Chapter 245: Jade Ying (2)
This delicate and lovely woman is named Cheng Yuying, the youngest among the apprentices of the former landlord Liu Qiao, and she has a quirky temperament, everyone likes to call her the little junior sister, but the man surnamed Fan will always call her Senior Sister Cheng with a serious face.
She picked up the silk note, raised her eyes and looked around, seeing that no one was paying attention, a flash of anger flashed in her big black eyes, and she quickly disappeared into the darkness.
Huanfeng Building is divided into two pavilions inside and outside, and the outer pavilion is equipped with a meeting hall, a living room and a school practice ground. The place where they are right now is the two-story pavilion behind the school gym, the Tibetan Soldier Pavilion.
As the name suggests, this Tibetan Arsenal is the important place of Huanfeng Tower, which houses all kinds of weapons, machinery, and military books...... It is guarded.
The man surnamed Fan is in charge of the security of this Tibetan Arsenal, it is not surprising that he will appear here, and it is not surprising that he will drive Cheng Yuying away.
If this silk cloth with ink had not appeared, even if she had been reprimanded, she would not have had the slightest temper.
The night is thick, the flowers and trees on both sides of the wind-blown stone path are rustling, and the shadows are dancing with teeth and claws, which makes people panic.
Cheng Yuying pressed her chest and listened to the accelerated heartbeat, unable to tell what it was like in her heart.
Senior Brother Yu is back......
Passing through the courtyard and then through the garden, Yuun-in Temple is right in front of you.
"The lights are still on, and the master hasn't stopped yet!"
She was overjoyed, calmed down, shook the silk cloth in her hand, and walked over quickly.
Different from the outer cabinet, the cabinet of Huanfeng Lou is mainly the place where the disciples in the building live, and in order to avoid the suspicion of men and women, it is divided into the east and west. The Juliu Garden on the east side is located on the street and alley, with a backyard, covering a large area, and is the residence of male disciples.
In comparison, the Junlan Garden on the west side is much smaller.
However, there are relatively few female disciples in Huanfeng Building, and they don't seem crowded.
And the northwest corner of Junlan Garden is the Xiyun Courtyard where Liu Yu's stepmother Xiao lived.
The original Xiyun Courtyard and Junlan Courtyard were separated by a wall, and after Liu Qiao's death, the Xiao family lived here alone, and it was too deserted, so they let people break through the wall.
Today's Junlan Garden is not a few points worse than Junlan Courtyard.
In the main room, Xiao was about to turn off the lights and rest, when he suddenly heard someone shouting "Shi Niang".
She leaned sideways, stunned for a moment, "Who's outside." ”
"Master, it's me, Yuying...... Master, have you slept? ”
Hearing that it was Yuying, Xiao pursed his lips and chuckled, put on his clothes again and walked out, "Come in, I haven't slept yet." ”
Cheng Yuying pushed the door in.
"It's so late, why are you here?" Shaw asked.
Cheng Yuying couldn't hide her excitement, "Master, he's back!" ”
Xiao Shi didn't react for a while, and said in a daze: "Who did you say came back?" ”
"Senior Brother Yu!"
Xiao was stunned again.
"Look, Master!" Afraid that she wouldn't believe it, Cheng Yuying hurriedly pinched the silk cloth in her hand and handed it over.
Xiao Shi did not doubt it, and when he came to read it, his eyes sank in an instant.
Along the way, the white silk cloth was crumpled. Cheng Yuying was too excited in her heart, and she was unspeakably nervous, and the sweat in her palms confused the ink on it a lot, but she could still make out the handwriting on it.
"This ...... It's not Ayu's handwriting......"
Xiao is not an ordinary woman, in recent years, she has supported her young son to inherit the position of the owner of Huanfeng Building, and her knowledge is very insightful. At first glance, when she saw the content on the silk cloth, she was indeed happy and excited in her heart, but after two more glances, she could see the problem.
"Really? I'll take a look at ......" Cheng Yuying naturally wouldn't doubt her words, just outside the Hidden Soldiers Pavilion, the light was dim, and she didn't see it very clearly. "Like...... It's really not Senior Brother Yu's words......"
She was a little dumbfounded, a little annoyed, and there was a deep sense of loss in the expectation that followed. The big black and bright eyes also dimmed.
It was very unbearable to see Xiao.
"Where did you get this paper?"
Cheng Yuying told her what had just happened in detail.
It turned out that in a few days, it would be Xiao's birthday. She went out today to choose a birthday gift for the Xiao family, and after a long time of strolling outside, she happened to hear that others were going to surround Huanfeng Tower in the Chuanguan Mansion.
When she heard such gossip, she was angry and had an argument with the man, delaying her return. It was this delay that allowed her to see the original lanterns floating in the night sky.
Tonight's wind is just right, the lanterns are sent into the city by the night wind, and one by one they float towards the Huanfeng Tower. She hadn't thought about it before, but there were a lot of sky lanterns that had been released, which aroused her suspicions.
But before she could get close to the Tibetan Tower, she was stopped by Fan Wenqiu.
"If these are not written by Senior Brother Yu, then who put those sky lanterns?" She was very puzzled, her face was full of confusion, "Even if it's not Senior Brother Yu, it must be someone related to Senior Brother Yu." Why did Fan Wenqiu sneakily send someone to destroy the sky lantern? ”
Xiao's face sank slightly, "Yuying, even if you don't like him anymore, he is also your senior brother." The words behind the scenes are short, not the actions of a gentleman. ”
Cheng Yuying suddenly pursed her mouth.
Xiao Shi sighed and said, "Huanfeng Lou is now on the cusp of the storm, Wen Qiu has always acted cautiously, presumably he already has doubts in his heart. When I ask your uncle tomorrow, I will know the truth and falsehood. ”
"Master!" Cheng Yuying was anxious, "I admit that I shouldn't have said that about Senior Brother Fan, but he is in the Hidden Soldiers Pavilion now, why didn't Senior Lady invite him to ask?" Besides, there are so many sky lanterns, maybe there is some major news written on them, maybe ...... Maybe Senior Brother Yu is inconvenient to meet us now, so he came up with this strategy. By tomorrow, the sky lanterns will be destroyed by Senior Brother Fan, how can he be convincing if he says that there is no basis? ”
Speaking of which, she couldn't trust this senior brother in her heart. usually likes to keep a straight face, serious and deep, and the other brothers and sisters are scared of him, even when she sees him, she will avoid three points.
Yesterday she also heard that he had ordered the punishment of people, and she went to the dining hall to eat and heard people complaining. But before she could hear a few words, the man was called away, so that she didn't even know what was happening.
But no matter what happened, he Fan Wenqiu just relied on his uncle's attention to arbitrarily criticize the other disciples in the building.
She had already seen him unpleasantly.
Xiao Shi was silent for a moment, "You have a point. As he spoke, his eyes fell on the note again, "There are only a few words on it, only saying that Ayu is back, and nothing else, but it is easy for people to misunderstand." ”
"That said...... Master, you should decide quickly, right now they are shooting sky lanterns, when I came, I heard that Senior Brother Fan asked people to destroy those sky lanterns, and they didn't have to hurry when it was too late. ”
"You......" Xiao shook his head, crying and laughing. Ah Yu has been away from home for five years, and it is time to come back, when he ...... "I don't know what I thought, Xiao's face darkened, "Forget it, don't mention it." No wonder you are in such a hurry, if the news is true, it is time for him to come back and make a decision on the marriage between the two of you. ”
"Master!" Cheng Yuying might as well mention this stubble suddenly, and her fair skin instantly turned red with shame.
