Reborn girl from poor family

Chapter 15 Exchanging secrets (1)

Su Ya is still too tender.

Yes, she is indeed calmer than her peers, but it depends on who she is compared to.

Shen Huai did not follow him intentionally this time, but when he found Su Ya in Xie Youlin's ancestral house, the situation was indeed too strange.

"You went to spy on an old man changing his clothes?"

Shen Huai's eyes were complicated as he looked at Su Ya, a little hard to accept: How could the girl who ran away in shame after hearing the noise in someone's bedroom a few days ago become so wretched after a year?

"Who was peeping?!"

Su Ya's face turned red at this moment. She was not a slave of Zhou's house, and she didn't care that she had just been rescued by Shen Huai. She waved her hands and turned around and left.

After walking for a while, she felt her heartbeat calming down, and then she began to think about the situation just now.

The person who discovered her tonight was the skinny old man seen in the teahouse, Xie Youlin, a doctor in the Ministry of Personnel.

Although Xie Youlin's return to his hometown to pay homage to his ancestors was low-key, it was not a secret. Su Ya easily met him again at Cadu's Mansion, so it was natural to visit Xie's Mansion at night.

In the past few days, she had been recalling the situation when she met Xie Youlin in her previous life, in front of the government office, in a large family home where the victims and victims of the explosion were... She recalled it countless times, and Xie Youlin's thin figure gradually overlapped with her memory before her death.

They have similar heights, similar body shapes, and similar sinister eyes.

All that's left is a scar on his arm to prove it.

But in the first month of the year, it is bone-chillingly cold, and Huai'an's water system is developed. The cold is also chilly, and everyone can wear as thick a layer of clothing as they want. They wish they could wrap their faces with a layer of fur. How can they have the chance to see an extra inch of skin?

Su Ya squatted in Xie's house for three consecutive nights, and finally waited until Xie Youlin took a shower.

Originally, she had sneaked into the bathroom in advance, so she could just wait until Xie Youlin finished washing before leaving. Anyway, don't look at anything inappropriate, and besides, the old man had nothing to see.

But the old man was old-hearted and even brought a thin Yangzhou horse to change clothes. Just before a pear tree was about to overwhelm the begonias, Su Ya had seen everything she should see, but she couldn't bear the things she shouldn't see. I couldn't keep my eyes open any longer, so I was ready to sneak away.

In a panic, she accidentally kicked over the water ladle on the ground and was discovered!

The woman's voice was so high and shrill that shouts of shouting and questioning arose one after another in Xie's house. Su Ya was ashamed and embarrassed, so scared that she ran around in panic and walked into a dead end alley.

He was about to be caught in a trap, but luckily he was saved by Shen Huai.

It is said that this is the second time she has used Shen Huai to escape. Could this person be her lucky star?

"He's leaving now? And he's not even saying thank you?"

Shen Huai's voice sounded nearby, frightening Su Ya, "Why are you still here?"

"I'm waiting for you to say thank you."

Su Ya could see that Shen Huai's Qinggong was far superior to hers. She couldn't run away or avoid it. Besides, she wasn't a ungrateful person.

Su Ya saluted seriously and said sincerely: "Master Meng rescued me twice. Su Ya made a note of it. I will definitely repay him if I have the opportunity in the future."

Shen Huai nodded, "There's no need to wait for the future, there is a chance to repay you now."

"...What do you want me to do?" Su Ya was not surprised. Shen Huai kept it secret but was willing to help Zhou Zhai, so he must have some agenda.

His skills are superior to his own, and his power seems to be superior to his own. And there is the Yan family behind him. He cannot hide from him, so it is better to simply speak clearly.

Shen Huai did not answer directly. He put his hands behind his hands and walked slowly. He didn't speak hastily or slowly, but he started another topic.

"Su Ya, you have been visiting Huai'an Mansion at night for a long time, and you must know a lot of secrets that others don't know. If I ask you to tell me all of them, I'm afraid you won't be willing, so why don't we make a deal."

Su Ya keenly caught the "night visit for a long time" in his words. Knowing that her whereabouts had long been exposed, she followed suit and said readily: "My knowledge is limited, and I don't know what value it has. Is it worth doing a deal with you?" ?”

She was asking what Shen Huai wanted.

Shen Huai turned to look at her and laughed, "You don't have to be self-effacing, and you don't have to be too defensive. I don't ask why you showed up in Zhou's house. In fact, I have already agreed to your need for safety."

Su Ya remained silent. What he said was true, but it was not impossible and it was also a trap.

She weighed in her mind that it was easy to explain her presence in Zhou's house. As long as Grandma Sun was not exposed, she would be confident. She might as well listen to what he said first.

"I heard that you and Grandma Sun inquired privately and were very concerned about why I came to Huai'an alone to celebrate the New Year."

"...!"

It turns out that Grandma Sun has also been exposed?

Su Ya opened her mouth, but in the end she said nothing. The other party named her with such certainty that she had no way to explain. She could only wait for the other party to play his cards.

Shen Huai couldn't hear the compliment and didn't take it seriously. He continued, "Let me answer you: That's because I don't want to go home with injuries for fear of worrying my family."

The medicinal fragrance on his body was still there. Su Ya saw with her own eyes the medicinal materials and medicine jars that were carried in Zhou's house for free, and felt that this reason was at least three-thirds true.

Comparatively, if she was injured, she must not want to worry Yan. If she had a place and a reason to hide, she might wait until she recovered before going back. But Yan would definitely not accept it.

"What reason did you use that your family would accept?"

This little girl is very good at making things happen. She is not impatient when her behavior is exposed, and she can find a gentle content when she opens her mouth.

With such a high degree of cooperation, Shen Huai couldn't help but smile, "Well, it's not just a temporary excuse. I've been traveling abroad for several years and I can't make it back in time, so that makes sense."

"Then you must have run into trouble while traveling."

"Yes, I was tricked and almost poisoned to death," Shen Huai snorted, remembering that Zhao Qing was particularly unhappy, "I had to come to Huai'an to seek medical treatment."

"Is it poison? Has it been cured?"

"not yet."

It was almost the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and a bright moon was in the sky. Shen Huai looked up and felt that the suffocation stuck in his heart actually felt better after he said it, "The person who harmed me will retaliate with kindness, because he is afraid that I will cause trouble for him in the future, so Now he wants to mobilize his connections in Huai'an to block my path to detoxification."

"...So, you want to find out that person's trump card in Huai'an?" Su Ya stopped and asked tentatively.

"Yeah, otherwise, I can only wait to die, and that's not possible." Shen Huai actually smiled easily.

"Just news?" Su Ya asked confirmingly.

She recalled the stack of topographic maps of the city and surrounding villages that Shen Huai had lured her to draw, and confirmed that she had indeed fallen into someone else's trap.

"Accurate news." Shen Huai emphasized the word "accurate" very seriously.

Thinking of those topographic maps mixed with water, Su Ya was slightly shocked, "I didn't know you had such a use."

She thought for a while and asked, "You just want me to tell you the news, right? I have a family, so I really can't take risks for you."

At this moment, everything was leaking. Why didn't you be more careful when you hid in someone's bathroom and peeped, but then ran out in the middle?

Shen Huai gave a short laugh: "What else do you think you can do? In the past, you could come and go freely in Huai'an City, partly because your Qinggong was really good, and partly because you didn't encounter any really tight security."

Su Ya was a little unconvinced. She had touched him in prison before, okay?

Shen Huai glanced at her and knew what she was thinking, but he didn't reveal it. She still didn't understand what she meant by being heavily guarded. In fact, judging from the reaction of Xie Mansion just now, there was already one in Huai'an City.

But, is Xie Youlin, a fifth-rank doctor in the official department, worthy of such a grand occasion?

I changed my writing style today, and I probably met the most gentle and kind-hearted editor in the world!

I fell in love with this cover at first sight. It’s so atmospheric, full of story, and so eye-catching!

Let’s update, one chapter first, then another chapter at 22:00, if you can’t control it, another chapter at midnight (this cannot be guaranteed), hahaha!
