Liu Dayong spent two days thoroughly investigating everyone in the mansion.When he got the document in his hand, his face instantly became strange.

It's him!

Liu Dayong was not at peace holding this document that identified the person who saved Ling Que.

The servant who fetched the materials looked at Liu Dayong hesitantly, and asked hesitantly, "My lord...do you want to tell Master Liu?"

Liu Dayong slapped the piece of paper on the table, walked back and forth with his hands behind his back for a while, then raised his head and said to the boy: "You should keep your mouth shut on this matter."

The boy was a little puzzled, but he nodded and walked on.

Liu Dayong walked around the table twice, thinking of Zhou Ping who was carried out and thrown to the graveyard after his death, his eyes flashed fiercely.

People are not killed for their own sake.

If he can't give Liu Quanyong an explanation, then Zhou Ping will be Liu Dayong next!

Thinking of this, Liu Dayong finally became firm in his heart. He glanced at the information on the table, stretched out his hand, turned around and walked out of his room.

At the end of the day, Xiao Jin's face turned dark.

Everything last night seemed like a dream in a mirror that could be broken with a poke, Wen Yelan actually hid from him for a whole day!

Xiao Jin walked to the study again, Mei Xiang who was guarding the door just shook his head at him, the young master still refused to see him.Xiao Jin frowned, and at this moment, Daqing who was talking about Liu Quanyong and Xiao Wu Lingque with Wen Yelan in the study just opened the door and came out.

Before Daqing could react, he was hit by Xiao Jin, and the door of the study behind him was slammed shut.

Mei Xiang and Da Qing looked at each other, and asked at the same time: "Is this young master having a fight with Xiao Jin?"

And Xiao Jin who entered the study stood at the door, staring intently at Wen Yelan who was sitting at the desk reading a book.Wen Yelan slightly raised her eyelids when she heard the sound of closing the door, her eyes paused for a moment on Xiao Jin, and then turned away quickly.

Xiao Jin's face turned even darker.He always had the illusion of being eaten up by Wen Yelan and thrown away.

After Wen Yelan glanced at it lightly, he didn't look at Xiao Jin anymore, and focused all his attention on the notebook in his hand.

Xiao Jin raised the corners of his mouth and showed a sneer, and suppressed all the emotions in his eyes, as if he had changed back to the indifferent businessman when he first came to this dynasty.

"Young Master Wen, Xiao Jin has never been someone who makes things difficult for others, so just pretend that what happened that day never happened."

"Xiao Jin promised you to take the imperial examination, we are still mutually beneficial allies!"

Xiao Jin paused word by word, said a few words slowly, then took a deep look at Wen Yelan, sneered, turned and opened the door to leave.

Mei Xiang stared at Xiao Jin who was leaving, and was stunned.

Xiao Jin seemed to be a different person when he went in and when he came out.

At this moment Xiao Jin, Mei Xiang felt so indifferent that no one could get close.

"Master?"

Mei Xiang looked at Wen Yelan with her head, Wen Yelan lowered her head with an inexplicable expression.

"Close the door, I want to read a book."

Wen Yelan's voice without warmth came, Mei Xiang looked at him with a little worry, and finally closed the door obediently.

As soon as the door was closed, the book in Wen Yelan's hand fell to the table. He clenched his fist and slammed the table hard, making a loud noise in Nuo Da's spacious and quiet study.Mei Xiang, who was guarding the door, looked back at the closed room, and turned her gaze back to the direction where Xiao Jin disappeared.

According to Wen Yelan's instruction, Daqing left the other courtyard of Weifu through the back door, and went secretly to the nearby woods. After waiting for half a stick of incense in the woods, a child's figure slowly appeared.

The thirteen or fourteen-year-old children who ran from a distance were very cute, with baby fat, a bit big head, but a bit short and thin body, wearing clothes of bad fabric.He ran over bouncingly, holding a large bag of things in his hands.

"Where's my candied haws?"

The child ran in front of Daqing, stretched out a dirty left hand, looked at him, and said the first sentence.

Daqing took out a bunch of candied haws from the bag in his hand and handed them over, the child anxiously bit off one, the sour taste instantly made the child wrinkle his cheeks.

"Bah, bah, it's so sour." The child spat out the crumbs, looked up at Daqing and said, "Where's my candied haws?"

Daqing didn't seem to feel any doubt or hesitation, and directly took out a new bunch of candied haws with brighter colors from the bag and handed it over.

Without further ado, the child threw away the candied haws he was holding, took another one anxiously from Daqing, and this time he chewed for a long time, the sweetness in his mouth almost made his eyes narrow up.

"My friend also likes candied haws very much." The child bit the second one and looked at Daqing fixedly.

This time, Daqing took out an old wooden box with an ordinary style from his bag and handed it to the child.After the child finished eating the candied haws in his hand, he threw the wooden box into the innermost part of the big package in his hand, then skipped to the direction he came from without looking at Daqing.

Daqing didn't leave immediately after watching the other party disappear, but stood still and waited for half a stick of incense. At this time, an old lady slowly walked in the direction where the child disappeared.The old lady was covered with white hair, long to her shoulders, loosely scattered, leaning on a wooden crutch with simple carvings, and walked towards Daqing very slowly.

Daqing didn't look at her, and the other party didn't look at Daqing either.

When the old lady walked past Daqing silently, she said a word in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"A branch of red apricot came out of the wall."

Daqing took a deep look at her, but did not respond to her.

The white-haired old lady just said a word, and then disappeared unsteadily.

The third person who came was a beggar, all in tatters and sloppiness, his hair was all messed up, his face was covered with mud, making it hard to see his face clearly.He was holding a wooden bowl with three copper coins on it. He walked like a drunk after drinking, twisting and turning.

He walked to Daqing's side and spent a cup of tea.

"This kind man, please give me some money."

The beggar stretched out the wooden bowl in front of Daqing, shouting the same sentence repeatedly, his hands trembling slightly, and his body tilted from time to time, but the eyes he looked at Daqing were clear and sharp, not like a drunk at all. people.

Daqing took out a bunch of copper coins from his bag and threw them into his wooden bowl, making a slight jingle.

The beggar did not leave, still in the same posture, still repeating that sentence.

Daqing took out an ingot of silver from his bag and put it in his wooden bowl.They repeated this four or five times, until the gaps in the wooden bowl were filled with silver, and the beggar grinned contentedly.

"What a kind person, the old beggar is here to wish you all your wishes come true."

Finally, the beggar uttered an ambiguous sentence, and staggered away with the wooden bowl in his hand.

The bundle in Daqing's hands has been flattened, and there is nothing inside, just a piece of cloth.

Daqing looked at the sun in the sky, then looked down at his own shadow on the ground, murmured a word, walked out of the woods, returned to the other courtyard of Weifu, and went to Wen Yelan's study.

Xiao Jin came out from Wen Yelan's and went to Qu Mo's.Qu Mo is now being taken care of by Mrs. Wei, and Wei Tingyu thinks that the two of them are thick-handed and clumsy, and fears that they will spoil Qu Mo, so he takes over the burden by himself.Wen Yelan and Xiao Jin were worried at first whether this would make Wei Tingyu too tired, but after Wen Guoan's death, Wei Tingyu, a widow, could not leave the yard often, and often stayed in the yard chanting sutras. Thinking that although Qu Mo is young, he is still clever and has a sweet mouth. It would be great to be able to tease Wei Tingyu, and it will also make Wei Tingyu's yard more lively, so in the end he acquiesced.

Xiao Jin walked outside Mrs. Wei's yard but did not go in. Qu Mo happened to be playing alone in the garden. As soon as Xiao Jin appeared, he saw Xiao Jin's figure sharply.Qu Mo didn't shoot the ball anymore, he threw the ball and jumped towards Xiao Jin with a big smile on his face.

Xiao Jin hugged the fatter child in his arms, turned upside down, squeezed his rosy cheeks, and asked, "Where's grandma?"

"Grandma took the medicine and fell asleep." Qu Mo held Xiao Jin's collar tightly, tilted his head, thought carefully, and then slowly answered.

"Why are you alone?" Xiao Jin glanced at the yard, but saw no one else except the two guards.

Qu Mo imitated Xiao Jin's movements and looked up at the place where he was playing just now: "Sister Qingqing give Mo Mo something sweet."

"Heh." Xiao Jin laughed and pinched the child's nose, "You are a snack foodie who likes sweets just like Wen Yelan..."

When Wen Yelan's name was mentioned, Xiao Jin's face froze for a moment, and his expression gradually became cold.

"Daddy?" Qu Mo circled Xiao Jin's neck, tilted his head with wide eyes, "Daddy misses your mother?"

"..." Xiao Jin almost choked on his saliva.

"Daddy made mother angry? Mo Mo took father to apologize to mother." Qu Mo gave Xiao Jin a kiss and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, Daddy, Mo Mo stole a piece of snack before, grandma got angry, and then Mo Mo If Mo apologizes, grandma will not be angry, and if father apologizes, mother will not be angry."

"You kid still ate it secretly..." Xiao Jin was amused by his little adult appearance, and stretched out his hand to pinch his nose again.

Qu Mo covered his nose and shook his head, "Mo Mo is just hungry..."

"Okay, okay." Xiao Jin smiled, rubbed Qu Mo's hair, and said in a low voice, "Your mother is not angry, it's just that Dad thought something wrong."

Thinking about it carefully, what Wen Yelan did was not wrong.He just brought the relationship between the two of them back to the original track.

Allies are still allies, and that should never have changed.
