V2.Chapter 11

Yan Ruyu returned to the house in a good mood. After experiencing so many "disasters" in the past two days, the time has finally come to work. There is something very pleasing.

That woman dared to bully the General's mansion because of her kindness to the young master's mansion. She really started a dyeing workshop with a few colors. Now it falls into the hands of the young master Yan, and I don't know how miserable she will die.

"younger sister!"

As soon as Yan Ruyu entered the room, a young man dressed in Huajin strode in, and it was Yan Xie, the young master of the Yan family who had not seen him for a long time.

Since he was repaired by Shangguan Yan, he has been staying in the room, saying that he is recovering from his injuries, but in fact, Mrs. Yan punished him to think about it behind closed doors.

After thinking about it for so long, the wounds are all healed, and the body is getting moldy.

"What makes my sister so happy?" He sat down beside Yan Ruyu, poured a cup of tea, and drank it.

Yan Ruyu said lightly, "How do you know that your eyes are happy to see me?"

Yan Xie put down the cup: "Oh, yes, the Northwest Camp let the Huns take it all in one pot. Dad's life and death are unknown, and mother has this disaster again. If my sister is still happy, it will be too unconscionable."

Yan Ruyu glared at him coldly, wishing to drive him out: "It's so late, what are you doing here with me?"

Yan Xie smiled and said, "There will be a lantern festival tonight, in Qilin Street, why don't you go and have a look?"

Yan Ruyu said in a tone of voice: "Didn't you say that your father's life and death are unknown, and your mother has this misfortune again, so you're not in the mood to enjoy yourself?"

"Cough." Yan Xie's eyes flashed, "I'm not afraid that you will be sad and want to take you out to relax?"

Yan Ruyu said lightly: "Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking, you don't want me to fool your mother for you, go and do it yourself!"

How dare Yan Xie? Let his mother know that he left the house without authorization, and he must be beaten to death.

He grabbed his sister's wrist and begged bitterly: "Aiya, good sister, just promise eldest brother this time. When you were young, eldest brother was the best to you. Your second brother and third brother bullied you. Big brother stand up for you?"

Yan Ruyu pulled back her hand coldly: "This move is useless to me, if you want to get out of the house, think about it yourself!"

She didn't want to fall for this juncture, not to mention, she had other things to do tonight.

Seeing that she could not persuade her sister to live or die, Yan Xie left in disappointment.

...

However, it was said that Yu Wan and Yu Feng were staying in another courtyard, but Yan Jiuchao was inconvenient to stay.

Yu Feng breathed a sigh of relief at his departure. Although Young Master Yan had never done anything to hurt his sister, the rumors about that person were too terrifying. There were so many eyes watching in the village, but this was his own. Site, he really wants to do something, how can he and his sister resist?

After Xiao Nianbao asked for three big kisses by himself, he followed his father back to the house obediently.

The two brothers and sisters were sorting out the medicinal materials in the uncle's room. Besides them, there was a servant named San'er.

The third child was specially assigned by Uncle Wan to serve the uncle. He used to be a pharmacist in Zhang Taiyi's mansion and knew a little about medicine.

Doctor Zhang was one of the two doctors who suddenly came to Baozhitang during the day. The other was Doctor Liang, both of whom were invited by Yan Jiuchao. Yu Wan and Yu Feng didn't know about these things if they paid for it.

There was a lively voice not far away.

Yu Feng pretended to be calm and divided the medicine pack, but couldn't help but glanced out with his eyeballs.

Yu Wan gave him a funny look, and asked the servant on the side, "San'er, what's going on over there?"

San'er replied, "In response to Miss Yu, there is Qilin Street, and there will be a lantern festival tonight."

"The lantern festival." Yu Wan murmured, having been in ancient times for so long, she has never seen the bustling night scene of the capital, "Brother, shall we go and have a look?"

Yu Feng swallowed his saliva and said solemnly, "You go, I'm watching Dad."

Obviously want to go, it seems that the sentence is right, every man has a big boy in his heart.

Yu Wan laughed, looked at San'er and said, "I'll be back soon. Besides, uncle has someone to take care of, he's much better than you and me."

San'er scratched his head hehely: "You can rest assured, I will take good care of Master Yu."

Yu Feng wanted to say something, but he was dragged out of the house by his sister. He was a dignified seven-foot man, but he couldn't get away from a girl's hand.

Walk out of the courtyard, go all the way east, you can see a pond, follow the pond to the right, keep walking, and you will reach Qilin Street.

Qilin Street is full of lanterns, and it seems to have become a colorful ocean. The folk customs of Dazhou are more open than before, and the girls’ homes are not at home. In addition to the romantic and suave sons and brothers, there are also many Yunying unmarried people on the street. Young girls, the daughters of big families are surrounded by servants, wearing veils or hats, and the common people don’t pay attention to it.

"It's so beautiful." Yu Wan sighed at the lanterns on both sides.

"Which one does my sister like?" Yu Feng couldn't bear to watch his sister drool at the lantern.

Yu Wan mentioned a lotus lantern on a stall and said, "Do you want to buy it for me, eldest brother?"

The hawker said immediately, "One hundred cents."

What kind of lamp costs one hundred cents? Yu Feng's hand froze when he went to get the money bag.

Yu Wan couldn't help herself laughing, this iron rooster brother, I really don't know who can pluck a hair out of him.

"Wow! How dare you follow auntie!"

A familiar voice came from the alley beside him.

The two brothers and sisters had a stunned look. After exchanging a look, Yu Wan said in confusion, "It can't be Miss Bai..."

Before he finished speaking, Yu Feng had already flashed away to the alley.

Yu Wan put down the lantern and followed.

The two heard it right, the person in the alley was really Bai Tang, and there was actually a man who appeared in the alley with Bai Tang. From Bai Tang's tone, it was not difficult to hear that she was being followed, and Yu Feng stroked his sleeves. When he got up, he was about to give a lesson to the disciple, but was stunned by the scene in front of him.

I saw the young man in Huafu curled up and fell to the ground. Bai Tang held a wooden stick in his hand and punched and kicked him: "Do you know who the aunt is? Even the aunt dares to follow, I think you don't want to live anymore. !"

"What's the matter, big brother?" Yu Wan came over.

Yu Feng weakly pointed at the disciple who was beaten by Bai Tang so that he could not fight back.

Yu Wan walked over and took a look: "Huh? Why is this person familiar? It seems like I've seen him somewhere."

Isn't this Yan Xie, the former city patrol envoy who took Yu Wan and the three little milk buns into prison? After offending Shangguan Yan, he was decisively fired by Jing Zhaoyin.

Yan Xie was originally a scumbag, and only got a half-official position in Jingzhao Mansion by relying on Shangguanyan's relationship. In fact, she couldn't lift her hands or shoulders. She was addicted to lust, and she liked to tease beautiful girls.

When he saw Yu Wan for the first time, he was also moved, but at that time the new official took office three fires, and he did not dare to mess around.

It was also a coincidence that he messed with Bai Tang. Although the two were neighbors, they had never met each other. How did he know that this charming little girl was the famous Bai Mansion Miss?

Bai Tang beat up Yan Xie so badly that Yu Wan didn't even recognize him as the majestic young master of Yan's house.

"Miss, forgive me, I don't dare anymore!" Yan Xie begged for mercy again and again, he sneaked out of the house alone, without a servant or guard, and there was no one to defend himself when something happened.

Bai Tang bored him again: "If you dare to follow Auntie again, pay attention to your skin! Get out now!"

Yan Xie rolled his ass.

"Why are you here?" Bai Tang dropped her stick, clapped her hands, and looked at the two brothers and sisters who suddenly appeared.

Yu Feng cleared his throat uncomfortably.

Yu Wan curved her lips and said, "Let's go to the lantern festival. My eldest brother heard your voice and thought you had an accident and ran faster than a rabbit."

Yu Feng's heart trembled.

Bai Tang snorted: "What can happen to me? I'll deal with this kind of apprentice!"

Yu Wan smiled: "Miss Bai also came to see the lanterns?"

Bai Tang muttered, "Yeah, it was a disappointment to meet that guy in the end!"

Yu Wan glanced at Yu Feng who was beside her: "We just came here and haven't started watching yet. If Miss Bai doesn't dislike it, let's go together?"

The three of them walked together at the lantern festival on Qilin Street. Bai Tang was born and raised in the capital. He had seen many such lantern festivals, so he didn't find it unusual, but it was also a unique experience to be with friends.

At first, the three of them were walking side by side, and Yu Wan fell behind them little by little, and the two of them didn't even notice.

Yu Wan is angry and funny. Although she did it on purpose and didn't want to make light bulbs for the two of them, isn't it a bit sad to ignore her existence like this?

"Selling lanterns! Freshly tied lanterns! Lotus lanterns, peach lanterns and apricot lanterns, 80 yuan each!"

Yu Wan was attracted by the hawker's shouts. The lanterns in this house were really good, so she decided to buy one for each small milk bag.

When Yu Wan was picking lanterns for the three little milk buns, a scream suddenly came from behind the crowd: "Oh! Someone fell into the water!"

Yu Wan remembered that there was indeed a pond on their way to Qilin Street, and it was not far from the pond.

When Yu Wan arrived, the pond was already surrounded by passers-by, but no one knew the water, but an old man found a bamboo pole and tried to grab the man, but the man sank straight down.

In desperation, Yu Wan couldn't care about the cold water in early spring, so she jumped into the pond and rescued the drowning person, but it was an old man with gray hair.

Yu Wan pressed his chest, and the old man spat out a mouthful of water.

An old aunt said, "I just saw him standing here for a while, so he was looking for a short meeting."

Such an old man is looking for short-term views. He must have encountered bad things and can't think about it. Everyone sympathized with the old man.

Unexpectedly, the old man took a breath and scolded the old aunt: "You are looking for short-term views! Your whole family is looking for short-term views!"

Auntie choked: "You...you...you old thing!"

The old man spat at her: "You are the old one!"

Auntie is so angry!

People just sympathized with him too much and said it casually.

Some people who were still sympathetic to him dispersed in disgust.

This kind of dead old man, love to die where to die!

"I'm hungry." The wet old man said to Yu Wan, he was freezing and his voice was trembling, "I didn't stand still and fell into the water."

Yu Wan: "Oh."

The old man hugged his shivering body tightly, looked at Yu Wan and said, "Is there anything to eat?"

Yu Wan took out a few pieces of crisp candy from her purse, peeled off the candy coating and handed it to him: "Is this okay?"

The old man took the crispy candy and devoured it, leaving none left for Yu Wan: "It's really unpalatable!"

Yu Wan: "..."

you are welcome.

What a weird old man, Yu Wan didn't want to talk to him anymore, got up and left.

"You just left?" The old man stopped Yu Wan.

Am I still responsible for you?

The old man said: "I live not far, you help me go back."

Yu Wan said, "What if I don't help?"

The old man said without hesitation, "I just said that you pushed me into the water."

Yu Wan's face darkened: "...It's wrong for you to touch porcelain like this, old man."

The old man also realized that he was too much for his savior. He took out a purse and poured out a wax-sealed brocade box from the purse. He threw it to Yu Wan and said, "Here you are!"

"What?" Yu Wan peeled off the wax coat and opened it, "Tianshan Snow Lotus?"

The snow lotus that is bigger, fuller, and more fragrant than Baozhitang's, if Baozhitang uses a first-grade snow lotus, the old man gave her is undoubtedly the best snow lotus. Curative!

For Xuelian's sake, Yu Wan decisively picked him up: "Old man, where do you live!"

...

The night was cold as water, and a carriage slowly stopped in front of a quiet mansion.

The curtain was lifted, and Yan Ruyu stepped out of the carriage.

The scarlet house door was tightly closed, she walked up the steps, raised her wrist lightly, and knocked gently on the house door.

crunch--

Not long after, the thick door of the house was opened from the inside, and a young servant stuck his head out, seeing a girl wearing a veil and luxurious clothes, his vigilance dropped a lot, and he asked in confusion: " Is there a problem?"

Yan Ruyu asked gently, "Excuse me, is God Chef Bao there?"

The boy frowned.

Yan Ruyu saw his doubts and explained patiently, "Miss Du told me that Bao Shenchu ​​is here."

The little servant looked slightly stunned.

Yan Ruyu took out Mrs. Du's handwritten note, which was left to her by Mrs. Du before she left. It was the last thing Mrs. Du did for her. From now on, she and Mrs. Du really owed nothing to each other. .

After reading it, the servant returned the note to Yan Ruyu: "It's Mrs. Du's note, but my master is not here."

Yan Ruyu asked, "Then can I wait for his old man here?"

"As you like." The boy said, took his head back, and closed the door.

Yan Ruyu choked.

Lizhi, who was behind him, complained, "Who is it? Don't you know that you are asking the lady to wait inside?"

Yan Ruyu gave her a cold look: "Don't talk nonsense."

Lizhi bowed his head angrily.

Mrs. Du is so difficult to invite. As Mrs. Du's master, not everyone is qualified to meet her. Of course, she can use the power of the General's Mansion, but once it spreads, it will be disgraceful, and it will be easy to put it into practice.

These people with stunts are often eccentric in temperament and consider themselves lofty, it doesn't matter, she Yan Ruyu has patience.

"Old man, we've walked two streets. Where is your home?"

This sound!

Yan Ruyu's brows twitched, and she turned to look into the night. She saw Yu Wan was soaked all over, supporting a thin old man who was also wet and walking towards him.

Yan Ruyu doubted that she was dazzled.

Wasn't it handled by Young Master Yan? How could it still appear in front of her eyes?

"Yu... Miss Yu?" Yan Ruyu called out tentatively.

Yu Wan raised her head, her eyes lighted, "Yan Ruyu?"

She met this woman twice in one day, isn't she too fateful with this woman?

Yan Ruyu didn't even look at the old man who was being supported by Yu Wan, and said incredulously, "You...you are not..."

"What's wrong with me?" Yu Wan asked knowingly.

Yan Ruyu stopped talking, teased for a while, and then changed the topic: "I can meet you everywhere, but you are really haunted! To be honest, did you hear some news from somewhere and deliberately followed me?"

"I'm following you? Come here?" Yu Wan looked at the desolate street. There were old houses on both sides, and there were hardly many people. She would follow Yan Ruyu to a place like this when she was full.

Yan Ruyu felt that Yu Wan was following her, otherwise it would not be so coincidental: "It's useless for you to follow me, Bao Shenchu ​​won't see you!"

"Master Bao?" Yu Wan touched her chin.

The servant inside the house heard the movement and opened the door again. He stuck his head out to take a look, and immediately opened the door and walked out.

Yan Ruyu thought that he was finally going to welcome her into the room, so she tidied up her clothes proudly, but unexpectedly he passed over him, walked down the steps in three or two steps, walked in front of Yu Wan, and bowed to the old man who was being supported by Yu Wan: "Master ,you are back!"
