Chapter 4 Fire

"Rong'er has been begging me for a long time. I'm afraid that she will be young and no one will guarantee her if something happens. You have always been steady, so if you have time, take them to play."

As expected.

Chen Yuanzhi curled her lips with a smile. She did not accept the post immediately. Obviously, she did not want to attend the banquet, and she did not want to take Chen Rongzhi to the banquet.

If her second sister was peaceful and unmoved tonight, she would have no trouble. She was too anxious and stood up in front of others, full of scheming and scheming, extremely stupid.

"Grandma, you know that Yuan'er has never loved these banquets." This was a tactful refusal.

Yu expected that she would say this, and he knew that the two were far less intimate than the ones that were said outside. However, most of the people who went to the idle banquet were the best in the capital, so it would be better to let the girl's family go out to see the world. If you really meet someone you like, the Duke's Mansion would have a clear idea. If you meet again in the future, you can pay attention to it and discuss the marriage.

At present, the nanny has not taken back the post, and Yu also supports her forehead with her hands tired.

Suddenly, she sighed, but she accepted it.

After Yu stopped, Chen Yuanzhicai and Yinli returned to his house.

When Wanju saw her and the other two come back, she hurriedly helped her into the house. She heard Yinli talk about the banquet. Wanju was careful, fearing that her girl would feel unhappy, so she specially put some comfortable mint leaves in the house.

When I opened the window, the evening breeze swept the fragrance of mint leaves, which was refreshing and cool, and I was really satisfied.

"Miss Second Girl is really too bullying." Yin Li took out three posts from Xianfeng Banquet from her cuffs, and handed them to Wan Ju, while angrily:

"In order to go to this leisure banquet, I asked to go to the old lady."

First, there were eight treasures of jade chrysanthemum hairpin, then the Qingfeng Banquet. Tonight's incident was awful.

Wanju brought a basin of clear water, soaked the veil, and gently wiped off Chen Yuanzhi's makeup. Once the makeup was gone, his skin was as bright as the silver snow in the twelfth lunar month. A pair of bright autumn eyes, containing thoughts, staring at the shadow in the basin in a daze.

"The old lady loves our girls the most, so she will definitely not teach them to suffer losses." Wanju is more calmer than Yinli, and she will be most relieved. Her words brought Chen Yuanzhi back to her mood.

She knew that Yu treated her well and would never doubt Yu's intentions. She was just thinking, how could this eight-treasure jade hairpin give birth to a second branch?

Yinli held a simple gauze dress to change it to her. The gauze dress was as thin as a cicada's wings, with cuffs tied back and a snow-white wrist.

"I can't remember the girl's smartness." Yin Lishun showed off her long hair that was pressed into her clothes, and her long hair was like a pen and ink, and she achieved it overnight.

"Just remember the apricot blossoms in Ruyizhai and the peas in Yufangzhai are yellow." Wanju reached out and pointed the Yinli's forehead, teasing as if she had figured out her little thoughts.

It is understandable that Yinli didn’t know that the golden silk soft jade pillow was a birthday gift.

Chen Yuanzhi wanted to give this jade pillow as an ordinary thing to Yu. She did not have to give it to her in a few days, so she embroidered it slowly. She embroidered the word "安" on the front, and before the needle fell on the back, this happened at the birthday party. In helplessness, she had to move out half of the embroidered jade pillow to solve the urgent problem.

Chen Yuanzhi's slender fingers hit the table, which looked particularly crisp in the quiet room. Wanju and Yinli no longer bothered her, and only tidyed the bedding behind a four-fold silk screen. After serving for a long time, they naturally knew Chen Yuanzhi's little habits.

When her girl was pretending to be in her heart, she used to knocking on the table.

The candlelight was lit, and it was slender and dimmed again, shining on the little face full of worries, repeating this until Chen Yuanzhi stopped the movements in his hand.

"Wanju." There were only three of them in the house, so quiet that even the sound of a copper coin falling to the ground was clearly heard.

But Chen Yuanzhi deliberately raised his voice. She threw the post on the table without saying a word, and said resolutely: "Take these three posts to burn."

Wanju was slightly surprised. She rarely heard Chen Yuanzhi speak loudly. Even though she had a temper, she still spoke softly, and then pointed out the problem incisively. At this moment, she heard the sound and came out from behind the screen. She thought she was going to see Chen Yuanzhi angry, but she never thought that she raised her thin eyebrows and gently pressed her finger on her lips, indicating that she didn't say anything, and her eyebrows and eyes were full of cuteness.

Wanju didn't understand what this meant, but followed her gaze and looked at the window that was just wide open. Outside, the moon was hanging brightly, and the stone lights were bright. Although it was late at night, you could still see the mottled shadows of the trees on the ground. There was only a shadow on the right, no matter how the shadows of the trees swayed, it still stood still and did not move.

"I don't want to go to the Yifeng Banquet, and I don't want to take them there."

After Chen Yuanzhicai finished speaking, his shadow moved suddenly, then gradually moved, and finally disappeared.

Wanju went to look out her head, and everything outside the window was silent, and she didn't even see her figure.

"Girl, this is too bold. I heard that our yard is coming from the base of the wall." Yin Li also came out from behind the screen. Seeing the scene just now, she was bulging her face and was so angry that she was so angry.

Wanju closed the window, and although there was anger in her eyes, she was not as verbal as Yinli. She always thought more than Yinli: "Do you need to send someone down to check?"

Anyone with a discerning eye knows the clues. If you really want to investigate it with great fanfare, the people and matters involved will be enough for the Duke's Mansion to have been in trouble for several days.

Chen Yuanzhi put away the post on the desk, his sleeves were covered with wind, and the candlelight on the desk suddenly jumped, and a candle the size of a bean slowly hung on the white candle.

"No need to investigate." She picked up three posts on the case and rubbed the names of guests engraved on the bamboo and wooden slips with her fingertips. Her smile became stronger on her lips: "She will reveal her fox tail, so you can hold this post."

Wanju accepted it and calmed down a little. Her girl was talented and not a bully, but she should not let others bully her.

"I've been tired for a day, so go and rest."

Today, there are many practical things, and the mansion has been scheduling the old lady's birthday. The whole mansion should be exhausted.

Chen Yuanzhi was also a little tired, covered his sleeves and yawned, his eyes suddenly turned red, and his eyes were filled with foggy eyes, which were so charming that they were so charming that they were unremarkable.

Even so, she did not stop.

First, he turned around and took out a wooden box of yellow rosewood from under the bed. A small brass key at his waist turned the keyhole a few times, making a clicking sound. When he opened the box, he saw that it was filled with silver and money bills.

Chen Yuanzhi sat cross-legged on the bed with his legs, his eyes curled up to pour out the money from his money bag, and his pair of soft and slender hands counted the amount of money one by one.

She put out a small portion of silver and placed it on one side, and put the rest into a small wooden box.

This small portion of silver was used to buy wine for Lin Shen, and she agreed to him two jars of wine in the daytime.

"Forget it." Chen Yuanzhi stared at the small amount of silver and murmured in a low voice: "It's better to move two cauldrons from the mansion."

She raised her fingers, twisted up the small pieces of silver one by one, carefully put them into the small wooden box, and secretly hid the wooden box under the wooden board.

Finally, I patted the wooden board gently, and then I got off the bed with satisfaction.

Standing next to the bed of the shelf is a gold-painted sandalwood cabinet. When she opened the cabinet, the ink fragrance was filled with the words she had finally saved. She held the manuscripts she had saved up on weekdays. She held the manuscripts and walked slowly to the desk, spreading them one by one. Her handwriting was as beautiful as a person, she lay neatly on the thin rice paper.

She moistened her pen, dipped ink on Yantai, slammed the pen tips, and began to copy the few stories that were dirty in Yunlai Restaurant today. Before she could copy a few pages, she heard the footsteps of the stone road outside the house and the sound of the clothes rubbing.

Chen Yuanzhi put down the pen. The ink that was full of the pen had not yet been scraped off, and it was bulging and weak. She gathered her coat and pushed open the door. She saw a group of servants running towards her yard.

The servant looked around and looked around, but before he could find that Chen Yuanzhi was standing outside the threshold.

"What happened? I'm so panicked?" Her house was next to the old lady's yard. The servant was reckless. If she hadn't been stopped by her, she would leave the yard and walk forward, and then she would have arrived at the old lady's residence.

The old lady felt that she could not resist the trouble. If someone accidentally broke into her yard, it would have disturbed her dream.

"Big girl." The servant lifted the wooden barrel in the yard, panting, and speechless.

"Look." He pointed his hand at the southwest of the yard.

"It's the Yunlai Restaurant in Beijing that caught fire."
