I made the villain right.

After Fan Yuheng walked away, Shi Jin looked at his back thoughtfully.

Seeing this, Fan Hua asked, "What did you see?"

Shi Jin's eyes turned, and he recalled what had just happened carefully, and said: "He has a good relationship with Li Muci, and the two have similar interests. He loves money, and he often gets beaten by his mother for taking money from the accountant. He is more afraid of his mother, and he should treat servants well on weekdays."

After she said this, he suddenly understood the purpose of her extreme struggle with Fan Yuheng just now.

“You are testing him”

Shi Jin nodded, "Well, I want to know if this person is trustworthy. If something goes wrong with him, all your previous work will be in vain."

He didn't expect that she still cared about this.

It was also his fault for not explaining it clearly to her.

Before he asked Fan Yuheng for help, he checked all his background.

Fan Yuheng is three years older than Li Muci, and they have a very good relationship. On the surface, he is Li Muci's cousin, but in reality they are more like friends.

He is also a man who values ​​friendship and loyalty, so if you ask him for help, you won't have to worry that he will betray Li Muci.

But the bits and pieces of information she just mentioned are also correct.

Fan Hua touched her head, smiled and praised her: "That's great, you can figure out this information in just a short while."

Shi Jin nodded, "Yes, I have sharp eyes and can see through people at a glance."

A person's character can often be seen from his words and actions.

She had just talked to him on purpose just to see if he was reliable.

After all, they asked him for help, so they had to know whether he was trustworthy.

She thinks others are okay.

Of course, it takes time to see through a person, because some people know how to pretend.

This matter concerns the survival of the Li family. Li Muci must have been cautious in entrusting him with such an important matter. I think he is trustworthy and reliable.

"I have checked all his background, he is reliable, don't worry"

When she heard this, she realized that she was worrying for nothing.

Fengyun Pavilion has a powerful intelligence network, so it is not easy to investigate a person.

Fan Yuheng must have been investigated thoroughly.

I just wonder if there is any gossip about this person?

As expected, once this person has free time, he loves to listen to gossip.

When Shi Jin thought of this, his eyes sparkled like a kitten seeing a fish.

She said with a little excitement: "Did you find out any gossip about him? Tell me about it."

Fan Hua was stunned for a few seconds when he heard this, but after he reacted, he couldn't help laughing.

The servants of the Fan Mansion were busy in the yard at this time, some were cleaning and tidying the rooms, and others were pruning flowers, plants and trees.

In contrast, it was as obvious as could be that they were standing outside the door chatting.

At this moment, the two maids who were trimming the flowers and plants were looking towards them, their eyes seemed to be exploring something.

When Fan Hua suddenly became aware of that gaze, his face changed slightly. He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, people would suspect that they were up to something.

He reminded quietly: "I'll tell you later, now we should go in"

Li Muci had long disappeared.

She was so engrossed in the conversation that she ignored him.

Shi Jin blinked and said in a slightly awkward voice: "I haven't gotten used to my role as a domestic servant yet."

After saying that, the two of them went in immediately.

Afterwards, under the guidance of a maid, she came to Li Muci.

In the pavilion beside the lotus pond, Li Muci was playing Pai Gow with his three aunts, chatting happily, with occasional bursts of hearty laughter.

When Shi Jin's eyes wandered around, he saw the person sitting on Li Muci's left, and his gaze fixed on her.

There is a beauty here!

Love to watch.

She couldn't help but admire it.

Chen Qianyue happened to look up and saw this scene.

Seeing Shi Jin looking at her openly, with no malice in his eyes but full of admiration, she was stunned for a moment.

Just now, while playing Pai Gow and chatting, she didn't notice that there were suddenly two more people in the pavilion.

Shi Jin realized that his gaze was too scorching and was afraid of making others feel uncomfortable, so he immediately shifted his gaze.

But she didn't show any anger, she just asked: "Why are there two more people?"

Hearing this, Li Muci turned his head to look at them, then turned back to explain: "Aunt, they are the slaves I brought with me."

Li Muci's aunt Chen Qianyue was in the business of selling rouge and powder. The largest rouge shop in Kyoto, "Yujunlou", was opened by her.

The rouge and powder of Yujunlou were very popular among the women in Kyoto, especially the ladies and wives of wealthy families, so Yujunlou's business was very prosperous.

Chen Qianyue has good skills and likes to study beautiful makeup on weekdays. She can dress up and select rouge for customers.

Although there are only two spots available every day, many people still come here and rush to have her do their makeup.

Therefore, among the three sisters sitting there, Chen Qianyue was the most beautifully dressed. She wore a crimson embroidered dress today, which highlighted her exquisite figure.

She had an exquisite bun on her head with several jade hairpins inserted in it, decorated with a few flowers, and two white jade bead pendants hung on her ears.

She has fair skin, beautiful facial features, and soft dimples on both sides of her cheeks, making her look gentle and lovely.

The beautiful dress and pretty face make her look even more charming.

She already has two children, both of whom are young.

She is in her early thirties but looks like she is in her twenties and is very well maintained.

Sitting on the seat to the right of Li Muci, there was a woman in a white narcissus dress. She was looking at the cards in her hand and suddenly remembered something. The next second she shared it with everyone.

"Ci'er, I've heard rumors about you in Yunshuijian, saying that you and the general's daughter were childhood sweethearts, and that you loved her but couldn't get her. You were a love rival of the Fengyun Pavilion's Pavilion Master, but in the end you became friends with him. Is that true?"

When this was said, the three protagonists in the rumor had different reactions.

Shi Jin's face froze, and he silently turned his gaze towards the culprit, with a hint of resentment in his eyes.

Fan Hua's eyes darkened when he looked at Li Muci.

Li Muci raised his eyes and met the gazes of the two men. He felt a chill on his back, his gaze dodged, and he felt guilty for a moment.

At that time, he was only concerned about his own preference and made up stories and exaggerated them. Now that he mentioned the matter under their noses, he felt guilty and embarrassed.

Finally, the awkward feeling turned into a dry laugh.

"That's all made up by others, how could Second Aunt believe it?"

Li Muci drank his tea slowly while he was in a panic.

During the silence of everyone, Chen Shuyun said casually.

"I see that many women would like to listen to this story, so I want to write it down and sell it in a bookstore, but the ending has to be changed. I will change it to Ci'er getting the beauty, and it will definitely be a big hit."

She is Li Muci’s second aunt Chen Shuyun, who runs a bookstore.

Although running a bookstore doesn't make much money, she is more quiet than other sisters and likes to read storybooks, so it suits her.

Her bookstore collected all kinds of storybooks, and most of the women who loved reading storybooks bought them from here.

At the beginning, Li Muci was so excited that he casually bought some inferior storybooks from a bookstall outside for Shi Jin to read. He regretted in his heart that he did not get some good storybooks from his second aunt.

As soon as Chen Shuyun's words spread, they exploded in the minds of the three people.

Shi Jin:!!!

This ending cannot be changed, people have to respect the facts. But if she wants to write a storybook and sell it, then does she, as the protagonist, have to ask for some appearance fee?

Fan Hua:......

He looked speechless at the moment, as if a flock of crows were flying over his head.

Li Muci seemed to be struck by lightning and almost choked on the tea he was drinking.

With a strong desire to survive, he immediately refused and said, "No, you can't do that."

Li Muci's extreme reaction attracted everyone's attention.

Aunt Chen Mengyao, who had been silent just now, suddenly started to blame: "Second sister, what you are doing is not a joke, the general's daughter and her husband are now wanted criminals in the whole city, if you write this kind of story and let someone use it, wouldn't it harm Ci'er?"

Chen Mengyao's rebuke instantly made the atmosphere serious.

Chen Shuyun was not so obsessed with money. She was just joking about using her nephew to make money.

Chen Shuyun's eyes instantly revealed a bit of grievance, as if tears were about to fall out, and she whispered: "I was just talking casually, I didn't intend to do this"

Chen Shuyun has been a little crybaby since she was young, and she is still like this even now that she has grown up, which troubles her.

Chen Qianyue was also frightened by this sudden commotion.

"Miss"

She called out somewhat timidly.

Among the three Chen sisters, Chen Mengyao has the strongest momentum. She is usually kind to others, but can be very scary when she gets angry.

The master of the Fan family has a docile personality and is dominated by his wife. Chen Mengyao is the head of the family, and the master of the Fan family dares not disobey her orders and decisions.

Chen Mengyao realized that her tone seemed a bit harsh, and her tone softened immediately: "Okay, I won't be mean to you anymore."

When Chen Shuyun saw that she was being coaxed, she held back her tears and smiled.

Chen Mengyao showed some anger on her face, and said angrily: "Who on earth is spreading this rumor? I'll catch him and beat him up!"

You searched for him everywhere, and now he is right in front of you. He is your nephew.

This funny scene made Shi Jin couldn't help but look down at his shoes, for fear that he would laugh out loud.

When Li Muci heard this, his face froze and he immediately explained.

"Don't worry about this, Auntie. I have already found the man and told him to stop spreading such rumors."

"That's good"

After finishing another round of Pai Gow, Li Muci saw that it was getting late, so he found an excuse to leave.

"I had an appointment with a friend, so I left first."

When Shi Jin saw that he was about to leave, he immediately raised his head.

"Why don't you have some snacks before leaving?" Aunt Chen Mengyao tried to persuade me to stay.

"Aunt, I'll save it for next time, otherwise I'll have no reason to come and see you," Li Muci joked.

Chen Mengyao said lovingly: "You kid"

Before leaving, Li Muci reminded again: "Aunt, Second Aunt, Little Aunt, don't forget what I told you."

Aunt Chen Mengyao: "Don't worry, I'll keep it in mind"

Second Aunt Chen Shuyun: "I know"

Aunt Chen Qianyue: "Aunt has always been protective of others and will support you"

Watching Li Muci's figure gradually walking away, Chen Mengyao couldn't help but sigh.

"In the blink of an eye, Ci'er has grown up so much. I hope my third sister will rest in peace when she sees this."

Chen Qianyue stepped forward and hugged Chen Mengyao's arm, saying softly: "I will."

Chen Shuyun leaned her head on Chen Mengyao's shoulder and said in a muffled voice: "Sister, I miss my third sister."

“I miss her too.”

Chen Mengyao sighed softly, and her eyes dimmed.

Chen Youning died of illness when Li Muci was still a child. She was afraid that he would lack his mother's company and could not enjoy the warmth and care of maternal love, so she entrusted the child to her three sisters before her death.

Over the years, the three Chen sisters treated Li Muci like their own son, caring and doting on him in every way, which made Li Muci feel very happy and satisfied.
