Chapter 235 - 235: Only An Unknown Pot Is Left (2)
The items inside were all distributed. They were not valuable items, but they were all necessities for life. For example, rice, flour, grain, and oil were all here. There was not much, but for the people on this street, they could still eat for a period of time.
From this point of view, Chen Yan understood this very well. If he wanted to give something valuable, it would instead cause the effect of having a treasure.
However, if he changed his mind and sent some necessities, he could solve his needs in time and avoid a lot of trouble.
After delivering the things, Chen Yan put away the cloth that was originally wrapped in his hand and turned around, preparing to return the way he came.
Although he walked with his head held high and chest out, his eyes subconsciously looked down. From this small movement, it could be seen that Chen Yan sometimes looked very unconfident.
After taking two or three steps, Chen Yan stopped. He looked at the three people in front of him and was slightly surprised.
“Lord Yun?”
Among them, he only knew Yun Zihai. In fact, all the families in Yunlai
Mansion had already explained Yun Zihai’s appearance to the various disciples in the family.
After all, this was a prefecture token. Many families had already done their homework before coming.
Some even planned to establish a good relationship with Yun Zihai in advance, so it was very normal for Chen Yan to know Yun Zihai.
“Let’s talk somewhere else.” Yun Zihai only nodded slightly and pointed at the street beside him.
On the street, there was a small alley that was unique. It looked remote and dilapidated, and no one passed by.
Chen Yan was obviously stunned. He scratched his head, not knowing why he would meet Yun Zihai here.
He also did not know why Yun Zihai suddenly looked for him and asked him to go to a remote alley to chat.
However, since the person in front of him had already spoken, Chen Yan naturally did not dare to say anything more. He could only turn around obediently and follow behind them, walking towards the remote alley.
Most of the people in Yunlai Manor had never seen Yun Zihai’s appearance before. After all, Yun Zihai had not been here for long.
The commoners were not really concerned about these things. They were more concerned about trivial matters such as food, clothing, housing, and transportation.
They didn’t care what the new Prefecture Magistrate looked like at all, much less care.
Therefore, Chen Yan followed Bai and the others, and the surrounding commoners just looked around.
After the few of them walked to a remote alley, Chen Yan turned around. His eyes remained lowered as he asked the question in his heart.
“Lord Yun, may I know why you have come to find me?”
Perhaps it was because he had been on this street for a long time, even when he returned to the Chen family, he still maintained this humble appearance. Sometimes, a person’s character was formed from a young age, and Chen Yan was the same.
Even if his life became better and he had a luxurious life, his personality would still be the same for a short period of time. There would not be much change.
Xu Bai pretended to cough and looked up at the sky with his hands behind his back, looking indifferent.
He was only here to be a helper and not to take the lead. At this time, it was better for Yun Zihai to ask.
Chu Yu looked left and right, then took a step back and hid behind Xu Bai.
“So boring…” Chu Yu thought to herself.
She had thought that it was something new, but it didn’t seem to be that new.
Seeing Xu Bai’s expression, Yun Zihai could only say helplessly,””Do you deliver grain, oil, and rice here every day?”
Chen Yan was stunned and nodded subconsciously, admitting it. After he reacted, he could not help but hesitate,”Sir, I don’t seem to have violated the laws of Great Chu, right?”
“That’s not it. I just think that you’re a grateful person, but what you did was not quite right.”Yun Zihai smiled. “It’s a temporary solution, but this situation will only last for a short time. Do you want them to completely escape from their current predicament?””
Chen Yan was in a state of confusion and said in a daze,”l want to, but I can’t do anything about what you’re saying, Lord Yun. I don’t have such great ability at all. ”
What he said was the truth. He really wanted to solve these difficulties, but he didn’t have the ability. What he was doing now was just some insignificant things that were enough for him to do a little bit.
“You don’t have it, but I do.” Yun Zihai said,” This official can govern himself now in order to solve the needs of the people, but this official needs your help now.
When Chen Yan heard this, he was even more puzzled.”l am alone, how can I help Lord Yun?”
He was just a person who had just returned to the Chen family. Before he returned to the Cheng family, he was still a part of this place.
“Have you learned the art of paper binding?” Yun Zihai asked.
Chen Yan nodded.” I’ve just come into contact with it these few days. I’ve already entered the door, but I’m not very proficient. ‘”‘
“If I tell you that there is an unstable factor in the Chen family, which will affect the crisis of Yunlai Mansion, and I need your help, will you be willing?”Yun Zihai continued.
Chen Yan was stunned on the spot. After a while, he recovered. After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and nodded hard.”l agree!”
Xu Bai stood beside them and listened to their conversation. He had no intention of interrupting.
It was only when Yun Zihai expressed his thoughts directly that he raised his eyebrows..
