Chapter Eighty-Four: The Master of the Mansion (4)
Tie Lang and Red Sleeves hurriedly greeted and reported their names, and the woman also signed up: "The little woman Caryophyllum is the Caryophyllus of the Caryophyllum grass."
Red Sleeves stepped forward and said, "How can my sister live in such a remote place, isn't she afraid of being alone?"
Shi Zhu smiled lightly and said, "What's so scary?"
Red Sleeves shrunk his neck and said, "Those crows and those night civets, everywhere, how can they not be scary"
Shi Zhu smiled even deeper: "That crow is very different from chickens, ducks and geese, and the night raccoon dog is just like a pig and a dog, as long as you eat and drink enough, you will not disturb people."
Red Sleeves smiled and said, "Sister is so bold, I can't do it, I will be scared when I see those things" While speaking, he walked around the hole.
Tie Lang looked at the cave two feet square, except for a bed and a few grain tanks in the cave, there was nothing else to cover, and the red sleeves looked too carefully here and there.
Tie Lang smiled and said: "Why does the girl only live here, it is better to go to the downtown to find a place to live, it is much more convenient than here."
Shi Zhu said: "My father and mother were burned to death in this Zhiming Building, and I want to accompany them here"
Red Sleeves sighed and said, "Where is my sister's ancestor in Kaifeng, has my sister never left here?"
Shi Zhu said: "My family's ancestral home is Hangzhou, since my parents passed away, I have been here, and occasionally go to Hangzhou to buy some food"
Red Sleeves took out a gold leaf and handed it to Shi Zhu and said: "My sister is so hard-working, and so filial, she is really a model for my sister, this gold leaf will subsidize my sister's family."
Shi Zhu looked at the gold leaf in the red sleeve's hand but said: "A person is used to hardship, if you have money, I'm afraid it will be difficult to stay here anymore, thank you girl"
Red Sleeves smiled faintly and put away the gold leaf and said, "In this way, my sister will not disturb my sister's cultivation."
Tie Lang stood in the cave for a while and walked out, Ren Hongsleeve and Shi Zhu chatted inside, Jiang Basket came out and pointed to a lush underground in front of and below: "This is all planted by my sister herself."
Tie Lang nodded, just as Red Sleeves came out and said, "Let's go, let's go and see elsewhere"
Red Sleeves smiled and said, "Okay" turned his face to the Shi Zhu who sent it out and said, "Goodbye, Miss Kong"
The caryophyllum shook his hand with a smile first, and when he heard the red sleeves call Miss Kong, his face couldn't help but change greatly, and he smiled reluctantly: "My sister remembered wrong, the little woman's name is Caryophyllus, Caryophyllus of Caryophyllum grass"
Red Sleeves chuckled when he heard this: "Caryophyllum is a northern herb, and it has never been south of the Huai River.
Seeing that Shi Zhu looked at him in amazement and couldn't speak for a long time, Red Sleeves continued: "If you say that my sister is poor and old, and I believe in fame and fortune, but anyone who sees this gold leaf will inevitably have a stirring expression, but my sister is light when she sees it, she must have seen a person with great wealth, isn't it Sister Kong?"
As soon as these words came out, Shi Zhu was silent, but Tie Lang was stunned, and said in his heart, could it be that this woman is really the heir of Zhiming Building, but why is she so down?
Shi Zhu sighed and said: "I have lived in seclusion here for more than ten years, but I was unexpectedly recognized by a girl, yes, that Zhiming Building is indeed my home, but it has fallen to such a point here that I am here, if you are looking for revenge, do it, if you are fighting the autumn wind, please try it elsewhere"
Red Sleeves smiled and hid behind Tie Lang, and raised his eyebrows when he staggered with Tie Lang, meaning, I tricked her out, you can ask whatever you want. Before Tie Lang had probably told Red Sleeves about going to Hangzhou to investigate the Ming Building, but it was not detailed enough, if you want to really ask questions, only Tie Lang came.
Tie Lang looked at Shi Zhu, who was looking at him coldly, and felt a little unnatural in his heart, and said in his heart, no matter whether this Zhiminglou had done something sorry for Wu Musi before, now that it has fallen to such a point, there is no need for any punishment.
"Miss Shizhu, how did this Zhiming Building burn down?" Tie Lang finally remembered a question that was not too sharp.
"How do I know? I was only three or four years old at the time," Shi Zhu looked at Tie Lang warily.
Tie Lang thought about it reasonably, where did the three or four-year-old children know anything, so he continued to ask: "Then the people in the Zhiming Building can't all be burned down, what about the others, aren't there still shops on half a street?"
Shi Zhu's face was cold, and he said angrily: "Who are you, why do you ask about my family's old affairs?"
Tie Lang felt that he was indeed a little abrupt and said: "I am a person from Kaifeng, and I have a senior relative who came to Hangzhou with Boss Kong before, but I have not had contact for more than ten years, so let me come and find out."
Shi Zhu looked at Tie Lang with disdain and said: "Nonsense, there is no Kaifeng descendant in my family"
Tie Lang didn't know how to deal with it for a while, but who knew that Red Sleeves said outside the cave: "You said earlier that you were only three or four years old and didn't know so many things, and now you say that your family has no Kaifeng descendants, so do you know what happened back then or don't you know?"
Shi Zhu's face changed when he heard this, but he still said strongly: "If there is no Kaifeng registration, there is no Kaifeng registration, I say that if I know, of course I know, and if I don't know, I don't know."
Red Sleeves came in with a light smile, looked at Shi Zhu and said, "If I didn't go out to have a look, I would have been deceived by you."
Shi Zhu said hatefully: "Just you girl, where did I deceive you?"
Red Sleeves pointed to the quilt drying outside and said, "Why do you have so many quilts to use? And where did the piles of cemented quicklime under your courtyard come from? What are you for?"
Shi Zhu's face turned red when he heard this, and said: "But I want you to take care of it" He was even more angry and threw the teacup on the table into the stove at the door.
Tie Lang looked at Red Sleeves thoughtfully, and Red Sleeves smiled and said to Tie Lang: "Childe, there used to be a very deep cellar in Broken Jade Village to store medicinal materials and wine, but this cellar is easy to get damp as soon as it is deep.
Tie Lang exclaimed, "You mean there's a cellar here?"
Red Sleeves looked at Shi Zhu and said with a shallow smile: "There must be at least four people living in this cellar, because I gently sniffed the quilt that was drying in the right place, the aroma on each quilt is different, it is clearly not used by one person, this person's body fragrance is one person at a time, and it can't be fake."
Shi Zhu couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard this, got up and shouted: "It's nonsense, go quickly."
That Jiang Basket heard Shi Zhu's angry shouts and couldn't help but come in to take a look, and looked at the three of them timidly, Tie Lang saw Shi Zhu's anger, and knew that Red Sleeves had guessed correctly, so he had a bottom in his heart: "I have a deep relationship with Boss Kong, if the girl is really the owner of the Ming Building, please tell the truth."
The stone bamboo said: "I don't care what the relationship between you and Boss Kong is, I don't know if I don't know."
Tie Lang Xindao If it is a man, I will use it strong, but it is such a weak woman, wouldn't I use strong to make the world laugh. So there was nothing to be done for a while.
Red Sleeves giggled: "I think you don't have the temperament of a young lady's family, and now it seems that you, the owner of the Ming Building, are pretending, and of course you don't know so much about a maid."
Shi Zhu was stunned and said, "How do you know?"
Red Sleeves just giggled, no longer spoke, Tie Lang knew what he was going to say after pondering the right talent, and then laughed: "Then ask the girl to let your master come out to see"
Shi Zhu thought about it, and also knew that Shicai himself had said the wrong thing, so he stopped talking, but just sat there and pretended to be deaf and dumb without even raising his head.
Tie Lang saw her playing tricks like this, so he also expressed his attitude and said: "I came here from Kaifeng thousands of miles away, I just want to ask some old things, and I will never embarrass you, if you just resist like this, then I won't leave."
Shi Zhu glanced up at Tie Lang, his eyes were very helpless and frightened, but he was still silent. Red Sleeves looked at Shi Zhu so tricky and smiled: "Childe is a big man, of course he can't be ruthless, but I am a little woman who doesn't care about any reputation, I know at least three or four ways to force the people in this cellar out"
Shi Zhu listened, and raised his eyes to look at Red Sleeves again, his eyes were full of hatred, but Red Sleeves said disappreciably: "Do you still want to bite me?"
After speaking, he took out a gold leaf and said to Jiang Basket, "Basket, can you drive the carriage?"
Jiang Basket said: "Yes, I will drive the carriage that pulls dung for the master's family."
Red sleeves smiled and said: "Okay, you take this money, go to Hangzhou City, call all the beggars, and say that there are delicious and delicious food waiting under this Songfeng Ridge, you go to the Qiantang Restaurant again, and let the delicious food and drink in the restaurant be sent to this Songfeng Ridge every day according to a gold leaf."
After speaking, he smiled and said to Shi Zhu: "I promise you won't let me spend three gold leaves."
Shi Zhu jumped up from the stool in anger and pounced on Red Sleeves, who dodged and said, "Don't you have to be lucky, when I don't know that this entrance is in this courtyard?"
When Shi Zhu heard this, he grabbed the kitchen knife on the stove like crazy, and waved it viciously, and then he heard a pleasant voice outside the cave: "Shi Zhu, who taught you to be so hospitable?"
