Mu Jin has never talked much, what's more, now that she doesn't understand the situation between Liang Zhaozhao and the master, she just behaves cautiously and refuses to say more, just saying: "I don't know if the master has seen outsiders. If you are curious, why not Go directly to the master?"

Liang Zhaozhao didn't care much when she got such a reply, she already had the answer in her heart: that Aunt Yan must be related to them.

Even if he hadn't seen Aunt Yan, the fact that Mu Jin had been in close contact with Aunt Yan for so long would be enough to explain the problem - if not, Mu Jin would not have such a clear smell on her body.

She couldn't believe it was a coincidence.

Liang Zhaozhao raised his eyebrows lightly, and looked at Mu Jin with a half-smile, until Mu Jin lowered his head uncomfortably, and then she asked a question that seemed completely unrelated to the previous conversation: "I don't know what happened to the injury on Sister Mu Jin's face?" What happened?"

When Si Anyue heard Liang Zhaozhao's question, she was a little surprised. When she saw Mu Jin for the first time, she was also curious about the injury on her face. She just thought that a woman's appearance is important, so she asked rashly, not in human Do you rub salt in the wound?

I don't know why Zhaozhao asked such a question at this time...

Mu Jin didn't know why, but Liang Zhaozhao's question was a little abrupt, but the wound on her face was not something that needed to be kept secret. In addition, she had been vague before, and if she didn't answer truthfully now, she might anger the little master. Not a wise thing to do.

I have refused twice before, so it is not easy to refuse the third time, not to mention that the relationship between the two is not equal.

Both Liang Zhaozhao and Mu Jin understand this truth.

So Liang Zhaozhao is not worried that Mu Jin will not answer, and it is not that important to her whether the answer is true or not, she just wants to cheat Mu Jin...

Sure enough, Mu Jin quickly replied: "It's just that I was accidentally hurt once, and it left a scar."

Mu Jin didn't lie. At that time, she was not skilled in martial arts and was almost slashed in the neck. She survived by chance, but she didn't completely escape, and her face was slashed.

This is the path she chose, and she can only accept it.

"That's right." Liang Zhaozhao sighed, with a meaningful tone, "I thought it was because Sister Mujin didn't want to be sent to be an aunt in any backyard, so she ruined her face."

Mu Jin's original eyes were full of disappointment with memories, but when she heard this and raised her head, she was caught off guard by surprise—how did Liang Zhaozhao know?

Mu Jin is not stupid, at this moment, she can guess that Liang Zhaozhao already knows Ru Yan's identity, and also knows that the person she met just now is Ru Yan.

And her scar... In fact, in a sense, Liang Zhaozhao was right.

Although it wasn't self-destructive, she was really hurt because she didn't want to serve others with sex when she had to, like Ruyan, Haitang and others.

Women's physical strength is inherently weaker than men's, and she also missed the best age for learning martial arts.She used her actions to show that she can do no worse than men, no matter whether it is a killer or a guard, she can do it.Because she seldom fails in doing things, gradually the master treats her like Zhao Qing and the others, but he doesn't trust her as much as Zhao Qing.

This time, it was also because of Si Anyue that she had the opportunity to act as a guard temporarily.

But now, Liang Zhaozhao guessed Ruyan's identity because he didn't know where he missed the trick.

If she made a mistake and didn't realize it, then I'm afraid she won't get much favor in front of her master, so she will show clues on her face when she hears Liang Zhaozhao's firm and casual words.

And Liang Zhaozhao caught the change in Mu Jin's eyes, and then hooked his lower lip.

Sure enough, she guessed it right, but she was not in a good mood.

What is the intention of that person sending Aunt Yan to infiltrate the Zhou Mansion?Just to protect her, why send a woman with outstanding appearance but no martial arts?

She suddenly felt that his previous explanation should be carefully considered whether it is credible.

Liang Zhaozhao ignored Mu Jin and took Si Anyue to the private room next door.

Si Anyue was at a loss when she heard that, she didn't know anything about Ruyan, but she could hear the confrontation between Zhao Zhao and Mu Jin's words, and even though she saw Zhao Zhao smiling brightly, she intuitively felt that Zhao Zhao must be in a bad mood .

She followed Liang Zhaozhao obediently, and when she saw Zhaozhao knocked on the door, she felt a little nervous.

"You have something to talk to your father about, why don't I avoid it first."

Si Anyue knew that her father and Zhaozhao had something to hide from her, but she didn't mind, and she didn't want to explore too much.She has a sense of propriety. Before that, her father never talked to her about many things, and she didn't ask too much.

In other words, Si Anyue's relationship with Si Xingjian is actually very unfamiliar, and she doesn't think she is qualified to question Si Xingjian.

After a little thought, Liang Zhaozhao understood Si Anyue's scruples. After getting along for a period of time, she also roughly saw that although Yue'er had followed her father since childhood, the two were not close.

She originally thought that she had just been recognized, and if she excluded Yue'er, she was afraid that Yue'er would think too much, so she brought Yue'er with her.

It's just that Yue'er is obviously unwilling to get involved in it now, and she can't force it.

Liang Zhaozhao nodded and said, "Alright, if you're curious in the future, I'll talk to you after I ask."

"Yeah." Si Anyue obediently responded, smiling like a flower, showing no grievances at all.In fact, she cared more about her dress being unrepairable than these.

indoor.

Hearing the knock on the door, Si Xingjian calmly wrapped the wound on his hand with the cloth strips torn from his inner coat, and then called out "Come in".

After a while, he didn't hear the door opening, so he got up to open the door.Across the door, he naturally heard these short conversations.

Si Xingjian had some guesses in his mind, but he opened the door without much hesitation, and saw that Si Anyue had turned and left, while Mu Jin was standing aside with a somewhat hesitant look on his face.

Mu Jin was very conflicted, and didn't know whether to avoid it, or to go in and remind Si Xingjian first.Go in, what if you get angry?If you don't go in, you might be misunderstood like Ruyan...

Before she could figure out why, she heard Si Xingjian say "Come in", and subconsciously followed Liang Zhaozhao into the room.

Liang Zhaozhao came to Si Xingjian on purpose to ask for clarification. Seeing that he came to open the door in person, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. He even started looking at the private room the moment he entered.

The dining table should have been cleared and wiped clean, with only a pot of tea and a few cups on it.

There are chrysanthemums in full bloom on the high table next to the screen and by the windows, giving the room a faint scent of flowers, but this scent cannot conceal the clear and sweet taste of sweet-scented osmanthus honey wine.

This made Liang Zhaozhao feel a little surprised—the sweet-scented osmanthus honey wine is mostly drunk by women, and men rarely drink such soft wine.

What surprised Liang Zhaozhao even more was that she seemed to smell a bit of blood.

The smell was not obvious, and when she had a hint of doubt, she saw the cloth strip wrapped around Si Xingjian's right hand.

How did he get hurt?

Liang Zhaozhao frowned unconsciously.

Liang Zhaozhao has a keen sense of smell, which is one of the reasons why she chooses to learn medical skills to protect herself, and she must always make use of her strengths.

Except for the scent of hibiscus that was about to dissipate, she didn't smell the smell that belonged to Ruyan in this room.

But Liang Zhaozhao didn't think she had guessed wrong, she still believed that Aunt Yan had been here.

Probably because the windows were open, and even the door was opened for a while to ventilate, and maybe Aunt Yan came to see Si Xingjian first, and then met Mu Jin, so the time would be long enough to dissipate the smell go.

Moreover, only the subordinates came to see the master.If Aunt Yan only wanted to see Mu Jin, she might not have to take the risk of making an appointment here.

Although Liang Zhaozhao was sure, he was stunned for a moment when he saw Si Xingjian's injury, so he didn't speak first.

Instead, seeing her being so silent, Si Xingjian took the initiative to ask, "Is there something wrong?"

When Liang Zhaozhao talked to him, he didn't test slowly like he did with Mu Jin, but asked straight to the point: "Aunt Yan is yours?"

Si Xingjian nodded, with an imperceptible smile on the corner of her mouth, "Not bad."

He added: "If you're talking about the new Aunt Yan in the Zhou Mansion."

Liang Zhaozhao didn't expect him to admit it so frankly, and he couldn't continue with the draft he had typed before.

Regarding Liang Zhaozhao's doubts, Si Xingjian said: The child is too smart, there is nothing he can do about it.Originally, he was reluctant to let Zhao Zhao know about Ru Yan's existence, but now that Zhao Zhao has guessed it, it would be wrong for him to deny it.

Fortunately, this is not a big deal, Zhao Zhao knows as soon as he knows it, at most he will find it a bit offensive.

Si Xingjian didn't panic at all.

Liang Zhaozhao frowned, didn't he feel guilty?Sending his subordinates to sneak into her place, and now she finds out and confronts her face-to-face, so just deal with it indifferently?

Liang Zhaozhao was a little angry. Although he tried his best to suppress it, his words could not help but bring out some emotions.

"What did you send her to my house for? To spy on me?"

Si Xingjian didn't care about her aggressive tone, but asked instead: "Your home? Zhou Mansion?"

Liang Zhaozhao: "..." Is this the point?The point is why he sent someone!

However, Si Xingjian emphasized: "The Zhou Mansion is not your home, the place where I am in the capital is your home."

Then he answered the previous question: "Ru Yan is the same as Zhao Man, but her skill is not as good as Mu Jin's. Maybe she thinks that sneaking into the Zhou Mansion is easy to be discovered, so she came up with this method."

He only asked Ruyan to investigate the news, but he didn't let her commit herself to others, so he didn't take the blame for letting Ruyan trick her.

"Ruyan has a flexible mind, so she won't suffer." Si Xingjian added.

The key is Zhou Yong's appearance, Ruyan definitely doesn't like it.

Liang Zhaozhao is even more angry, who is worried? !

Didn't she know that Ruyan refused to let Zhou Yong touch her under the excuse of being filial piety?It happened like this, and Aunt Yan made Zhou Yong love him even more.

Probably this is the cheapness in his bones, the more he doesn't get it, the more he cares about it.

Liang Zhaozhao didn't care about the affairs in the backyard of the Zhou Mansion. Even if there was no Aunt Yan, there would be Aunt Yun and Aunt Liu. Long before his wife married into the Zhou Mansion, Zhou Yong had taken in several people. The wife didn't care, she had What is there to care about?

What she cared about was Si Xingjian's purpose of letting Ruyan enter Zhou Mansion.

But Liang Zhaozhao now also understands that there is probably nothing to ask, she is not facing Mu Jin now, if he doesn't want to talk, she has nothing to do.

It's just that I'm still a little reconciled.

"Then I've left the Zhou Mansion now, so I don't think Ruyan needs to guard there anymore. Can I see her? I want to know what happened in the past two days."

Si Xingjian didn't hide from her, and said bluntly: "There are many doubts about you falling into the water that day, I asked her to go back and find out. If you want to see her, you may have to wait for two days."

"As for the matter of the Zhou Mansion...they have released the news that Liang's adopted daughter fell into the water and died."

Liang Zhaozhao was a little surprised when he said that Ruyan was going to investigate her falling into the water, but he didn't say much at this time, he just waited for Ruyan to bring back the news.

As for the fact that she is a dead person in the eyes of outsiders... This is what she wanted in the first place.

Liang Zhaozhao seemed like an outsider who had nothing to do with himself. He calmly imagined the possible behavior of everyone in the Zhou Mansion, and then curled the corner of his lower lip mockingly.

A little girl who has not yet reached the age of hair and is not her own. She doesn't even have to do the funeral, and the "body" has not been found, and she doesn't even have to worry about where the grave should be.

Perhaps even the wife will not be very sad, after all, she is not the kind of child who obeys her mother's orders, and although the wife has injured her body due to childbirth, she still holds the hope of getting pregnant again.

Thinking of this, Liang Zhaozhao looked at Si Xingjian with complicated eyes.

His wife has been married to him for more than ten years, and she has only one child, and he has no concubines.And after his wife married Zhou Yong, she was still pregnant in her 30s...

Looking at it this way, it is clear at a glance whose problem it is.

So, he had worked hard for so many years and still had no results, and finally resigned to his fate, because he was his only blood, so he came to pick her up?

This reason is very strong, but Liang Zhaozhao still feels a little strange.

When Si Xingjian met her gaze, she was puzzled, always feeling that Zhaozhao was thinking something bad in her little head.

He hesitated for a moment, but still curious, he asked, "What's wrong?"

"You said before that there is no one else in the backyard of your family. But, I am a woman, have you never thought about raising another son?" Liang Zhaozhao couldn't help but probed.

Si Xingjian didn't think too much about it, she just thought that the little girl had no sense of security, and she was afraid that he would marry again in the future or would be partial after having a son, so she solemnly promised: "It is enough to raise you alone, and there will be no other child."

Liang Zhaozhao:! ! !

She guessed really well!

If the father can't give birth, no matter what he took him back for, he shouldn't treat her too badly, maybe she still has a chance to set up a female household and not marry.

Although it seemed a little unkind to think so, Liang Zhaozhao couldn't help but look forward to it.

Her determination to go back with Si Xingjian became much stronger.

In fact, she always felt that Si Xingjian was very close, and she was unwilling to refuse in her heart, but she felt that the other party was hiding something from her, and there was too much contrast in his actions before and after, which always made people feel that there was a conspiracy.

Now Liang Zhaozhao thinks it is a good choice to recognize this father even from a rational analysis.

Liang Zhaozhao made a decision, and her attitude would naturally change, so she nodded with a smile on her face.

Fortunately, she had an inexplicably good impression of this father, so she didn't feel forced.

Si Xingjian didn't know Zhaozhao's thoughts, and felt that his attitude made Zhaozhao feel relieved.

In fact, Liang Zhaozhao's guess is not wrong, Si Xingjian's body has indeed been sterilized.Not only him, but also the rest of the people who were sent to the Great Zhou Kingdom.

Originally, the people of the Great Moon Kingdom were also afraid that they would develop rebellious hearts after they got married and had children. If they could not have children, they would be much safer. After all, men in this era definitely value children more than wives.

It's just that the sterilization pills for men today are not 100% effective, they just reduce the chance of pregnancy, and as time goes by, the efficacy of the medicines gradually disappears.

The reason why the original owner and Liang shi had only one child was due to drugs, but the more important reason was that the original owner later deliberately alienated Liang shi and rarely stayed in the backyard.

After so many years, the effect of the medicine has almost disappeared.Even if there is still a legacy, Si Xingjian can cure it, but it is not necessary.

There is only one of his cubs.

It's just that no matter how wise Ren Sixingjian is, he would never have imagined that in his cub's heart, he had already been labeled as infertile.

Si Xingjian doesn't mind Zhaozhao knowing about Ruyan's existence, but she is somewhat curious about how she knows about it.

He remembered that Mu Jin seemed a little nervous at the door before, so he set his eyes on Mu Jin for a moment, and then asked nonchalantly, "How did Zhao Zhao know about Ru Yan?"

Liang Zhaozhao didn't mention Mu Jin, but said, "I saw a figure through the window, so I came to ask."

"Really?" Si Xingjian chuckled, "Mujin, what do you think?"

Mu Jin knew that Liang Zhaozhao was kind enough to not involve her, but she had to tell the truth, so she told everything about meeting Ruyan and being questioned by Liang Zhaozhao after that, and finally said very honestly: "I don't know Did Second Miss see Ruyan?"

Regardless of whether Mu Jin really didn't know or pretended not to know, Si Xingjian could be sure that Zhao Zhao had never seen Ru Yan, and she should have discovered the clues in Mu Jin after she met Ru Yan.

He didn't want to ask more about the specific details, most likely it was just the traces left by Ruyan.

I just don't know if Ruyan is planning on purpose or doing it unintentionally.

"What did she see you doing?"

Hibiscus expected that he might ask this question, so she replied without hesitation: "She said she would get the master's grace to leave after finishing the work, so she came to say goodbye to me."

She didn't want to tell Ruyan's request, and she didn't want to reveal what she said to Ruyan about Zhao Man's good words in front of her master. That wouldn't do her any good.

"I shouldn't have seen Ruyan in private, please punish me, master." Mu Jin knelt down and admitted her mistake.

Si Xingjian let Mu Jin kneel on one knee, and poured a cup of tea unhurriedly, "Punishment? You don't have to. Since you two have a good personal relationship, it doesn't matter if you meet."

Even though he said that, Hibiscus was not at all relieved to be forgiven, and the other knee hit the ground.

Mu Jin felt that the "no need to punish" in his mouth was not because she was not wrong for doing so, but because she didn't need to be punished.There are also the words "good personal relationship", slow and oppressive.

Mu Jin heard the warning in his mouth, if she intentionally defended Ru Yan because of her personal relationship, I am afraid that her end would either be to leave with Ru Yan, or die.

She didn't want to ask for trouble, so she didn't say so much. Now that she can't hide it, she can only tell the truth.

"In addition to saying goodbye, Ruyan also asked about the master's attitude. I feel that the master has misunderstood her, so I have a chance to explain."

Si Xingjian didn't expect such an answer, he only knew that according to Ruyan's temperament, he would go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and at such an urgent moment, he would not come to Hibiscus specifically, it was asking for trouble.

He thought that Ruyan wanted to win over Mu Jin, but he never thought that he wanted Mu Jin to help explain.

"Misunderstand?"

What misunderstanding would he have about Ruyan?Even if there is, it won't matter to her in the future.

"She said she doesn't have any friendship with Zhao Man." Mu Jin said this not too long sentence after deliberation.

She and Ruyan are considered to be on the same level as Zhao Man, but in terms of close relationship, they are still far away from their master.

Si Xingjian still didn't quite understand the misunderstanding, but he didn't care.This was originally a trivial matter to him, but he was just afraid that Zhao Man would be teased by others without knowing it, and gradually he would have other thoughts, and there would be bigger troubles in the future, so he warned Ruyan.

Now seeing Ruyan and touching Hibiscus, the idea of ​​planning for a rainy day is even more serious.

Mu Jin is one of the few women under the original owner who has good military strength, and doesn't have so many careful thoughts like Ru Yan, so it's just right for the two girls to be their personal guards.

If he is bewitched by Ruyan, he will have to find someone again, which is too troublesome.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be here with Mu Jin to ask these questions.

"Well, I see." Si Xingjian nodded solemnly, and gently raised his hand to signal Mu Jin to get up.He didn't know why Mu Jin had to hide such a thing, and he didn't think that the original owner's cruelty and his current elusiveness made Mu Jin feel afraid, for fear that there would be unbearable consequences if he got angry.

Mu Jin thought that she had explained everything clearly, and even cleared up Si Xingjian's misunderstanding of Ruyan. Seeing that he didn't pursue her privately providing information to Ruyan, she felt relieved.

Liang Zhaozhao just quietly watched from the sidelines with cold eyes, doubts in his heart, but he didn't speak casually.

After Mu Jin left, Liang Zhaozhao asked, "Why is Mu Jin so scared? She just concealed something in her words."

What Liang Zhaozhao wants to test is, is it because he is moody, suspicious and vicious that Mu Jin is so cautious, or is there something inside that she doesn't know about?

She didn't want to believe that he would be like that.

Si Xingjian said: "Perhaps she has a guilty conscience."

Liang Zhaozhao was speechless again, could she not know that Mu Jin was guilty?Even if you have a guilty conscience, you won't be afraid of being like that.

Si Xingjian also felt that this explanation was too perfunctory, and he even wanted to tell Zhaozhao about these people under his command, so he said in detail: "A few days ago, Ruyan and Zhao Man rushed to Yuezhou together. You have seen both of them. Zhao Man He and Zhao Qing are brothers, and they follow... I have been there for ten years, and I can be considered loyal. Zhao Man is a little bit out of character, but he rarely travels on business."

"This time..." Si Xingjian chuckled, "Both Zhao Man and Ru Yan were negligent, but when Zhao Man was too busy to take care of himself, he still said good things for Ru Yan. Fortunately, you are safe and sound, and Ru Yan has finished this matter. I plan to leave because of things, and I agree, so I don’t care too much about it.”

"The rest, I will introduce you when we meet in the future."

Liang Zhaozhao raised his eyes in surprise. Does this mean he values ​​her?

She didn't think about it, and brought the topic back to Ruyan and Zhao Man, "Zhao Man did that, maybe it's because of pity and pity?"

Liang Zhaozhao is smart, and he has been paying attention to everything in the past two days. He has seen the details and guessed the general situation from the words and expressions of several people.

It is estimated that Zhao Man said good things for Ru Yan, but was misunderstood. Although Mu Jin and Ru Yan have a good relationship, if they explain at this time, I am afraid that it will make the master think more.

Liang Zhaozhao felt that it was fine that she didn't know, but now that she was aware of it, it was only a matter of one word.

She knew that Aunt Yan had been ordered to take care of her before, and the person she should really thank was the person in front of her, but after all those things were done by Ruyan, she had to admit it.

Si Xingjian herself does not understand love, so she has never thought about the relationship between a man and a woman, but it turned out to be an oolong.

In fact, such a reason is the most reasonable. Zhao Man has been with the original owner for so many years and has always been loyal, while Ruyan is the most intelligent and cautious. involved in their own affairs.

Those words were probably made by Zhao Man himself.

Si Xingjian is used to thinking only rationally, and occasionally ignores the human nature of the young Mu Ai. He really didn't expect that Zhao Man would be tempted by Ruyan.

If Zhao Man knew what Si Xingjian was thinking, he would probably be full of grievances. He is 22 years old now, what if he wants to ask for a wife?

As early as four or five years ago, when the master had not reconciled with his wife at that time, Zhao Man was looking forward to the day when his wife would give him the big maid around him as a daughter-in-law.

He is the most powerful guard by the master's side, and he is also the master's confidant. He is a perfect match for the sister A Liu who is by his wife's side.But it never occurred to him that the master and his wife reconciled, not to mention the first-class maids A Liu and A He, even the sweeping maids were dismissed.

The master and daughter-in-law are gone, how could he have the nerve to sprinkle salt on the master's wound and ask the master for Sister Aliu?Otherwise, when the master sees him in the future, he will think of his wife.

Zhao Man waited and looked forward to it year after year, who knows that the past few years have passed, and the master has no plans to continue, he has been a bachelor until now.And he can get in touch with women, only the little master waits by his side, but he doesn't dare to think anything wrong.

If the master knew that he was coveting the maid next to the eldest lady, the master would probably have to take his skin off.

In fact, Zhao Man's admiration for Ruyan is not due to Qing, it's just that he has reached the age when he wants to start a family, and he has never been in contact with Ruyan before, and he doesn't understand her nature. Such a beautiful and lovable woman couldn't help feeling a little pity, that's why she said something nice for Ru Yan in front of Si Xingjian.

In fact, he didn't realize it himself, let alone thought that this would bring trouble to Ruyan.

Si Xingjian didn't know what Zhao Man was thinking. What he cared about was why Zhao Zhao could easily think of the relationship between a man and a woman.

Could it be that she already has someone she likes?

Si Xingjian originally had great confidence in his cub, he felt that his cub must be just like him, a person who is not in the mood to love, but now he is a little uncertain.

Zai Zai has no original memory at all, she is just a real child, and in this world, Zhao Zhao experienced such ups and downs, a little light in the darkness is enough for her to remember in her heart.Zhao Zhao is a girl again...

Generally speaking, women are always more affectionate than men, especially in such an era when men make contributions and women mostly depend on men to live.

Si Xingjian remembered that before Zhao Man mentioned that a son of the Zhang family in Qingmen Lane had a close relationship with Zhao Zhao, and Zhao Zhao was taken in by the Zhang family when he was lonely and helpless after Qin's death.

From this point of view, is that Zhao Zhao's childhood sweetheart?Maybe he also helped Zhao Zhao when he was embarrassed by others.

While Si Xingjian was thinking about it, there was also the old father's worry, for fear that his daughter would be abducted accidentally.

It's just that although he thought a lot, his face remained calm. After agreeing to Zhao Zhao's guess, he said: "This is not a big deal. Since Ru Yan intends to leave, Zhao Man's thoughts will probably be in vain."

The misunderstanding was resolved, and they rested for a while after dinner, and without further delay, the group went to their residence.

Although Liang Zhaozhao was dressed as a man, he was afraid of being recognized by acquaintances, so he put on a veiled hat like Si Anyue.

Zhao Man didn't know anything about what happened, and when he saw them coming down, he moved forward very attentively, "Master, the living place has been taken care of."

"Lead the way." Si Xingjian ignored the eyes of the people around him and walked out calmly.

It's not far from where they live, and riding a horse after dinner was a bit bumpy, so they walked.

The original owner was originally from the Great Moon Country, and his stature was a head taller than most people from the Great Zhou Country.

Even if Zhao Qing and Zhao Man were relatively tall, Si Xingjian was half a head taller than them. He walked in front, with outstanding posture and outstanding temperament, and he seemed to stand out from the crowd.

He was wearing a mask, which was intended to conceal his appearance, but now he was walking on the street, which was even more eye-catching.

Si Xingjian doesn't mind being scrutinized, but it's not suitable for him to be too flamboyant now that he is carrying Zhao Zhao, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.He intended to quicken his pace, but when he turned his head, he couldn't see Zhao Zhao and Yue'er.

A dozen or so steps separated by the crowd, Liang Zhaozhao followed Si Anyue helplessly, looked up at the figure that had stopped in front of him, and slowed down again.

Before they walked, they walked on a path in the forest, and there were weeds to be cleared on the road. Everyone walked very fast, so Liang Zhaozhao didn't realize that Sister Yueer's walking was so... anxious.

Si Anyue's walking, standing, sitting and lying are practiced repeatedly, she has engraved elegance and etiquette in her bones.

Even though she is a little eager to walk now, her steps are not big. When she walks, the curtain of the veiled hat shakes very slightly, and the skirt is like a multi-layered lotus flower in full bloom. The pair are not much bigger than lotus petals. The feet, not even the toes are showing much.

It's nice to walk like this, but it's too slow.

Liang Zhaozhao couldn't help thinking: If there is any danger, how can Yue'er escape like this?

Si Anyue was very anxious in her heart, but it was useless for her to be anxious, she just couldn't catch up.

There was a bit of grievance in her tone that was not easy to detect, like Liang Zhaozhao complaining: "Father left too fast."

Isn't it just tall and long legs?What's the big deal?

A chuckle sounded from beside her, and Si Anyue realized later that she had spoken her heart.She glared at Liang Zhaozhao through the veiled hat, and was even angrier when she realized that Zhaozhao's sister was taller than her.

She gritted her teeth and said, "I'll still grow taller."

"En." Liang Zhaozhao replied with great face, but the smile in the ending made people feel embarrassed for no reason.

Si Anyue blushed and turned her head away, angrily trying to speed up her pace, but Liang Zhaozhao stopped her.

"Don't worry, they're waiting ahead." Liang Zhaozhao reminded, she was afraid that Yue'er would walk too fast and accidentally sprain her ankle again.

In the end, the two of them still sat on the horse and slowly swayed back.

Liang Zhaozhao seemed to be careless along the way, but in fact she had been paying attention to remembering the way. When she passed the Chunlai Teahouse, she was a little surprised.

Although the city is not too big, she never thought that their residence would be not far from Chunlai Teahouse.

This is convenient for her, always find a chance to send a message to Liang He as soon as possible, lest he think that something happened to him.

When Liang Zhaozhao arrived at her residence, she understood why she happened to pass by Chunlai Teahouse.

The house they are renting now is two streets away from the Zhou Mansion. If they follow the usual path, it will take half an hour to take a carriage. It seems not close, but if they go over the wall and walk in a straight line, they only need a cup of tea. The time has come.

Even if Liang Zhaozhao didn't know the layout of the neighborhood well, he knew it well.

What's more, she chose Chunlai Teahouse in the first place, and she also put in a lot of effort.

This teahouse is located at the intersection of the street, and the residents around it are common people with some money. There are restaurants, gambling halls and other places within less than three miles. People often come here to listen to books, eat tea, and chat about the recent new things.

The relationship between Liang Zhaozhao and Zhou Yong is not good, and it is inconvenient to go out. If she wants to know the news from the outside world, the most convenient way is to arrange her own people outside.

If people from outside often go in and out of the backyard of the Zhou Mansion, it is easy to be suspicious. On the contrary, when she occasionally goes out, she passes by the teahouse to come in and have a rest, which is more reasonable.

The teahouse was convenient for collecting information, and it was not troublesome to operate, and it was not far or near the Zhou Mansion, so it was a good choice, so Liang Zhaozhao bought the teahouse.

Of course, the owner of Chunlai Teahouse is not her, but Liang He's adoptive mother.

Some places were chaotic in the early years, Liang He became a vagrant, and fled to Yuezhou with the refugees, and met Yang in a tea shop next to the official road.

Seeing that he was quite clever, Mrs. Yang took him in as a helper and gave him food.

The first time Liang Zhaozhao met him was when she returned to Yuezhou with Liang Shuying four years ago.

At that time, their mother and daughter were weak and young, and they had a lot of property, so they had to hire bodyguards. They only took the official road along the way, passing by the tea shop of Liang He's family, where they still had a rest.

She followed Liang Shuying from Yuezhou to the capital, and returned to Yuezhou from the capital without stopping.And along the way, because Liang Shuying experienced such a sudden change, she couldn't spare her mind to take care of her. She suffered a lot along the way.

Liang He arbitrarily replaced her tea with ginger candied tea, saying to her, "Drinking this will make you feel better." He also gave them a handful of jujubes.

Liang Zhaozhao knew that his behavior was just being considerate to the guests, and he would not have any other thoughts, but thought that the little girl was quite clever.

Later she met Liang He again, and it was Liang He who took the burned Yang to the city to seek medical treatment.

She recognized Liang He, but Liang He didn't remember her.

She didn't remember it deliberately, but who made her have a good memory, it can almost be said that she has a photographic memory.

Of course he wasn't called Liang He at that time.

Yang's husband died of illness, and the small tea shop caught fire again, and Yang was half dead. They had no money to hire a doctor, and they had no place to settle down.

Liang Zhaozhao didn't ask much about the reason behind it, and offered a helping hand, asking Liang He to be his servant.

Seeing that Mrs. Yang was injured like that, and Liang He still persisted, she knew that he was a kind person who would repay her kindness.Although she doesn't need to repay him, such a person should not easily betray those who have done him favors, so feel free to use it.

It turned out to be exactly what she thought.

Not only Liang He, but also Yang's.

Knowing that she saved them, Mrs. Yang asked Liang He to kneel down and kowtow to her before letting them sell themselves, and changed her surname to remind Liang He that they could have their current life because of her, and they should not be ungrateful.

Liang Zhaozhao felt that the name was just a title, and she really didn't think changing the title would have such a big effect.Don't brothers with the same surname kill each other?

In fact, Liang Zhaozhao felt that it would be more reliable to have a deed of selling herself, but it was not convenient for her to let others know, so she had to give up.It's hard to tell them the reasons behind these, and she couldn't persuade Yang Shi, so she let him change it.

With Liang He outside, it was much more convenient for her to do things, and she would not be completely like a woman in a boudoir, ignorant of what happened outside, and Liang He did not disappoint her.

This time she feigned death and escaped from Zhou's house. She originally planned to quietly go back to the city to find Liang He, but the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. Now that she returned to the city, she was with her father...
