Xu Huaigu stepped into the threshold and walked into the Yi Mansion. The furnishings of Yifu are still similar to those of many years ago, and the rockery pond is still in place, but the trees and flowers in the courtyard are obviously lacking in care, and the trees are growing wildly, overgrown with weeds, and it looks a little messy.

Xu Huaigu carefully observed the surroundings as he walked along the path through the garden and towards the house behind him.

Yifu covers a large area, in addition to the main house where Yi Xingping lives, the left and right wings, the study, and the living room are all available, Xu Huaigu's goal is to go to these abandoned houses to have a look and find the origin of the sloppy man.

Soon, he walked through the garden to the place where the backyard lived. I don't know if I don't see this, but I really shocked Xu Huaigu when I saw it.

I saw that the backyard was full of people of all shapes and colors, middle-aged men with unshaven beards, laundry women, seven or eight-year-old children scurrying around, and a few month-old children crying in swaddling clothes.

Xu Huaigu couldn't help but be a little surprised, he looked around, and calculated in his heart, just as far as his eyes could see, it was estimated that there would be fifty or sixty people.

These people stuffed the left and right west wings of the Yi Mansion to the brim, and even the study was transformed into a place to live.

And judging by their clothing, even the common people are not as good, like a poor family. The sloppy man he had seen at the door before was also among them, and he was sitting on the floor with a few other men, playing cards and gambling for money, and he was very happy.

Xu Huaigu felt a little pain in his eyebrows. Originally, if something unpleasant happened in this mansion, he would have to rely on him to help settle it, but now there are too many people in this mansion, right?

Besides, he still hasn't figured out what happened to Yifu, and where did these people come from?

If you don't figure out what happened, it's not easy to deal with it. He decided not to take action for the time being, and went to see Yi Xingping first.

Xu Huaigu walked forward, through the bustling crowd, and walked towards the main house. Those people who were messing around didn't have the slightest surprise when they saw him, they just glanced at it lightly, and then continued to do their own thing, which made Xu Huaigu even more strange in his heart.

The door of the main house was unlocked, and Xu Huaigu gently pushed it open. The furnishings in the main room were clean and untouched, and when I went inside, I pushed open a door, and there was a bed next to the wall, and a middle-aged man in his fifties was lying on the bed, who was sleeping soundly.

This is Yi Xingping, Xu Huaigu has seen it, and his appearance has not changed much from eight or nine years ago.

Although he lost his soul and soul, he only lost his memory and became insane, but it was not life-threatening, so his complexion was no different from that of ordinary people.

Xu Huaigu didn't bother him, but walked around the room and found a lot of traces of man-made care.

It seems that although there is chaos outside, there are still people in the main house who manage it, and Yi Xingping is not harmed.

In this way, the situation in Yifu does not seem to be too bad. Since there are people in this main house who take care of it, the person who takes care of it will come sooner or later, and he must know the origin of this group of people in Yifu.

Xu Huaigu simply sat down in the room and waited quietly. About an hour later, the sun had risen to its highest point, and it was already noon.

Xu Huaigu closed his eyes on the chair to recuperate, but suddenly heard a noise of gongs and drums outside the house, he quickly opened his eyes, stood up and looked out the window.

The gongs and drums sounded a few times, and those who lived in Yifu seemed to have received the order, and began to gradually put down their work and go to the garden in front of them.

Xu Huaigu was curious again, what are these people going to do? So he also left the main house, and went with them in the footsteps of the people.

In a short time, he came to the place where the crowd had gathered. I saw that they had formed a long line, as if they were waiting for something.

Xu Huaigu didn't line up, he walked through the crowd and looked at the front of the line, only to see that everyone was queuing up to receive two truckloads of fresh fruits and vegetables.

Next to the car, a lean old man stood and handed out vegetables to everyone. Xu Huaigu's eyes lit up, the person standing next to the car handing out vegetables was the one he had ever seen.

That person's name is Tang Fu, he is the housekeeper of Yifu, in order to ask Huang Shan to treat Yi Xingping's illness, he knelt at the door of Huang Shan's room for a whole night, and because of this, Xu Huaigu was particularly impressed by him.

Seeing him in this chaotic Yifu at this time, Xu Huaigu seemed to have taken a reassuring pill, as long as he was still there, the things he wanted to come to Yifu must still be under control.

Xu Huaigu didn't bother Tang Fu, he just stood under the tree and waited, and waited until Tang Fu had finished dividing all the things in the car and pulled the car aside to put it away, and then walked forward.

After being busy for a while, Tang Fu sweated a lot on his forehead, he wiped his sweat with his sleeve, and was about to go to the backyard to see Yi Xingping, but he turned his head and saw Xu Huaigu.

Busy a person appeared behind him, Tang Fu was taken aback, and after a closer look, this person did not look like a refugee taken in by the Yi Mansion, and he couldn't help frowning a little.

When Xu Huaigu saw his confused appearance, he smiled and said, "Steward Tang doesn't know me?" ”

"You know me?" Tang Fu's eyebrows raised, very surprised,

"Dare to ask Mr. Honorable Name, but what does my lord know?" Xu Huaigu smiled: "I really don't even know me anymore." My name is Xu Huaigu, and I was originally acquainted with your young lady and Huang Shan, do you remember? Tang Fu's expression froze, and he looked at Xu Huaigu carefully, and saw that it was really him, so he hurriedly smacked his lips and said, "Oh, it turned out to be Xu Xianchang!" Long time no see, long time no see! Look at my memory, the older you get, the more confused you become, you have a lot of immortals, you must not be compared to my old man! Xu Huaigu saw that he was really a little restrained in front of him, and hurriedly said, "Steward Tang, where is this?" I know your master, so I have returned to Xingqing these days and come to visit. Eight or nine years have passed, not to mention that you can't recognize me, or I don't dare to recognize you anymore, it's all human nature, what's the matter! When Tang Fu heard this, he was a little grateful for a while, with tears in his eyes, and bowed to Xu Huaigu: "The things of the past, thanks to Xu Xianchang's maneuvering, my head of the family can live to this day." Now that Xu Xianchang has come to visit, I didn't even prepare in advance, I'm really ashamed, ashamed! Xu Huaigu hurriedly persuaded: "Steward Tang doesn't have to be so sad, I originally came here today to find Huang Shan and Yi Yun to talk about the old relationship, but I didn't see the two of them, but I met the group of people who distributed vegetables and fruits you just now." May I ask the old butler, where did all these people come from? Why do you live in Ifuri? Tang Fu suddenly replied, "Oh, these people, they are just refugees from outside." Since Xu Xianchang has come to Xingqing, I'm afraid he has also heard about something, it is rumored that the south of Dayu Kingdom is going to war with other countries! There was a lot of uproar, and these people had fled from the south. ”

"But the Yi Mansion is a private mansion, how can they come in?" Tang Fu paused, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Well, I actually let them in." Xu Huaigu smiled and said, "No wonder, I just said how did you give them food just now, it turns out that you took in these refugees." Tang Fuben was still a little frightened, for fear that Xu Huaigu would not like this.

When he saw Xu Huaigu smiling, he dared to smile and echo: "That's true, a group of them have no food or accommodation outside, and it's quite pitiful, just like me when I was young at that time, I was moved with compassion, thinking that anyway, the Yifu is so big, and it is a bit of a waste for me to live with the master." So I wrote a letter to the young lady and asked her what she meant, and she agreed, so I invited them in. I think this can be regarded as our Yi family's good deeds and accumulation of virtue, maybe God will look at this and make the master get better as soon as possible. Xu Huaigu nodded, and asked again: "This group of people doesn't do anything, they have to rely on you to provide food every day, and you don't have a way to make money, where did you get so much money?" Tang Fu hurriedly said: "Isn't this the blessing of Immortal Xu and your group?" For many years, Miss has been thinking about her home, and she always has to send a letter every month to ask about the situation in Yifu, and then she will send some silver taels back together. I know that Miss has no way to make money, where does the money come from? It's not that Yellow Immortal who has a good heart and helps our family. Huang Xianchang is really a rare good person, and he has the grace of reinvention for our Yi family! Xu Huaigu thought with a smile in his heart, he didn't think that Huang Shan, who had never wanted to be a good person, would be praised like this one day, if he heard it with his own ears, he would not be ashamed to die.

"By the way, speaking of Huang Xian Chang and Miss, I remember another thing. Last month, they wrote that they were on their way back to Xingqing, and that they had found a cure for my lord's illness, and told me to prepare the carriage and horses, and as soon as they returned to Xingqing, I would leave with my lord immediately. I wondered what was going on in such a hurry, and I thought I was going to leave quickly before anyone came back, so I also wrote back to ask, but I haven't received a reply so far, so I must have to wait for the two of them to come back and ask in person. Xu Huaigu heard this and lowered his head to think.

In this way, Huang Shan must have also learned the news from the south of Dayu Kingdom, and it seems that he has always mixed well over the years.

It doesn't matter if he wants to go, it's just that Xu Huaigu and him must meet and tell him about Zuoqiu Xun, they are all close friends who were side by side back then, and he has the right to know.

Xu Huaigu asked, "Did they say when it would arrive?" Tang Fu replied seriously: "When it comes to hurrying, sometimes it is sunny and sometimes rainy, how can there be a specific day?" But it will be around in a few days. I know that Xu Xianchang must want to see them, please rest assured, as soon as they come back, I will immediately bring you news, and you will naturally be able to meet them when the time comes. Xu Huaigu advised: "Then please bother the old housekeeper." I'll stay in the same inn as I was back then, and when they come back, be sure to come and tell me right away, thank you. Tang Fu agreed, Xu Huaigu said a few more words to him to take care of his body, and then said goodbye to Yifu and went back to the inn.
