There is a small hill from the back gate of Nangong Mansion, which is not high and very quiet. Usually, there is almost no one going up the small back mountain in the house. However, as long as the old people in the house know, there is a couple living on the mountain.

There is a wooden house on the mountain, there are a few fields outside the house, growing all kinds of vegetables, and raising some chickens and ducks. Nangong Dingkang walked to the wooden house and happened to see a woman dressed as a peasant woman picking vegetables. "Second sister-in-law."

The peasant woman smiled and nodded, gesturing to the house.

Nangong Dingkang opened the door and entered the house, and there was a gray-haired man sitting in a wheelchair under the window of the house, his right hand was broken, and only two fingers were left on his left hand. "Second brother."

The man nodded, but did not look back, meditating on the chess game in front of him. Nangong Dingkang walked up to him, took out three chess books, put them on his table, and sat down on one side. "Ah Jin is back, and she is very badly injured. Last time, I sent someone to see the place you gave me. "I'm afraid he doesn't remember, so I added a place name," Chenzhou. ”

The man looked back at him and said with a smile: "It's been three years, and you're really holding back." Then he said: "I said that Chenzhou is a good place." The people who the eldest brother took in back then, fortunately, they didn't know anything. ”

"Is there anyone else who knows about that place?" Nangong Dingkang asked. "Big brother has been gone for so many years, and most of the people there seem to have been put in later."

"I've never been there, I just know there's such a place. There may also be other people who know that if you don't want it, let them fend for themselves. The man didn't care.

"I used it. Ah Jin was seriously injured this time, and it may be a lifetime affair. Someone is responsible. Nangong Dingkang said calmly.

The man laughed, "According to your temperament, you are going to cut the grass and eradicate the roots." Those things in Chenzhou were originally planted and played by the eldest brother, so you can use them if you want. ”

"I'm not going to do business with those things, but it's better to use them and leave no traces."

The man nodded, "I just want time." However, anyway, don't have the capital, maybe you accidentally enter the account, there is nothing wrong. Since you don't want to do this business, you have to think about how to control it, this thing is very bad. ”

After a while, Nangong Dingkang said again: "I want to give Ah Jin a genealogy." ”

The man laughed a few times, "You don't want to wait until the New Year, hahaha, you're going to make trouble again." ”

Nangong Dingkang looked at him, "Ah Jin is back, Ah Pu is not a little wary of him, I am a little worried." ”

The man also looked at Nangong Dingkang and said word by word: "If one day the real brothers kill each other, you won't be able to see it." What to worry about? If you're here, you're going to not be able to get your son? The man recalled, "Ah Jin, I seem to have seen it when I was a child, this kid is really not very bold, but he is too naughty." Waste the vegetables I grow, and pluck chicken feathers. ”

"Everyone in the family knows that they can't go up the mountain, but he is disobedient."

The man nodded, "yes, it's not like you were when you were a kid." What are you worried about? ”

Nangong Dingkang seemed to be reminiscing about the man's words, and finally said, "What is missing?" I'll send someone to deliver it. ”

The man shook his head, "It's all there." ”

"Okay, then I'll come to see you next time."

"It's okay, don't use it." The man smiled and turned back to study the game.

Taiyuan, the peony flowers of the Jin Temple have long been gone. In the evening, the courtyard with ancient trees is even more gloomy.

"Qianqian." A man in his mid-thirties pushed open the door, and a gust of wind blew, leaving the courtyard empty. "Qianqian? Are you there? ”

"Guo Gongzi?" A woman spun out from behind a tree.

"It's me, it's me, Qianqian." Guo Yingli greeted him with a smile and grabbed the woman's hands, "It's so cold." I'll give you warmth. As he spoke, he put her hand in his arms.

The woman lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Didn't you say to see your father? How about making an appointment here? Guo Ying asked incomprehensibly.

Qianqian said sadly: "My father has appointed me the eldest son of Chen Yuanwai's family. I'm afraid, I'm afraid I won't see you. ”

"I promised to marry your ......"

"You're not marrying, you're naming." Qianqian interrupted him softly. "I know that you are the eldest young master of the Guo family and the head of the Guo family in the future, but I am not from an inferior family. My father will not agree to me and me as a concubine. ”

"Qianqian, you are a noble concubine. You know, I can't divorce my wife, I know I've wronged you. ”

Qianqian's eyes were full of tears, "I can't go to the door, I can't wear a red wedding dress, and even the children are concubines...... I should leave, even if I don't care, but my family, I really won't agree." ”

Guo Yingli was anxious, "We talked about it, Qianqian, I can marry you with the etiquette of a flat wife." Qianqian, I'm real, and I know you're true too. I don't want to miss out on this for the rest of my life. Don't be afraid, let me talk to your dad, shall you? ”

"Ying Li, do you really want me?" Qianqian asked tremblingly.

"Of course it's true."

"For me, you are not afraid of anything? Whatever comes your way, you want me? Won't give up on me? ”

"Of course!" Guo Yingli rushed out, then hesitated slightly, and added, "You know, except that I can't divorce my wife." I have no relationship with her, just a marriage for the sake of family interests. Qianqian, you are the person I want, I can give you anything! ”

Qianqian threw herself into Guo Yingli's arms and cried quietly.

It was getting late, Qianqian was tired of crying, and took Guo Yingli's hand, "Go to my house." However, today my father is not here, so I will meet my mother first. ”

Guo Yingli smiled and nodded.

The night was very thick, there was no moonlight, only a faint starlight. The road led by Qianqian is almost uninhabited, but Guo Yingli is not surprising because he has been here a few times.

**********

Again, Guo Yingli woke up in his carriage, smiling, I don't remember if I saw Qianqian's mother, but the night lingered for a long time. During a visit to the park four months ago, I met Qianqian. I don't even know how I could turn an unintentional encounter into what it is now.

Guo Yingli is not a person who is addicted to women, and his family has a wife and two rooms, although he often socializes, he is never addicted. Yes, addictive, Qianqian will be addictive, her smile and her performance at night are so different! Also, she knows what she's thinking, and she's like her other half. For four months, Guo Yingli never thought that he would think about a woman day and night.

Qianqian is the second daughter of the Liu family, and the Liu family is also a large family. But Qianqian, the second daughter, was put on the Zhuangzi outside the city because she had been with her parents since she was a child. Guo Yingli also came to find this Zhuangzi during the day, in fact, this Zhuangzi is not difficult to find, however, there is a difference between men and women, how can a man openly come to the door to meet an unmarried girl? Guo Yingli also went to Liu's house and met Qianqian's father, of course, not for Qianqian, but casually found an excuse to come to see.

Finally, it was decided to accept her as a concubine. I don't know who said it, wives have no interest, and those who have love are usually concubines. Guo Yingli was lying in the car, smiling. Take her in the door, and you won't have to work so hard. Although she is a noble concubine, she promised Qianqian the gift of a flat wife, so she officially came to the door to propose. Anyway, my father is not at home, and when he comes back, he can't object to anything.

Guo Yingli moved quickly, and prepared a big gift on the same day, and asked his friend Sun Gang to send it to Liu's Mansion to officially propose marriage. However, Sun Gang went quickly, returned quickly, and his face was full of doubts.

"Ying Li, Liu Jie said that he has four daughters, and only one daughter is a concubine, but he was married more than ten years ago, and he does not have a second daughter who is eighteen years old."

"Impossible! Qianqian was not treated by his family and lived in Zhuangzi since she was a child. I have checked, and the Zhuangzi outside the city is indeed under the name of the Liu family. Guo Ying was in a hurry.

"Ying Li, I don't know what to say about this." Sun Gang wanted to speak and stopped, but still sighed and said: "Is the Zhuangzi you said not far from the Jin Temple, on a very remote hill?" ”

"Yes, it's indeed the Liu family."

"Yes, yes. But....... Sun Gang didn't know where to start.

"Don't babble, just say something. Qianqian won't lie to me. Guo Yingli was a little angry.

"I also asked, the Liu family's generation is indeed not called Qianqian, Qian'er, Xiaoqian's daughter. However, ......, Liu Jie has a sister named Qianniang......"

"Qianqian is only eighteen years old, Liu Jie's sister? I'm afraid I'm going to be fifty or sixty years old. Guo Yingli said angrily.

"Liu Qianniang, grandson, line two, died at the age of eighteen. The Liu family thinks that there are some ......, how to say it, that is, people with a little guilt cannot be buried in the family cemetery, so they built a garden on Xiaoping Mountain to bury such people. ”

"Y-What are you talking about?" Guo Yingli looked shocked. "Impossible, impossible......!"

"I also roughly inquired about it, Liu Qianniang was found guilty by her family because she wanted to elope with someone. That was thirty years ago. The garden on Xiaoping Mountain was last used six years ago, and no one has been buried since. Now, according to Liu Jie, there is no one to even take care of the garden, and I am afraid that it will be deserted. ”

"Impossible, I've been, and if it's deserted, I won't be able to see it?"

"I don't know, but I should leave, I'm afraid, I'm afraid it's weird, don't you want to find someone who has the way to take a look?" Sun Gang asked worriedly.

"I don't believe it!" Guo Yingli didn't care about Sun Gang at all, and went straight to Liu's mansion.
