The green bamboos in the courtyard are still green and tall. Because of the green scenery in Qingqiu Garden, the winter days in Qingqiu Garden are a little less desolate and a little more vibrant.

Han Yan sat on the swing in the courtyard, playing with the rope in his hand. He looked at Ji Lan who came over and said with a smile, "What can you find out?"

Ji Lan said angrily: "Zhou's mother and daughter are so bad. I just went out, and the servants in this house became more and more unruly. They all ran to the David Tong Garden. I don't know what benefits were promised to them in that house." . It’s obvious that Miss is the serious mistress of the house.”

Han Yan smiled, shook his head nonchalantly and said, "When they first entered the mansion, they naturally had to take care of the servants. Don't worry about them. Just help me see in this mansion which ones are sincere and which ones are malicious." I have other thoughts." When he thought of something, his expression changed again: "It's just that I can leave the other courtyards alone, but I have to keep an eye on Qingqiu Garden. Shu Hong Ji Lan, you all pay attention to it on weekdays, Mrs. Zhou thought Looking at the movements in our yard, we have to see if we have the ability."

Ji Lan's eyes widened: "Miss, what are we not going to do?"

"What to do?" Han Yan glanced at her with a smile and stretched out comfortably: "There is no need to do anything, we have to make a good layout."

Shu Hong frowned, seeming to be thinking about Han Yan's words. After a moment, her brows relaxed, and a hint of understanding flashed in her eyes. There was a look of approval on Han Yan's face. Fortunately, her girls were all smart. The lessons from the previous life made her understand that having a sharp ear and eyes was always the way to survive in the cannibal mansion. Ji Lan and Shu Hong are her eyes and ears placed in the yard.

He casually twisted a salted plum and put it in his mouth. Before the sour taste had time to dissipate, he heard Ji Lan say again: "Slave, I heard someone said that Mr. Zhou went to the Songlin Courtyard with a box in his hands."

Han Yan was startled and felt a pain in her mouth. She actually bit her tongue out of desperation. Without any time to think about it, she jumped off the swing with a cold look in her eyes: "They are going to Brother Ming's place." do what!"

Shu Hong was also stunned, and Ji Lan probed: "It must be bad intentions. The young master is now half the master of the house, or are they trying to please?"

"Do you think Brother Ming is half the master of the house?" Han Yan asked Ji Lan.

Ji Lan was stunned for a moment and then heard Han Yan continue: "How could the servants in this mansion ever regard Brother Ming as their master? If the master doesn't like it, what if Brother Ming is a relegated son? To say that the Zhou family fawns over Brother Ming, I But I don’t believe it.” After thinking about it, he clenched his fists and raised his feet to go out: “No, I’m going to take a look.”

Brother Ming is Han Yan's only relative and his mother's heart. After reviving his life, Han Yan's biggest wish in this life is to take good care of Brother Ming and protect him from growing up. Han Yan could still take things calmly in other matters, but Ming Ge'er could not. Seeing the Zhou mother and daughter with ulterior motives approaching Ming Ge'er, she couldn't calm down.

Shu Hong lowered her head and walked to Han Yan's side and said, "Miss, please don't startle the snake."

Han Yan was stunned, Shu Hong held her hand and comforted her: "I will go and inquire now. It is clear day and clear day. The Zhou family will never murder the young master in front of the servants in the house. If there is any mistake, I will fight for it." I will do my best to protect the young master."

Ji Lan also followed: "The young master is very smart. Miss, don't be impatient."

Han Yan looked at the two girls in front of him and slowly calmed down. It's really not the right time to strike a nerve right now. If she rushes to Pine Forest Courtyard so quickly, I'm afraid Zhou will immediately know that there is an informant around her, and it will be much harder to inquire about information there in the future. Besides, what Shu Hong said made sense. Zhou wouldn't be stupid enough to attack Brother Ming in broad daylight. Brother Ming was just a child with no threat to her now. It was because of her recklessness.

Shu Hong looked at Han Yan and said solemnly: "Miss, I trust you."

After a moment, Han Yan nodded: "Go back quickly."

When Zhuang Shiyang returned home, the sun was setting in the west and twilight was closing in.

As soon as I got off the carriage, I saw two girls wearing lotus-colored blouses standing at the door of Zhuang Mansion. One of them was holding a purple and gold carved hand warmer, and the other was holding a silk lantern. Seeing him getting off the carriage, he immediately greeted him.

Zhuang Shiyang took the heater from the girl's hand, and the heat made him sigh comfortably. He looked up at the other girl and felt a little strange, so he asked, "Which courtyard are you from?"

The girl holding the lantern immediately felt blessed and whispered: "To tell the master, the slaves are from the Dove Garden. The master said that it is cold and the road is dark, so he asked the slaves to come out to serve the master."

Zhuang Shiyang was stunned, narrowed his eyes, and said after a moment: "Your master is thoughtful." Then he ordered the servant beside him: "Go to Aunt Mei and let me know that I will not be able to pass today."

The girl next to her was very happy when she heard this, but she didn't dare to show it on her face. She just secretly said in her heart that Aunt Zhou was a good trick, but she was just a softie and left the master in Davitong Garden. I'm afraid the person in Furong Garden will be angry tonight. The cup was thrown.

Zhuang Shiyang walked into Davidia Garden with the two girls. The courtyard was quiet, and the windows of a room in the east wing reflected bright candlelight. A slim shadow sat by the window, and a clear shadow was reflected on the window paper, but it was embroidering with its head lowered, looking serious and gentle.

After waving the two girls to leave, Zhuang Shiyang pushed open the door and walked in. The person at the window seemed not to notice, and was still concentrating on embroidering the picture of hundreds of sons and thousands of grandchildren on the quilt.

Zhuang Shiyang said nothing, standing behind her and watching quietly. At this time, Ms. Zhou was only wearing a plain white tunic with a purple blouse on top. The thin clothes fully showed off her perfect figure. She has a waist and long legs, and her black hair is not tied up with hairpins. It is spread casually around her body, making her lips redder and teeth whiter. Her cheeks are like peach petals soaked in water, which are reddened by the heater on the side. . She has a gentle expression, but has her own style and charm. He held an embroidered quilt with a red bottom in his hand, and his fingers as white as green onions were flying on the silk cloth.

Zhuang Shiyang looked at it and felt like something was crawling through his heart. His jade-like fingers looked limp and weak, and he felt his mouth was dry. However, the woman was sitting upright, completely unaware of her presence. She swallowed her saliva and then hugged the beauty tightly in her arms.

"Oops!" Mrs. Zhou was startled, and the embroidered stretcher in her hand fell to the ground. She turned her head: "Master..." Her lips happened to touch the tip of Zhuang Shiyang's nose. Zhuang Shiyang felt a rush of blood. Today in the courtroom All the unhappiness above mixed with the beautiful scenery in front of him, flowing straight down. He immediately picked up Ms. Zhou and pressed her into the bed regardless of her exclamations.

After a lot of confusion, Zhuang Shiyang breathed a long sigh of relief, lay down on Zhou's body, caressed the woman's bare back with one hand, and kneaded it restlessly with the other.

Mrs. Zhou gave a soft squeak and pushed him with her hand: "Master, why are you acting so recklessly today? If the servants see it..."
