Chapter 84
Mrs. An didn't say anything about An Chongyuan's words, she looked at old man An with mockery.

The old man An was really guilty of being seen, and he stuck his neck and shouted: "What private house, where did the private house come from, don't be silly."

In the eyes of An Zhinan and the others, this appearance was quite guilty.

"I'm too lazy to talk to you," said Mrs. An and walked out with the pork, ready to pack up and make lunch.

As soon as Mrs. An left, Old Man An quickly put down the pipe and whispered to his grandchildren, "Don't listen to your grandma."

An Zhi did not believe Nan'an Yanshu, but An Zhiyan, who knew the inside story, looked at his grandfather meaningfully.

Not to mention the private money that Grandpa Li secretly saved on weekdays, that was five taels of silver that was given to Grandpa by Mr. He before. No one except himself knew about this, so it can be seen that Grandpa's small coffers are full.

Old man An was probably afraid of being nagged again, so after lunch, he called An Zhiyan, An Chongyuan, and went out, saying that he wanted to find out where to recruit workers.

Mrs. An and Chen Jingrong were busy sewing new clothes for An Yanshu at home.

And An Yanshu was reading in the study.

Only An Zhinan was bored in the house, sneaking out for a walk without his family behind his back.

Soon a pretty green figure appeared on the street, a small one, holding candied haws in his left hand and snacks in his right, walking aimlessly.

Suddenly, the little man's eyes lit up, and he strode forward into Youranju.

The little man was An Zhinan, who walked into Youranju following the scent, and was stopped by Xiao Er as soon as he entered the door.

Xiao Er looked about twenty-eight years old, very young, with a perfect smile on his face, wearing a dark gray gown, and a gray handkerchief hanging on his right shoulder.

Xiao Er stood in front of An Zhinan and said very politely: "May I ask if the guest is staying at the hotel or eating?"

An Zhinan didn't show any timidity, and said calmly, "Is there a private room? I'm hungry."

Xiao Er looked at the things in An Zhinan's left and right hands strangely, and smiled slightly: "It's the first time for the guest officer to come to our leisurely residence. The private rooms of our shop are not open to the public. Only regular customers can enter. The window seat in the lobby It’s also pretty good, and it just so happens that there’s still a vacant seat.”

An Zhinan really didn't know there was such a saying about Leisurely Residence, and he wanted a private room to avoid being disturbed. He had just looked at this restaurant carefully when Xiao Er introduced it, especially the location by the window. Head agrees.

Xiao Er's smile was even brighter, and she didn't see An Zhinan clearly just because of her age.

There are many guests coming and going to Youranju every day, whether they are high-ranking officials or wealthy households, if you accidentally offend someone and lose your job, it is a small matter, and losing your life is a disaster.

Under Xiao Er's lead, An Zhinan sat down by the window, took the menus handed over by Xiao Er and looked at them one by one, his face was calm but his heart was overwhelmed.

A restaurant in Fucheng is so expensive, and the simplest material costs two hundred coins, so why not grab it.

If it was really a meal, it would cost at least a few taels of silver.

Now An Zhinan finally understands why this Youran House doesn't open the private rooms to the public, and the people who come here to eat are either rich or expensive.

Reluctantly ordered a vegetarian dish and a meat dish, and ordered a pot of tea.

Looking at the people eating in twos and threes around him, An Zhinan pricked up his ears.

It is said that the restaurant is the most comprehensive place to inquire about information, and An Zhinan came here on purpose for this reason, otherwise, he ate a tael of silver for a meal, which is really heartbreaking.

Although there are hundreds of taels of silver in the space, it is not easy to come by. It must be used for meaningful things.

The food in Youranju was served quickly, and An Zhinan didn't have to wait too long. The delicious food made An Zhinan's heartache a little less.

While eating the meal, he listened to other people's discussions with his ears pricked up.

"Hey, have you guys heard that the city is going to be in chaos again recently?"

"Ah? No way, you can't say such things indiscriminately. Be careful not to be caught saying that you are alarmist."

"Why don't I just talk to you in private? I heard that the higher-ups will send people to investigate the case, saying that it is some kind of corruption. Haven't you noticed that there are more and more people patrolling the city recently? The county master can't see him all day long." Man, my great uncle works at the county lord's mansion, and I heard that the county lord is transferring private property recently, so I'm afraid that something will be checked."

"No way, the county lord is very fair and strict, how could he be corrupt."

"Even if you scholars are full of books all day long, how many innocent people can sit in the position of the county lord? Even if he is innocent, someone will let him get along with you. You guys are so naive. .”

An Zhinan heard it in his ears, and couldn't help nodding his head. That man made a lot of sense. Didn't he have a very general sentence? If the world is full of turbidity, then innocence becomes a crime, especially for high-ranking officials and dignitaries. And can be alone.

Just when An Zhinan rolled his eyes and wanted to continue listening, he suddenly saw a green figure in a hurry passing by the door.

Now that An Zhinan was still in the mood to listen to gossip, he quickly put a tael of silver on the table and got up to chase after him.

That blue shadow was not someone else's official Xingyi, An Zhinan was also surprised to see it here.

Maybe Xing Yi was in a hurry and didn't notice An Zhinan who was not far behind him, or maybe An Zhinan was taught by Xing Yi since he was a child, so he was very talented in martial arts and was not found.

What neither of them noticed was that the person on the second floor of Leisurely House was looking closely at their figures.

The man in black didn't look away, but whispered: "Jinghong, follow up, see what that girl is doing with Xingyi, and clean it up if necessary."

"Yes."

From the beginning to the end, only the answer was heard but no one was seen.

Neither An Zhinan nor Xing Yi knew that the tail was behind him, An Zhinan focused on chasing Xing Yi.

Xingyi stopped suddenly, looked around, turned around and jumped into a house, and disappeared.

An Zhinan didn't think too much, he climbed over the wall and carefully hid himself in the big tree beside the wall.

In the courtyard, Xingyi knelt respectfully in front of a young man. Because his voice was too low, An Zhinan didn't hear him. Just when An Zhinan wanted to take a step closer, he suddenly felt a pain in his waist, and he jumped out of the tree defenselessly. He fell into the courtyard, startling the young man and Xingyi.

An Zhinan was lying sprawled on the ground with his whole face buried in the soil, and when he was about to raise his head, someone kicked him against him, making him unable to move.

"Jinghong? Why are you here? Where's your master?"

Surprised and expressionless, he put one foot on An Zhinan's head and cupped his hands towards Xingyi and the young man: "Eldest son, elder brother Xing, the master is living in leisurely, and found that this man followed elder brother Xing all the way, and ordered me to Come to clean up, I suspect that this person has ulterior motives, let me drag her down and deal with it."

Xingyi and the young man looked at each other, with a heavy expression on their faces, then Xingyi nodded: "She looks like a girl, Jinghong, be quick when you do it."

"Yes."

 An Zhinan: No, err, the Lun family is a good bank~
