The sun had set, and it was autumn once again. The trees and grasses of Mu Xi Yuan were a withered color, and when the sun set, they seemed even more decadent.

When Xiu Ying arrived, the young man was standing in front of the window. The setting sun was about to envelop him, making it hard to see under the bright light of the setting sun.

Xiu Ying looked at Shen Jun's thin figure and laughed. No matter how she looked at his body, he seemed lonely. Her heart actually twitched a little. Feeling sour and uncomfortable.

"Third uncle!" The girl lowered her eyes for a moment and then raised her head, brimming with energy. She revealed a huge smile as she ran forward.

Shen Jun smiled as he was lost in thought. When he heard the sound of her voice, he raised his head and saw a young lady running towards him from the corridor. Her pink dress fluttered along with her movements, like a cute pink butterfly.

His serious face was covered in a smile. He whispered to the little girl who had ran to the window, "You be careful. Don't be afraid of falling down."

The little girl looked up and said with a smile, "I am not a child anymore!"

Seeing that Xiu Ying was only a head taller than the window, Shen Jun smiled and raised his eyebrows. "En, he's not a child anymore."

Xiu Ying realized that he was making fun of her. It was rare for her to make such a pouting gesture. Her cheeks bulged out.

She pretended to be annoyed and said, "You're lying to me!"

Shen Jun laughed out loud as he saw how adorable she was. He raised his hand to pinch her cheek and laughed out loud, "How could I dare? Our family's master is so intelligent, how could I dare to be perfunctory?"

"Humph, then I'll believe you for now." Xiu Ying put her hands on her waist, looking like a fierce woman.

Shen Junxiao was truly amused. He beckoned for her to enter the study room, and the little girl moved her head away from the window.

"Why did you come over?" Shen let her sit down and drink her tea.

Xiu Ying replied, "I came to get food. I haven't had enough to eat at the Hou Mansion today."

When she went to the banquet, she had to be dignified and reserved. She hadn't even eaten a few mouthfuls, not to mention the fact that her appetite had already been ruined.

Shen Jun nodded with a smile, expressing his understanding. He then called for Sibao to order the dishes in the kitchen. Four Treasures chuckled and exchanged a glance with Xiu Ying. He quickly left. He thought to himself that he had found the right person to find a girl, and his family had become very gentle.

"Tomorrow is the holiday, there will be a lantern festival. Are you going out?" Shen Jun asked as he recalled the little girl's lively personality.

"Go, third uncle, take me out?"

In fact, it was Shen Junxiao who had taken her out in the past to guess the riddle.

Shen Jun smiled and said, "Sure, but I still have a classmate. As long as you don't feel bored, that's good enough."

"Then can I call the Chen family's little sister? It seems that third uncle knows his elder brother."

"It's not impossible." Shen Junxiao looked at her and said, "I'm just afraid that my brother won't be invited."

In his previous life, he was on good terms with his colleague of the Chen family's eldest young master. At first, they could be considered friendly, but later on the other party looked at him with disdain.

At that time, he had already begun to use extreme methods in the court.

Xiu Ying didn't know about this. She smiled and said, "How could that be? Third Uncle is so good. Everyone likes to hang out with third uncle." As he said that, he suddenly thought of something and his face turned serious.

"However, Third Uncle still needs to see people clearly. Some people can't easily be trusted because they don't see the good or bad on the surface."

The little girl was very serious. Shen Jun smiled in surprise, and then he smiled.

"Yes." At such a young age, you're getting more and more talkative. " She was like this the last time. It had only been a few days, but she had come again.

However, Shen Junxiao knew that this little girl was only concerned about him, and only wanted to tease him a little.

Xiu Ying raised her chin. "I'm afraid that third uncle is too gullible."

Shen Jun laughed and almost fell off his chair.

He's simple?

He looks so gullible!

Shen Jun laughed out loud. No matter what, he was truly amused by this little girl. It was just that when this little girl grew up, she found out that he was not a good person. He wondered if she would regret what he had said today.

Laughter came out from the study room, and Sixi's eyes were filled with laughter.

Old Master Shen had long since awoken from his sleep at the Kang Ning Courtyard. He chatted with Old Madam Shen for a while longer before scolding Aunt Cui for being helped back to the front yard by someone else.

The front yard was completely empty. Master Shen watched as the inexplicable fire in his heart assaulted him, and he was so angry that he smashed quite a number of things.

He had been so unlucky lately that nothing went well.

Shen Junxiao was also a powerful person. He had actually grabbed the little girl and tossed her over to the old lady, not only to her, but to her as well. The old lady misunderstood that the lass was using some kind of seductive and corruptive medicine to interrogate her.

Shen Jun had probably known all along that it was him who did it, so he had acted in such a manner.

He had really underestimated this little brother of his!

Master Shen lost his temper. When the crowd heard that San Yan had offended them, they were so scared that they didn't dare to go in and serve him. In the end, they could only send people to find Auntie Xue.

Sanxue was also afraid of Master Shen, so she braced herself and went over. Master Shen had nowhere to vent his anger, it would be absurd to capture Sanxue. Master Shen only cared about venting his anger, which was really bad for Pure Snow. Under the torture he went through, he also got a taste of the strange pleasure.

After that, when the girl went in to clean up, she saw Suixue, who was on her last breath and was covered in tears, and her hands were shaking.

Just what kind of torture was this?

The Shen family wouldn't be at peace before the holidays. Aunt Cui was similarly in a gloomy mood. When she woke up, she was dumbstruck and didn't even have a sip of water.

Sue Er held the food in her hands and kneeled beside the bed, trying to persuade her to use some, but she couldn't seem to hear anything. At the end of her persuasion, Su E turned around and walked out of the room while she ate one mouthful of food after another.

Aunt Cui did not want to eat it, but she wanted to eat it!

If she didn't eat, she wouldn't even have the strength to work. Was she just going to sit here wasting her time with Aunt Cui?!

Su-Er was stupefied as she stuffed the rice into her mouth. Her resentment towards Aunt Cui gradually deepened, and she began to envy her for getting on good terms with Madam Feng.

At night, the wind began to blow, causing the dilapidated doorframe of the manor to clink.

Surveying the dark courtyard, Soo'er turned back to look at Aunt Cui, who was still sitting blankly. She wrapped up her clothes and curled up on the small bed, ready to go to sleep.

There was only an old cook in the manor who was lazy and adulterous. She disappeared as soon as she finished cooking. That lame old man was even more lazy to see her all day, even the courtyard was cleaned by her. She had to recuperate her energy, because she still had a bunch of work to do tomorrow!

She was awakened by a sudden gust of wind.

She suddenly opened her eyes and found that the door on the fence had been opened. A dark figure was standing not too far away. She was so frightened that she almost screamed. Fortunately, the candles in the room were not extinguished. When she saw who it was, she covered her mouth with all her might and did not disturb them.

It was a tall man with a scar on his neck.

He had a pair of angle-shaped eyes, and the way he looked at others was vulgar. When he didn't speak, he gave off a sinister feeling.

Chu'e shrank back and glanced over at Aunt Cui. She saw that she was still in a daze, and the man had already opened his mouth. "How are you going to take care of this little girl!?" "If it wasn't for the fact that I'm worried, I would like to have a look. You're courting death by acting like this."

The man opened his mouth and scolded her. Soo'er was so angry that her face turned red. He thought to himself, "What the hell are you to scold her for?" When the man saw that she didn't dare to say anything, he smiled sinisterly. He ignored her and stood in front of Aunt Cui. "I heard the news outside. Even your man doesn't want you. I'm the only one who can help you now."

Aunt Cui, who was like a block of wood, finally had a flash in her eyes …
