Hua Jin frowned slightly, and was about to listen to the answer of the person being questioned, but the little maid guarding the door suddenly ran in, and shouted: "Mother Hang, you have brought the red paper and scissors you wanted." Seeing Hua Chen's Hua Jin brothers and sisters, she hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "The fourth young master and the fifth girl are here." ”

Mother Hang in the house opened the curtain and greeted her, her expression was slightly stiff, "It's the fourth young master and the fifth girl, the old slave didn't hear the movement, he didn't come out to greet him, and asked the two masters to forgive their sins." These words are somewhat meaningful and intriguing.

Hua Jin stepped forward quietly and smiled slightly, "Grandmother is here?" My brother got out of school early today, so we came early to say goodbye. ”

Mother Hang's expression had already returned to its original softness, "The old slave is trying to cut a few window flowers to relieve Mrs. Tai's boredom, since the fourth young master and the fifth girl are here, Mrs. Tai will naturally not feel bored anymore." After saying that, he opened the curtain with his own hands and let the two into the house.

Hua Jin followed his brother into the warm pavilion and saw Mrs. Tai sitting on the big kang by the window, holding a cup of tea in her hand.

The lid of the teacup had been lifted, but no steaming heat had come out, and it had obviously been left for a long time. And Mrs. Tai was sipping tea lightly with her eyes down, so that people could not see any emotion, or more precisely, she was covering up.

Hua Jin's mind remembered the sentence just now: Has the person been saved?

Who saved it?

There was no one else in the house, so it can be seen that Mrs. Tai used Hang's mother to contact the people outside.

If Hang's mother didn't show anything, it would be difficult for her to find out the news.

Thinking about it in his heart, his movements did not slow down, and he and his brother saluted Mrs. Tai together.

"Grandmother is feeling better today?" When she got up, she looked up at Madame Tai again, trying to see some clues in the emotions she was trying to hide.

Mrs. Tai put down the teacup and said with a sigh: "When you are older, it is not as good as a year, you see that your grandmother's eyes are gone, it can be said that she is old and yellow." ”

The two old men, Mrs. Tai and Mother Hang, are also 100 years old together, and they have already been tempered and hidden. It's hard to find a flaw in them.

Hua Jin and Hua Chen quietly praised a few words of Yunyun such as Ten Thousand Years of Evergreen, and waited until the third room of the long room to ask for peace, and this kind of words were endless, although it was lively but polite.

This made the two brothers and sisters really miss the warmth of the Yan family......

…………

On the way from Dezhou to Leling, there are two small mountain passes, which are also the places where Zhao Xin's leg was broken.

At this time, on the edge of the dark mountain pass, two men in black were holding windproof lamps and looking at a corpse lying low.

A cold wind blew, rolling up the dust on the ground and making a rustling sound, and the man carrying the lamp couldn't help but shiver, and the lantern in his hand swayed and swayed the shadows of the two.

One of the men glanced at the corpse at his feet, stretched out his leg and kicked again, "This is all unrecognizable, and the letters on the body can prove that it is the person we are looking for?" ”

The man with the lantern said, "We will follow all the way, and there will be no mistake." The letter on his body was given to him by the descendants of the Luo family. The scene of the death and the corpse had been investigated, and it was clear that it was a robbery, and that some robbers had been following him as a smuggler for a long time. ”

"How can murder and robbery hurt your face?"

"I dragged it in the ground for a long time on a horse, and then I fainted and couldn't care about my face, so I must have asked him where the money was hidden."

The man glanced at the bloody face of the corpse on the ground again, and spat, "Scrooge!" ”

"Sooner or later, if we are caught, it will be death, and it is also a big crime to raid the house and destroy the door!"

"Since you have committed a crime, you have to be arrested and sent back to the general to deal with the general!"

Another man looked at the sky, "It just so happened that the moon was dark and the wind was high to transport the corpse back." ”

After saying that, the two carried the corpse and put it into the body bag......

…………

The late winter sun is also a little dazzling, obliquely shining on the moire window lattice of the east wing of Honghun Courtyard.

After lunch, Hua Jin sat on the big kang by the window and read the small talking book, and the sunlight sprinkled through the window reflected dappled light and shadow.

There was no sound in the courtyard outside, and since Luo's death, the Hongxun courtyard has been so quiet.

A figure ran over, and before Hua Jin could see who it was, he heard the creak of the door being pushed open and the sound of Zhi Tao's happy voice, "The fifth girl didn't sleep, the second aunt and grandmother sent someone to deliver a letter from Changyi." ”

"No, the fifth girl is reading." Yanran opened the curtain and walked in.

She blushed and shook the letterhead in her hand with a smile, "Fifth girl, it's a letter from the second aunt and grandmother from Changyi." ”

Bai Tao, who was waiting in the house, welcomed Zhi Tao in, "You were so loud outside just now, the fifth girl had already heard it." ”

Zhi Tao smiled heartlessly, and put the belief on it with both hands.

Hua Jin smiled and reached out to take it, opened the envelope and pulled out the stationery.

My sister's handwriting was as beautiful as in my memory, and a letter was written on three sheets of rice paper.

"Is the second aunt and grandmother good in Changyi? Mrs. Yan's health is better? When will Chen's mother come back when she returns to her hometown? Zhi Tao looked forward to Hua Jin's reading of the letter, and couldn't wait to ask.

Hua Jin didn't think that Zhitao asked too much as a maid, and only caring about a person would care about her family, she smiled, "My sister is very good in Changyi, she lives in her grandmother's Xuanyunju, and her eldest aunt takes good care of her, and her little uncle often makes her happy." My grandmother was also in good health under the careful care of her sister. Chen's mother is still in the countryside, but she will be back in a few days. ”

Hua Jin answered the question of the peach in one breath, and frowned slightly.

Zhi Tao was also happy to hear this, and when she saw her frowning, she asked again: "What's wrong with the fifth girl, do you also want to go back to Changyi?" ”

Hua Jin carefully folded the letter paper and put it back in the envelope, "My sister said that Cousin Yuke's marriage is gone. ”

"How so? Aren't the cousin girl and the young master of the Song family a match made in heaven? ”

Hua Jin also couldn't figure it out, "My sister said that the two families had already reached a tacit understanding, and they would exchange Geng posts after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month." But the Song family released news that Song Junming was dedicated to his career and did not consider family affairs for the time being. The eldest aunt and cousin Yuke also had an illness because of this. ”

The peach smacked his lips and sighed pity.

Before the master and servant here finished this topic, Yanran raised the curtain again, "The slave saw the fourth young master enter the courtyard. ”

"How is it possible, isn't the fourth young master studying in the academy at this time? It must be Yanran, you are dazzled. ”

As soon as Zhitao's words fell, the door outside was pushed open again, and his brother's slightly anxious voice came, "Where's my sister?" ”

Hua Jin's heart tightened, and he got off the kang to greet him, "Brother, but what happened." ”

Hua Chen hurriedly walked in and walked full of Han, Hua Jin hurriedly poured him a hot tea himself, "Brother moistened his throat and then spoke." ”

Hua Chen took the teacup and took a big sip, as if he had dried a bowl of wine.

It didn't seem like there was something bad, Hua Jin put his mind at ease and asked, "Brother got out of school so early today?" ”

"I couldn't help but come back and tell my sister about some news, so I skipped a class."

What will be the news that my brother, who loves to read so much, will come back from class and tell her?
