Huo Changhe looked at Yan Ruyu thoughtfully.

According to the accountant, Yan Ruyu once went to the accountant and knocked him unconscious with a knife.

Moreover, the imperial guards who ransacked the house didn't steal anything, let alone money.

Could it be that Yan Ruyu took the silver?

No, no, the palace has a lot of money, and Yan Ruyu is a woman...

His eyes turned to Yan Song at the front of the team.

The sun had set, and it was dark. Yan Song sat in the shadows, a blur of shadows, unable to see clearly.

Could it be that Yan Ruyu and Yan Song joined forces?

On second thought, it wasn't quite right. It was impossible for the money to leave the house quietly, and it was impossible for Yan Song to lead a team to ransack the house and operate in secret.

Huo Changhe muttered: "Change the plan and follow the team. Jin Collar, you go and do it."

"Yes."

While he was talking, Yan Ruyu had already forced Ruan Xianzao to apologize, and the second young master also came back with some food to comfort him.

Huo Changhe's eyes were slightly cold, and he turned to look at the woods not far away.

The second young master brought back a bowl of bland broth, turbid in color, with a few pieces of fat floating in it. It was already a little cold and had a fishy smell.

They had never eaten anything like this before, but they were hungry and had nothing else to eat.

He greeted the eldest lady, Huo Changheng and Ruan Xianzao, but did not mention Yan Ruyu.

The second wife came over and said, "Hey, broth, does it cost a lot of money? Sister-in-law, it seems that you still have the ability to bring it. You won't be hungry if your parents don't give it to you."

"Second Aunt, my mother doesn't have a natal family, but she has a son like me," the second young master said coldly, "I will take care of my mother and younger brother, so I don't need you to worry about them."

"Okay, I don't worry about it. When will it be my turn to worry about the Huo family?

However, sister-in-law and second nephew, if you have broth, shouldn’t you honor the old man first? His old man has no soup to drink. "

The eldest lady lowered her eyes: "I see you have just eaten solid food, we are still hungry, Heng'er is still young..."

"Heng'er is still young, how much can he eat? Besides, he is behind when he eats good food! How can he compete with the old man?"

As soon as the second lady finished speaking, Yan Ruyu shouted to the old man who was leaning against a tree and pretending to be deaf: "Uncle! Your daughter-in-law is cursing you to death!"

The second lady's eyes widened: "What nonsense are you talking about? When did I say that?"

"You just said that we, Heng'er, are behind when we eat good food and shouldn't argue with your husband. Doesn't that mean that your husband is dying and has only a few days to live, so he is afraid that he will not be able to eat in the future?"

The old man opened his eyes with an evil look in his eyes: "Shut up!"

The second lady became angry and swung the baggage in her hand, and several chubby buns rolled out.

"Hey, what is this?" Yan Ruyu said loudly, "Baozi, Second Madam, you have so many buns here! Uncle, are you full?"

The second lady hurriedly picked it up in panic: "No, I only have these two in total..."

Seeing a few people from the second room surrounding him, Yan Ruyu sneered, turned around and walked towards the woods.

She doesn't drink fishy broth.

When I went to the grove, I saw no one around, so I sat down against the tree and my consciousness entered the space.

She couldn't wait too long, so she took a few bites and took out two meat buns and a live chicken.

Just as she was about to walk back, she suddenly heard movement not far away. She was holding a chicken in one hand and a dagger in the other. Like an agile leopard, she jumped out instantly.

The sword flashed, illuminating the person opposite.

"It's you." Yan Ruyu narrowed her eyes slightly, "What are you doing here?"

Huo Changhe's face showed just the right amount of shock and fear, and he raised the rabbit in his hand.

Yan Ruyu confiscated the knife: "Who are you?"

"I am the accountant's nephew."

"Nephew? You are not from the Huo family. You didn't run away immediately when you saw the exile, but you came to join us?"

"My parents died young. My uncle is the same as my father. I can't leave him alone as he is old. I originally planned to go out and have a career. My son has ambitions all over the world. It's the same wherever he goes. I can make a living in the northwest."

Yan Ruyu pursed her lips and said nothing, her eyes passing over the dead rabbit - a small hole was pierced in the neck, which was fatal.

The man in front of him was bare-handed and without weapons.

"What's your name?"

Huo Changhe smiled: "I..."

"Oh, I remembered. I remember my mother said that the accountant seems to have a nephew named Bajie."

Huo Changhe: "..."

"Is that you?" Yan Ruyu frowned slightly, her eyes scrutinizing.

"No," Huo Changhe said calmly, "I am his brother."

Yan Ruyu nodded slightly: "Okay, let's go."

"how about you?"

"Let me see if there's anything else."

After Huo Changhe left, Yan Ruyu's eyes became colder. She carefully observed the grass on the ground and quickly found a small piece of blood following the traces of being stepped on.

There was also a branch stained with blood.

Yan Ruyu twisted the branch and turned her head to look in the direction Huo Changhe left.

Huo Changhe's smile disappeared without a trace when he turned around. Although he was shocked, he had to admit that the first moment his eyes met Yan Ruyu's, he saw murderous intent.

It seems that the reason why the Yan family temporarily changed their daughters to marry into the palace was not just because they were afraid of being implicated.

Yan Ruyu said nothing and returned to the resting place with the chicken.

Huo Changheng whispered: "Sister-in-law, where have you been? Mother left soup for you."

No, there is still a little soup and a piece of fat in the bowl.

Mrs. Huo was a little embarrassed: "I have wronged you."

Newlyweds usually get up early in the morning and don't eat much all day long. Yan Ruyu must be the same, but right now...

"It's okay," Yan Ruyu was about to bring the bowl over, but Ruan Xianzao tilted his head with his hand.

The little maid went to help her but accidentally kicked over the soup bowl.

The only mouthful of soup left was gone.

Mrs. Huo's face changed slightly, Ruan Xianzao's face turned pale, and she said eagerly: "Oh, how can this be good?"

The second young master frowned: "It's just a mouthful of soup. It won't be of any use anyway. I don't think she wants to drink it either.

Besides, I didn't want to exchange her share when I changed it. If my mother hadn't asked for it, I wouldn't have kept it for her. "

"Second cousin, stop talking, it's all my fault..."

"Don't say that again," Mrs. Huo's face darkened, "We are all one family, why do you always say such hurtful things?

If your elder brother were here, he wouldn't agree. "

"Mother!"

"That's okay," Yan Ruyu said slowly, "My things don't belong to you either."

She brought the chicken in front of her, stared at the second young master and Ruan Xianzao master and servant in front of them, and broke the chicken's neck.

Ruan Xianzao's face turned pale, this time he was really pale.

"Heng'er, I'll roast chicken for you."

Huo Changheng's big eyes flashed: "Sister-in-law, can you still roast chicken?"

"Of course, only a young man who has nothing to show for his appearance will exchange things for food."

Yan Ruyu expertly picked up the chicken with a dagger, making goosebumps appear on the bodies of the people around her.

They are all noble people. They only know that chicken is delicious, but they have never seen it treated like this.

Huo Changhe handed the rabbits over to his men to put them away. He originally planned to secretly give some to his mother and younger brother, but there was no need for them now.

"Keep an eye on her and see what she wants to do."

"Yes."

Yan Ruyu hurriedly cooked the chicken before turning off the heat, and took out the meat buns to grill.

"Mother, Heng'er, one for each of you."

"Sister-in-law, you are so awesome!" Huo Changheng swallowed, "But I'll leave it to you to eat. You didn't drink the soup just now."

"I bought it when I was on the street when no one was prepared," Yan Ruyu pushed the bun to him, "Eat it, you won't be hungry as long as I'm here."

After that, start dividing the chickens.

Ruan Xianzao's maid said: "Leave this kind of work to me, I can do it."

As soon as she stretched out her hand, something flew towards her and hit her in the mouth.

"Snap".
