213, Old Gardener

"Aunt Xiaoyue, Aunt Xiaoyue, I want Aunt Xiaoyue," Di Hong couldn't stop crying, he knew that this might be the last time he said goodbye to Liu Xiaoyue in his life.

"Aren't you going with us? don't you want Hong'er?"

"I'm from here, my surname is Lie, where else can I go? You go, don't come back if you go, there is no good person in the Lie family. They just want the blood of your Di family. ”

Liu Xiaoyue gritted her silver teeth and said strongly: "If you don't leave now, I'm afraid it will be too late for a while." ”

"That is here to spy on you, I've knocked her unconscious. I can take you away. You trust me. Taking Liu Xiaoyue's hand, I pleaded with her again. Just like when she begged her to leave the Shen family with me.

That time she chose to believe me, and this time, I hope she still believes in me.

She shook her head desperately, breaking free from my hand, she retreated to the corner excitedly, and said with a crying voice: "You go, my surname is Lie, we are destined to never be together." Your second grandfather killed my grandfather, otherwise, our branch would not have ended up like today. ”

I was stunned for a moment, I never expected that she was the descendant of the Lie family who was killed by my second grandfather.

With a buzzing in my ears, I smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe I'm not qualified to say this, but I still hope you can leave with me." If I take Hong'er away, they won't let you go. You go out with me, the sky is high and the earth is wide, let you gallop. ”

"It's the same everywhere," she smiled wryly, biting her lip lightly, looking at me and sighing, "It's the same everywhere without that person." ”

"Xiaoyue, come with me, it's still too late. ”

"It's too late, you can't fight the Lie family, everyone here knows me, take me, you don't want to go out for the rest of your life. Liu Xiaoyue's mood fluctuated again.

There was a bang, and I saw her pick up a large pair of scissors used by the gardener to prune the branches leaning against the corner, and said in a resolute tone: "You leave immediately, take Hong'er with you, and never come back." ”

"Xiaoyue, what are you going to do?" I stepped forward, for fear that she would hurt herself.

There was a faint cry for help outside the door, and it was the who had woken up.

Liu Xiaoyue carried scissors and ran out in horror.

I heard a dull blow, and when I walked out of the room, I saw the woman, whose face was covered in blood, and fell to the ground again, not knowing whether she was dead or alive.

"Are you leaving?" reversing the scissors, she stabbed her tender chest fiercely.

The blood suddenly flowed down the scissors, and the big scissors fell to the ground with a clatter.

I hurriedly stepped forward to help me up.

She picked up the scissors again and staggered back a few steps.

This time, she resolutely put the sharp edge of the scissors on her neck, gritted her teeth and said, "If you don't leave, I will die to show you." ”

"Okay, I'll go," I gritted my teeth, closed my eyes in pain, and when I opened them again, Liu Xiaoyue was already in tears.

"Aunt Li's husband is a gardener, and he cuts branches behind that rockery, and shows him this, and he can help you get out through the back door. ”

As she spoke, Liu Xiaoyue tore off a red rope hanging from her snow-white neck and threw it to me.

I caught it with one hand, and saw that it was a small silver lock, on which was engraved the blessing of longevity. In the corner, there is also a faint plum character.

"You must take good care of Hong'er and find him a gentle mother. ”

Tears couldn't stop rolling in my eyes and hers. Putting away the silver lock, I turned and walked towards the stone wall.

I had mixed feelings in my heart, and the endless guilt for Liu Xiaoyue hit my heart like a tide again.

But reason told me I had to get out first.

If even Di Hong can't be taken out, then taking Liu Xiaoyue away is simply a fantasy.

Passing through the rockery, I saw a dark-faced old man, standing on a herringbone ladder, pruning a bush by himself.

He was not surprised to see me coming, holding Di Hong in his arms.

I pulled the silver lock out of my pocket and reached out to show him.

He had a slight discoloration on his face and came down the herringbone ladder. Stretched out his hand to take the silver lock, and when he saw the small Li character under the blessing, there was a sense of mission in his eyes. Said in a deep voice, "What do you want me to do for you?"

"Get us out of here safely. I said in surprise.

I don't know what kind of magic this silver lock has, but it must have some special meaning for this old man who has been through the vicissitudes of life.

Without saying a word, he motioned for me to follow him.

Passing through a bush, he whispered, "You must have come in from the direction of the villa." ”

"How do you know," I was curious.

I only heard him say: "In addition to the wall in the direction of the villa, the other three walls are all connected with high-voltage current, if you climbed the wall from elsewhere, you would have been electrocuted a long time ago." On the villa side, because it is an interior wall, there is no electricity. ”

I was secretly glad that I still had palpitations when I looked at a wall not far away.

"Children can't cry," he said emotionlessly.

I stroked Di Hong's shoulders and injected some true qi into a few of his acupuncture points. He stretched his limbs and soon fell into a deep sleep.

"Are you a descendant of the Five Classics?" the old man's eyes were like knives, looking at me, startling me.

I didn't expect that a little gardener would actually know the Five Classics of Yuhan. What's even more amazing is that when he looks up, he knows that I have a different method.

Looking at my shocked expression, he retracted the glint in his eyes and sighed softly, "Hey, everything doesn't matter anymore." It's old, it's not my world anymore. ”

He took Dihong from my arms and gently placed him in the cart loaded with branches. With a dilapidated wooden plank, Di Hong was covered, and a lot of pruned branches were piled up on it. Then he looked at me and said, "Boy, when someone asks, you say that it is my nephew, named Li Sanwa, who came in as an apprentice." ”

He looked up at me again and said, "You don't look like this dress, you have to change it." ”

With that, he turned and went into the hut, took out a set of shabby overalls from it, threw it to me, and said, "Put it on." ”

I nodded, went into the house and changed into the work clothes, and then sent a text message to both Uncle Six and Zheng Xiongqi.

"Sixth uncle, you must leave immediately. ”

"Xiongqi, come to the back door of the Liejia Garden to meet me. ”

Put away your phone and walk out the door.

I followed the old gardener and walked slowly along the bluestone path.

After walking through the willows and walking for half an hour, I saw a wide lintel behind a faint rockery.

The old man pushed the cart and walked calmly towards the gate.

My heart almost jumped to my throat.

If God blesses me, let me pass this hurdle safely, and he will be rewarded one day.

I silently made a wish in my heart. Unhurriedly follow the old gardener, step by step.

"Uncle Li, who is this, so handsome?"

"Oh, this is my nephew," said the old gardener, pulling a cigarette out of his pocket. Give two bodyguards one by one. Glancing at me, he reprimanded loudly: "Li San, it's not called Brother Chen, Brother Zhang." ”

"Brother Chen is good, Brother Zhang is good. "I was as nervous as a schoolboy, but it was this nervousness that made me feel more and more like a mountain man who had never been in the world.

"Brother, don't be nervous, your Brother Chen and Brother Zhang will cover you in the future. The bodyguard, surnamed Chen, tapped me on the shoulder.
