Xu Hanshan was a little surprised when he learned the identities of Huaixiu and the others, but he quickly calmed down. He looked at the three of them carefully and his eyes fell on Huaixiu. Huaixiu was a little surprised. Did he recognize her?

Xu Hanshan said "Oh" and handed the things in his hands to the housekeeper behind him before entering the hall and sitting down.

Huaixiu said, "Mr. Xu, the Six Doors are not responsible for this case, but Qian Desheng is a relative of Huaixiu. Huaixiu came to investigate in his own name. I hope Master Xu can tell Han Biao's situation to help us solve the problem as soon as possible."

Find him and explain the matter clearly."

"Father, Miss Li is a good person, she is my friend." Xu Qing helped Huaixiu speak. He was afraid that his father was still complaining about Uncle Han, which made Miss Li angry and refused to help.

Xu Hanshan picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, remaining silent as if thinking about something.

Xu Qing felt that his father was a little strange. Isn't this the way to treat guests when he ignored them? So he coughed lightly and said, "Father?"

After a while, Xu Hanshan put down the tea bowl and said, "I had nothing to do with Han Biao half a year ago. I don't know anything about him." Then he stood up and said to Xu Qing, "There is still something to do in the shop, so you can entertain your friends well."

After saying that, he left.

Xu Qing felt embarrassed for a moment. He looked at his father's back and then at Huaixiu, "I'm really sorry. My father is complaining about Uncle Han, not that he doesn't want to help you."

"It doesn't matter."

"When my father comes back, I will try to persuade him."

Xu Qing sent Huaixiu and the others out and kept apologizing, which made Huaixiu embarrassed.

After bidding farewell to Xu Qing, Jiang Ze said to Huai Xiu, "I'll follow Xu Hanshan."

"good."

Jiang Ze left quickly, and Changan was surprised, "Why are you monitoring Xu Hanshan?"

Huaixiu said solemnly, "He has a problem."

"What's the problem? Why didn't I see it?"

"When he came in, he had a food box in his hand. It was empty. He was obviously giving something to eat."

"What's wrong with this?"

Huai Xiu said, "There is nothing wrong. However, the situation is sensitive now and we have to rule out all possibilities, so we have to monitor him." Another thing is that Xu Hanshan seems to recognize her? How is that possible?

Huaixiu and Chang'an returned to the rental house. It was getting late and they were exhausted. However, when they saw the lights in the courtyard brightly lit, they remembered that there was an extra person in the house.

Can't wait to open the door, Aunt Luo heard the noise and immediately walked out. She was very happy to see the two of them, "You two girls are back, come in quickly, come in quickly, look at it, it's such a cold day, running around

A whole day is too hard for a young person."

There was a brazier burning in the house, and a burst of heat rushed towards my face. Huaixiu Changan was so warm that I wanted to cry.

Aunt Luo quickly poured hot tea, and there were pastries on the table. "Eat something first. The rice is ready and is being heated in the kitchen. I'll go and serve it."

Chang'an took a bite of the mung bean cake, which was as soft as a baby, and then drank a sip of hot tea, almost all the fatigue in his body was gone.

Aunt Luo was quick in everything she said and did. She quickly brought hot food, braised fish, seafood soup, steamed pork ribs, and stir-fried seasonal vegetables.

"Wow. This is so rich." Chang'an wanted to cry. However, Huaixiu frowned.

Aunt Luo served the rice and called Huaixiu, "Girl, please sit down quickly." Chang'an had already started using his chopsticks, "Aunt Luo, your craftsmanship is really good."

Huaixiu smiled and sat down, "Aunt Luo, did you spend a lot of money on this meal?"

"Not much, not much." Aunt Luo waved her hand.

Huaixiu said, "We were in a hurry today and forgot to leave food money for you." After saying that, Huaixiu took out a couple of silver coins from his pocket and handed it to Aunt Luo. Aunt Luo was embarrassed and said, "Girl, you really don't need it."

, the money has been paid..."

"Take it." Huaixiu said with a smile, "My monthly salary is three taels, plus Chang'an's, the total is six taels. Excluding the rent, Aunt Luo's salary, our daily expenses, the food money left over, and coal

The money is not much, so I won’t have to cook such rich dishes in the future, just forget it today and not next time.”

Seeing Huaixiu's seriousness, Chang'an said, "Huaixiu, what are you doing?"

But Huaixiu persisted, Chang'an sighed, and Aunt Luo had to accept the money, "I understand what you mean. Girls, eat slowly, I'll boil some hot water."

After Aunt Luo left, Changan wanted to say something else, but Huaixiu said first, "Stop talking, I have my own insistence."

"I...Huaixiu, are you thinking too much? Just treat him as your eldest brother and elder, and you want to take care of your younger generation. What's wrong with that?"

Huaixiu said, "If I really had such an elder, brother, of course I would be happy, but that's not the case. I thought you understood."

"I, actually...not..." Chang'an groaned, but when he saw Huaixiu's frown, he felt heartbroken and sad, "I understand...that's all.

, everything is up to you." He picked up a piece of fish for her and said with a smile, "Don't think so much, have a good meal today, even if you have pickles tomorrow."

Only then did Huaixiu move his chopsticks.

At this moment, Song Yuan's desk had already placed the news about Huaixiu and the others' movements today, but Song Yuan was thinking about what she said when she returned the furniture, did not take the carriage, and what she said. Lu Huiniang brought a bowl of porridge.

He came over and said, "I saw you didn't eat much at night, so I stayed up specially."

"Thanks."

Lu Huiniang glanced at the documents on the case and said, "I admire Miss Li very much. She is able to investigate the case on her own at such a young age. I believe she can investigate this case quickly and save her friend."

Song Yuandao, "It's not that simple."

"Why do you say that?"

Song Yuan shook his head, "Not sure yet, let's wait for the news."

Lu Huiniang stopped asking, "By the way, I'll go see her tomorrow and give her the clothes I've made."

"She won't accept it."

"Why?" Lu Huiniang was surprised, "Does she not like it?"

Song Yuandao said, "All the furniture delivered today was returned, and I was told that Aunt Luo would have to pay her own salary."

Lu Huiniang smiled after hearing this, "I understand her thoughts, doesn't Brother Song understand?"

Song Yuan thought for a moment, "She is overthinking."

"What about Brother Song?" Lu Huiniang asked tentatively, but she saw Song Yuan lowered his eyes and did not answer, "It's very late, you go to bed."

Lu Huiniang smiled lightly and said, "Brother Song, remember to drink porridge."

"Um."

Lu Huiniang left the study, and Xiao Huan greeted her, "Madam, are you coming out so soon? Why don't you talk to the head of the family more?"

Lu Huiniang sighed and looked up at the clear moon.

"The master of the house has a wife in his heart, and the wife should take the initiative."

"Xiaohuan, it's not like you don't know about the situation between Brother Song and I. How can I have such thoughts now?"

Xiao Huan said, "I understand what the madam is thinking. Didn't the master promise to the madam? He will definitely seek justice for the madam. Madam does not need to worry about this matter. It is her own business, so the madam must take it to heart."

, I missed Mr. Fang before, now I can’t miss the master of the family again.”

When Fang Baizhou was mentioned, Lu Huiniang was startled, and Xiaohuan asked in a low voice, "Madam, aren't you still thinking about Mr. Fang? But Mr. Fang's parents don't agree..."

"Xiaohuan, stop talking." Lu Huiniang was upset, "Master Fang and I have nothing to do with each other for a long time."
