Zai Rongxuan.

You Zhang changed into his own clothes, and pulled out the hairpin on the topknot while fastening his belt. He moved lightly, not daring to delay for a moment, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead in anxiety.

He is not a courageous person, but what a crime it is to pretend to be Mrs. Ye and bring outsiders into the garden. He is really stupid to listen to the nonsense of the second lady.If she found out, he would be skinned alive—a torture he couldn't stand even with lasagna skin.

At this time, a burst of orchid fragrance penetrated into his nostrils along with the wind, You Zhang was stunned for a moment, he had just removed his hair accessories, and the things on his face hadn't been removed, so Ye Yao must not find out.

He Zhiyou watched his movements, sat in the wheelchair and laughed.

No matter how slow Ye Yao walked, he would still see him within ten steps. You Zhang was so anxious that he threw his head into the water tank in the courtyard without any regard for etiquette. Gotta shudder.

"You Zhang? What are you doing?"

The woman's scolding sounded behind him.

He supported the rim of the tank with both hands, wiped off the water stains on his face, bowed his head and said respectfully: "Ah... You Zhang has seen Madam."

"answer."

"Subordinate..."

Ye Yao narrowed her eyes, stretched out a finger and wiped his face: "Who did Youer ask you to pretend?"

"No, no one."

He Zhi said quietly, "Why didn't mother ask me?"

Ye Yao turned her head when she heard the words, and approached her precocious daughter: "If you are willing to tell the truth, why should I ask him?"

"I know everything about my mother."

"While I was away, did you let irrelevant people into Ye Yuan?"

He Zhi Youzhi thought to himself, "Huh? What is an irrelevant person? Does You Zhang count?"

Ye Yao's eyes turned cold: "Don't play dumb, has Cang Wu ever come in?"

"If you really don't want her to come in, you should stay at the door all the time. Why did you leave? Negligence is connivance. Mother should understand this truth."

He Zhiyou lowered her eyes slightly, showing a slight aggrieved expression, but her voice was light and cheerful, without the slightest hint of low-key.

Ye Yao laughed back angrily: "You'er, you let her in, and you still blame me for not taking good care of her?"

"How can I blame you." She said softly, "Shui Lian can't kill Xiao Fangdao, no matter whether someone reminds her or not, it can't change this. I like to see old friends reunited, so I help. Is it wrong?"

"..."

Ye Yao really hated that fire, it caused her Youer to be trapped in a wheelchair, hidden in the village where she couldn't see the light, and could only face those old and broken books day after day, which made her speak with a smile. With a tone of neither yin nor yang, he can put on a show better than himself.

"You disobeyed the owner's order and you will be punished in the future. I will not intercede for you."

"You're wrong." He Zhiyou smiled, "You brought Cangwu into the garden yourself, I just didn't mean to disobey my mother."

Hearing this, the one who reacted the most was You Zhang. Seeing that the second lady was going to confess him, Dang even knew that his life was in danger, so he immediately knelt down. His head was drooping, and the water from his forehead gathered on his chin along his side cheeks. Mixed with the powder mud used for Yirong, it was slowly smashed down.

Ye Yao naturally understood what He Zhiyou had done.

Her eyebrows and eyes were dark, but she said in a harmonious voice: "You'er, do you think the owner of the villa will believe your words?"

"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not." He Zhi Youman said, "The important thing is that the mistake has already been made. No matter what, you have to bear the responsibility."

"Hehe..." Ye Yao laughed twice, her eyes were already glued to You Zhang, "That's right. But before that, I have to deal with this usurping house slave first. What do you think?"

"Does mother want to make an example to others?" She raised her head and blinked, "Brother You is my friend, and I won't let you hurt him."

"..."

You Zhang complained incessantly, what kind of friends are he and the Second Miss?It's just that after she broke her leg, she agreed to that ridiculous request out of pity for a moment, and then she was tempted to do many things she shouldn't do. His life belongs to the He family. This is a grievance and a promise, but all these years He has almost become He Zhiyou's servant.

A few words from her made Ye Yao feel murderous against him, he can't deceive himself like before, there is no right way in this world, he has been pulled into her position by He Zhiyou, no matter what she wants to do, he has no way out.

"This subordinate knows his mistake, please punish me, madam."

Ye Yao stared at his face, she had never trusted You Zhang, he possessed special skills and was proud of his talent, the He family treated him preferentially, but she knew that this kind of person was extremely difficult to tame, he was easy to use , Loyalty is rare.Right now, it seems that he really wants He Zhiyou to die, which is strange.

"How do you want me to punish you?"

"Subordinate...I don't know."

"In my opinion, one death is enough." Ye Yao gently turned the radiant Yutiaotuo on his left wrist, and said flatly, "There is no need to be punished, go."

You Zhang was taken aback, his spine felt cold.

He Zhiyou finally turned the wheel, drove up to You Zhang, and stretched out a hand to him.

He paused, put his hand under her palm and let her caress him, but he didn't get up.

He Zhiyou looked at Ye Yao: "Mother, you don't have to take your anger out on him. He pretended to be you at my order, but I didn't intend to 'frame' you."

"Oh?"

"You don't attach as much importance to the owner's order as before, because you have also started to think about your future. Yeyuan is only so big, do you hope it will always be just this corner of the world?" He Zhiyou said sincerely, "Maybe, my rebellion It is in line with your expectations. A pool of stagnant water will eventually rise to clouds and disappear into nothingness, and the 'turbulent flow' in and out of it is the turning point."

"You can't do things that are against your interest."

After a long time, Ye Yao spoke heavily.

He Zhiyou smiled, because this sentence was already a great compromise for her, and compromise and support were only one step away.

"But You Zhang must be punished."

"Mother, it's not the first time he's 'overstepping' like this." He Zhiyou said sadly.

"What?" Ye Yao couldn't stand this kind of pretense, just like she hated shadows that followed suit.

"When I was just burned, you didn't dare to look at my face because it was too ugly—no, it made you sad, so the dressing and food were taken care of by servants, and you never appeared in front of my eyes. Maybe you still don't know what I look like under the mask." She regretted and yearned authentically, "But the person I wanted to see most at that time was my mother, and You Zhang fulfilled this wish for me."

"..."

"He is far more gentle and patient with me than you." He Zhiyou admired You Zhang's gradually turning blue face, "If I were you, I would definitely be grateful to him instead of punishing him."

Ye Yao knew that she was complaining that she didn't care enough about her, she couldn't deny this, but she wasn't guilty.

If a mother only knows how to give, she will soon be consumed by her children.

She smiled coldly, and stroked the top of He Zhiyou's hair with her hand.

"Okay, You'er, I always tolerate your willfulness, it doesn't hurt to do it one more time."

She no longer pursued You Zhang's fault, she even thought that staying by such a little monster's side was a terrible punishment.

Seeing Ye Yao walk away, You Zhang's face softened a little, and he said calmly, "Thank you, Second Miss."

"Are you so scared?" She bent down, smiled and comforted, "You are good to me, so I will keep you safe. Actually, mother is very timid."

Of course You Zhang didn't think Mrs. Ye would be afraid to kill someone.

But looking at He Zhiyou's half innocent face, he suddenly understood where Ye Yao's "timidity" lies.

If she really took off the second lady's mask and looked closely at her burns, it would not be difficult to find that those hideous flesh and blood were not her own skin.

Others thought that Second Miss valued him because she wanted to use his disguise to cover up her wounds, but in fact, he did just the opposite.

Hidden under the golden mask, the ugly and ferocious half of his face was his masterpiece.

……

On the night of the seventh day, Xu Chuilu and Xiao Fangdao moved to the Lenghong Xiaozhu arranged by Ye Yao.

This place is even more secluded and quiet than the leaf garden. Looking out of the window at night, you can see the gurgling stream and the moonlight like silver.

After explaining exactly what color pink is, Xu Chuilu's life is still alive.This made her more certain that Xiao Fangdao had no intention of killing her, and she was very satisfied with the result of the little trial. Of course, Xiao Fangdao himself was not so happy.

She had been meditating for a longer time than usual, and even though she was awake, there was still a daunting coldness between her brows.

Xu Chuilu was never really afraid of anything, and Xiao Fang's stern coldness would not spoil her mood. Taking this opportunity, she could just prepare for tomorrow's gift with peace of mind.

The candlelight was dim, and Xiao Fangdao sat alone in the corner of the room, like a black cat hiding in the shadows, so silent that he couldn't even notice there was anyone here unless he looked carefully.Xu Chuilu also kept quiet at a lower level. When she was drawing in the system, she would not make the sound of the pen tip swiping, but only occasionally the movement of sleeves rubbing and one or two sighs.

[Chao Lu, since you can draw without physical objects, can you upgrade the system and draw directly in your brain!My hands are so tired! 】

[Host, I think this is because you repeatedly deleted and edited and caused anxiety, you never made such unreasonable demands before. ]

【Yeah?But "fire" is indeed more difficult to draw than other special effects. In my previous life, I thought it was a problem that could be solved in a few minutes, but now it seems that it is not that simple at all. 】

[Maybe you just want it to be more beautiful as a gift. ]

【No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense. 】

Don't misinterpret the great painter's pursuit of beauty as the shyness and anxiety of a young girl Huaichun!

[Then... I suggest you take a break for a while. ]

Xu Chuilu followed suit, stretched his arms and waist against the edge of the table, and let out a tired long sigh.

The voice finally caught Xiao Fangdao's attention, and those black and bright eyes opened suddenly, accurately capturing the fatigue of the person at the table.

"Why are you sighing?"

When Xu Chuilu heard this greeting that was as calm as still water, she immediately stopped her movements and turned around and said, "It's okay, I'm just a little tired."

"Why are you tired?"

"Just...maybe I'm not full."

"You have to go to the dining room eight times a day these days, don't you still feel full?"

Xu Chuilu clenched her fists: that was to go to the stove to make fire, not to steal food!What do you know!

When she was depressed, a wonderful way to deal with it suddenly flashed in her mind.

"Actually, it's not that I'm not full, it's just that my hands hurt a little and I don't have the energy to do anything." Xu Chuilu rubbed her wrists, her tone mournful.

Xiao Fangdao frowned: "Hand?"

"Yeah, since you pinched it, it often has a dull pain, I don't know what's going on."

"..."

"Maybe it's because I'm no longer young, and I'm suffering from minor illnesses. Alas, the suzerain doesn't need to care about it."

Xiao Fangdao heard the sarcasm in her words, snorted coldly, and said no more.

The night returned to silence.
