Mr. Zhao came out of Yue Yunze's room and shouted, "Ah Hu! ”

Ah Hu immediately turned in from outside the courtyard. Mr. Zhao instructed, "You go in and take care of the son." With that, he glanced at the closed door on the other side and walked straight to the opposite side.

As soon as Du Xiaomeng changed his clothes, he heard three calm knocks on the door. She walked out quickly to open the door, and as soon as the door opened, she was not surprised to see the middle-aged man in gray standing outside the door.

Mr. Zhao smiled and introduced himself first: "Miss Yang, I am the housekeeper here, my surname is Zhao, you can call me Mr. Zhao like everyone else." ”

Seeing his appearance face to face at close range, Du Xiaomeng found that his face was not only beardless, but also not even a little fibrous root. Coupled with the fact that his voice was slightly sharp, the word "eunuch" suddenly popped up in his head.

"It turned out to be Mr. Zhao."

Du Xiaomeng hurriedly took a step back to give up his position, Mr. Zhao raised his feet into the room and walked to the table to sit down, and raised his hand to signal to her: "Miss Yang, please take a seat." ”

Not knowing what medicine was sold in his gourd, Du Xiaomeng maintained a somewhat cramped smile and sat obediently on the other side of the table. After she sat down, Mr. Zhao said, "Miss Yang, please stretch out your hand." ”

Stunned for a moment, Du Xiaomeng obediently stretched out her hand, Mr. Zhao's three fingers on her wrist to take her pulse, she looked at Mr. Zhao for some reason, Mr. Zhao said slowly: "I heard that Miss Yang fell into the water before, I was afraid that the girl would be infected with typhoid fever and came to check your pulse." ”

Du Xiaomeng looked flattered and said: "Xiao'er has caused a lot of trouble to everyone by staying in your mansion, and now I have to bother Mr. Zhao to come over on purpose, Xiao'er is really sorry."

Mr. Zhao, who smiled kindly, said, "Miss Yang is polite. He paused and looked into Du Xiaomeng's eyes, "I heard that the girl came from the sky, but is it true?" ”

His finger was still on his wrist, Du Xiaomeng was sure that this Mr. Zhao would not just be kind enough to see if he was infected with typhoid fever, he could be a housekeeper in the spy den, and he said that he was a cunning old fox who might not look down on others. I heard that the master can check whether the person who is taking the pulse can do martial arts by taking the pulse, and can also detect whether the other party's heartbeat is abnormal.

Du Xiaomeng let him continue to take his pulse, looked at him calmly, smiled and said, "Mr. Zhao, you misunderstood, I didn't come from the sky, I fell from above." ”

Mr. Zhao asked, "What's the difference?" ”

Du Xiaomeng's eyes widened, and she said seriously: "Yes, this difference is big." I just came to you from our space when I fell from the top down to the pool above the house. Does Mr. Zhao know that there are many, many different spaces in this world at the same time? Different spaces cannot be interconnected at will, but if there is a way to find the point of interconnection between different spaces, then you can freely move between different spaces. ”

Noticing a slightly puzzled look on Mr. Zhao's face, Du Xiaomeng continued, "Mr. Zhao doesn't quite understand what I'm talking about, right?" The space I am talking about is somewhat similar to what you are talking about in the heavenly realm, the underworld, and so on, but it is not exactly the same. In the same way, these different spaces cannot be communicated at will, and people living in different spaces cannot come and go at will; The difference is that the number of those different spaces is beyond your imagination, and the people who live in different spaces will not be like the gods or ghosts you are talking about, who can be immortal and omnipotent. In the space where I live, for example, although we have the ability to fly into the deep sea, we are also like you, we will be born, old, sick and die, injured, cold and hungry. ”

"Oh?" Mr. Zhao was a little surprised, "So, Miss Liu, you can still fly and dive into the deep sea?" ”

"It's okay in the space I live in, but not here." Du Xiaomeng pointed to the wreckage of the mobile phone still on the table with a serious face, "Mr. Zhao, can you see such a thing?" Master and his old man are one of the few people who can shuttle between different spaces at will, and the magic weapon he gave, even if it is in different spaces, thousands of miles apart, but as long as I press it, I can see Master's appearance and talk to him. In addition, Master can also use this magic weapon to cast spells to send me to different spaces, or pick me up at any time when I am in different spaces; Also, I only need to carry it with me to keep the power that the original space has. ”

Du Xiaomeng paused for a moment, looked at the wreckage of the mobile phone and sighed very sadly, and said: "The magic weapon is rotten like this, my original ability can't be used here at all, and I can't contact the master to take me back, so I can only wait for the master and his old man to take the initiative to look for me after they find out that they can't find me."

Du Xiaomeng's pulse was steady when she spoke, without the slightest change. Mr. Zhao's fingers were still on her wrist, and he asked, "Then why is Miss Liu here?" ”

"I don't know why Master, he kicked me into the pool in the house." Du Xiaomeng frowned and thought for a while, as if she remembered something, and slapped her head hard, "Really! I may have fallen into the pool with water in my head, and I forgot about such an important thing! Before kicking me, Master told me that I should go to this space to find a person with status, and that I should do my best to do everything I could for that person in the thirty-seventh year of the Treasure Calendar. ”

Du Xiaomeng looked directly at Mr. Zhao and asked anxiously: "Mr. Zhao, do you mean those who are born in princes and nobles, or those who hold great power?" ”

Mr. Zhao nodded slightly and said, "So to speak." ”

Du Xiaomeng lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, raised a pair of sparkling eyes and said with some excitement: "I know, Master, his old man kicked me here, there must be such a person with status near here!" She grabbed Mr. Zhao's pulse-checking hand, shook it vigorously and blinked a pair of starry eyes full of anticipation, "Mr. Zhao, is the son-in-law a big man with status?" I think your home is quite big, just like the brothers said, what is that big? Oh, by the way, it's a big family! Isn't a big family a place where people with status live? ”

Mr. Zhao withdrew his hand without a trace, and said indifferently, "Miss Liu guessed wrong." My son-in-law is just an ordinary tea merchant, Qiyang here is heavy on agriculture and suppresses business, and the status of a businessman is not even comparable to a cropper, how can he be a person with status? It's just that my son-in-law has a good business skills, saved a lot of family business, and raised a few more slaves. ”

"Huh? Isn't your son a big man? Du Xiaomeng obviously showed a disappointed expression, she frowned and scratched her head and muttered to herself, "It doesn't make sense, Master, he can't be so boring and throw me into an irrelevant place, right?" Why is that? ”

Mr. Zhao seemed to interrupt Du Xiaomeng's self-talk with good intentions: "If you are in a hurry, you can't reach it. Miss Liu should stay here with peace of mind first, and then slowly read what your master said, maybe there will be other discoveries. ”

"That's what Mr. Zhao said." Du Xiaomeng cooperated very well and showed the appearance of waking up the person in the dream with a word, "Master, there will be nothing wrong with his old man, he must have other intentions in sending me here." ”

Mr. Zhao stood up and said, "If Miss Liu finds it boring to stay in the room, she can go around other places." ”

"Can I walk around the house?" Du Xiaomeng asked uncertainly.

"Of course, Miss Du is Gongzi's guest, and she can go wherever she likes in this Yue Mansion. It's just that my son-in-law is so quiet, except for a few rough servants in the outer room and two mothers in the kitchen, there are only a few people who are waiting here for you before. So if Miss Liu wants to walk around, she can only do it herself. ”

Du Xiaomeng didn't mind: "That's just right." I also don't like to trouble people, and I'm not used to being followed. ”

"I'm going to decoct the medicine for my son, so I won't disturb Miss Liu's rest." Mr. Zhao turned around and walked out of the door, walked out of the door and turned back, "By the way, Miss Liu, if someone outside asks about your identity, you can say that you are my niece, so that no one will embarrass you." ”

"Understood, thank you Mr. Zhao!" Du Xiaomeng paused, "By the way, Mr. Zhao, is he okay with his father-in-law?" ”

"Fortunately, Miss Lao Yang is concerned." After speaking, Mr. Zhao nodded, turned around again and walked away quickly. Next to the courtyard where Yue Yunze and Du Xiaomeng were located was another courtyard that was larger.

Mr. Zhao's pace slowed down, and at this time, Shangguan Hong and Qiu Sha, who had been waiting for him for a long time, surrounded him, and both of them looked a little nervous and asked, "Mr. Zhao, how is he doing?" ”

"It's okay, it's just a little cold, just rest in the house for two days and don't blow the cold wind."

Shangguan Hong lowered his voice and asked, "So, what about the person of unknown origin?" ”

Mr. Zhao looked at the few people present and said slowly: "If that girl comes out for a walk, you go with her, and she can go wherever she likes." ”

Shangguan Hong and Qiu Sha glanced at each other, and thoughtfully responded in unison: "Yes, my subordinates understand." ”

Mr. Zhao narrowed his eyes, carefully thinking back to the first meeting with the stranger just now, in addition to probing her pulse, he had been observing her expression and reaction, but except for her strange speech, he did not find anything unusual about her. However, for a person of unknown origin and who also utters a bunch of strange words, it is not possible to determine whether she harbors evil intentions just by getting along for a moment and a half. Even if she is like an old friend, she cannot relax her guard and temptation, and letting her walk around at will is always better than strictly guarding.

Du Xiaomeng, on the other side, decided to go out for a walk not long after Mr. Zhao left. Although she had changed into dry clothes and wanted to sleep after she had eaten her fill, it was not a pleasant thing to have wet hair on her head in the cold weather. Since Mr. Zhao said that he could let her walk around Yue's mansion at will, then don't waste his kindness, go out and find someone to ask for a stove or something like that to dry her hair, and by the way, dry Yue Yunze's cloak that looks quite expensive despite the smell of medicine, so that it can be returned to him.

Du Xiaomeng looked left and right out of the door, and saw that there was an arch on the left and right sides of the courtyard, she recalled the direction where Mr. Zhao left just now, and without thinking too much, she raised her feet and walked to the arch on the left.
