I Just Won’t Play by the Book

Chapter 177: Strange question

"Xiaoya, what do you always follow me today?"

In the Hong Mansion, Hong Dingfeng looked back at his younger sister and asked.

"Oh~ I was discovered by my eldest brother. Actually, a new batch of silks and satin have arrived at Fengxiang Shop today. They look really good."

After hearing this, Hong Dingfeng smiled and replied: "Why, father doesn't allow you to buy it?"

"Hey, big brother is still smart."

"You, there are so many silks and satin in the warehouse. You have to buy them outside. No wonder Dad disagrees."

"Is this a newcomer, not at home."

Shaking his head helplessly, Hong Dingfeng said, "If you want silver to find your second brother, I am not rich either."

"Okay~" After a long tone, Hong Yaxuan turned and left.

"This girl is too realistic..." Seeing Hong Yaxuan's decisive departure, Hong Dingfeng couldn't help rolling his eyes.

When Hong Dingfeng walked away, Hong Yaxuan patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

‘Unexpectedly, I was discovered by my eldest brother so soon, but fortunately I am witty. ’

After the discussion yesterday, Jiang Beiran's only task for Hong Yaxuan was to let her go home and see what was different in the house from before. Don't let go of any details.

Naturally, Hong Yaxuan started with the eldest brother who knew the most about the family, but after the whole morning, she didn't see the difference between her eldest brother and usual, and even the sadness that had appeared before disappeared.

‘Has the trouble caused by the Liu family been resolved? ’

Feeling that things would not be so simple, Hong Yaxuan thought hard and decided to observe the second brother again.

At the time of You, as agreed, Hong Yaxuan came to the pavilion.

"Did you find anything?" Jiang Beiran, who was sitting in the pavilion, raised his head and asked Hong Yaxuan.

"I...I found out that my second brother went out to eat with my sister-in-law on his back again!"

Jiang Beiran let out a sigh of relief, "What else?"

"This is very serious! My sister-in-law is so virtuous, he actually..."

Hong Yaxuan was halfway through her words. Seeing Jiang Beiran's increasingly fierce eyes, she slowly closed her mouth and lowered her head.

"I'm not interested in your housework, just talk about business."

"Oh... I followed my two brothers for a day, but I really didn't find anything. They are all the same as usual."

"Hey, it seems that I still overestimate you." Jiang Beiran finished speaking and said to Luo Wenzhou, who was standing to one side, "Go and call Chengyi."

"Yes."

Luo Wenzhou responded and walked out of the pavilion.

Not long after, Gu Qinghuan was taken into the pavilion and yelled at Jiang Beiran, "Big Brother."

Hong Yaxuan met Boss Song several times at home, and knew that even when Dad saw Boss Song, he would welcome him with a smile and treat him as a distinguished guest.

And Boss Song at this time... just like the housekeeper Zhang looked at his father.

"Where is this person sacred..." Hong Yaxuan couldn't help but glanced at Jiang Beiran again.

After explaining the matter to Gu Qinghuan in detail, Jiang Beiran looked at Hong Yaxuan and said, "Tomorrow I will let Cheng Yi go to your residence. All you have to do is find an empty space where no one can stay. Do you understand?"

"Nobody's open space? What do you mean?" Hong Yaxuan asked strangely.

Without answering Hong Yaxuan, Jiang Beiran looked at Gu Qinghuan and said, "Do you understand the plan?"

"Understood." Gu Qinghuan nodded.

'what? Plan, what plan? ’

Hong Yaxuan looked dumbfounded. She had been listening just now, but she hadn't heard of any plans to appear.

"Well, go, teach her what to do on the way."

"Yes." As he arched his hands towards Jiang Beiran, Gu Qinghuan left the pavilion with Hong Yaxuan, who was still in a daze.

When Gu Qinghuan walked away, Jiang Beiran looked at Luo Wenzhou on the side and said, "You should also check with Liu Mansion to see if there is anything unusual."

"Yes." Luo Wenzhou also walked out of the pavilion with a hand over Jiang Beiran.

Sitting back at the stone table, Jiang Beiran took a sip from the teacup.

Putting the two black stones that I didn't know where they came from on the chessboard, Jiang Beiran's eyes flashed.

"The Liu family backed by the royal family and the Hong family backed by the Sifangzong, what kind of disturbances can these two forces cause..."

Then Jiang Beiran kept dropping several sunspots on the chessboard.

"The first time I came to Lanzhou, I was involved in the center of influence. I am afraid that I have to be more careful if I want to be harmless."

Speaking, Jiang Beiran picked up another white child.

"Fortunately, I have enough chess pieces, and I... also very good at playing slow chess."

With a "da", Jiang Beiran dropped Baizi away from the box.

At noon the next day, Hong Yaxuan, who had just finished her lunch, stood beside a rockery in the yard. No one would come here on weekdays, which met the requirements of Lin Yu.

‘Who is he and why did he come to Jiyuan Town? Wouldn't it be a mistake to ask him for help? ’

Just when Hong Yaxuan was thinking about some things, she suddenly felt that she was photographed behind her back.

Hong Yaxuan instinctively wanted to scream, but remembering the explanation from Boss Song yesterday, she quickly covered her mouth.

Turning around, I saw Boss Song, wearing a long shirt, appearing in front of her out of thin air.

"Song... Boss Song, where did you come in from?"

Yesterday when Hong Yaxuan heard that Lin Yu wanted Boss Song to come to their house, Hong Yaxuan thought it was a very formal visit, but after talking with Boss Song, he realized that he did not intend to go to the front door.

However, even though he was mentally prepared, seeing Boss Song suddenly appeared in front of him, Hong Yaxuan was still a little frightened.

Gu Qinghuan suddenly appeared in front of Hong Yaxuan, naturally because he wore a stalemate. Since the last time Jiang Beiran thought that the style of strayedness was too single and it was a drawback, he made all kinds of outfits for strayedness. The core is the formation, not the appearance.

When Hong Yaxuan's mood stabilized a bit, Gu Qinghuan asked, "Miss Hong, I wonder if your house usually spends extravagance and waste in daily expenses?"

‘Extravagance? ’

Although Hong Yaxuan didn't understand why Boss Song would suddenly ask such a question, she still replied in earnest: "No...My father always teaches our brothers and sisters not to waste, and he is also a thrifty person."

"What about meals on weekdays? Is there violence?"

"Dining?"

Hong Yaxuan frowned and thought for a moment, "I didn't pay attention to this." After saying that, she suddenly thought of something and raised her fingers and said: "By the way, Cui Rong must know, I'll go and find her."

Soon, Hong Yaxuan dragged Qin Cuirong over.

"Hello, Mr. Song." Qin Cuirong politely said when he saw Gu Qinghuan.

Gu Qinghuan returned a bow and said, "Trouble."

On the way, Qin Cuirong had already heard her own lady tell her why she was looking for her this time, so she replied after thinking for a while.

"I sometimes go with Guixiang...Oh, Guixiang is the housemaid who specializes in grocery shopping. When I went shopping with her, she told me that the house’s rule is to eat the freshest dishes, and Master is not allowed to waste, so he usually buys as much as he eats."

After listening, Gu Qinghuan nodded twice and said, "Thank you."

Seeing that Boss Song didn't take the initiative to say why he wanted to ask this, Hong Yaxuan couldn't help but ask, "I don't know why Boss Song asked about this?"

Gu Qinghuan pursed his lips and replied: "When you were having lunch today, I went to the East Kitchen to take a look and found that there were a lot of leftovers left in the kitchen, which was quite wasteful."

"Huh?" Hong Yaxuan was a little strange after listening.

Without waiting for Hong Yaxuan to ask, Gu Qinghuan looked at Qin Cuirong and said, "Girl Cui Rong, right? I still have something to trouble you."

"Please tell me." Qin Cuirong immediately bent over and saluted.

"Do you usually help the kitchen?"

"Well, I occasionally go." Qin Cuirong nodded.

"In that case, you only need to be natural and ask something for me..."

At the time of Shen, Gui Xiang, who returned to the East Kitchen with a vegetable basket, shouted: "General Cai, there are chrysanthemum chrysanthemums for sale today at the market entrance. I bought some more. You can give it some cold salad.

Le Dong, who was picking vegetables, immediately stood up and replied: "This is a rare thing. I haven't seen you buy it for a long time. Why did you suddenly have it today?"

Because there is no refrigerator, seasonal wild vegetables like Chrysanthemum chrysanthemum are generally eaten that month, and they have to be large families.

Putting down the vegetable basket, Gui Xiang said invitingly: "Jabber went into the mountain to dig, and he dug a lot."

"Hey, have you entered the mountain? He is bold enough. Recently, there are a lot of wild animals in the mountains. I heard that there are also strange beasts."

"No, but thanks to the courage of others, we are also lucky."

When the two were talking, Qin Cuirong ran over and saw the Chrysanthemum chrysanthemum in the basket and immediately shouted: "Ah! I have wild vegetables to eat today."

Guixiang listened with a smile and said, "It's still your nose, as soon as there is something delicious."

"Why~ I miss you."

"Then you come early and go shopping with me."

"Good~ I must come early tomorrow."

After the greeting, Qin Cuirong looked at Le Dong and said, "General Cai, let me help the cook today."

The Hong family is very generous to the subordinates. The dishes eaten by the master's family can also be shared by the subordinates, especially those who help in the east kitchen, which can even eat more.

So Ledong saw that Qin Cuirong was greedy for this chrysanthemum.

"Well, well, you have to work harder." Le Dong said with a smile.

"Wrapped on me!"

After half an hour passed, Dong Chu was already busy to the end. Qin Cuirong looked at the basket in Ledong’s hand and asked, “General Cai, why do you make so many steamed buns today? It’s much more than when I came last time, oh, I Got it, is it..."

"Don't dare to talk nonsense!" Le Dong hurriedly scowled, "This is all from the elder master, let me steam more buns these days."

"Oh~" Qin Cuirong nodded clearly.

"You girl, who do you think of me, really..."

"Hey, I want to say if the master loves to eat the buns you make, let you make more, where did you want to go."

"Ghost, get out of the way, beware of bumping into you."

After staying in the East Kitchen and helping out, I also inquired that more pickles were also taken out, which was also ordered by the young master.

At Xu Shi, Qin Cuirong, who had obtained the information, cautiously came to the gate of the back garden and found her own lady.

"Are you all asked?" Hong Yaxuan asked.

"Yeah! That's all." Qin Cuirong nodded vigorously.

"Okay, let's go in."

When they came to the rockery, before the two of them looked around, they saw Boss Song coming out from behind the rockery.

Arched his hands towards the two, Gu Qinghuan looked at Qin Cuirong and said, "Thank you girl."

"No hard work, no hard work." Qin Cuirong waved her hand again and again, and then immediately replied, "Sir, I have found out everything you want me to inquire about. Dong Chu has indeed done more food these days, saying that it was ordered by the young master. "

After hearing Qin Cuirong's answer, Hong Yaxuan couldn't help being surprised secretly.

Not to mention that this information is useful or not. Boss Song discovered the abnormality after only half a day, but she had never thought about it in this direction.

‘Oh... I’m going to be called stupid by that person again, no, no! I'm not stupid, this lady is very smart, huh! ’

After comforting herself in her heart, Hong Yaxuan, who could not hold back her curiosity, asked again: "I wonder how this trivial matter will help your husband?

"The next thing will not bother Miss Lao Hong. When the results are obtained, my brother will naturally tell you in the pavilion tomorrow, go ahead and leave."

After Gu Qinghuan put on the Lun towel and walked back to the rockery again, when Hong Yaxuan and Qin Cuirong followed together, they found that he was no longer there.

In the night, Qin Cuirong, who felt a chill, grabbed the young lady's arm and said with a trembling voice, "This Mr. Song is really a strange person."

"Yes." Hong Yaxuan nodded.

However, what Hong Yaxuan was even more curious at the moment was what kind of existence the one who could control two strange men at the same time was like.

This night, Hong Yaxuan suffered from insomnia.

She tossed over and over again without trying to understand what Boss Song had discovered, and what this discovery would bring to their Hong family.

‘I’m not going to cause a big disaster...’

Hong Yaxuan suddenly panicked, but only panicked for a while, and decided not to scare herself, because her instinct told her that that person would not harm her.

‘But what is it...’

In this way, Hong Yaxuan tossed and turned to the dawn, but she was also a cultivator after all, and it was nothing if she stayed up all night, and after another breath, Hong Yaxuan, who finally waited for the appointed time, could not wait to arrive outside the pavilion.

"call……"

After adjusting his breath, Hong Yaxuan slowly walked into the pavilion and found that the three of them were in the pavilion.

As soon as Hong Yaxuan was about to hand her hand, she saw Jiang Beiran gestured to her and said: "You don't need to report today. Go home and wait for the news. I will tell you when things are found out."

"what!?"

Hong Yaxuan was taken aback~lightnovelpub.net~ but couldn't help asking: "I want to ask Song yesterday..."

"You can go back, I don't want to say it again."

Seeing Jiang Beiran's fierce eyes, Hong Yaxuan couldn't help but shrink her neck, bowed her head and said: "Yes..."

Walking to a small forest far from the pavilion, Hong Yaxuan couldn't help stomping her feet severely.

"Bad guys! They are fierce! They are fierce!"

Hong Yaxuan, who couldn't help but "puzzled" for a while, felt aggrieved in her heart, but she felt that the person had really checked the matter out, otherwise, how could she not need the help of her family members.

‘Forget it, for the sake of his care, forgive him again. ’
