My son sleeps lightly

Ye Lan waited in the hall with an attitude of seeking revenge, Xiao Chong felt something was wrong when he looked at it from a distance, and wondered if there was a way to escape first.

But it didn't work.

"Where are you going?" Ye Lan looked around.

"I suddenly remembered..." Xiao Chong stopped talking after seeing Ye Lan's expression in the middle of speaking, and walked up to him honestly, "What's wrong?"

Ye Lan rolled her eyes, "It's nothing, I just wanted to ask you, is there any mystery about the painting you asked Xue Rui to send?"

"Mystery?"

"That painting was drawn by a man named Fu Si, who is very famous. Taking out this painting will definitely make your parents feel at ease and marry Ye Xi."

Xiao Chong explained, "Your family members are very thoughtful, and we can't really get Mr. Xue to go there, so we can only make do with it like this. Why, are you showing off?"

"It's not about this, my parents are already very satisfied." This is what I must ask myself, "Who is that person in the painting?"

"Ah, it's Xiao Ao."

Xiao Chong blinked, "I wasn't there at the time, it was my mother who told me about it, and I borrowed the words from my mother."

"Xiao Ao?"

Ye Lan remembered the last time she saw him, the boy was short and thin, with a dark face, he was almost the same as the one in the painting.

"He has grown a lot in the past two years, and it is said that he is also famously handsome in Changling. The painter couldn't walk when he saw him." Although he didn't know why, seeing Ye Lan's expression softened a lot, Xiao Chong also felt relieved, and then said to Ye Lan, "What?"

Ye Lan suppressed all the hostility in an instant, and sniffed, "It's nothing, I just want to know if the painter is good-looking and has to draw two strokes?"

"It is said that it is." Xiao Chong shook his head, "It's really frivolous."

"Then do you think I meet his standards?"

Ye Lan stood up, facing Xiao Chong, with both hands on his shoulders, their noses facing each other.

Xiao Chong shook his head, and gently touched Ye Lan with the tip of his nose, "I don't know if you suit him, but it's true that you suit me."

"Hmph," Ye Lan's eyes were full of pride, "You have such a sweet mouth, what do you want Second Young Master to reward you?"

"Liang Qiu said that he knew a very delicious noodle restaurant, could Er Young Master give me the face to try it with me?"

"All right." Ye Lan laughed, the curve of the corner of her mouth made people tremble, "Hey, I just happened to be so angry that I didn't eat anything in the morning."

"What are you angry about?"

"It's nothing, nothing," Ye Lan grabbed Xiao Chong's hand and went out together.

Xue Rui wandered around the Ye Mansion, one of his tasks was to detect the spies in the Ye Mansion with his keen sense of smell.

This is a bit awkward.

Xue Rui sat in front of the stone table in the middle of the garden, with his arms on the table, drowsy.

He thought it was some kind of arduous task before, and prepared for a long time with great energy. Who knows, except for the thrilling first day, he can't find anything now, and he is bored.

"Housekeeper Xue?" Tao Hua called out as she passed Xue Rui with a small flower basket.

Xue Rui raised his head, "Ah," he wanted to stand up, but was pressed down by Peach Blossom, "you sleep with you, I just pick some petals, put them in tea, and make it for the second young master to drink."

"Picking petals?"

Xue Rui looked at Peach Blossom, his family was considered a little rich, and he had seen many wonderful scenes of young girls picking flowers, but Peach Blossom had such a pink and white face, and as soon as he wrapped his hands around, a flower that bloomed just right was picked off. She twisted it with her fingers a few times, and the petals scattered.

With such rudeness, Xue Rui felt worthless for Hua Hua.

Tao Hua also noticed Xue Rui's unnatural gaze, and stared, "Butler Xue, what do you see me doing?"

"Ah, Miss Peach Blossom, your posture of picking flowers...?"

Tao Hua looked at the petals in her hands, and suddenly realized, "Butler Xue thinks that women should do this when picking flowers, right?"

She lowered her body, leaned over to the flower branch, first sniffed the tip of her nose and thought of it, raised her jade finger slightly, stared at the petals, sighed again, slowly twirled the petals down, and showed a smile to Xue Rui. With a charming smile, "Is that so?"

Xue Rui's heart moved, "This is indeed what I usually see."

Hearing this, Taohua snorted coldly, her expression changed, and then she picked the flowers as she did, "It looks like I haven't done any work."

Eh?

"It's probably because I saw that you look good, so I purposely put on a show in front of you," Tao Hua smacked her lips, "Butler Xue, you are also in charge of the affairs of the house after all, so you allow the subordinates to behave like this?"

Xue Rui was taken aback for a moment, almost giving himself away, and quickly said, "Our mansion has its own maid to manage the female relatives, and I will not interfere."

Tao Hua nodded, "That's no wonder."

Xue Rui stared at Taohua, "Miss Taohua, have you been serving the second young master?"

Peach Blossom picked lace and said, "No, our second young master used to have a servant, and I didn't need me for daily life, so I just helped with some things in the kitchen."

"Aren't you good at cooking?"

Taohua narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Have you tasted the elbow at noon today?"

"Taste it, it's delicious," Xue Rui asked, "Girl Peach Blossom, you made it?"

"Of course not, I made the tomato and egg soup."

Xue Rui, who was bent on pleasing him, was so embarrassed that he wanted to explain, "The soup is also..."

Taohua laughed loudly, "It's alright, alright, I know what I am worth, and Steward Xue doesn't have to do that."

Xue Rui bowed his head, he was considered a clever person under Xiao Chong's command, he didn't expect to be laughed like this by Taohua, but he didn't feel awkward at all.

Such a naughty girl will only make people feel good.

Seeing that there were enough flowers in the flower basket, Taohua decided to go home, and apologized to Xue Rui before leaving, "Don't worry about Steward Xue, my mouth is poisonous, and I will always be scolded by the second young master."

"How could it be?" Xue Rui looked at the back of Taohua leaving, and couldn't help laughing. It's not Taohua's fault, but his own clumsiness.

He went back to the table again, and suddenly he didn't feel sleepy, he finally remembered Xiao Chong's order, he wanted to get in touch with the servants of Ye Fu, so as to find He Ying and He Yu's spies.

He's all for business.
