dream of red mansion

Chapter 368 Yangzhou Courtyard
"This, as you all know, I was still young when I was in Yangzhou, so..."

Now that it had been exposed, and he did not find the small courtyard before they found out, Jia Qing could only admit it with a shy face.

It was the same, when he woke up in the small yard, Jia Jing sent Lai Sheng to take him back to Jia's mansion within a few days. Except for looking at the gate when Cui Liu was about to get off work, he didn't go to play nearby at all. Pass.Most importantly, he didn't even know the name of the place where the small courtyard was located.

Hearing that it was indeed the case, all three of Daiyu couldn't help but look at Jia Qing with complaints.

Qingwen said: "Second Master, you are really too. If you can't find it, just say you can't find it. You still have to lie to others, causing us to go so far for nothing."

Jia Qing suddenly became unhappy, and said: "Did you leave for nothing? If that's the case, quickly hand over the things I bought for you just now!"

Qingwen was so frightened that she immediately put her hands behind her back.Just now, Jia Qing bought her a pair of gold bracelets
With a smug smile, Jia Qing looked at Daiyu and Zijuan again.

Daiyu is not Qingwen, she can be bullied by him.Instead, he said: "What do you think we are doing? It was your fault in the first place, anyway, now I can't walk anymore, I haven't seen Ying'er in the small courtyard you mentioned, I don't care, you have to make it up to us!"

Zicuckoo relied on the power of others, oh, it should be the servant who is the master, and she also looked at Jia Qing without fear.

Facing Daiyu, who had just been upgraded to a younger sister, Jia Qing had nothing to do with it, so he could only avoid the edge and said, "Okay, it's my fault. Since my sister is tired, then fine me to carry her to the carriage." OK?"

Daiyu looked at the carriage next to her, it was only so far away, obviously she had no sincerity!Moreover, looking at it like this, Jia Qing should be sending herself back.

Although her legs were sore, it was a rare time for her to come out, and she didn't want to go back, so she said:

"Aren't we going?"

Jia Qing could also see that Daiyu's playful spirit was still there, so he said, "Here, I want to go and see it too, but I can't find it, so I can't help it. How about we take a car and go out of the city for a stroll?"

"Wait." Jia Qing suddenly remembered that besides Lai Sheng, there were several people who followed him down to Yangzhou to pick him up.Perhaps, some of the people who followed this time knew about it.

So he asked Wang Shun to go down and ask.

Sure enough, there really was a person who happened to be in Yangzhou that year.

Looking at the servants in front of him, Jia Qing asked: "It was you and Mr. Lai who went to Yangzhou to pick me up?"

The servant of the Ningguo Mansion seemed a little excited, and happily replied: "Back to the second master, that's right, the young one went to Yangzhou with Mr. Lai, that afternoon"

"Then do you remember where I lived then?" Jia Qing interrupted his memory.

"I remember, the place where the second master lived is so small that I can't forget it. That place is in Liuxiang, Huajie."

"Flower Street and Willow Lane?" Jia Qing frowned.

The man hurriedly said: "Second Master misunderstood, that street is called Huajie, and the place where Second Master lives is in the willow alley of Huajie."

As he spoke, he wiped the sweat from his brow.

That's right, he also remembered that it didn't look like a place like Goulan Washe.

Once you know the name of the place, it's easy to find it.Considering the actual situation of Daiyu and others, they still went by car.

Another half an hour later, Jia Qing and his party finally arrived at Huajie.

Flower Street is a relatively large and lively place, and it is also very noisy at this time.

Even when Jia Qing and others came here, they did not cause much commotion.

While guarding the carriage of Jia Qing and others, Wang Shun asked where Liu Xiang was.In such a short while, we will reach our destination.

There are twenty or thirty families living in Liuxiang, and there are many people who come out to watch the movement at this time.

Jia Qing stepped out of the carriage and looked from house to house, and soon locked a dilapidated door.The door has changed a lot from the one in the impression, it is still half-closed in the dark.Although it is chained, people with smaller stature should be able to get in.

Behind the door is the home of "Jia Qing" and Cui Liu, and it is also the place where he first came.

Following Jia Qing's gaze, Wang Shun and others naturally understood the destination.Continue to drive the team forward and stop at the door.

At this time, Daiyu and the two also walked out of the carriage, and saw the dirty gate in front of them.Through the huge gap in the door, you can still see the more dilapidated courtyard inside.

"Come on down, this is it." Jia Qing walked over and stretched out his hand to hug Daiyu to get off the car.

Daiyu wrinkled her nose, but got out of the carriage obediently.

"Second Master, is this where you used to live?"

Clever as a cuckoo, he couldn't help asking.It shouldn't be, Jia Qing is the second master of Ningguo Mansion, how could he have lived in such a small and dilapidated courtyard?
Jia Qing smiled nonchalantly: "Don't underestimate it, it used to be very clean and beautiful."

After finishing speaking, he stopped explaining to the three people who were full of doubts, and ordered Wang Shun: "Open the door."

Although Jia Qing didn't quite have the heart to destroy this weather-beaten door again, but the key was brought back to the capital that year, so he had to force it open.

"Yes."

So Wang Shun called two people to break the lock.In just a few strokes, the rusty iron chain was broken.

"Ok?"

Qingwen suddenly said: "Second Lord, why do I think there are still people inside?"

Not only her, but also Jia Qing, who had been paying attention to the movements in the yard, also saw it.

Frowning, he said, "Wang Shun, take a few people in first to see what's going on."

Wang Shun took the order and ran back in a short while and said, "Second Master, I found a few little beggars inside."

Jia Qing understood, it turned out that because no one lived here for many years, the doves took over the magpie's nest.

"Second Master, do you want to drive them all out?" Wang Shun asked.

"It's okay."

Jia Qing shook his head, then said to Daiyu, "Do you want to go in and have a look?"

Daiyu and the others looked at the weeds in the yard and the broken things everywhere, and even the beams of the house inside seemed to be collapsing, so they were a little hesitant.

They have never been to such a dirty and dangerous place.

"Then you wait for me outside, I'll go in and have a look." Jia Qing didn't force them at all, and walked into the yard after giving them some instructions.

The yard is still the same yard, even the wooden table on the eaves of the entrance is still there.The first meal I ate in this world was made on it.

Go up the eaves sill along the three stone steps.There are only two houses in this yard, a bedroom and a hut.

The door of the bedroom was already watched by Wang Shun, lest the beggars inside would run out and bump into Jia Qing and the others.

"Second Master, you'd better not go in, it's very dirty inside." Seeing that Jia Qing was about to enter the house, Wang Shun quickly dissuaded him.

"The door opens."

As a last resort, Wang Shun had no choice but to open the door, but stepped inside first, acting as a guard.

Watching Jia Qing enter the room, several other Ningguo Mansion guards also hurried in, making the room that was not bright enough to begin with suddenly darkened.
