looking for sister

Losing a maid is naturally nothing to the Su family.

Only two people in the east courtyard wore plain clothes and ate vegetarian dishes until the first seven days.

On this day, Lin Jian woke up very early, so early that even she was a little surprised.

Until the morning meal, it's just Chenzheng.

Su Mu was busy next to the book case, and finally reminded solemnly, "I have turned over the official documents that can be moved here and my father's, and there are indeed no scratches, so most of the things Xiangwu saw were not on these."

"It's okay, we can look for it elsewhere. After all, Xiangwu has never been out of the mansion before."

The implication of this is that the evidence must also be in the mansion.Su Mu nodded after listening, and said, "Today is the first seven days in Xiangwu, let's go to the small kitchen to prepare something for her later."

So the whole morning was spent in the kitchen.

The two sons don't touch the spring water with ten fingers, and the number of times they go to the kitchen doesn't exceed one slap. It's difficult to chop wood and light a fire, let alone stir-fry vegetables with a spoon.

Sometimes the oil doesn't boil at all, and other times it goes through.As long as it is a little more complicated, it is possible to return to the pot four or five times.After a few dishes are fried and put away, the well-endowed kitchen seems to be in a war.

It was already noon when the two came out, lunch was for the main courtyard, and at the end they turned in the direction of the west courtyard.

Lin Jian turned her head inadvertently, just in time to see Mrs. Su hurrying past, but when she got close, her expression turned distressed, as if she had something to say.

Su Mu didn't seem to notice, but continued to walk forward. Lin Jian secretly gave him a hand, and smiled at Mrs. Su, "Mother chased you out, do you have something to tell me?"

This elder was probably ashamed of what happened to Xiangling, and something happened in Xiangwu again, so after several days passed, it seemed that this was the first time they talked to each other like this.Lin Jian looked over seriously, and the unnaturalness on Mrs. Su's face became more obvious.

"Today is the first seven days in Xiangwu. My mother is afraid that you will be careless, so I remind you to make a meal in advance and put it away. When it gets dark, don't come out."

"Well, it's already prepared." Lin Jian nodded quickly, but Mrs. Su didn't intend to withdraw. Lin Jian squeezed Su Mu's arm in the dark, motioning him to say something.Anyone with a discerning eye can see that what Mrs. Su wants to say is obviously not these.

Moments, and moments.

Su Mu didn't speak, so the atmosphere was a little awkward, Lin Jian could only turn around with a dry smile, "Then let's go back first."

"Wait." Madam Su became anxious now, Lin Jian turned back to look, and found that her expression suddenly changed, a little embarrassing, and a little flattering, "Amu..."

Ever since Su Mu was called back from the academy, the mother and son had been at odds.Lin Jian knew it, so she had no choice but to push Su Mu, "Husband, come back to your senses."

Fortunately, Su Mu also cooperated, and immediately put on a look of being interrupted and regained consciousness.

Mrs. Su didn't tell the truth in her eyes, but she didn't hold back as before, "You guys have to go to the west courtyard this afternoon. Xiangling is pregnant, so I'm afraid you should be more careful in what you say and do."

"As for your younger brother, my mother already knows about what happened before, and there must be something hidden in this mess."

"Okay, my son will pay attention." Su Mu didn't say anything superfluous, so Lin Jian had no choice but to follow up, "My husband is sensible, so mother can rest assured."

Seeing that Mrs. Su was going to continue, the two hurriedly greeted each other and walked out until they reached the small wall of the west courtyard before stopping.

"When it comes to being pregnant, I feel very guilty. However, the mother doesn't seem to have much resistance to Xiangling's child. It sounds fine."

After walking a long distance against the wind, Lin Jian could hear the trembling in his throat. Su Mu didn't say anything about the last sentence, but helped him close his collar.

The two walked all the way in, and along the way they also met servants who were patrolling nearby.

Here in the west courtyard, in fact Lin Jian came quite a lot.

In the past, Su Mu always gave him the impression that he had a cold face and a casual smile.In addition, being in the academy with Su Lian, it is natural to be closer to him.So I came to my uncle's house ten times, and eight or nine times out of ten, I would be abducted here.

But since passing through the door, separated by a layer of identity, and added some precautions, speaking of it, the number of times Lin Jian came here again is almost one of the few.

The last time I came in was because of Xiangling's matter. Thinking of this, Lin Jian couldn't help but glanced at the courtyard. The place where she knelt was still open, but she didn't know when water was poured on it. ice.

Seeing them coming in, neither of them seemed very surprised.

Xiang Ling bowed to salute, Lin Jian took a glance and found that she was sitting on a low stool with some plain paper clothes piled up next to her, not many but very delicate.

For some reason, Lin Jian looked at it but felt a little uncomfortable. Seeing him staring at him, Xiang Ling quickly raised her head, "Today is the first seven in Xiangwu, and this servant will take these out and burn them later. You Don't look at it."

When their eyes met, they didn't see any panic, Lin Jian suppressed the discomfort in his heart, and greeted Su Lian instead.

In the blink of an eye, the two brothers had chatted a few words. Although Lin Jian didn't hear it, she could see some confrontation from the posture of standing and sitting.

Su Lian sat on the side of the desk, and the desk was full of spread papers.Most of the pages on the edge are regular scripts, while the pages near Su Lian are obviously messed up.

Cursive script emphasizes vigor and swiftness, agility and variety, but what is placed there right now is chaotic and disorderly.

Lin Jian looked at it, and felt that it was written when she was discouraged when she was young.

"You are restless."

Lin Jian was still there, but Su Mu spoke.

"How to say?"

The pen in Su Lian's hand paused for a moment, but it was only for a moment.When I started to write again, it was obviously much better.

"Look at these words, they are all messed up."

Before the ink was dry, Su Mu did it without hesitation, and the ink stained his fingertips immediately.The paper, which was already messy, became even more unbearable.

"Brother, did you come here today just to teach me how to write?"

The heart that had finally settled down was disturbed again, and Su Lian's attitude changed immediately.But compared to being questioned for the first time, it was much better.

Su Mu didn't speak, just pushed Lin Jian lightly, and the latter immediately understood and waved to Xiang Ling.

When Xiang Ling approached, he seemed to point casually, "Xiang Ling, take a look, do you know this word?"

Coincidentally, what Su Lian is facing right now is "The Classic of Looking at Horses" written by Sun Yang, so the whole text is filled with the word "horse". Xiangwu also told me before that you have been practicing handwriting, very hardworking and hardworking, although you can't easily read the whole book, but it's so simple, you should know it."

"I know." Xiang Ling couldn't move for a while, she didn't know if it was an illusion, she even felt some dark wind gusts behind her.

"Let me ask again, around 89:[-], did you hear Xiangwu mention paper-made things to you, no matter what?" Su Mu stepped forward to help, but there was a sudden "bang" behind him.

Xiang Ling was startled, and immediately ran towards the door. Fortunately, the wooden door was blown open by the wind.

"No." When she came back, her face had returned to calm.

Su Lian was stunned for a moment, then sat down resentfully, and buried his head to get his pen.

"It's a small matter like closing the door, as long as one person does it."

Su Mu kindly reminded.

"Oh." Su Lian shook his hand, and the next stroke was distorted immediately, so his face became even uglier.

"Mother said that you should carefully consider the matter with Xiangling."

Lin Jian left this sentence, and the two walked out.There seemed to be footsteps chasing after him, but no one looked back.

It was strange that these two people had no ghosts in their hearts. When the night fell, Su Lin and the others put the fast food in the original Xiangwu courtyard and ran towards the west courtyard.

It was already the end of the month at this time, and the moon only climbed up for a short time before dawn, so the entire Su Mansion, except for the place illuminated by the lamp, was completely dark.

Lin Jian hid at the base of the wall and leaned against Su Mu's half body. At first he just grabbed the man's arm, but later he wanted to rub himself into the other man's body.

He tried his best to hold his breath, but he could still feel the suffocated vibrato.Although the hot air that Su Mu sprayed on his neck was enough to make one's heart jump.But Lin Jian couldn't care less about these things.

Because just under the window not far away, there is a good show being staged at this time.

white.

long hair.

The whistling cold wind seems to tear the whole night apart, leaving ghostly shadows outside the window.

One.

two.

three.

Lin Jian tried her best to suppress the trill in her throat, counting silently in her heart.

"How about I send you back first, and when it's over here, I'll tell you everything that happened."

Su Mu hugged him tighter, and Lin Jian turned around, but couldn't see clearly.But he still shook his head, "No, I'll be with you."

Not to mention that staying alone on the bed at this moment is even more frightening, and he has to stay here to see what happens in the west courtyard.

Didn't hold on for too long inside, Lin Jian regained consciousness again, and heard a scream from inside.

"Do you believe me?"

It was Su Lian's voice.Considering the many ghosts outside, it was his scream that was more frightening.

"The servant doesn't know. The servant doesn't know."

Immediately afterwards, Xiang Ling's voice also sounded.

Then there was a chaotic sound of jingling bells, all mixed together, and nothing useful could be heard clearly.

Lin Jian kept coughing violently until she was dragged back to the east courtyard.

But she didn't care about these things, her voice was squeezed intermittently, "I...cough, I see, it's a letter. Xiangwu, she...she read someone's letter with Cousin Lian."

Later, the heavier night fell, and there was no movement for a whole night, but Lin Jian knew very well that some things could not be hidden at last.
