In the evening, when Lin Chong came back, his face was not very good-looking, and he just sat down and ate his wine.

Ni Xi didn't know what happened, but seeing that Lin Chong was in a bad mood without saying a word, he didn't ask any further questions.She asked Jin'er who was waiting on the side to go down first, and she personally picked up the jug and poured wine for Lin Chong.

Ni Xi poured out a cup, Lin Chong ate one in suspense, both of them remained silent, one only focused on pouring, the other only focused on eating.

After a long while, Lin Chong finally raised his head, and there was some sadness and boredom in those calm eyes.

He sighed heavily.

"Lady, I'm afraid life will not be easy in the future."

Ni Xi was taken aback, and asked, "Why did the officials say that?"

Lin Chong drank all the wine in his cup, and then smiled wryly, "I just found out today that Gao Taiwei is a kick-ass man who made a fortune, won the favor of the Holy One, and was promoted to be the Taiwei of the Palace Commander's Mansion."

After hearing what Lin Chong said, Ni Xi already guessed that this Gao Taiwei must be the famous Gaoqiu Gao Taiwei in Water Margin, and it was Gao Yanei, Gao Taiwei's godson, who killed Lin Chong and Zhang Zhenniang's family.

Only to hear Lin Chong continue to say: "My lady, you don't know, this Captain Gao is still a narrow-minded person who avenges his personal revenge. In the hall today, I don't know what old grievances he has with another coach, Wang Jin. Wang Jin is sick. In the future, he It's not that Wang Jin is lying at home because of his illness, but he actually sent someone to Wang Jin's house to arrest Wang Jin and bring him to the hall."

The more Lin Chong spoke, the more angry he became, and his tone was full of injustice.

"It's not a big deal. After Wang came in, Captain Gao scolded him and even beat him with sticks. If it wasn't for those of us who pleaded, Wang Jin's life might have been lost for the most part..."

In the end, only bitterness remained in Lin Chong's words, and his brows were tightly frowned, twisting into the word "Chuan".

His mind has always been delicate, and the matter in the hall has sounded a wake-up call for him. Today is Wang Jin, who will he be in the future?

The rabbit dies and the fox is sad, there is no guarantee that one day he will not become the second Wang Jin.

Ni Xi understood what he was worried about, so he gently smoothed the deep furrow between Lin Chong's brows with his hand, and comforted him: "Don't worry too much, officials, you just need to be more careful in your actions in the future, besides, that Captain Gao and There is no gap between you and me, don't worry!"

She knew that Lin Chong was a tolerant person, at least there was no conflict between Captain Gao and Lin Chong now, even if there was a disaster, it would be three years later.

Seeing the concern in Ni Xi's eyes, Lin Chong's heart warmed up, and his melancholy dissipated a little.

"The lady is right, I think too much."

He took Ni Xi's hand, held it tightly, and said gratefully: "Speaking of which, I still thank you, my lady, if you hadn't sent someone to deliver the handwriting to Dianshuai's mansion in time, I'm afraid I would have a hard time today .”

Ni Xi glanced at Lin Chong, and said angrily, "I should worry about the affairs of the officials. I don't want to thank you for anything."

Under the light, her skin is as delicate and moving as white porcelain, her eyebrows are picturesque, and she is as beautiful as jade.

Lin Chong couldn't help stretching out his arms to hug Ni Xi into his arms, his eyes sparkling.

Ni Xi almost burned a hole in his body from his scorching eyes, and a blush rose on his face.

"What are you doing?" she scolded.

But Lin Chong laughed, hugged Ni Xi even tighter, and said cheerfully: "My lady, let's go to bed early!"

what?

Before Ni Xi could react, Lin Chong had brought him to the bed...

A good night's dream.

Second day

After Lin Chong left, Ni Xi slept for a while before getting up. After eating the morning food, she went to the yard for a walk.

Spring has come, everything is recovering, the grass is growing and warblers are flying. On the right side of the courtyard, there is a small garden dedicated to planting flowers and plants. The peach trees in it are now in bloom.

Although there are only two or three peach trees, they are breathtakingly beautiful after they bloom.The pink petals, against the backdrop of the green branches and leaves, are even more beautiful and bright, exuding a burst of fragrance, and the wind blows and the peach blossoms rain down, and it is now a fairyland.

Although this beautiful scenery is small, it has a world of its own.A few days ago, Ni Xi asked Uncle Wang to help him tie a swing under the peach blossom tree. When he had nothing to do, he sat on the swing with a book of poems in his hands and dangled. The afternoon passed quickly.

She took a walk to the small garden, and happened to see Uncle Wang tending the flowers and plants. The peach trees in the small garden were planted by Uncle Wang two years ago. Uncle Wang is the most experienced person in the mansion in planting flowers and plants.

Seeing Ni Xi, Uncle Wang stopped his hands and said with a smile, "Miss, are you here to play on the swing again?"

After a long time, Uncle Wang and Ni Xi are also very familiar, and they are not so rigid.

Ni Xi shook his head and smiled and replied, "I just take a walk to digest my food."

Seeing Uncle Wang's vicissitudes of face, Ni Xi thought of something, "The official told me that thanks to you and the second year of high school for delivering the handwriting in time yesterday, let me thank you a lot, and I will let Jin'er express my heart later. Send it to you."

Uncle Wang quickly waved his hand and declined, "Old man, I'm just a servant. I should do this as I should. Ladies and officials are too polite."

Ni Xi said seriously: "Uncle Wang's hard work over the years has been seen by the officials, so there is no need to back down."

Uncle Wang really couldn't refuse, so he thanked Ni Xi again.

The two chatted casually again, and Ni Xi was a little surprised why there was no senior high school figure beside Uncle Wang. If you know what Uncle Wang did before, the senior high school student would follow to help.

She asked, "What about the sophomore year? Why aren't you with Uncle Wang?"

Speaking of the sophomore, Uncle Wang looked very puzzled, "I was about to tell my wife, I asked the sophomore to wait for me at the gate of the palace commander's mansion yesterday because of abdominal pain, but after I went back, the sophomore had disappeared, so I asked the yamen servants on both sides , only said that the second year of high school was taken away by a nobleman..."

The sophomore was taken away?

When Ni Xi heard this, she became anxious, and asked, "Do you know who that noble man is and where did he take the sophomore?"

Uncle Wang shook his head, "I asked, but they refused to tell. They also said that the second year of high school was lucky, and that noble man seems to be some kind of relative of the second year of high school..."

"It is estimated that the second year of high school should have gone back to relatives, the lady does not need to worry..."

That's right, he will have to leave sooner or later in his second year of high school, and it is impossible for him to stay in this mansion for the rest of his life when he is still young.

Thinking of this, Ni Xi soon felt relieved and relaxed.

But she had a question in her heart, why did the sophomore leave in such a hurry without even calling her to say hello?

this kid!

…………

Besides, in the second year of high school, when he was brought into Taiwei's mansion by Gao Qiu's entourage, and offered delicious food and drink, his heart was still in a trance.

Looking at this majestic and spacious front hall, the floor is covered with thick and soft blankets, and all kinds of delicate objects that he has never seen before are placed. He eats the never-before-eaten food brought to him by the maid. Snacks and hot tea, all this seems to be in a dream.

And all of this belonged to his second uncle.It was the second uncle who was considered by the family to be a rascal and a rascal.

I don't know what kind of official the second uncle is, but judging from the respectful appearance of the people around him, he must be a high-ranking official.

The sophomore was waiting in the front hall cautiously and anxiously.

Until it was getting dark, Gao Qiu finally came back, striding forward with high spirits.

As soon as Gao Qiu came back, a female envoy immediately greeted him, serving tea and squeezing his shoulders, surrounded by stars like the moon.

The sophomore in high school was stunned, and only felt that this second uncle was familiar and unfamiliar.

Seeing Gao Er's surprised and envious eyes, Gao Qiu waved and said with a smile, "Come over to Second Uncle and let Second Uncle take a good look at you."

The second grader quickly got up and walked to Gao Qiu's side, and fell to his knees with a "plop", "Second Uncle..."

"Get up," Gao Qiu looked at the sophomore carefully, and asked, "Why are you here in Tokyo?"

The sophomore in high school cried sadly: "Second uncle doesn't know, my family is poor, I am too weak to do heavy work, my parents can't support me so they don't want me... My nephew has no family now..."

Gao Lian was startled at first, and then furious: "It's so!"

At the beginning, he was looked down upon and disgusted by others at home, which is why he hardened his heart and left home five years ago to wander alone. Now facing this nephew who has also suffered miserably, he can't help but feel sympathetic.

Such a family, no matter!

"Don't worry, they don't want you anymore, and my second uncle is here!" Gao Qiu said angrily.

The sophomore was stunned, and soon threw himself to Gao Qiu's legs and cried bitterly.

"Second uncle..."

No one saw that the slightly immature face was stained with tears, but those eyes were extraordinarily bright...
