Heather gave Lian Yu some money and asked her to go back and say to her home and come to the restaurant later.

Liuzi watched her leave with fierce eyes and turned to look for Heather, "Arthur, why did you keep her?"

"She looks very clever."

Liuzi was dissatisfied, "I dare to steal things in Longcheng, something that even a fool would not do."

Longcheng is the territory of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. If something happens here, it will cause trouble in the capital. Not to mention a thief, even a beggar rarely has the courage to come in.

Heather knew what Liuzi meant, but he had no explanation.

She had the courage to steal things in Longcheng, and could still follow her upstairs calmly when she was caught on the spot. It can be seen that she had done such things here in the past. She chose to faint at the entrance of the restaurant. If someone saved her, it means that the other party was in a good heart. Even if she knew that she had stole things, she would be beaten and thrown out at most and would never lose her life.

Furthermore, Longcheng is the most prosperous place in Gu County. You can wait for a while if you succeed once. You don’t have to do such a worried business every day. The risks are proportional to your interests, so she is actually very clever.

Liuzi said contemptuously: "This girl is not upright in her mind, and it may be a disaster to keep her."

"It's just because of the pressure of livelihood." It's not that she wants to excuse Lian Yu. If Lian Yu is just begging for herself, she will not starve to death when she begs for food on the street. She wants to steal things because someone wants to raise her family. Looking at her scarred hands, she will take care of her family without any reservations. Such a person will not be too bad.

"Okay, let's not talk about her. I have recently booked a list of guests in the third floor room and brought it to me to take a look."

At the agreed time, Heather brought the people back to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

She didn't take anyone directly to Xue Tiannan's yard, and first went to Mrs. Xue to tell her the story, and of course she ignored the story of stealing.

Seeing that the person was clean and well-behaved, Xiao Xi asked someone to arrange for her to live in the yard of the maid. After saying this, Heather was naturally stayed for dinner. According to the reason, Fang Xuanji came to Zhenguo Mansion today and would appear at the evening banquet, but during the meal, Heather did not see him and Xue Tiannan.

She is more than the one who is confused.

"Mom, why can't brother and the others come?"

"Your brother has something to discuss with Mr. Fang, and my mother will deliver the food later."

"Why do Brother Xuan Ji always come to our house, and they both have to drill into the broken pavilion?" Xue Jin was puzzled, but he was not complaining.

Grandpa Xue's face turned inexplicably when he heard his granddaughter's words. Xue Junzhi, who was sitting next to him, blamed him: "Xiao Jin, how did you speak."

Xue Jin didn't know what he said wrong, "Dad, what's in that pavilion? You don't let me in, and your brother won't let you."

There is a ten-story attic in the direction of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion near the sea. It can be seen anywhere in the mansion. It is not close to the distance. Hesser thought he had already left the area of ​​Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and had never been there.

A place where even Xue Jin could not enter? What is the origin of this pavilion? Heather thought about it in his heart, and looked down on his head and ate silently, as if he had not heard anything.

"Eat your meal well, so many words." Grandpa Xue drank Xue Jin and signaled his daughter-in-law with his eyes. Xiao Xi understood and whispered to the maid beside him.

After dinner, a maid came over with a three-layer carved mahogany box. Xiao Xi's eyes circled around the hall and called out to Heather, who had already walked to the door.

"Qianqian, wait a moment."

Heather had already stepped out of the door with one foot and saw Mrs. Xue walking towards him with the seemingly weighty food box. "I have some trivial matters in the house, and the servants are slow to take. Can you deliver food to them for me?"

Heather reacted for a while before realizing who she was talking about "they" she said. It is certain that she can do it, but she is an outsider in a place where even Xue Jin has never been to... Thinking about Xue Tiannan's cold face as snowy as the scene when she met him in the pavilion, her back was a little cold.

"Mrs. Xue, I'm going... it's not appropriate. Why not let Xiao Jin sister..."

"Xiao Jin may not be able to stand it. Qianqian, just go this trip for me and put things in front of the door, you don't have to go in."

Put it in front of the door? Heather imagined the scene where the person inside opened the door to get the meal. It was like eating in prison. He couldn't help but feel a little funny. When he felt relieved, he also felt that there was no need to be so vigilant just for Mrs. Xue.

"Okay, I just don't know the way."

Xiao Xi's eyes flashed subtly, "I'll let the maid take you there."

Heather followed Xiao Xi's close maid all the way, and walked through the familiar front yard and back yard. The two stepped onto a bridge. Heather remembered that the large semi-circular stone bridge was mounted on an artificial river, with a very nice name called Landing the Moon.

Behind the bridge is a lake, which can be seen on the other side during the day, but at night they can't see clearly. The two of them stood by the lake for a while, and soon a wooden boat came.

Heather rubbed his eyes, thinking he had hallucinations.

The maid held a lamp and illuminated the road under her feet, "Princess, please get on the boat."
