Chapter 209: Swordless Villa
When the owner of Gongsun Shaozhuang saw that the invited guests were watching, he stopped and wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.
Walked up to Xiao Qisan and hugged his fists and said, "I don't know if you can do martial arts?" I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, and I can fight dozens of them at a time. ”
The young master of Gongsun pointed to several family members who fell to the ground, one of them had already gotten up halfway, and when he heard the young master say this, he simply lay back on the ground and pretended to be dead.
The young owner of Gongsun said to the little servant beside him: "Go and ask Steward Li to bring someone to treat their injuries." ”
After breakfast, Xiao Qi and a few people followed Gongsun Shaozhuang to the second floor of a two-story wooden pavilion in the courtyard to drink tea and chat, but the tea was filled with lotus leaves.
Gongsun Shaozhuang was a little embarrassed, "My father has always been thrifty, so the family uses lotus leaves instead of tea." ”
Mu Ziqi: "It's been raining all the time, and it's very hot. The lotus ** is good, just to clear the heat and relieve the heat. ”
Xiao Qi stood on the second floor and looked down, and saw that vegetables were planted everywhere in the villa, and the pond on the west side was full of lotus leaves, and the pink lotus flowers on it were very delicate.
In the corner, there were a few chickens, clucking, and in the side room, donkeys covered in black cloth were spinning around the stone mill.
Xiao Qi: "Your villa is very different. ”
"My father said that thrift is a virtue, so the family is basically self-sufficient."
A servant came over with a plate, "Young master, I received a total of six walnuts, which were personally sent down by the owner." ”
This is really an eye-opener, such a large mountain villa, the food is so saving, and the owner of the village has to count and send down a few walnuts himself.
Ah Mo craned his neck to look at the plate, wanting to see what kind of walnut it was, "Is this walnut expensive?" ”
Gongsun Shaozhuang: "I didn't spend any money, I picked it up on the back mountain." ”
The little guy put down his plate and picked up the hammer on the side, ready to help them smash the walnuts.
Xiao Qi took the hammer in Xiao Xiao's hand, "You have to do it yourself to eat this." ”
As a result, Xiao Qiyi smashed it with a hammer, and the wooden floor collapsed in half, and the entire second floor was shaky.
The crowd ran out of the pavilion in a panic and arrived at the open space in the courtyard.
Soon the pavilion collapsed in front of them.
Xiao Qi was very apologetic, "Gongsun Shaozhuang, I'm so embarrassed, I will compensate for how much money I lost." ”
Mu Ziqi patted Xiao Qi's shoulder, "When you can control your divine power, you will become a real master." ”
Gongsun Shaozhuang looked at Xiao Qi with sparkling eyes, "This Xiao Qi girl is so powerful, why don't I teach you to learn martial arts, I believe you will soon become a martial arts master." ”
Ah Mo was stunned when he heard this......
Soon the owner of Gongsun Zhuang ran over with an abacus,
While planning to make a plate, he said: "The wood used for this pavilion cost one hundred taels five years ago, and now it is two hundred taels after counting the interest, and the labor used to build this pavilion adds up to a total of five hundred taels." ”
Xiao Qi hurriedly went back to the house to find a purse, which contained several silver tickets given to her by Zhu Yuan.
When she found the purse and opened it, she found that the silver ticket in the purse was already wet.
Alas, oh no, Aunt Xi had already told her many times that she would put away the money and things, but this time she was careless again, and she secretly decided in her heart that she must pay more attention in the future.
After Xiao Qi left the house, he picked up a small box from the carriage.
When she opened it, there were small Western mirrors, peach blossom pendants, silver bracelets given to her by Pear Blossom, and the phoenix hairpin picked up by Liujia Village, which the old patriarch told her to carry with her.
In addition, there are some gold and silver bills in it.
Xiao Qi touched this, touched like that, and was reluctant to give up.
Only a few silver bills were taken out.
Gongsun Shaozhuang: "Dad, these are all guests I invited, or don't let them lose money." ”
Gongsun Zhuang "Father has taught you since you were a child, the matter of money must be calculated clearly, you must not suffer a loss, this pavilion must be compensated." ”
Mu Ziqi took out the silver ticket and handed it to Xiao Qi, "I have a silver ticket here." ”
Xiao Qi: "Thank you, I'll give it back to you when I go back." ”
The owner of Gongsun Zhuang inadvertently looked into the box and said, "May I ask the girl's surname?" ”
"The surname is Liu."
"The surname Liu is rare."
Xiaoqi: "I used to live in Liujia Village, Fenghuang Town, and almost all of us in the village were surnamed Liu. ”
……
In the evening, the lord of Gongsun invited them to dinner again, but this time there was wine, and there was fish and meat.
Mu Zishan said in a low voice: "This wine and food will not accept our silver." ”
Xiao Qi nodded, "Very likely." ”
The owner of Gongsun Zhuang raised his wine glass, "Yesterday's hospitality was not good, and today I specially asked the housekeeper to prepare more wine and food, you are not polite." ”
Mu Ziqi "The owner of Gongsun Zhuang is polite, this rainy day, it is not easy to prepare so many dishes, thank you for the hospitality of Gongsun Zhuang." ”
The wine was very mellow, and the two of them were drunk unconsciously.
When Xiao Qi and the others woke up, they found that they were locked, and they were locked with iron chains.
Ah Mo moved, and the iron chain rattled.
"Young master, it's over, we won't meet a pervert, right?"
Xiao Qi looked around and saw a few oil lamps lit on the wall, and several boxes of gold and silver were neatly stacked on the wall.
She shook the chain on her hand and said, "There are no windows, this should be a dungeon." ”
Mu Ziqi "may be a secret room, a secret room used by the owner of Gongsun Zhuang to hide silver." ”
Xiao Qi was a little puzzled, "This Gongsun Zhuang owner is really strange, he obviously has so much silver, and he still saves like that." ”
Several people chatted for a long time, and finally waited for the owner of Gongsun Zhuang, who was holding Xiao Qi's phoenix hairpin in his hand.
"Why did you take my phoenix hairpin?" Xiao Qi stared, this is her favorite phoenix hairpin.
The owner of Gongsun Zhuang had a hideous face, "Explain quickly, where did this phoenix hairpin come from?" ”
Xiao Qi: "I picked it up in the village. ”
"Where's the treasure map with this hairpin?"
Xiao Qi: "I don't know about treasure maps, I've never heard of this thing. ”
The owner of Gongsun Zhuang instructed his subordinates, "Drag the two people next to you to kill them." ”
Xiao Qi was very anxious, and pulled the chain with a clattering sound, "Don't kill them, I know where the treasure map is." ”
She knew about a treasure map, which she had never heard of, but in order to save people, she had to lie, hoping to delay some time so that she could find a way to escape.
Gongsun Zhuang Master, "Don't hurry up and explain." ”
"The treasure map was hidden by me in Liujia Village. Liujia Village, Fenghuang Town, is where our Liu clan lives. "Anyway, the clansmen are in the cave now, and they won't be implicated.
The owner of Gongsun Zhuang said to the housekeeper behind him: "Go and make arrangements, and we will leave for Phoenix Town tomorrow." ”
The housekeeper obeyed the order and went out, and the owner of Gongsun Zhuang counted the boxes of gold and silver for a long time.
The little guy came over and refueled the oil lamp twice, and the owner of Gongsun Zhuang was busy.
Mu Ziqi: "No wonder these gold and silver are shiny and shiny, it turns out that it is the reason why people touch it every day." ”
On the second day, the owner of Gongsun Zhuang planned to personally escort the three of them to set off.
As soon as the carriage was ready, the young owner of Gongsun came over, and when he saw that his father was leaving, he stopped in front of the carriage.
"Dad, something is wrong, the guests I invited are gone?"
The owner of Gongsun Zhuang coughed twice, "The housekeeper told me that they have already said goodbye and left. ”
"But is their carriage still there? I've been to the backyard to see it, and the things in the carriage haven't moved. ”
The owner of Gongsun Farm patted his son on the shoulder, "They left these things for us as a thank you gift." ”
Gongsun Shaozhuang leaned into the carriage, "Dad, where are you going, and what is on the carriage?" ”
"Daddy went out and bought something."
"Dad, I'll go with you."
"Obedient, you stay with your mother at home." The owner of Gongsun Zhuang beckoned to the two little servants standing outside the courtyard gate, "Pull the young owner back." ”
