Yuwen Xi then explained everything to her. She told Yin Lian that she would only speak today, but her voice was very unpleasant and told him not to mind, and also not to speak of this matter to anyone else. In front of everyone, he still had to treat her like she couldn't speak at all.

"That's great. Miss, you can finally speak. In the future, this servant will understand what you mean." Yin Lian was very happy, and did not dislike Yuwen Xi's coarse voice at all. To her, it was fine as long as Yuwen Xi knew how to speak.

Every time, the Miss would shake her head and smile, but she just didn't want to explain too much. After all, she didn't know what the Miss was going to say, and this kind of feeling was really bad. She hoped that she could understand what the Miss was doing at the first possible moment.

"Yin Lian, how about I teach you sign language from now on?" Being able to speak and teach was much more convenient. Yin Lian should indeed be able to read, if not it would still be difficult to communicate with others.

Especially when she was in front of others, she could not reveal that she knew how to speak, so she had to rely on Yin Lian's communication.

"Alright, as long as Miss is willing to teach me, I will do my best to learn. However, Miss can't despise me for being stupid." Yin Lian laughed somewhat embarrassedly.

Yuwen Xi shook his head, "As long as you study diligently, you will learn it sooner or later. We are not in a hurry."

"Miss, what is Sign Language?" Yin Lian asked this question. She did not know the Sign Language, and had never interacted with it before.

Yuwen Xi had already started teaching her before he explained to her. She would first teach her simple things, such as "go out", "eat", "rest", and so on. Yin Lian learnt very diligently, afraid that she would not be able to keep up with Yuwen Xi's tempo.

After teaching sign language and also teaching Yin Lian how to read, the two of them arrived very late. Yin Lian had just started learning, so he acted very new and curious.

"Don't be in such a rush. If you're in a hurry, you won't be able to eat hot tofu. Let's do this for today, we'll continue tomorrow."

"Well, miss, who taught you to read? This servant remembers that Fourth Concubine didn't teach you back then. " Yin Lian remembered clearly that in the past, Yuwen Xi could not read nor write, but the current Yuwen Xi was extremely powerful, capable, and intelligent.

To this question, Yuwen Xi was troubled, how was she to answer?

"I secretly learned it. Alright, let's not dwell on this problem. Quickly go back and rest, I'm going to sleep as well." Yuwen Xi had muddled her way through and did not plan to continue talking about this issue.

If it was anyone else, it would be very difficult. She could not help but think of Baili Yeming and Qing Feng, and she really could not understand why they did not kill her. Could it be that she had some kind of secret on her body? Or was there a secret in her dead mother?

From the way they asked it, it was definitely a secret, otherwise they would not have asked it. From another point of view, a bunch of ordinary mother and daughter, their mother had been dead for a long time, their daughter was someone who did not care about looks or looks, neither did she want money nor money.

The more Yuwen Xi thought, the more she felt that something was amiss. She couldn't help but take out the things left behind by Fourth Mother. She didn't need to look at the ancient books anymore, and after going through them several times, she remembered the movements of the people inside. She also didn't understand what the other two things were.

Playing with one of them, she could see that it was a whistle, the length of a forefinger. Why was a whistle so delicate and valuable? Can you blow?

She put it to her lips and blew gently, afraid that if she used too much strength, it would cause too much trouble. In the end, not a single sound came from the whistle. She increased her strength, but not a single sound came from her. She was already beginning to suspect that this was not a whistle at all. How could a whistle sound when it couldn't be sounded? Unfathomable.

Putting the whistle to the side, she picked up another object that had an unknown shape, just like a piece of blossomed crystal, but the material should be a combination of gold and silver, it was especially beautiful, she felt that she should hide this thing well, perhaps it was the key to some treasure, the possibility was very high, such a good thing had to be hidden well, where could she hide it? Close quarters? No, it was easy to get searched.

It was better to find a hidden place to hide. A place that others could not even think of would be even more unfathomable.

Yuwen Xi really hated that whistle that could not make a sound, but seeing that it did a good job, she decided to take it with her. She could sell it when she had no money and could definitely settle the matter of a meal.

It was getting late, but she was not yet sleepy. What could she do? Flowing Light and Broken Jade Picture? Right, go to Yuwen Jing's study and research.

Yuwen Qiang definitely wouldn't stay in the study at this late hour. After sneaking around in the dark, she found that all the doors and windows in the study were tightly shut. If she wanted to enter, she would either destroy the windows or destroy the door.

Looking at the door of the study room, Yuwen Xi gestured with his right foot, should I kick it in? She discovered that she was addicted to kicking at doors, but now that she clearly couldn't kick, she had to find a peaceful way to deal with it.

She had no knowledge of ancient locks, but the ancient locks were not as complicated as the modern locks. Should she try it? Maybe he could do it without a teacher.

Yuwen Xi removed the silver hairpin from her head and placed it into the lock. After all, there was no reaction at all, Yuwen Xi was a little discouraged, did she have the talent to become a thief?

No, try again. You must be calm, take your time, unlock the door as carefully as opening a safe. You must not be impatient.

Yuwen Xi took a few deep breaths to calm herself down, then placed the hairpin back into the lock. She carefully picked and fiddled with it, and only heard a "click" sound.

Sure enough, once she did that, the lock opened. This was great, she had the talent to be a thief. After entering, she found that she couldn't lock the door from the inside. If she just left it there, it would definitely arouse suspicion.

She looked at the window and immediately found a way to open it and climb out, lock the door, and then climb in through the window. With this turn of events, she was covered in sweat and felt that it was not easy.

He used the fire piston to light up the study, but the light from the fire piston was too weak. If only he had a powerful flashlight, then this era's conditions were really a bit barren.

Where is the trapdoor? Where is it? With the fire piston in one hand and the other touching the wall, she set a starting point for herself. She felt her way to the finish line from this point, not letting go of even a single piece.

After searching a third of the study room without any results, Yuwen Xi thought to rest for a while, and then continue, just as she sat down to catch her breath, she heard footsteps outside. Although it was very light, but she could still hear it. Is it Yuwen Jing? Who cares who he is, he'll hide first. Where should he hide?

Yuwen Xi was very anxious. If he found out that she was in the study room, she would be finished.

In the end, Yuwen Xi decided to hide under the table. There was no place to hide, and the study room did not have any furniture that was designed to hide. Sighing, Yuwen Xi hid away, praying that she would not be discovered.

The sound of the door opening was quite loud. Someone was unlocking the door, and it didn't take long for the door to open. Could it really be Yuwen Jing? Why did he come to the study in the middle of the night? This is the biggest insult to the Madame Liang!

The study room was pitch black, so she couldn't clearly see who it was. However, just as she was trying very hard to look, the study room lit up. Fire piston!

At this moment, she finally saw clearly who this person was. It wasn't Yuwen Qiang.

What was Yuwen Jie doing here? Could it be that he had a part in this study as well? However, from the way he was rummaging through the books, he didn't seem to be the owner of this study. If it was the owner, he could light a candle and slowly search for it.

Yuwen Zhi and Yuwen Shu were both children of the Madame Liang, so they were extremely proud and arrogant. They very rarely had any conflicts with her, and it could be said that they didn't want to have anything to do with her at all. They would basically ignore her, and just pretend that she didn't exist.

So she didn't really understand Second Elder Brother, the direct son of General Mansion.

What was he looking for? Could he be looking for Flowing Light and Broken Jade Picture like her? It can't be, someone wants to snatch it from her? Did Zi Chuan find another person to force her to change her progress, or was there someone else who wanted to look for this map as well?

Yuwen Xi felt her mind was in a mess. Forget it, she would not study these things, it was enough for her to make sure that she was not discovered. If she was found out, she would not know how to handle it.

Fortunately, Yuwen Jie wasn't able to find what he was looking for and left after flipping for a while. Yuwen Xi immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

Both of Yuwen Xi's legs were trembling so badly that it was like a squat, numb and painful. If Yuwen Jie had stayed any longer, she probably would have come out by himself. If he had known earlier, he would have sat down right away.

After resting for a while, Yuwen Xi felt that it would be better if she returned herself.

Sigh, going out is another complicated process. Yuwen Xi really wanted to sleep here, she wanted to crawl out from the window, unlock the door, enter and close the window, and finally come out and lock the door. This series of actions made him especially tired, her legs were still trembling.

After returning to her residence, she collapsed onto her bed. She couldn't take it anymore. Stealing things wasn't just a matter of skill or physical labor. The first time was unavoidable, so she believed that the second time would be much better.

What exactly was Yuwen Jie looking for? If he needed something, he could go to Yuwen Qiang's study room. However, he had picked it at such an awkward moment. There was definitely a problem, there was definitely a problem!
