Chapter 7 The Lotus Pond

The setting sun was setting, and the dark red sunset light fell from the window and slowly projected on the bed, making Anshu's stunning little face become more three-dimensional and clearer.

Anshu slowly opened his eyes, looking a little dazed, but compared to his sluggishness at noon, Anshu had already recovered more than half of his energy at this time.

She sat up from the bed and called softly: "Taoyao."

"Squeak~"

The door was pushed open, and Taoyao walked in with some hasty steps. She came to Anshu and asked nervously: "Gege, are you awake? Do you feel better?"

Anshu rubbed his forehead and responded softly: "Well, I'm better. Help me up."

"Yes, Grid."

Taoyao responded and helped Anshu down from the bed. Then, she put on all her clothes, packed them up, and combed her whole body.

After half an hour.

Anshu sat on the stool and was about to have dinner, but saw that there was only a bowl of black chicken noodles in fresh soup on the table.

It's not that he disliked the fact that there was only one bowl of noodles, it was just that An Shu was a little surprised by the simplicity of today.

Taoyao and Tao Ting saw Anshu's look and thoughts, so Taoyao stepped forward and explained: "Gege will just use it today. Master Liu seems to have been taken to interrogation, so there is no time to do it for Gege tonight." ”

Anshu lowered his head and looked at the bowl of black chicken noodles and asked, "He was taken for interrogation? What happened?"

Tao Ting then explained: "It's not because of the incident where the second elder brother was almost killed in the morning, but Gege doesn't need to worry. Not only Master Liu has been taken for interrogation, but now the entire dining room has been taken for interrogation. I heard that Master Qian and Master Wang were taken to be tortured, but the others are fine. I believe Master Liu will be released soon."

An Shu frowned and his expression darkened.

The entire dining room was captured and interrogated?
It seems that the situation is more serious than she imagined, and the backyard is more complicated than she expected. It seems that she must be extremely cautious and careful in the future.

Otherwise, if you are not careful, you will step into a pit.

After An Shu thought for a while, he answered: "Let Cao Wangfu go over and take a look. If Master Liu is released, he will come and report."

"Yes, Princess." Taoyao and Tao Ting responded in unison.

Anshu didn't have much appetite because of what happened in the morning, so he ate a few bites in a hurry and then went back to his room to read.

Day two.

Sibeile Mansion has returned to calm, and there is no sign of panic yesterday.

Anshu sat at the dining table and put down the book he had just read.

The food on the table has already been served, making people's taste buds jump.

The white and tender crucian carp soup is steaming with steam, the fresh asparagus fried meat is fragrant and has an unforgettable aftertaste, and the fried milk slices are bright and fresh.

The almond soup that had been prepared on the side was so beautiful that it immediately caught An Shu's attention.

"Have you really made it?" An Shu smiled lightly, with a slight curve at the corner of his mouth.Taoyao on the side immediately placed the almond soup in front of Anshu and said softly: "Master Liu brewed this for two whole hours, and then quickly had someone bring it to Gege, Gege, please try it quickly." Try it, if you like it, Master Liu will continue to make it."

"Well, I'll give it a try." An Shu placed the bowl of almond soup in front of him, took a bite with a spoon, and said with a smile: "It feels good, I'll ask Master Liu to bring it over next time. "

"Yes, Princess." Taoyao responded.

Immediately afterwards, Cao Wangfu continued: "I heard that after the entire dining room was released, Xiu Fujin disposed of two more servants."

An Shu's brows twitched, his expression darkened, and he continued: "She really wants to attract attention by making such a big noise."

Cao Wangfu continued: "I heard that the fourth master is on his way back and will return home soon."

After Anshu heard the news, she didn't care much. Anyway, she was ready to avoid being favored if she could.

···
Two days later.

One evening, the fourth master in ragged clothes walked quietly through the back door, and was greeted by Su Peisheng and quietly brought into the house.

Immediately afterwards, after the fourth master heard the news, he immediately hurried to Xian Fujin's yard. After a while, there was another big commotion in Sibeile's house.

Then, news came out that the fourth master had disposed of three servants, which instantly caused a sensation in the entire backyard.

After Anshu, who was reading in Mantingzhai, heard this sentence, he didn't take it seriously and just pretended that nothing happened. 2.59
Early the next morning.

Anshu had been reading in his room all morning. At this time, he felt a little tired of reading, so he pinched his eyebrows, put the book in his hand on the table, and exhaled slowly.

"Gege, the summer solstice is just around the corner, and several lotus flowers have bloomed in the lotus pond in the backyard. Do you want to go and have a look?" Taoyao suggested softly as she walked into Anshu.

"Lotus pond? When did it happen?" An Shu raised his head and looked at Taoyao and said, "Why didn't I see it when I entered the mansion?"

"Back to Gege, this lotus pond has been cultivated by Fourth Master. Every year it withers and disappears in winter and early spring, so it's normal for Gege to not see it for a while when she goes to visit the back garden." Taoyao stood aside. explained.

"Well, let's go take a look." Anshu stood up from the stool and walked out of the table.

After a while, the two people strolled to the lotus pond.

I saw budding lotus buds standing there. Occasionally, there were a few lotus flowers in full bloom, which made people feel elegant and beautiful.

The crystal water drops slid down from the lotus, and there were dots of starlight, which made people feel amazing.

Anshu and Taoyao stood aside and looked at the green leaves mixed with some pink flowers. They were very surprised and even let out a little bit of exclamation.

Unexpectedly, there is such a world in this backyard, which makes people feel sinking and confused, and even flashes a little bit of surprise.

"I didn't expect that this lotus pond is really enviable and fascinating. I'm really overjoyed." An Shu stood there with a slight curl in the corner of his mouth and said softly.

"Yes, this is the Fourth Master's favorite pond. If the Fourth Master were here, he would come over and take a look almost every time. He spends a lot of effort on this lotus pond every year."

Taoyao stood aside and continued to explain word for word, constantly ringing in Anshu's ears, making her eyes move.
