Sun Haoran listened to the words of the little guy and thought to himself: "Confucius said to respect ghosts and gods and stay away. Whether there are real ghosts or someone is haunted, this house is unlucky after all. "It's just that this is the Xia family picking a house, and he doesn't talk much. In addition, the fifth brother and Xu Liangqi had something to do yesterday, but he had nothing to do, and his heart was not very happy. I made up my mind to just watch from the sidelines today.

Xu Liangqi was also depressed at this time, thinking to himself: "I often boast of reading countless people with others, and no one can escape my own eyes, I didn't see such a powerful character by my side." That's it, and treat her like a rabbit. Looking at her majesty today, Brother Sun and Fifth Brother Xia are used to it. But it's my own mother who has a lot of means, that is, when she cleaned up her father's concubine, she brought a little bit of such momentum. ”

As if to challenge his thoughts, Xiaoyu at the end of the crowd began to say again: "Baochen, I know that you have to make a contribution, you are my first apprentice, and maybe the last." I don't explain you to understand, how dare I put you next to the hungry wolf of Vice General Xue. ”

Xu Liangqi, who was walking in front, listened to the words that came from the fluttering air, and his heart twitched.

Yang Baochen responded dejectedly.

Xiaoyu continued: "You must know what the second brother said, the arrows rained at him at that time, how was he?" He asked his subordinates to guard the grain and grass, and left him alone. Do you know what that means? ”

Yang Baochen thought to himself: "In the war, the one who is the main general must take the lead, and the horse leather shroud, how can there be a soldier who desperately receives merit by himself." ”

Xiaoyu waited for a while, but didn't hear a response, so she said impatiently: "Huh?!" ”

Only then did Yang Baochen realize that Xiaoyu was asking him, and secretly thought that Vice General Xue couldn't stand you, and said, "He must be trying to buy people's hearts." ”

Xiaoyu sighed in surprise, secretly thinking that this apprentice was too stupid, he had taught him by hand, why didn't he understand it at all.

Xu Liang said in unison, this Yang Baochen said that it was bad, he was the first to be a general, and he bought people's hearts but it worked for a while. In fact, most of the people who are chasing fame and fortune are far from a long-term solution, and listen to what Miss Xia has to say.

Xiaoyu stroked his forehead and chirped angrily: "Stupid, this shows that he doesn't care about his life and death at all." Come to think of it, he doesn't even take his own life seriously. If you follow him, will he be able to control your life or death? As long as he uses his hand, he can fill the hole with you immediately. ”

This time, Xu Liangqi and Yang Baochen were stunned.

Xiaoyu's tone changed, and she said with some sadness: "Baochen, how many times have I told you, you don't listen to it, I am tired of what I said." I'm just an apprentice of yours, and I don't expect you to be added to the ranks. It's like I arranged for you, when the second brother comes, stay in the horse farm for half a year, and then go to the camp. You don't read much, and it's a bit difficult for officials to get around with people if they do too much. Just be a school captain, and when you go to the local area in the future, you can get a petty official of the sixth grade. During the New Year's Festival, I took my daughter-in-law and children to my sister-in-law's house. Don't talk about Xue Yu, even Master and I, I don't want you to protect me desperately. ”

Yang Baochen couldn't hold back anymore, and couldn't help but feel a little guilty, secretly thinking that I had mixed in to calculate their horse farm. I became her apprentice by mistake, but I didn't think that she was so good to me, and everything was thought of for me. Since the parents are gone, how can one and a half of them say such things in the past many years. Even my sister is also dependent on herself for everything, and she has never imagined the future for herself. When he replied to Xiaoyu, he couldn't help but have a hint of nasality: "I can save it." After a pause, he said: "In the future, if the master is in trouble, I, Yang Baochen, will protect you even if I have my liver and brain." ”

Xiaoyu was so angry that her face was flushed, and she scolded: "What do I want your liver and brain to do, you can't teach it!" "Beat the horse and go to the front.

Xu Liangqi endured it for a long time before he couldn't help but look back at Yang Baochen, but his heart was in chaos, secretly thinking about how the more he listened to this, the more he looked like my mother's words. Miss Xia seems to be only twelve or three years old, how can she talk old-fashioned.

The Liu family's mansion is in the northeast, opposite Zhou Shizi's mansion. Xiaoyu urged the horse to the front, bowed his head and asked the fifth brother: "What is the name of this little brother?" ”

"It's called Fuyuan, the same age as you." The fifth brother also lowered his voice: "You are training Baochen again!" In the morning, there are so many people and you don't show him any affection. ”

Xiaoyu held the horsewhip in his hand and snorted: "If the jade is not cut, it will not be a weapon." ”

The little guy turned around and pointed to an alley and said, "Fifth brother, this Dongtangzi alley is it." ”

It is said to be an alley, and the road in the middle is very wide, and there is no problem with two or three carriages in parallel. Stone slabs were also paved on the road, Xiaoyu looked at the houses on both sides, and secretly said, "Why are the houses here so large." Although it is good, I am afraid that the cost is also indispensable. ”

I walked inside again, and saw that the houses on both sides were high-gate compounds. After a while, Fuyuan pointed to a house and said, "This is it." ”

Xiaoyu took a look and thought, this outside looks similar to Zhou Shizi. It is also a black lacquered gate, and the door plaque on it reads Liu's Mansion with gilded gold. The little guy stepped forward and patted the door, and after waiting for a while and seeing no movement, he smiled apologetically and said, "I think the old man in the porter is drinking again." No one else is happy to look at the house here, but this old man is alone. ”

Xiaoyu nodded, and the little guy stepped forward to shoot for a while, only to hear the movement inside. It took a long time before the door creaked open, sticking out a head, a black and thin face full of folds, and a small bun on the top of the head. Squinted at the little guy, and then opened a door: "Fuyuan, come in." This is what it looks at the house? ”

Xiaoyu glanced at him and then followed into the shadow wall, seeing that the main courtyard was large and clean, even Sun Haoran liked it a little in his heart. The main hall is three meters high, and it is built magnificently, and a plaque on the front reads Gohondo. Xiaoyu looked at it and smiled secretly, this businessman can't help but make some jokes if he wants to be elegant, these three words can't help but remind people of a business without capital, if they come in, they have to pick it up first.

Further back is the second door, looking to the east, there seems to be a lobby house I don't know what it is for? Fuyuan led them over and pointed to the idle sedan chair on the side and said: "The ladies have gotten on the sedan chair here, and sometimes they don't want to ride horses, and Master Liu also goes out in the sedan chair here." ”

Xiaoyu nodded, this family can't use it for the time being. Walking inside, there is a side courtyard on the east side, with three main rooms and three side rooms on the side. There is a smaller courtyard in this side courtyard, and Xiaoyu secretly thought, I can live there in the future.

Sun Haoran and Xu Liangqi were also very happy to see it, and Sun Haoran also changed his mind and thought: "This house already has a bit of the appearance of my father's yard, and with a few pieces of Taihu Lake stone, my mother must like it." ”

Xu Liangqi also secretly liked it, thinking that he originally wanted to find another house, if the Xia family bought this, their family would have few people, so we might as well borrow it. When the time comes, you can also take care of the lady's aunt.

A few people were thinking about it, when they heard Xiaoyu ask the little guy: "What kind of trick is this haunting, but someone has seen it?" "Everyone didn't care much about it at first, but now they all want to buy it in their hearts, and the haunting thing is more important, and they all look at the little guy.

The little guy scratched his head and hesitated: "This is not very accurate, some people see ghosts and fires in the yard, some people see a human head floating around, some people say that it is a headless person walking around with his head, and some say that he sees a ghost shadow and disappears from the ground." ”

Xiaoyu nodded and continued to walk towards the side courtyards inside, Xu Liangqi asked, "Why do these side courtyards have small kitchens?" ”

Xiao Wu smiled: "This is used in winter, the north is cold, and the food taken from the big kitchen will freeze into a lump when it reaches the farthest courtyard." ”

Sun Haoran's heart that had been extinguished by the haunting suddenly ignited again, and he thought to himself: "We don't have any money left, and then it was like marrying the Xia family, and relying on the strength of the Xia family, we reluctantly sold the Zhuangzi purchased by our father." Mother always said that she wanted to buy a house alone, alas, but she didn't know that just our mother and son, if it was too far away from the Xia family, there would be no one to take care of anything. Now there is a small kitchen here, and it is really good not to have a stove with the Xia family. As the old saying goes, don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. I am doing the right thing, I am doing it properly, why should I be wise about those things that have no shadow? ”

After turning around the three side courtyards, the little guy took them into a courtyard again, and the pavilions, water pavilions, green willows, and smoke made the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River. A small bridge in the northwest corner connects the water pavilion with the shore, and the small lotus leaves in the pond are sparse. Xu Liangqi turned his head to look at Sun Haoran and said, "I didn't expect that there is such a courtyard here, do you know what it's called?" ”

Sun Haoran also smiled: "This side looks like a water pavilion, I'm afraid it's a boat-shaped over there, I see that it's all made of stone, and it's the best to cool off in summer." ”

Xu Liangqi clapped his hands and said: "Exactly, this is the famous untied boat in Jiangnan." ”

Fifth Brother and Xiaoyu naturally didn't know about such elegant things, so they hurriedly asked Sun Haoran and Xu Liangqi for advice. Originally, this was called a stone boat, and the whole body was built on the water with stones, because it was made of stones, and it was not afraid that it would flow away along the water, so it was called a boat not tied to the boat.

Seeing this garden, Sun Haoran and Xu Liangqi secretly made up their minds--- that's it. Xiaoyu was very worried in her heart, secretly thinking that this house was good and big enough. In the main house, my parents will live in the future, and I will live in the side yard with my second brother and sister-in-law, and the fifth brother and Brother Haoran will live in the front yard. The aunt of the Sun family lives in the side courtyard here in the garden.

The Xu family can live in the side yard on the west side, so that everyone can also take care of it. It's just that this garden is so big, and there are so many messy flowers and trees in it, and there are many corridors, and there is something added here that is not tied to the boat, and I went up there to find so many people to clean up so many things.
