Chapter 295: Courtyard
295
"Spring March,
The willow waist swings in the wind.
Little orphan widow,
Cut Naro's skirt slowly.
Thinking of my dead husband,
How come you don't come to your dreams?
April day,
Yang flowers flutter and willows fly.
Little orphan widow,
I want to chase the pink butterfly.
Seeing the butterflies in pairs,
The slave family is not sad in his heart. ”
Zhong Manlang hummed a little song in his mouth, and walked forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow. He had just finished drinking, and he was in good spirits.
Because of the five-flowered horse's troublesome temperament, no matter where he smelled the mare's scent, he chased after it, although Zhong Ye could restrain it, he was also troublesome, so he simply sent it to Duanwang's Mansion to breed, in exchange for a banquet in Yuxian Building.
Anyway, Duanwang Shizi has always coveted the five-flowered horse, so Zhong Ye pushed the boat with his hand.
These days, he has been investigating the abduction of children by himself, and although he has some clues in his hands, they are not reasonable evidence.
I had to follow Feng Yuchao every day to find out if he had anything to do with this matter.
"This grandson isn't crazy, is he?" Ever since he found out that Feng Yuchao was digging up the body in the Yaksha grave, Zhong Ye felt that he was a little abnormal: "What is he running to Wufeng Street this morning and evening?" I don't go to any of the good places, but I choose these places to go. ”
Because the windless street was too narrow, Zhong Ye was not able to follow up rashly, for fear of being detected by him, so he had to stay at the street entrance.
After a while, Feng Yuchao came out of it and went south again.
Zhong Ye thought about it and followed, he naturally came here to buy poison, and he didn't need to ask too much, but he would never wait to lose someone.
"Strange, why did he enter this courtyard again?" Zhong Ye said, "What is the mystery here? I'm going to have to see it all today. ”
Two days ago, he saw Feng Feng Yuchao enter this courtyard with a black porcelain jar, and it took a long time to come out, and he didn't know what he was doing inside.
At that time, he didn't go in for fear of startling the snake, but now that Feng Yuchao is in and out of this courtyard so frequently, it is not possible not to take a look.
He stood outside the wall, carefully listening to the movement inside, and found that in addition to Feng Yuchao, there were several servants inside.
It's just that this time Feng Yuchao didn't go in for a long time, and it was only a tea hour when he came out, and after going out, he stepped on the horse and went straight back to the Renyong Mansion.
Zhong Ye followed him, although he was walking down, but he was not far away.
Seeing Feng Yuchao return to the house, he knew that it was impossible for him to come out again, so he reflexively returned to this courtyard.
When it was late at night, there was no one walking in the courtyard.
Zhong Ye pressed the ridge of the wall with both hands and easily climbed into the courtyard.
The walls here are high, but it won't be difficult for Zhong Ye to get in.
After waiting in the dark for a while, the cat walked along the wall to the backyard and looked around, but found nothing wrong.
Turn right to the main room, use the dagger you carry with you to open the door and plug it in, and gently dodge in.
After a careful look at the three main rooms, I can see that there are no permanent residents here, there is a layer of dust on the bookshelves, and the teacups and teapots have not been used for a long time.
So what exactly is Feng Yuchao doing here?
Zhong Ye was about to take a closer look when he suddenly heard movement in the courtyard, it should be someone who got up at night.
The two little guys went to Xifang Mountain one after the other to relieve themselves, and when they finished urinating and walked back, one muttered: "How long are we going to stay here?" I'm about to suffocate. ”
The other said, "I advise you to be content." Although this place is boring, it is easy to work and gives more money. ”
"That's what I said, but I always feel uncomfortable." The little guy said, "Where do you say the eldest young master got those children?" Why haven't any of them come out again? ”
"Kid? What kid do you say? Another asked.
"It's true, the two of us are later, and a few of them should know better than us," the little guy said: "Every month on the fifteenth day of the month, the eldest young master will send someone to send things in, and again, I can't help but be curious and secretly open it to take a look, those big boxes are full of children." ”
"What you say is true?" Another asked, "Don't talk nonsense." ”
"It's true, how dare I make this thing up!" "That's why I don't want to stay here." ”
"If you say so, it is indeed not advisable to stay here for long." The other was also scared and wanted to leave the land of right and wrong.
"What are you two talking about?!" I don't know when another person came outside, and he was much older than these two little guys.
"Third Master Tong, I, we didn't say anything." The two little guys hurriedly covered up: "Let's just say that summer will start in a few days." ”
"Tell you, if you want peace, take care of your eyes, ears, and mouth! Don't listen to what you shouldn't hear, don't watch what you shouldn't see, don't say what you shouldn't say! ”
"Yes, yes, we remember." The two little guys said hurriedly.
So the three of them went back, and after a long time, Zhong Ye stood up and moved his body.
It seems that the abduction of children is indeed related to Feng Yuchao, listening to the words of that little guy, those children should have been transported to this courtyard, but in the end, it is unknown.
It seems that the person surnamed Tong should be more aware of this matter, and it is best to catch him alone and ask, but if he does not come out of this courtyard, I am afraid that it will not be easy to do.
At this time, it was early in the morning, Zhong Ye did not dare to fight, and quietly returned the same way, but did not meet anyone along the way.
After returning to his home, Zhong Ye took a cold shower before returning to his room to rest.
He had been following Feng Yuchao for several days in a row, and he was a little sleepy.
In addition, it has been determined that he has something to do with this matter, and every time he sends those children to that courtyard, it is either the first day of junior high school or the fifteenth, and he can't find anything even if he squats there.
"I'll go to Wufeng Street tomorrow when I wake up," Zhong Ye thought as he walked into the room, "Let's see what kind of medicine Feng Yuchao bought." ”
Back in the bedroom, I heard only a snoring sound.
There were a few hairballs curled up on Zhong Ye's bed, and it was a female cat sleeping on it with a few kittens, and the cats would snore when they slept comfortably.
Zhong Ye looked at his bed helplessly, and these little guys were not seen at all.
Speaking of which, this female cat was sent by the Wei family last year in order to thank herself for sending a lot of thanks, and the gourd was afraid that a mouse would damage the clothes, so she specially instructed the winter melon to come, which was only the size of a fist at that time.
Now she has given birth to a litter of kittens.
"Excuse me, move in." Zhong Ye said and pushed a few cats inside.
The cats seemed dissatisfied, and their purring stopped, and they looked at him half-open and closed it again.
Zhong Ye fell asleep after lying down for a while, and one kitten lay on his chest and licked it, and the other kept biting his fingers, but it didn't grow teeth yet, and it didn't hurt to bite. Another used his hair as grass and picked it up with his paws.
The she-cat simply sat on his belly and used Zhong Ye's trouser belt as a mouse, scratching and biting constantly.
