Chapter 357 Heroes Meeting (5)

The dark shadow in Zhuxi Garden seemed to only appear for a moment. In the blink of an eye, the courtyard was calm again.

But not long after, someone knocked on the wooden door of Jiang Yin's study: "Master, I have something to report." A black figure stood outside the door with his head lowered.

"Come in."

The black shadow quickly entered the house and closed the door: "I have met the master."

Jiang Yin put away his pen and asked, "Why are you here at this time? Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on Ban Xiyu? Could it be that there is something strange going on with her?"

The shadow guard hesitated for a moment and replied: "That's not true. In fact, my subordinates have been observing Ban Xiyu for nearly a month, and have not found any abnormalities from beginning to end."

He recalled the results of these days of tracking: "Ban Xiyu's daily behavior was very regular. He got up at three o'clock every day, had breakfast, and then sat in his room to read;

"After having lunch at noon, she would go for a walk in the back garden of the village. She sometimes played the piano or painted in her free time, and then went to bed to rest after a brief meal in the evening.

"This happens every day, without exception."

Jiang Yin nodded without any reaction: "Everything sounds normal. By the way, I remember you reported that Ban Xiyu had had a dispute with Lan'er. What happened next? Can Ban Xiyu find Lan'er alone again? ?”

The shadow guard replied: "After the quarrel that day, although the second young master was angry, he did not find any trouble with Ban Xiyu in private, and Ban Xiyu never took the initiative to get in trouble. He was quite calm and knew what to do. What not to do.”

Jiang Yin asked again: "Did you find any clues about the content of their dispute later?"

"At that time, my subordinates were worried about being noticed by the Second Young Master and did not dare to follow too closely, so they did not fully hear the content of the dispute between the two." The shadow guard said: "And the people who serve the Second Young Master are very tight-lipped. Nothing was found.”

Jiang Yin lowered his head and thought without speaking.

The shadow guard then said: "But they calmed down after having trouble once. Maybe it's nothing important?"

Hearing this, Jiang Yin burst out laughing: "If it really doesn't matter, will Lan'er be so angry that she loses all her grace?"

"This..." Shadow Guard hesitated for a moment, then asked: "In the opinion of the master, should my subordinates continue to stare at Ban Xiyu?"

"No need." Jiang Yin waved his hand and said, "Tomorrow is the Heroes Meeting, and all martial arts heroes will be present. By the time I meet the old members of the Ban family, she will be of little use.

"If she is obedient, I will accept her as my daughter-in-law; but if she is disobedient, I will eradicate her, and I will eradicate her without mercy."

"Yes, I understand."

"Okay, I know what's going on, please step back." Jiang Yin said, "By the way, go call Manager Xu over. I have a few things to explain."

"Subordinate, go right away."

After a while, Uncle Xu knocked on the door and came in. "Master, are you looking for me?"

"Sit." Jiang Yin leaned back on the seat and took a sip of tea: "I called you here because I want to ask you, how is the situation at the Ban family? Are all the old members of the Ban family who responded to the letter a while ago? Are you in town?"

Xu Shu said: "My subordinates are just about to talk to the village owner about this matter - according to reports from my subordinates, the old members of the Ban family have all set off after getting the news, and they will arrive at the villa tomorrow."

Jiang Yin nodded with satisfaction: "Very good. What about the two old guys from the Ban family?"

"According to what the village owner said, she has been imprisoned in the dungeon." Xu Shu said: "At first, the two elders of the Ban family did not believe that Miss Ban was in our hands and tried to resist. But after they saw the token given to them by their subordinates, they became honest." The old man is protective of the calf and is willing to exchange himself for asking us to let Ban Xiyu go. "

Jiang Yin: "Yeah. You have to be careful with the Ban family. It doesn't matter who else is around. Just be careful not to let them cause trouble and don't spread the news. Otherwise, the old Ban family hears the news and wants to fool them, but just Difficult."

"This subordinate is spared, but..." Uncle Xu hesitated: "Are the old members of the Ban family really willing to obey the owner of the village? I am worried that they will..."

"You don't need to worry about this." Jiang Yin said: "As long as they enter Honghu Villa, I will naturally have a way to teach them to obey. You only need to pay attention to the movements of those people for me and be prepared for everything."

Uncle Xu: "I understand. We have been planning for a long time, just waiting for tomorrow."

"Just waiting for tomorrow."

At nightfall, a man in gray robe quickly ran into Juqingyuan.

"I'd like to inform the Second Young Master, Mr. Qu is ready, and I've asked the villain to come and ask the Second Young Master for instructions. When should we start tomorrow?"

Jiang Lan is alone in the courtyard. He sprinkled bait into the pond and teased the koi in the water. He said, "Oh? Are all the brothers here too?"

"Of course." The man cupped his hands and said, "A hundred brothers are already lurking outside the villa. They only need the second young master's order to attack Honghu Villa and help the second young master win the position of owner!"

"Okay!" Jiang Lan flicked his sleeves, with a smile on his face that said he was determined to win: "If I, the young master, can successfully win the position of the owner of the village, you will all be credited with first-class merit. When the time comes, I will definitely reward you heavily. !”

The man beamed with joy: "On behalf of all the brothers, I would like to thank the Second Young Master! I wish the Second Young Master the best of luck and success in the world!"

At this moment, Jiang Lan couldn't hide her proud look: "What's the rush? You will have a chance to congratulate me later. You go back first and help me take care of things. I'll throw a cup at you tomorrow!"

"Yes!"

When I returned to Zhuxi Garden after hearing the sound of silence, it was already late. At that time, Ban Xiyu had already had dinner and was about to take a rest. But when she put down the book in her hand and raised her eyes, she found that Wen Jisheng had just walked in from outside the door.

"I'm not too late, am I disturbing your rest?" he asked.

Ban Xiyu shook her head: "It's not time to rest yet, but... you came back very early today. Have you finished your work?"

"Tomorrow is a good day for us. No matter how busy we are, we shouldn't have to wait around tonight." Wen Jisheng smiled and said, "Besides, the busy work has been taken care of before, so today is just a matter of time." Just doing the final inventory, not as busy as before. "

"It's rare that you have free time. Sit down and drink a cup of ginseng soup. Zhuque just brought it to refresh your mind." Ban Xiyu asked: "By the way, I haven't had time to ask you yet, have you tried on the wedding dress on the wedding day?"

Wen Jisheng sat down next to her: "Of course I have tried it. How dare I be careless about such an important thing - I tried it half a month ago, and the stitches were changed according to my current size."

Ban Xiyu laughed: "That's because I delayed it - my wedding dress was just adjusted and delivered today. I only tried it on before you came, and it fits just right."

"Women's wedding attire is inherently complicated, so it's normal for the construction period to be delayed. Fortunately, it was made before the auspicious time, so it's not too late." Wen Jisheng said.

The moment the words fell, the two looked at each other and smiled.

Ban Xiyu and him sat facing each other in silence, surrounded by a quiet and warm atmosphere.

In fact, in the past month, Ban Xiyu occasionally met Wen Jisheng several times. They didn't need to deliberately say anything, they were silent to each other, but their hearts were close.

Ban Xiyu liked staying quietly with him like this.
