Refinement

Xiao Jiu'er couldn't find Su Yulian anywhere, and was about to shed tears when Su Yulian appeared from behind her and gave her a bright smile that almost melted her heart.

"Young master! You—you scared Xiao Jiuer to death—"

Su Yulian took the paper-wrapped snack from her hand: "I can smell the fragrance from far away!"

Xiao Jiuer: "Where did you go just now?"

"Um - piss, oops, didn't even have time to wash my hands."

"It's okay, it's wrapped in paper!" Xiao Jiu'er stared at Su Yulian obsessively, why is every movement of his so beautiful!

Time passed day by day, Hou's mansion returned to the calmness of the past, Su Yulian would still get up early, boxing, playing chess, and teasing Xiao Jiu'er.The same goes for Shi Chengqiu, it seems that it is not the first time for him to be a guest in the Hou's Mansion, and his life is very peaceful.One afternoon, Xiao Jiuer was stopped by a person as he was walking through Liyuan Garden.

She followed the prestige, and saw that Si Niu was hiding behind the shade of the tree, only half of his body was exposed, his pure white gown was the same color as the pear blossoms on the tree, making him very eye-catching.

"what's up?"

Si Bi is humble and polite, with her chin in her mouth, and her voice is soft and soft: "Si Bi has something to ask my sister, please help me."

Xiao Jiu'er disliked Si Ni from the bottom of her heart, raised her chin coldly and hummed: "Well, ask."

Si Bi: "Is that sick young master surnamed Su?"

"Yes."

Si Bi: "Then he is Su Zhi's son in Chishui Villa? His name is Su Yulian."

Xiao Jiu'er vaguely felt strange, and subconsciously denied: "No - there is no Su Yulian here, the young master's name is Su Ren. Is there any problem?" Su Yulian got the name himself, no one called him that, but he purposely He asked Xiao Jiu'er to remember, saying that he would ask her to engrave this name on his tombstone in the future.

Si Ni was dubious, with a disappointed look on his face: "If the young master is not the young master of the Su family, why does the Hou take such good care of him, and even turn against the princess to protect him."

Xiao Jiu'er: "Master Hou and the princess fell out? How do you know?!"

Si Bi: "No, no! It's just that the princess was angry for a long time because of Lord Hou. I think it's time to pass. The princess prepared a generous gift to make Lord Hou happy. The two should be reconciled."

"I'm not very clear about the relationship between the princess and Lord Hou."

Si Bi: "The princess and Lord Hou share the same interests, so the relationship is naturally very good. When Lord Hou completes the errands assigned by the emperor, they will get married soon."

Xiao Jiu'er: "Master Hou doesn't like servants to talk about things that didn't happen. I advise you to listen more and talk less, and do your part."

Si Ni seemed to be very sensible, nodded and said: "The villain has been taught, thank you. But--the little son who is in charge of my sister lives in the East Bieyuan near the main courtyard. As for the courtyard, could it be that there is an appointment with an acquaintance in the West Hospital?"

Xiao Jiu'er was a little flustered, and hurriedly interrupted him: "No! I came here at the order of the young master——"

In the evening, at Su Yulian's residence, Li Qie was lying on Su Yulian's desk reading a book. From time to time, he would run to Su Yulian's side with the slips in his arms to ask him for advice. The scene looked harmonious and warm.Xiao Jiuer rushed in, Su Yulian and Li Qie looked up at her at the same time.She looked at Li Qie a little hesitant to speak, Su Yulian said to Li Qie: "Go to the kitchen to see what dishes are prepared tonight, if there is no fish, you can help me make a pickled fish."

Li Qi curled his lips, and stood up reluctantly: "Today's NO.17, every three-five-seven day, the kitchen does not prepare fish!" This is the habit of the Hou Mansion. There were no fish for three days, and Li Qie had already figured it out.

"Then trouble you to do it for me. I like to eat dishes made by you."

Xiao Jiu'er waited for her to go out, then he told the story of how he met Si Ni in the West Bieyuan, and imitated the way Si Ni talked with his chin in his mouth, and described the conversation between the two vividly. "At that time, I remembered what the young master told me not to let others know my intention to go there, so I lied to Na Sibi, saying that you asked me to go there to find him (Sibi), and asked him to come to you at midnight tonight. chess--"

Su Yulian burst out laughing: "Thank you for thinking it out, you are still clever! Has the letter been delivered?"

"Well, it has been handed over to him, but he doesn't seem to trust me very much. You have also lost your memory, young master. How can you be sure that he will help you?"

Su Yulian nodded: "Since he is my uncle, he should recognize my handwriting. There are some things that are inconvenient for me to ask Lord Hou, so I can only ask him to help. Those things that are beneficial to him but not harmful, if you don't do them, don't do them in vain. It's still cheap."

Xiao Jiu'er was puzzled: "What can he take advantage of?"

"As far as I know, Lord Hou spends a lot of time when he is not in the Hou's mansion, and the people in the Hou's mansion are also arranged for him by the emperor. This has caused a mixed situation in the Hou's mansion. It is possible to arrange eyeliner here to monitor and even control the movements of Lord Hou. People like Shi Chengqiu who are 'neither enemy nor guest' are actually very embarrassed to live in the Hou Mansion. No one treats him as a guest, but no one treats him as a guest. Dare to neglect him. His stance is very clean, suitable for being used by all parties, and he can also use anyone in turn. But I just asked him to walk among these 'dragon snakes' and identify who is behind them. Yes He is not in danger, and he can be exchanged for three favors in front of Lord Hou."

Xiao Jiu'er half understood: "So even if the young master has amnesia and doesn't know much about uncle, he can still guess that he will help?"

Su Yulian: "Although I haven't had close contact with him, I have observed him intentionally or unintentionally. I think I am capable but not ambitious. In fact, I really need someone to show him the way."

"Then I called Si Ni here, did I cause you trouble?"

"It doesn't matter, anyway, I have nothing to do all day long, and there is no one to play with me except Li Qi. You can also help me relieve my boredom by calling him here. Go and see Li Qi, the little girl is very clever, don't like me She pulls away."
