Chapter 2 Letters
The old lady signaled the woman behind her to come forward and opened the box, and there was a piece of jade inside.

"Wear it with you, I asked for it at Lingguang Temple, and bless my girl Yun'er to be healthy and healthy for the rest of her life."

Rubbing Dai Qingyun's head, he put the Jade Guanyin on her with his own hands.

"Miss Yun'er is very lucky. When the old lady and I went to Lingguang Temple this morning, Master Linghui personally opened the light."

The mother-in-law said to Dai Qingyun with a smile.

Touching Jade Guanyin on his chest, Dai Qingyun thanked the old lady with a smile.

Fortunately, she didn't travel to those patriarchal homes.

"Grandma, I want to go to the yard to get some air."

Dai Qingyun looked out of the window, she hadn't looked at this house well yet.

"Go, Xi'er, take a good look at Miss."

Mrs. Lin gave some instructions, and took her mother-in-law back to her courtyard to worship the Buddha.

Dai Qingyun and Xi'er walked casually, and came to the lotus pond in the inner courtyard again.

"Miss, let's just watch here."

Xi'er pulled Radai Qingyun's sleeve nervously.

Seeing the little girl's nervous appearance, Dai Qingyun didn't want to scare her, and said softly, "I won't go, don't worry."

The two walked around slowly, and they reached the corridor that divided the inner and outer courtyards. They were about to sit down and have a rest.

"Ah, isn't this my little sister?"

A delicate voice came, it turned out to be Dai Qingrong from the second room, and Dai Qingyi from the third room next to her.

"Hmph, it's obvious that some people are not careful, and even made others suffer."

Dai Qingrong pouted and looked at Dai Qingyun with displeased eyes.

Dai Qingyun raised his eyebrows, the original body fell into the water, it must have something to do with these sisters, she vaguely remembered that some hands pushed her.

"I heard that grandpa made several sisters face the wall and think about their mistakes. Why come to the front yard when you have time?"

"I, we are here to deliver things." Dai Qingyi said softly.

"Why are you being so polite to her?" Dai Qingrong pulled Yi'er angrily.

Dai Qingyun looked at the two of them, a little helpless if they were just two little kids.

Looking at the trays in their hands, there were two sets of jade ornaments.

Seeing Dai Qingyun's eyes, Dai Qingrong said uncomfortably, "Those maids are clumsy, what if they break it, Yi'er, let's go, Grandpa is still waiting for it."

After that, the two walked away happily.

Naturally, I am happy not to be locked in the room.

"Is there any guest at home?" Dai Qingyun looked thoughtfully at the backs of the two leaving.

"It seems that a general has come. I saw several people this morning, all of whom were carrying knives. It was scary."

Xi'er thought of the person she saw early in the morning, and shook her body.

General?Dai Qingyun thought about it, and in his memory, there were very few generals who had relations with the Dai family, let alone such visits.

At noon, Dai Qingyun and Li Shi had dinner, and Dai Zhixiao came back with sweat all over his face.

Mrs. Lin has delegated authority to each house for a lot of shops and properties, and the four houses have no official status, so they are naturally busy outside.

"It's noon, why are you back here?"

Mrs. Li wiped Dai Zhixiao's sweat with a handkerchief, and then called the girl to fan her.

After drinking several cups of herbal tea, Dai Zhixiao said with a frown.

"Something is wrong on the street today, and there are several waves of officers and soldiers with knives."

"How come, our Huai'an mansion has been safe and sound for so many years."

Li Shi also frowned, thinking that things might not be simple.

"General Zhenyuan came to the house today, did dad say anything?"

Dai Zhixiao lowered his voice again, "There are rumors outside that there are spies in Huai'an Mansion."

"Not long after the general arrived, he took Dad to the yamen."

Mrs. Li shook her head, and gave Dai Qingyun a piece of food with chopsticks.

"I'm afraid it's not peaceful outside these few days, Yun'er stays at home with your mother."

Dai Zhixiao rubbed Dai Qingyun's head, and said dotingly, "Yun'er has lost a lot of weight these two days, eat more."

Dai Qingyun nodded, the parents were still strangers, so they were not used to such intimacy.

Two days later, Dai Qingyun didn't need to drink medicine at all, and got up full of energy.

"Miss, the old lady said that at noon, let all the rooms go to the hall to have dinner together."

Xi'er helped Dai Qingyun comb her hair, talking about the instructions from the old lady who came from the yard just now.

Looking at the different faces in the bronze mirror, Dai Qingyun was still not used to it, so he pushed away the bronze mirror, took out the hairpin from the makeup box and handed it to Xi'er.

"Well, remember to call me at noon."

Dai Qingyun couldn't go out these few days, so he became obsessed with reading. He said it was reading, but he was actually learning about the information of this era.

The Xuan Dynasty, a dynasty she had never heard of, ruled sixteen prefectures and was quite large. It seemed that the country still had some strength, so there was no need to worry about wars for the time being.

At noon, except for the old man who works in the yamen, all the people in each room have arrived, and there are two tables for men and women. After dinner, the old lady left Dai Qingyun.

"Yun'er has taken care of her well these few days, and her spirit has improved a lot." The old lady held her hand and smiled kindly.

"Thank you grandma for your concern, Yun'er is already healed." Dai Qingyun lowered his head and smiled slightly, imitating what a lady should look like, thinking to himself, alas, I'm so tired.

"Although your grandfather is busy these two days, he still remembers you. You can send this mung bean soup to your grandfather and let him see you."

Mrs. Lin called the maid to bring the food box.

"Okay, then Yun'er will go to find grandpa first, and grandma will have a good rest." Dai Qingyun said and resigned, and left the mansion with her maid.

This is the first time she has seen the real ancient times. The Dai Mansion is located in the prime location of Huai'an Mansion, and the prosperity can be seen.

The officers and soldiers her father mentioned two days ago have disappeared.

After getting on the carriage, I arrived at the Huai'an government office in a short while.

Led by the servants in the yamen, he soon met the old man who was working before the case.

"Grandpa, Yuner brought you mung bean soup."

Dai Qingyun shouted obediently, although this character is not her nature, but in order not to make others suspicious, let's pretend it.

"Oh, Yun'er is here, but her body is still uncomfortable."

The old man raised his head, got up and sat on a chair beside him, Xi'er opened the food box, took out the cold mung bean soup, and handed it to the old man.

Dai Qingyun shook his head and said it was all right.

The grandparents and grandchildren were chatting back and forth when someone came.

"My lord, long time no see."

Dai Qingyun turned his head to look, and saw a man dressed as a businessman bowing to the old man with a big belly.

"Hehe, brother Wu sent a letter yesterday, brother, I will be waiting for you today."

The old man Dai got up and smiled, "I haven't seen you for a few years, but you are getting richer and richer."

"Adults will make fun of my brother, hahaha, hurry up, bring things up."

Wu Ji yelled, and saw five or six servants coming in carrying three large boxes.

"My brother knows that adults love to read books. No, I have collected a lot of ancient books outside these years, and I hope adults will accept them!"

The old man Dai looked at the three opened boxes and laughed, "My brother is too polite, isn't it, with so many ancient books, how can I let you give up love."

I saw that Wu Ji waved his hand, "My lord, don't look outside."

Between the two pushing three times and four times, Wu Ji asked someone to carry the box to the acting mansion.

The old man shook his head, and said helplessly, "In that case, let's go to the house tonight, let's have a good drink, and see how much less you drink than you did a few years ago."

"Naturally, I can't drink as much as you do, hahaha." Wu Ji twirled the wrench in his hand, and said regretfully, "However, my brother is going to the north today, so I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you for dinner."

……

Dai Qingyun sat in the side hall, and Wu Ji didn't leave until he yawned for the second time.

"Master, my granddaughter doesn't bother you with your work, so I'll go back home first."

"Well, I heard that Yun'er has been reading for the past few days. When I go back, I will pick out the ones I like to read in those boxes."

The old man Dai told the servant girl a few more words, and Dai Qingyun returned to the mansion.

When I went to the old man's study, I saw the three boxes neatly arranged.

When I opened the box, it was exactly as Wu Ji said, there were many rare ancient books.

Dai Qingyun became interested. She was already interested in these ancient books in modern times, and this meeting was exactly what she wanted.

Several maids arranged the books neatly, making it easier for Dai Qingyun to choose.

Seeing a book called Miscellaneous Tan Ji, Dai Qingyun opened it and flipped through it, but unexpectedly there was a letter in the book.

The letter was clean and tidy, unlike the one that had been put away for many years, driven by curiosity, Dai Qingyun opened the letter.

I don’t know, I’m scared.

Dai Qingyun hurriedly put away the letter, and saw that several maids were sorting out the books, but did not find the letter.

"Xi'er, take them and clean up first, I'll go and accompany grandma."

"Yes, ma'am."

Dai Qingyun's footsteps are small, she can't wait to run, her heart is pounding, she doesn't want to have an accident after a few days of her birthday.

The letter wrote the route of the entire Huai'an Mansion. Huai'an Mansion is close to the Wujiang River, and there are many large and small piers. It is well written on it when it will dock, when it will attack, and those who will respond. It is densely packed and has three pages. !
Dai Qingyun tightly grasped the letter in his sleeve, before he said that there was no Zhan Luan, he came here!
All of a sudden, my mind was in a mess and I had no clue.

Arriving in front of Mrs. Lin's room, she took a breath and knocked on the door.

After entering the room, Dai Qingyun changed his cute and cute appearance, and sat beside the old lady quite seriously.

He glanced at the servants in the room.

The old lady understood that she had something to say to her, "Go down, don't come in without orders."

"Yes."

"What's wrong, Yun'er, I'm sweating so much." The old lady took out a handkerchief and wiped Dai Qingyun's sweat.

"Grandma, someone sent some boxes of books to Grandpa today, and I found this letter in the book."

Dai Qingyun pursed her lips, this matter was related to the safety of Huai'an Mansion, she had to be anxious.

The old lady read the letter, her brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

"This letter..."

"Grandma, don't worry, no one else saw it." Dai Qingyun looked at Mrs. Lin's reaction and heaved a sigh of relief.

"Okay, Yun'er did the right thing." Madam Lin stood up and put away the letter.

"Come here, go and invite the old man back to the mansion, just say that I am not feeling well."

The servants responded and left the mansion.

The old man got the letter and hurried back to the mansion.

After a cup of tea, the old man read the letter and slapped the table angrily, "Okay, okay, it's really good to dare to make such calculations."

……

Dai Qingyun didn't know how the old man would deal with this matter, so he had to read in the courtyard for entertainment.

On the second day, only heard the report from the front yard, General Zhenyuan came to the mansion with a large number of officers and soldiers, Dai Qingyun saw that something was wrong, and hurriedly went to find Mrs. Li.

"Mother, how much cash do you have at home?"

Dai Qingyun was a little uneasy. It seemed that the old man had handed over the letter to General Zhenyuan. Although it had nothing to do with their family, this situation...

I'm afraid I will suffer!
"What's the matter?" Mrs. Li looked at her daughter in confusion, "These all belong to our fourth wife."

The left and right are only a few hundred taels of silver bills, and the rest of the money has been handed over to the public.

Suddenly, screams came from the front yard, and Dai Qingyun thought something was wrong.

He hurriedly stuffed all the banknotes into Li Shi's coat, and stuffed the scattered silver into his purse randomly, and also hid it in the coat.

"What's the matter, why are the officers and soldiers here!"

Mrs. Li was still wondering about her daughter's behavior, and saw a large number of officers and soldiers from the window.

"Everyone come out, the government handles the case!"
