Jin Yuan grabbed her little hand and suddenly smiled. He said: "It's okay. When I think of these things in the past, I always feel uncomfortable in my heart, but it's different now..."
Before he finished speaking, his eyes lingered ambiguously on her face, and he said: "It may be difficult to go through this world alone, but it will be different if there are people who are on the same journey by your side."
He lowered his head and kissed her lips softly.
"Huan'er, are you willing to go through the ups and downs of this world with me?"
…
Yi Huan woke up from her dream with a hot face and a pair of wet eyes.
Yi Huan couldn't remember how he answered.
Jin Yuan in the dream is so good at confusing people, is that really him? Could it be that it was created by the wild monsters in the mountains? It specializes in seducing people's hearts and minds, and then eats them without leaving any bones or dregs.
Yi Huan turned over and buried his head in the pillow, unable to help but recall the scenes in his dream.
*
Early in the morning, Yi Huan's second uncle, Yi Chengzhang, was about to go to work.
Yi Chengzhang is the deputy envoy of Huangji Temple's funeral ceremony. Lin Qingpei recommended this eighth-grade official to the Ministry of Personnel.
This is really a sinecure job. Although it has no real power, he only needs to recite poems and write articles with others in the temple every day. The second room of the Yi family is extremely satisfied with Lin Qingpei's arrangement.
As soon as Yi Chengzhang left the Yi family's door, someone came from Huangji Temple, a young Taoist boy.
When the Taoist boy saw the second master of the Yi family coming out, he hurriedly stepped forward and said sharply: "Second master Yi, we adults have said that you don't have to go to work today. You have been in office for thirty months. Now that the period has expired, the Ministry of Civil Affairs A new person has been appointed over there, and from now on, you don’t have to come to Huangji Temple again.”
Yi Chengzhang looked as if he had been struck by lightning. He said: "Who said that? I have only been in office for one year, how come I have completed my term? Who are you sir? Is there any misunderstanding in this?"
After losing this job, it will be difficult to find a good job at his age!
The little Taoist boy said: "Then I don't know. Our Lord is General Lin. Anyway, General Lin sent me to inform you about this matter. Now that I have brought the message, I will leave first."
After the little Taoist boy finished speaking, he left the Yi Mansion.
Yi Chengzhang stared, his gray goatee trembling.
When the second aunt Cui saw Yi Chengzhang coming back, she quickly asked: "Why are you back? But is there something left behind?"
Yi Chengzhang was silent for a while, then he sat on the chair and said, "No, I've lost my job. Huangji Temple sent someone to inform me that I don't have to go to work today, and I won't have to go in the future."
Ms. Cui was shocked, "How could this happen?"
"I have only been in office for one year, and I resigned before my term was over. Someone must have done something to me! The Taoist boy said that he was sent by General Lin..."
Cui rolled her eyes and immediately understood what was going on.
Mrs. Cui immediately howled: "It's all Yi Huan's little bitch's fault for insisting on reconciling with General Lin! It's okay now, it's okay now. It angered General Lin, hurt us, and actually asked you to stop the company." All the errands are lost!”
"No, I have to see Qingpei. I am innocent no matter what! How could Qingpei do this!" Yi Chengzhang stood up.
"Okay, okay, go see him and intercede with him. Huh, I'll go to the third room and wait for me! You caused such trouble. Look, I won't teach those little bitches a lesson today!" "
Yi Chengzhang went to Lin's Mansion early in the morning, but Lin's Mansion closed the door and thanked guests.
He and the porter tried to argue, but all they could say was: "The second lady is going to make peace with the second master. You received the benefits from our general's mansion in the past, and you will naturally spit them out today. Do you think those benefits were all for nothing?" ?”
Yi Chengzhang immediately shouted: "Who said we want to reconcile? There is no reconciliation yet? There will never be reconciliation! Qingpei, Qingpei, this is all a misunderstanding!"
at the same time.
The third room, in Cao Yaqin's yard.
Cui rushed in aggressively, while Cao Yaqin was having breakfast.
Without saying a word, Mrs. Cui lifted her table with a clang. She pointed at Cao Yaqin and said, "Look at the sister-in-law you taught. She wants to reconcile, right? She has a good life, but she has to reconcile, right? Now let us Chengzhang’s position has been lost! Will we, the second room, be asked to drink from the northwest wind in the future?”
Cao Yaqin was startled, stood up quickly, and asked, "Second Aunt, what happened?"
Mrs. Cui slapped Cao Yaqin in the face, "You still have the nerve to ask me what happened? Your sister-in-law and General Lin were at odds with each other, and General Lin was not happy either. He took my old man's The position has been removed! You are trying to force our second roommate to death!"
Cao Yaqin's face was burning with pain. She did not dare to fight back and said, "Second aunt, please calm down. Things are not what you think. Huan'er and General Lin have not yet reconciled. Huan'er will return to Lin's house when she thinks about it. "
"Wait until she thinks it over? What about my old man's errand?"
Mrs. Cui pulled her hair and messed up her neat bun. She pointed at Cao Yaqin's face and said, "No matter what, my old man's job cannot be lost. You are going to let Yi Huan do it." Whether it’s pillow wind or kneeling down to beg Lin Qingpei, you must get this job back for me! Otherwise, if you don’t let our second wife have an easy time, Mrs. Cao, I will kill you!”
Ms. Cui pushed her away and asked fiercely: "Did you hear that?"
Cao Yaqin lowered her head and said submissively: "I understand, Second Aunt, I will go and persuade Huan'er, don't worry."
"Hmph! It's all your fault. Who is Lin Qingpei? Wu Zhuangyuan! A third-rank official! A bright future! Where can I find such a good husband? I want to make trouble, I want to make trouble! Now it's better, I'm going to be implicated Our second room is here, are you satisfied?"
"I'm sorry, Second Aunt, I didn't expect it to turn out like this. I will definitely give you an explanation."
Cui left angrily.
Tao Liu hurriedly stepped forward, took a handkerchief soaked in ice water, and skillfully applied it to Cao Yaqin's face.
Cao Yaqin stared at her back blankly, and then punched the ground twice angrily.
With red eyes, she said, "Place my makeup again, I'm going to see Huan'er."

Yi Huan held the porridge bowl and sipped it in small sips. Tao Xin was waiting at the side, and Cao Yaqin came in with Tao Liu.
Yi Huan looked at her and called: "Sister-in-law."
Cao Yaqin walked up to her and said in a stern tone: "Huan'er, do you know how much trouble you have brought to the Yi family by causing this trouble? There is no need to say anything! If you want to make peace, you have to sever all ties with me. I will never agree!"
"You go back to the Lin Mansion today and live a good life with Lin Qingpei. Don't make any more trouble. The Baihualou incident was just a misunderstanding! There is intrigue in the officialdom! General Lin just fell into someone else's scheme! Why should you fight for that moment? Qi!"
