Chapter 274 Child!
Chapter 274 Child!
The young eunuch walked out of the room with the banknotes and blueprints in his hand, feeling depressed. He was thinking whether he had messed up today's task or not. Unexpectedly, as he stepped out of the door, he knocked down a child who was running towards him in a hurry.
The child quickly stood up and ran into the house, shouting anxiously, "Aunt, what happened to Sister Qing? My teacher said that she was being chased by someone. Is that true?"
Wan Niang had just put her daughter back on the bed when Lin Yinhu rushed to her.
This child was driven to the courtyard where Qingshan Jun lived before Lin Yuzan left, under the pretext of making him suffer from mental problems, and he was taken care of until the Master recovered.
For this purpose, Lin Yuzan handed the wrinkled 50 taels of silver to Duke Chen as accommodation fee.
He didn't want to come and enjoy the feast yesterday, so Wan Niang gave some to him.
Wan Niang looked at him and reluctantly reminded him, "Brother Hu, you just bumped into someone, go and apologize."
Lin Yinhu looked at the baby on the bed with concern, then walked back to the little eunuch and bowed to apologize.
Wan Niang also came out and said apologetically, "This child is my husband's nephew. He is always noisy. Please don't blame me, father-in-law."
The young eunuch forced a smile and glanced at a little kid not far away, who was secretly looking at him. "Mrs. Lin has so many children."
He didn't want to stay any longer, so he stretched out his hand and was about to bow and say goodbye.
The incident happened suddenly.
Lin Yinhu saw the hundred taels of silver in his hand and waved his hand quickly, "Eunuch, you don't have to give me money. This is the first time we meet, so you don't have to be so generous."
Wan Niang:......
Young eunuch: ...
"Brother Hu, what nonsense are you talking about?" Wan Niang scolded in a low voice.
"Hey, Mrs. Lin..."
The young eunuch put the banknote in his hand into Lin Yinhu's hand with great heartache, "My master forgot to prepare a gift for this young master. This hundred taels is the gift from the master to you."
Lin Yinhu refused on the surface, but his body accepted it honestly, and he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately it's one hundred taels. Last time that uncle gave me one thousand taels, I didn't know what to do."
The young eunuch could only smile numbly. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the little boy whom he had been peeking at before running towards him quickly. He was startled and hurriedly said goodbye and ran away in a hurry.
Wan Niang:......
After many twists and turns, the one hundred taels finally returned to Wan Niang.
She looked at the child who was giving her money in silence. His smile was so sincere that she couldn't bear to scold him. In the end, she could only sigh and say, "Brother Hu, don't take other people's money next time."
"Ah? Little aunt, don't you say that a gift from an elder cannot be refused?" Lin Yinhu asked, scratching his head innocently.
Then he began to fantasize: "Next time if someone gives me money, I will give it to the teacher as a gift."
Wan Niang:......
I really don't know what to say about this honest child.
At this time, Wang Gungun had already come to Wanniang and asked anxiously, "Aunt, is that person here to trick you?"
Wan Niang put on a faint smile and said softly, "You don't need to trap me. I will tell him directly what he wants to know."
Little Yining leaned on the bed, listening to her mother's words, and couldn't help feeling that Yanjing was really a place where people could make progress.
My mother has become more powerful too.
Without spending a penny, she got 10 safety locks. To save face, the man would definitely use good materials, maybe even better than the jade her father found.
Not long after, several familiar voices were heard outside. Little Yining hurriedly stuck her head out of the bed and saw Chen Jiaoyi greeting her mother, followed by Xu Niannian.
Although Wan Niang had politely declined the visitors today, there were still people she could not stop, such as Prince Yu and the two young ladies from Duke Chen.
Chen Jiaoyi reached out and touched little Yining's forehead. It felt a little hot, and she couldn't help shedding tears. "Who on earth is so cruel that he wanted to kill sister Yining and uncle? My uncle tied a lot of gauze and smiled and said it was nothing."
Apart from Duke Chen, Chen Jiaoyi was the one in the Chen family who cared the most about Pei Yi. When she heard from adults that he had been attacked, she hurried over.
Xiao Yining raised her eyes to look at her and asked, "Sister Chen, is my cousin awake?"
"When I went over there, he had just woken up and A Da was feeding him porridge." Chen Jiaoyi replied while wiping her tears.
Xiao Yining breathed a sigh of relief. Although his fellow villager's body was broken, he still had a hint of strength.
She didn't know how to comfort this sad young lady, so she turned her attention to Xu Niannian.
In fact, they were not familiar with each other. Because of the problem of speaking, she seldom went to play with the younger sisters in her class and always did things quietly.
Feeling the gaze, Xu Niannian hurried forward and took little Yining's hand with concern, "Yi Yi Yi Yi Yi Yi...Yining Ning Ning Ning..."
Xiao Yining: ...
Chen Jiaoyi: ...
The sad atmosphere was instantly destroyed.
"Sister Xu, please write!" Chen Jiaoyi reminded her in a friendly manner.
Xu Niannian was a little anxious, but she continued to say "Kekekekekekeke..."
"Write it down later and I'll read it to Sister Yining." Chen Jiaoyi replied with a rare understanding.
Xiao Yining: Is it possible that I can also recognize the words that you can recognize?
Xu Niannian smiled brightly, took the pen and paper handed to her by Qiu Yi, and started writing hurriedly.
"Sister Yining, are you feeling unwell somewhere? My father said he would work with Jingzhao Yin to catch the mastermind behind this, and he wanted me to ask you if you and your uncle have ever offended anyone."
Xiao Yining looked at the words on the paper. This was a lethal dose, and Xu Niannian might not be able to finish even if she talked until night.
She tilted her head and thought for a long time, then hesitated and said, "Could it be Master Nalan? Last night I asked him if he was feeling better, and he was unhappy."
"That shouldn't count!" Chen Jiaoyi was a little speechless.
"Why not?" Xiao Yining replied. The Nalan siblings were narrow-minded and it was inexplicable that they targeted her.
Chen Jiaoyi looked at Xu Niannian and said, "Sister Xu, you came here for nothing."
Xu Niannian suddenly became nervous, her face turned red, and she kept waving her hands. She even forgot to write a word and said directly, "I, I, I, I, I, I am, yes, yes..."
Chen Jiaoyi: ...
She silently stuffed the pen and paper into Xu Niannian's hands, and he hurriedly started writing again.
"I really came to see sister Yining, but my father asked me to come and ask about it. He said that there was no trace of anything on the person from last night."
