Chapter 35: Arrival
Qingzhi now realized what it means to get off the ship when you get on a thief ship.
Since I couldn't get down, I had no choice but to follow......
In case Lu Shikang's wound from the arrow really missed, she would become a sinner in the Lu Mansion through the ages.
She was going to go, but when she got to the place, she could go out during the day in the name of going out to the doctor or collecting medicine, and then go back to his ancestral house in the evening to change the medicine for him.
In this way, there is no need for too much contact, and at most, I see him every day when I change the dressing.
Besides, I can indeed take this opportunity to go out of Jiangbei City, experience the different customs and customs of other places, and treat those people in the city every day in Jiangbei City.
If you have a certain idea, your heart will be much easier.
The sedan chair traveled for another half a day, and when the sun set, it arrived at a mountain.
After passing through a village with smoke curling in the low-lying place of the mountains, and walked forward about 20 zhang away, the sedan chair deviated from the original avenue, turned eastward, only gradually the terrain was low and high, and then went forward dozens of zhang away, you can see a hedge wood greenway, after the sedan chair enters the hedge wood greenway, you can see that there is an antique house erected at the end of the greenway.
At the top of the door of the house is written: Wangshan Residence.
This house was bought on a whim when Lu Shikang's grandfather, Liang Zhen, a wealthy businessman, came here to enjoy the mountains and rivers 30 years ago.
The mountain in the middle of Wangshan refers to the fairy mountain located in the southwest of this residence one mile away from this residence, although there is a mile of road on the way, but when standing in the courtyard and watching, the fairy mountain is in front of you.
Fairy Mountain is named because there are stones in the mountain that resemble fairies, and because there is a lake called Jasper Lake at the bottom of the mountain, the water is clear and turquoise all year round, so tourists from all over the world often come here to visit the mountains and waters.
It's August right now, and it's the time when Fairy Mountain is crowded with tourists.
After Liang Zhen died, this residence was passed on to his second son, Lu Hezhou, the prefect of Lu.
Although it was passed on to the second son Lu Hezhou, if his eldest son Lu Heyuan and his family came to play here, they could naturally stay for a few days.
Right now, the door of the Wangshan Residence is facing west, and it is tightly closed at this time. The wall next to the gate is made of green bricks and covered with green tiles, and the high black lacquered gate is a round knocker made of copper.
The mountain residence of a commercial tycoon, from the appearance, but everywhere reveals the meaning of tranquility and elegance, thinking that the former owner is a person who is in a shopping mall, but his heart is indifferent.
After Wu Shan got off the horse, he stepped forward and knocked on the door, and after a while, a middle-aged village woman in a blue-gray shirt walked out of the door, "Lu Gongzi, are you here?" ”
This middle-aged village woman was a woman from the village in the northern valley they had just passed, and she often helped cook and tidy up the house when someone from the Lu family came to live. Every time she gets a few taels of silver, for her, every time Lu Fu comes to the Lu Mansion in just a few days, it can be used as her family's income for several years.
Yesterday, the Lu Mansion sent someone to come here in advance on a fast horse, informing her that someone from the Lu family would come to live here today, and asked her to start tidying up the house inside and out, cleaning and cleaning, and waiting for someone from the Lu family here.
So this morning, she called her second son, second daughter-in-law, and third son and third daughter-in-law to help clean the entire courtyard and house.
"Auntie, has the house been cleaned up?" Wu Shan asked.
"I'm packed, I'm waiting for you to come." The middle-aged village woman, who was called the aunt by Wu Shan, put her right hand on her left hand and said, looking at the young man who asked him with a smile, feeling that he was fair-skinned and very delicate.
After Qingzhi got out of the sedan chair, she opened her eyes and found that the young man who had just come out was more delicate and fairer than the young man who asked her just now.
A pair of eyes like the clear water of the lake.
After the young man got off the sedan chair, another son came down from the sedan chair, dressed in white, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and her aura was extraordinary, she immediately recognized that this was the little son of the Lu family who had been here once six years ago, and looked at him with a smile at the moment, and said, "The third son has grown so tall?" It's getting more and more handsome. ”
She still remembered his appearance six years ago, only thirteen or fourteen years old, with a unique cold temperament, red lips and white teeth, and a beautiful young man.
The third son looked cold, but she didn't expect that her nature was actually very stubborn, she remembered that the Lu prefect brought the Lu family to live here for more than ten days, and the third son of the Lu family was scolded no less than five times.
Now that he looks at it, it seems that there are a lot of rules.
However, she thought that it was also possible that she had lost her eyes, after all, when she first met him, she also thought that he was the kind of obedient man with good rules.
Who would have thought that a seemingly obedient young man with a cold and quiet temperament would provoke Master Lu several times in just a few days!
When his eyes smiled into a crescent moon and looked at him, he only heard this Lu Gongzi reply to her: "Aunt Qian has won the award." ”
"Come in, you guys are so far away, you must be tired, there is water I just boiled and tea in the room."
After Qingzhi enters, but there is a shadow wall in the distance from the gate, go around the shadow wall and go to the courtyard, there is a pond rockery in the courtyard, there is a pavilion in the pool, and there are stone tables and stone chairs in the pavilion.
There are various trees planted around the pond, and the layout of the trees seems to have been carefully planned.
The houses in the courtyard are built around the pond, which is irregular and staggered. There are five main houses on the north side of the pond, four side rooms on the east side of the pool, and a row of green pines on the south side of the pond, and a fence on the south side of the green pines.
There was a small gate on the south side of the east wall, which appeared to lead to another courtyard.
Although it has been carefully cleaned, the bluestone slabs leading to the courtyard can still see the roots of some unfinished weeds in the cracks, indicating that it has been uninhabited all year round.
When several people came to the courtyard, Wang Lu went to the small gate of the east wall, and went to the east courtyard to put horses and sedan chairs.
On the east side, there were five or six rooms scattered in the courtyard, which were stables, utility rooms, and other empty rooms.
The courtyard on the west side is for people.
As the master, Lu Shikang lived in the middle room due north, and Qingzhi's room was on the east side of his room, with an empty room in the middle.
Wu Shan lived in the west room of Lu Shikang's room in the main house in the north, and Qi Fang and Wang Lu lived in the wing room on the east side.
Qingzhi entered his room and looked around the room, there was a sandalwood carved shelf bed with moon-white curtains on the north side of the room, a tall wardrobe on the west side of the room, a set of tables and seats on the east side, and a carved window lattice on the south side, and a rosewood square table about five feet long and two feet wide in front of the window.
In the center of the room there is a sandalwood round table, on the east side of the round table is a sandalwood square stool, on which is placed a purple clay pot and a celadon cup.
She spread out the package, took out her clothes, and placed them in the cupboard on the west side of the room, and placed the medicine box on the table by the window on the south side of the room, and then took off her shoes and lay down on the bed, intending to take a nap.
.
Lu Shikang room in the lobby.
At this moment, a family of Ding-like people stood in the room and said to Lu Shikang, who was drinking tea on the couch in the hall behind the screen:
"Third son, this is the purpose of the lord who asked me to come, he said that he can't let you come again, he said, if I had known that the purpose of your trip was not to recuperate from your injuries but to find someone who shot you that day, he would not have let you come at all. So the third son, you can't check it any further, it's really possible that something big will happen! ”
The Lu Mansion had arrived about half an hour before they arrived.
I don't know who leaked the news and told Lu Shikang the main purpose of Lu Shikang's trip, which caused Lu Shikang's mansion to be very angry in the hall last night, and immediately sent this Ding to ride a horse to tell Lu Shikang that he was not allowed to investigate further.
"Go back and tell the lord that I have taken his teachings to heart and will not pursue them any further." Lu Shikang took a sip of tea and said.
Seeing that Lu Shikang was explained so quickly, the family opened his mouth, and then said, "Yes, I will go back and inform the master of the third son, so that he will not worry anymore." ”
After the family left.
Wu Shan asked Lu Shikang tentatively: "Third son, don't you really plan to continue the investigation?" ”
Lu Shikang smiled slightly and said, "If you don't say that, how can he leave?" ”
"It turns out that the third son, you just sent him away?" Wu Shan looked at Lu Shikang in surprise, and changed his worried tone in an instant, "However, I think it is not unreasonable for the master to be worried, in case it ......"
"Wu Shan, do you know what is the most interesting thing in the world?"
"What is it, Third Prince? Tell me about it. ”
"Discover the truth of something ......"
When Wu Shan heard this, he said in his heart, "Didn't the third prince say this before?" He remembered that the last time he said this was when Dr. Kong was asleep in the west room and he secretly observed him from the window.
But it seems that what he is going to discover this time should not be the one from last time.
He watched his third son fiddle with the green jade teacup in his hand with interest, drinking it slowly, and he didn't know why, he was deeply worried about him.
He felt that his third son was an adventurous person.
The third son of his family is that kind of person, who doesn't know how to retreat when he sees the risk, but he wants to jump in, just because the danger makes him feel excited.
And what kind of dangerous situation this risk he wants to take will put him, Wu Shan can't guess.
"Third prince, if you really want to investigate something, even if you really know something, Wu Shan advises you not to take any action, let's go back to Jiangbei City."
After all, it's not safe to venture here.
