Chapter 133 Baoshan
Yan Gou took out a drawing.
The topography is very realistically drawn, and it is worthy of professional origin. In addition to that, there are a few red dots on it.
"There are mines in these red dots, but I have limited personal strength and can't determine what the mine is and how deep it is. Or, let Brother Cheng arrange manpower tomorrow and dig it up? ”
Xianghua thought about it, but said that she was not busy.
"Now we don't lack food and clothing, whether it's these mines or trees, it's not a day's work, it's gone after picking and cutting. If you really want to cut down trees, plant 100 trees first. It's the same with these mines, our family won't fight it unless we have to. ”
Yan Gou nodded and said, "This is reasonable. Then I'll hand over the drawings to you. ”
Xianghua accepted the drawings and said, "The two of you have worked hard for the past few days, let's have a light meal in the villa tonight." I asked Xiangmiao to call Yun Niang and Sister Orchid as well. ”
Yan Gou had long missed the food of the Xianghua family, so he rubbed his hands and smiled: "Then it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate." ”
Wang Chaoyi was halfway through painting in the house, and Xiaofeng, the maid her father bought for her, knocked on the door and invited her out to eat.
"I don't want to eat it. Didn't you reply to the capital today? ”
Xiaofeng said: "Miss Hui, not yet." Miss Xianghua said that there were some guests here today, and if the young lady did not want to come out, she would let the slave maid send some in to the young lady. ”
Cheng Xianghua is indeed very good at taking care of people.
Wang Chaoyi thought in her heart, paused the tip of her pen, and asked, "Who are the people here?" ”
"Their uncle's family, the gentlemen and doctors of the Yamashita School, and their families."
Wang Chaoyi remembered that the woman named Yun Niang said that she had taken care of her when she was unconscious, that is, this Yun Niang probably knew her secret.
When Weiping comes, these hidden dangers must be cleared first.
"No need, I'll be right out."
Wang Chaoyi straightened her hair and clothes in the mirror, and confirmed that she was not half depressed, before opening the door and going out.
Xianghua and Xiangmiao had already put together a table of good dishes, and everyone was about to move their chopsticks, when they saw Wang Chaoyi coming, they all stood up and invited her to the table.
Wang Chaoyi bowed to everyone and sat down near the vanilla.
Yun Niang and Yan Gou sat together, and the two of them picked up vegetables with each other from time to time, looking very affectionate.
Wang Chaoyi's eyes were even colder. This Yun Niang is also a person with some knowledge, but she said those words that day, either intentionally humiliating her, or stupid.
Xianghua was talking to Xiangmiao, but in a blink of an eye, she saw Wang Chaoyi staring at Yun Niang fiercely, and her heart was suddenly worried, worried that something might happen.
“…… Flowers? ”
Taro called her.
Xianghua came back to her senses and looked at her: "What's wrong?" ”
Taro noticed that she was looking at Wang Chaoyi in a trance, so he asked, "What are you looking at?" ”
Xianghua smiled and shook her head: "It's nothing." ”
"Why did you remember to invite everyone to dinner today, because the 'investigation' you are going to do has been completed?"
Xianghua smiled lightly: "It's done, and I also remember that everyone hasn't been together for a long time." Anyway, now I have Xiangmiao to help me cook, and it's much easier than before. ”
Taro nodded, and was about to speak, but Donglin pulled him and deliberately smiled at his sister, meaning to borrow the taro over to talk first.
Xianghua glared at him with a smile, and when she turned her eyes back to look at Wang Chaoyi again, Wang Chaoyi had returned to her usual appearance, looking gentle and amiable and dignified and polite.
I hope she's dazzled.
Yan Gou and Yun Niang and the others went down the mountain after dinner, Xianghua was a little uneasy, so she asked Dabao to pay attention to Wang Chaoyi, and if she went out, let Dabao call her.
Nothing was said all night.
After the fragrant flowers were freshened, they first came to ask Dabao if Wang Chaoyi had left the room last night. Dabao shook his head.
She was a little relieved, but Wang Chaoyi's terrifying eyes still appeared in front of her from time to time.
Yun Niang and Wang Chaoyi didn't have any holidays, why did Wang Chaoyi hate her?
Xianghua thought about it carefully, and carefully reviewed the scene of Wang Chaoyi and Yun Niang's meeting, and suddenly thought of the crux of the problem.
That day, Wang Chaoyi was in a good mood and wanted to go down the mountain, and met Yun Niang on the mountain, Yun Niang said that she and Orchid took care of Wang Chaoyi when she was in a coma, could it be because of this grudge?
Xianghua thought, this is too much, grace will take revenge.
If it weren't for Yun Niang and Orchid Yi guarding day and night in those days, Wang Chaoyi might have something to do. Now just because they know the details of the damage to her reputation, she only knows resentment, does not want to repay the favor, and is not like everyone's ladies.
After thinking about it repeatedly, she decided to go down the mountain to wake up Yun Niang and Orchid.
Xianghua went to the school first, and the school was only strictly constructed, and Yun Niang was not with him.
"Where's Yun Niang?"
Yan Gou frowned worriedly, and whispered to her, "We came back from the mountain last night and washed up and slept very early. But Yun Niang didn't sleep well all night, saying that she always heard someone knocking on the door. ”
"Knock on the door?" Xianghua asked, "Have you gotten up and seen it?" ”
Yan Gou was a little tired and said, "In order to calm her heart, naturally I will get up and look at the door as soon as she says it." But every time I open the door, there is no one anywhere. Later, when the time passed, who else would knock on the door. ”
Xianghua said: "Since I didn't have a good rest last night, I will only study for half a day today." Good afternoon rest, I'll go see Yun Niang first. ”
Yan Gou was a little worried: "Yun Niang was afraid that she would make me sleep later, so she didn't call me anymore." But I know that she tossed and turned all night, so I bothered you to comfort her. ”
Xianghua smiled: "I know, I went first." ”
She took Dabao and Yuanbao towards her old house, and before knocking on the courtyard door, she first carefully inspected the door.
This wooden door has been many years, and the rain and wind blow and blow, and the wooden door has gradually turned black, and the lower end is a little moldy, and some green moss has grown.
But beyond that, there is nothing else to see.
Xianghua knocked on the door and called Yun Niang, but after a while, Yun Niang came and opened the door. Her face was indeed a little pale, and her eyes were blue and black.
She is weak, she has finally gotten better over the years, she didn't sleep all night last night, and she has a cough today.
Yun Niang saw that it was her, so she smiled embarrassedly: "Xianghua, I ...... yesterday"
Xianghua smiled and said, "Mr. Yan told me, you go back to the house quickly." It's hot and cold these days, and it's not good if you catch a cold. ”
Yun Niang pulled her into the house, and then told her about last night's events in detail.
“…… At first, I thought I had misheard, and I was surrounded by my husband, so I didn't feel scared, so I closed my eyes and wanted to sleep again. But when I was about to fall asleep, there was another knock on the door, and I couldn't sleep. ”
As she spoke, her face became even whiter, and her body couldn't stop shaking: "But Xianggong went to see no one a few times, and I was afraid that he would also be so tormented that he couldn't sleep, so I didn't call him again." But the knock on the door was intermittent until the rooster in the village crowed. ”
Xianghua knew that Yun Niang was weak and careful, and when she said this, it was indeed the strange knock on the door that had been strange all night.
