Chapter 99 The Greedy Snake
Shu Yuan was taken aback by being picked up suddenly, and then she was a little ashamed; but now she is not just waking up for a few days, and she knows Jin Chengye's temperament very well, so she suppresses her shame.

Of course you can't just press the button if you want to feel ashamed, but at least it can cover up a part or two. Otherwise, if Jin Chengye sees it, he will only be more interested in teasing her.

Shuyuan tried her best to keep her expression unchanged and her tone unchanged: "I'm very inconvenient now..." She was reminding Jin Chengye of the fact that she was pregnant—it's not that I won't keep you overnight, it's really inconvenient.

Although she didn't want to show shame, she still blushed when she said the words.Although she has been a wife for three years, and she will be a mother in a few months, but now her heart is exactly the same as that of a newly married girl.

Jin Chengye looked at her and smiled: "I don't think there is any inconvenience." He could see that Shu Yuan was shy at a glance, and his heart was itchy: "We will talk about it in detail when we go back."

"Say it in detail" was elongated by him, coupled with his naked eyes, there was no need to explain what was going to be said in detail—there was no such thing as a boudoir, and now Jin Chengye's words were naked enough and shameful enough dead.

Shu Yuan was defeated again, facing Jin Chengye's cheekiness, she really had no way to do it; she was a little bit annoyed and there were some things she couldn't understand.

She didn't speak anymore, because Jin Chengye tightened his arms again: this time it wasn't that he wanted to be "frivolous" or tease her, but that he didn't want the rain to fall on Shuyuan's body, and also wanted to make Shuyuan warmer.

The rain is not small but the wind is stronger. When the rain hits people, even if there is a coir raincoat, there is still a chill.

A lightning flashed across their heads, and the loud thunder made Shu Yuan shrink back.

Sensing that Shuyuan was startled by the thunder, Jin Chengye lowered his head and said softly while striding forward: "Don't be afraid, don't worry about how big the wind and rain or how big the thunder is, I'm here."

Shu Yuan looked up at him, because the most Jin Chengye said to her was: there is me; other than that, Jin Chengye didn't seem to say anything else.

But Shu Yuan could hear the deep affection contained in those two words. When Jin Chengye teased her, he said a lot of sincerity, but at certain times he was so inarticulate.

But for some reason, Shu Yuan felt a kind of peace of mind, this embrace made her sleepy: she only felt this way when she was in her parents' arms when she was a child.

She didn't say anything, she put her head on his chest, feeling him running steadily and fast in the rain step by step, and suddenly felt that the rain was actually not that annoying.

The Jin Mansion was much quieter in the heavy rain, and most of the servants were free, and they could sit in a daze or find a few people to have some wine.

"They're all idiots." There was a figure at the end of the dark corridor, staring at the direction where Jin Chengye and Shuyuan disappeared, and cursed bitterly: "They were sent out so easily."

The man was hiding in the dark so that no one could see his head and face, but there was strong resentment in his voice: "It seems that the bitch of the Lu family can't get things done, so I have to think of another way."

"It's like a pig, but only such a person is worthy of Jin Chengye, and he needs to help the bitch of the Lu family. Who can help?"

The man spoke in a low voice, talking to himself not for thinking, but talking to himself.

Suddenly there was the sound of footsteps, the man shrank back in shock, but did not leave; until he saw a woman approaching, the man coughed a few times: "You have been late for a long time, causing me to wait here It's all fine."

The old woman is the person who works at the back door, and everyone calls her Lai old woman: it's not that her husband's family name is Lai or her maiden name Lai, but that this person is very greedy and doesn't have so much money in his hand, so he usually eats and eats. drink.

"The debt collector from my family is here again. I sent him away in a hurry. After all, it took a while." Lai Pozi bent over with a smile. No respect.

"Although it was delayed, I didn't miss your business. You still have to thank me." At this point, she looked at the man.

That person was in the dark, even if other people saw Lai Lai, they could only see Lai Lai alone: ​​it was as if Lai Lai was talking to the pillar.

Grandma Lai didn't speak again, but leaned over again and stretched out her hand: She really couldn't bear it these few days, and she couldn't say anything if she didn't see money.

After taking such a big risk, no matter what, I need to get some more money. I would like to have a good glass of wine later, and it would be best to get two more dishes to go with the wine.

Such a cold day is really suitable for drinking.Thinking of this, Mrs. Lai felt that the wine worms in her stomach had crawled into her throat, and she swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva so itchy.

"Hmph." The man didn't say much, and she knew what Lai Lai's plan was without reaching out her hand, so she didn't talk nonsense and just threw a small dusty purse to Lai Lai.

As soon as Mrs. Lai felt the weight of the silver bag with her hands, her eyebrows and eyes frowned. Just based on the weight, it was worth at least two taels.I couldn't wait to open the money bag, saw the broken silver inside and felt it carefully: there are almost two or three, right?

Originally, she thought that she could make a lot of money today if she had more than one or two yuan, but she didn't expect the other party to be so generous. After being happy, her heart moved, she looked up at the man and smiled, "You know I took a big risk, hey-hey."

She paused slightly: "Young mistress is not as good as before. If you let her know what I did for you, even breaking my legs would be light."

The man snorted again, took out something from his sleeve and threw it at Lai Lai's feet: "Say it quickly. Greed is not enough to swallow an elephant, so I advise you to accept it as soon as you see it."

Grandma Lai saw the thing covered with gold and silver under her feet, she couldn't see her teeth from her smile, she responded to the man's words: "Yes, yes, I'm not such a greedy person, but you know Young Mistress."

After taking the things in her hands and feeling the weight, she smiled even more cheerfully, and put the things away carefully: "You asked me to inquire about Miss Mi's family, and now that Miss Mi has flown onto a branch."

This time, the person didn't need to ask Mrs. Lai whether the bamboo tube was pouring beans, and he made it clear what he knew: "Mi's girl was carried into the palace on the third day after she went back."

"I went to the palace yesterday to ask my aunt's aunt's uncle, and now Miss Mi's family is the aunt in the palace."

When she said this, she looked at the man and leaned forward: "Do you know that the Mi family girl is really a person with means. Since she entered the palace, the prince has been in her room all the time. Been in someone else's room."

"You have to know whether it's the princess or other concubines, or the housemate, who is not a fairy-like person..."

What she rambled on about was not important anymore, and most of it was her conjecture, or even her fantasy.

The man didn't interrupt her, he didn't ask until he closed his mouth when Mrs. Lai said a cup of tea, "You said you have relatives in the palace?"

In fact, this is nothing.It is normal for the servants in the major mansions to have some relatives, just like all the major mansions are related to each other. The servants of each mansion want to get married, except for their own family, that is, the servants of other mansions.

However, there are really not many people who can get involved with the palace.Firstly, the door of the Wangfu is not so easy to enter, and secondly, there are still many people who are very taboo about their relationship with the Wangfu.

Of course, Mrs. Lai didn't think so much, she was always proud of having relatives working in the palace, and she often brag about it to others.

Hearing that person's question at this moment, he smiled so that his crooked yellow teeth were exposed: "Yes, my relative is not an ordinary person in the palace, even the prince has a chance to show her face."

The man was silent for a while before saying: "You can go. Well, give me back the gold and silver." She took out an ingot of silver from her sleeve as she spoke, which weighed five taels.

Grandma Lai originally changed her face when she heard the man begging for something, but when she saw the silver, she immediately turned angry into joy, but she was driven by greed: "This is also a reward..."

"The gold wrapped around the silver is only one or two taels if you go for it. There are five taels of silver. You can choose which one you want." The man ignored Mrs. Lai and just threw the silver away.

Grandma Lai looked at the ingot of silver, still thinking that she wanted both gold and silver, but after swallowing a mouthful of saliva, she returned the gold and silver to the man, and took the five taels of silver.

"I'll give you one more thing, hurry up, remember?" The man told Lai Lai a few words in a low voice, then sent Lai Lai away.

It wasn't until Mrs. Lai left that the man left slowly step by step.

The houses in the Jin Mansion could not be seen very clearly in the heavy rain, but even if there were no people who were covered by the rain in the Jin Mansion, few people would be able to see clearly.

After the old lady heard that Shuyuan had rescued Lu Fuhui, she didn't say much and sent all the maids away, leaving only Nanny Wu.

"Unexpectedly, the child Shuyuan became transparent when he fell ill, and finally someone in our Beifu can reassure me;" the old lady lay on the bed, half-closed her eyes: "Our Jin family has no shortage of people with means and scheming." .”

"There is only one person in Beifu who has a heart to do things and is very measured." The old lady opened her eyes and looked at Madam Wu: "What do you think?"

Madam Wu smiled and said, "It's very valuable to save people, but it's even more valuable if you save people without causing trouble for yourself. Young Mistress, it's really a cure from an illness."

Haishi pondered for a while and raised his eyelids: "Do you think Shuyuan hasn't forgotten anything, or she remembered something? Otherwise, it's really..."

The room fell silent all of a sudden, and the scar on Aunt Wu's face became more and more terrifying.
