"Open the meal! Dinner! As soon as Hu Guiyang crossed the threshold, he shouted loudly, he was indeed hungry, and he could eat a big bowl of rice with pickles.

A captain of the West Factory and several executioners were ordered to guard the door in Zhao's house, it was cold in winter, they all hid in the gatehouse, heard the voice, someone probed out, and said with a smile: "Today's food is good." ”

"Just be willing to spend money." Hu Guiyang replied casually, thinking that Jiang and Zheng had stolen the money to buy wine and meat outside, but he didn't care, as long as he had food.

The kitchen is located in the front yard, the heat is bubbling out, but it is not Jiang Erpi and Zheng Sanhun who are cooking, the two happily greeted them, took the reins, and praised: "Mrs. Hua's cooking skills are really good, comparable to the master chef in the restaurant." ”

Hu Guiyang frowned and said: "You two really take this place as your own home, and you even invited a cook, let's say, how much does it cost me?" ”

The two were stunned for a moment, and Jiang Erpi said: "Spend money? You invited people, so why do we spend money? ”

"When did I hire a cook?" Hu Guiyang was also stunned.

"Brother Gui Yang, you are too forgetful, didn't you ask Second Uncle Sun to find someone for you yesterday? People are here this morning, Mrs. Hua cooks, Sister-in-law Gu cleans up the room, and Brother Hua ......"

"Stop." Hu Guiyang was taken aback, he didn't expect the servant to come so quickly, "What about Second Uncle Sun?" ”

"He didn't come, but Mrs. Hua brought someone here, saying that she knew you and spanked your ass." Jiang Erpi and Zheng Sanhun laughed and thought it was very interesting.

Hu Guiyang didn't think it was funny at all, "I don't even know who the flower lady is, spank me...... Hmph, she's mistaken. How many people came? ”

"Ten, five men and five women, Mrs. Hua said that there will be a few more the day after tomorrow."

Hu Guiyang was even more puzzled, the lady recommended by Second Uncle Sun obviously regarded Zhao's house as her home, and she started to take care of things before she even saw the master.

"They don't know this is a murderous house, do they?" Hu Guiyang believes that a few words can send these people away, for the sake of Second Uncle Sun's face, just give more silver.

"I know, Mrs. Hua deliberately went to the place where the dead were looking, and asked us, why did most of the captains of the Jedi Zi die outside, but this place is called a murderous house? We can't answer. ”

Hu Guiyang couldn't answer, this was exactly his question, more than half of his brothers died in the imperial city, and as a result, everyone only remembered Zhao Zhai, and the richness of associations made him unable to justify, so he simply admitted it and took the name of the murderous mansion to scary.

This flower lady is a little interesting.

Hu Guiyang asked the two to lead the horse to the stable and walked to the kitchen alone.

Out of the steaming heat came a woman, in her thirties, tall and thin, with a long face and raised eyebrows, a gloomy expression, and an unhappy look, as if everything in life was not going well.

Seeing Hu Guiyang, the woman showed a smile, "Thirty-six, you have grown up, and you are taller than me." ”

Hu Guiyang was stunned, and many miscellaneous memories came to his heart, as if it was a mess, slightly rudimentary, but he couldn't immediately sort it out, "You are ......"

"I know that you boys have always been favored, and you will be ungrateful when you grow up, and sure enough, you first made the Zhao family a mess, and thirty-eight of the forty bastards died, and now I don't even know ......"

"Little Sister Peach!" Hu Guiyang blurted out, and the messy memories finally converged into a clear line.

At that time, Zhao Ying brought back a lot of children from Broken Tengxia, both male and female, forty boys received more love, and he was trained to become a captain of the school, and the girls were just raised by them, and they married when they were old, with a rich dowry, but they rarely interacted.

When Zhao Ying's wife was alive, these married righteous daughters occasionally came back, and then broke off the relationship, and no one came to the door again.

When these boys and girls were young, they lived in different courtyards and rarely interacted with each other, so Hu Guiyang was not impressed.

Mrs. Hua is a special case, she was older at the time, her personality was more violent than that of boys, and she loved to take care of things, and she would do it if she didn't agree with her, Hu Guiyang was really spanked by her when she was a child, and I don't remember the reason for it.

"Sister Peach, my sons are in their teens." The temper of the lady who married a woman has not changed, "There are so many changes here." ”

"Yes, my father-in-law later rebuilt the house, and you haven't been back for a long time, right?"

Mrs. Hua sneered, "Since I got married, I haven't come back, you may not have been there at the time, before getting on the sedan chair, I once said that as long as my father-in-law is alive, I will never enter the door of the Zhao family." ”

"I'm not here, how can my father-in-law offend Sister Peach? Is it a small dowry? ”

"Hmph, you just came back, eat and rest first, and we'll talk later. By the way, I rearranged the room for you, such a big house, regardless of gender, living in the same courtyard, what kind of system? I also put away the things and silver at home, how can I put them indiscriminately? Haven't you heard the phrase 'it is difficult to prevent thieves from being prevented'? You're not too young, why haven't you gotten married yet? ”

Hu Guiyang hurriedly said: "I'm going to wash my face, where are I going to eat?" ”

"Of course it's in the hall, but you came back late today, so make an exception for you to have a meal in the bedroom, not in the future."

Mrs. Hua is completely in the posture of a housekeeper's wife, Hu Guiyang has already remembered the scene of being beaten on the buttocks, and she didn't dare to raise any objections.

The flower lady has been arranged, Luo lived in the East Cross Courtyard, served by two maids, Zhao Aqi, Xiao Kill Xiong, Lin Layer Ran lived in the west wing of the backyard, sharing a male servant, Hu Guiyang originally lived in the warm pavilion of the main house, and was moved to the ear room, close to the East Cross Courtyard, the room was smaller, but it was cleaned up and tidy, and a small servant was shared, and the guest Guo Yu lived in the guest room of the middle courtyard.

There are still two maids left, who are helpers for the flower lady, and three male maids, who also have something to do, each performing their own duties.

The West Factory sent a lot of daily necessities, which have been piled up on the car, who uses it and who takes it, the flower lady redistributes, and the rest is stored.

It was only one afternoon after the arrival, and the flower lady had already cleaned up the Zhao Mansion in an orderly manner, and no one could find fault with it.

Hu Guiyang's little servant is the son of Mrs. Hua, a half-grown son of thirteen or fourteen, whose appearance is somewhat similar to his mother, but his expression is completely different, he is clever and eccentric, and he is not afraid of life, as soon as he saw Hu Guiyang, he said: "Uncle Thirty-six, my nephew asks you for peace." ”

Hu Guiyang scratched his head, and was suddenly called Uncle Cheng, he was not very comfortable, "What's your name?" ”

"Everyone calls me little brother, thirty-six uncle......"

The flower lady came in with a basin of water and shouted, "Stinky boy, who is your uncle?" It's called Captain Hu. ”

Brother Hua was obviously very afraid of his mother, so he immediately changed his words: "Captain Hu." ”

"Of course you can call it uncle." Hu Guiyang didn't care.

Mrs. Hua had another idea, "How can I do that?" He came here to be a subordinate, not a master, he must be called Captain Hu, and I will call you Captain Hu in the future, and I can't call him Thirty-six anymore. ”

The flower lady put the basin on the shelf, "Wash your face." ”

Hu Guiyang immediately did so, remembered one thing, and said, "I'll go to the guest room for dinner later, and I have something to talk about with him." ”

"Okay." Mrs. Hua looked at her son, "Serve Captain Hu well, if you don't do a good job, I will send you back to the countryside to herd cattle." ”

"I'm not going back, the city is much more lively than the countryside." Brother Hua avoided his mother, picked up a handkerchief, and was about to hand it over, but his eyes looked at his mother.

The flower lady goes out.

Hu Guiyang wiped his face and asked, "Where is your father?" ”

"Dead, I died shortly after I was born." Brother Hua has no sense of sadness.

"Then your mother and son are having a hard time, right?"

"It's not difficult at all, my family originally lived in the city, and then moved to the countryside, no one dared to mess with my mother in the village, my family's house is the best in the village, and the fields are the most."

"And she still told you to herd the cattle?"

"Hey, that's because I don't want to study, my mother said that I don't raise lazy people, since I don't study, I'll go to herd cattle, and then find a living when I grow up."

"What do you want to do in the future?"

"I haven't thought about it yet, my family is a military household, and when I am fifteen years old, I can go to the army first, but my mother wants me to farm more, does Jinyiwei make a lot of money?" Brother Hua's eyes were shining, obviously envious of Zhao Zhai.

"Haha, this is not my home, in fact, I am poor, there are many poor people like me in Jinyiwei, and the rich are only a few."

"Oh." Brother Hua looked a little disappointed, and immediately smiled again: "At least the name is loud, and the mention of the three words of Jinyiwei is terrifying." ”

"Then you go for it. Have your mother and son always been in contact with Second Uncle Sun? ”

"You said Second Grandpa Sun? Of course, from childhood to adulthood, almost every month when I went into the city to buy something, I had to go to Sun's house for one night. ”

The Sun family used to be in the alley of Guanyin Temple, not far from the Zhao family, but the flower lady never returned to this "mother's house".

Hu Guiyang didn't ask any more, and went to the guest room to see Guo Yu.

After the arrangement of Mrs. Hua, Guo Yu's residence was more comfortable, but he seemed a little restrained, "Captain Hu is too polite, and I won't live long, my father's body is still parked in the store, I can't rest assured." ”

"We'll go early tomorrow morning." Hu Guiyang also wanted to check the corpse, "Does your father have any enemies?" ”

"There must be, but who doesn't have the ability to kill an Inhuman."

Hu Guiyang didn't want to serve the little brother, and chatted with Guo Yu while eating.

"How did your father find the Inhuman?"

"Yiren is indeed an officer and soldier, I don't know how to enter the mountains and wander around, hungry and full, my father saw that he was pitiful, so he took him in, and later found out that he had miraculous skills."

"So many mountain people suck Dan, there are no other strangers?"

"Gu Zhongxian once twisted the mountain people into a one, and after the defeat to the officers and soldiers, he disappeared, and the mountain people were torn apart, some surrendered, and some returned to the mountains, and they rarely interacted with each other, and we didn't know that there were strangers who appeared. My father often visited various villages and villages, but he never found the shadow of a stranger. But the aliens didn't all appear all at once, such as Captain Hu, who was only revealed after nearly half a year. ”

"Hey, I'm different...... Who do you think will be the murderer? ”

Guo Yu was silent for a while, "Since Captain Hu asked, I won't hide it, but this is just speculation, please don't pay too much attention to Captain Hu." ”

"Anyway, there are no clues at all now, and the guess is good, let's hear it."

"I guess, the murderer is going to kill a soldier alien, my father just happened to be involved, as for the reason, it is definitely not a vendetta, nor is it a killing by officers and soldiers, but someone wants to try his skills."

"It's an interesting guess, how did you come up with it?"

"Because this kind of thing happened in the mountains, some famous masters were challenged and died at the hands of the nameless, and everyone said that it must have been done by a stranger."

Hu Guiyang suddenly remembered what Guo Juren once said, "Do you suspect that this stranger is ......"

"It's not He Sanchen, it's Gao Qingcao, it's more likely that the two of them join forces."
