Shen Cuttlefish said calmly: "I originally wanted to learn martial arts and do chivalrous deeds, but now it seems that I would rather go back to Anhuai Mansion and continue to go back to Anhuai Mansion and be a rich boy who is idle all day long, at least then, my father and my mother, and the entire Shen family, can be safe and sound." Pei Jingnian tilted his head slightly, looked at the gray sky, and sighed and said, "It seems that the "Scroll in the Snow" hurt you." ”

"Hmph, so you still remember that thing, Pei Zhutou. Shen Cuttlefish smiled and asked back. But Pei Jingnian didn't react at first when he heard this, he was suddenly stunned, his eyes stared at the Shen cuttlefish with a smile on his face in surprise, and said slowly in disbelief: "You, what do you call me?"

Shen Cuttlefish laughed dryly indifferently, and then turned his head to look at the road ahead: "Maybe in your eyes, I have always been a gentleman, but it doesn't mean that I am stupid, so stupid that I can't see that Yan Jie sent you to wait for the opportunity to seize the "Scroll in the Snow", so stupid that I can't see that you have not been dismissed." Am I right, Pei Zhutou. ”

"I ...... I don't understand what you mean...... Besides, didn't the "Scroll in the Snow" be burned by you a long time ago, how could I steal it?" Pei Jingnian was a little flustered and denied it. But Shen Cuttlefish shook his head and said earnestly: "No matter what your purpose was in the past, who you did things for, and why did you come here? ”

After that, Shen Cuttlefish turned his head again, glanced at Pei Jingnian, looked at each other, his eyes wandered, Shen Cuttlefish smiled and stretched out his hand and said, "Miss Pei, what do you say?" Pei Jingnian hesitated, trembling and stretched out his hand again, but finally put his hand down. Seeing this, Shen Cuttlefish was a little surprised, but it was not completely unexpected, he sighed lightly and said no more, and the two of them were silent all the way back to the gate of the cold house.

Bai Xingxian leaned on the door frame and crossed his arms, and when he saw Shen Cuttlefish and Pei Jingnian walking slowly on the same horse, he twisted his face to the side, staggered his eyes, and pretended not to see the two of them. Seeing this, Shen Cuttlefish turned over and dismounted, and walked forward with his hands behind his back and teased with a hippie smile: "Yo, it's rare, it's rare, isn't it Miss Bai who came to greet me personally?" ”

When the Shen cuttlefish stepped forward, Bai Xing tearfully punched his arrogant face. Shen Cuttlefish was caught off guard, hurriedly dodged, shook his head to dodge the punch, held her wrist with both hands and said innocently: "Eldest sister, what are you going to do?" Bai Xingxian snorted coldly: "Who is waiting for you, I am here to practice! Say! Where are you two going? There is no trace of you early in the morning, there must be no good thing!"

Shen Cuttlefish smiled bitterly and took out the stack of herbs from behind him, and said with a bitter face: "Sister, do you figure it out, we are going to grab the medicine for you." Your injuries have not yet healed, how can you heal if you don't recuperate? With that, he shook the stack of herbs and pushed the door into the courtyard, leaving another sentence and saying, "I'm going to decoct the medicine for you." ”

"Just you, can you decoct medicine?" Bai Xing tearfully felt amused, and felt a little incredible. And Pei Jingnian also dismounted and walked into the courtyard with the reins, and when they passed by Bai Xing's tears, the two looked at each other and smiled, and did not say much. When the Shen cuttlefish went to the room, he hurriedly tinkered with it, and his whole body was as if he had rolled in the coal pile three times, dirty, but he couldn't even make a fire. Bai Xingxian just leaned against the door and looked at the scrambled Shen cuttlefish, sneering, snickering secretly, but there was a different taste in his heart.

Pei Jingnian saw that he was really unhelpful, so he could only push him out of the room, cleaned up again, took out a fire fold, put it to his mouth and blew it at a uniform speed, and protected the spark with his left hand, after a while, after a few wisps of green smoke, a gorgeous spark popped out of the top of the fire fold, and threw it under the stove, and the firewood pile that had been piled up before was burned, and sealed the herbs with water in the soup jar, pressed it on the top with a stone, found a large cauldron, poured well water, and waited quietly for the soup to be decocted.

Pei Jingnian squatted down again to watch the firewood burning, then got up and patted the smoke and dust on his body, and said to Shen and the two with a smile: "This medicine will be fried for a while, I have to stay here and watch it all the time, and the white girl will be able to drink it after it is fried later." Bai Xing clenched his fists and said, "Thank you." Pei Jingnian gently wiped the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand, shook his head and said, "These are nothing." ”

And Shen Cuttlefish on the side said angrily: "I also have merit, why don't you thank me?" As soon as these words came out, they attracted countless white eyes of Bai Xing's tears: "You are embarrassed to say, look at your gray face, you can't do anything." Shen Cuttlefish was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and hurriedly changed the topic and said: "It's still Miss Pei's ingenuity, she can do anything, not only is she strong in martial arts, but she is also proficient in the trivial things in this life, which is really amazing." ”

Pei Jingnian replied: "This is also a matter of course." After all, you are the children of a big family, and this kind of trivial matter is naturally handed over to the subordinates in the family to do, and it is reasonable that you will not do it. The children of poor families are in charge of the family at an early age, and I started doing these things at a very young age. Shen Cuttlefish touched his chin and groaned for a moment before saying, "I vaguely remember that Miss Pei doesn't seem to be an An Huai person, right?"

"Yes, my family used to live in Lu'an Mansion. I only moved to Anhuai ten years ago. Pei Jingnian wanted to speak and stopped, and Shen Cuttlefish didn't want to ask more. Pei Jingnian suddenly asked, "Eh, why don't you see Master Mingjue?" Shen Cuttlefish also remembered that since he returned to Leng's house, he hadn't seen Leng Qizhu and Mingjue. Shirahoshi said with tears in his eyes, "The two of them are discussing the Dharma in the room. I couldn't understand, so I came out to breathe. ”

As he was talking, another head poked out of the door, and everyone looked at it, it was the cold abandoned pearl. Leng Qizhu said with a smile: "I don't know if you need my help?" Pei Jingnian replied truthfully: "No need, everything has been arranged." Isn't Young Master Leng discussing the Dharma with Master Mingjue, why did he come here?" Leng Qizhu slowly walked into the room, patted his head and said, "After studying the Dharma for a long time, it's time to rest. ”

Shen Cuttlefish couldn't help but shake his head and admire: "Leng Gongzi is worthy of being a scholar, erudite and knowledgeable, rich in learning, not only can he write novels, but he also has studied the unfathomable Buddhism. Leng Qizhu waved his hand again and again and said: "This is a bad statement, how can the late students afford it? It's not that I'm erudite, but I have a little bit of knowledge in the doctrines of various sects and factions, and everything is loose and simple." ”

And when Leng Qizhu said this, he stood up again, his expression changed slightly, he showed a little embarrassment, and asked cautiously: "I don't know if Shen Gongzi and Miss Pei entered the city smoothly?" Shen Qiuyu took a big knife on the side: "Everything is going well, what's wrong?" Leng Qizhu's tightly locked brows relaxed, as if he was breathing a sigh of relief, his face was much better, and he replied with a smile: "It's good, it's good." Then he turned around and was about to leave.

But in a hurry, his mind was uncertain, he almost tripped over the threshold, and stumbled forward, Bai Xing's teary eyes were quick, and he hurriedly leaned down and grabbed Leng Qizhu's belt and lifted it up, and his left hand was behind him, helping Leng Qizhu up, standing up straight, and patting him on the shoulder and laughing: "Leng Gongzi, be careful." Leng Qizhu absentmindedly looked back and hugged his fists to thank him.

Just as he was about to leave, he stopped, and suddenly turned back and asked, "Shen Gongzi, when you came back, did you meet anyone?" Pei Jingnian heard this, his heart chuckled, his face changed slightly, and he hurriedly glanced at the Shen cuttlefish, how could Shen cuttlefish turn a blind eye, as if he didn't see it, he also folded his arms and half-tilted his head, meditated for a while, nodded and said: "When Leng Gongzi said this, I remembered that when I entered the city once, when I came back, I did meet a lot of people. ”

Pei Jingnian's hands clenched into fists, but to no avail, he had to pray to the heavens, silently praying that Shen Cuttlefish would not tell the matter of the two people tracking too early, so as not to startle the snake. Leng Qizhu's face was also cold when he heard this, his eyes were sharp, and then he asked, "Oh, who are they, does Shen Gongzi know?"

"Then I don't know. Shen Cuttlefish suddenly laughed loudly, "Although this Yanzhou Mansion is not as good as Anhuai Mansion, it is a sea of people who come and go, and this trip in and out of the city is full of mountains, and the streets and alleys are full of people. There are so many passers-by, how do I know their identities?" As soon as the words fell, Pei Jingnian's face returned to calm, and he breathed a long sigh of relief, secretly rejoicing in his heart.

And Shen Cuttlefish turned around and glanced at Pei Jingnian as if he had a heart, blinked with a tacit understanding, and smiled slightly. Pei Jingnian also replied with a smile. This scene was seen by the white star tears in his eyes, and he was nameless and angry in his heart, and kicked the shin of the Shen cuttlefish with his toes.

Leng Qizhu was a little trance-like, stood in place and watched for a while, then nodded to himself with a smile, and said to himself: "I see, I see, I ...... so" After saying that, he dragged his heavy body back with a very mechanical tusk. And his back was reflected in Pei Jingnian's pupils, his lips moved slightly, and he thought to himself: "He is obviously asking the person who is following us, what is the relationship between them? What is this Leng Gongzi hiding?"

And the white star tears and Shen cuttlefish in front of them were chasing and fighting in the courtyard, the two of them mocked and scolded each word, but there was no anger on their faces, Pei Jingnian was not easy to stop, and squatted down to see the size of the fire, fiddling with firewood, but in his heart he was thinking about the relationship between the servant who was following them and Leng Gongzi.

At this time, Mingjue was still discussing Buddhism with Leng Qizhu in the room.

It doesn't seem as simple and peaceful as it seems.
