"Don't worry, I will be careful."
"Well, don't worry too much about Master Lin. Zhaoyue increased his guards before leaving, and he's also on guard. He'll be fine."
Having said that, Xu Jiang was still worried.
Seeing that she was a little uneasy, he said, "It's time for dinner. Your aunt must be waiting anxiously. Let's go over."
Thinking of Madam Lou, the worry on Xu Jiang's face finally faded a little. "Okay."
The two of them then went to the inner house. Just as they reached the second gate, they saw Liu Mei coming towards them.
"Master, Madam Xu." She bowed to them and said with a smile, "I was just about to invite you, and I'm here right now. Dinner is served by the Fenghe Pond, and Madam has already gone."
Lou Jing nodded and then quickened his pace, "Let's go now."
Xu Jiang couldn't help but smile when he saw this and hurried to follow.
After the meal, Lou Jing wanted to accompany his wife to stroll in the garden to digest the food, while Xu Jiang went back to her own courtyard with Yin Yin.
As the two were walking through the corridor, they met Lou Yunchun's personal servant, who hurriedly called them to stop.
Yin Yin hummed: "What?"
The servant asked with a smile, "It's still early, Madam Xu, are you going back to your room to rest?"
Xu Jiang replied: "Well, I'm free anyway, so why not go back and rest early?"
Although they said they were taking a break, they couldn't really rest. She brought her suitcase and Yinyin brought her plain fan. They each had their own work to do.
The servant said, "If you feel bored, you can go to the young master's study to kill time. He has many books in his room, and since you own a bookshop, you will definitely find it interesting."
"Can I come in?" It would be inappropriate to enter his study without permission when he is not there.
"Of course you can come in." The servant added, "The master told you before he left that you can enter any of his rooms."
Xu Jiang felt a little itchy, as Lou Yunchun had a lot of treasures in his study.
Yin Yin pushed her waist and said, "Go ahead, Sister Xu. You can carve the board later. The night is still long."
Xu Jiang was easily persuaded, "Okay."
At the end of the corridor is Lou Yunchun's house. Xu Jiang had been here once, but she remembered all the layout and furnishings in the house, as well as every word Lou Yunchun said to her that day.
The servant pushed open the main hall door, then took out a tinderbox, went in and lit the lights in every room.
Xu Jiang walked around all the rooms and finally came to the study.
The servant lit the lamp and went out, and Yin Yin also stayed outside and did not go into the house.
In this room filled with broken shadows of spring clouds, Xu Jiang put aside all worldly concerns, picked up pieces of lovesickness, and put them together to form a moonlit night.
