I wish for a long time

Ye Jiu was stunned when he heard this, and blinked vigorously, only to see a white and translucent jade hairpin lying quietly in Dong Fei's palm.

"It really is!"

Ye Jiu stretched out his hand to take it, and after careful identification, it was indeed the one given to Qi Shao'an back then.

This hairpin is made by choosing materials and carving by others. It is impossible for the geometric patterns on it to collide with others.

"Shao'er, it's actually back!"

Ye Jiu put the hairpin in Qi Shao'an's hand, then turned to ask Dong Fei, "Do you remember who gave it to you?"

Dong Fei frowned and thought for a while, "It's the people in the private room on the second floor. When the guy came, the group of people had already left."

Ye Jiu was a little surprised when he heard that, "Leaving??"

Qi Shao'an scrubbed the white jade hairpin in his hands, the joy hidden in his eyes was immediately revealed, with a faint glint of water.

Ye Jiu turned around and glanced at her, frowning slightly, "Then did he say anything?"

Dongfei shook her head, "No, I only left this hairpin, and I didn't get a single word."

Qi Shaoan raised his head when he heard the words, and asked hesitantly: "We don't want money, and we don't let us see who it is, why?"

Ye Jiu thought for a while, "It proves that this person has been with us all the way, either he knows him or he is a threat."

Qi Shao'an's face turned cold when he heard the words, and he tightly grasped the hairpin in his hand.

Dongfei thought for a moment, then her mind lit up: "My lord! Did you forget..."

Ye Jiu looked into his bright eyes and reacted, "That's right, why did I forget it!!"

Qi Shaoan was stunned when he heard it, "What are you talking about?"

Ye Jiu's face was full of excitement, she pulled Qi Shaoan up and ran to the back hall.

Dong Fei looked at the backs of the two who were rushing around in a hurry, and hurriedly stretched out her hands and said, "Be careful with my dishes!!"

In the living room, beside the pillar, a boy in a blue cedar short jacket withdrew from the crowd and quietly walked out the door.

……

Nanniwan backyard.

Ye Jiu walked down the stairs to the basement, then turned around and carefully supported Qi Shao'an.

"Be careful, there is a step here!"

Qi Shaoan was holding her skirt, and her movements were a little slow, every step she took was careful not to step on the corner of the skirt.

After the two stood still, they turned around and found that Dong Fei was already in front of them, groping for the wall.

"I'm going, why are you so fast?!"

Ye Jiu almost dropped his jaw, obviously he got down first, when did this guy run to the front?

Dongfei accurately touched the eyes on the stone carving, and kept poking the small hidden compartment inside, "When you are nervous, young lady."

After Ye Jiu took a serious look, he couldn't help laughing.

I saw Dongfei lying on the wall like a gecko at this time, poking the stone-like eyes of Doraemon with both hands, and comparing them by pressing left and right.

Qi Shaoan raised his eyebrows, looked at Ye Jiu, "Why is Ah Jiu laughing?"

Ye Jiu rested his forehead with one hand, and laughed tremblingly, "Do you think, from this angle, it looks like he is kissing someone wildly?"

Qi Shao'an glanced at her, and it really was her family, Ajiu, who could say such vulgar words at will, without blushing or beating heart.

However, when she looked at Dongfei again, an unharmonious picture appeared in her mind, and she burst into laughter for a moment.

Dong Fei gritted his teeth with hatred, he poked hard with both hands, then turned around and said with his hands on his hips: "It's not because of you, my lord, what are you doing with so many organs!"

Ye Jiu shrugged his shoulders indifferently, but before she could reply, he heard a moderate sound, and the bookshelf next to him was suddenly and slowly pulled open.

Qi Shao'an suppressed the smile on his face in an instant, and there was some surprise and puzzlement in his eyes.

Ye Jiu held Qi Shaoan's palm, smiled at her, and pulled her in first.

Dong Fei snorted, brushed the dust off her hands in distaste, pinched the palace fan with two fingers, tsk tsk, "Hey, it's such an expensive pattern, it's good if it gets dirty."

The secret passage is not very long, and after turning a corner, there are several wooden cubicles in front of you.

Looking at the scene in front of her, Qi Shaoan's eyes widened a little, and her voice was a little stagnant: "Ajiu, this is..."

The small wooden houses look a bit like the ones in the Gongyuan during the scientific research.

Ye Jiu took a few steps inside, looked at the number on the wooden house, and looked back to find Dong Fei, "Which house is the hairpin from?"

Dongfei rolled her eyes and said angrily, "A06."

Ye Jiu nodded upon hearing this, and knocked on the door of the third room.

The wooden door was quickly opened, and a servant-like person was revealed inside. Seeing that it was Ye Jiu, he hurriedly saluted her.

Ye Jiu signaled him to get up, "Bring me the record of A06 private room just now."

Hearing what she said, Qi Shao'an leaned forward with his head, and saw large and small copper pipes on the wall inside, as well as things like cups.

"Ajiu?"

Qi Shaoan was dumbfounded, especially when she saw the paper that the boy inside handed her.

Ye Jiu glanced at the words on the paper, handed it directly to Qi Shaoan, and said with a casual smile, "Please read it for me, I can't recognize it all."

Qi Shaoan glanced at her suspiciously, reached out to take it, and looked at the words on the paper.

"The new official took office...not involved in party disputes...enough to protect himself...Master Chu...stay out of it..."

After Qi Shaoan finished reading, her complexion became more and more serious, she looked at Ye Jiu in surprise, "Ajiu, are you monitoring?"

Ye Jiu glanced at Dong Fei, who was silently nodding beside him, and smiled with bent lips, "Yes."

Qi Shao'an never thought that her family, Ajiu, would be so bold, using the banner of a restaurant to secretly monitor the diners' conversations.

"Shao'er, don't worry, the people here are all the confidantes of the Hou Mansion, so they are safe."

Ye Jiu patted her on the shoulder comfortingly, she took the note in Qi Shaoan's hand, and asked the boy, "Do you remember what the people in this room said?"

The little servant replied respectfully: "Young master, there should be several official sons, who sound young, oh yes, they mentioned several adults in the court, such as the Chu family, the prime minister, and some recent incidents thing."

Ye Jiu nodded upon hearing this, and let him go back into the room.

Dong Fei twisted and walked forward, sighing, "It seems that some dandies and rookies have clinged to some powerful family, and they don't sound like low-ranking ones."

Ye Jiu thought for a while, then said: "So, then you help me keep an eye on the young master in the restaurant in the past few days. Since he left something, he will definitely find it again."

Qi Shaoan frowned when he heard the words, "If it's according to what the guy said just now, these people should not be something we can afford, Ajiu better be careful."

Ye Jiu understood what she meant, and told Dongfei, "I don't know if it's an enemy or a friend. If someone really comes, you can help me keep him as much as possible, and don't mention the Hou's mansion, so as not to cause trouble again."

Dong Fei replied, "Young master, don't worry, it's more than enough for such a small matter."

……

"Ajiu, how on earth did you do that?"

On the way back, Qi Shaoan couldn't hold back, and finally asked.

Ye Jiu glanced at her and said with a smile, "Want to know?"

Qi Shao'an looked at her bright eyes, and with a faint smile, nodded slowly.

Ye Jiu suddenly smiled, "It's okay to tell you, then what good will I do?"

Qi Shao'an saw that she was in need of a beating, her breath was stuck in her throat, and her watery eyes widened.

She finally compromised and pursed her lips, "Then what do you want?"

Ye Jiu took two quick steps, turned around, and walked backwards towards Qi Shaoan, brushing her veil with his fingers, "If I just said what I want, it would be so boring."

Qi Shao'an seemed to be able to see the big tail wagging behind her back, she put Ye Jiu's hand down, "So, what do you want?"

Ye Jiu walked happily backwards, she tilted her head, "Why don't you talk about it?"

Qi Shao'an really wanted to slap the proud face in front of her with a slap, but in fact she did the same.

Seeing Qi Shaoan stretching out his hand towards him suddenly, Ye Jiu subconsciously dodged back, but the next second she jumped forward and landed directly in Qi Shaoan's arms.

"Shao... Shao'er???"

Ye Jiu didn't regain his composure at the moment, he just felt that his hands were pulling his belt around his waist, and in his nostrils was the all-too-familiar Leng Xiang.

"Walk well."

Qi Shao'an gently pushed Ye Jiu away, glanced at the passing cart, wrinkled his nose and gave Ye Jiu a stare.

Ye Jiu finally came to his senses, quickly let go of Qi Shaoan, and walked side by side with her honestly.

"If you don't say it, there is no chance."

Qi Shao'an looked at the lacquered gold plaque on the Zhenyuan Hou Mansion not far in front of him, raised his eyebrows and looked at Ye Jiu.

Ye Jiu pursed his lips helplessly, thought for a while, then raised the corners of his lips, and said with a smile, "I want to eat the noodles you made."

Qi Shaoan froze for a moment, a little uncertain, "It's gone?"

Ye Jiu nodded seriously, "Ah, it's gone."

Qi Shao'an raised her hand amusedly, and stroked the top of her hair, "I only take some weird request, so that's what it is."

Ye Jiu grabbed her withdrawn palm, and hooked the corner of his lips, "If you want, I can have it too."

Qi Shao'an's heart became hot, and he quickly withdrew his hand, annoyed her: "What are you talking about?"

She turned around and walked towards the Hou Mansion, "Besides, you have no chance."

Ye Jiu smiled lightly, stepped forward quickly, and grabbed the cool and soft catkin, "Okay, okay, I've earned it if I can eat the noodles you made yourself."

Qi Shaoan didn't say a word, but the lips under the veil unconsciously curled up.

"Actually, there is no black technology in that restaurant. It's just that I have people bury copper pipes in the walls of each room, leading to the secret room we went to just now."

Ye Jiu and Qi Shaoan walked along the circular corridor together, she slowly explained, "Each cubicle corresponds to five rooms, and there is a loudspeaker device connected to it, they will record what they hear, and then After tidying up, pass it to Dongfei."

"Today is also the first day I use it, and I'm not yet proficient in the business, as you can see, that guy Dong Fei has been opening the door for a long time."

Ye Jiu sneered, Qi Shaoan no longer held her temper when she saw this, she pulled down her veil, her eyebrows and the smile on her lips merged into one, and it was dazzlingly beautiful for a moment.

Ye Jiu couldn't bear to look at her a few more times, and in the end it was Qi Shao'an who pulled her, only then did he realize that they had already reached the gate of the bamboo garden.

Qi Shaoan patted the back of her hand, tilted her head and smiled, "Since you are so sincere, then I won't go in."

Ye Jiu was taken aback, "Huh?"

Qi Shaoan frowned, "You don't eat noodles anymore?"

Ye Jiu recovered after hearing the words, nodded repeatedly, "Eat, eat, eat!!"

At this moment, Wei Yu was coming out of the door, and when she saw the two of them were about to salute, she saw Qi Shao'an beckoning to her.

"Wei Yu, come with me to the small kitchen."

Wei Yu watched Qi Shaoan turn around and walk in one direction, and after a second of stunnedness, she hurriedly followed, "Ah, good."

It's just that while she was walking, she turned around and gave Ye Jiu a wink, then pointed to the courtyard.

Seeing this, Ye Jiu's head was full of question marks, and Wei Yu stomped her feet resentfully after she followed Qi Shao'an's footsteps and signaled to no avail many times.

Ye Jiu blinked in confusion, finally shrugged his shoulders, and stepped into the courtyard.

So when she saw a familiar yet unfamiliar figure coming out of the room holding a teacup, she finally understood the ghost sign language of that girl Xiaoyu.

For a moment, she was stunned, "He... He Yang??"
