Scheme of the Official Descendant

************

the carriage of the Lin family came before Mrs. Ren left and brought some farewell gifts to her family.

After sending the carriage of Ren's family away, Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaoyin were received by the Lin family.

Ren Shijia was very happy with the arrival of the two nieces and took them to see where they lived.

Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaoyin lived in the West Chamber of Ren Shijia's courtyard. The two bedrooms were on both sides of the three wing rooms, and the middle was used as the reception hall.

Although Ren Shijia was also surnamed Ren, she was very easy to get along with, and sometimes she was childish, which was not in line with her age.

The other masters of the Lin family also expressed their welcome to Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaoyin. Mrs. Lin invited the two sisters to her for dinner. Mrs. Lin specially came to see if they needed anything else. Lin Baoling and another sister of the Lin family, with Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaoyin, visited the whole Lin family house twice.

However, Ren Shijia came to find them after dropping the key in the yard. He told them that they would stay in the yard when they were all right. They should not have too much contact with the Lin family. If they have to go, they must first explain to her and report to her immediately after they come back.

Ren Shijia's face was full of anxiety and uneasiness that she tried to hide when she said these things.

Looking at such Ren Shijia, Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaoyin both responded cleverly. Seeing them so, Ren Shijia actually comforted them with a smile: "it's OK. My aunt knows that you've always been very clever, but I'm afraid that you'll suffer from someone you're not familiar with. There's no other meaning. When you are free in a few days, your aunt will take you around the city of Yunyang. "

After Ren Shijia left, Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaoyin were still sitting in the living room for a while. They both drank tea silently and did not know what they were thinking. Until the maid came to say that the hot water was ready and asked them to take a bath, the two sisters politely and kindly said not to leave each other.

Although Yunyang city is also close to the river, it is not like Baihe Town. It is an important town in Yanbei, equivalent to the capital of a state, with a very dense population. So after nightfall, Yunyang city is not as cool as Baihe Town.

In Baihe Town, even in the middle of summer, Ren's family seldom used ice. At night, he needed to cover with a thin quilt. However, when he arrived at Yunyang City, Ren Yao was awakened by the heat in the middle of the night. In fact, it's not so hot that I can't sleep. I even sweat a little, but I wake up once or twice in the middle of the night, and I live in any other hospital.

This just passed the Dragon Boat Festival, the real hot time of the year has not come.

Ren Yaoqi sat at the head of the bed with his eyes closed. The gauze curtain was lifted up and hung on the hook. The mulberry on duty was sitting on the edge of the bed and gently fanned Ren Yaoqi.

Just when Ren Yao was sleepy again, there was a rustling sound outside. Mulberry fan, while looking at the window side, see Ren Yaoqi opened his eyes, then whispered: "Miss, it seems to be raining."

As soon as her voice fell, a flash of lightning struck the white veiled window, and the rain became louder and louder.

After a while, Ren Yaoqi heard a sound coming from the other side of the waiting room. It seemed that it was coming from the room where Ren Yaoyin lived, and soon there were footsteps coming here.

"Sister five, have you slept yet?" Ren Yaoyin's gentle voice sounded outside the curtain.

Their bedroom and the living room in the middle are connected. It's very convenient for Ren Yaoyin to come over.

"No In the period of Ren Yao, the voice should be heard.

Then the curtain was lifted and Ren Yaoyin came in. She should also wake up in the middle of the night, wearing a bright red thin Cape. The servant girl who followed her still held a candlestick in her hand.

The candlelight in the room was rather dim. Ren Yaoyin's face was full of light, leaving only a vague shadow for people to see clearly. However, Ren Yaoqi felt that such a face seemed to be more compatible with Ren Yaoyin, and there was no sense of disobedience, just as she had given her.

"The weather is really If it rains, it rains. Is the fifth sister unable to sleep Ren Yaoyin came to Ren Yaoqi's bedside. Her maid put the candlestick in her hand on the table of Eight Immortals in the middle of the room.

"Did I wake you up?" Ren Yaoqi smiles apologetically.

Ren Yaoyin staggered some of his body and didn't let his shadow cover his face. Therefore, because of the angle, Ren Yaoyin was exposed to the light, which made Ren Yaoyin see clearly. Ren Yaoqi didn't care that Ren Yaoyin could see himself clearly, but he couldn't see Ren Yaoyin.

"No, it was a bit stuffy before it rained, so I woke up. I've had a problem since I was a child. I can't sleep again when I wake up in the middle of the night. I'll come and have a look when I see some noise on your side. "

Ren Yaoyin turned to look at the window lattice. It was dark outside, so the side of the window lattice covered with screen was also dark. The sound of rain was getting louder and louder. It seemed that two worlds were separated by a layer of gauze with small holes.

Ren Yaoqi didn't know the reason why Ren Yaoyin came over in the middle of the night, so he didn't talk much. He just followed her words.Ren Yaoyin has a quiet and gentle temperament, which is different from Aunt Fang's softness of Southern women. When she talks to people, she always makes people feel that she is reliable and trustworthy. This is also the reason why Ren Yaoyin is very popular.

"How did the five sisters get to know each other? I have heard that the princess does not like to mingle with people, nor is she very close to people Ren Yao Yin blinked and asked casually, with a certain amount of curiosity.

Ren Yao period smile: "that time with the mother to white dragon temple burning incense by chance."

Ren Yaoyin laughed and said, "it seems that this is the fate between people. Speaking of it, it was also fate that I met with Miss Yun. It was a few years ago, I followed my grandmother to attend an old lady's birthday party in Yunyang city. She and I wore clothes that were very similar in fabric and style. After standing together, others thought we were sisters. At that time, I was still young, but miss Yunda had a good reputation for a long time. In the face of people's eyes, I was at a loss. Miss Yunda was very happy. Dafang took my hand and said that she wanted to recognize me as my sister. In another Lantern Festival, we got each other's lanterns and guessed the riddles written by each other. "

Ren Yaoyin said here, the voice with a smile, warm soft also with some nostalgia.

Ren Yaoqi felt that Ren Yaoyin's expression was strange at this time. Because she didn't know, Ren Yaoyin only said half of her words. Although the lantern that Ren Yaoyin got at that time was nominally Yun qiuchen's, in fact, the riddle on it was written by Yun Wenting, the young master of Yunda. This was later discovered when Ren Yaoyin saw the handwriting of Yun Wenting by chance. Later, she collected the lantern and the riddle on it.

"What about you, sister five? Is there anything interesting between you and the princess Speaking of this, Ren Yaoyin asked with a smile.

"Fun?" Ren Yaoqi thought, "that day in the Bailong temple, the princess was using copper money to throw that blessing bell. I envy her accuracy, so I stood beside me and looked at it for a long time. I think the dull appearance at that time let the princess notice it."

Ren Yaoyin chuckled and joked, "is this a fool who has a fool's fortune?"

Ren Yaoqi also laughed and bowed his head.

"Well What about the second young master of the cloud family? How do you know each other? " Ren Yaoyin asked.

This question lets Ren Yao period Leng a Leng, look to Ren Yao Yin. But she is still behind the light, people can not see the expression.

Ren Yaoqi thought that Ren Yaoyin's friendship with Yun qiuchen was to help her tell her about her relationship with Xiao Jinglin and Yun Wenfang? The abacus is very good.

Ren Yaoqi was a little surprised and said, "isn't it the last time he came to Baihe Town to see Ren's home? Oh, I thought he was a gentleman at that time

Ren Yaoyin smiles and doesn't know whether he believes it or not, but he doesn't continue to ask. She looked out of the window: "it's raining hard today, and I don't know if it can stop tomorrow."

Ren Yaoqi casually responded: "aunt, didn't you let us go out less? If it rains, just take it in the yard

However, Ren Yaoyin took a look at Ren Yaoqi and half rang her smile: "do you know why my aunt wants to explain to the two of us who come to the Lin family, not to go too close to the Lin family?"

"Is it that my aunt is not as good as she seems to be in the Lin family?" Ren Yao's period was quiet and natural.

Ren Yaoyin sighed: "because my uncle is the only inheritor of the second house of the Lin family, he should have inherited half of the family property. However, the big room did not agree that the uncle should be separated from the Lin family. Because of the property dispute, I don't know what moths will come out in the future. My aunt is afraid that we will be taken advantage of by those who are interested in it, so she told us so

Ren Yaoyin is not stingy in giving advice to Ren Yaoqi, just as her sisters ask her questions about her needle and thread at home, and she never conceals herself.

"I see. I also heard some rumors, but no four sisters knew so much. Thank you for your advice Ren Yaoqi thought about it and sincerely said it.

Ren Yaoyin smile: "my sister, both prosperity and loss, thank you for what."

Ren Yaoyin sat in Ren Yao's future room for a moment, sometimes instructing her to behave and sometimes asking her some questions without trace.

No matter what she asked, Ren Yaoqi's answer was all right.

After seeing Ren Yaoqi yawn, Ren Yaoyin said goodbye with a smile: "it's late, and I'm a little sleepy. Let's talk about it next time."

Ren Yaoqi wants to get up to see him off, but he is refused by Ren Yaoyin pressing her arm, and Ren Yaoqi doesn't insist.

When Ren Yaoyin lifted the curtain and came out, she couldn't help turning to look at Ren Yaoqi, who was lying down with the servant girl's support. Her eyebrows wrinkled and her smile on her face also narrowed. But she only looked at it and turned away.

Ren Yaoqi took a look at the swinging bead curtain and closed his eyes.

In the latter half of the night, Ren Yao slept well, although it rained all night outside.

The next day, the rain did not stop, but the patter was much smaller than at night.

Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaoyin went to Ren Shijia's room for breakfast after they had finished.Uncle Lin Kun is not in the house. He seems to have gone out early in the morning. I don't know whether it is because they are there or they didn't have breakfast in the inner courtyard before.

Ren Shijia is not Mrs. Lin's serious daughter-in-law, and because she had a child, Mrs. Lin saved her morning and night from her reflection. So Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaoyin don't have to go to see old Mrs. Lin in the early morning like the people of the Lin family.

To some extent, Ren Shijia's status in the Lin family is detached. However, this detachment is more like a kind of compensation for her by the Lin family.

Ren Shijia used to be a little uneasy about her special status in the Lin family. Since she knew that she had never had children and might have something to do with the Lin family's big house, she figured it out a lot.

In the morning, Ren Shijia asked her servant girl Qingliu to take the money and go to the Lin family's kitchen to add some dishes that Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua like to eat. A message reached the inner courtyard of the Lin family, and Mrs. Lei's wife died.

At that time, Ren Yaoqi was also in Ren Shijia's room, fighting with Ren Yaoyin and eating xiaolincen, who was in the spirit of milk.

This news lets a person Ren Yao period startle, hold the hand of rattle drum to pause in the air.

"How come Didn't you do well the day before yesterday? " Ren Shijia was also frightened and asked the servant girl who came in to report the news.

The day before yesterday, Mrs. Leitai also came to Lin Cen's full moon wine. At that time, she couldn't see what was wrong.

"I don't know. I said I had a sudden illness in the middle of the night last night." The servant girl also heard from the outside. The Lei family sent people out to buy white cloth at dawn. Then the families in Yunyang city received the funeral reports from the Lei family, and the Lin family just received them.

Ren Shijia was a little sad, but she thought that Mrs. Leitai was almost in her seventies. Although she didn't look very old, she was relieved when she was there.

Ren Yaoqi thought more about it. What she thought was whether Mrs. Leitai's sudden death had something to do with her identity. If the cause of death was not so simple, who did it.

After all, it was a coincidence that Mrs. Lei died at this time when others wanted to use her identity to attack Lei's family.

Will her death bring the secret of her identity into the coffin or push the Lei family to a more dilemma?

Not long after that, Mrs. Lin sent a mammy over. The Lin family would go to Leifu in the afternoon to mourn. Mrs. Lin meant to let Ren Shijia go with Mrs. Lin.

That mammy must be used by Mrs. Lin. Ren Shijia was very polite to her and had a chat with her for a while.

Ren Shijia was very popular with the people of the Lin family, because she was generous and had no airs.

Speaking of Mrs. Lei's affairs, the mammy also sighed: "the day before yesterday, it was good to end it. When I left from us, the maid still followed the eldest lady to send her to the second gate. Now it's gone. It's really... "

Ren Shijia sighed: "after all, I'm old. It's said that when old lady Lei was in the south, Lei's family was hard, and her mother's family fell down and suffered a lot. At that time, I can't tell what kind of disease has fallen. "

The mother was silent for a moment, then lowered her voice and said, "there are some rumors outside now."

Ren Shijia was a little surprised and couldn't help asking, "what's the rumor?"

"It is said that Mrs. Leitai died in a strange way. In fact, she did not die in a hurry, but was killed by someone else!"

Ren Shijia was stunned and his face turned pale: "this Impossible? Who's going to kill her? How long did the Lei family come to Yanbei? Where did they come from? "

"I don't know. I also listen to the rumors. Do you think, this lady has heard that she pays great attention to maintenance all the year round. She doesn't even have a minor illness all year round. She has never heard of any root cause of disease. When she appeared in front of people, she did not look ruddy and full of style? As for the enemy It's not sure. Maybe it's for Lei's family, maybe for Mrs. Leitai, maybe it's from outside or from their own house.

"Where did you hear that?" At that time, Jia Na Na Dao had not recovered from the shock.

"I heard from other women in the mansion, but some of them said it from the servant girl of Lei's family. As the saying goes, "no fire without wind, there must be something wrong with me when I look at it!"

Speaking of this, the eldest lady sent someone to look for this Mammy, and mammy got up to say goodbye to Ren Shijia.

Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaoyin, sitting next door, listened to the conversation between Ren Shijia and the mother nine times out of ten.

Ren Yaoyin is not very interested in the affairs of the Lei family. She is helping Ren Shijia to embroider a pair of tiger shoes for xiaolincen, and carefully thread the needle.

Ren Yaoqi took a pair of pincers to peel pine nuts while watching Ren Yaoyin do the work. However, his thoughts had already flown away.

The rumor in that Mammy's mouth just now, let Ren Yaoqi can't help but think of the rumor that Cen elder brother er's full moon wine was deliberately spread that day.

Someone secretly manipulates people to spread rumors that are not conducive to the Lei family.

But why is it that Mrs. Leitai is a homicide? What is the purpose of the people behind it?As for why Ren Yaoqi felt that Mrs. Leitai was killed by someone else was a rumor, because she knew that people in the inner courtyard, especially those close to the masters, were absolutely reliable in such a situation.

Moreover, if it's the Han family's hands, it's better for them to live than to die. Because her identity is a flaw in itself.

Outside the sky is still some gloomy, from last night began to rain has been intermittent under, let people's mood is also low.

Ren Yaoqi felt some depression, which even made her feel that she needed strength to breathe.

He put the peeled pine nuts into the dish and pushed it to Ren Yaoyin. Ren Yaoqi stood up: "I've been sitting for a long time. I'll get up and walk."

Ren Yaoyin raised his head and looked at the pine nuts peeled by Ren Yao. He bit off the thread in his hand and said with a smile, "it's cheap for you to peel so much for half a day?"

Ren Yao period also smile: "four elder sister always loves me, I also love four elder sister."

Ren Yaoyin is stunned and then smiles gently.

Ren Yaoqi is just walking in the corridor. Ren Shijia doesn't stop her. She just tells her to be careful not to get wet.

The air outside is really much better, with the fragrance of soil and plants.

Ren Yaoqi originally planned to cover the porch of the courtyard and take a breath. He took his thoughts in the way. He didn't want to see the parsley coming in from the outside and holding a small box in his hand.

"Why don't you take an umbrella when it's raining?" Ren Yao period see celery hair stained with some fine and dense droplets, shoulder also wet, blame way.

When parsley saw Ren Yao period, she immediately ran over and spat out her tongue when she criticized her: "I forgot in a hurry for a moment."

Ren Yao period picked pick eyebrow: "what matter is so urgent?"

The parsley smell speech pointed to the box in the hand, a face of brilliant smile: "someone wants to deliver things to the young lady, the maid specially ran to see, this just knew that it was the princess sent."

If celery was ordered to die by Ren Yaohua, he was not allowed to approach some inexplicable people. So when she heard that someone was going to deliver something to Ren Yaoqi, the loyal servant girl ran out without saying a word. She didn't want to see someone from the Yun family, who was strictly guarded by her family, but a servant girl beside the princess of Yanbei palace, who came to deliver things to Ren Yaoqi.

It seems that he is afraid that Ren Yaoqi will blame himself for his own conceit. While he is courteous and smiles, he is careful to pay attention to Ren Yaoqi's face. In my mind, if Miss five lost her temper on the spot, what should I do.

At the moment, the little servant girl was also full of tears in her heart. One of her servant girls led a monthly routine to do two people's work. She was used to it. But the master can't give her all the hard work just because she is smart, capable and clever!

Let her offend people or something This is too bullying servant girl!

Ren Yaoqi quietly enjoyed the rich and colorful facial expression of parsley, then laughed and took over the small box which was only the size of a palm: "well, thank you for your trip. Go into the room and change your clothes."

Celery's face immediately turned cloudy and clear, and her smiling eyes were bright. If she had a tail, she would shake it a few times: "ah, I'm going now."

Looking at celery's cheerful back, Ren Yaoqi couldn't help laughing, and even the feeling of suffocation had dissipated a lot. In fact, the servant girl of parsley didn't know the rules. Although she was happy, she never let the master down at the critical moment.

What's more, Ren Yaohua told her that the intention of this matter was good intention, so she would not be angry about this kind of thing.

Ren Yaoqi looked at the box in his hand and thought about it. He went back to his room first.

The big box is made of red sandalwood. It is carved with patterns of blessing like the East China Sea. It is very exquisite. Ren Yao opened a look, but Leng Leng, inside is a eight immortals across the sea walnut carving.

Ren Yaoqi took out the small walnut carving and looked at it carefully for a moment. Found that the middle of the walnut is hollowed out, so it is carving, carving is very good.

But why did Xiao Jinglin send this to her for no reason? Gifts?

Just thinking about this, Ren Yaoqi looked at the light with a walnut, but he was moved in his heart. There was something in the hollow part of walnut.
