"Second sister, you're back!" Xiaohe leaned down from the bed, "Hey, second sister, why are there birds and puppies?"

Lin Yiran smiled and replied: "Little bird, second sister is useful. The puppy is for you. Do you like it?"

Lin Xiaohe stood in front of Lin Yiran and said pursingly, "Second sister, but what should we use to support it?"

"Uh..." This is exactly the headache for Lin Yiran, and she sighed, "Shere with us, it will eat whatever we eat!"

"But..." Lin Xiaohe was unhappy when he thought of the puppy fighting with him and did not take the puppy from Lin Yiran. He took care of himself and moved a small wooden pier in front of the stove. He stood on the small wooden pier and uncovered the lid of the pot, took out the spread cakes and fried cabbage, "Second sister, have a meal!"

"Okay!" Lin Yiran put down the bird cage, took some millet for it, pulled the thatch and made a nest for the puppy. After finishing her work, she went to wash her hands and have dinner.

Lin Yiran said while eating a pancake, "Brother, sister, I'm going out later. Are you afraid of being alone at home?"

Lin Xiaohe raised his head uneasyly, but said, "Don't be afraid--"

Lin Yiran reached out and touched his younger brother's head, and said to him, "Brother, after completing this business, my sister will have money to spend the winter. Throughout the winter, we can nest here warmly, eat and drink, okay?"

"Second sister, you are so capable!" Lin Xiaohe smiled.

"Eat!" Lin Yiran smiled. This child is smart and sensible, so good!

Lin Xiaohe pursed his lips, "That father and mother..."

Lin Yiran raised her eyes, "Second sister thought about looking for it after winter. Do you think it's okay?"

Lin Xiaohe thought for a while before nodding, "Okay, I'll listen to my second sister!"

Lin Yiran sighed secretly. It was not that she didn't go out to look for her, but that she was afraid of this troubled times and had no clues. Maybe she and her younger brother could be in trouble. It would be better to search for her slowly after the winter is safe and secure. I hope my parents don't blame her.

After finishing the meal, Ma lit an angered lamp and sent them out. Ma Tusan took the angered lamp and said to his wife, "Go in now!"

"Come back early!"

"I understand, talkative!"

Lin Yiran said to Ma, "Sister Ma, be careful and close the door."

Ma nodded.

Lin Xiaohe was in the rental house, listening to the second sister's footsteps gradually fading away until he couldn't hear it. He sighed like an adult, checked the door bolt, walked to the puppy, squatted down, reflected on the dim oil lamp, looked at the yellow and white puppy, and said to himself, "The second sister is more courageous than before..."

The puppy stared at him with round eyes, as if he was a child, naughty and cute.

"But... it seems that the second sister is better now,..." Lin Xiaohe smiled foolishly, "If I knew that my second sister was more brave than a man, would I be angry!"

The puppy made a low chirping sound like a child, as if responding to Lin Xiaohe's words.

Like his second sister, Lin Xiaohe stretched out and touched the puppy's head, "Maybe, such a second sister can support you."

The puppy stretched out his tongue and licked his hand, causing him to giggle, and the night seemed less terrible.

A restaurant in Yingcheng

Xia Zongze took off his usual military uniform, changed into regular clothes, and looked like he was about to go out. Chu Fengzhang said, "Third Brother, you dress like this, where are you going?"

"I'll meet Hu Heijiu!"

“Where?”

"Cuihong Building!"

Chu Fengzhang looked disgusted, "Why are you going to such a broken place? You should go to Zuihualou even if you want to."

Xia Zongze looked at the fifteen-year-old Chu Fengzhang deeply, and made him feel guilty, "Third brother, don't look at me, aren't you just over the age of twentieth?"

Xia Zongze smiled softly, "I heard that your ambition is the best Red Building in the world?"

Chu Fengzhang approached him and raised his eyebrows proudly: "How is it, Brother Xia, live a happy life!"

"Happy!" Xia Zongze replied with a straightforward look.

"Haha, I'll go to the top Zuihualou in Yingxian County to meet the top Zuihong Cherry blossoms." Chu Fengzhang laughed wildly, full of energy, and he was such a romantic and handsome nobleman.

Xia Zongze shook his head with a smile.

Sixi pushed the door and came in from outside. When she saw Chu Fengzhang standing aside, she didn't speak.

Xia Zongze asked: "What's the matter?"

Sixi replied: "Go back to the young master, the people of Pingguo went to Cuihonglou."

Xia Zongze's eyes tightened and said, "Let's find a way to let them leave."

"Yes!" After Sixi replied, she quickly left the restaurant.

The ancient Yingcheng slowly fell asleep in the cold dew in the dark night. The cold sky was covered with small stars, and the cold light was emitted from time to time. Lanterns were scattered in the streets and alleys, including wine shops, inns, casinos, and brothel kilns.

Su Dayi hid under the night and watched Lin Yiran carry a bird cage into a medium-sized brothel. He looked up at the name of the brothel - Cuihonglou. After waiting for a while, he saw that no one was paying attention, and he also entered the brothel as a client.

When he entered, Lin Yiran was already being entrusted by the brothel's madam and chattered to introduce him to the prostitutes who were serving him.

In the corridor on the second floor, a young man with a servant looked like a servant walked from the corridor to the other end of the corridor alertly. He stopped at the door of a private room on the street. He quickly looked inside and then walked away as if nothing had happened.

In another private room, the young servant gently pushed the door and bowed to the young man in the main seat, "Young Master, you are inside!"

"Well, are the Ping Guoren still here?"

"Young Master, we have cheated people from Ping Guo, only him and the prostitute."

"knew!"

Downstairs lobby

Lin Yiran smiled slightly: "Mom, I'm not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry?"

The madam smirked: "Haha...Amn't I afraid of the young master's in a hurry? Chunxiao is worth a thousand gold at a moment, young master!"

Lin Yiran waved the fan and smiled, "No, no..."

"Young Master, you..." The madam could not find out what the boy's intentions were, and secretly raised her vigilance.

Lin Yiran said with a smile when she didn't see the other party's question, "Mom, call out all your daughters that you can take out."

The madam looked at Lin Yiran's dress again, half old and not new indigo robe, without a piece of jewelry on her body, and thought to herself, was she a dilapidated house with a big head? Her eyebrows were raised high, and her voice was a little sharp, "This young man, although my Cuihonglou cannot be said to be one of the best in Yingxian County, it also costs money..."

"Tsk tsk, mom, look at what you said, can I still short your money?" Lin Yiran smiled gracefully, lit the bird cage of Ma Tusan carrying with a fan, and said, "Mom, see what this is?"

The madam leaned forward slightly, glanced at her and said, "Yellow Bird?"

Lin Yiran gently tapped her left hand with the fan in her right hand, "Mom, look carefully!"

When Lin Yiran said this, not only the madam was interested, but also other clients were interested. They all came forward and knocked Ma Tusan's hand, "Rise it high and let everyone see!"
