Chapter 118: Late House

Views:

Yu Jin smiled and pushed the door away, Jiang Si sat on the bed and rubbed his face.

Shame!

It's all that bastard. What are you doing with your eyes when you give her vegetables? Made her think too much.

When night came, Jiang seemed to pack up properly, looked up and asked Ah Man, "How is it?"

"It's even more like the time you were in the carriage." Aman brought the curtain and asked excitedly, "Girl, when are we going?"

Jiang Si glanced at the leaking pot, grabbed the hood and said, "You stay, two people are enough."

Ah Man only felt a pain in his heart.

It was indeed thrown away!

There was a soft knock on the door, and Ah Man stood still.

"Go open the door."

The little girl angrily walked over and opened the door, savagely gouged out the person outside the door, turned her head and left.

Jiang Shi put on his hat and walked out.

Yu Jin pointed at the curtain cap: "It's still eye-catching, so it's better not to wear it."

Jiang Si shook his head: "If you don't bring it, maybe someone will exchange me for money."

Yu Jin rarely showed a confused look.

Jiang Si raised her hand and lifted the veil, revealing a familiar and unfamiliar face.

Yu Jin frowned: "Why are you so ugly?"

Jiang Si's mouth twitched: "This is like Miss Chi."

Yu Jin touched his nose, raised his hand and lowered the veil for Jiang Si: "Let's go."

The moon was dark and the wind was high, Yu Jin was very familiar with the road, and took Jiang Si straight to the Chi residence.

In this small town, the Chi House looks very imposing, with blue tiles and gray walls, and a capital "Chi" on the red lantern swaying gently in the wind.

This kind of house is not as easy to enter as Tofu Xishi's.

Jiang Xi glanced at Yu Jin.

"Don't worry, come with me."

Yu Jin took Jiang Shi around to the back of the walled courtyard, where there was a deserted alley, because there was no moonlight, it looked cold and gloomy.

Yu Jin took a few steps back, ran faster, jumped up on the wall, and then bent down and stretched out his hand.

Jiang Shi hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his hand.

The big dry and warm hand held hers, exerting a little force, and she was already standing on the wall when she regained her senses.

Before she could stand still, Yu Jin hugged her waist, because she was close, the voice seemed to be beating in her heart: "Don't make a sound, I'll take you down."

Jumping down from the high wall, at that moment Jiang seemed to be unable to produce the slightest panic, only the familiar breath of the other party lingered on the nose.

It was the taste she had known and fell in love with from a previous life.

Jiang Si suddenly became confused, and his mind was at a loss.

Can she really get rid of this dog skin plaster in this life

"What are you thinking?" Yu Jin asked in a low voice.

Jiang Si returned to his senses: "It's nothing, did you find out where Mr. Chi is resting?"

"Just rest in the study in the front yard." Yu Jin pulled Jiang Si to the study, when suddenly a barking sounded, followed by cursing.

"Grandma, since the master said that he must be grateful to find the girl, the person who came to the door was either a liar or a thief, and I haven't had a good night's sleep!"

"Okay, don't complain, let's beat the little thief out with a stick first."

Jiang Shi looked at Yu Jin.

Found out

Yu Jin shook his head, signalling not to panic.

The two hid behind the flowers and trees, and soon saw several housekeepers chasing several vicious dogs running in one direction.

At this moment, the vicious dog that ran at the end suddenly turned a corner and ran towards the place where Jiang Si and the two were hiding.

Before waiting for Jiang Shi to make a move, Yu Jin flicked his fingertips, and at some point the pebble he held in his hand flew out and hit the vicious dog between the eyes.

The vicious dog swayed and fell to the ground.

The housekeepers were busy catching the thief and didn't notice it.

"Go." Yu Jin clenched Jiang Shi's wrist and pulled her around to the study window.

The windows were open, and there were no night lights in the room, so it was pitch-black to see what was going on inside.

Yu Jin first quietly jumped in, then took Jiang Si in, and when his eyes got used to the darkness, he saw a low couch on the right wall with a person lying on it.

The man lay on his side, motionless, as if fast asleep.

Yu Jin listened carefully, his expression changed slightly, pulling Jiang Si to hide behind a row of bookshelves.

The bookshelf was tall, and the staggered grids were filled with books, and it looked more imposing than the study rooms of many learned people.

It is said that this is also the practice of many merchants. Although they do not read books, they must have a large study room full of calligraphy and painting classics.

Jiang Si was a little confused by Yu Jin's sudden action, so he simply took off the hood and asked silently, "What's wrong?"

Yu Jin grabbed Jiang Si's hand and wrote two words in her palm: "I haven't slept yet."

Jiang Si looked in through the gap between the books.

Not long after, the person on the low couch turned over and suddenly sat up.

Because he has adapted to the light, Jiang seems to be able to see the person's appearance clearly.

It was a middle-aged man of about forty years old, with a slightly fat body. He had a kind-hearted appearance and now looked depressed and haggard, and was obviously suffering.

The middle-aged man came to the desk with his shoes staggered, and didn't hold the lamp, he just sat like that, and after a long time he let out a long sigh: "Jiaojiao, where are you, Dad is so worried about you..."

Perhaps it was because there was no one in the middle of the night, the man who had been tormented by the disappearance of his beloved daughter had been suppressed for so long that he began to cry.

A suppressed sobbing sounded in the quiet, dark study.

Jiang Xi and Yu Jin looked at each other.

Yu Jin quickly wrote in her palm, "Action?"

Jiang Shi didn't answer, the hand hanging by his side quietly opened, and the faint fluorescent light flew towards the direction of Master Chi against the ground.

Then she nodded lightly.

"Wait." Yu Jin quickly wrote two words in her palm and quietly walked to the windowsill.

There was a candlestick on the windowsill, and the roots of the half-burned candle were full of tears.

Master Chi sat with his back to the window sill, and was bewildered by Huan Ying but couldn't see anything unusual for the time being.

At this moment, the house suddenly lit up.

Master Chi was immersed in grief, his mind was a little numb, it took a while to react, and suddenly turned around.

There was no one behind him, only the candles in the candlesticks were dancing with flames.

The candlelight was weak, but it clearly illuminated Master Chi's surprised expression.

The door opened with a creak, which was very clear in this silent night, and it felt harsh in Master Chi's ears.

"Who's outside?" Master Chi strode to the door and looked out.

It was empty outside, and the banana leaves swayed gently under the night wind.

In the distance is the constantly moving light, and Master Chi knew that it was the servant of the mansion holding the lantern to catch the thief.

He is safe here, with a night patrol and a few guard dogs. Those little thieves who take risks for a hundred taels of silver will never get on the stage.

"How's it going?" Yu Jin, who went out from the door after lighting the lamp and came in quickly through the window, asked Jiang Si for credit.

Jiang Si pursed his lips, not willing to speak out of conscience, and afraid that the man in front of him who seemed to be flapping his tail would go to heaven, and hurriedly wrote two words in his palm: "Shang Ke."

Master Chi, who didn't find anything, turned around and went back to the house, and suddenly stopped.

Just beside the desk where he sat just now, there was a young girl sitting with her back to her, her slender figure reflected in the candlelight.
