String Moon House
Li Ximu didn't say much to him, pointed to Xiao Si and asked him, "What do you mean by sending this guard to follow me?"
"Of course, it's to protect the girl's safety." Yue Luxin cranked the white jade folding fan in his hand, and he was indifferent.
"Yue Gongzi, what else do I need to protect in this mansion?" Li Ximu was very disgusted with Yue Luxin's attitude, "Yue Gongzi, this guard still asks you to take it back." "She doesn't like to be with someone behind her in whatever she does.
"No way!" Yue Luxin's peach blossom eyes narrowed even more, "Pear girl, do you know who came to the house last night?"
Li Ximu's face suddenly turned a little white when she heard this, and she was very nervous, thinking, didn't Su Qi be discovered? In her opinion, since Shu Qi came to see her in the middle of the night, she must not want to be known by the people of Yuefu.
Yue Luxin didn't seem to notice that something was wrong with her, and took a step forward and stared at her and said, "My Yuefu has never been involved in anything, but last night, three batches of black-clothed dead soldiers came, Miss Pear, who did you say these people were coming for?"
When Li Ximu heard that it was not Su Qi, he was suddenly relieved, but when he heard his last sentence, he couldn't help but be a little scared.
"You're messing with people you shouldn't be tainted with!" After Yue Luxin finished speaking, she walked straight past her, and when she wiped her body, she only faintly heard him instruct Xiao Si: "Take her to the String Moon Residence." ”
She turned her head sideways to look at Xiao Si, still expressionless and indifferent. When Li Ximu even began to wonder if she had heard it wrong, Xiao Si spoke, and her voice was straight without the slightest fluctuation: "Girl, let's go." ”
"Where are you going?" She subconsciously asked again.
"String Moon House."
If Shuangtong Street is the most prosperous commercial street in Jizhou, then Yazhi Lane is the quietest street in Jizhou, with Shuangtong Street an opening to the north, an opening to the south, and only the shops in the neighborhood in the middle, it is natural to see at a glance whether it is lively or not.
Yazhi Lane is said to be an alley, but the length and width of this road are not much worse than Shuangtong Street.
Branches, elegant. As the name suggests, the shops that open inside naturally sell some pen and ink calligraphy and painting antiques and treasures. There is a white stone carved standing card at the mouth of the alley, which is engraved with three big characters of "Yazhi Lane" with freehand feelings.
A delicate and gorgeous carriage slowly passed the standing sign into the alley, and the man in gray who was driving was really a little four.
Li Ximu sat in the carriage and looked through the gauze window at the similar shops in Yazhi Lane, no one passed by along the way, Li Ximu was secretly strange in her heart, but she didn't think deeply, until the carriage stopped in front of a shop.
"The girl has arrived." Xiao Si's unheaving voice sounded outside the car.
Li Ximu retracted his gaze looking out of the car window, reached out and lifted the curtain of the carriage, and leaned out half of his body: "It's here so soon!" ”
Xiao Si didn't speak, helped her get out of the carriage and went straight into the shop.
Li Ximu stuck out his tongue at his back, and then looked up at the three big characters of "Xianyue Ju" above the shop, and then followed in.
After entering, Li Ximu saw that the shopkeeper of the String Moon Residence was talking to Xiao Si, and looked around with herself. The lobby of the Quarter Moon Residence is not very large, and there is a splashed ink landscape picture hanging on the wall opposite the door, and the artistic conception of the mountains and flowing water is unique. There is a mahogany long case below, with a few books on it, and a curved jujube wood pen hanging on these three or two special little wolf hairs. On the left-hand side are two quaint square chairs, with similar square tables in between. On the right-hand side, the walls are folded into squares of different sizes, and different jade and porcelain are displayed inside, which is beautiful and does not take up space, which is very unique.
The shopkeeper is a slightly blessed old man, seeing that she has been looking at the environment, he has been standing aside without disturbing, and when Li Ximu finished appreciating it, he turned around, and saw the shopkeeper looking at her peacefully and smiling, and Xiao Si had long disappeared.
Nodding towards the shopkeeper with a slight disobedience: "Hehe, the layout is very chic, I was fascinated by it for a while." ”
The shopkeeper laughed twice and said, "Girl Miaozan, this place is all arranged by the son himself." ”
Li Ximu smiled: "Where is Xiaosi?"
"The four guards went back to the Mingyue Pavilion to return to their son." The shopkeeper has all the questions.
Li Ximu was puzzled: "Isn't he trying to protect me?" How to protect when you are gone? ”
The shopkeeper laughed as if he had suddenly heard something funny: "Girl, if anything happens to you in this Quarter Moon Residence, then there is no need for me to be the shopkeeper." There was confidence in his tone.
"Isn't the String Moon House a shop that sells antique words?" Li Ximu did not deny the shopkeeper's words: "Is there any difference?"
When the shopkeeper heard this, a dark light surged in his eyes, and his tone suddenly became strict: "Girl, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, this is not as simple as what your eyes see." ”
Li Ximu was stunned.
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, she instantly changed to her original peaceful appearance, thinking that what she said just now was just her hallucination. "The girl comes with me." After speaking, the shopkeeper turned around and walked inside.
Li Ximu was stunned for only a moment and followed.
Through the small door, you will arrive at the backyard of the String Moon Residence. The shopkeeper led her to the door of a wing room on the west side, and said to her: "Girl, stay here for the time being, Xicui, I will have someone pick her up later, you go first to rest and rest, I will go to the shop to take care of it first." Then he went back to where he had come.
Li Ximu obediently entered the door, and when she heard that the shopkeeper was going to call Xicui over, she just wanted to say no, but when she turned around, the shopkeeper had already gone away.
Li Ximu walked into the wing room, walked around the room at will, her bright light brown eyes looked around the furnishings in the room, the whole was similar to the layout of Mingyue Pavilion, simple and concise, there was a row of bookshelves outside, there were bookcases, but there was one less round table for eating than Mingyue Pavilion. There is only a simple bed in the room, and there is nothing else.
Xicui came with Xiao Si when the sky was getting dark in the evening, and in the blink of an eye, four days passed, except for one more guard Xiao Si who didn't talk much, Li Ximu's daily life was still the same as in Mingyue Pavilion.
Today. The wind and the sun are beautiful, and Li Ximu is still in a good mood, so she gets up early and moves in the yard. It's just that this coziness was interrupted by a woman who suddenly broke in.
The woman was dressed strangely, I saw that she was wearing a blue gauze dress, but she was wearing the black and gray cloth shoes of Lian Jiazi on her feet, and her hair was combed into a man's bun, fixed with a wooden hairpin, and there was no powder on her face, but because she was running all the way, her cheeks revealed two blushes. The woman's steps are steady, her figure is slightly burly, and her face is also rough that ordinary daughters don't have.
In short, this woman makes people look very awkward.
Li Ximu was just secretly thinking about who this woman was, and saw her walk quickly to stand in front of her. There was hostility towards her in her eyebrows, but she still saluted her respectfully, and without waiting for Li Ximu to speak, she turned sideways to Xicui and asked, "What about the fourth senior brother?" ”
