Chapter 462 Slaves

"Okay, Mother Wang, don't blame this girl, but Qing'er, you'd better make less suggestions next time and ask the old people around you. Do you understand?" Fang Jinyan was a big shot at fifty, and she was impartial. Although Mother Wang was not very happy, the master said everything, and she couldn't have a sensation in front of the master. She just glanced at Qing'er, and Qing'er quickly nodded and said yes.

After a while, Mother Wang was worried about the girls and servants who were cooking downstairs. Although they brought food along the way just to take care of emergencies like today, now the three people around the lady who can use it on weekdays are not there, so she had to go downstairs to take a look in person.

Fang Jinyan closed her eyes slightly. At this time, she had to wait. There was no other way. She believed that that person would definitely take action today. Thinking of this, a hint of coldness appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Suddenly there was a small sound outside the window. Fang Jinyan opened her eyes slightly and saw Qing'er busy preparing a stove for herself. Yun Duo looked at her, walked to Qing'er and said, "Look at my memory. I just said that I wanted to make a basin of water for the lady to soak my feet. If you go down to tell Mom Wang, you will say that you should boil water downstairs and then put more ginger and Chen Ai in the water. The weather is so cold and there are times of epidemics in this place. Be careful."

Qing'er agreed readily, walked to Fang Jinyan and first wrapped the stove with a veil, then put it in Fang Jinyan's arms, found a thin blanket to cover her legs, and then smiled and blessed her body and retreated.

Yudian walked to the door and listened carefully and made a gesture towards Yunduo. Yunduo then quickly walked to the window. Opened the window, Fang Jinyan got up and handed the stove in her hand to Yunduo, put her hand beside her mouth, and a crisp whistle sounded across the sky. Soon a small thing flew into the room like an arrow and landed on the table. There was a thin subway roll as thick as a chopstick on one leg.

Yun Duo closed the window, Fang Jinyan walked to the fire and stretched out a hand. The little thing jumped obediently to Fang Jinyan's palm, and her blue eyes were spinning around.

Fang Jinyan untied the iron roll and found that the feathers of the flame were a little wet, so she carefully handed it to Yunduo and said, "This little guy should be hungry and thirsty. Please find something for it to eat." After that, he took the iron roll and walked to the chair to pull out a very small note from the iron roll.

“Raindrops.”

After hearing this, the raindrops took out a small gourd from their body and handed it to Fang Jinyan. Fang Jinyan opened the bottle plug and poured out a drop of crystal liquid from the gourd on the paper strip, then placed the paper strip on the fire and swept it gently. After a while, a font appeared on the paper strip.

After reading the note, Fang Jinyan put it in the brazier and burned it. Seeing that her face was not very good, Yudian thought that it must be the one that Fang Jinyan asked the big brother Huaishan to inquire, so he walked up and was about to speak, but he heard a loud noise outside the door, so he quickly went forward and opened a gap slightly, and closed it after a while. He walked to Fang Jinyan and whispered: "Xiaoyan, the guests in the east seem to be back."

Fang Jinyan frowned slightly, and a layer of chillingness fell on her pair of smart and bright eyes. She felt that she was now like a piece of meat on someone else's chopping board at slaughter. She was careful along the way. She had never really believed in anyone except the clouds and raindrops. Now she seemed to be right to do this.

Yun Duo saw Fang Jinyan's expression solemn, and it seemed that the news brought back by Brother Huaishan was not very good. He said, "No matter what kind of news it is, don't we all plan to be the worst?"

Fang Jinyan sighed a long sigh. She stood up and looked at the flames of Xiaomi in the corner. Then she showed a gloomy look. She walked to the door with a smile and went up to see the movement outside the door. She saw seven or eight people coming up from downstairs. The front was dressed in black clothes and black pants, and even the hair bun was covered with a black scarf. Her face was expressionless. Everyone was holding a sword in their hands. The following people were very interesting. Yudian whispered: "Is it because of the dance forest meeting to be held? Why are all monks, Taoists and nuns here?"

Yudian was thinking about Fang Jinyan’s doubts. Logically speaking, Guanyi did not receive ordinary people except officials and their families. These people were obviously not officials. But why did Sun Xian ask these people to live here and give them the best room, and he didn’t even want to live in at first?

Who are these people? Sun Ying said that these people lived here seven or eight days ago. Aren’t they afraid of infection in the epidemic? Could it be... it was sent by the eldest lady? It’s impossible. Fang Jinyan immediately gave up this idea. She knew that there were people following her along the way, but those people were definitely not here to protect themselves.

In the letter, Brother Huaishan had confirmed that the eldest lady had indeed sent someone to follow her, and the family had not been stable recently. The eldest lady took advantage of the excuse to remove two confidants around her. In this weather, the eldest lady just wanted to add fuel to the fire and make her health worse. She even wanted to make her mother's health worse without waiting for her to go back... Thinking of this, Fang Jinyan felt a pain in her heart. No, she must find a way to make Brother Huaishan secretly find someone to treat her mother.

Some steps walked to the door but did not come in, but walked away again. The raindrops closed the door in time. After the steps were far away, after a while, some scattered steps were heard hurriedly towards Fang Jinyan's room.

"Miss Fang, I am Sun Ying." Someone outside the door said.

Fang Jinyan signaled the raindrops to open the door, but Sun Ying was standing outside the door, with Zi Yuan and Yu Zhu behind her. The clothes of the three of them were wet by the rain and snow outside, and they looked very embarrassed.

Fang Jinyan got up and walked to the door, and said to Sun Ying with a smile: "Thank you, Lord Sun, it's dark, the road is slippery, thank you for finding my two girls back."

Sun Yan lowered his head. When he heard Fang Jinyan speak, he raised his head and was stunned by the appearance of the woman in his eyes. He saw that the man was wearing a golden hoop with green blue pins on his head, with pearls of different sizes of rice grains on it, two lilac rice bead earrings on his ears, a small vertical collar jacket with blue silk bright flowers and gold silk on his shoulders, a pure white white fox vest on his shoulders, a lotus-colored Lu silk thread skirt, a black silk tow behind his head, a faint sweep of eyebrows and eyes, a thin and moist skin as soft as warm jade, a soft and greasy mouth, a small cherry mouth is red without being touched, and as delicate as dripping, two strands of hair on his cheeks gently brushing his face with the wind, adding a bit of seductive charm, and the flexibly rotating eyes turn wisely, so flawless and so unbearable.

Yun Duo saw Sun Ying staring at Fang Jinyan so unrestrainedly, and he couldn't help but cough. Sun Ying came to his senses and quickly lowered his head, not daring to look again. He said, "Miss Fang, you need to be polite. This is what the officials should do. Now it has snowed heavily outside and the official road has been blocked and not allowed to pass. You can rest here with peace of mind. Just tell the officials if you need it."

Fang Jinyan seemed to have not seen Sun Ying's rudeness and incompetence before, and said softly: "Then I thank Lord Sun." After that, he glanced at Yun Duo, and Yun Duo knew how to take out a cloth bag from his sleeve and handed it to Sun Ying.

"Mr. Sun has given you a blessing, please accept this wish."

Sun Ying pretended to refuse, so he took it down and walked down. When he walked to the stairs, he staggered and almost fell. Fortunately, he held the stairs in time and stabilized his body.

After Sun Xian left, Yuzhu and Ziyuan entered the door. After closing the door, the two knelt in front of Fang Jinyan.

"I am guilty, and I worry the lady." The two of them said tremblingly.

Fang Jinyan said: "It's better to replace the wet clothes on your body before talking. Don't catch a cold."

The two thanked Fang Jinyan and went into the inner room and hurriedly changed their clothes. At this time, Qing'er came in, holding a tray in her hand, with some exquisite side dishes in it.

"Miss must be hungry." After saying that, he walked to the table with a smile and put down the tray.

Yunduo said: "Didn't you ask you to warm the lady's feet to wash? Why did you bring it to the food?"

Qing'er smiled playfully at Yun Duo and said, "The foot wash water is hot. I think the lady must be hungry. If I soak my feet first, wouldn't it be even more hungry? So... Haha, not only did I ask Mother Wang, but Mother Wang also asked the lady to eat something first. And..." As Qing'er had already set up the dishes and chopsticks, helped Fang Jinyan to the table and sat down. She pouted to the east, and suddenly lowered her voice and said in a low voice: "The tenant in the east is back, and the servants over there are also cooking. She disliked us for being slow and scolded. Mother Wang accompanied her to be careful not to conflict with others. When I went upstairs, I saw a bald and a Taoist priest. Haha, I guess there is no meat in this meal. Listening to the servants over there, it seems that these people are of great origin."

Qing'er kept saying, Fang Jinyan smiled. For some reason, she always felt more casual when she saw this Qing'er. It seemed that this girl was always so happy. Unlike Ziyuan Yuzhu, they were very cautious and never said a word by their side. They were always so careful and served them carefully, but they were less fun. But Qing'er didn't seem to care about how others looked at her, and what they thought was, just like a happy bird, a bird... Thinking of this, Fang Jinyan looked at the place where the flames had eaten before and found that the clouds had hidden it.

When Yun Duo saw Fang Jinyan happy, he also made fun of her and said, "You are talking too much. Be careful that Mother Wang should say you when she sees her."

Qing'er was not afraid. While serving Fang Jinyan, she said, "I'm not afraid of her."

Fang Jinyan's heart moved, slowly chewing the vegetables in her mouth, and whispered: "She is the most caring mother around my mother. How can you not be afraid?"
