Chapter 61: Disintegration (aka beautiful man out of the bath)
The group entered the house, and Bai Tao served Hua Jin to change her clothes, and Yanran fetched water to clean her hands.
Mother Chen saw that everything in the house was in order, and the master and servant were harmonious, so she showed a relieved smile
Hua Jin glanced at the sky outside through the moire window lattice, and then turned his head to look at Chen's mother's slightly tired face, "Mother Chen, you're on a long journey, go back early to rest." ”
Chen's mother bowed and retired, and Bai Tao took Yanran to set up dinner.
Just sat at the table, Hua Jin was not in a hurry to move the chopsticks, and instructed Bai Tao, "Add another pair of chopsticks to my brother!" ”
"The fifth girl has to wait for the fourth young master to eat, so the slave maid will heat the dishes."
Hua Jin shook his head slightly, "Brother will be here soon." "The fake tenant had been sent to the door by himself, and he must have already figured out what to say, so there was no need to waste time interrogating him.
Hua Jin picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea without hesitation, and his slender fingers were lined with azure Ruyao tea cups like congealed cream, as if they were about to drip water.
As soon as I put down the teacup, I heard my brother's voice coming in from outside, "My sister is in the inner room?" Hearing the affirmative answer of the little maid guarding the door, he couldn't wait to say: "It's different, I'll go in by myself." ”
Seeing his brother walking in in a hurry, his face was uneasy, but Hua Jin just motioned for Yanran to pour another cup of tea, "Brother first drink a cup of warm tea to moisten his throat, and say something slowly." ”
Hua Chen couldn't help but say that he took the tea and drank it all, and then put the tea cup on the kang table, "Sister, the fake tenant has been recruited." ”
Hua Jin's fingers took away from her favorite set of Ruyao teacups, and showed a light smile, "Since it's a move, why is my brother unhappy?" ”
"The fake tenant said that all the things on the road were instructed by Zhuangtou Baishan......"
Hua Jin looked at Hua Chen's somewhat unwilling expression, smiled slightly and said softly: "That's not very good, we have a chance to take back the management of Zhuangzi, and the problem of rent reduction for those tenants can be easily solved." ”
Hua Chen didn't pick it, his eyes lit up, and he looked at Hua Jin with some sudden realization......
It turned out that my sister never thought about pulling Roche off the horse once.
Disintegrated all the forces around Luo, and Luo's existence was not enough to threaten them.
Hua Chen showed a big smile, swept away the depression just now, and sat down at the table of the Eight Immortals who had set up dinner, and just wanted to say that he wanted to stay here for dinner, he saw that the dishes and chopsticks had already been set up in front of him.
He picked up the dishes and chopsticks, smiled and showed a mouthful of small white teeth, "Sister, brother is hungry......" but picked up a piece of his sister's favorite rouge goose breast and sent it into Huajin's bowl.
Hua Jin also smiled, "After a while, my brother will take my sister's pair of cards and go back to Chen Han, and let him go back to Zhuangzi early tomorrow morning, and wait until his father Chen Qinghe has fully taken over Zhuangzi and then come back to restore his life." ”
Hua Chen couldn't stop nodding, "That's very good." ”

Yong'an Lane is located on the east side of Dezhou, not far from the city gate, and it is the only way to Lutong Academy.
This is a very ordinary alley, and the seven or eight courtyards all over the alley are also small courtyards with two entrances, and there is nothing special about it.
It wasn't quite dark yet, and the cold north wind blew on the half-used red lanterns of a house, blowing the lights flickering.
At this moment, a black steed stopped in front of the house.
The young man on the horse didn't even bother to step on the horse stone, so he jumped off the horse with a neat posture and elegant movements.
As soon as it fell to the ground, the ordinary door was pushed open from the inside, and two people dressed as little servants came forward respectfully, one welcomed the young man in, and the other led the black horse to the stable behind him.
Stepping into the courtyard and bypassing the shadow wall, the seemingly ordinary courtyard suddenly became wider, and it turned out to be a different cave.
There are four connected courtyards here, but the middle furniture has been opened, and only one door is taken to enter and exit, so there is no clue from the outside, and it cannot attract the attention of others.
Xuan Fei walked on the bluestone corridor in the courtyard with his hands in his hands, and the two rows of lanterns with delicate stone carvings as the base on his side emitted a long light, gilding that perfect face with a layer of gold.
In addition to the one who followed behind, two small men in the same clothes walked out of the main room in the courtyard, both of whom respectfully stepped forward to welcome people into the house, "Childe is back." But when he went to pick up the wooden box he was holding, he was dodged.
Xuan Fei still didn't say a word, and after sending the wooden box into the study, he went directly to the clean room.
In the clean room, a set of snow-white shirts that are ironed flat hangs on the wooden hangers, and the wooden barrel behind the double-sided embroidered Eight Horses is steaming.
At this time, seeing that Xuanfei had no other instructions, the little guy who was familiar with his temper quietly withdrew from the clean room.
When the door was closed, Xuan Fei walked into the screen, untied the jade belt around his waist, and took off the dark robe embroidered with the Tengyun pattern on the placket and cuffs, revealing a back with smooth lines and lean muscles.
Xuan Fei has not yet reached the age of a weak crown, but his figure is already very close to that of an adult man, he is long and thin when he puts on his clothes, but he looks strong and powerful when he takes off his clothes.
He stepped his slender and straight thighs into the barrel, and when his body was fully immersed in the hot water, he raised his hand and pulled out the jasper hairpin that bound his hair. The long hair was scattered, and the black silk exuded a luster like a fine cloud brocade, and it was submerged in the water, like a beautiful ink painting.

After finishing dinner, Hua Chen drank two more cups of tea before leaving the inner courtyard.
It's just that as soon as he walked out of his sister's east wing, he saw that there were two subordinates probing their brains in the ear room where the subordinates lived, and they didn't know what they were probing.
Looking at the sneaky figure, Hua Chen sighed lightly, presumably these people won't easily convince his sister, right?
But he really can't start with the matter of the inner courtyard and doesn't know where to start, all he can do now is to stand silently by his sister's side.
With this slightly uneasy mood, he went out of the inner courtyard, and slept a not very solid sleep, until he woke up the next morning, he heard that the maid Wenzhu in the house had been transferred back to the inner courtyard.
Wen Zhu was the person sent to him by the Luo clan, and now in his own yard, he didn't have to guard against anyone carefully.
Thinking like this, my heart is much happier.

Zhi Tao and Yanran went to the pantry of Honghun Courtyard early in the morning to get hot water.
When he walked to the door, he heard a discussion coming from inside: "What is terrible, but it is a little girl who is not yet twelve years old." ”
It's just that they opened the curtain and went in, and all the people who were talking about it closed their mouths.
The two of them carried hot water, and turned away under the gaze of all the stunned eyes.
It's just that these subordinates don't know at this time that after breakfast, the inner courtyard of Honghun Courtyard will usher in a reform that they didn't expect.
