Xie Wan feels that it is not a bad thing for a person to be under pressure, at least it shows that he has a sense of responsibility.

So she didn't explain Xie Lang too much, but just asked Wu Xing and Yinzuo to take care of his diet and daily life.

When Luo Sheng came back in the evening, Xie Wan asked him to send a letter to Huangshi Town, informing Sister-in-law Mei that she would come over in two days, and when she went to Aconitum Village, she asked her to bring someone over to have a look.

Luo Sheng said: "Is the girl going alone?" "It's because I'm worried she's in danger.

Xie Wan said: "Go with Brother Yun and Sister Wei, there are five or six people, and then let Wu Xing and Yuxue Yufang follow." ”

Luo Sheng said hesitantly: "If you want to go with the girl." ”

"No need." Xie Wan waved his hand: "It's a busy time in the shop, we have already delayed the season, if we don't take advantage of this time to earn some capital and popularity back, it will definitely affect the business in the coming year." ”

Luo Sheng had no choice but to retreat.

In addition to Xie Hua and Xie Lang, who were preparing for the exam, the other young masters and girls began to look forward to snow every day.

On the ninth day of the first month, the weather finally became cloudy, and there were showers of snow beans in the upper morning, but they stopped again in the lower morning. On the 10th day of the new year, light snow began to fall in the morning.

Xie Yun went door-to-door to inform him to leave in the afternoon, and Xie Wan made a decision and didn't want to change it easily, so he immediately asked people to pack up their things. After doing some needlework in the house, when he saw that it was getting darker, he walked to the front yard.

Yufang greeted her and said, "Girl, the person Luo is looking for has already arrived." ”

The person Luo Sheng promised to send arrived in the past two days, but it happened that he came at this time.

Xie Wan got out of the threshold, and saw two people, one tall and one short, standing under the plane tree at the door, the tall one was about fourteen or fifteen years old, the short one was eleven or twelve years old, and the older one was bowing his head and talking to the younger one.

Before the two of them noticed, Xie Wan looked at them carefully, and saw that the elder man's facial features seemed to be a little familiar, his expression was very serious, his eyes were not slanted, and the few words that occasionally floated over were also full of smiling air, not at all like Luo Sheng's dull appearance. She felt that Luo Sheng was deliberately humble, so she thought about it.

Looking at the other one, his expression was wooden, and he only knew how to nod and not say anything when facing the advice of the young man in front of him, which was called real mediocrity in qualifications.

Anyway, at least one of the two people has the potential to cultivate, Xie Wan nodded, turned around and went back to the house. said to Yufang: "Didn't there be a lot of cloth left last time, take them to see how many goods they know." Find a few more pages of discarded accounts and show them if they can read them. ”

Yufang answered.

Xie Wan went back to the room and took a nap, and she came back again: "The older one is called Luo Ju, he can recognize seven or eight out of ten, but the rest of the people he doesn't know, and he also took a note." Oh, Luo Ju is literate and can read the account book, but the one called Luo Huan can't, he is not literate, and he can only distinguish between silk cloth and cotton cloth, and there is no way to do anything else. ”

Xie Wan nodded and thought for a while, "Let that Luo Huan and Shen Tian go to Lizi Hutong with Luo Sheng, and Luo Ju will go to Wutouzhuang with us." ”

Yufang hurriedly said: "Luo Ju said that he wanted to see Luo in charge." ”

Xie Wan said: "Is there anything you can't talk about when you come back?" Let him go to the car. ”

Finally, when there was a seedling that could be cultivated, she naturally had to stay by her side and observe for a while. This is the most difficult thing to wait, let alone a group of children like them? With her countless experiences in her previous life, as long as he followed her for half a month, how could she feel the depth of Luo Ju.

At noon, six people with their entourage rode four mule carts to Wutouzhuang.

Xie Lang gave thousands of instructions, chased and sent out the door for more than ten steps, but he didn't tear and fold the willows.

Xie Wei, who was in the same car as Xie Wan, sighed: "It's better to be a sister, it hurts to have a brother." ”

Xie Wan smiled: "Isn't it better to have parents who are hurting?" ”

Xie Wei smiled and took her into his arms, and gently tied her cloak and belt.

The Wang family had already asked Tuesday's family and Pang Sheng to go to Wutouzhuang Daqian Station, and when the mule cart arrived, Tuesday's family was already at the gate of the courtyard house in Zhuangzili in Xie's house.

The snow in the sky is getting heavier and heavier, and it is almost impossible to see the face. After Xie Yun got off the ground, he threw a ball of snow into Xie Tong and Ren Jun's necks, and the two of them screamed in shock, and quickly chased after them to besiege them, and they were already in a commotion in an instant.

Tuesday smiled and welcomed the three girls into the backyard, each with a velvet curtain and a large stove, and then went down to make a meal. The maids all came in to serve and change clothes and drink tea, Xie Wan and Yuxue said, "What about Wu Xing?" Because she is the youngest, she brought the most people this time, including Luo Ju, four of them.

Yu Xue glanced out the window and said, "Wu Xing is unloading his luggage, and Luo Ju is wandering around after tying the mule, not knowing what to do." ”

Xie Wan took two sips of hot ginger tea, and said to Yuxue: "Let Wu Xing look at him a little." Don't poke out the basket. ”

"Got it."

Yuxue put the tea, put her legs on the kang again, and said, "It's still early before dinner, girl, let's rest for a while." Then he carefully looked at the charcoal fire in the incense burner, opened a line of windows, and put a piece of agarwood incense in her room in the Yifeng Courtyard into the incense burner, and closed the door and went out.

Xie Wan slept for a while, and in a hazy way, he heard someone talking outside the window, and he didn't want to pay attention to it at first, and turned over, but the voice became louder.

“…… You obviously picked two persimmons, why did you lie to me?! ”

"Really no, don't listen to Brother Tong'er's nonsense."

"He's my brother, how could he lie to me? It's clear that you're lying to me! ……”

Xie Wan opened his eyes, got up, and looked out through the open window, only to see that the snow had become smaller, and in the vegetable field with thick snow, Ren Jun wearing a black velvet cloak and Xie Qi wearing a hat stood in the open space in the courtyard, Xie Qi stared at him with red eyes, like a frog holding his stomach.

There are really these two people everywhere.

Xie Wan was speechless and ready to lie down, but Ren Jun spoke, "Can you not be so unreasonable?" You've known me for so long, when have I ever lied to you? I treat you as a sister, Sister Wei and the third sister as a sister, don't say that I really only picked one persimmon, but I really picked several, what's wrong with giving them two? ”

"Who is making trouble?!" Xie Qi stomped his feet, tears rolled down, but his voice softened, "In the past, you had anything to eat, and you only left me one, don't say that the eldest sister didn't have it, even the fourth brother didn't necessarily have it." Now you don't just think about me anymore, Brother Jun, do you hate me anymore? ”

Ren Jun was stunned, and his tone softened unconsciously, "Look at you, what are you crying for?" Didn't I say I'd treat you as a sister? How can I hate you. ”

Xie Qi raised his head pitifully, looked into his eyes and said, "Then will you always be so good to me?" ”

Xie Wan suddenly felt a little sore tooth, covered his chest and turned around to take a sip of tea.

Ren Jun didn't know what to say outside, Xie Qi cheered: "Then if you give me this, you should pay me compensation!" ”

Xie Wan looked over and saw Xie Qi untie the verdant piece of peiyu on Ren Jun's waist and put it behind him with a backhand. Ren Jun hurriedly said: "This is left to me by my grandmother, I can't send it!" I have a better jade, I'll give you that! "But Xie Qi has already run away.

Xie Wan rubbed his sore cheeks, and he didn't feel sleepy anymore.

When eating in the hall in the evening, Xie Qi looked very happy and proud, while Ren Jun looked hesitant and looked preoccupied, obviously the piece of jade had not been recovered.

Xie Yun and Xie Tong went up the mountain in the morning, but they didn't get anything else except a rabbit and two. The two summed up the experience of defeat and felt that the goal was wrong, so they planned to continue the expedition early in the morning and go to the western hill to take a look, so they did not pay attention to the abnormality between Ren Jun and Xie Qi.

Xie Wei saw a few points, and poked Xie Wan with his elbow: "Did the chess girl get any treasure?" It's so vivid. ”

Xie Wan just smiled and didn't answer.

The program after dinner is to set up a fire in the yard to roast rabbit to eat, so everyone at the dinner table is also meaningful. But there are too many people, and there is obviously less of a rabbit, so Pang Sheng and Li Gang, the steward of the grange, bought two chickens and a rabbit in the village before dinner, and let Li Gang's lady wash them and take the sauce and salt, and then smear a few drops of rice wine, and just taste it after it is set up on the fire.

Li Gang's craftsmanship is very good, and after a while, the two rabbits and one chicken have been finished, and the remaining chicken is also divided between Xie Yun and Xie Tong.

Xie Wan was afraid of accumulating food, so he only ate one chicken leg and gave up.

It can be seen that Ren Jun's mood was not very good all night, Xie Yun and Xie Tong dispersed after making trouble for a while, and he was the first to return to the room.

Yuxue made Xie Wan a bowl of tea to get greasy, and because she planned to go to Huangshi Town tomorrow morning, she wanted to hide it from everyone, so after the lights in the room were turned off, she called Wu Xing to come in and confess.

After saying a few words, I suddenly heard a scream outside, and then there was a ping-pong sound, followed by someone else: "Who is it?!" ”

Wu Xing hurriedly went out, Yuxue also went out, Xie Wan heard it as if Xie Wei was calling, muttered for a while, and then followed out.

Xie Wan's wing room is to the west, and next door is Yuxue's residence. The few rooms on the east side were occupied by Xie Wei and Xie Qi and the people around them. When Xie Wan arrived at the bottom of the corridor, Xie Wei was already standing under the corridor under the protection of the maid Qiushuang and Shuangcheng, frowning and scanning all over the courtyard. The male servants all live in the front yard, so except for Wu Xing, they are basically all female dependents.

However, judging from Xie Wei's not-so-high tone, he should have been frightened by something.

There are a lot of flowers and plants planted in the yard, and a grapevine and a melon shed have been built, although it is the middle of winter, but the dead vines are still left on it, blocking a lot of sight.

Xie Wan called "big sister" and walked over from under the porch. Suddenly, there was a movement under the melon shed, and a person fell under her feet!
