Wen Changheng was worried that those who followed them would make a move, but luckily nothing happened when they got off the boat and were about to go back.

Xie Jinqing fell asleep a long time ago, laying on Xie Lingbai's shoulders, mumbling a few words about duckling lanterns from time to time, Xie Lingbai felt that it was lucky that he fell asleep, otherwise he would have to buy lanterns for him now.

Wei Ming probably went back for a while, because after a short while they reached the shore, they saw him standing there waiting, with the carriage from the Wen residence beside him.

"Wei Ming, you are so caring. I was too tired to walk back with this kid in my arms."

Xie Lingbai carried Xie Jinqing into the carriage first, followed by Wen Changheng. After they sat down, Wei Ming sat on the shaft of the carriage and drove the carriage back home.

After arriving at the Wen residence, Wen Changheng and Wei Ming went to the study room, Xie Lingbai carried Xie Jinqing back to the room, and the maid lit the candles in the room when she heard them coming back.

"Little Duck Lantern—"

Xie Jinqing opened his eyes and said in a daze, Xie Lingbai said twice: "You still remember it, don't you? It's a pity, you woke up a bit late, we have already arrived at the house."

"But didn't you buy that?"

Xie Jinqing pointed to the things on the table and asked, Xie Lingbai looked over with some doubts, and was surprised to find that there was actually a little duck lantern on the table.

"Um, I didn't buy it, could it be the master? No, I didn't see the master buying it along the way."

Xie Lingbai murmured, Xie Jinqing broke free and walked to the table with some joy, picked up the little duck lantern and looked at it, and then found that there was a brocade box on the table.

He put down the lantern and opened the brocade box, only to see several jade carvings in the brocade box, which happened to be the twelve zodiac signs, each of which was exquisitely carved and lifelike.

"so beautiful……"

Xie Jinqing happily took it out to have a look, Xie Lingbai asked Xiaorui: "Who brought these?"

"The servants don't know, the door has been closed, and the servants just came in to light candles when they heard you came back, and no one came during that time."

"It must be Brother Wancheng, but how did he know that I want duckling lanterns..."

Xie Lingbai was a little surprised, but when he thought about it carefully, it seemed that no one else could enter the heavily guarded Wen Mansion so quietly except Wan Qijun.

He walked over to have a look at the jade carvings, these jades are all very valuable, that guy is really willing to give them away, how much will it cost.

"Xiao Jin, that Wan Qijun is so rich, if these things are taken to the pawn shop, they will be worth a lot of bank notes."

Xie Jinqing quickly put the brocade box in his arms and replied, "Don't pawn it, these are my presents, brother, you can't take them without my permission."

"Look at your stinginess, I'm just talking casually, but when we are short of money someday, we can still consider it."

Xie Jinqing's little face was twisted together, how could such a money-greedy brother be put on the table, it seems that these things should be hidden on weekdays, so as not to be taken to a pawnshop and exchanged for bank notes one day.

"It seems that Wan Qijun's aesthetics is similar to yours. He actually buys duckling lanterns. Tsk tsk tsk, no wonder you can become friends. It's probably called similarities."

"Hmph, it's because of your bad eyesight, how cute the duckling is, brother, let's raise..."

"Stop it, Xie Jinqing, if you want to raise ducks, you can cook them in a pot when they grow up."

Xie Jinqing: "..." Then forget it.

"Okay, wash up and go to sleep."

"Brother Wancheng didn't wait for me to come back before leaving. Anyway, he talked. It's all your fault. You have to drag me to the street to play."

"Bah, who played the most vigorously just now, the little bastard has no conscience at all."

A few maidservants brought in the washing water and asked Xie Lingbai, "Is Madam washing here too?"

"Brother, go to sleep with Boss Wen, I don't want to share a room with you."

"Get out, I'm going to sleep here tonight."

In fact, Xie Lingbai mainly felt that it would be too dangerous to leave Xie Jinqing here alone in case Wan Qijun left and returned later.

But since so many hidden guards in the mansion can't stop him, it's useless for Xie Lingbai to stay here, but at least he can know immediately, unlike last time.

Xie Lingbai couldn't figure it out, what kind of tricks is this number one killer playing?He really gave Xiao Jin a birthday present, and he was so generous when he made the move, didn't he have any intention?

In the study, Wei Ming briefly reported on the situation tonight. After hearing this, Wen Changheng asked in surprise, "You mean, someone stepped in to help?"

"Yes, before the subordinates did anything, all the people sent by the other party were eliminated. It seems that the technique was done by the same person, and the martial arts are extremely high."

"How many people are there?"

"What my subordinates saw was 15 people."

"One person solved fifteen people in the shortest time."

Wen Changheng could only think of Wan Qijun whom he had seen last time.In other words, Wan Qijun followed them at that time, but why did Wan Qijun help?

What an unpredictable person.

"You go down first, the guards in the mansion must not relax."

"Yes, by the way, when I went back to the mansion to pick up the carriage, I heard from other hidden guards that someone from the mansion seemed to have broken in, but the other party seemed to have no malicious intentions."

"Where did you break in?"

"Second Young Master Xie's room, put down two things and left, a brocade box and a lantern, the other party's lightness kung fu is excellent, if it wasn't for the concentration of hidden guards in Second Young Master Xie's courtyard, it would be hard to notice, but in the blink of an eye, and disappeared."

Wan Qijun really came to give gifts, and helped solve some troubles along the way. After kidnapping Xie Jinqing, what happened to change his attitude?

On the other side of the Yun Mansion, Yun Molian was not only drunk, but also brought Shangxue back to the mansion. Gu Fan helped him into the room, and he said to Gu Fan: "Okay, you go down first. Don't disturb this young master's good business."

As he spoke, he waved towards Shangxue, and Shangxue came forward to support him, saying: "Uncle Yun, don't worry, you can go and accompany Second Miss, it's fine to leave this place to the slave family."

"Appreciate the snow and enjoy the incense."

Yun Mo leaned over and kissed Shangxue's face, Shangxue didn't dodge, but looked at Gu Fan with some doubts when he saw that he didn't move, and asked, "Is there something else, my lord?"

Gu Fan looked at Yun Molian who couldn't wait to embrace the snow, and Yun Molian said impatiently: "Why are you so blind? Get out, or do you want to watch from the side? My young master doesn't have that A hobby of being watched."

Gu Fan withdrew his gaze, turned around and left the room, paused at the door, and then reached out to close the door for them, then went to the small kitchen in the yard.

"What are you doing in the kitchen so late? Are you hungry?"

Seeing Gu Fan in the kitchen, the servant girl asked suspiciously. Gu Fan shook his head with a smile and said, "No, I'll take a look casually. It's late, you guys go down and rest first."

"Yes……"

After the maid left, Gu Fan sat alone in the kitchen for a while, then got up and started to make hangover soup. By the way, he also stewed some porridge on the stove.

It took about half an hour (an hour) to wait for everything to be ready, and then put them in a pot to warm them up, then left the kitchen and returned to the yard in front of Yun Molian's house to sit on a stone bench.

It was around midnight when the door opened. Gu Fan stood up and looked over. The one who came out was Shangxue, wearing a cloak, and that cloak was Yun Molian's.

Shangxue also saw Gu Fan in the yard, he was stunned for a moment and said in surprise, "Uncle Yun? What are you doing sitting in the yard in the middle of the night?"

"Oh, I can't sleep, come out to get some air."

"Huh? Come here to breathe?"

"Because the two courtyards are connected, the angle of the moon is better from this side, so..."

Shangxue looked at the Crescent Gate next to the yard, and it seemed that that was the yard where the second miss of the Yun family lived, she nodded, and then asked Gu Fan with some embarrassment: "Excuse me, is there still food in the kitchen?" What? Young Master Yun said he was hungry."

"You wait, I'll get it."

Gu Fan went to the kitchen and took a serving plate first, put the hangover soup and porridge on the serving plate, put a spoon on it and carried it back to the door of the room.

"Big families are different. There is still hot food in the kitchen in the middle of the night."

Shangxue sighed, stretched out to pick it up, Gu Fan hesitated and said: "Let me help you carry it in, it's a bit heavy."

"Thank you, uncle."

Appreciating the snow entered the room, Gu Fan followed behind with a pan, Yun Molian was lying on the bed, there were some kisses/scars on the exposed shoulders and collarbone, Gu Fan tried his best to ignore those, and said softly: "Master, first Drink sober soup and then porridge."

Yun Molian opened his eyes and took a look, then sat up and leaned against the head of the bed, feeling a little cold so he shrunk his shoulders, Gu Fan put down the tray and took the clothes hanging aside to cover him.

"What, it smells so bad, don't drink it."

"It's sweet, you have a taste."

"The pitch-black one looks like concoction, how could it be sweet."

"You will know after a taste, I will not lie to you."

Gu Fan scooped up a spoonful and handed it to his mouth. Yun Mo frowned and tasted it, only to find that the brows were really sweet, and he didn't bother to stretch out his hand when someone fed him.

Standing aside, Shangxue was a little embarrassed, always feeling that something was wrong with the situation in front of him, this new son-in-law of the Yun family seemed to be on good terms with Young Master Yun.

"White porridge?"

"Salty porridge with shredded pork."

Yun Molian tasted it and found that the taste was quite good, so he didn't dislike anything, Shangxue smiled and said: "Young Master Yun, my uncle is really kind to you, some brothers may not have such good feelings .”

Yun Mo's mind was still not sober, and upon hearing this, she looked towards Shangxue and shouted, "Shangxue, why are you standing so far away? You come to feed me."

"Yes……"

When Shangxue came over, Gu Fan paused holding the spoon, stood up and handed the bowl and spoon to Shangxue, after Shangxue sat down, Yun Mo looked at Gu Fan, frowned and said, "Why are you holding the stick?" ? Get out."

Gu Fan turned and left the room, Shangxue said: "Why is Young Master Yun so cruel to my uncle? I see that my uncle treats you really well."

"Cut, I'm not rare, young master."

Gu Fan at the door pursed his lips, and went back to his room silently.

"It's so hot, you want to burn Master Ben to death."

Shangxue was taken aback, and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, Young Master Yun, I'll blow it off."

She blew the porridge to cool down before feeding it to Yun Molian, but Yun Molian said with disgust, "It's so cold..."

Shangxue was a little helpless, alas, this eldest young master is really difficult to serve, just now seeing Gu Fan's handy appearance, he thought it would not be difficult.
