As soon as dawn broke out, Song Ruoxi was awakened by the fragrance of rice dumplings all over the yard.

The customs of Dragon Boat Festival are similar in all countries. They eat rice dumplings, hang mugwort and calamus on the door, fight with herbs, and wear sachets. The most lively dragon boat race is indispensable.

The dragon boat race that climbed Yingcheng was held in Qingyi River beside Qichun Garden. Song Ruoxi did not go there, and the Zhaoping County Lord's stomach was uncomfortable. Ye Fan and Ye Shuhua wanted to finish the highlights of the dragon boat and could not be missed. Song Ruoxi and Ye Shuting took the initiative to stay and take care of Zhaoping County Lord, and the father and son were relieved to leave the city.

The reason why the Zhaoping County Master’s stomach was uncomfortable is that she was greedy in the morning. The rice dumplings made by Silkworm Girl were small and solid, and tasted very delicious. She ate one salted egg yolk, chestnut and chicken rice dumpling. Although glutinous rice can warm the spleen and stomach and nourish the middle qi, it is sticky and difficult to digest. It is not advisable to eat too much at one time. Especially the stomach of Zhaoping County Master is not good and cannot be dissolved by eating too much. Simply put, the Zhaoping County Master’s stomach is overcrowded and the stomach is bloated.

Song Ruoxi took the bowl handed over by calamus and said, "Mother, get up and drink some digestive tea, and your stomach will feel more comfortable."

Ye Shuting helped the Zhaoping County Lord sit up and stuffed the big stitch behind her.

The Zhaoping County Lord frowned slightly and asked Song Ruoxi to feed her the bowl of digestive tea. He pulled the silk palette and pressed the corner of his mouth, and said apologetically: "It's all my greed that caused trouble. You can't go out of the city to watch the dragon boat race. You have to stay and take care of me."

"The dragon boat race is not something that can only be seen this year, and it will be the same if you go to see it next year." Song Ruoxi smiled.

Ye Shuting helped the Zhaoping County Lord lie back on the bed and smiled and said, "If my mother doesn't go, it doesn't matter if we go."

The Zhaoping County Lord smiled, drank the digestive tea, and rested for a while, but his stomach was not so uncomfortable.

Seeing that her face improved, Ye Shuting suggested playing cards.

Setting up the table, the three of them played cards, Madam Zhou helped count.

Song Ruoxi was extremely lucky. Ten consecutive games were bad cards. The silver beans with the lottery that he watched helplessly ran into the box where Zhaoping County Lord and Ye Shuting were holding money.

"Sister-in-law, you haven't even put a single plate on it for so long." Ye Shuting put another plate on it, counted it, reached out to collect money from the two of them, and even made a statement to stimulate Song Ruoxi.

Song Ruoxi counted the silver beans and glared at her, saying that the girl would not open to the pot.

The Zhaoping County Lord smiled and said, "It's Yuxian's turn to release it."

After Song Ruoxi touched the cards, he wanted to throw them back to the table. What kind of shit card is this? It is either a second small or a big one, or a three small one. There is no big card or a beard. What should I put it on and continue to lose.

After playing until noon, he played dozens of plates, Song Ruoxi didn't put a single plate. The silver beans in the box lost only one. Looking at the empty box, he curled his lips and said, "I've lost all of them!"

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I'll let you set the book in the afternoon." Ye Shuting held the box and smiled so much that her almond eyes were bent into the shape of a moon bud.

Song Ruoxi and Ye Shuting accompanied the Zhaoping County Lord for lunch and took a nap in the green yarn cabinet.

After taking a nap, the three of them continued to wipe the cards. Song Ruoxi's luck was as bad as in the morning. She lost six consecutive games. The card was so bad that she almost suffered internal injuries. She said, "Xiangxiu, go pick grapefruit leaves and soak them in water to wash my hands."

"Sister-in-law, why do you need to use grapefruit leaves to wash your hands?" Ye Shuting asked.

The Zhaoping County Lord smiled and helped Ye Shuhua solve his doubts: "It is said that washing your hands with water soaked in grapefruit leaves will make your luck better."

"Xiangxiu goes and pick grapefruit leaves. If you lose, my sister-in-law will cry!" Ye Shuting joked with a smile.

Song Ruoxi asked, "I will cry if I lose so much. Am I such a stingy person?"

Ye Shuting smiled, "No, my sister-in-law is the biggest one. Sister-in-law, you lose more to me."

Song Ruoxi spat lightly, "You want to get beauty."

"Xiangxiu, there are pomelo trees planted in Zhuluanyuan. I will accompany you to pick them." Calamari smiled.

Two maids took people to pick grapefruit leaves.

However, the pomelo leaves soaked in water still did not wash away Song Ruoxi's bad luck. She lost, but lost. Until Shen Shizheng and Yefan came back, she still didn't give up any of them and lost completely.

Everyone stood up and saluted Ye Fan.

"I'm playing with cards, how about winning or losing?" Ye Fan asked everyone with a smile and asked.

The Zhaoping County Lord smiled and said, "Yuxian is losing alone."

When Ye Shuhua saw Song Ruoxi pouting, he asked with a smile: "How much did you lose?"

"Two boxes of silver beans." Song Ruoxi looked at the box that was about to be empty again and said frustratedly.

"I have only lost two boxes, no more, don't you have more, you can continue playing." Ye Fan smiled and turned around to the bedroom to change his clothes.

The maids hurriedly followed in and served.

The Zhaoping County Lord smiled and said, "There is still one hour before dinner, let's continue."

The result of continuing was that Song Ruoxi lost no silver beans left, and his wealth was gone and people were happy. Seeing that it was getting late, he left Yefan and Zhaoping County Lord, and returned to Shuyuyuan with Ye Shuhua.

"It's all your fault!" Song Ruoxi blamed Ye Shuhua for losing the card.

Ye Shuhua sat down on the couch, hugged her long arms, hugged her in her arms, and smiled and said, "You will lose if you are not lucky. Just wait until your luck is good, and then go and win back."

"The reason why I'm not lucky is that you asked me to use it last night... for you." Song Ruoxi reached out and twisted it around his waist, "It made my hands so sore, and I couldn't even catch good cards."

"There is such a saying." Ye Shuhua's face turned slightly red and leaned into her ears, "Yingying, you are so bad, you deliberately messed with me and teased me."

"I just did that, you were just like that, it was because you didn't have enough self-control." Song Ruoxi glanced at him coquettishly and shirked responsibility.

"I have no self-control in front of you." Ye Shuhua kissed her on the cheek.

Song Ruoxi smiled with her lips, played for a while, and passed the supper in.

As night falls, the noisy city of Dengying gradually becomes quiet.

Su Nianjin sat under the candlelight and read a book. The maid cut off a wick with scissors to make the light brighter, and said, "Girl, you can rest for a while. It's been almost an hour."

"Have you been reading for so long?" Su Nianjin put down the book, covered her mouth and yawned, turned around and looked out the window. A faint moonlight fell, and the tireless insects in the garden were still chirping. The evening was so quiet and beautiful, and the leaves swayed in the wind.

Suddenly, a dagger flew in from outside the window. Su Nianjin subconsciously avoided the side, lost his balance and fell from the chair. The dagger shot the candlelight on the table to the ground, and the room was sunk into darkness.

"Girl!" the maid shouted in panic.

Su Nianjin lay on the ground, still in shock, wanted to respond, but couldn't make a sound.

"Girl, how are you? Are you doing? Are you injured?" The maid asked anxiously by seeing Su Nianjin lying on the ground without moving under the moonlight outside the window.

"I'm fine, not hurt." Su Nianjin's voice trembled. It should be someone sent by her aunt. They would not let her go so easily. They slowly climbed under the window and looked out carefully. The moonlight in the yard was like water and the shadows of trees were swaying. There was no figure. Was the killer who shot the dagger hidden in the dark waiting for the opportunity to take action, or had he left if he missed a single blow?

At this moment, a faint sound came.

"Girl, someone is here!" the maid said excitedly.

Su Nianjin sat back on the ground, holding her face with her hands. Her aunt was warning her that if she was disobedient and insisted on running for the election, her aunt would send someone to take her life next time! She hid her aunt and ignored her face to show her goodwill. She only came to this point by chance. She would never look back. She could not sit back like this.

The maid picked up the candle from the ground in the dark and lit it. The light was seen again in the house. She stepped forward and helped Su Nianjin who was slumped on the ground. She went to pull out the dagger inserted on the table, and the dagger didn't move at all. "Girl, what should I do?"

Su Nianjin looked at the cold dagger, her eyes turned and said, "Don't move it."

When the maid heard the steps coming here, she asked anxiously: "How do you explain this later?"

"Tell the truth." Su Nianjin covered Han Shuang with a mask. She would not give them another chance to control her. She walked to the door, opened the door, ran out, and threw herself into the arms of the nanny in charge, "Madam, help!"

"Miss Su, what happened?" The nanny in charge supported her.

"Someone wanted to kill me just now, but fortunately the nanny came in time, otherwise I would have died in his hands." Su Nianjin cried.

The guards rushed into the room, and the dagger inserted on the table confirmed Su Nianjin's statement. Su Nianjin is now a distinguished guest from Yi Kingdom. If something happened to her, the Yi Kingdom will take the opportunity to cause trouble.

After Ye Fan learned about it, he strengthened the guards of Xiangyuan. Thinking of Mrs. Chen's purpose of taking Su Nianjin into the city, he also remembered that Wei Lingjuan had come to the city to deliver rice dumplings the day before yesterday. The county lord Zhaoping asked her to visit Mrs. Chen, and immediately sent someone to call Ye Xiao'an and asked, "Did you send the person who assassinated the Su family?"

Ye Xiaoan knelt down on one knee and said, "Father, Su is also considered her son's cousin. His son will not do such a crazy thing. Please give him a good idea."

"Xiao'an, you should know what the consequences of deceiving me! I'll ask you again, were you sent by the person who assassinated the Su family?" Ye Fan's voice was filled with a cold anger.

Ye Xiaoan shook his body, and the defense line in his heart was crushed by Ye Fan's powerful aura. "It's... a person from the son's mission. The son didn't want to kill her, but the son just followed the concubine's mother's intention to warn her."

Anger flashed in Ye Fan's eyes, "Xiao'an, how old are you this year?"

Ye Xiaoan was stunned for a moment and replied, "My son is 31 years old this year."

"You are so old that you are so old that you still obey the woman's words and do such unwise things. You are so disappointed to be your father." Ye Fan no longer has hope for this concubine's son.

"Father!" Ye Xiaoan looked up at him.

"From the future, you will stay at the Angong Mansion and be your idle young master." Ye Fan once again deprived Ye Xiao'an of the right to go to court to follow the government and also confine him to the public mansion, which completely gave up on him.

"Father, my son knows that he is wrong. Please give him another chance." Ye Xiaoan kowtowed.

Ye Fan said coldly: "Get out, I don't want to see you again."

Ye Xiaoan knew that Ye Fan would do his best and asked for it too much. He stepped out of Wenlan Pavilion with a dead face and walked along the bluestone road in dismay. He did not notice that behind the bamboo fence beside the pavilion, his eyes were always staring at him.
