The mess was still splashing water, and he was relieved to see the young man rushing out, and when he saw that there was a fire on him, he hurriedly poured water on him, Xiao Chenyu hurriedly covered his face with his sleeve, and rushed to the shadows in a few steps before stopping to catch his breath, choking on some smoke in his throat, coughing for a long time before he said in a hoarse voice: "The person inside is dead, so I came out by myself." ”

Everyone said that they did the right thing, and they didn't have to risk it for a corpse; Seeing that he was soaking wet, he urged him to hurry back to change his clothes, and Xiao Chenyu agreed to take a long detour from another intersection.

Xiao Chenyu, who had never encountered such a thing, was inevitably flustered, but he still subconsciously did something to disturb everyone's sight.

Instead of going through the front door, I went to the back door and knocked on it.

Orchid was woken up by Lian'er, Lian'er is a bold, Orchid doesn't know what is afraid of words, the two girls got up and put on their coats, one took a wooden stick to the door, Lian'er bent down and looked out from the crack in the door, but couldn't see anything, so she asked, "Who?" What are you doing knocking on your door in the middle of the night? Could it be a thief? ”

Xiao Chenyu was so cold that he shivered, and there was something in his heart, so his temper was not as calm as before, and he shouted in a low voice: "I'm Xiao Chenyu, open the door quickly." ”

Lian'er heard Xiao Chenyu's voice, and hurriedly opened the door, only to see a man standing at the door with a mess and dirty cheeks, and Lian'er raised the stick again: "Who are you?" ”

Orchid completely looked at Lian'er, and when she saw her put down the stick, she followed and put it down, and Lian'er lifted it, and she also raised it and was about to smash it at Xiao Chenyu.

Xiao Chenyu touched his face and said helplessly: "It's really me, can this still be fake?" ”

The dirt on the face was finally wiped off, and the two girls believed it, and hurriedly let Xiao Chenyu in.

Qin Xun woke up as early as when Xiao Chenyu left, and was waiting for him with a lamp reading a book at this time, and was also startled when he saw him so embarrassed: "Are you injured?" ”

Seeing Qin Xun's rare move and nervousness, Xiao Chenyu's extremely nervous mood also improved, and he hurriedly moved his hands and feet to say that it was okay.

Qin Xun breathed a sigh of relief and said busily: "It's all wet, quickly take off your clothes, and I'll go fetch water to wash it." ”

As she spoke, she had already quickly found Xiao Chenyu's middle coat and hurried to the kitchen.

Fortunately, after Xiao Chenyu went out, Aunt Sang boiled a pot of water, which was also used to wash Xiao Chenyu's face and feet when he came back.

After washing, Xiao Chenyu changed into clean clothes and walked to the table, threw the account book and purse to Qin Xun, and sat down to wipe his hair with a cloth towel.

Qin Xun raised his head from the book, looked at the account book and purse suspiciously, and asked, "What does this mean?" Aren't you fighting fires, are you still doing the same thing? ”

It was rare for Qin Xun to joke with him, Xiao Chenyu smiled reluctantly, pointed to the account book and purse and explained the matter in detail, including the person's appearance, speaking accent, demeanor, etc., all described in detail.

Qin Xun glanced at the bloodstained ledger, and did not have the slightest disgust, so he reached out and picked it up and looked through it.

With just one glance, Qin Xun's eyes couldn't be removed, and his brows were unconsciously locked: This account book is somewhat familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere? But I can't remember it for a while.

The words in the ledger are all replaced by symbols, outsiders can not understand it, the ledger turns to the last page, and the lower right corner is a stamp of a red seal, and the pattern is very complicated.

Xiao Chenyu came over and looked at it and was confused: "This is a special word?" The words that were specially made for this ledger? Xiao Chenyu frowned and thought about it, he was also somewhat knowledgeable, but he had never seen such a character at all: "Why don't I extend a few characters down and take them to ask Master Yao Guan, he has a lot of knowledge, maybe he knows what it is?" ”

Qin Xun said to Xiao Chenyu: "You don't have to write, I'm afraid this matter is not simple, how can ordinary people use special characters to keep accounts?" Not to mention the blood. ”

"I'm sorry, I did it." Xiao Chenyu also felt that he was reckless, so he sincerely apologized, and said: "It's useless to talk too much about the matter, I will pay more attention to my actions in the future." But what should I do with this ledger? To stay or not to stay? ”

Qin Xun admired Xiao Chenyu a little, in her eyes, Xiao Chenyu was still very young, and he had never experienced such a thing, it was very good to be able to cover up with instinct in a panic, and now he can quickly adjust his state to find a solution, he is indeed a good partner.

"Don't meddle in this matter again, leave the account book to me to deal with, and you have to forget the account book from your heart." Qin Xun was afraid that his heart would affect his studies, and if he didn't say anything, he would be seen by others.

"......" Xiao Chenyu was reluctant to leave the trouble to his wife alone, but Qin Xun's tone was firm, so he could only agree: "Okay, you should be careful." ”

After talking about the account book, Xiao Chenyu picked up the purse again and turned it in the palm of his hand, the purse was not heavy, Xiao Chenyu didn't care, so he opened the seal and poured it on the table, and the contents rolled down on the table and made a noise, so frightened that Qin Xun and Xiao Chenyu covered it with their hands, for fear of waking up Su and Aunt Sang, who had just fallen asleep.

There was not much silver, about twenty taels of scattered silver, but Qin Xun and Xiao Chenyu's eyes were staring at the stack of folded silver tickets.

Qin Xun stretched out his hand and took it out, opened it, and it turned out to be two thousand eight hundred and fifty taels of silver tickets.

"Could it be that tonight's fire is because of the silver and the ledger?" Xiao Chenyu gasped, he had never seen so much money, and he didn't know what to do, especially since these things were collected from dead people.

It's a pity to lose the ledger, but who is willing to lose these money?

The husband and wife glanced at each other, and then, Qin Xun decisively got up and emptied a wooden box containing flowers, strode over and put the silver ticket, silver, and account book into it, locked it carefully, patted the box with his hand, and said to Xiao Chenyu very seriously: "That person entrusted you to help collect the account book, these silver taels are the hard money he gave us, after all, we are worried about our lives, and we don't lose this silver." ”

Xiao Chenyu: "......."

The sky is white, and another morning is coming.

Xiao Chenyu, who had not slept all night, had just changed his clothes, and Aunt Sang's voice came from outside, saying that Xiao Hanyang from next door came to call Xiao Chenyu to go to the county seat together.

Qin Xun helped Xiao Chenyu tidy up his clothes, and told him in his ear: "If you want to forget about the account books and silver, you can study with peace of mind, and strive to be a champion in the exam, so that I can follow the scenery." ”

"Well, don't worry, I'm going to earn your life." Xiao Chenyu stretched out his hand and hugged Qin Xun into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead, and sighed: "I've been gone for ten days, you have faced these things alone, and I have caused trouble for you, I'm really sorry, you must not regret marrying me." ”

Qin Xun couldn't help but smile: "Your trouble is trouble, but it's not all trouble, don't worry, I can handle it." ”

After Xiao Chenyu left, Qin Xun suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and she remembered where she had seen a similar ledger?

In her previous life, in the place where her old husband's secret hid jewels and silver coins.

The old man would go to the garden to drink tea by the rockery for a day or two at the end of the month, Qin Coriander had met a few times when he went to pick fragrant flowers, and he had never cared about it, and their husband and wife basically went their own way and did not interfere with each other.

But over time, Qin Xun found that he basically didn't like to go to the garden to drink tea on weekdays, and his tea drinking time was extremely fixed, at the end of the month or the beginning of the month, and then he could be happy for a long time.

Qin Xun became suspicious, so he took advantage of the man's absence to secretly investigate, and found a hidden hole in the garden rockery. There were a lot of gold, silver, jewelry, jade, and silver coins in it.

She didn't use anything, she just looked through the ledger, and there was one such seal behind it.

She sighed, in her previous life, she was fortunate to have the whereabouts of this batch of wealth, and Qin Xun used this secret to make a deal with the bustard, so that she could be regarded as keeping her innocence. In fact, things are far from being so simple, if it weren't for Qin Xunqin's skills, and deliberately imitated the famous prostitute Diehime who was popular in Kyoto more than 30 years ago and became famous, I am afraid that the old bustard would have turned against her and let her pick up customers.

Although it was a matter of the previous life, I am still terrified when I think about it now, so I have to take it step by step.
