Chapter 212
When the sun was rising higher and higher, Xiao Tao was also a little anxious, he didn't know why the young master could be delayed in the study for so long. He was a little worried that the young master would miss the hour. But soon he also figured out that the old gentleman hadn't come to the study yet, and who should he ask for leave from the young master. So soon, Xiao Tao turned into a prayer from the bottom of her heart, and the old gentleman came to the study quickly.
Fortunately, he saw the old gentleman, and finally appeared in the courtyard, and as he slowly moved to the study step by step, the little peach heart was even more nervous. He kept shouting in his heart: Hurry up, hurry up, why are you walking so slowly?
Finally seeing the figure of the old gentleman disappearing at the door of the study, Xiao Tao knew that the young master was estimated to come out in a while. It's just that Xiao Tao doesn't know the young master's trick of pretending to be sick, can he fool this old gentleman?
At this time, he had already gathered near the door of the study, and kept staring at the study, for fear that if something made a disturbance and lead others over. He also had to rush up quickly to cover up for his young master.
But obviously Xiao Tao was thinking too much, and what he was worried about did not happen. Soon he found that the door of the study was open again, and this time it was his young master who came out. Xiao Tao was overjoyed, and immediately walked out of the room lightly, and walked quickly to his young master's side.
And it was so easy to see Xiao Tao, Zhao Rong immediately reached out to him and asked him for the set of clothes that Xiao Tao hid. After getting the clothes, Zhao Rong quickly draped them on his body, although it was a little smaller, but fortunately, the servant's clothes were originally made larger and looser, so Zhao Rong was barely able to tie the clothes. At this moment, the two of them seemed to have suddenly become two small guys, and when they walked around the yard, they shouldn't attract too many people's attention.
Taking care of themselves, Xiao Tao and Zhao Rong walked out of this small courtyard one after the other. Sure enough, just as they thought, until they walked out of the courtyard, no one noticed that there was anything wrong with them. No one shouted to stop them and didn't let them leave.
The two people who came out of the small courtyard sped up their pace, and soon came to the side door. There was indeed a doorman at the side door, but the old servant couldn't go to the birthday banquet to watch the excitement today, and that person was very angry. At this time, he was lying on a recliner looking at the sky, and he didn't pay much attention to the movement on the side door. He just glanced at it with his eyes, and found that it was two little guys who were about to walk out of the side door, and he didn't pay much attention to it, and he didn't get up to take another look.
Finding that there was also a servant guarding the door here, Zhao Rong was very nervous in his heart. He hurriedly turned his face to the other side to prevent the servant from seeing his face, and Xiao Tao also cleverly blocked Zhao Rong's side. But they did think too much, and the servant didn't even look at it, didn't twist his head, and let the two of them go out.
After this pass, both of them breathed a deep sigh of relief. The clothes they were wearing were a little sweaty, but now they didn't care about it, and the two of them walked quickly across the path and came directly to the small garden of the Great Elder's home. The door opened as soon as it was pushed, and Xiao Tao was the first to enter the small garden.
There were all kinds of plants, and there was a sandy area, and Xiao Tao listened attentively and found that the garden was quiet, except for the occasional birdsong. He hurriedly turned around and motioned for his young master to follow, and the two of them walked briskly on the gravel path, bypassing some green plants, and walking straight to the middle of the small garden.
In the area in the middle of this small garden, there are some large rocks stacked on top of each other. The rocks were not piled up like rockeries, but were piled up flat for two or three layers. The tallest rock is just over a meter above the ground.
This is a place for boys to practice climbing. And for the sake of safety, these rocks are not dangerous, and they are very stable. Xiao Tao made an agreement with the merchant at that time, and in this small garden, the two of them also specifically mentioned that they would meet, and they took these rocks in the middle as the specific location.
The rocks are located in the heart of the small garden, not very far from the door, and the average person would not go out of their way to get there. Moreover, although the rocks on those floors are not high, they are still the commanding heights of this small garden, and if they meet there, it is convenient to observe the surrounding environment.
Zhao Rong's master and servant didn't care about anything else, and walked quickly towards the rock. Seeing from a distance that the layers were stacked with large rocks, and there were no other figures, Zhao Rong and Xiao Tao put their hearts down. It seems that they are in a hurry, too, looking at the sun in the sky, and knowing that they are still a little bit away from the appointed time.
When Zhao Rong sat on the highest rock, Xiao Tao was vigilantly patrolling around. This small garden was not big, and he quickly walked around the garden before running back to his young master's side. Xiao Tao said a little breathlessly: "Young master, don't worry, I just walked around the garden, and there really are no people here, and there are no children." ”
It seems that as Zhao Rong analyzed, no one should come here to disturb them today. Just when Zhao Rong's master and servant were already in place, waiting for the two Gong Jian brothers to meet, we moved the timeline forward a few days. Let's go back to the day when Xiao Tao handed the invitation to the merchant, and then follow the merchant's perspective to see how things develop.
When the merchant got the blank invitations, he didn't open them, but hurried back to his room, carefully placing them at the bottom of the box, and then piling up other clothes on them. The merchant carefully disguised himself.
When he had done this, he walked out of the room with his clothes in his clothes, and walked briskly to the steward, and reported the results of his morning rounds in the courtyard. Of course, he didn't go on patrol, in fact, he used this time to wait for Xiao Tao near Zhao Rong's yard. After that, the two of them delayed a lot of time, and there was no way, so he could only use the excuse that he had been patrolling the yard.
The steward is very busy today, and he doesn't care whether what the merchant said is true or false, but at least after getting along these days, he is still very confident in the merchant. Knowing that the merchant's ability is good, his popularity is even better, and he is very good among the servants. In addition to the work assigned to the merchant, he also did it beautifully, so the steward was still very satisfied with the merchant.
Without looking into what the merchant had done in the morning, the steward believed the merchant's words, and then assigned all the other work to the merchant, and the steward also went about his own business. My AR goddess
