvious? The courtyard door was open, and she was now standing only a few dozen steps away from the courtyard door, so she must have gone out.
It was clear that Wen Sheng had suspected her, but he had no evidence.
Similarly, she said she was catching bugs and there was no evidence.
But this matter is not easy without evidence!
As long as Wensheng goes to her father to talk about it, her father will definitely take strict care of her, and then her husband can't come to see her every day from now on!
"I'm not lying, don't believe it, I'll know when I catch it and show you."
As he spoke, Cao Zhijin went to pick up the grass next to him.
Wen Sheng walked over and stopped behind her, only one step away from her.
Cao Zhijin felt that there was an invisible momentum spreading behind her, and the menacing appearance seemed to want to push her down.
Wen Sheng had never been so fierce to her, although he was still kind and pleasant when he talked to her at the moment.
"Senior sister, don't look for it, go back and rest!"
She could not listen to him at all, and even his inexplicable momentum completely hit the anger in her heart, but she didn't want to make a big deal out of it, so as not to implicate the minister.
"Okay." She stood up and clapped her hands, looking up at a small figure standing in the doorway.
The light reflected in his eyes, to be exact.
"There's a guy there." She pointed to the doorway.
Wen Sheng turned around, took a closer look, saw him holding a book in his arms, and asked him, "You are Ah Yuan's son!"
"When did Ah Yuan have a son?" Cao Zhijin walked over curiously, and when she saw that the little guy was not the little boy hiding behind the carriage that day, she said in surprise, "Why are you!" ”
"Girl! In the lower Xiao Yin. He bowed to her in a decent manner.
"Xiao Yin, why are you here?" Cao Zhijin asked with a smile.
Xiao Yin looked at Wen Sheng and replied, "I borrowed the book from Brother Wen Hai, and now I'm here to return the book."
As he spoke, he handed the book in his hand to Wen Sheng.
Wen Sheng glanced at the book, and was irritable, if it wasn't for this little guy borrowing the book, how could Wen Hai forget to close the courtyard door?
But seeing that he was so trustworthy at such a young age, he couldn't blame him for anything.
Xiao Yin glanced at Wen Sheng and secretly glanced at Cao Zhijin.
Cao Zhijin was stunned for a moment, and soon understood that he was asking her for credit.
Because she came out to return the book at this time, she was helping her out.
But she didn't expect him to be so meticulous at such a young age!
I saw him take out a wooden box from his arms and hand it to Cao Zhijin.
"What is this?" Cao Zhijin asked.
"This is what I caught outside the yard, and it should be the baiyin worm that the girl just mentioned. If the girl gets two taels of silver, can she give me half of it? He twisted his body as if he was shy, "There is no rice in the rice bowl at home." ”
"Senior sister, you were really catching the Baiyin worm just now?" Wen Sheng's anger subsided for the most part, and he became overwhelmed.
Cao Zhijin went down the steps given by Xiao Yin, pretended not to be very happy and took Xiao Yin's box and said, "Yes, you don't believe it!"
"I ...... Senior sister, I ......" Wen Sheng's momentum subsided most of the time, and he became a frightened person at the moment, for fear that his every move would be a little careless, and he would make her angry again.
"How can a junior brother question a senior sister?" Xiao Yin's seemingly unintentional words were like a boulder, pressing on Wen Sheng's heart, making him breathless.
It was almost dawn, and Wen Sheng went into the study to extinguish the candles.
Xiao Yin yawned and looked up at Cao Zhijin: "Girl, my father is not at home, I am afraid at home alone, you and my father are good friends, can I go to you to borrow it for a while?"
His little face is very cute, and a pair of clear big eyes flashed with a little light, the light is like cunning not like cunning, like wisdom but not like wisdom, more like a kind of confidence in holding people's handles, but there is no aggression in his eyes.
Cao Zhijin knew that he had something to say to her, nodded and took him back to the East Courtyard.
The little one was familiar with himself, and when he saw the bed and took off his shoes, he lay down.
He seemed to be very sleepy, lying motionless on the bed, breathing evenly.
Cao Zhijin didn't speak, didn't bother him, put the Baiyin worm into the jar, put some herbs in it, and put the lid on.
He raised his head and asked, "Did the girl have fun with Chen Gongzi today?"
Cao Zhijin asked in surprise, "How do you know?"
Xiao Yin opened his mouth, only to hear a sound very similar to the sound of a hundred sound insects coming out of his throat.
Cao Zhijin looked at the jar in her hand, and looked at him in shock, it was incredible!
"It turns out that the sound of the sound of the sound insect outside the yard was imitated by you!" Cao Zhijin looked at him carefully for a while, he was so smart, and it seemed to make sense that he could successfully pretend to be Ah Yuan's son.
"You deliberately lured me out!"
Cao Zhijin came over, helped him sit up, squatted down in front of him, looked at him and asked, "Why are you doing this?"
Xiao Yin cheered: "I support the girl and Chen Gongzi, you have to come on!"
Cao Zhijin smiled: "I won't let you down!"
"But how do you really have a soundworm? This season, the sound bugs are hard to find. ”
Xiao Yin replied, "I had dinner at Aunt Cao's house today and caught it in the grass next to her yard."
Saying that, he seemed to be a little inflated, and in a sighing tone of an adult, he talked about the two or three things of the year.
"I think back then, I was a little think tank in my group of friends, I heard that the sound worm is very valuable, and I deliberately studied it for a while, so I waited for the time to catch it, but I didn't expect to be deceived by Childe when it was time."
"Is the childe you are talking about Ah Yuan?" Cao Zhijin smiled, "What happened to you?" ”
Xiao Yin recounted the grievances and hatreds between him and Ah Yuan. Cao Zhijin didn't expect Ah Yuan to be so cunning that he even deceived children!
Well, well, this doesn't seem to be an ordinary child!
