Will you return the money?

This time, Mr. Yin didn't call any driver, but acted as the driver himself, and drove Xin Taofu out of the city.

They almost walked out of the city all the way, and when they reached a mountain, there were people guarding at the foot of the mountain. When they saw Mr. Yin coming, they all signaled for him.Mr. Yin gave a red envelope to each of them, and continued to drive until they reached the middle of the mountain. There was an old-style courtyard with a sign hanging on the gate, with the words "Xiaoxiang Xiaozhu" written in thin gold.

Xin Taofu originally thought that it would be an elegant and splendid small courtyard when he entered it. Unexpectedly, when he pushed the door, the inside was really luxuriant and bleak, and there was no beautiful rockery garden. Xiaoxiang bamboo poles, over the bamboo, through the cave gate, inside is a two-storey small building with mossy green tiles and mottled rich doors.

Xin Taofu was a little surprised, and said, "Are the people at the bottom of the mountain lazy and not cleaning up here regularly?"

Mr. Yin said, "No."

Afterwards, Xin Taofu saw with his own eyes that Mr. Yin rolled up his sleeves and began to clean up and remove weeds.

Seeing Mr. Yin working so hard, Xin Taofu couldn't help but say, "Do you want me to help?"

Mr. Yin smiled and said, "No, you can take a stroll around the house."

Xin Taofu could feel that Mr. Yin's "no need" was not a polite word, he really didn't need anyone's help, and he didn't want anyone to intervene.

He would rather do it alone.

Xin Taofu said again: "I'm alone?... Then, is there anything in the house that you can't touch, or a room you can't go to?"

Mr. Yin still smiled: "No, as long as you don't break things."

Xin Taofu really walked around the house.

This small building looks like it has been around for some years, and the furnishings and decoration inside can be seen in the old style, making people feel like they were in a hundred years ago.However, modern devices are also available, such as televisions, air conditioners and so on.

After Mr. Yin brought Xin Taofu into the house, he turned on the heater for him first, saying, "Don't let the young master catch a cold".

The room was warm and warm, but Xin Taofu was a little worried about Mr. "He is dressed thinly, so I don't know if it's cold outside."So worried, Xin Taofu looked out the window, trying to find Mr.

But seeing Mr. Yin wearing a black shirt and slacks, holding a hoe to remove weeds, from his neat and powerful movements, it is really hard to tell that he is a pampered young master.

It is rare for Mr. Yin not to wear a suit, and what is even more rare is that his hair is messed up, sweating, and short of breath. Except for some indescribable moments, Xin Taofu has never seen such a "unrefreshed" gentleman, but this " Unrefreshed", and inexplicably made him feel refreshed.

Seeing that Mr. Yin's forehead was dripping with sweat, Xin Taofu no longer worried that he would catch a cold.

Xin Taofu felt relieved to go shopping. In addition to the master bedroom, there are two bedrooms in this house. These two rooms are full of feminine style, with jewelry and skirts and blouses. From the style point of view, they look like the boudoir of an underage girl.There was still a photo of the original hostess on the cabinet, and Xin Taofu could vaguely recognize that the people in the photo were Mrs. Xiang and Xiang Xiaoxiao, the sisters.

According to Si Yanxia's information, both Mrs. Xiang and Xiang Xiaoxiao are beautiful women with elegant attire, but in the photos here, they are all lively girls with bright and sincere smiles. Formulated elegance.

Xin Taofu put down the photo and walked into another locked room.

This room is very creepy. There are black and white photos hanging on the wall inside - Mr. Yin's father, Mr. Yin's aunt, and Mr. Yin's uncle...all died in that accident, except Mrs. Xiang .

Mrs. Xiang's photo is not here.

This room has no windows, and the lighting is extremely poor. The lighting depends entirely on a dark lamp and unlit candles.

In the drowsy room, the eyes in the photos seemed to be looking down. Xin Taofu was standing there, feeling cold all over, so she hurried out and closed the door.

Xin Taofu went to the kitchen and found that there was food in the refrigerator.He thought that someone should have taken care of this house in advance, and when the husband came, the people below were not lazy.The outside was not cleaned up, which is probably what the husband meant.

Xin Taofu took a glass of water from the refrigerator, took a sip, and went out of the house with it, and saw that Mr. Yin had finished weeding and was sweeping under the stone steps.He went forward, handed over ice water, and said, "Would you like a sip?"

Xin Taofu knows that Mr. Yin likes to drink ice, no matter what the season is.

Mr. Yin was very hot and thirsty right now, when he saw the ice water being delivered, he smiled, but he didn't take it, he just put his mouth together.Xin Taofu thoughtfully fed him water, and said, "Are you tired, sir?"

Mr. Yin said: "I'm a little tired, do you want to help?"

Xin Taofu knew that Mr. Yin didn't need help, so he smiled and said, "Help, I can help and cheer."

Mr. Yin smiled, and said again: "I really need your help."

Xin Taofu blinked: "What's the matter? I can't lift a hoe."

Mr. Yin said: "Then can you carry a kitchen knife?"

Xin Taofu asked in surprise, "What is this for?"

Mr. Yin said: "Cooking."

Xin Taofu was stunned.

Mr. Yin said: "There are no servants or takeaways here. You don't expect me to cook, do you?"

Xin Taofu understood, and said with a smile: "I said, why did the master bring me here? It turns out that there is a lack of a cook."

Of course Xin Taofu knows how to cook, she used to do it a lot at home, but after entering Wisteria Yayuan as a young master, she worked less.It is also handy to do it now.

He took ingredients from the refrigerator and made a very simple three dishes and one soup.

After the smell of food wafted from the room, Xin Taofu poked her head out of the kitchen window again and said, "Sir, it's time to eat."

Mr. Yin put down his work, went into the room, washed his face and hands, and sat down at the dining table.Xin Taofu said: "They are all simple home-cooked dishes, I'm afraid the husband may not be used to them."

The gentleman smiled and said, "I just want to eat this."

Xin Taofu and her husband sat at the same table to eat, chatting and laughing, there was a kind of harmony and warmth that was not there in the past.After dinner, Xin Taofu simply said: "Then sir, go wash the dishes."

Mr. Yin didn't refuse, he really went to wash the dishes, and cleaned up the kitchen by the way, he looked diligent, seeing him squatting on the ground in his shirt and wiping the floor, he really didn't look like a "sir" at all.

Xin Taofu showed surprise on his face: "Mr. is really capable of work."

Mr. Yin raised his face, smiled at him and said, "That's strange, am I incapable of working?"

Xin Taofu was not used to looking down at her husband like this, so she also knelt down and said with her chin on her hand, "Isn't sir a pampered and wealthy son?"

But Mr. Yin said: "My aunt never spoils me."

When Xin Taofu heard Mr. Yin take the initiative to mention her matter, her heart was moved, and she took advantage of the situation and said: "Well, I saw a girl's room above, is it your aunt's?"

Mr. Yin didn't hide anything, just said: "Yes. This is the place where my mother and aunt loved to vacation when they were young. Since I was sensible, my aunt would take me to live here for a while every year."

Xin Taofu was a little surprised: "Ah, the relationship between your aunt and your mother is really good!"

Mr. Yin lowered his head again, as if he was concentrating on wiping the dirt on the ground.

Even after getting the information from Si Yanxia, ​​Xin Taofu still didn't stop asking about the old affairs of the Yin family. He would inquire about it from Ma Ge and other servants, and now he also went to his family to inquire about it from those young people who were shallower and had big mouths. More details and gossip.

It is only said that Mrs. Xiang is a character who frequently emphasizes in her mouth and actions that she "mourns my sister" and "misses my sister".For the sake of her sister, she never married or had children, devoted herself to taking care of Yin Shuye, and was Yin's father's virtuous helper without seeking fame. does she.

However, there are also people who will sneer and say that Mrs. Xiang's words and deeds are too contrived and her performance is too heavy-but they are usually discussed in private. Due to politeness and Yin's father's face, few people will point it out in public. The biggest exception is Yin Shuye His aunt, that is, Father Yin's younger sister.

Aunt Yin is also a woman who will never marry and have no children. The biggest reason is that according to the rules, as long as she gets married, she is a "foreign surname", and she can no longer touch the Yin family's property.For this reason, she resolutely combed herself and became the "aunt" of the Yin family, but she is a well-known strong woman.

When people in the family talk about her, they admire her with a little bit of pity: "It's a pity that she didn't give birth to a man, otherwise she would be complete", "My aunt is a good one, but she is too stubborn. Such a woman will not Happy", "Although she is high and powerful now, she must be lonely", "As a woman, she will regret it in the future"...

This aunt Yin looked down on Mrs. Xiang very much, and sometimes said directly, "The way you mourn your sister is to sleep with your brother-in-law", such words are always easy to embarrass everyone.Mrs. Xiang is weak and doesn't know how to argue, she just weeps silently.

However, a turning point happened in a certain year when Aunt Yin and Father Yin left the country after a big fight.Mrs. Xiang cried and said, "It's all because of me that you and your brothers and sisters are at odds. If you have a rift because of this, I will never feel at ease for the rest of my life." Therefore, Mrs. Xiang chased her out of the country and chased Aunt Yin back.

What is amazing is that after Aunt Yin came back, she seemed to be a different person and became good sisters with Mrs. Xiang. From then on, they were friendly with each other and never troubled Mrs. Xiang again.

Father Yin was also very surprised, and asked Mrs. Xiang how she did it.

Mrs. Xiang replied that sincerity is the key to open gold and stone.People's hearts are made of flesh, and my aunt understands people. After a long time, she also knows that I have good intentions.

Father Yin couldn't help sighing, Mrs. Xiang is a model who can teach steelmaking and also turn into soft fingers.

In the past two days, Mr. Yin has been very busy cleaning, weeding, and repairing the old house in "Xiaoxiang Xiaozhu".He seems to love labor and gets up to work every day.When it was time for dinner, Xin Taofu cooked the meal and ate with Mr. Yin.

Mr. Yin doesn't put on airs, he eats whatever Xin Taofu does, and the two of them are very happy.

Even Xin Taofu couldn't help but feel that such a day is not bad.

He saw a Mr. Yin who didn't wear a suit and wouldn't flirt with him.He saw a Mr. Yin who was only smiling because of a hot meal...

All of this made Xin Taofu turn into a cloud, transpiring in a hazy hallucination.

Two days later, Mr. Yin had tidied up the small courtyard well, and then he started to toss around the cemetery in the back mountain.

Xin Taofu was alone in the room to pass the time, when she walked to the living room, she saw Mr. Yin's mobile phone on the table.He thought that Mr. Yin probably forgot to take his mobile phone with him when he went out, so he put the mobile phone in his pocket and planned to go to the back mountain to deliver the mobile phone to his husband.

It just rained last night, and the mountain road is not easy to walk.

Xin Taofu regretted coming out a little bit, but since they all went out, let's just walk away, otherwise idleness is idleness.

He walked outside the cemetery, and saw Mr. Yin's busy figure through the bamboo.Mr. Yin put down the hoe, touched his body, and seemed to realize that he had forgotten his mobile phone, so he turned around and wanted to go back to the house along the way to get the mobile phone.

Xin Taofu became playful and hid behind the bamboo, thinking that when the husband came over, he would quietly jump out to scare him.

Unexpectedly, Mr. seemed to have something on his mind and didn't look at the road, but stepped on the mud puddle after the rain.

Before Xin Taofu could react, she saw her husband slipped and rolled down the hillside.

Xin Taofu was taken aback, and walked down the mountain road at the other end, and when he got to the bottom of the slope, he saw Mr. Yin in a state of embarrassment that was rarely seen in a century.

Mr. sat up slowly, and seemed to want to stand, but his foot slipped and fell back again.

Xin Taofu could see that the husband must have fallen to his feet.

Xin Taofu stood aside and suddenly remembered a story:

A demon is locked in a magic circle, waiting for a human to rescue him.

After waiting for a year, the devil spun around inside, swearing that if that person came, the devil would thank him well.

After waiting for two years, the demon was circling inside, swearing that if that person came, the demon would grant one of his wishes, whatever it was.

After waiting for three years, the devil circled inside, swearing that if that person came, the devil would hang him up, torture him with the most terrible punishment, and teach him what it means to live like a year.

……

After waiting for 100 years, the devil has no energy to spin around. He vowed that as long as that person is willing to come, he will kiss that person's toes and dedicate everything he has to it...
