"Master—"
Fu Ling held the broom in her hand and didn't know whether to put it down, but bowed her head and saluted.
Qin Chen strode forward, looking at Qin Wan's master and servant, he was very surprised, "Your master and servant...why..."
Qin Wan glanced quickly over the thin boots on Qin Chen's feet.
Because there are flower fields in the orchid garden, the soil quality is different from other places. If you have been here, you will probably be stained.
But looking at it this way, Qin Chen's shoes are clean.
"Young master, Lanpu is hiding from someone."
Qin Chen's temperament is elegant, and his eyes are very gentle. In Qin's residence, he is one of the few people who can treat Qin Wan's master and servant with kind words. His throat is choked, and he complains a bit of grievance.
"Did you hide someone?" Qin Chen raised his eyebrows and looked around, "How could you hide someone? Did you misread it?"
"No, slave—"
Fu Ling wanted to say more, but Qin Wan nudged Fu Ling with her elbow.
"Just now, Fuling was about to move two pots of orchids into the house, but was startled by the noise. I was worried to come and take a look with her. Maybe...the wind was blowing and she heard it wrong." Qin Wan put the shovel aside, and his demeanor finally settled down. Be dignified and quiet.
"It's really easy to get it wrong at night." With a thin smile on the corner of Qin Chen's lips, he looked at Qin Wan with gentle and friendly eyes, "How dare you two girls come here by yourself? You should call the servants to come with you. "
Qin Wan narrowed her eyes, "Yes, brother is right, but Qin Wan was negligent."
Qin Chen glanced at the orchid garden again, "It's okay, I'll let someone take care of this orchid garden tomorrow, and you usually lock the side door, let's go, come and see the gift I brought you."
It turned out that Qin Chen came to Tinglanyuan to give gifts.
Qin Chen turned and walked in front, Qin Wan and Fu Ling followed.
Besides Qin Chen, Cheng Xin, his personal servant, also came with him.
Chengxin was holding a brocade box in his hand, and when Qin Chen returned, he hurriedly handed it over, Qin Chen took it in his hand, "It's too late, brother won't come in, I wanted to bring it to you tomorrow morning, but I thought you would save it." After Lan'er, I felt uneasy before I could thank you properly."
He opened the brocade box, "This is a set of sapphire hair masks that I bought for Lan'er earlier. Lan'er likes it very much, but has never worn it. You saved Lan'er's mother and child today. This is our kindness."
As soon as the box was opened, a stream of jewels overflowed.
Qin Wan frowned, hesitating for a moment, this gift of thanks is really precious.
Seeing that Qin Wan didn't answer, Qin Chen said again, "Lan'er has already woken up and drank the medicine. She chose it herself. If Ninth Sister doesn't want it, does it mean that she dislikes the gift we chose?"
Qin Wan raised his eyes, and looked at Qin Chen for a moment. The eldest son of the third house of the Qin family had extremely warm eyes, coupled with a warm smile that made people feel like a spring breeze, Qin Wan's vigilant mind relaxed.
Qin Wan took the brocade box, "Thank you, brother."
She is not a good man and a believer, and she is in a difficult situation now, so there is no reason not to accept her.
Qin Chen heaved a sigh of relief, and the smile on his face deepened, "That's good, Lan'er's body must make you worry."
As he spoke, he glanced at the yard again, "I wronged you in the past. From now on, what is missing in this yard, just tell the big brother. Lan'er saw you very rarely in the past. This time you saved her, she said You are calm and composed, and you like you very much, if you are free, go and talk to her more."
Qin Wan didn't answer, just nodded.
Seeing that she was a little cold, Qin Chen hesitated and said, "Ninth Sister, I just heard about your falling into the lake, but no matter how hard I think about it, I can't commit suicide. I will never dare to do this in the future. I heard that you fell into the lake." I got sick once after waking up, how are you recovering now?"
Qin Wan pursed her lips and lowered her eyes slightly, "It's all over, don't worry, big brother."
When Fu Ling heard Qin Chen bring up this matter, her heart felt a little sour, but she said as if she trusted Qin Chen very much, "Young Master, I don't know, the young lady hurt her head after that time, and she can't remember many things in the past."
Qin Chen's eyes showed pity, "Ninth Sister, the mansion used to treat you badly, but from now on, it will treat you well, you..."
"Thank you, brother, for your concern." Qin Wan cut off Qin Chen's words, "It's getting late, brother, please go back."
Qin Chen hesitated to speak, but seeing Qin Wan's lowered head and closed eyes, he knew that she didn't want to mention this matter.
Qin Chen sighed, "That's also good, you guys go and rest, the elder brother will go first."
Then he turned and left.
Watching him turn and leave, Qin Wan's eyes darkened.
"Miss, this is the jewelry from Jinxiufang in the city. Jinxiufang is very famous in the south, not to mention Jinzhou. The jewelry in his family is only made for high-ranking officials and nobles. Ordinary people can't buy it even if they want to buy it."
"This sapphire... the color and texture are of high quality, so it must have cost a lot of money. Miss, the eldest young master is humble and unassuming, and he is also very talented. In the entire Qin family, he is the only one who treats us well."
Qin Wan turned her head, "How to say?"
Fu Ling sighed, "You have forgotten that the eldest young master used to study abroad, but even so, every time he returned home, he would ask someone to send us some silver taels. This is already helping us many times."
No wonder Fu Ling looked very familiar with Qin Chen. Qin Wan glanced in the direction of the courtyard door, and then at the side door.
"Go and lock the side door, it's time for us to rest."
Thinking of the figure just now, Fu Ling didn't dare to be careless, so she hurriedly locked the side door, and when she returned, she said, "Miss, why didn't you let the maidservant finish talking just now, the young master is kind-hearted, he will definitely help us investigate!"
Qin Wan's eyes flashed twice, "I can't find it, it's late at night, and there are all kinds of connections outside Lanyuan, even he, he won't work hard for us."
If it gets too big, they will scare the snake away.
"Who is it? The servant is sure it is a person."
After entering the room and closing the door, Fu Ling was still muttering to herself while waiting for Qin Wan to rest.
Qin Wan lay on the brand new bed, feeling a little restless.
"Fu Ling, you need to be more careful when walking in the Qin Mansion from now on."
Fu Ling was sleeping on a small couch not far away, and when she heard the words "Ah", she seemed to realize that Qin Wan's statement was unusual, and asked with some trepidation, "Miss...do you think that person is malicious to us?"
Not only malice, but perhaps killing intent.
Qin Wan thought so in his heart, but he couldn't tell Fu Ling directly.
"The people in the house have long disliked you and me, so it's better to be cautious."
Fu Ling exhaled, "Miss, is she afraid that we will cause trouble? Don't worry, Miss, this servant knows." After a slight pause, Fu Ling wrapped up the brocade quilt with some fear, "Miss, let's keep an extra lamp for tonight."
The curtain hangs lightly, and Fu Ling vaguely sees the shadow of Qin Wan lying down.
Qin Wan didn't speak, Fu Ling said again, "This servant always thinks of Miss Song Guogong, and I don't know who it is, who can kill Miss Song's family so ruthlessly. How can there be such a poor and vicious person in the world?"
When Fu Ling said this, Qin Wan was also thinking of this weird and terrifying murder case from Miss Jiu's murder.
What kind of person would kill a newlywed in such a cruel way
Thinking about it, it seems that only the devil can be so insane.
However, Qin Wan’s past experience with his father’s exposure to prisons has made Qin Wan clearly understand that devils are just ordinary people, and they are inconspicuous. They face you day and night, and they share meals with you at the same table...
