Steward Yang came back from the Xiao Mansion and went directly to the upper room.

"Old lady, everything is done, and there won't be any more trouble on my aunt's side."

After listening to his words, Old Madam Yang relaxed a little, "You go down first, and you have to tell me any news." ”

"Yes, old lady, the old slave retired first."

Old Mrs. Yang looked at Second Mrs. Yang: "You can also go back and rest, the first three months are the most important, don't come over if you have nothing to do, and raise the baby with peace of mind." ”

Second Lady Yang got up slowly: "That... Ning'er, she... She had been kneeling for a day and a night, not dripping water, and she hadn't eaten, and I was afraid that her body would not be able to hold on. ”

Old Madam Yang had a straight face: "What I say naturally counts, when I find Weiwei, when will she come out." ”

Second Lady Yang looked disappointed.

The next moment, Old Madam Yang's voice sounded again: "Just send her some water." ”

Second Mrs. Yang was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Thank you, mother." ”

......

"After the water is delivered, come out quickly."

"Yes, yes, yes."

The guards at the entrance of the ancestral hall were fierce, so frightened that they didn't dare to look up at them, and walked in quickly.

Entering the ancestral hall, Leng Bai looked at her curiously, and this look frightened her.

This is the first time she has entered the ancestral hall of Yang's mansion, and the ancestral hall of Yang's mansion is similar to the ancestral hall of all large families, and the tablets of the ancestors are enshrined on the altar.

But there is only one difference, and that is that this ancestral hall is not only deserted, but also terrifying.

On the left and right walls of the main hall of the ancestral hall hung a complete tiger skin with a head attached, and the heads of various large beasts such as bear heads and deer heads hung around them, these heads had become skeletons, and her eyes were empty, but she could still feel the fierce eyes of those beasts.

Their eyes widened and their mouths opened as if they were going to tear her apart and swallow her into their stomachs.

There seemed to be a smell of blood in the air, and the heads of these beasts made the otherwise solemn ancestral hall even more eerie and cold.

She finally understood why the third lady would rather choose to be beaten with a military stick than come to the ancestral hall, in such a place, she was scared to death if she knelt for an hour, not to mention how much shadow she should bear in her heart if she knelt for several days.

"Third Miss."

Scallop Bai didn't dare to look at it anymore, and walked quickly to Yang Ning's side.

Yang Ning was cold, thirsty, and hungry, and he was already paralyzed on the ground.

"Third Miss, come, drink some water."

The green onion white helped Yang Ning and handed the teacup to her mouth.

Touching the water, Yang Ning instinctively grabbed the teacup and poured it into his mouth.

She opened her eyes and saw the white onion, and looked to the side, there was a pot of tea in the tray, she crawled over, picked up the teapot and poured it into her mouth.

Scallop Bai felt distressed for a while, and hurriedly said, "Third Miss, drink slowly, don't choke." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Yang Ning's cough: "Cough, cough, cough..."

Green onion helped her pat her on the back and said, "Third Miss, are you okay?" ”

Yang Ning turned around and scolded: "Crow's mouth." ”

The green onion slapped his mouth gently: "Yes, it's not good to be a slave, Third Miss, you drink slowly." ”

Yang Ning put down the teapot and stretched out his hand to her: "Where's the thing?" ”

"I still can't hide it from you."

Green onion Bai took out a paper bag from each of his two sleeves, placed it on the ground, and said, "Miss, this is the pastry that the second lady asked me to bring you, you eat it first." ”

When Yang Ning saw the pastry, he swallowed his saliva unconsciously, and then picked it up and started eating.

"Miss, eat slowly, don't..." Remembering that Yang Ning said that she was a crow just now, she stopped and changed her words: "Miss, because the second lady is pregnant, the old lady is kind enough to ask me to bring you water, and I can't send you food."

"I brought these pastries secretly, for fear you're going to starve.

"Miss, I can't stay here too long, don't eat all these pastries at once, eat a little at a time, and keep the rest for a while, lest you go hungry.

"Also, don't let anyone find out, the slave will find another opportunity to see you."

As he spoke, he stood up.

Yang Ning grabbed her: "Bring me chicken legs next time." ”

......

Qi Lao Er broke in in a panic: "Big brother, I went to the street just now and saw a lot of officers and soldiers searching with portraits of the two of us, saying that they were arresting Jiangyang thieves.

"Big brother, is it true that the girl's parents reported to the official, so they wanted us?

"I quietly tore up two wanted warrants, big brother, look."

Boss Qi glanced at it and said calmly: "What are you panicking about?" We're not like that now. ”

"Yes, big brother, you reminded me that we only committed crimes by wearing human skin masks before, and they don't know us now."

Qi Lao Er sat down with peace of mind.

At this time, the next person came to report: "Boss, there are officers and soldiers searching next door, and it is estimated that our courtyard will be searched immediately." ”

Boss Qi stood up abruptly and ordered, "Quickly, hide those children." ”

"Yes."

Qi Lao Er panicked: "Big brother, what should I do if the officers and soldiers come?" ”

Boss Qi straightened his collar and said, "Don't panic, just do what we said before, that place is very secret and will not be searched."

"Calm down, don't show flaws."

"Uh-oh." Qi Lao Er learned from him, tidied up his clothes, raised his head and chest, straightened his waist and walked out.

"Knock knock."

"Open the door."

"Squeak."

The gatehouse opened the courtyard door and saw two officers and soldiers standing outside the door, and there were five or six people behind them, among which the two young men in the middle were heroic and imposing.

The porter took a cursory look at it and asked, "I don't know what happened to the officials?" ”

The officers and soldiers showed their portraits: "Have you ever seen these two people?" ”

The porter looked at the two portraits and said, "The villain has never seen these two men." ”

The officers and soldiers put away their portraits and said expressionlessly: "These two people are Jiangyang thieves, we were ordered to arrest these two people, and now we are going to go in and search, you get out of the way." ”

The porter hurriedly stepped aside: "Please." ”

So, they went into the courtyard.

Yang Gang and Xiao Lingyun stood in the courtyard and looked around, while the others scattered around to search.

"Who are you?"

Xiao Lingyun looked at the two people in the pavilion.

Boss Qi and Elder Qi walked over slowly, looked at the older Yang Gang, and arched their hands: "This... My lord, we were originally from Jiangnan, and many years ago our hometown was flooded, so we were displaced to the capital, and now we are doing some small business in the capital.

"This is my brother, and we are the only ones left in our family."

Xiao Lingyun asked again: "What kind of business?" ”

Boss Qi pointed to the cloth on the stone table in the courtyard and said, "We just sell some coarse cloth, which is just a small business to make ends meet." ”

Qi Lao Er said: "Don't worry, my lord, we are all good people, and we will not harbor the river and ocean thieves." ”

Xiao Lingyun asked a few more questions.

After a while, everyone searched and said, "Childe, there is no here." ”

"Let's go, go to the next one."

It wasn't until they walked out of the courtyard and the gatehouse closed the courtyard door that Boss Qi sat on the stone bench as if he collapsed: "Finally left, scared out of Lao Tzu's sweat." ”

Qi Lao Er teased: "I thought you weren't afraid, big brother." ”

Boss Qi jumped up and hit him: "You dare to make fun of me? ”

"Little brother doesn't dare."

"Don't make a fuss, go see those kids, don't suffocate them."
