Su Wan asked Ruan Yu and Wu Xiang to go out first with two small dumplings in their arms. She stayed in the secret room and reset the mechanism.
In this way, the door to the secret room can be opened from her room next time. There is no need to run down or go around to other places to turn on the backup switch.
In just a short time, the brothers from Ji Hua Pavilion had transported all the mahogany boxes filled with books to this yard and placed them in an orderly manner at the door of the study.
When Su Wan came out again, the courtyard had returned to calm. The little dumplings were placed on her bed, covered with thin quilts, and showed no signs of waking up.
Ruan Yu saw that there was no one in the yard. Although she knew that the house was safe, she still stayed by the two little dumplings and never left.
Su Wan walked out of the tunnel, closed the entrance door behind her, looked at the silent courtyard, and said: "The danger has not been completely eliminated now, but there can't be no helpers in the entire mansion."
"Go find Uncle Lin and tell him to arrange for the waiters in the yard and the masters and ladies working in the kitchen to come out. As for the other people who want to come out, he can make arrangements on his own."
"In addition, bring Pei Shen here. I have something to explain to him..."
Ruan Yu remembered all Su Wan's words, walked out of the main door, and hurried to where Lin Yi and the others were hiding.
As for Lin Yi, the entrance to where they were hiding was under a rockery in the garden.
That was the place where the original owner of the yard used it to hide treasures. Seeing how big the place was, after buying the house, Lin Yi and Su Wan proposed the idea of expanding it.
In fact, Lin Yi did this because he wanted to be prepared. Unexpectedly, his lady had just returned to Beijing, and this place was used...
There are nearly a hundred people hiding in the huge underground space at the moment. However, this is not a closed space. When Lin Yi found someone to expand the place, there were air holes connected to the ground.
And after the expansion here is completed, Lin Yi will come down regularly to check the situation and personally sprinkle pesticide powder to repel insects and snakes. So there is no need to worry about snakes, insects, rats and ants appearing here.
Everyone has been hiding here for almost two hours. The servants all consciously formed a circle to protect the maids and mothers-in-law. This makes some people with big hearts, or those who are really tired, feel at ease.
Fell asleep.
But as Lin Yi is the steward of the Su Mansion, the more he is at such a time, the more he cannot relax. After all, so many people are watching, and if there is even the slightest bit of comfort on his face, they will not be able to stay with peace of mind.
It's here.
At this moment, Lin Yi was sitting in the front, facing the stone gate. He closed his eyes and listened to the movement outside the stone gate.
Ruan Yu opened the stone door at the entrance of the rockery, entered and walked quickly inside, shouting "Uncle Lin" at the same time. After all, Lin Yi also has some skills. If she doesn't say anything now, she will wait for a while.
When the second stone door opens, Lin Yi may take action against her.
It was quiet inside. When everyone heard Ruan Yu's voice, they felt happy. Everyone looked at Lin Yi, waiting for his arrangement.
Lin Yi also heard the footsteps outside, and after confirming that Ruan Yu was the only one coming, he stood up. He pressed a raised stone next to the door and opened the stone door.
Ruan Yu did not rush to tell Lin Wei about Su Wan's order. Instead, he went in and scanned everyone's face, and finally landed on Pei Shen's face. She waved to him and said in a loud voice: "
Mr. Pei, the lady asked me to come find you -"
Pei Shen responded, stood up, patted the hem of his clothes, and walked towards Ruan Yu. As for what Su Wan wanted to do with him, wasn't it obvious?!
Su Wan had already made it very clear when she went to see him earlier. Now that his hand has been healed by Dr. Zhang, it is time for him to "repay the favor"...
