Chapter 290: Willow Garden
"Wow...... Woooooo
The big black dog barked at 6 Tao, and Xu Bo stepped forward and kicked it: "Heizi, don't bark!"
The big dog named Kuroko whimpered, hid to the side with his tail between his legs, and his eyes were still staring at 6 Tao, and he still turned his head to look at Uncle Xu, as if he didn't understand why the owner who usually treated him well would kick it.
Uncle Xu's granddaughter Xiao Yun hid behind Uncle Xu, poked out half of her head to look at 6 Tao, and when 6 Tao's eyes looked over, she shrank back like a frightened deer.
Coming to the side of the courtyard with 6 Tao, Uncle Xu kicked away the rooster lying on the ground and snoozing, and pushed open the door: "Brother 6 Tao, what do you think of this room? I'll ask Xiao Yun to bring you a new futon later." ”
6 Tao looked through the dim light of the day, and looked at the furnishings in the room, a bed, a table, and a chair, which were completely sufficient, and it seemed that the room was often cleaned, and there was no dust left on the ground, and everything was clean.
Seeing that 6 Tao seemed to be very satisfied, Xu Bo laughed: "Hehe, that's it, I usually help the restaurant transport wine during the day, and I will come back at night, 6 Tao brother, you go out or come back, and say to Xiao Yun in the main house, Xiao Yun, this is 6 Tao brother, you want to live in our house for a while, do you understand?"
The last sentence was said by Uncle Xu to the little girl hiding behind him, the little girl raised her eyes timidly to look at 6 Tao, and finally squeezed out a "Brother 6 Tao", and was covered by the two fighting roosters next to her.
6 Tao was thinking about another question, the folk customs here are really simple, so he brought himself home almost without asking anything, and let his granddaughter stay in the same yard as a stranger, what if the person who came was a human trafficker?
Shaking his head, 6 Tao decided to be more careful when he went to the palace to steal things, so as not to cause any trouble to the Xu Bo family because of his negligence.
After sitting in her room for a while, Xiao Yun came in with the futon, and the futon that was taller than Xiao Yun was held in her arms, and she couldn't even see anyone, 6 Tao quickly took the futon, but Xiao Yun ran away.
After a while, Xiao Yun ran back with a pillow and helped 6 Tao...... Or should it be said that 6 Tao helped Xiao Yun lay out the bedding, and Xiao Yun left the room.
6 Tao breathed a sigh of relief, lay on the bed, looked at Uncle Xu who was carrying a flat shoulder out of the door through the door that was not closed tightly, and began to plan for the evening.
......
The willow garden on the shore of Jinyang Lake was originally a dilapidated museum in Wuyang, which was bought by someone who did not know, and was repaired with tens of thousands of taels of silver, becoming a famous garden with strange water and stones, and interesting plants and trees.
Of course, although it is a famous garden, it is only a legend passed down by mouth in Wuyang, and at most, there are only a few words from the troupe that has entered it, so that people can understand some secrets that others don't know through a veil. However, in anyone's opinion, the area around Jinyang Lake, which is close to the imperial palace, is expensive, and the garden near here can be bought, whether it is power or money, the owner of this place is unique.
A clear water pond separates the willow garden from the avenue of Jinyang Lake, there is a delicate white marble stone bridge to connect, the stone bridge carver is new, the stone lion on it is lifelike, the ruts roll across the stone bridge, a middle-aged man lifts the curtain, shows the pass sign to the guard on duty, then opens the curtain, and looks at the beautiful scenery in the willow garden.
Stopping and dismounting, and asking a few words from the steward who rushed over, the middle-aged man walked forward quickly, passed through several corridors, and soon came to a courtyard.
This annex is mainly a clear small lake surrounded by blue tiles and white walls, there is a small island in the middle of the lake, build a pavilion, there is a small boat to ferry people to the island, usually sit idle and interesting, you can also invite the singing and dancing girls, the servants take a boat to perform on the stage, the lake is surrounded by exquisite corridors on three sides, for people to sit across the lake to watch the performance in the pavilion.
Of course, no one is doing any performance in the pavilion now, and the wind is not obvious at this time, and the lotus leaves on the lake, like jewels dotted around the neck, are quiet.
A young man in a green shirt stood on the island pavilion, staring at the clear lake outside the pavilion, the new lotus tip on the lake was out of the water, slim and elegant, and the person standing in the pavilion seemed to be staring at the lotus leaf.
"Childe!"
The middle-aged man who came in a hurry got on the boat, and halfway through the boat, the middle-aged man couldn't wait to shout to the young man in the pavilion on the island.
The young man in the pavilion turned his head, but he showed a face that was alluring to the country and the city, and when he looked closely, the young man standing in the center of the pavilion was actually a young girl.
The middle-aged man went to the island, and from a distance he clasped his fists and saluted the girl in the pavilion: "Childe, I found the person you asked me to keep an eye on!"
"Oh?" The girl in the pavilion turned her head and stared at the middle-aged man with a pair of bright eyes: "Let's hear it." ”
The voice was tactful, like a yellow warbler temporarily falling on the branches, and the bulge on his chest did not make any concealment, but the middle-aged man ignored all appearances at all, and still lowered his head and said respectfully: "Childe, the things we put in the Liu family's shop were taken away, and our people have embellished each other, and now the other party is two men and one woman, one woman is the maid of one of the men, and the other man looks like a housekeeper or coachman." ”
"Where are they now?"
"At the Fulai Inn in the South City!" the middle-aged man still lowered his head and carefully replied to the girl's question.
"Okay, I see, you go back and keep an eye on them. The girl waved her hand and continued to stare at the lotus leaves on the surface of the lake, which were blown by the wind and splashed in circles on the surface of the lake.
The middle-aged man answered, silently retreated to the boat, returned to the shore and hurried away, and after a while, the lake was calm again.
The girl dressed as a man stared at the lotus leaves on the lake for a while, and said to herself, "How can it be a man?"
......
At night, 6 Tao opened his eyes.
Dinner was eaten with Uncle Xu and his little granddaughter Xiao Yun, it was not too rich dinner, just a pot of mung bean porridge and two dishes of vegetarian dishes without meat, 6 Tao couldn't eat a bowl of porridge, and the lackluster diet made it difficult for 6 Tao to adapt.
There was no oil lamp in the house, and 6 Tao stayed at home to practice after eating, and it was not until midnight that he was sure that Xu Bozu and grandson had fallen asleep, and 6 Tao opened his eyes.
There were a few chickens and a dog in the front yard, and 6 Tao pushed open the window of the room, looked left and right, and jumped lightly onto the courtyard wall, and then disappeared into the deep darkness.
Kuroko, the big black dog in the front yard, seemed to hear something, his ears moved and he woke up, and a pair of eyes reflected the moonlight in the sky, staring in the direction of 6 Tao for a while, and then he lay down and closed his eyes.
6 Tao carefully walked forward in the dark, there are also people in this world, they hold lanterns, they can be seen from a distance, 6 Tao followed the direction in his memory, all the way to the location of the palace.
After crossing an alley, and then beyond, the street suddenly became clear, and the buildings on both sides were the same as those seen by 6 Tao during the day, thinking that this was the inner city that Xu Bo said, that is, the place where the rich and noble lived.
Waiting in front of every house, even in the middle of the night, there were still people standing at the door of the courtyard, and 6 Tao hid himself in the shadows and began to think about how to pass through this area.
Spread out the map in his hand, 6 Tao looked at the moonlight twice, this map was asked by 6 Tao from Xu Bo during dinner, Xu Bo thought that 6 Tao was coming to Wuyang to look for scenery, and he didn't doubt that 6 Tao had any other intentions to inquire about these.
The side effect is that what Xu Bo mainly introduced to 6 Tao is the scenery in Wuyang City, large and small, in more than a dozen places.
6 Tao stared at the map in a trance in the moonlight, looked at the largest area and thought, maybe he can pass through Jinyang Lake?
After thinking about it, 6 Tao made up his mind, among the spells he knew, there was an unknown spell that was very suitable for crossing through the lake, and even his clothes would not get wet.
6 Tao identified the direction of the map and followed a deep alley and got in.
