"The things that the owner has commanded have been arranged, and we will act tonight. Does the proprietor want to see it for himself? The shopkeeper Zhong's eyes flashed with excitement.

"Such a wonderful scene, I naturally want to see it, but it is inconvenient for my identity to stay outside for a long time, so it is better for me to think of a way to cross my father's clear path."

Qin Yining's fair-skinned hand with a hibiscus jade bracelet rubbed the white porcelain teacup, his pink and white nails tapped the wall of the cup, and suddenly smiled: "That's it, my father is resourceful, I don't think it's wise to hide it from him or deceive him temporarily." ”

The shopkeeper nodded in agreement and said with a smile: "According to the meaning of the old man, the owner might as well go directly to tell the truth to the Hou Ye, otherwise it will not be good to cause misunderstanding." ”

"Exactly." Qin Yining immediately carefully confirmed a series of deployments in a low voice with the shopkeeper of Zhongda, and then returned to the house.

In the afternoon, Qin Yining took Jiyun to the study in the outer courtyard.

Qitai was squatting next to the potted plant under the porch and trimming the branches and leaves of a pot of tea jasmine, when he heard footsteps, he looked up and saw Qin Yining, and hurriedly saluted: "Fourth Miss." ”

"Father?"

"Hou Ye is here, the villain is going back to Hou Ye."

Qitai put down the flower scissors, turned around and lifted the light blue oleander curtain and entered the house, and came out after a short time and respectfully invited Qin Yining in.

The study is still the same, Qin Huaiyuan wore a light gray fine cotton straight jacket at home and sat cross-legged on the Luohan bed by the window to read, and when he saw Qin Yining coming in, he smiled and said, "Sister Yi'er is here, sit down." ”

Qin Yining sat down on the other side of the square table, waved his hand and retreated, before he said, "Father, my daughter has a good play I want you to watch." ”

Qin Huaiyuan raised his eyes in surprise, put down the book, and wrote the word "Zuo Biography" on the blue cover.

"My daughter's stage is set up, the play is also found, everything is ready, only the father is left with an audience, do you want to watch it with your daughter?"

Looking at Qin Yining's little fox-like smile on his face, which was very similar to his youth, Qin Huaiyuan couldn't help but say funny: "Come on, tell me, who are you calculating." ”

In the evening in the Cixiao Garden, the old lady sat cross-legged on the Luohan bed sullenly, holding a dry cigarette with a brass and green jade mouth in her hand, but she didn't take a puff for a long time.

Sun, the second lady, and the third wife stood aside.

The third miss, the sixth miss, the seventh miss, the eighth miss and Qin Huining were all standing or sitting beside her, joking and laughing, trying to make the old lady happy.

“…… I am also ready to start making the soft shoes that I wear in my grandmother's house, and I have already drawn the patterns, and I will show you them when I go back, and if I don't like them, I will change them. Qin Huining took the old lady's hand and said with a smile.

Although the old lady is not as close to Qin Huining as before, she is also a lot closer to her in Cao Yuqing's face.

If she had been smiling on weekdays, she was still unhappy at this time, so she brushed aside Qin Huining's hand and handed the cigarette pouch to Mama Qin, who was serving on the side.

"What the hell do you mean? The good ones are busy like that, and they have to take Sister Yi out for anything, and they haven't come to greet me for many days! I think he's almost forgotten that he still has me! ”

"Where will it be. How busy Hou Ye is, others don't know, can the old lady still know? Mama Qin smiled and persuaded.

Qin Huining also said: "Yes, grandmother, don't be angry, not to mention that Mrs. was sick a few days ago, and it is also possible for Master Hou to take care of Mrs. more." ”

The old lady glared at Sun and snorted coldly.

Although the Sun family no longer had expectations for Qin Huining, they were extremely disappointed when they saw her smear herself in front of the old lady despite her love for many years.

It's just that she has always had a carbon-like temperament, where can she let people out?

"Don't care, old lady, Hou Ye is busy with government affairs, not to mention, family affairs are limited, not to mention that Sister Yi is very smart, and Hou Ye likes her like herself, and the daughter-in-law looks at Hou Ye and wants to teach Sister Yi as a boy.

Although Sun was laughing, everything he could say poked at the hearts of Lao Taijun and Qin Huining.

Their son (father) is all about court affairs, and when he has free time, he also hurts Qin Yining and leaves them behind. But the Sun family is not wrong, Qin Yining is indeed like his father, and he is more worthy of training.

The old lady snorted coldly: "If you get three points of color, you can open a dyeing workshop." ”

"It's a shame that I raised a good daughter back then. I am not as blessed as the old lady, and my children and grandchildren are around my knees. I only have one girl, Sister Yi'er, if she is not filial, who can I count on? Sun also sneered back, and looked at Qin Huining mockingly.

Qin Huining bit her lip, her lowered eyebrows and eyes covered her resentment, sure enough, Qin Yining was her own, and she was not the daughter of the Sun family. Since Sun is unkind, she can't be blamed for being unjust!

When Qin Huining hung her head and seemed to be aggrieved, she already had an idea in her mind.

Qin Yining and Qin Huaiyuan naturally didn't know about the controversy in the house, and Qin Yining didn't know that because Qin Huaiyuan valued her, it caused the jealousy of the old lady and Qin Huining.

In the middle of the night, just after the drums were beaten, a house on Yongkang Street in North Juxianfang caught fire.

Fortunately, this place is close to the Water Dragon Bureau and the Five Cities Terracotta Division, and soon the people from the Water Dragon Bureau rushed over with a water wheel and rushed in to extinguish the fire.

Who knows, just after spraying the water, the fire burned even more vigorously, as if it had been poured a basin of hot oil.

The people of the water dragon bureau looked panicked, and hurriedly continued to spray water to extinguish the fire, but the more the fire became stronger, they realized that something was wrong, and they were busy checking the water wheel, and found that the water wheel was filled with oil without knowing who was pouring it, because the oil was lighter than water, and the layer on the float that had just been pumped out to extinguish the fire was all oil! At this time, the rest of the water in the waterwheel was still floating with a shallow layer of oil.

In this way, the accidental fire became a deliberate arson.

The people of the Five Cities Terracotta Division and the Water Dragon Bureau were all in a hurry, and the fire that was fueled by oil just now also connected the entire inner courtyard at once.

The fire is getting stronger and stronger, and although it is possible to extinguish the fire, the people in the yard can't wait to be burned to death, right?

In the courtyard, tall men ran out one after another, and the screams of the women could be heard indirectly.

Qin Yining and Qin Huaiyuan wore black cloaks, hiding their bodies in the shadows of the back alley.

The shopkeeper Zhong ran over and said in a low voice: "The owner, it's done!" ”

Qin Yining said in a low voice: "Okay, pay attention to guarding the front and back alleys, so that our people don't have to keep their back hands, catch one when they come out, unload their jaws first, lest they bite their tongues and commit suicide, if they run fast, simply break their legs, and take advantage of the fact that they are busy fighting fires inside and don't know outside, and arrest these people and send them to the place we prepared in advance." ”

"Yes! Rest assured! The shopkeeper Zhong rubbed his hands and walked quickly.

Qin Huaiyuan smiled and glanced down at his daughter standing beside him, "Let's go too." ”

"Yes, father."

The figure of the father and daughter quietly dived into the depths of the alley.
