The young lady listened to Cao Liang's sarcastic words, her face was a little pale, and she said sneeringly: "Fang Cai is indeed a slave of the concubine is too much, and I ask you to have a lot of me, and bear with me." The concubine has an urgent matter to go up the mountain, and I hope that the son can make it convenient. ”

When Cao Liang saw her say this, his brows were furrowed, his expression was sad, and the corners of his eyes seemed to be flickering, as if he was preoccupied.

Everyone has compassion, not to mention that people have repeatedly apologized, and Cao Liang is not the kind of person who will not let people be reasonable, so Cao Liang instructed Ah Fu Agui to lead the horse away from the mountain path and make way for the carriage.

"Thank you, Childe." The young lady thanked her in a low voice, turned and got into the carriage, and looked halfway up the hill.

Cao Liang watched the carriage disappear at the end of the mountain road, but a big question mark was drawn in his heart, who is this young lady? What is the meaning of such a hurry, going back and forth to the empty and uninhabited Beibi Mountain?

Cao Liang shook his head lightly and laughed secretly, but it was a meeting in Pingshui, and he had nothing to do with himself, so why do you do this nonsense.

"Little Marquis, it's not too early, you should also go home, or you shouldn't let Madame worry." Ah Fu persuaded him.

Cao Liang looked up at the sun, there is no watch or anything in this era, even if there is a sunset or a leak, it is impossible to carry it on his body often, usually look at the time by the sun, according to the position of the sun in the sky, roughly judge the time.

Now that the sun shadow is in the center, it is about noon, so is it too early? Cao Liang has a rare trip out of the city, and he hasn't had a good time playing yet, so how can he be willing to go back at this time?

"It's still early, what's the hurry?" Cao Liang was dissatisfied, since he left the Xiaoqi camp, Ah Fu and Agui urged him to return home all the way, which made Cao Liang very upset.

Ah Fu and Ah Gui were also ordered by the Hou Ye to protect the little Hou Ye closely, this northern mountain wilderness, maybe there is a hidden danger there, only by returning to Luoyang City, returning to the Gaoling Marquis Mansion, that is the safest.

Cao Liang didn't want to go back, but when it was close to noon, he was also a little hungry, but in addition to the many tombs in this northern mountain, it was rarely visited, let alone a restaurant, and even every household was difficult to find.

Ah Fu said: "Little Marquis, it's almost noon, Madame must have prepared lunch, just waiting for you to go back to eat, if you don't go back, I'm afraid Madame will be in a hurry." ”

Cao Liang glared at him and said, "Eat, you know how to eat, are you a starving ghost reincarnated?" I'm not hungry yet, sir, I'll talk about it later. ”

Although Cao Liang said that he was not hungry, he was purring in his stomach, causing Ah Fu and Ah Gui to secretly snicker, but they didn't dare to laugh out loud, and they held it back vigorously.

In order to hide his embarrassment, Cao Liang shouted: "Master, I'm a little thirsty, go, find some water!" ”

Ah Fu and Ah Gui glanced at each other and looked at each other, where are they looking for water in this barren mountain and wild mountain? Even if there is a stream and a spring in front of them, they don't have the tools to get water.

Still with sharp eyes, Ah Gui pointed to the front and said: "Little Hou Ye, there seems to be a cooking smoke in front of you, it should be someone else's house, Xiao Hou Ye, you might as well go there, maybe there is not only water to drink, but also food to eat." ”

Cao Liang looked in the direction he pointed, and sure enough, there was a smoke curling up.

There is still a big difference between cooking smoke and other smoke, if it is a fire burning a wasteland or a spontaneous combustion, it must be thick smoke billowing out, covering the sky and the sun, while cooking smoke is a thin one, straight or curved, swaying with the wind, curling and rising.

Since there is cooking smoke, there must be someone else, so Cao Liang rode along the mountain road, and before he went far, he saw a manor halfway up the mountain.

The manor is not very large, probably only a dozen rooms, and most of them are thatched houses, which are very simple.

However, the peach, willow, green and apricot blossoms in the manor have a sense of paradise.

Cao Liang and Ah Fu Agui dismounted together, Cao Liang stepped forward and knocked lightly on the chai door and shouted: "Is anyone there?" ”

This firewood door is really made of firewood, and a few dry branches are tied together, which can barely be regarded as a door.

It seems that this family is also very poor, living on this deserted northern mountain, and is not afraid of wolves, insects, tigers and leopards to patronize?

Cao Liang called for a long time, and then a person who looked like a boy came over, looked Cao Liang up and down with a pair of vigilant eyes through the firewood, and asked, "Who are you?" What are you doing here? ”

Cao Liang said: "I am a native of Luoyang City, and I came to Beibi Mountain to travel today, and I am a little thirsty, and I want to ask for a bowl of water to drink, and I also ask this little brother to make it convenient." ”

The boy didn't open the door for Cao Liang, but squinted at him and said, "Thirsty and want to drink water?" There are many mountain springs and streams under the mountain, and there is still a lack of water to drink, which is obviously an ulterior motive. My husband has instructed me, forgive me for not seeing guests, son, please go back! ”

Cao Liang was suddenly depressed, why was he so unlucky today, he was scolded by a maid just now, and now he has a closed door at a doorman's place, so he is also the identity of the little marquis, in terms of official position, he is also a dignified seven-grade official, and he has been despised repeatedly, what is going on?

"Who is your husband?"

The doorman glanced at it with suspicion and said, "You don't even know about my husband, so you dare to come to the door to disturb you?" ”

Cao Liang couldn't cry or laugh, this doorman is too self-righteous, is it true that your master is really famous?

"I really don't know the name of the master of your mansion, but I pass by here occasionally, and I want to ask for a bowl of water to quench my thirst."

The doorman hesitated for a moment and said, "Drinking a bowl of water is nothing, but you really didn't come to find Mr.?" The gentleman has instructed that no one who comes from Beijing will meet each other. ”

Cao Liang was really defeated by his innocence, and said speechlessly: "This little brother, didn't I just say it, I don't know the name of your master at all, so why talk about visiting." Now, bring three bowls of water, and we'll drink and go. ”

The doorman was skeptical, but he still opened the firewood door and said, "Okay, you three just stand here, and I'll bring you water." After saying that, he went down first.

Ah Fu had already held back the fire in his belly, and said: "Little Hou Ye, this doorman is too rude, why do you need to be so respectful, if it were me, I would have slapped him two big slaps earlier, and by the way, I also cleaned up his arrogant master, and saw if they dared to treat you slowly." ”

Cao Liang chuckled and said: "This is also other people's territory, no matter how you say it, you can't be treated slowly and beat others, right?" But I'm curious, who is the owner here? ”
