Chapter Twenty-Three: There Will Be No Pie in the Sky

In the evening of the same day, Tang Tong rode back from the training ground, and just arrived at the Wanquan Inn before he got off the horse, he suddenly heard someone shouting: "Tang Junye!", Tang Tong grabbed the horse and looked back to see that it was Deng Xiaoliu, and immediately jumped down.

Deng Xiaoliu ran over, with a flattering smile, "Master Tang!" The house has been vacated and you can move in on cloudy days!".

"Isn't it the day after tomorrow?", Tang Tong's face changed, and he was very puzzled.

Deng Xiaoliu shook his head deliberately, looking a little weird, "I don't know either!" In the afternoon, the servant came to me and said that you can move on a cloudy day, and he will wait for you.", after speaking, Deng Xiaoliu's face flashed, and he nodded and left.

Why did he go a day ahead of schedule and go in such a hurry, Tang Tong was very confused. After all, the battlefield rolls out, no matter what happens, you have to face it, whether it's good or bad, everything will wait for a cloudy day.

The next day, I left the room early the next morning, set up the car and took the luggage, Huzi and Yao's mother sat in the car, Lao Jing drove the car, and Tang Tong rode a horse to lead the way. Before coming to buy a new house. As soon as he knocked on the door, a servant came out, handed the key to Tang Tong, and left without a word. Although he was full of doubts, the servant did as he was told, and did not know too much. At this point, there is nothing to fear, so I can only lead the three of them into the courtyard.

Lao Jing looked around the house very seriously, wanting to remember the structure of the yard and see if there were any hidden dangers, so that they could be eliminated in time. Yao's mother held the tiger, she was very excited, and finally she didn't have to live in a noisy inn, and she had a comfortable nest. And Huzi just felt very novel, and the two little eyes kept looking, and it was the first time to see such a big yard.

This is a three-entry courtyard house, although it is not a new house, but it is not old, especially in front of each door is a wooden jacara, the black handwriting is clearly visible, and the japonica has not fallen off and damaged. The window is pasted with white paper, and there is no peeling, and there are window flowers, which shows the novelty, and the owner of the shade is very cherished.

There are five main rooms in the backyard, two side rooms on both sides, the vestibule of the main house is a large living room with a width of one or three rooms, and the middle is the meeting room and the meeting room, where the host's lectures are carried out. On the left is the dining room, on the right is the study where you can also meet distinguished guests, and there is a wing room on each side, and the door is open to the backyard.

The middle courtyard is paved with blue brick pebbles, and the four corners are planted with many flowers and plants, and there is a brick paddock. There are four wings on each side. In front of the middle courtyard is a partition wall, and a hanging flower door is opened in the middle to the front yard. There are two servants' rooms on each side of the door, the four wings on the left serve as kitchens, and the four wings on the right serve as stables.

There is no decoration in the front yard, an open area, some sundries can be placed on both sides on weekdays, and twelve tables of banquets can be placed on festive days, but it does not hurt. This is a place where the servants of the family live, and it can also protect the safety of the owner's family, if you enter from the backyard, it is another matter, but the backyard is built of high bricks, and it is not accessible to ordinary people.

In the middle is the gate, there is a shadow wall blocking the view of passers-by, and there are two inverted rooms on each side. There are thirty-eight rooms, twenty-seven of which can accommodate people. I also sent furniture, and it was worth it to spend three hundred and eighty taels to buy this house.

Most of the items in the courtyard have not been removed, and there are a lot of pots and pans left, all of which are worthless things. Even some bedding is left, the tables, chairs and benches in the large living room are complete, valuable objects are taken away, and the small things at home are left even more.

Tang Tong decided to live in the main room in the backyard, Yao's mother took Huzi to live in a wing room on the right side of the middle courtyard, and Lao Jing lived in an inverted room near the gate. Tang Tong unloaded the luggage, the threshold of the gate can be removed, and the horses and carriages pass unimpeded, which is what Tang Tong values the most. Tang Tong's mount had to be fed with grass every night, and it had to have stables that couldn't be kept outside, and it had to be easy to get in and out. After getting the carriage in and cleaning up, Tang Tong was ready to go to the training ground, and instructed Lao Jing to buy some daily necessities in the afternoon after cleaning up, and cook at night, which was considered to be officially moving in.

Tang Tong packed up and was about to go out when seven or eight people suddenly rushed in and pushed Lao Jing in the front yard aside. I saw a fat man rushing in the middle and shouting, "Who ate the bear's heart and leopard gall, dare to live in this house, get out of here!", the attitude was very arrogant.

The rest of the people shouted in unison, "Come out!" Come out! Hurry up and get out of here!".

Tang Tong, who was in the middle courtyard, heard the noise, rushed out with a knife, and saw a group of murderers pointing at him. Tang Tong raised the knife and asked loudly, "What do you want to do?".

Seeing a rude man with a scar on his face and a knife in his hand, as if he was about to kill someone, those who shouted were so frightened that they didn't dare to squeak anymore.

The fat man was stunned at first, and then thought about it in a blink of an eye, he was not afraid of being strong, so he shouted to Tang Tong: "You bought this house?" Don't want to live anymore, do you know who it is?".

Tang Tong has seen a lot of big scenes, these little shrimps are not a problem, and he said sharply: "I don't know!".

"Don't know? Do you know Zou Ye?", the fat guy asked rhetorically without showing weakness.

"Who is Master Zou?", Tang Tong looked disdainful in his eyes.

The fat guy has never seen such an unreasonable person, and he doesn't even know about Zou Ye in the outer city, he must be a foreigner, "What a raw melon egg, does Lord Lin Chang Yaolin know?".

Lin Changyao's person Tang Tong knew, this person could not afford to offend, so he lowered his voice and asked, "Is it Lord Lang Lin left by the Criminal Department?"

Seeing that Lin Changyao's name had played a role, the fat man came up arrogantly, and said arrogantly: "Count you as acquaintances!" Don't hurry up and get out!", he was about to get in front of Tang Tong as he spoke.

Tang Tong knew that he couldn't force himself with this group of people, and he still had many important things to do, so he still relented, "I bought this house for three hundred and eighty taels, you have to give me money!".

The fat man saw that Tang Tong was not as tough as before, so he stepped forward and looked very dragged, "Money? Robbed Zou Ye's house, and still want money?", paused, "But our Zou Ye is still reasonable, this is fifty taels, get out of here quickly!", After speaking, he threw the silver on the ground.

Looking at the fifty taels of silver on the ground, not even a fraction is enough, and dividing the yin is too deceitful. Tang Tong was so angry that he swung his knife violently, if it was in Xuanfu, Tang Tong would have hit the ground with a knife. For these people who have never been on the battlefield and have never seen killing, if one person's head is cut off, the others will long be scared stupid, and they will only be cut off.

Tang Tong had a zigzag scar on his face, and he waved the knife again, and he looked like a fierce god. The fat family is here to do errands, a knife on the tip of a knife to beg for a living, kill someone and go up the mountain to become a bandit, it is not worth losing his life. Seeing that Tang Tong had relented, but he gave less money, he was angry with everyone, and it was better not to provoke him, so he took a few steps back.

"Give you a day, I'll collect the house on a cloudy day!", the fat family threw down a sentence, Yin Zhe protected himself, and left with the others.

Tang Tong raised the knife and shouted: "The deed is in my hand, if you want to grab it, you have to see if the knife in my hand agrees or not!", the gang didn't dare to entangle with Tang Tong anymore, and left without replying.

"Sir! What should I do?", Lao Jing looked at the angry Tang Tong and asked.

Tang Tong thought for a while, then turned to Lao Jing and said; "Clean up first, I'll live here tonight, I'll go out and think of a way!", after speaking, he took the horse and turned back to Lao Jing, "Close the door and don't go out!" I'll be back soon!", after saying that, he got on his horse and ran to the Wanquan Inn.

Come to Wanquan Inn and tie the horse to the stone pillar next to the gate and walk into the lobby. I saw the dragon shopkeeper on the counter. He stepped forward and asked, "Shopkeeper, do you know where Deng Xiaoliu lives?"

The shopkeeper seemed to know about the house, and immediately stepped forward, "Master Tang!" Did something happen to the house?".

Tang Tong nodded, and after listening to Tang Tong's brief description, the shopkeeper Long sighed, "He must have been nearby when that group of people entered the Liang Mansion, and now he has already run away when he sees this, he has not settled in the capital, and the lonely family went there to find him?".

Seeing that Tang Tong was silent, "I know the house, but I am afraid that something will happen to me, so I didn't say anything about you, or Deng Xiaoliu killed you!".

Tang Tong thought about it seriously, it was useless to find Deng Xiaoliu now, as long as he knew the ins and outs of the matter and found a way to deal with it. So he asked, "Dragon shopkeeper!" You should know what's going on, right?"..

At this time, the dragon shopkeeper set up a shelf, and said slowly: "Is this this!".

Tang informed him of his intentions and threw him a tael of silver, and the dragon shopkeeper took a tael of silver, and immediately changed his attitude and began to tell Tang Tong the ins and outs of the Yin matter.
