Pretending to be jealous in the arms of Dali Temple

Chapter 43

Day two.

The morning mist has not cleared, Wan Yan happily opened her eyes.

happy.

Happy from the heart.

This is free air.

It tastes so sweet.

Wan Yan rolled several times on the bed.

I also stared out the window for a while.

Thinking of the ever-burning lantern she enshrined in Hengshan Temple a few days ago, Wan Yan felt a little grateful in her heart.

Dad, you must be the spirit in heaven to protect your daughter. I am fine now, don't worry.

Wan Yan was immersed in excitement, Aunt Tian's voice sounded outside the window: "Miss Wanyan, Miss Wanyan!"

"Aunt Tian?!"

When the two met, they were very cordial.

"Why is Aunt Tian here?"

"Master Su asked me to come over and deliver some daily things to the girl. No, I brought the girl's clothes and jewelry here."

Wan Yan looked at the seven or eight packages behind Aunt Tian, ​​and was very shocked: "Did Mom not stop you with so many things?"

Aunt Tian smiled and lowered her voice: "The girl is clean and tidy every day, and she puts her things in order. I know that the jewelry is in the closet box, and Miao Tuotou took it out by herself."

Wan Yan couldn't believe it: "This is... stealing...?"

The following words were interrupted by Aunt Tian: "Master Su said that there are many dreams in the night, and he is afraid that my mother will play tricks, so I locked up your things."

Wan Yan never imagined that Miao Hong could do such a thing, let alone that the adults were so meticulous and arranged so well.

"I went over secretly to pack the clothes. Mr. Su said that you don't need to take too much, for fear of being suspicious."

Wan Yan was moved.

Aunt Tian was very excited: "Girl, are you leaving the Jiaofang Division now?"

"Forget it, Mr. Su only said to let me live in the mansion with peace of mind, and he will arrange everything."

"That's great, that's great, but the girl doesn't need to reveal it first, and my mother doesn't want to, but she can't come to snatch you when you are in the government office."

Wan Yan nodded, she had considered everything Aunt Tian said.

"The Jiaofang Division's room is still the same as before. My lord said to keep it as it is, so as not to be suspicious. Master Su told my mother that you will go back in ten days."

"Well, I won't tell anyone."

"Girl, there is one more thing. Mr. Su asked me what I meant, and wanted me to come to the mansion to take care of the girl, you see...?"

Wan Yan happily held Aunt Tian's hand, with tears in her eyes: "Really? That's great."

Aunt Tian wiped the wet corners of her eyes and smiled kindly: "Also, my lord asked my family to come to the government office to do patrol. We really took advantage of the girl. Aunt Tian is here to say thank you."

"No, no, Aunt Tian, ​​thanks to you for taking care of me these two years, I should thank you."

Aunt Tian held Wan Yan's hand, and the rough calluses on her palm pressed Wan Yan's softness, and the little girl felt sad for a while.

"I said earlier that the girl has a kind heart and a gentle temperament. She will definitely have a good home. Now I am so happy to see that the girl is by Mr. Su's side."

Aunt Tian revealed her true feelings, and Wan Yan also shed tears.

"My family's Lao Tian was seriously ill back then. If the girl hadn't helped, where would I have money to see him? Now the two of us have received the girl's great favor."

"Aunt Tian, ​​you are serious. My mother left early, and my father left too. If I hadn't been helped by Aunt Tian in Jiaofang Division, how could I be where I am today? We don't need to talk about the past, and we can do better in the future." It's really good."

"Yes, what the girl said is right, then we will arrange it like this. I will help you keep an eye on your mother in the Jiaofang Division first. After you leave the Jiaofang Division completely, Aunt Tian will come to take care of you."

After Aunt Tian left, Wan Yan took a while to calm down.

Everything the adults did made the little girl's heart fluctuate.

time.

Wan Yan was still packing her clothes, when Su Jizhi's voice sounded at the gate of the courtyard: "Miss Wan Yan?"

"Hey, here we come!" Wan Yan replied crisply, and ran out of the room in three steps.

The adults stood in the morning light with a food box in their hands.

The halo of summer scattered on his body, his waist was handsome, his eyebrows were straight, and his eyes were soft.

Wan Yan smiled: "My lord!"

They haven't seen each other for six hours, and there is an undercurrent between the two of them.

"Well, I went to the kitchen to get some breakfast. In the next day, you and I will have breakfast together. Just tell the kitchen what you like."

"Yes, my lord."

Wan Yan has a fever in her ears. From now on, she will eat three meals a day for four seasons, and from winter to spring, can she stay in the government office and watch the old locust tree bloom and fall in the courtyard?

"What if... nothing? Eat?" Su Jizhi turned away his sharp edge, Wan Yan felt that the adults seemed a little nervous?
Walking beside the lord, Wan Yan secretly looked at the lord's side face, such a scene happened before, but every time the mood was different.

Wan Yan likes the feeling now.

Close and warm.

Let her have a long-lost warmth of being cared for.

"My lord, I met Aunt Tian just now, thank you for everything you have done."

The lord didn't speak, but the slightly raised corners of his mouth were the answer.

"You don't have to worry about Jiaofangsi, just stay here with peace of mind." After walking for a while, Su Jizhi told Wan Yan worriedly.

"Don't worry, Wanyan has an adult, and everything will be arranged by the adult."

The pagoda tree flowers in Tongshan government office are fragrant, and the sun is shining brightly this season.

Walking side by side on the road, the shadows of the two were stretched very long.

Like this long life, from now on all the way hand in hand.

time.

Sitting in the carriage, Wan Yan still couldn't believe that the adults took her to investigate the case.

Seeing that Wanyan was confused, Su Jizhi explained: "Niuzhuang has not been peaceful recently. Lizheng has come to me many times, saying that the village is haunted. He said that the well at the entrance of the village has an unpleasant smell and cries when it rains. , I want to take Miss Wanyan over there to have a look."

Wan Yan was stunned for a moment, remembering that the day she went to Hengshan Temple with her sisters, she heard these words from the pilgrims.

"Crying in the rain? It's so puzzling."

Wan Yan specially changed into a dark royal blue dress today, which is dignified and elegant. Unlike in Jiaofang Division, she simply pulled her hair down on her shoulders.

If she used to be bony and weak, she is charming and handsome today.

Su Jizhi glanced at her and then looked away, "Yes, I never believe in ghosts and gods, they are just tricks."

"My lord, Qian Xi'er and Guo Wanfu are both from Niuzhuang, why don't they live in the village?"

"There are some fishermen who make a living by the Canglan River. After a long time, the shacks are connected together, and it looks like a village. In fact, they all come from different villages."

"There is no information from Guo Wanfu?"

"It won't be that easy. There are two possibilities now. One is that Guo Wanfu has escaped. If he leaves by boat, we will find it difficult to find him. Another possibility is that he is dead."

Wan Yan recalled what the adults said last night, and asked puzzledly: "What if the murderer is someone else?"

Su Jizhi frowned, "It's very difficult. Many people in the shanty town don't know each other. If the murderer is someone else, the people can't identify strangers, and it will be even more difficult for us to attack."

"Could the murderer be a neighbor?"

Wan Yan was so immersed in her thoughts that she didn't notice the burning light in Su Jizhi's eyes.

"Miao Hong led the yamen servants to focus on visiting the residents there today. Let's investigate first, and we have to wait for the autopsy results."

Wan Yan sighed: "It turns out that investigating the case is so difficult, my lord, you are so amazing."

Su Jizhi: "..."

The compliment came unexpectedly, and he liked it very much.
