After Bai Yueguang was reborn, the regent became black

Gu Yunxi gave Hongzao a few days off, but just two days later, Hongzao came back in the dark.

"Why don't you spend more time with your sister at home?" Gu Yunxi asked.

"Children are very forgetful, and they have improved a lot in the past two days."

Hongzao continued: "The maidservant was also worried about Miss, and entrusted Erya to Aunt Yu next door, and came back immediately."

Then she naturally walked behind Gu Yunxi, untied her bun, picked up a wooden comb and combed it gently.

"Is Aunt Yu reliable?" Gu Yunxi asked looking at the jujube in the mirror.

"Miss, don't worry, Aunt Yu is an upright person, and the servant has left enough silver taels, she will definitely not treat Er Ya badly." Hong Zao said.

"Well," Gu Yunxi said, "If you have any difficulties, remember to tell me."

"Thank you, miss." Hong Zao put down the comb in his hand, and saluted Gu Yunxi.

As soon as she stood up, Longan opened the curtain and walked in.

"Sister Hongzao, come and taste Sister Xiangling's craftsmanship."

Longan walked into the room with a very excited face and a food box in her hand.

The petal-shaped pastries were put on the table, still steaming, and smelled sweet and fragrant, which whetted the appetite.

Hongzao hesitated: "This is?"

"This is Furong Cake, just out of the pan." Longan said happily, "Sister Xiangling heard that Sister Hongzao is back, so she specially made it."

"Try it quickly, Sister Xiangling's craftsmanship is better than the chefs in the pastry shop." Longan urged.

"Ah."

The corners of the jujube's eyes were reddish and wet, so he picked up a piece without hesitation and took a small bite.

The sweet fragrance instantly filled the whole mouth, and the warm and soft pastry warmed the stomach of the red dates, and also warmed her heart.

Obviously she doesn't like sweets, but at the moment it makes her feel very warm and sweet.

"How is it?" Longan asked expectantly.

After all, this is the first time Xiangling's sister made this hibiscus cake, and she has never eaten it.

"Delicious." Red Date looked at the longan's slanderous appearance, and chuckled.

"Try it too."

Hong Zao picked up a piece of pastry and handed it to Longan.

Longan took it unceremoniously, and then ate it in small bites with a very satisfied expression.

"When I just returned to the mansion, I saw Miss Ziyan's carriage parked in front of the mansion."

Hongzao remembered and reported to Gu Yunxi.

"Sister Ziyan returned home?" Gu Yunxi paused slightly as she stroked Qingsi's hand.

"It shouldn't be wrong." Hongzao asked, "Miss, do you want to go and have a look now?"

Gu Yunxi looked outside, it was completely dark, and shook her head.

"No, it's the same tomorrow."

On the second day, after Gu Yunxi went to greet the old lady, she came to the Nuanfeng Pavilion where Lin Ziyan lived.

Lin Ziyan had been ill for a long time, and the second wife was afraid that her servants would disturb her peace, so she only left two maids, and the two women took care of her daily.

Even the courtyard is very quiet, quite in the style of Jiangnan courtyards, it seems that a lot of thought has been wasted.

"Why is Second Sister here?"

Lin Ziyan came out from the house with a look of joy and surprise on her face.

The gentle voice is like a ray of spring breeze, blowing gently, refreshing.

"Sister Ziyan doesn't welcome me?" Gu Yunxi asked.

"How come, it's rare that someone is willing to come to my yard." Lin Ziyan said while holding Gu Yunxi's hand.

"Miss, don't catch a cold." The maid Qingluan said.

Bring a thick cloak and cover Lin Ziyan's body.

The silvery white fox fur made her small face more gentle and delicate.

Lin Ziyan seemed to have gotten used to this kind of life, and the smile on her pale face remained unchanged.

He took Gu Yunxi's hand and led her into the house.

As soon as the heavy door curtain was raised, the head-on heat rushed towards Gu Yunxi.

In the open space in the center of the house, there is a charcoal stove, inside which are several pieces of silver charcoal that are burning red.

"Sister Ziyan used charcoal fire so early?" Gu Yunxi frowned slightly and asked.

Although it was almost November, and after the autumn rain half a month ago, the weather was getting colder every day, but it was definitely not enough to ask for charcoal.

"You made my second sister laugh." Lin Ziyan pursed her lips and said, "It's getting cold, I don't want my mother to worry."

Gu Yunxi felt that what Lin Ziyan said was a little strange.

It seemed that she used charcoal just to reassure the second wife, not because her body couldn't stand the cold.

Although Gu Yunxi had doubts, she still smiled and said, "Sister Ziyan is weak, so Second Aunt is naturally worried."

"It's my fault." Lin Ziyan said with her usual expression.

After speaking, he didn't seem to want to continue discussing this topic, so he picked up the small wooden shovel at hand and compacted the soil in the small flower pot little by little.

There was water vapor on the loose soil, and Gu Yunxi guessed that Lin Ziyan should have just watered it before she came.

"Sister Ziyan, what are you planting?" Gu Yunxi asked.

"Zhulan, a kind of flower." Lin Ziyan said softly.

"What kind of flower is this? I've never heard of it before." Gu Yunxi said.

Lin Ziyan put down the wooden shovel in her hand and said softly:

"I've never seen it before, but I heard that it looks like pearls and orchids, and it's very beautiful, so I want to see it with my own eyes."

Lin Ziyan looked at the ungerminated seeds with warm eyes full of hope.

Gu Yunxi's inquiring eyes fell on Lin Ziyan's face, and then turned to the landscape painting hanging behind her.

What is painted is the endless sky, layers of mountains, and endless rivers.

"Master Huiming's painting skills have become more and more exquisite." Gu Yunxi said casually.

"Second sister is really amazing."

Lin Ziyan was a little surprised, she didn't seem to expect that Gu Yunxi could tell that it was Huiming's pen and ink at a glance.

"Thank you, sister Ziyan, for your praise. I was fortunate enough to see Master Huiming painting before, and I was very impressed." Gu Yunxi said.

"Master Huiming is absolutely stunning and truly unforgettable." Lin Ziyan said with a little emotion.

"Sister Ziyan is familiar with Master Huiming?" Gu Yunxi continued to ask.

"Yeah." Lin Ziyan didn't deny it, "We've known each other since we were young."

Lin Ziyan talked about Huiming without any shyness, which made Gu Yunxi feel that maybe she was really careless.

But when she thought of Lin Ziyan's eyes that day, she still felt uneasy.

"It's just a friendship from a young acquaintance?" Gu Yunxi was silent for a while, and finally asked directly.

Lin Ziyan is intelligent, so how could she fail to understand the meaning of Gu Yunxi's words.

"What does Second Sister want to ask?" Lin Ziyan looked at Gu Yunxi and asked calmly.

But it was such a fluffy sentence that made Gu Yunxi's heart fall to the bottom.

"You and Huiming?" Gu Yunxi asked while pinching the handkerchief in her hand.

"It seems that the second sister knows."

Lin Ziyan put a cup of hot tea in front of Gu Yunxi, the smile on her face remained unchanged from the beginning to the end.

"I agree with him."

Lin Ziyan's gaze was firm and she did not shy away from it.
