225　　"I, I, I kowtow to apologize, and I will never get close to the master again!"

　　"Okay, go to sleep!"

　　As Yin Hongmei spoke, she wiped the scratched wound on her face with the back of her hand, went to bed, covered herself with the quilt, and went to sleep.

　　The three maids looked at Yin Hongmei and broke out in cold sweats. What kind of lunatic is this!

　　Cui Ju looked at Yin Hongmei hatefully and sat down on the chair. She didn't dare to sleep anymore.

　　She was afraid that if she fell asleep, she would never wake up again. She really wanted to kill herself just now.

　　Yin Hongmei was facing away from the three people at this time, with her eyes open and a look of neither joy nor sadness on her face. There was a piece of paper under her pillow, with only three words on it: [Yin Hongmei]

　　The lady taught her to write her own name.

　　Although the lady asked her to call her sister, she refused. However, she saw everything the lady did in the past two days and she really treated her like a younger sister.

　　And deep down, she really regarded the lady as her own sister.

　　Such a gentle and kind sister has many weaknesses.

　　She is gentle, so the servants think she is easy to bully. Kindness means that the lady does not have any drastic measures, so the servants will not be afraid of her.

　　Just like what happened today, a maid who entered the mansion dared to seduce the master so blatantly. If it is not curbed, what will happen in the future?

　　But she also knew that it would be difficult to make such a kind-hearted lady harden her heart.

　　So, since the lady couldn't bear to be cruel, she became the one to make the knife. She wanted to protect the lady, the sister who treated her like a younger sister.

　　…

　　Early in the morning, Chen Jie, Su Yunjin, Ruirui, and Xiaohu were sitting at the table eating.

　　Yin Hongmei stood aside, serving sideways.

　　Why did she turn sideways? Because she wanted to hide her injured face. She didn't want the lady to see her scratched face.

　　But Su Yunjin still saw it.

　　"Red plum."

　　"lady."

　　Su Yunjin said: "Come here, what about your face?"

　　"It's alright ma'am."

　　"It's all right, it's all broken, what happened? Did they have a fight?"

　　Su Yunjin pulled Yin Hongmei over and spoke with heartache.

　　The little kid at the side also said, "Oh, Sister Hongmei, your face must be hurting."

　　"Hehe, it's okay, miss."

　　Yin Hongmei replied.

　　"Husband, you eat first. I'll take Hongmei to the back to deal with it."

　　"Ah, ma'am, no, it's just a minor injury, you should eat first."

　　"It's just a minor injury. As a girl, your face is very important. Come, follow me."

　　Su Yunjin pulled Yin Hongmei and walked towards the back.

　　But at this moment, Aster suddenly rushed in and knelt on the ground with a bang.

　　Then he kowtowed three times to Su Yunjin. Everyone around was stunned. Su Yunjin also asked, "Cui Ju, what are you doing?"

　　Cui Ju cried, "Madam, I was wrong. I shouldn't have massaged Master's shoulders yesterday. I won't do it again. Please forgive me!"

　　Then he kowtowed three times.

　　Hu Zi was confused and the bun in his mouth no longer tasted good. What happened?

　　Ruirui was chewing the meat bun in his mouth, staring at Cuiju, not understanding what was wrong with massaging his brother-in-law's shoulders.

　　Chen Jie was stunned at first, then looked at Yin Hongmei standing beside him.

　　But she remained expressionless. Su Yunjin turned to look at Chen Jie.

　　Chen Jie picked up the bowl, blew on the porridge and pretended not to see it. There were some things that Su Yunjin had to learn to handle on her own. After all, she was the mistress of the house.

　　Although Su Yunjin was weak, he was not stupid. He looked at Cui Ju who was kneeling on the ground, and then at Hong Mei who had a wound on her face, as if he understood something.

　　At this time she said: "Oh, this matter has passed, there is no need to mention it again, you just need to do your work with all your heart."

　　"Okay, you go down first."

　　"Thank you, ma'am."

　　Cui Ju immediately kowtowed to express her gratitude.

　　Chen Jie didn't say a word from beginning to end.

　　On the other side, Su Yunjin nodded to Chen Jie and walked to the back with Yin Hongmei.

　　Xiaohu asked, "Brother, what happened yesterday?"

　　Chen Jie looked at him and said, "It's okay. By the way, Xiaohu, how old are you now? Isn't it time for you to get married? Which girl do you like? Tell me and I'll help you propose."

　　"Brother, don't worry about it. I just want to concentrate on practicing with my sword. A girl can only affect my speed in drawing the sword."

　　Chen Jie said: "You kid."

　　After that, Chen Jie said, "It just so happens that I have two good knives in my hand. Which one do you like? I'll give you one."

　　Chen Jie did have two good swords in his hand, one was Feng San's golden sword, and the other was the ring-handled sword used by Zheng Chuan.

　　They were all made with top-quality craftsmanship. After Chen Jie killed them, he collected all the weapons.

　　After hearing this, Xiao Hu said, "Haha, I want that ring-handled sword. The golden sword is too ostentatious."

　　Chen Jie said, "Okay, go to my study and get it later. Let's eat."

　　Chen explained and started eating.

　　At the same time, he recalled the information he had obtained last night.

　　Not many of the five pieces of intelligence yesterday were useful, but one of them gave me an idea.

　　One of the reports said: Ying Er, the second of his adoptive father Peng Shizhong's twelve Eagle Guards, the man who brought him into the mansion yesterday, was actually in collusion with Feng Xuan.

　　Intelligence shows that Ying Er and Feng Xuan grew up together. They had similar experiences, both coming from a refugee group and later being adopted by Peng Shizhong. Due to his lack of talent, Ying Er was incorporated into the Eagle Guard and was not adopted as a son.

　　However, Ying Er and Feng Xuan learned everything from Peng Shizhong.

　　They had a very close relationship in the past, but had become distant in the past two years. However, Ying Er secretly told Feng Xuan a lot of important information.

　　It can be said that Ying Er is Feng Xuan's man.

　　After reading the intelligence, Chen Jie was secretly shocked. Feng Xuan was really scary. He had even placed himself next to his adoptive father.

　　So is there anyone from Feng Xuan around me?

　　Chen Jie looked around him. Xiaohu and Zhou Chu would be fine. Su Yunjin and Ruirui would be even finer. However, these maids, servants, and yard workers might not be a problem.

　　It seems that I should be more cautious.

　　Thinking of this, I ate the buns much slower.

　　The White Tiger Hall may seem peaceful, but if you take a closer look, you will find that things are really turbulent underneath.

　　However, everything still depends on strength. As long as you are strong enough, you will have greater ability to resist risks.

　　Don't worry about these for now, just find a way to enter the state of Hua Jin.

　　The only thing I should do now is to quickly find the medicines needed for the [Hua Ling Dan]. The thirty-six auxiliary medicines should be enough, and the only things missing are the three main medicines.

　　[Jue Lingzi] I already have it.

　　[Spiritual Herb] Huang Wan'er said it to herself.

　　Now the only thing missing is the 500-year-old [Blood Ganoderma]. 500 years old...

　　Chen Jie felt a headache. The hundred-year-old blood ganoderma was very hard to find. Wu Zhong almost died in the gray fog for the hundred-year-old blood ganoderma.

　　And now they want a 500-year-old one.

　　It's not easy. Where can I find this 500-year-old blood Ganoderma lucidum?

　　Chen Jie rubbed his eyebrows.

　　…

　　Back hall.

　　Su Yunjin took out a medicine box, which contained some medicines prepared by Chen Jie.

　　Su Yunjin looked at Yin Hongmei's swollen wound.

　　Although there is a blood scab on it, it will probably leave a scar if it heals.

　　Su Yunjin first found a small wine jar inside, opened it, and smelled a strong smell of alcohol.

　　This is the high-proof liquor that Chen Jie distilled when he had nothing to do. It can be used as medical alcohol for disinfection.

　　Su Yunjin took the cotton ball and dipped it in some alcohol.

　　"It hurts a bit, bear with it."

　　Su Yunjin said to Yin Hongmei, and Yin Hongmei smiled and said, "It's okay."

　　Su Yunjin wiped Yin Hongmei's wound with an alcohol cotton ball to disinfect it, and then found the medicine prepared by Chen Jie.

　　Chen explained that the knife wound would not leave any scars.

　　He took a cotton ball, dipped it in some and applied it on Yin Hongmei's wound.

　　"You, why are you fighting with her? Huhu..."

　　Su Yunjin blew air on the wound and asked, "Does it hurt?"

　　"It doesn't hurt."

　　"You can't fight even if it doesn't hurt. You're so young, and they're sixteen or seventeen. You can't beat them."
