Butler Leng perked up after hearing this.
"If she continues to miss me, the charges against her will become bigger and bigger, and the people will criticize her more and more. What good will it do to her in the end? So, I'm not afraid." Lin laughed. He leaned against Butler Leng.
Butler Leng pinched her cheek.
"As expected, you are the smartest."
The two looked at each other and laughed tacitly.

Shen Ning spent the past three days feeling extremely comfortable.
This small courtyard is quiet and elegant. It is originally located in the most remote part of Shen Mansion, and few people pass by here.
In addition to Lin's deliberate instructions, at night, after Lin left with the people, the place became very quiet, with only the rustling of bamboo leaves in the wind and the chirping of insects in the grass.
Xu returned to a familiar place, and Shen Ning slept particularly soundly.
I fell asleep almost as soon as my head hit the pillow every night, and I slept until dawn, often without even having a dream.
Except for the first night when she slept alone, Xiaoru stayed with her for the other two nights.
But she didn't know why, but every morning when she woke up, she had a strange feeling.
It seemed as if someone had been here at night.
There is always a vague aura in the room.
On the fourth night, she still let Mrs. Lin eat outside for a whole day but was rejected. After Mrs. Lin and others left, Xiaoru came in with a food box.
"Miss, please try it quickly. Today's food is really good. They are all your favorite dishes, miss."
She opened the food box and took out the dishes inside. As expected, the aroma was fragrant.
Shen Ning glanced over and saw at least three items that she liked to eat on a daily basis.
Although Mrs. Lin has not been able to step into her courtyard in the past few days, food and clothing are carefully packed and delivered to the door every day.
If Shen Ning likes it, she can eat a few bites. If she doesn't like it, she can throw the whole food box out.
Even if this was the case, Mrs. Lin was not upset and would still send someone to put the prepared things outside for Shen Ning to use.
Whether these vegetables are poisonous or not, she can tell the difference just by smelling the smell and looking at the color.
Mr. Lin did not play tricks on these diets.
Not long after the two of them had eaten, Xiaoru yawned and said, "I'm so sleepy, so sleepy."
She rubbed her eyes: "I don't know what happened. I felt sleepy as soon as I finished dinner. Maybe it's because I was with you, the eldest lady, and I slept very soundly."
Shen Ning was already a little tired, but after listening to Xiao Ru's words, she suddenly thought of something.
She had been a little sleepy recently, thinking about the hard work along the way, so she didn't take it to heart.
But after hearing what Xiao Ruyi said, I became a little suspicious.
Xiaoru has never been a lazy person, and she is young and lively, and naturally active. She is usually very tired at night, and she keeps chattering like a little sparrow. But these days, when she goes to bed, she is more I went to bed even earlier.
Something is wrong.
"Xiao Ru, bring that cup of tea."
Xiao Ruyi poured a cup of tea for her.
She took a brief sip and then tasted it carefully, but didn't notice anything wrong.
But she still felt something strange, but she couldn't say it. It was just a feeling in her heart.
Xiaoru yawned again and tears flowed out.
Shen Ning smiled and said: "Lazy girl, you look sleepy, go to bed quickly."
Xiao Ru really couldn't open her eyes, so she climbed onto the bed while rubbing her eyes, and soon began to snore sweetly.
