The sky is slightly white.

Chu Huanyan and Yun Chen drove to the city by car.

Yun Chen's wound stopped bleeding, but the dark red scab and blood stains still looked a bit scary.

Chu Huanyan proposed to drive by herself, but Yun Chen refused without hesitation, saying that he could do it with one hand.

All the way back to the Hou Mansion, Xian Yue, who had not slept all night, was relieved to see the two of them returning safely, but was shocked when she saw Yunchen's bandaged wrist.

"What's going on here?"

"I accidentally paddled it while driving." Yun Chen replied calmly, but his peripheral vision only fell on Chu Huanyan.

"Xianyue, go ask the elder...that's all, go find some gold sore medicine and gauze."

If he had asked a doctor, he would have been able to tell at a glance that the injury was deliberately inflicted by Yunchen himself.

"Yes." Xian Yue responded and quickly went to get the medicine.

Chu Huanyan asked Xian Yue to bring hot water again. She cleaned and applied medicine to Yunchen's wound and bandaged it again.

During the whole process, Yun Chen remained silent and just looked at Chu Huanyan quietly, as if the horrific wound was not on his wrist at all.

After the bandaging was finished and the things were put away, the boy guarding the door came with news, saying that someone from the Zhou family had sent the news. Chu Wanyan suddenly fell ill and was bedridden. I hope Chu Huanyan could go and take a look today. .

"Miss, I'll go with you." Yun Chen said.

"No, you stay at home and recuperate. Just go with Xian Yue." Chu Huanyan shook her head and said.

The crescent moon responded quickly.

Both times, Yunchen accompanied the young lady when she went out. If this continues, the young lady might only take Yunchen with her every time she goes out in the future. This is not okay!

Yun Chen looked at Chu Huanyan in a daze, his mind filled with what he just said about home.

Home?

The lady was talking to him about home.

There seemed to be a hole in Yun Chen's chest, but it didn't hurt or itch. The warm wind blew into his internal organs through the hole, making his whole body warm.

It was already past noon when Chu Huanyan arrived at Zhou's house.

Before setting off, she handed the beaded flower to a trusted servant in the house and asked him to check it out.

Mother Zhou seemed to have been waiting at home for a long time. When she saw Chu Huanyan appearing at the door, she hurriedly greeted her and enthusiastically welcomed her into Chu Wanyan's room.

Compared with the last time they met, Chu Wanyan was obviously more embarrassed. Her face, which was always well-groomed on weekdays, was now unpainted, her eyes were dark, and she was lying on the bed wearing a Chinese coat.

At first glance, he really looked like he was sick.

"Wanyan, your sister is here to see you!" Mother Zhou's words made Chu Wanyan tremble, then she came back to her senses and turned to look at Chu Huanyan.

"Elder sister, you are finally here!" Chu Wanyan's voice was filled with tears.

"What's going on? How could someone so good be sick?" Chu Huanyan pretended to be concerned, walked to the bed and sat down, looking at Chu Wanyan carefully.

He looked like he was frightened. Is it related to Pearl's death?

"Sister, I suddenly felt unwell, and then, my family didn't have enough money to see a doctor. You..."

"Wan Yan, your sister has just arrived. You two sisters haven't seen each other for a while. Let's catch up on old times and don't talk about money or not. Don't worry, Xiu Wen will find a way." Zhou's mother interrupted with a kind face. He heard Chu Wanyan's words.

Chu Huanyan raised her eyebrows. Mother Zhou actually refused to let Chu Wanyan ask for money from her. The sun was really shining in the west.

Chu Wanyan glanced at Zhou's mother, and the next moment, she nodded obediently, "Okay, I understand."

"You guys talk slowly and I'll get you some tea." Mother Zhou said with a smile.

Chu Huanyan raised her eyebrows, "Xianyue, go and do a favor for your aunt."

"No, no, I'm just pouring tea." Zhou's mother quickly refused.

"Auntie, you're welcome. You are an elder, so how can I help you to pour me tea?" Chu Huanyan glanced at Xian Yue, who quickly walked to Mother Zhou's side.

"You lead the way, and your servant will pour you tea."

"Okay, if that's the case, then I'm welcome." The Zhou family smiled and nodded, signaling Xianyue to follow him to the kitchen.

"Sister, how are you lately?" After the two left, Chu Wanyan asked with a little smile.

"Not bad." Chu Huanyan nodded, thinking about why the Zhou family's attitude suddenly changed, and said, "I heard that Zhu'er died. What's going on?"

Chu Wanyan's face suddenly tightened, "She, she, she just accidentally fell into the well."

"Really?" Chu Huanyan stared at Chu Wanyan's face, "But the well in your yard is not big, so it might not be easy to fall into it."

"Elder sister, what do you mean by this? Don't you believe me?" Chu Wanyan immediately raised her head and her tone was sharp.

This reaction made Chu Huanyan more and more sure of her previous guess.

Turning her eyes, she said: "How could I not believe you? It's just that I heard..."

"What did you hear?" Chu Wanyan asked.

"It's nothing, but Zhu'er used to be a maid in the Hou Mansion after all, so I sent someone to the Yamen to ask about it this morning. I heard that the body had been parked in Yizhuang, but someone seemed to think there was something fishy about this matter, and now it is I'm making preparations to re-examine the autopsy."

"What?" Chu Wanyan's expression suddenly changed, "Didn't I say that the people over at the Yamen won't care!"

After saying that, he suddenly realized that his tone was wrong and hurriedly explained.

"What I mean is that it was an accidental drowning. There is nothing to investigate. Moreover, the people from the Yamen have already checked and said there is nothing wrong. Why is it that everything is fine and suddenly a new autopsy is required."

Chu Wanyan tried her best to maintain a normal expression, but the nervousness in her eyes still exposed her.

Chu Huanyan frowned in her heart. Zhu'er's death must have something to do with Chu Wanyan.

However, what is the purpose of Chu Wanyan coming to him today?

Chu Huanyan was puzzled for a moment.

Just as he was about to continue speaking, Zhou's mother and Xianyue had walked in again.

"Sister Wanyan, we don't have anything to entertain at home. Please have a sip of tea first." Zhou's mother's attitude was still too good.

Xianyue held the teacup and handed it to Chu Huanyan.

Chu Huanyan took the teacup and glanced between Zhou's mother and Chu Wanyan.

"Auntie, the main reason I came here today is to see Wan Yan. There is something else going on in the house. If..."

"Don't leave in a hurry." Mother Zhou quickly interrupted Chu Huanyan and winked at Chu Wanyan, "Wanyan, didn't you say you missed your sister? Let's talk more."

"I..." Chu Wanyan wanted to speak, but for a moment, she didn't seem to know what to say.

Mother Zhou glared at her secretly, smiled again, and said to Chu Huanyan: "Sister Wanyan, you only have a sister like Wanyan. It can be seen that you have a good relationship, so if there is something good that can be done to this sister, You shouldn’t not do it.”
