I eat wife cake on the fifteenth of every month

Yuan Nai climbed up carefully, sat on the fence, and held on to the wooden ladder, "Man Yi, I will hold on, you come up."

The fence was a bit high, and Yuannai's skirt was long. She lifted up half of it, trying to hold on to the wooden ladder that was half crippled.

It was the first time for Hua Manyi to do such a thing, and she felt a little irritated for a while.

Holding one side of her skirt, she climbed up the wooden ladder, and sat face to face with Yuan Nai. Both of them were flushed, looking at each other closely, but they laughed at the same moment.

The ancestor of the Yuan family was an important minister of a certain dynasty, and the mansion has continued its original appearance, with pavilions, terraces and pavilions, a small lake for enjoying the scenery, surrounded by rockery.Later, in the open Republic of China, Yuan Nai's father demolished the dilapidated main building and built two small western-style buildings instead.

At that time, Yuan Nai was not yet born. At that time, some people said that the mansion built western-style buildings, which were nondescript and corrupted Feng Shui. Sooner or later, something would happen!

But her father didn't listen, and resolutely built it. Later, when she was 16 years old, it was the time when her father's business was the most brilliant, and her reputation shocked one party.

Those voices talking about Feng Shui gradually disappeared until two years later...

Thinking of this news, Yuan Nai felt a sharp pain in his heart. Is this really destined to have this fate?

"What's the matter? Yuan Nai?" Hua Manyi pushed open a door that was covered with dust, and looked back at Yuan Nai's uneasy expression, her thoughts moved slightly, and she took her into her arms to comfort her, "It's all over, don't Sad."

They are just two ordinary weak girls now, it's enough to feel sad for a while, but if you think about it, it will hurt your mind and it's not worth it.

"What if..." Both our Yuanhua family were framed?

Yuan Nai looked at Hua Manyi, and swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

"What if?" Hua Manyi asked.

Yuan Nai shook his head, "It's nothing, let's go in and have a look."

Hua Manyi nodded, and pulled people in.This is Yuannai's room, under the dignified and atmospheric decoration, there are decorations that girls should have.

A tea table for taking a nap or reading at noon, a delicately woven oval carpet, a small gramophone, a half-person-high bookcase, a few expensive oil paintings hanging on the wall, and even the small satchel that Yuan Nai used to carry when he went to junior high school is still there.

There is a photo frame on the dressing table, inside is 16-year-old Moto Nai, with two big braids, and a student uniform with blue top and black bottom. But it can't stop the agility and beauty.

Hua Manyi picked it up, wiped off the dust on it, looked at Yuan Nai inside, and smiled bluntly, "You looked thin back then, but your face was chubby."

Yuan Nai glanced at her, who hasn't had a past?

No longer caring about Hua Manyi, Yuan Nai looked around the room bit by bit, looking at the familiar corners and corners, feeling complicated.

After a while, Hua Manyi was still reminiscing about Yuan Nai's baby fat, and when she realized it, she was the only one left in the room?

"..." Don't do this, I'm afraid.

"Yuannai? Where are you?" Hua Manyi walked out of the room and looked around the empty corridor. Even though the surroundings were bright and it was still broad daylight, she was still frightened behind her back.

Finally, I finally found Yuan Nai in the study, and I was relieved. Hua Manyi approached her, "You didn't say anything when you left, huh? What are you looking for?"

Yuan Nai in front of him was flipping through the documents on the desk, as if he was looking for something.

Yuan Nai didn't look up, just looked for one drawer after another, frowning slightly, "Man Yi, I want to find out if there are any documents about my father's transactions back then."

There are some things that she has to check to know whether what the man said is true or not.

"Documents? What are you going to do with them?"

Yuan Nai stopped what she was doing, looked at Hua Manyi across the table, and bit her lip, "Manyi, someone told me that I was framed for what happened back then."

"Framed?"

Hua Manyi's face turned serious, "Is what you said true?"

Yuan Nai shook his head, "I don't know

Is it true or not, but I want to do my best to find out, if it is true that my parents did something wrong... I also admit it. "

If the Yuanhua family were really framed by someone back then, then she would have to seek justice in her death.

Hua Manyi frowned, thinking, "Wait, you said someone told you? Who is that person?"

"It's... Zhou Bosheng."

Yuan Nai hesitated for a moment, but chose to say it out, Hua Manyi is not an outsider, and she only has one friend, so it's better to think of one more person than to be bored by yourself.

"Zhou Bosheng?" Hua Manyi chewed the name over and over again, "This name sounds familiar, is he a classmate from our middle school?"

Before Yuan Nai nodded, Hua Manyi had an impression of the gentleman's youthful appearance, and blurted out, "Isn't that the boy who was always courting you back then?"

"..."

"What is this person trying to figure out? Figured you out?" The more Hua Manyi thought about it, the more likely it was.

"He told you a few words and you believed it?"

"No, Manyi," Yuan Nai took out a piece of jade from his bosom, "Look, he gave me this piece of jade."

Hua Manyi took it, and looked at Yuan Nai even more incomprehensibly, "He bought you with a piece of jade?"

"Manyi!" Yuan Nai was slightly annoyed, "Take a closer look at this piece of jade first."

"What's so good about this jade—"

Hua Manyi took a closer look, and the word "Yuan" on it suddenly appeared in front of her, blocking all her doubts, "This is your father's? How could it be in his hands?"

Few people would engrave their own surnames on jade, not to mention hollow out double-sided engraving. The word "Yuan" on it is in Xiaozhuan script. Hollow engraving is very beautiful, but this does not increase its value.Ordinary jade collectors usually carve mountains, rivers, lakes, or strange flowers, birds and animals, which can improve the appreciation, and it is also quite face-saving to gift to others or buy and sell.

As for this kind of jade engraved with a surname...

Yuan Nai's ancestors were important ministers of a certain dynasty, so it is not surprising that there is such a jade that symbolizes status, but even so, it is impossible for Uncle Yuan to give or buy jade with his surname engraved on it, that would be disrespectful to the ancestors.

Zhou Bo was born a junior, no, the Zhou family, a family that has little relationship with the Yuan family, has jade from the Yuan family... This is worth pondering.

"He said that he saw this jade at Song's house, and someone made a piece of it. This piece is not real." Yuan Nai added.

"..." Huamani looked at Yuan Nai at a loss for words, and Yuan Nai smiled when she saw her like this, took the jade and turned it to the bottom, "The real jade will have a tiny totem on the bottom, which is a jade craftsman uses It was carved with a tricky technique, which is said to have been lost."

The way to distinguish this was what her father told her back then.

Hua Manyi leaned against the edge of the table, thinking, "Could it be that what Zhou Bosheng said is true? There is a problem with the Song family?"

Yuan Nai was rarely entangled, "I don't know if what he said is true, but someone tore a hole in the case back then, no matter what his purpose was, Manyi... I want to find out, I can't let me Parents died inexplicably."

Hua Manyi nodded, "I'll help you."

"Let's talk about it first, Yuan Nai, this is just a guess. It has been so long since what happened back then, and what we can find out may only be superficial, or we are just a verification of what happened back then. The fact... probably is like that son."

"I know, we're just asking for proof and peace of mind. Manyi, don't worry, I won't do anything paranoid or crazy."

The two rummaged through the study for a long time, one through the bookcase, the other through the desk drawer, taking out stacks of documents one by one.

Until sunset, the two huddled together on a big chair to rest.

Yuan Nai held his stomach reservedly, "I'm a little hungry."

Huaman leaned on her shoulder and sighed, "Me too."

The twilight outside spread into the study, and some corners were dark and dull.

"Take a break first." Hua said.

"Okay." Yuan agreed.

Neither of them spoke, they were very quiet, so quiet that they could only hear each other's breathing.

"Yuannai, have you ever done it..." Hua Manyi recalled the abnormality in her body this morning, glanced at the ceiling, swallowed, "That kind of dream?"

Yuan Nai couldn't catch her train of thought for a moment, "What kind?"

"...It's nothing." Hua Manyi's nerves tensed, and for some reason she suddenly didn't want to ask any more questions.

"Alright then." Yuan Nai didn't force it.

Hua Manyi looked at the sky that was about to darken, "Why don't you go back first? It's impossible for us to find it in half a day, right?"

"Okay, come back another day."

The two went downstairs happily, ready to return the same way.

After passing a small barren lake, a layer of ice has formed on it, but it is not thick. You can vaguely see the muddy water under the ice surface, and some withered lotus stalks and leaves.

Suddenly, Hua Manyi stopped, grabbed Yuan Nai, and glanced at Xiaohu, "Yuan Nai, did you hear anything?"

Yuan Nai followed her gaze, "No."

Hua Manyi pursed her lips, and listened carefully, only the sound of the wind blowing, and their footprints spread on the snow, "That may be because I heard it wrong."

The two climbed up the wall in the same way, and both sat on it, preparing to turn the wooden ladder from the inside to the outside of the wall.

"Let's hurry up, it's getting dark, Manyi."

Yuan Nai bent down and grabbed the corner of the wooden ladder to urge him, raised his eyelids, glanced at the bottom of the wooden ladder, and suddenly met a pair of green eyes.

Suddenly, a chill surged up from the soles of her feet, even if she was dressed up, she still felt cold all over her body at the moment, "Man, Man Manyi, are you a wild dog..."

The sound just now was actually made by wild dogs!

Although Hua Manyi didn't have much feeling for dogs, she was not too blind to tell whether the dog's eyes were fierce or kind at the moment.

"I, I, I know..." She couldn't help but tremble.

She knew that Yuan Nai had a shadow on the dog. In contrast, she should be bolder and try to comfort Yuan Nai beside her, "Yu Nai, don't be afraid... We are on a high wall, it can't come up..."

"Manyi! It's climbed up the ladder!" Yuan Nai cried out, her face paled.

! !

Huaman Yixin raised it abruptly, before she could look at the wild dog, she heard a low cry from beside her ear, she looked over - it was empty!

"Wang!"

Hua Manyi's eyes darkened, bang——

There was the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground behind him, Yuan Nai completely ignored it, lying in the woman's arms in shock, the familiar smell made her feel a little relieved.

The moment she fell backwards, Yue Ji who appeared out of nowhere caught her.

First time thanks for her incomparably timely presence.

"What are you doing up there with her?" Yue Ji glanced at Hua Manyi, who fell to the ground not far away, with an uneasy expression, and then looked at the little woman with pale eyes.

Do they stay together all day?

Thinking of this guess, Yue Ji's eyes darkened.

Did they do something behind their backs?

"Yuan Nai..." Hua Manyi groaned in pain on the snow, Yuan Nai finally realized what the noise was just now, and ran to Hua Manyi from her arms without even looking at Yue Ji.

Feeling guilty, he helped her up with difficulty, "Man Yi, how are you? Are you okay?"

"It's okay, fortunately Xuehou..." Hua Manyi stood up with Yuan Nai's support, "I was almost scared to death by that dog just now."

Yuan Nai was patting the snow off her body, and nodded frightenedly.

"Yuan Nai..." Hua Manyi noticed the strange woman beside her, and whispered in Yuan Nai's ear, "Is she the Countess?"

It doesn't look too easy to mess with. A woman has become an earl. Compared with the women she has seen, her aura is really different.

And this foreign woman is too good-looking, her bones are well proportioned, she looks grand, and she seems to have oriental blood when she looks closely.

Yuan Nai followed her gaze, and accidentally met Shangyue Ji's heavy gaze, she quickly retracted it, and nodded slightly, "Yes."

Hua Manyi turned her head and pressed her mouth to Yuan Nai's ear, "Then is she easy to provoke? Will she talk?"

She had heard more or less about the Countess, but others were either curious or inexplicably terrified.

Just like the emperor in person in ancient times.

"Manyi..." Yuan Nai hesitated for a while, then whispered, "I don't know if she is easy to provoke or talk to, but she treats me very well..."

Hua Manyi: "..." What kind of answer is this?

She looked at Yuan Nai, who had a look of "that's the truth", which made it hard for her to say anything.

"Manyi, is that Gong Mama at the intersection?" Yuan Nai suddenly called out.

"Mother Gong? How is that possible?" Hua Manyi didn't quite believe her words, but she still looked over.

At the intersection, a black car came into view, the back seat of the car was rolled down, and who was sitting in it?

Hua Manyi's eyes widened a little, and she said in disbelief, "It's really Mama Gong...how could she come here?"

"She motioned for you to pass," Yuan Nai grabbed her shoulder and reminded her, "It's getting dark, let's stop here today."

"Then you..." Hua Manyi looked at Yuan Nai, and then at the countess with a gloomy face.

"I'll go back with her later."

"I'm leaving?"

Yuan Nai gave her a positive look, "Let's go, let's make an appointment another day."

Hua Manyi got into the car with a few gift boxes from her, only Yue Ji and her were left in the secluded alley.

It started to snow in the wind, falling mistyly from the sky, Yuan Nai picked up the few bags she bought, walked to Yue Ji, and whispered, "Let's go back."

After waiting for a long time, she didn't get a response, so she couldn't help but raised her head, only to see Yue Ji looking at the intersection with a blank expression.

She looked hesitantly along her line of sight, Hua Manyi just got into the car over there, and Gong Ma was smoking a cigarette in the window.

Suddenly, Gong Ma looked over, her eyes were calm, Yuan Nai was so reserved that she didn't know whether to say hello or not.

After all, this is someone Manyi knows. Yuan Nai was about to speak, but found that the other party was not looking at him at all.

She looked up at the woman beside her, only to see Yue Ji looking at the intersection with a calm expression, and snorted coldly.

Yuan Nai: "..."

Had they exchanged something she didn't know?
