My son sleeps lightly

Xiao Chong saw Ye Cang approaching from afar, and made a "hush" gesture towards him. He pointed to Ye Lan who was buried in the pile of books, indicating that he had just fallen asleep.

Ye Cang walked over lightly, looked at Ye Lan's side face, which was still smeared with ink, couldn't help but smiled, and beckoned Xiao Chong to talk to him outside, "He hasn't slept all night. ?”

"It's been like this for the past few days," Xiao Chong replied, "It's like being fascinated."

"It's a good thing," Ye Cang nodded, "It would be great if I could be so serious before."

"It's too late now." Xiao Chong straightened his back.

Ye Cang looked at Xiao Chong, he remembered that when Xiao Chong first came, he was small and followed behind Ye Lan, his eyes were always vacant, but he didn't know when Xiao Chong gave people The feeling gradually changed, and the whole person settled down.

Although he still doesn't like to talk, it gives people a real feeling of being alive.

Such a boy is always attractive.

Ye Cang patted Xiao Chong, "Just watch him carefully."

Ye Cang wanted to leave after finishing speaking, but turned around again, "By the way, tell him, old man Chen suddenly praised him more, and even my political views in the meeting were approved. Although I don't know why, but It's always a good thing."

"Understood," Xiao Chong held back his laughter, planning to tell Ye Lan as soon as he woke up.

But now, let him sleep more, Xiao Chong fetched a cotton blanket, covered Ye Lan's body, and walked out the door by himself.

He went to the horse yard, just as Zhang Tao was waiting for him.

Xiao Chong asked him to investigate the tobacco shop before, he had some clues, and asked Taohua to send a letter to Xiao Chong, asking him to come to him when he was free.

"Why, such a big matter can be suppressed?" Xiao Chong looked at Zhang Tao puzzled.

"Yeah, I'm also surprised," Zhang Tao said, "Maybe the owner of the cigarette shop has a great background, but the Luobei city lord can't tolerate this kind of thing the most. Even the Liang family dare not do it, who can?"

Xiao Chong thought for a long time, and said, "Continue to investigate, I think the person behind this is absolutely extraordinary."

Zhang Tao was a little strange, since this cigarette shop had nothing to do with Xiao Chong, "Did you find something?"

"Yes," Xiao Chong didn't intend to hide it, "I went into the small building with Liang Qiu to rescue people that day, and I happened to catch a glimpse of someone, and I always felt familiar, like someone from the He family."

"The He family..." Zhang Tao lowered his head and thought for a moment, "I see."

He knew that Xiao Chong wanted to get Ye Cang a firm foothold in the council, so he had to search for enough information. How could he refuse what the little master wanted to do.

"I will tell the people Cheng Yuan arranged in the city to pay attention."

Xiao Chong nodded and said respectfully, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

Although these people are all his father's old subordinates, and they all call themselves masters, but without them, whether he can live until now is a matter of concern, Xiao Chong is grateful to them from the bottom of his heart, and treats them like elders.

But such an attitude made Zhang Tao feel embarrassed, and he became more determined to work for Xiao Chong in his heart.

After Xiao Chong and Zhang Tao finished speaking, they turned back to Ye Lan's small courtyard. In fact, it is more convenient to ask Liang Qiu for this matter.

Xiao Chong even felt that Liang Qiu must have seen that person too.

He is much more sensitive to this kind of thing than himself, so he must have done it long ago.

But for some reason, Xiao Chong just didn't want to ask him, and there was always a faint hostility in his heart, which he had felt a long time ago.

He understood that he was jealous. He and Liang Qiu had known each other since Ye Lan was born.

Mrs. Ye's family and Mrs. Liang's family are good in themselves. The two have played together since they were young, and they have a friendship that everyone envies - they have never even had a red eye.

Liang Qiu had been by Ye Lan's side for a long time, and he was more competent than himself to play the role of guardian.

Compared with himself, Liang Qiu's affection for Ye Lan seems a little more pure, and this is what makes Xiao Chong feel most uncomfortable.

"Xiao Chong!" Tao Hua waved in front of Xiao Chong with a pleat, "What are you thinking?"

"what?"

Taohua put the pleats in Xiao Chong's hands, "Here, this is an invitation from the Changfu, you can give it to Er Shao."

"Invitation?"

Tao Hua sighed, "Why are you so stupid today?" She pointed to the words on the invitation card, "Master Chang Qin is going to get married in two months, isn't that what you told me first?"

"So fast?"

Xiao Chong remembered that the Chang family had just proposed marriage not long ago.

"Yeah, maybe it's right."

……

"Impossible!" Ye Lan jumped up from the bed excitedly, read the invitation card in my hand twice, and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with it, "Is there anyone else who wants someone like Chang Qin?"

While watching Ye Lan jumping, Xiao Chong said sarcastically, "It's still the beautiful and talented young lady of the Su family."

"Impossible, I've seen Miss Su before, she's not blind."

Xiao Chong shook his head, "However, the timing is just right, young master, your coming-of-age ceremony is just ahead of them, and you have to pay the gift money."

"Ah!" Ye Lan covered her face, "I just pretended to have a better relationship with him in front of others, why..."

Speaking of this, Ye Lan suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "Hey, as Chang Qin's friend, should I go to see the bridegroom first?"

Xiao Chong knew that this was Ye Lan's idea.

Most likely I want to see Chang Qin's jokes.

Xiao Chong guessed right, in order to make fun of Chang Qin, Ye Lan finished her homework ahead of time, just to find some time in the morning to go to Chang's house.

Chang's house is not far away, it's time for Xiao Chong and the others to walk for a while.

When he thought of what happened when he was a child, he still had lingering fears about this place.

The servant who came to receive them asked them to wait outside the door, and took them in after the notification.

Ye Lan hasn't been here either, and keeps looking around, but the house is still a house, and it can't turn into hell just because there is a devil like Master Chang living in it.

Moreover, Master Chang has very good taste, there are flowers and plants everywhere in the mansion, it is said that he took care of these himself.

It's hard to imagine how much strength the hand that patiently tidies up the flowers and plants will use at the moment when it holds the whip that tortures others.

But in Chang Qin's small courtyard, Ye Lan's wild thoughts disappeared.

This yard is really busy.

There are no extra objects, only a stone table in the middle of the yard, a few stone benches, and Chang Qin standing there looking at them with a cold face.

To be honest, there are many silent people around Ye Lan.

Liang Si is the silence that can make people ignore his existence, Xiao Chong is the silence that is reassuring, only Chang Qin is the kind of silence that you know he does it on purpose, but just doesn't want to care about others.

No matter how long they have been together, Ye Lan doesn't like Chang Qin.

"What are you doing here?" Chang Qin cut to the chase, he was sure that Ye Lan had no good intentions.

"I just received your invitation card." Ye Lan took out the invitation card from his sleeve and waved it in front of Chang Qin's eyes. Be there."

"Since when are we friends?"

"From the moment I received the invitation!"

"It was all sent by my father."

"Hey, it's all the same," Ye Lan pulled the corners of her mouth, smiling beautifully and smackingly, "You really like that Miss Su?"

Chang Qin sighed, turned his head to one side, "If you have nothing else to do, go."

Ye Lan felt that she had gone too far, and felt embarrassed again, "Your father forced you."

Marriage with the Su family is a great thing.

In fact, the old aristocrats like the Chang family were happy to marry the new aristocrats who were born as merchants like the Su family.

Nowadays, wars continue, crops fail year after year, farmers are mostly reduced to slaves, and the assets of the old nobles continue to shrink. Marrying with the heirs of big businessmen can not only get a generous dowry, but also transfer the pressure of their own family, which is very appropriate .

Especially for a family like the Su family with only one daughter.

From Master Chang's standpoint, it's worth it.

Chang Qin kept silent, but instead made Ye Lan uneasy, Xiao Chong watched Ye Lan like this, and said for him, "The second young master is not in the mood of watching a joke, if you really have anything to help, he can really do his best .”

Ye Lan glanced at Xiao Chong and was moved, so she took out the white silk she had prepared for a long time, "Crying, making trouble, and hanging herself!"

This time even Xiao Chong was speechless.

"Second Young Master, when did you prepare?" He couldn't help asking.

Chang Qin gritted his teeth and resisted the urge to beat Ye Lan, "If you really want to help me, help me out."

Grounding, the classic method.

Ye Lan thought for a while, "It's not difficult to get out."

Chang Qin and Xiao Chong watched him together.

"Please, I'll tell you."

Again.
