When you step into the red door and pass through the corridor and pavilion, you will see no flashy things, but only elegance and charm.

Although it is in the North, the layout of the Duan Mansion is full of the word "elegance". It is not as rough as is common in the North, but more like the exquisiteness of the Jiangnan water town, but it does not have the elegance of the Jiangnan water town, retaining the atmosphere of the North.

.

It can be described as exquisite.

Although it is winter, the flowers and plants in Duan Mansion are still colorful, adding a bit of freshness.

Yu Yan followed Mrs. Zheng all the way, as she walked into the inner courtyard, while Duan Qingrong walked beside Mrs. Zheng and supported her. This is probably the scene of a loving mother and a filial son.

Zheng rarely talks, so it was Duan Qingrong who was talking along the way, "Sister, I have finally returned home. My grandfather has been urging you to come back since you were a child. In the blink of an eye, nearly two years have passed. You

Already seventeen years old."

"Your birthday is in the twelfth lunar month. I thought I could celebrate your birthday this year, but I didn't expect that I wouldn't come back until New Year's Eve. But something has delayed me. Can you tell me about it?"

Duan Qingrong turned his head slightly to talk to Yi Jin. He looked at Yi Jin with eyes full of concern and sincerity, as if he was encouraging her to share.

Yan Yan smiled slightly: "In winter, especially in the coldest month of winter, the snow in the north is always heavy and fast. Qin'an is far away from the capital, so the traveling speed is really slow."

Duan Qingrong nodded and whispered to Mrs. Zheng as she passed the steps: "Mother, be careful where you step."

Then he smiled at the ember and said: "Even though my grandfather has a stern face, he cares about you very much. He always comes three or four times a day to ask me if I have received the letters from you and where you are."

"And mother, I sent someone to clean your yard early in the morning. Even though you haven't come back yet, the charcoal fire in your house has been burning for several days. Mother said that you should burn the charcoal fire early to cool down the air.

If it's cold, your stay will be more comfortable."

Yu Yan said: "Thank you for your hard work, mother."

Mrs. Zheng said "Yes", "The girl you sent back in advance arrived more than ten days ago. I have already arranged people to enter your yard. I didn't arrange more for you with the remaining manpower. I only allocated a few to do it."

To do chores, you can choose the remaining manpower according to your own wishes. You can use it more safely if you choose it yourself, so I won’t bother with it."

Yi Yan said again, "Thank you, mother." The group was speechless.

Fortunately, they soon arrived in front of Yu Yan's courtyard. Duan Qingrong asked Yu Yan to have a good rest and helped Zheng to leave.

"Mother should wear more clothes. It's cold and windy in winter to prevent the cold air from attacking her."

Zheng turned her head slightly and looked at Duan Qingrong, while holding Duan Qingrong's hand, her eyes were soft, "Don't just blame me, I think you should be the one to wear more clothes. Your hands are cold."

"Yes, yes, mother is right, you and I should wear more clothes."

Standing in front of the courtyard gate, Yu Yan watched Zheng and Duan Qingrong chatting about home affairs as they walked away together. He raised the corners of his lips and then quickly lowered them, then turned around and entered the courtyard.

What can you be worried about? My brother is doing well!

"Miss, Miss, you are back!" As soon as Yuan Yue Ember passed through the Moon Gate, he saw the person with sharp eyes, his eyes lit up, and he hurried forward to greet him.

At that time, she met Zhan Shuyun when she returned from paying homage. After deciding to leave for the capital in four days, she went to the courtyard that Duan Chang had bought for her in Qin'an. She did not come to this courtyard often, only when she sent letters from the capital.

Some people came to deliver letters, but she never stayed there.

Without him, the house was too big, and it was too empty for her alone.

A small courtyard is better.

She sent Yuanyue to the capital in advance along with Lian Shuang and Lian Ying who were sent from the capital, and she left with Zhan Shuyun at the agreed time.

To be honest, she couldn't figure out what Duan Chang was thinking about asking Zhan Shuyun to take her back to Beijing. She didn't understand the cause and effect of Duan Chang's actions.

After much deliberation, I couldn't come up with a clue, so I could only put it down and sigh that I had to go to the capital.

Well, maybe it’s just that she’s afraid that she won’t be able to return if she puts it off again!

Yu Huan was soaking in the bathtub and sorting out the things that had happened in recent days but had not yet thought about in detail.

There is also Cui Shexi, who looks carefree and has no brains, but he is definitely not a fool, otherwise how could he escape from the bandits once, and he is not affected by the indoor fragrance when he is locked up with them. He is also a capable person.

As for whether he believed her remarks about "eating pheasants indiscriminately", I guess he didn't.

——

"Eating pheasants randomly? I believe her!"

In the private room of the restaurant, Cui Shexi stood with one foot on the bench and the other on the edge of the table. He bent down and tapped the rim of the bowl with chopsticks. His saliva flew everywhere: "It takes some effort to make up a lie. Just say a pheasant and eat me."

Only if you can believe it is there a ghost!"

"That's right, we are very smart when crossing the river!"

"Then, who is our Shexi? He is the most evil-minded person in Jiangnan, and he has many evil ideas!"

"Bah, is that what you said? You just say all kinds of nonsense."

The friends were all flattering, and some people were unwilling to flatter them. "Speaking of Cui Shexi, why did you go all the way? Are you looking for trouble?"

"Hahaha, yes, Shexi. Our Mr. Cui went all the way to visit that inhospitable place, and even got noticed by a female bandit. I have only heard of Mrs. Yazhai before, and Mr. Yazhai is the first one."

I heard that it really taught us a lot."

"What kind of 'husband who exploits the village'? Can a female bandit be a good match? I think it's more like being called a husband who exploits the village!"

Everyone burst into laughter. Cui Shexi used chopsticks to hit someone, and they immediately burst into laughter.

"Hey, Hey, Shexi, didn't you say that there was a pretty good-looking young man who encountered you together? What's his condition?"

he?

"He, I don't know if that brother is hot-hearted or has a flaw in his brain. He is really the most good person who sacrifices himself for others!"

Cui Shexi thought for a while and said, "Well, that girl is too, and her brain is probably seriously ill."

If you feel that there is no resistance from the outside, then you will be captured without mercy, and then run into the bandit's den before escaping. Isn't this a disease?

"But he is also a man of means." Cui Shexi said.

"How to say?"

Cui Shexi slammed the table, "There is incense in the room where we are locked. I learned from the past and took a variety of antidotes in advance, but nothing happened to those two guys!"

——

"You think this is nothing?"

Zhan Ming stood in front of Zhan Shuyun's bed with his sleeves tucked in. He looked at his son who was lying on the bed with a pale face and a stern mouth with drooped eyelids. His face was expressionless, "I asked you to go pick someone up from Qin'an, but you made yourself miserable."

, It’s so embarrassing to ask Miss Duan to escort you halfway.”

Zhan Shuyun also drooped his eyelids, but he didn't look at anyone, "Father, don't take this kind of job next time. If you do, you'll do it yourself next time."

Zhan Ming twitched the corners of his lips, "Okay, when you come back to find me a daughter-in-law, I won't take the job anymore. You're an old man in his twenties. People of your age are either engaged or married. What's more?

Hurry up and have all the children in your arms, but you are still a bachelor!"

Zhan Ming became more and more excited as he spoke, and his beard trembled with excitement, "You were scared away by the one who fell in love with you. You haven't fallen in love with her yet. You said you don't like blind marriages, so why don't I arrange it for you?"

Went on a blind date? What's wrong with the granddaughter of Duan Ge's hometown? You still don't like her after hearing your tone?"

Zhan Shuyun raised his eyelids and looked up at his father, "Father, why don't you worry about your second lifelong event first?"

Because of his father's position, Zhan Shuyun seemed to be rolling his eyes when he looked over. In addition to what he just said, Zhan Ming felt that Zhan Shuyun seemed to be mocking him, so he glared, "You little brat.

If you are so hard, you dare to take care of your father and me, just wait, I will definitely join you when you recover from your injuries!"

His Zhan Ming Yushitai can't be in vain!

Zhan Yushi, who was angry at himself, was thinking about reading his son's book, but Zhan Shuyun closed his eyes and replayed what happened from Qin'an to the present in his mind, and finally had to sigh: Neither of them are simple!

But who is the chivalrous woman who rescued him?
