When An Zhixian heard this, the smile returned to his face again:
"Before Taifu said that joke, I had never thought about it, so how could I say it with all my heart. Besides, I am not only a businessman, but also a rough man who doesn't know how to show mercy to women. So, Your Highness, if you have a heart, you should act. Don’t let the beauty of being a generous adult come to you just because of brotherly love.”
Chu Chengping breathed a sigh of relief, and then started to worry again:
"Brother An, since the Taifu made this joke, I'm afraid he has some thoughts. The Lin family is not a family that covets wealth and glory. Lin Wanrong is simple and timid, and the royal family is too complicated. The Taifu should look down on me as his grandson-in-law... "
Looking at the prince worried about gains and losses in front of him, An Zhixian couldn't help but laugh. That bright face flashed in his mind, and he suddenly stopped laughing. He lowered his eyes and glanced at the palm of his hand, and immediately felt a sympathization with Chu Chengyi. Feeling of pity.
After staying for another hour, Chu Chengping left Wuyehou. Although he still looked sad when he left, he was much less restless than when he came.
Lin Mansion.
Sister Lin Jinyan bought a bunch of food and went back home, chatting with the old lady. During the conversation, the old lady mentioned that she wanted to bring Zhou Yuexue over.
Lin Jinyan smiled gently: "Grandma, my sister and I are willing to let my cousin live in the house. In the past, it was fine if my cousin didn't come to Kyoto. But now my cousin has moved his family to Tai'an, and the Lantern Festival has not even passed yet. , please bring your cousin here, it’s not in line with etiquette, please bear with me. I will arrange a carriage to pick her up immediately after the first month of the year, without any delay.”
The old lady agreed with a smile and left the two sisters to have dinner before letting Lin Jinyan return to the courtyard.
In the study, Lin Jinyan, who had washed herself, was sitting at the table in her cloak, looking at the accounts in her hands intently.
Bai Zhi: "Sister Agate just brought the ginger soup. I heard that the young lady had changed clothes, so she didn't come in. It was said that before the old lady went to bed, she saw that the weather had gotten a lot colder. She was worried that the two young ladies would be cold after leaving the house today, so she specially I ordered it to be cooked and delivered, and I told you to drink it."
Lin Jinyan glanced at Jiangtang, smiled and sighed:
"Grandma, you are not only kind-hearted and soft-hearted, but also soft-hearted. A kind heart is a good thing, but it will inevitably be taken advantage of by those who have a heart."
Bai Zhi: "Miss, don't worry. Wei Zhong just sent the news that the person with ulterior motives found dead rats all over the yard when he got up early this morning. It's obvious that he wanted to take revenge."
When Lin Jinyan heard this, she became very interested:
"She is about to be raped in the Zhou Mansion. Is there anyone else trying to attack her?"
Bai Zhi: "It's because my cousin was in a bad mood and scared your little cousin. Your little cousin's two brothers were so angry that they couldn't do anything to the cousin, so they made a bunch of mice and disgusted the cousin. "
Seeing Lin Jinyan holding a bowl and drinking soup, Bai Zhi lowered her voice again and whispered a few words into Lin Jinyan's ear.
Lin Jinyan paused after hearing this, then drank the ginger soup and curled her lips with a smile:
"This is a good thing. If you pass the message, you must take good care of the person and make sure nothing goes wrong."
Chuchen pawnshop.
Feng Xiaoran leaned on the chair and rested her legs lazily on another chair. He scanned the sealed letter on the table at a glance.
Fan Tonggui stood beside Feng Xiaoran and took the secret letters that Feng Xiaoran had read one by one. While waiting, he yawned secretly without any trace, glanced at the dining table filled with food and wine, and glanced at the door eagerly from time to time.
After waiting for a long time, he saw a figure moving at the door. Fan Tonggui immediately put on a smile and strode forward to take the man's cloak.
