Seven years ago in Qingzhou, a fire engulfed the Yun family. The century-old Yun family died in a fire. More than 100 people in the whole house died overnight. The smell of the fire after it was extinguished, and the smell of burnt corpses.

No one knew who set the fire, and even the government couldn't find any clues, but everyone believed that the offended enemies of the Yun family must have come to seek revenge.

But this method of revenge is too ruthless, even the old woman and the baby are not spared. It is not just who did the crime.

It's a pity that seven years have passed, and this case has also been dusted in the archives of the government office, and no one is going to pursue it.

Hua Manlou stood by the window, thinking of what Yuncheng said yesterday, he felt a little uneasy, there was something strange about it, but when they were investigating the case back then, apart from receiving a letter from old owner Yun, the item mentioned in the letter had internal and external implications. , and no other clues.

The Yun Family Manor has an internal response, but it was only discovered after many years in the Yun Family. It seems that it is not easy to investigate now.

"What time is it? Are you still asleep?" Bai Feifei walked behind Huamanlou wearing a piece of clothing, and put a piece of clothing on him, "Still thinking about the Yun family?"

"Why did you wake up?"

Hua Manlou turned around and grabbed the clothes on his body, "I'm really thinking about the Yun family. Although we didn't cause this matter, since I agreed to the master Yun's investigation back then, I should have been investigating it all the time. It's a pity that after so many years, there is still nothing. I found out that if I hadn't seen Yuncheng, I wouldn't want to think about it."

Looking up at Huamanlou, under the moonlight, Huamanlou looked more serious than usual, "There will always be clues. Since the descendants of the Yun family show up, we will always find the people behind."

"kindness."

Knowing that Hua Manlou is a person who values ​​love and righteousness, and is not cold and paranoid like her, she shook her head and said, "You stand here, how can I sleep peacefully by myself."

Hearing this, Hua Manlou was dazed for a moment before he understood the meaning of Bai Feifei's words. He smiled and took her hand, "It's because I didn't think carefully, which made Madam worry."

There is a tacit understanding between the two, and they have experienced so many things, big and small, if they still don't understand what is in each other's hearts, how can they cultivate the relationship between husband and wife.

Huamanlou woke up early in the morning and went to the garden to practice swords, Bai Feifei woke up later, and it was time for breakfast after washing up.

Seeing Huarui coming in with breakfast, leaving without saying a word, Bai Feifei couldn't help laughing, he didn't know whether to say that he scared Huarui yesterday or Huarui's temper is not small, and she even got into a quarrel with her. Baihualou has such a master-servant relationship.

Seeing a small figure at the door, Bai Feifei beckoned, "I'll take you to the private school to meet the master later, would you like to go?"

"Sister Bai, can I really go to a private school?"

"Your seventh brother has already agreed, and since he agreed to this matter, he will not change his mind, not to mention that you have reached the age where you should learn to read and write." Bai Feifei stretched out his hand to straighten Niuniu's clothes, "Can I give you a new name? "

"Listen to sister Bai."

Hua Manlou, who walked in, heard what the two said, and said with a smile: "Then you have thought about it, what name should you choose?"

Hearing the sound, Bai Feifei looked at Huamanlou, saw that his forehead was still sweaty, got up and walked to him with a handkerchief, "I can't think of a name, why don't you think about it."

"Pingting stands here, her last name is Bai."

I had already guessed that Huamanlou would let Niuniu follow her surname, but when I heard it, I still couldn't help but feel that Huamanlou's meticulousness is even more incomparable to women.

Looking at Niuniu with a smile, "Pingting, do you remember?"

"Pingting? From now on, I want to be like Sister Bai, protect those I want to protect, be a hero, and be a heroine!" Pingting looked at Bai Feifei with admiration, "Sister Bai, Brother Seven, in the future, you can Teach me how to practice martial arts? Only in this way can I protect myself."

It can't be seen that the little girl is quite ambitious and knows how to protect herself instead of relying on others to protect her.

He stretched out his hand and flicked his forehead, "I'll teach you martial arts when you get the compliment from your husband."

Hua Manlou went to the inner room to change clothes and came out. The older one and the younger one were already sitting at the table eating, shaking their heads helplessly—they didn't have any children yet, so why did they become parents first.

Since I am going to a private school, it is essential to give my husband something.

"Young Master, Young Madam, this is the first-class inkstone that has been prepared." Hua Ping handed the things forward, "Master, is this square inkstone enough? I see that many people have sent a lot of things. "

Hua Manlou shook his head, holding the gift box, "Mr. Private School is a scholar, if you give too many gifts, it will tarnish the reputation of a scholar, not to mention this square inkstone is already hard to find, why add anything else. "

Hua Ping made the same reasoning when he heard it, and nodded, "Then the young master and the young lady are careful all the way, come back earlier, Hua Rui is preparing tonight's dishes in the kitchen, saying it is for Niu Niu's first day of school to celebrate."

Hearing this, Bai Feifei looked in, but Hua Rui was nowhere to be seen, "Go and help in the kitchen, we will send Niuniu to the private school and then come back."

"Yes, young lady."

Is this pistil really awkward?

Coming out of Baihualou, Bai Feifei led Pingting and walked beside Huamanlou, and couldn't help but said, "Say, should I talk to Huarui?"

"No, it's also common to indulge her too much."

"It's not like you said that in Baihualou, they are all from our own people." Bai Feifei was a little surprised that Huamanlou would say that. She could see clearly what was going on in Baihualou when she first came.

A master is not like a master, and a servant is not like a servant.Huarui and Huaping have lived in Baihualou for a long time, and they have been in love with Huamanlou for many years even though they are masters and servants. Huamanlou rarely blames them, why this time——

Hua Manlou shook his head, "It's not about putting on airs of the master, but about Hua Rui going on like this. If she leaves Baihualou, she will be said to be arrogant and unreasonable, and she will always suffer. She is already at the age of marriage. , I will get married sooner or later, and if I have such a temper in my husband's house, I will suffer a lot."

So it was like this, Hua Manlou thought further than her.

He couldn't help laughing, and said with a smile: "Young master, you still have to arrange marriages for the servant girls, but... Hua Rui and Hua Ping are just together, so you don't have to leave Baihualou, and it will be the same as before."

"Huaping can't stay with me forever."

Bai Feifei was stunned, put away his joke, and nodded.

Pingting looked at Bai Feifei's sudden change of expression, and looked up at her, "Sister Bai, I will always be with you, and when I grow up, I will protect you."

The grace of saving life should be repaid in a lifetime.

She was sold in the past, if Bai Feifei hadn't saved her life, she might be working as a maid in a certain place right now, asking for a laborer, or even worse, she would be sold to the Goulan courtyard to work for others.

Although she is young, she knows how to repay her kindness. Bai Feifei saved her that day. In her eyes, Bai Feifei is a living Bodhisattva who helps the world and saves people.

"You're a flattering little girl, but I don't like that. If you teach me a lesson in private school, you will be punished." Bai Feifei recovered and looked at Pingting, "Even he can't save you. .”

"Brother Seven won't leave me alone, and Sister Bai has a bean curd heart and a knife mouth, so she doesn't want to part with it."

Knife mouth tofu heart?Bai Feifei felt amused.When did she become a person with a sharp mouth and a tofu heart? Her heart was hard before, but now she just learned how to get along with others.

Where does the tofu heart come from?

"Mr. Lin used to be a Jinshi, and now he runs a private school in Yangzhou City, which only admits fifteen students a year, and only then did he inquire about two vacancies this year, and if he doesn't like it, no matter how big the favor is, he won't sell it."

He had some friendship with Lin Ran in the past, so he got this favor. He only said to take Pingting over to have a look, and only accept it if he has good qualifications and he likes it, otherwise he can only find another place.

Hearing this, Bai Feifei was stunned, "Is there still such a rule?"

"Brother Seven, would you ask about the articles in those books? But I have never read them, and I don't know how to read them. I'm afraid—"

"Don't worry, he won't ask these questions. He and I have already talked about your situation, and they probably asked some other questions." Hua Manlou heard Pingting's worry, and comforted him, "You can answer truthfully, remember, Don't lie in front of him to be good, he doesn't like students lying."

"kindness!"

The three of them who were going out at ease were now nervous, and Bai Feifei looked at her nervously and cautiously and blamed her.

This should not be said, but it seems that there is nothing wrong with preparing in advance.

"how?"

"Is it coming?"

"It's not far ahead."

Looking ahead, he saw that there was indeed a courtyard with white walls and black tiles. It looked like an elegant place, so he subconsciously held Pingting's hand tightly.

Hua Manlou sensed the different nervousness of the two, and smiled and pulled Bai Feifei forward, "You don't seem to be nervous at all when facing killers and enemies, what's going on now?"

"When a scholar meets a soldier, there is no reason to explain it. When a soldier meets a scholar, he has nowhere to use his strength. He punches cotton and angers himself."

From Hua Manlou's description, Bai Feifei can roughly guess what kind of person this Mr. Lin is, and she avoids dealing with this kind of person the most.

When they walked to the gate of the private school, the young man at the gate hurriedly led them in, "Young Master, Mr. was waiting for you early in the morning, and it's just after breakfast time, so it's just in time."

"Excuse me, I don't know how your husband is doing recently?"

"I caught wind and cold a few days ago, and it's already fine."

"kindness."

After going around several corridors to the backyard, the servant led them to the front hall and then turned to get tea.Hua Manlou walked in, bowing his hands and saluting, "I haven't seen you for a long time, but I came to disturb you suddenly, please don't blame me, sir."

Lin Ran got up to support her, and said with a smile, "You haven't been here for almost three months. I heard that you are married, and the wedding gift hasn't been given to you yet. I will definitely come to make amends someday."

Looking at Bai Feifei and Pingting, she was a little surprised, seeing Bai Feifei in a simple and elegant skirt, with a beautiful and elegant face, "This must be Qitong's newlywed wife?"

"Feifei has met Mr. Lin, Pingting, and she hasn't called yet."

"...Pingting pays her respects, sir."

Hua Manlou sat down with Mr. Lin, and this time he came back to ask for favors, so he was not as comfortable as before, but he and Lin Ran have been friends for many years, and there is no embarrassment on his face.

After thinking for a while, he said: "I got married in Jinling, and it's too late to tell you. How can I ask you to come to make amends? What's more, I have something to ask for today, and I have asked Hua Ping to tell you about it. This is Ping Ting, lonely and helpless, is now sheltered in Baihualou, and she is not young, she should be at school age, so there is brother Laulin."

Lin Ran nodded when he heard the words, he also understood that Hua Manlou was a cheerful person, and said with a smile: "Since you ask, I will help, but the rules must not be broken, just let this child stay in the private school for a day, after I observe I'll give you another message."

"That would be great."

Bai Feifei next to him glanced at Pingting, seeing her nervously shaking her hands and shaking her head - she couldn't help with this.

The two were reminiscing about the old days and chatting, Bai Feifei could only sit on the sidelines and pay attention, occasionally answering a few sentences, his mind was wandering, and he couldn't help thinking about what the name of her and Huamanlou's child should be.

When he came out of the private school, Bai Feifei didn't think about it either.

"I've been distracted, what are you thinking?"

"Some trivial things." Bai Feifei came back to his senses, and made up a reason to prevaricate - she didn't want Hua Manlou to know that she was thinking about these things when she was distracted.

Walking side by side on the street, Bai Feifei was thinking about buying some needles and thread to pass the time, but just as he was about to speak, a person fell from the nearby restaurant and landed directly on the street stall.

With a 'bang', the crowd scattered in fright.

"Be careful." Bai Feifei immediately looked towards the restaurant, seeing a figure flashing past above, his eyes dimmed—someone committed a crime in the street?In broad daylight, this is too bold.

Hua Manlou stepped forward to check the injury of the person who fell, but he couldn't feel the pulse with his fingertips, so he shook his head, "Dead."
