Ye Ming brought the old man to a room, looked at him coldly, and said in a bad tone, "This is the guest room in our house, you can stay here."
The old man held up the lamp, looked into the house, and nodded, "This house is nice."
Ye Ming rolled his eyes and didn't want to pay any attention to him. He snorted coldly and turned around to leave.
The old man was not annoyed. He walked into the house, took off his shoes, undressed and lay down. He murmured, "The roasted pigeon tastes really good."

Early the next morning, before the rooster in the yard woke up, the old man happily wandered around the Hou Mansion.
Zeng Tianya was squatting in the vegetable garden watering the water, and Yun Heng was standing by the well carrying a bucket.
The old man suddenly appeared, startling the two of them.
"This vegetable is growing really well and is lush and green."
"This fruit looks good, can I eat it?"
"This water needs to be boiled before you can drink it. I happen to be thirsty. Go and get me a cup of tea."
"This chicken looks really strong. I killed it quickly while it was still early for lunch."
The old man put his hands behind his back and walked slowly on the path, pointing at one thing after another, as if he was ordering food in a restaurant with ease.
Zeng Tianya and Yun Heng didn't know what happened last night, let alone who he was. They looked at each other and clearly saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
Seeing this strange old man eyeing the chickens he had raised since childhood, Zeng Tianya's face darkened, he threw the water ladle into the bucket and said loudly, "Who are you?"
The old man seemed not to notice the malice in him and grinned, "Of course I am from this mansion."
"Are you from our house?" Yun Heng looked at him, his eyes full of suspicion, "Except for Uncle Wang who pours swill in the outer courtyard, there are no people as old as you in our house."
"Who are you?" Zeng Tianya instantly became alert, his fingertips touched the short blade on his waist, and whispered, "Tell me! How did you get into our house?"
"I came last night, and your wife personally asked me to stay." The old man responded in a deep voice with a smile on his face.
With that playful smile on his face, it was obvious that he didn't take them seriously.
Ye Ming heard the noise and hurried to the backyard. Seeing the stalemate between the three of them, he immediately darkened his face and said, "What are you doing standing around here? You have no work at hand, right?"
Zeng Tianya curled his lips, pointed at the old man and shouted, "Who is this man? He came to the backyard early in the morning and pointed fingers, and he even wanted to eat a handful of my shit and piss to make him rich!"
Ye Ming was stunned when he heard this, and glanced at the rooster named Facai not far away, with a sullen look on his face. He turned to look at the old man, frowning even more tightly, "It's so good, why are you staring at that chicken?"
The old man was not convinced. He raised his chin and looked at him through his nostrils, "You were also there last night, so you naturally heard your wife's words. She invited me to dinner, but she took the initiative. Since she invited me, it's up to me to decide what to eat."
"Our wife is beautiful and kind-hearted, but she is just being polite to you." Ye Ming looked confused and gave him a sharp look, "Besides, what are you sure about? He became rich because he was raised as a father and mother since he was a child. Yes, if you eat it and someone comes to fight for you, I can't stop you."
The old man looked at the rooster huddled in the nest, then glanced at Zeng Tianya, snorted coldly, raised his feet and went elsewhere.
"Who is this old man!" Zeng Tianya was puzzled and pointed at his back and asked, "What ability does he have that makes him worthy of being treated to a meal by the lady herself?"
Ye Ming shook his head, with a helpless look on his face, "Master's thoughts are open to speculation and we can't figure it out." "You're a big goose that's too fat. It's best to stew it in an iron pot."
The old man's angry laughter could be heard in the distance again. Ye Ming's expression turned grim, and he secretly thought something was wrong, so he ran away to save Brother Goose.
Chengyuan
Su Zi stood beside the bed, serving Fang Xu to wash his face, with a serious look on his face, "Madam... I have something I want to tell you..."
Fang Xu took the handkerchief from her hand, wiped the water droplets from his face, and said softly, "Just say what you have to say."
Su Zi was worried again and again, but he still asked, "Yesterday, the old man was very skilled. Bai Ji and Ye Ming combined were no match for him. Is it really okay to leave such a person in the house overnight?"
Fang Xu sat up straight, threw the handkerchief into the basin, and said calmly, "Last night, I saw the jade pendant tied around his waist. Look at the color, it is definitely not an ordinary jade commonly seen in the market."
Su Zi reacted instantly and asked in a low voice, "Madam, do you think that old man has a good status?"
Fang Xu nodded, "The timing is very coincidental. I thought he was Prince Rong, but looking at his temperament, it doesn't look like him."
Su Zi blinked his eyes and said speechlessly, "Madam, Prince Rong has never tasted any delicacies from the mountains and seas. How could he break into other people's mansions alone in the middle of the night just for the sake of mere appetite? Although he is not a serious royal relative, he is still a prince. ah!"
"The blame lies here." Fang Xu frowned and twitched the corner of his mouth, "With such high martial arts skills, he must not be an ordinary person, but if he is a noble person, how could he do these things?"
Just when the master and servant were confused, Bai Ji opened the door curtain and squeezed in. With the slightest air-conditioning, he called in a low voice, "Madam."
"What are you doing so early in the morning?" Fang Xu sat in front of the bronze mirror and looked back at her with a smile in his eyes.
Bai Ji grinned and brought the early morning gossip, "The old man left yesterday was very annoying. He either wanted to eat Zeng Tianya's chicken or the goose sent by Master Shen. The backyard was noisy and noisy. Zeng Tianya was so angry that he almost started fighting with him, so I went to take a look."
When the word Master Shen was mentioned suddenly, Fang Xu was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly thought that he and he had not seen each other for a long time.
Seeing that Madam was absent-minded, Bai Ji looked confused and spoke quickly, "Madam, do you miss Master Shen?"
Su Zi coughed suddenly and stabbed her in the eyes.
Bai Ji also realized that he had said the wrong thing and tightened his pink lips, not daring to speak any more.
"I quite want to."
Fang Xu's words fell in the room, causing the two little girls to widen their eyes in shock.
The instigator didn't take it seriously. He looked up at Bai Ji and asked softly, "Do you have any news about him?"
Hearing his wife talking to him, Bai Ji came to his senses and responded hurriedly, "The informant came to report two days ago, saying that Mr. Shen arrived in Zhuo County to inspect the disaster situation and accidentally encountered a refugee riot. He wrote to the Emperor , even though he was the local county magistrate, he also dug out a lot of money from the corrupt official."
"Now the disaster situation in Zhuo County has been temporarily taken over by Lord Shen, and he has performed well. Changfan heard the prince mention it, saying that the emperor praised Lord Shen for half an hour." Baiji's eyes turned into crescent moons, and he said crisply, "Your Majesty He also said that when Mr. Shen returns to Beijing, his promotion is 80% certain!"
Hearing this, Fang Xu raised the corners of his lips imperceptibly, and said softly, "This is the best." (End of Chapter)
