I Just Won’t Play by the Book

"Xiaoya, why are you always following me today?"

In the Hong Mansion, Hong Dingfeng looked back at his little sister and asked.

"Oh~ I was discovered by the big brother. In fact, today Fengxiangpu has a new batch of silk and satin. It really looks good."

Hong Dingfeng smiled and replied, "Why, Dad won't let you buy it?"

"Hey, big brother is still smart."

"You, there are so many silks and satins in the warehouse. You have to go outside to buy them. No wonder Dad doesn't agree."

"This is a new arrival, not at home."

Shaking his head helplessly, Hong Dingfeng said, "If you want money to find your second brother, I'm not rich either."

"Okay~" After a long tone, Hong Yaxuan turned around and left.

"This girl is too realistic..." Seeing the figure of Hong Yaxuan leaving decisively, Hong Dingfeng couldn't help rolling his eyes.

When Hong Dingfeng was far away, Hong Yaxuan patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

'I didn't expect to be discovered by the big brother so quickly, but I'm wise. ’

After the discussion yesterday, Jiang Beiran's only task for Hong Yaxuan was to let her go home and see what was different in her home. Don't let go of any details.

And Hong Yaxuan naturally started with the eldest brother who knew the most about the family's affairs first, but after a whole morning, he didn't see the difference between the eldest brother and usual, and even the sad face that would appear before has disappeared.

‘Has the trouble brought by the Liu family been resolved? ’

Feeling that things would not be so simple, Hong Yaxuan thought hard and decided to observe the second brother again.

At You Shi, according to the agreement, Hong Yaxuan came to the pavilion.

"Have you found anything?" Jiang Beiran, who was sitting in the gazebo, raised his head and asked Hong Yaxuan.

"I... I found out that the second brother was carrying my sister-in-law out to steal it again!"

Jiang Beiran let out a long sigh, "What else?"

"This is very serious! My sister-in-law is so virtuous, yet he still..."

Hong Yaxuan was halfway through speaking, looking at Jiang Beiran's increasingly sharp eyes, she had to slowly close her mouth and lower her head.

"I'm not interested in your housework, just get down to business."

"Oh... I followed the two brothers for a day, but I really found nothing. They were all the same as usual."

"Oh, it seems that I still overestimate you." Jiang Beiran said, looking at Luo Wenzhou who was standing beside him, "Go and call Cheng Yi."

"Yes."

Luo Wenzhou responded and walked out of the pavilion.

Not long after, Gu Qinghuan was taken to the pavilion and shouted at Jiang Beiran, "Big brother."

Hong Yaxuan had met Boss Song several times at home, and knew that even her father would greet Boss Song with a smile and treat him as a distinguished guest.

And Boss Song at this time... just like the housekeeper Zhang looked like when he saw his father.

'Who is this person so holy...' Hong Yaxuan couldn't help but glanced at Jiang Beiran again.

After explaining the matter to Gu Qinghuan in detail, Jiang Beiran looked at Hong Yaxuan and said, "Tomorrow I will let Cheng Yi go to your mansion. What you have to do is to find an empty space to stay, understand?"

"Stay in an empty space with no one? What do you mean?" Hong Yaxuan asked strangely.

Without answering Hong Yaxuan, Jiang Beiran looked at Gu Qinghuan and said, "Do you understand the plan?"

"Understood." Gu Qinghuan nodded.

'what? Plan, what plan? ’

Hong Yaxuan's face was bewildered. She had been listening in just now, but she didn't hear any plans.

"Well, go ahead and teach her what to do on the way."

"Yes." Bowing to Jiang Beiran, Gu Qinghuan left the pavilion with Hong Yaxuan, who was still in a confused state.

When Gu Qinghuan was far away, Jiang Beiran looked at Luo Wenzhou beside him and said, "You also go to Liu's house to check and see if there is anything unusual."

"Yes." Bowing his hands towards Jiang Beiran, Luo Wenzhou also walked out of the pavilion.

Sitting back at the stone table, Jiang Beiran picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Jiang Beiran's eyes widened when he placed two black stones that he had found out from nowhere on the chessboard.

'What kind of turbulence can these two forces cause...'

Then Jiang Beiran kept dropping several black stones on the chessboard.

"The first time I came to Lanzhou, I was involved in the power center. If I want to break the game without injury, I am afraid I have to be more careful."

Saying that, Jiang Beiran picked up another piece of white.

"Fortunately, I have enough pieces, and I... are also very good at slow chess."

With a "da" sound, Jiang Beiran dropped Baizi away from the box.

At noon the next day, Hong Yaxuan, who had just finished her lunch, stood beside a rockery in the yard. No one would come here on weekdays, which was in line with Brother Lin Linyu's request.

‘Who is he, and why did he come to Jiyuan Town? If I ask him for help, wouldn't it be a sheep to the tiger's mouth? ’

Just when Hong Yaxuan was thinking about something, she suddenly felt a pat on the back.

Hong Yaxuan instinctively wanted to scream, but remembering what Boss Song said yesterday, she quickly covered her mouth.

Turning around, she saw Boss Song in a long gown just appearing in front of her out of thin air.

"Song... Boss Song, where did you come from?"

Yesterday, when Hong Yaxuan heard that Brother Lin Yu wanted to let Boss Song come to their house, Hong Yaxuan thought it was a very formal one.

, but only after chatting with Boss Song did he realize that he did not intend to go through the main door.

However, although she was mentally prepared, Hong Yaxuan was still a little scared when she saw Boss Song suddenly appear in front of her.

Gu Qinghuan's sudden appearance in front of Hong Yaxuan was naturally because of the wearing of the emptiness. Since the last time Jiang Beiran thought that the style of the emptiness was too simple was also a drawback, he made the emptiness into a variety of clothes. After all, the emptiness The core is the formation, not the appearance.

When Hong Yaxuan's mood stabilized a little, Gu Qinghuan asked, "Miss Hong, I don't know if your house usually spends extravagance on daily expenses?"

'Excessive waste? ’

Although Hong Yaxuan didn't understand why Boss Song suddenly asked such a question, she still answered earnestly: "No... My father often educates our brothers and sisters not to waste indiscriminately, and he is also a frugal person."

"What about meals on weekdays? Is there any misfortune?"

"Dinner?"

Hong Yaxuan frowned and thought for a moment, "I didn't pay attention to this." After speaking, she raised her finger as if she suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, Cuirong definitely knows, I'll go find her."

Soon, Hong Yaxuan dragged Qin Cuirong over.

"Hello, Mr. Song." Qin Cuirong said politely when she saw Gu Qinghuan.

Gu Qinghuan returned a salute and said, "It's troublesome."

On the way, Qin Cuirong had already heard her lady say why she was looking for her this time, so she replied after thinking for a while.

"I sometimes go with Guixiang... Oh, Guixiang is the maid in the house who is in charge of grocery shopping. When I went shopping with her, she told me that the house's rule is to eat the freshest vegetables, and The master is not allowed to waste, so generally we buy as much as we eat."

After listening to Gu Qinghuan, he lightly nodded his head twice and said, "Thank you."

Seeing that Boss Song didn't take the initiative to say why he asked about this, Hong Yaxuan couldn't help but asked curiously, "I don't know why Boss Song asked about this?"

Gu Qinghuan pursed his lips and smiled, and replied, "Today, when you guys were having lunch, I went to the East Kitchen to take a look, and found that a lot of leftovers were left in the kitchen, which was quite a waste."

"Huh?" Hong Yaxuan was a little strange after hearing this.

Without waiting for Hong Yaxuan to ask again, Gu Qinghuan looked at Qin Cuirong and said, "Miss Cuirong, right? I have something else I want to trouble you with."

"Please tell me." Qin Cuirong immediately bent down and saluted.

"Do you usually go to help the cook?"

"Well, I will go occasionally." Qin Cuirong nodded.

"In that case, you just need to be natural and ask some things for me..."

When Shen Shi, Guixiang, who returned to the East Kitchen with a vegetable basket, shouted: "General Cai, there is chrysanthemum for sale at Caishikou today. I bought some more, and you can give it a salad."

Hearing this, Le Dong, who was picking vegetables, immediately stood up and said, "This is a rare item. I haven't seen you buy it for a long time. Why is it suddenly available today?"

Because there is no refrigerator, seasonal wild vegetables like chrysanthemum can usually be eaten in the same month, and they have to be from large families.

Putting down the vegetable basket, Guixiang said as if taking credit: "Jiabo went into the mountains to dig it, and he dug a lot."

"Hey, have you entered the mountain? He is brave enough. There have been a lot of wild beasts in the mountains recently. I heard that there are still alien beasts."

"No, but thanks to people's courage, we also have a good time."

When the two were talking, Qin Cuirong jumped up and ran over, and when she saw the chrysanthemum in the vegetable basket, she immediately shouted, "Yeah! There are wild vegetables to eat today."

Guixiang listened and smiled and said, "It's still your nose, as soon as there is something delicious, it will come."

"How can I miss you?"

"Then you should come earlier to buy food with me."

"Okay~ I will definitely come early tomorrow."

After the chat, Qin Cuirong looked at Le Dong and said, "General Cai, leave me to help cook today."

The Hong family is very kind to the servants. The servants can also share the dishes eaten by the master, especially the help from the East Kitchen, so they can eat more.

So Ledong saw that Qin Cuirong was greedy for this chrysanthemum.

"Okay, then you have to work harder." Le Dong said with a smile.

"It's on me!"

Half an hour later, East Chef was already busy to the end, Qin Cuirong looked at the cage in Le Dong's hand and asked, "General Cai, why are you making so many steamed buns today? It's much more than the last time I came here, oh, I Got it, isn't it..."

"Don't dare to talk nonsense!" Le Dong hurriedly raised his face, "This is all explained by the eldest young master, let me steam more steamed buns these days."

"Oh~" Qin Cuirong nodded knowingly.

"You girl, who do you think of me, really..."

"Hey, I want to ask if the lord likes to eat the steamed buns you made and asked you to make more. Where do you want to go?"

"Ghost spirit, get out of the way, be careful to bump into you."

Then, who continued to help in the east kitchen, he found out that he also took out some pickles, which was also ordered by the eldest young master.

At Xu Shi, Qin Cuirong, who got the information, carefully came to the gate of the back garden and found her young lady.

"Have you asked?" Hong Yaxuan asked.

"Yeah! I've already asked." Qin Cuirong nodded vigorously.

"Okay, then let's go in."

When they came to the rockery, before the two of them looked around, they saw Boss Song coming out from behind the rockery.

Arching hands towards the two of them, Gu Qing

Huan looked at Qin Cuirong and said, "It's hard work girl."

"It's not hard, it's not hard." Qin Cuirong waved her hands again and again, and then immediately replied: "I have already inquired about what you want me to inquire about, Mr. Dong, and Chef Dong has indeed made more meals in the past few days, saying that it was ordered by the eldest young master. "

After hearing Qin Cuirong's answer, Hong Yaxuan couldn't help being surprised.

Not to mention whether this information is useful or not, Boss Song discovered the abnormality after only half a day, but she never thought about this direction at all.

'Oh... I'm going to be called stupid by that person again, no, no! I'm not stupid, Miss Ben is very smart, hum! ’

After comforting herself in her heart, Hong Yaxuan, who couldn't hold back her curiosity, asked again, "I wonder how this little thing will help Mr.

"Don't bother Miss Hong for the next thing. When there is a result, my brother will naturally tell you tomorrow at the pavilion. Let's take a step first and say goodbye."

After Gu Qinghuan put on the scarf and walked back to the rockery, when Hong Yaxuan and Qin Cuirong followed, they found that he was no longer there.

In the darkness of the night, Qin Cuirong, who felt a chill, grabbed the young lady's arm and said with a trembling voice, "This Mr. Song is really a strange person."

"Yes." Hong Yaxuan nodded.

But what Hong Yaxuan is more curious about at the moment is what kind of existence is the one who can control two strange people at the same time.

That night, Hong Yaxuan lost sleep.

After tossing and turning, she didn't want to understand what Boss Song discovered, and what this discovery would bring to their Hong family.

'I won't get into a big accident...'

Hong Yaxuan suddenly panicked, but she just panicked a little and decided not to scare herself, because her intuition told her that that person would not harm her.

'But what is it...'

In this way, Hong Yaxuan tossed and turned until dawn, but she was also a cultivator after all, so it was nothing if she didn't sleep all night, and she had to endure until the hour, and finally Hong Yaxuan, who had waited for the appointed time, couldn't wait to come outside the pavilion.

"call……"

After adjusting her breath, Hong Yaxuan slowly walked into the pavilion and found that the three of them were in the pavilion.

Just as Hong Yaxuan was about to surrender, she saw Jiang Beiran make a driving gesture to her and said, "You don't have to report today, go home and wait for the news, and I will tell you when it finds out."

"what!?"

Hong Yaxuan was stunned for a moment, but she couldn't help but ask, "I want to ask Song Yesterday..."

"You can go back, I don't want to say it again."

Looking at Jiang Beiran's sharp eyes, Hong Yaxuan couldn't help shrinking her neck and bowed her head: "Yes..."

Walking into a small wood far from the gazebo, Hong Yaxuan couldn't help but stomped her feet twice.

"Bad man! Another murderer! Another murderer!"

Hong Yaxuan, who couldn't help but "嘤嘤嘤" for a while, felt a little aggrieved, but she felt that the person seemed to have really figured out the matter, otherwise why would she not need help from her family members.

'Forget it, for the sake of him being so caring, I'll forgive him one more time. ’
