Chapter 465: The Soil on which the Wall Built

When Wu Gou conveyed Yu Xia's words, the expressions of several people in the Ku family were stunned.

Shi Mei frowned and winked at Yu Xia several times.

Yu Xia seemed to guess who the young man was.

Sure enough, Ku Zongshan sighed, "Originally, there was a servant in my family, named Xiuniang, who was a Central Plains woman I happened to save on the way to do business abroad, and later lived in our house, specializing in cleaning and sewing clothes. ”

Sure enough, it was the showgirl.

"And what about her now?"

The master and servant of the Ku family all sighed, revealing a hint of regret.

"Four years ago, she disappeared."

Yu Xia glanced at Shi Mei and found that her eyes were red and she looked sad.

"Four years ago, I took Uncle Zhang out to do business, and my wife was seriously ill for a while, so I asked Sister-in-law Chun and Xiuniang to help Lan Gu take care of Mrs. Dian, and when I came back after leaving for half a month, my wife told me that Xiuniang was gone, and I sent someone out to look for it, but she seemed to have evaporated from the world, and there was no trace of her."

Yu Xia set her eyes on Mrs. Ku.

Mrs. Ku is three years older than Ku Zongshan, which means that it is very auspicious whether it is in the Central Plains or in Shikou Village. Ku Zongshan himself also thinks that the reason why his business is so smooth is because his wife brought him "gold bricks".

Mrs. Ku is a little old, and she first followed Ku Zongshan to raise pigs, and suffered a lot, even if she is pampered now, it is difficult to hide her haggard look.

Yu Xia looked at her face slightly, she did have the appearance of a prosperous husband, and she was also a diligent and thrifty woman who was suitable for housework.

Mrs. Ku frowned slightly, and a wistful look appeared on her face.

"I was sick in bed for a while, and the restraint on the servants was relaxed, and Xiuniang came to my house a few days ago, even if she didn't have any work, she would talk to me while embroidering a handkerchief. But on the eighth day, she was gone. Sister-in-law Chun went to the lower room to look for her, but she didn't find her, so she went to the village to ask, and everyone said that they hadn't seen her. ”

After listening to Wu Gou's words, Yu Xia looked at Sister-in-law Chun again.

Wu Gou understood what Yu Xia meant, and asked Sister-in-law Chun to tell her about those days.

Sister-in-law's rhetoric is not much different from Mrs. Ku's, but there is a little more information.

"I see, she just secretly fled back to the Central Plains, she said more than once that the Central Plains is good, if she hadn't been rescued by the master, she would have returned to the Central Plains if she died."

Yu Xia glanced at Wu Gou, and Sister-in-law Fang Caichun said a lot, but there were more than a few words.

Wu Gou smiled awkwardly, "She also said a lot of swearing, so I won't relay it." ”

It seems that Xiuniang and Sister-in-law Chun don't get along well.

The maid Langu said the same, and her disdain for Xiuniang could be seen from her expression.

"At that time, there was a Central Plains businessman in the village, because of the language barrier, I asked Xiuniang to be the middleman, and the two of them went in and out every day.

Yu Xia was noncommittal, these two female servants had too many private goods in their words, and they couldn't believe all of them, as for this Mrs. Ku, she was sick in bed at the time, and what she knew was also very one-sided.

Yu Xia and Bai Zhenqian glanced at each other and proposed to go to the village for a walk, because the feng shui of a house cannot only look at the internal structure, but also may be affected by the external environment. By the way, I also inquired about Xiu Niang.

Wu Gou followed the group out, and after a few steps out, he turned his head in surprise.

"Stone Girl?"

Yu Xia also looked back, and Shi Mei didn't know when she ran out of the house and followed them.

"Gagula flowers will be in the corner, and you will love it if you have three tops and five Ah Feng couples."

Wu Gou explained, "She said that people in Shikou Village rarely talked to outsiders, so she took us with her. ”

It seems that the stone girl is really interested in that showgirl.

Yu Xia smiled slightly, beckoned to Shi Mei, and then held her.

"Jigula is close to the big ang valve stem, and you can borrow it."

Shimei said.

"She said Xiuniang was a good person."

This is because I am afraid that I will listen to the words of the spring sister-in-law and have an opinion on Xiuniang.

Yu Xia smiled and rubbed her head, "Don't worry, I won't listen to bias." ”

Wu Gou said a few words to Shi Mei, Shi Mei smiled happily, and also held Yu Xia's hand hard.

In fact, they had already seen the feng shui of Shikou Village when they first entered the village, but now that the sun is setting, there is nothing different except that the light is a little dim.

"It's really weird, it doesn't look like a feng shui problem."

Bai Zhenqian was at a loss and a little frustrated.

"It can't be that the couple didn't have nightmares at all, and they lied to people, right?"

Bai Zhenqian glanced at Wu Hook, "Is the remuneration you receive for Feng Shui a high level in Yulu County?" ”

The implication is that the Kus don't want to give money, so they deliberately find excuses to find faults.

Wu Gou was stunned, then shook his head with a smile.

"No, ten taels of silver is not a lot of money for the Ku family, and every time I come over, the carriages and horses are arranged by the Ku family, and it costs a few taels of silver to rent these, and every time I come, it is good to eat and drink and entertain, they can't do this."

Bai Zhenqian pursed her lips, "I just said that this is such a possibility, no matter how we look at it, maybe they are really lying?" Maybe it's not trying to save money, but for another purpose? ”

Ling Wufeng said, "It can't be pretended, the pulse of the two of them can't be faked." ”

Bai Zhenqian glanced at him, "Then it's not necessarily because I had a nightmare that I didn't rest, maybe it's because of something else?" Nightmares are just a pretext for them. ”

Ling Wufeng saw the thin anger on Bai Zhenqian's face, swallowed the words that came to his lips again, and then nodded seriously.

"You have a point."

"I think there's something wrong with their house." Cheng Buchi, who had been silent, suddenly said.

When he first entered the warehouse, Cheng Buchi also looked around, because he was not very ventilated and had a dull temperament, and several people didn't expect him to express any opinions, but they didn't expect him to say this suddenly.

"What's going on?"

Cheng Buchi looked at the house with a slightly condensed expression.

"In the eyes of our casters, different casting materials also have different 'qi', and when I looked at their house just now, the 'qi' was a little strange."

"The houses here are all earthen buildings, the inside is wood or bamboo, and the outside is made of loess or cedar soil, this gas should also be slightly yellowish earth gas, even if there is wood in the middle, it is just a little restraint of 'rustic atmosphere'."

"So in the eyes of our Xuanshi, the walls of their house should be brown and yellow no matter how you look at it."

Yu Xia couldn't help but nodded, although he may not be able to observe as meticulously as Cheng Buchi, but the so-called "rustic" can still be slightly distinguished with the naked eye.

"But the Ku family, the color of the walls of their house is gray in the soil, and it is slightly darker." Cheng is not too late to say.
