The Rebirth of Han Yuxi - Chapter 36

[Chapter 36 Murderers (3)]

On the day of the Lantern Festival, Yuxi searched for Han Jianye just after lunch, urging her to go out early.

Han Jianye couldn’t help laughing and said: “You are too anxious, it’s only noon, and there are still several hours before the evening! It’s not too late to go after dinner.”

Yuxi pulled Han Jianye’s sleeve and said, “Second brother, I’m also idle at home. I want to go to Shangyuan Street to see Fang’s mother first, and give her something by the way.”

Han Jianye looked at Yuxi and looked at her eagerly, as if you didn’t agree and I would cry to show you, there’s nothing wrong with it: “It only takes more than an hour to go from Shangyuan Street to Huadengcheng River, and it’s too early to go now. already.”

Oak Xi naturally calculated the time: “After seeing Fang’s mother, I want to go to the bookstore to buy two books.”

Han Jianming didn’t understand: “What book do you want to buy, tell me, and I’ll buy it for you.”

Yuxi shook his head and said, “Second brother, you have to go up the mountain tomorrow. It is estimated that you won’t be able to come back until the Dragon Boat Festival next time. Second brother, it’s fine today, so if you go out earlier, there will be no delay. Second brother, just promise me!”

Han Jianye didn’t withdraw from acting like a spoiled child and tears, and immediately lost: “Okay, I’ll go and tell big brother.”

Han Jianming happened to be going to buy a few books, so he nodded and said: “Yes. Let Jianye take you to Shangyuan Street, and I will wait for you at the bookstore.” He happened to know that there was a bookstore that would not close even on Lantern Festival.

Mother Fang was startled when she saw Yuxi and Han Jianye, and hurriedly greeted the two of them before inviting everyone into the house.

Oak-hee saw that the store was completely different from her first time. A shed was built in front of it, and there were six small tables and chairs on the pavement. These tables and chairs were clean and free of dust.

Yuxi smiled and said, “Second brother, I’ll go to the backyard to take a look.” Hong Shan and Mo Ju, two maids, followed behind with two packages.

The small yard has also changed a lot. There are sheds on the left and right sides, piles of firewood are placed on the left, and a stove is built on the right. There are more than a dozen steamers on it.

Oak-hee didn’t go into the kitchen, but into Fang’s mother’s bedroom. Looking at the simple layout of the room, Yuxi’s eyes were astringent: “Mom, you are suffering.” Dozens of taels of silver a month are not so easy to earn.

Fang’s mother smiled and said: “It’s not hard, I have something to do every day, I feel full of energy!” Every day here, I have to get up early every day to chop stuffing and buns. It is definitely more difficult than working in the house. Just doing things freely here, not worrying that doing the wrong thing will implicate the girl, and when she thinks that she is making money for the girl, she feels that it is very meaningful to do this.

Yuxi pondered that when she sold the ointment recipe and bought the property, she would not let Fang’s mother do such hard work again.

Mother Fang called Madam An in and said, “Miss An, this is Madam An. She does the heavy work of chopping wood and fetching water in the shop, and she also sells the buns every morning.” Steamed buns and other things, and selling buns outside to greet guests are all things that Mrs. An is doing. Mrs. An is tall and tall, and her physique is no problem for two men. Of course, this is also the reason why Xiangyang took a fancy to her in the first place.

Oak Xi rewarded Mrs. An with a red envelope and raised Mrs. An’s monthly money from six hundred cents to one tael of silver.

Mrs. An knelt on the ground and said gratefully, “Thank you for your grace.” With money, she can better inquire about her family.

Oak-hee didn’t stay long at Baozipu, and left within two quarters of an hour.

A police officer surnamed Huang who happened to arrive on this street saw a carriage parked in front of Baozipu. The red-lacquered carriage could only be used by powerful families. He hurriedly asked the boss beside him: “What’s the origin of this bun shop, so there will be noble people coming?”

The boss smiled and said, “The proprietress of this steamed bun has a lot of background. I heard that she used to work in the government office. No one dares to mess with it on this street.”

Just as he was talking, the yamen surnamed Huang saw a young man in brocade clothes coming out, followed by a female doll that looked like a New Year’s picture.

Oak Xi followed Han Jianye to a bookstore on Shangyuan Street. As soon as he entered the bookstore, he saw Yun Qing and Jiang Hongfu coming out.

Yun Qing saw Yu Xi who was white and tender at a glance, and wanted to go forward and give her a squeeze. Not only did he think so, he did it.

When Yuxi saw Yunqing pinching her face, she was dumbfounded. What could be more scary than that the murderous king of the previous life pinched her face!

Han Jianye responded quickly, came over and patted Yunqing’s hand away, then pulled Yuxi to look left and right, and said, “She’s very smart at home, how come you’re stupid when you go out?” The face was stupidly motionless.

Oak Xi reacted, shuddered, and hurriedly hugged Han Jianye. Can you be afraid? It is said that she died in Yun Qing’s hands, tens of thousands, so a pair of blood-stained hands pinched her face, Yu Xi shivered again thinking of this.

Seeing that Yun Qing touched his face, he said to Jiang Hongfu, “Cousin, am I so scary?”

Jiang Hongfu said helplessly, “Aren’t you scary?”

Yun Qing felt that Yu Xi’s courage was too small, and he was so frightened by pinching his face that he was useless. But in the end it was he who scared people, and he still needs to apologize. Yun Qing untied the Liuyun Baifu jade pendant from his waist, handed it to Han Jianming, and said, “This time it’s my fault, I won’t do it next time. This is my apology to my cousin.” He felt that Yuxi was very cute, I wanted to pinch it, but I didn’t expect it to frighten people.

Han Jianye didn’t take the jade pendant, and said dissatisfiedly: “Don’t make such a joke next time.” No matter how carefree he is, he also knows that the girl’s face can’t be pinched casually. Fortunately, Yuxi is young, otherwise he will The reputation was ruined by Yunqing.

Jiang Hongfu looked at Han Jianye’s expression and immediately explained: “Cousin Ming, don’t get me wrong, my cousin has always regretted that my aunt didn’t give her a sister! So seeing the white and fat cousin Xi is a bit over the top.”

Jiang Hongfu’s words made Yuxi embarrassed. Unexpectedly, the murderer really likes the chubby little girl, which makes her feel disillusioned.

Han Jianye said: “I hope there will be no next time.”

Yun Qing said embarrassingly, “Never again.”

After apologizing, the two brothers left. After the people left, Han Jianye patted Yuxi’s head and scolded with a smile, “Why is it so useless? Just squeeze your face to be scared like this?”

Oak Hee muttered, “He’s just scary!” She didn’t faint, she was already very powerful, okay?

The two were talking when Han Jianming walked out.

Han Jianming knew about the episode he just discovered, and said with a smile, “The Yun family are all big men, and they don’t have girls, so girls are rare in their family.” Han Jianming knew about Yunqing’s fault. However, Han Jianming knew that Yun Qing was a measured person, so he was not angry.

Yuxi asked curiously, “Isn’t Jiang Hongfu’s biological mother a girl from the Yun family?” These words are inconsistent!

Han Jianming smiled and shook his head: “Jiang Hongfu’s biological mother is not General Yun’s biological daughter, but an adopted daughter, but General Yun treats her like his biological daughter.”

Oak-hee didn’t think there was such a thing.

Han Jianye was not very interested in these things and said, “Fourth sister, don’t you want to buy books? There are many kinds of books here, you can choose them yourself.”

Oak-hee went to pick out books. After searching for a long time, she could not find the medical book she wanted. There are no medical books in such a big bookstore.

Seeing Yuxi’s disappointment, Han Jianming asked with a smile, “What other books do you want?” At first glance, he knew that there was no suitable medical book.

Yuxi shook her head and said, “It’s nothing.” There were some things she could tell her second brother, but she couldn’t tell her eldest brother. Don’t look at the second brother’s carelessness on weekdays, but he is very loyal, as long as he promises things, he will never tell others.

Seeing Yuxi, Han Jianming didn’t say anything or force him, he just said with a smile: “Other bookstores in the capital are closed at this time, and this one is not closed all year round. If you haven’t bought the book you like, wait for the next time you have a holiday. I will take you to Songyun Pavilion to see, and you should be able to buy the books you want there.” Songyun Pavilion is the largest bookstore in the capital, and the books in it are all-encompassing and have everything. It’s just that it’s Lantern Festival now, and Songjun Pavilion is closing.

Oak-hee laughed until her teeth were bared: “Okay.”

After dinner, it was already dark. When I left the restaurant, I saw lanterns of various colors hung on the street, which were very beautiful.

Han Jianming has participated several times and is familiar with the place. He took the group to the place where the lanterns were sold. The Lantern Festival has a special feature. As long as you guess the riddle on the lantern, you can take the lantern away without paying.

A group of people found a stall selling lanterns. There are also restrictions on guessing riddles. Each person can only guess twice. If you guess wrong, you will lose your chance. Han Jianming guessed two riddles and guessed one correctly. As for Han Jianye, his family knew about his own affairs, so he was a spectator.

Oak-hee wanted to give it a try. She looked at the lanterns hanging high, the most beautiful ones swept away, because this was the hardest. Yuxi looked at it for a long time, pointed to a lantern with a small rabbit painted on it, and said, “The answer to this mystery is mysterious and mysterious.”

The stall owner looked at Yuxi with admiration: “The little girl is so smart.” After speaking, he took off the lantern and handed it to Yuxi.

The workmanship of this little bunny lantern is not very delicate, but Oak-hee likes it.
