The weather was getting colder and colder, Guan Chu didn't leave, and stood outside the house with Zhang Tong, Zhang Jiusheng was bathing in the house, and occasionally heard the water splashing inside, Guan Chu gently patted Zhang Tong's shoulder, signaled to go to the yard, and said to him.

Zhang Tong glanced at the house and followed Guan Chu to the other end of the courtyard.

"What's wrong?" He asked in a low voice.

Guan Chu said: "Do you know how we adults have spent these days? ”

"How's it going?"

Guan Chu glanced at the room with the door closed, and his eyes seemed to see through the indescribable bitterness in Zhang Jiusheng's heart, and he seemed to be distressed.

"When I saw the adult today, he was chasing after a dozen people, all with sticks in their hands, and the adults were carrying a painting in their arms. I thought about the people who went out early and returned late these days, and they all went to inquire about the people in the paintings. ”

"The man in the painting...... It can't be the young master of the Xiao family, right? ”

Guan Chu slowly retracted his fists: "Yes." ”

Zhang Tong's mind turned, and he lowered his voice and asked, "You don't think that the adults are angry that they are hiding from you to inquire about the young master of the Xiao family, right?" ”

"Where?" Although Guan Chu said this, he turned sideways and avoided Zhang Tong's eyes.

Zhang Tong pursed his lips: "The adult has his own intentions in doing this." ”

"No, I'm distressed, if it weren't for Yunsheng, where would he be able to suffer like this? Look at us adults, we have been dressed and fed since we were children, who would dare to throw his face, let alone be chased and beaten with sticks, and hide in the garbage heap. Guan Chu crossed his arms and leaned against the courtyard wall: "But what about Yunsheng?" When did she really care about us adults? Although we adults used to be not very serious, it was good for us to dig out our hearts, except for occasionally visiting the red bean platform and eating tea, we didn't do anything out of the ordinary. ”

Guan Chu sighed, and wanted to say something, but saw that the door opened, Zhang Jiusheng's hair was still wet, and he had a dry towel on his head, looking at Guan Chu and Zhang Tong with a smile.

"Why are you two talking so far away? Is there something whispering that I can't listen to? ”

Zhang Tong glanced at Guan Chu, hurriedly walked over to Zhang Jiusheng, and said with a smile: "No, where did the two of us old men come from, the adults have finished washing?" Would you like something to eat? ”

"No, I haven't been back to the house to eat with my father and mother for a few days, I'll go back, you guys eat." Zhang Jiusheng then turned around and entered the house, wiping his wet hair with a towel.

When Zhang Jiusheng left, Guan Chu and Zhang Tong behind him looked at him with extremely sympathetic eyes, and Zhang Jiusheng was a little overwhelmed, wanting to ask but not knowing where to start. From a certain point of view, Zhang Jiusheng could guess what Guan Chu and Zhang Tong wanted to ask him, but he couldn't say that once he opened his mouth, many things would naturally be told to them later, and they should have stayed out of the matter, and they would have been involved in it because of this, which was not a situation that Zhang Jiusheng wanted to see.

Therefore, Zhang Jiusheng still left.

Not long after Zhang Jiusheng left, Yun Sheng came again, and after she left the yamen, she went directly to Baishitang, and at that time, Zhang Jiusheng happened to be being chased and beaten by the people who didn't know the truth. Yun Sheng didn't find Zhang Jiusheng, and his intuition was that he had missed something, so he went back to the yamen, but he still didn't see Zhang Jiusheng one foot after another.

Zhang Tongzheng and Guan Chu were chattering about Yun Sheng, and suddenly felt a chill in their backs, and when they looked back, they found that Yun Sheng was standing gloomily at the corner of the corridor, squinting at these two old men who seemed to be a little unsightly.

"What do you say?"

"No, didn't say anything, why are you here? Are you here to find an adult? The adults just left. Zhang Tong pretended to glare.

Yun Sheng was stunned: "When did the adults leave?" ”

"It's only been half a cup of tea, he said to go back to Zhangfu."

Yun Sheng thought about it carefully, and he didn't joke with Zhang Tong and them, so he turned his head and quickly left the yamen, leaving Zhang Tong and Guan Chu thoughtful.

"What do you think?" Guan Chu asked.

"I don't think so." Zhang Tongdao.

"Nothing is going to work." Guan Chu crossed his arms.

"Yun Sheng is not very good, the adult seems to be acting without Yun Sheng." Zhang Tong squinted his eyes, as if he had seen through everything.

Guan Chu pondered for a while: "But the adults are also hiding from me, I think the adults are still hiding something from me." ”

"For example......" Zhang Tong hesitated for a while, turned his head to look at Guan Chu, Guan Chu also turned his head, the two looked at each other, and then saw Zhang Tong squirm his lips and said a sentence: "Young Master of the Xiao family." ”

"What do you mean?" Guan Chu didn't understand it a little.

"Don't you think it's strange? The young master of the Xiao family is nowhere to be found, the adult asked you to take your brothers all over the city to look for him for so long, according to the adult's previous temperament, he has already urged you according to three meals a day, but this time the adult is not in a hurry at all. ”

Guan Chu raised his eyebrows: "You mean ......"

"The adults have already found Xiao Hengyan, and they know that he is safe now." Zhang Tongtong said a breakthrough in the sky.

Suddenly, Guan Chu's eyes lit up: "This may be the reason why adults and Yun Sheng are not often together these days, because Yun Sheng is taking care of Xiao Hengyan, and adults are responsible for confusing people outside." ”

Zhang Tong nodded suddenly in realization: "My lord is really painstaking!" ”

"yes." Guan Chu should be peaceful, his face full of emotion.

After Yun Sheng left, she rushed back to Zhangfu almost as fast as she could, and as soon as she stepped into the gate of Zhangfu, she saw Zhang Jiusheng coming towards her, the two had not met and talked for a long time, and the atmosphere was a little restrained for a while.

"You...... You weren't in the mansion looking at Young Master Xiao, where did you go? Zhang Jiusheng stammered a little.

Yun Sheng licked his lips, a little embarrassed: "I went to look for you, went to Baishitang, and also went to Yamen, Zhang told them that you were back, so I came back." ”

"Oh." Zhang Jiusheng nodded, a little uncomfortable on his face.

These days, he watched Yun Sheng take care of Xiao Hengyan, from jealousy and irritability at the beginning, to the normal heart in the back, he seemed to have looked down, their future is still unclear, what about the love of children? What's more, Yun Sheng's thoughts, he doesn't understand, whether he is wishful thinking.

"You have been busy lately, they say." Yun Sheng took a step forward.

Zhang Jiusheng nodded, although he shook his head again: "I'm not very busy, just make a show." ”

When standing in front of Zhang Jiusheng, the depths of Yun Sheng's eyes suddenly surged, she stretched out her hand and gently touched the corner of Zhang Jiusheng's eyes, a stinging pain instantly invaded Zhang Jiusheng, he instinctively dodged back, but just this dodge, Zhang Jiusheng knew what he had exposed, and hurriedly turned around and walked towards the living room.

"It's cold outside, let's go inside." He said.

Yun Sheng didn't speak, just stopped in mid-air with one hand in a daze.

He was injured, when he didn't know, where he didn't know, who he didn't know, the guilt in Yun Sheng's heart gushed out after seeing that red mark, almost pouring out of his eyes. She held back, lowered her head and took a deep breath, forcing the tears back.

Following behind Zhang Jiusheng, Yun Sheng didn't say a word.

"My lord, who hurt you?" Still didn't hold back.

Zhang Jiusheng touched the scar on the corner of his eye, but he didn't pay attention, probably because he was accidentally smashed when he ran for his life, and it didn't hurt very much.

"It was a lot of confusion, and I don't know who hurt me, anyway...... Anyway, I'm fine, and I'm not hurt. Zhang Jiusheng stopped and turned around and smiled at Yun Sheng.

"What happened?"

Zhang Jiusheng looked at Yun Sheng, and finally reached out and touched Yun Sheng's head, rubbed the hair on her forehead, and said with a smile: "It's just a poor riot, it's okay." ”

Yun Sheng's hand hidden in his sleeve squeezed slightly, she knew that Zhang Jiusheng was lying to her, the people of Fan County lived happily, where did the poor come from? Where did the riots come from? When she went to Yamen, Guan Chu didn't mention it, and she didn't even say anything about Zhang Jiusheng's injury, which means that Guan Chu didn't know either.

Before she came back, she went to Baishitang, she asked Zhang Qiye, but Zhang Qiye was tight-lipped, no matter how much she coerced and lured, she refused to say a word, and finally asked someone to drive her out of Baishitang.

None of them wanted to tell her, hiding it from her, were they afraid that she would drag her back?

Yun Sheng was a little aggrieved, but she was helpless, she promised Zhang Jiusheng that she would take good care of herself, and she also took medicine well, but this body was really not angry, it was still like it would fall when the wind blew, she couldn't help much, she was angry with herself because of this.

"Yunsheng, you have been taking care of Xiao Hengyan alone these days, and you have worked hard." Zhang Jiusheng said softly.

"It's not hard, he's basically regained his senses, but he doesn't want to think about that night yet. Give me some more time and I'll let him say it. ”

Zhang Jiusheng smiled and didn't speak.

The two stood quietly, looking at the half-fallen sycamore trees in the yard, with different thoughts.

Occasionally, Zhang Jiusheng turned his head to look at Yun Sheng, but saw a light red mark on the back of her neck, he frowned, reached out and touched it, Yun Sheng noticed some itching on the back of his neck, moved, and turned around to see Zhang Jiusheng staring at her thoughtfully.

She scratched her hand and smiled, "It should be a mosquito bite, not an injury." ”

"Really?" Zhang Jiusheng was noncommittal.

Not long after, a maid suddenly came to Yun Sheng, saying that Xiao Hengyan had started to lock himself in the room again and didn't come out, and Yun Sheng remembered that he had been out for a long time.

Zhang Jiusheng watched Yun Sheng leave in a hurry, rubbed his fingers, and recalled that the mark on Yun Sheng's back neck just now was definitely not bitten by a mosquito, but seemed to have been pinched out by someone. She hasn't been out in the Zhangfu for the past few days, and the others in the Zhangfu will never pinch Yunsheng, only one person is possible.

"Xiao Hengyan, I don't believe how long you can pretend and hide for as long as you want." Zhang Jiusheng muttered, and his palms gradually tightened.
