Lucky not to forget

Chapter 64 Liu's Mansion
Wu Wang raised the curtains and called Second Brother, Shen Xing came back to his senses, whipped him up and rushed up, Wu Wang said, "Now that we're out, let's go around the old house and have a look."
Shen Xing thought for a while and said, "I only took the deed, but I forgot to take the key of the house. You go to the teahouse to warm up for a while. I will ask Uncle Six to get the key." Dali Temple ran away.
Lu Zhiyao sat in front of the case and put in the files, looked up and saw Shen Xing came back, couldn't help but look behind him, saw him alone, and wondered, "But what happened?"
Shen Xing's complexion was not very good, he sat in the Nanguan's hat chair, and asked awkwardly after a long while, "Why hasn't Sixth Uncle married yet?"
Lu Zhiyao was surprised when he heard this, "Dare you come back just to ask me this? You and I are about the same age, and you are not married, how can you ask me?"
Shen Xing watched the dragging of his normal clothes, only to feel a breath in his chest, and he couldn't spit it out.Did you tell him that I have been waiting for Jun Chun, and finally got her back, but you easily snatched her away?How embarrassing is this for myself!
Naxiang Lu Zhiyao said with a smile, "You boy, have you moved your heart? Are you interested in talking to me about marriage today?" He was very interested in this topic, so he hurriedly dropped what he was doing and came to Shen Sitting down next to him, he leaned forward and said, "Your mother didn't like the daughter of Wang Bao's family last time. Shen Du is going to get married next year. Is the family pressing?"
Shen Xing said in a muffled voice, "It's nothing, I just want to ask how you escaped the forced marriage at home."
Lu Zhiyao sneered and said, "My third brother just needs to spread his branches and leaves. I have nothing to worry about! I haven't met a good one, and it's not peaceful all day long when I get married. I can just hang out outside and not go back. Afraid of suffering my mother, I was ashamed to please and act like a baby in front of my mother. She felt sorry for me, so she didn't force me later. She only said that although it is important for a man to start a family, he can't miss it. Let me take it easy If you want to delay it for a year or two, it is absolutely impossible." Then he said, "You came back so soon, did you leave her on the way? When do you want to talk? How can you not send her to the garden! "
He opened his mouth and kept saying "she, she", Shen Xing was cold from the top of his head to his ankles, he had only seen him show courteousness in front of girls before, and he would usually be thrown to Java as soon as he turned around, now that he is so considerate and serious, the more After thinking about it more and more, she realized that this was true, paused for a while, and said in a daze, "She was waiting at Yunlai Teahouse, and wanted to go back to Liu's Mansion to have a look, but she didn't have the key to the house, and I came to get it."
Lu Zhiyao patted his head and said, "I forgot, wait a minute." As he spoke, he plunged into the drawer of the big cabinet at the back, and there was the sound of keys being flipped around, and he took out the key after a while. Two big skewers, weighing five or six catties, put them on the table and said, "The ones on Zhaizi and Zhuangzi are all here, so go quickly, you don't have to ask people to wait."
Shen Xing said, "I just remembered that the official document from the Inspector's Court has not been sent to the Privy Council. It has been delayed for a long time. I'm afraid I don't have time. You should take a rest now. Just take her to the old house for me. See After that, send her back to the garden."
Lu Zhiyao saw that the work at hand was almost done, and he didn't talk to her during the Mid-Autumn Festival last time, feeling regretful in his heart, Shen Xing undoubtedly agreed immediately to such a proposal.
Shen Xing bowed his hands to let him go, hurried out of Dali Temple, led the horse and walked in the other direction, felt his face was cool while walking, raised his hand to wipe it, only to realize that his face was already full of tears.
Lu Zhiyao is in a hurry to have an appointment with the beautiful woman. Although she is not really waiting for him, she knows that she is at Yunlai Teahouse, and it is too late to change her official uniform. She tells the attendant to take the key and go to the stable and get on the horse. , all the way to the teahouse.
Wuwang and Danxia Qianqiu had already drank two cups of tea, but Shen Xing hadn't been seen yet, and wondered, "Could it be that there are too many keys in the library, and they couldn't find them all at once?"
Qian Qiu said, "Miss sit down for a while, I'll go and see our second master."
Wu Wang waved his hands and said, "Let's wait a little longer, if we encounter something halfway, we have to turn back again, a waste of effort."
After finishing speaking, he saw Lu Zhiyao coming in from the door, but Shen Xing was nowhere to be seen, so he asked, "Uncle Liu, where is my second elder brother?"
Lu Zhiyao said, "He has a temporary business, so he entrusted me to accompany you. Should we leave now, or sit for a while?"
Wuwang panicked and said, "Isn't this delaying your work, turn around and ask your superiors to talk about it."

Lu Zhiyao smiled slightly, handsome, tall and straight, with a sound of gold and stone in his voice, and said slowly, "I'm free now, since he entrusted me, I will definitely send you home so I can feel at ease .”
"Since that's the case, I'll trouble Sixth Uncle." Wu Wang put on his cloak and stood up, followed Danxia to give tea money, went outside the teahouse, saw a big bay red horse on the pillar under the porch, and said to Lu Zhiyao , "Is this the brother Ma who can understand human speech?"
Lu Zhiyao smiled and said, "No! It's called Lu Qing, a thousand-mile horse."
Road light?Do you take his surname Lu?Several people laughed, and Wu Wang said, "Sixth uncle is really open-minded, brother Ma is blessed."
A strange light flashed in Lu Zhiyao's eyes, and he murmured to himself in a low voice, "Naturally, it will have a wonderful use in the future. Even a famous general needs a good horse to gallop thousands of miles."
Don't be surprised, it seems that this person is a man with great ambitions!Famous player?Isn't he a colleague now?There is a huge difference between a piece of paper and a piece of martial arts. If he wants to be a general, he must start a new one!Don't hope that there is any concern in your heart, just pretend that you haven't heard it.Originally, this was just a laugh to others, but for her, because of the example of Pei Zhen before, she couldn't help leaning on it.No matter how well an ambitious person hides his secrets, there will always be times when he shows his feet. Could it be that Lu Zhiyao is another Pei Zhen?When he became suspicious, he paid attention to his every move. This civil servant put on the horse rein like a military general. Sitting in the car, Lu Zhiyao suddenly turned his head, met her eyes, and immediately grinned and raised his eyebrows. The whip went ahead to clear the way.

Seeing that her girl was in a state of despair, Danxia thought she was cold, so she stretched out her hands to fasten the straps of her cloak, and complained, "I don't know why Cuiping doesn't let the girl wear that ermine cloak in such cold weather." , what’s the value of just wearing this cloak!”
Wuwang looked back and said, "I'm not cold, but the hand stove is still warm."
Dan Xia said again, "Sixth Lord is really interesting this way, just now I saw him being serious in the yamen, I thought he had changed his temper."
Wu Wang smiled, noncommittal, and thought to himself that no one is like a puddle of clear water, which can be seen at a glance.Right now, Yingtian is sunny on the surface, but undercurrents are turbulent in private, everyone is looking for a way out, Lu Zhiyao will never be a simple person.
After walking for a few more miles, he was about to leave the city. The Taipu Mansion is located at the root of the northern city, facing south. It is a huge official residence.After passing the dilapidated gatehouse, walk more than ten feet to the main entrance. Don’t wait to get off the station. When you look up, your eyes are full of depression and loneliness. The tiles have fallen and no one has cleaned them. It is full of fallen leaves and waste paper, and there are even beggars' bedding rolled up under the porch, so there is no trace of the grandeur of the past!It's like a dilapidated temple with no pilgrims. The Buddha is gone, and it's unlucky for everyone to pass by the door, so we can only take in the homeless vagrants.
Lu Zhiyao handed the reins to his attendant, raised his hand to peel off the seal on the door, and held the key to open the door, but the lock was rusted to death after a long time, the key was inserted into the lock hole, and the left and right could not be turned. He tried for a long time but couldn't do anything, so he turned around and said, "It can't be opened."
Wu Wang looked at the street, and murmured, "Let's find a locksmith..." Just as he was talking, he heard a click, and the lock handle broke in Lu Zhiyao's hand, and Wu Wang looked at it in surprise. He, such a big black iron lock, the inside is rusted to death, or it can be opened with some oil, no matter how bad it is, it will not break.

Lu Zhiyao didn't take it seriously, clapped his hands and said, "I tugged twice and it fell off."

Several people looked at him with the eyes of a hero, he smiled and pushed open the heavy door, the dust that had accumulated on the lintel for many years fell down in one fell swoop, making him ashamed, he covered his mouth and nose and coughed from choking. Quickly motioning for Danxia to dust off the dust on his head and body, he muttered, "I should send someone to clean it first."
Wu Wang said, "Uncle Liu was wronged, he came back to our house, he ate a stomach full of ashes instead of taking a sip of tea."
Lu Zhiyao smiled and said, "It's okay, just treat me to a good meal in the future as compensation."
The ancestor of the Liu family was from Suzhou, and the mansion was also built in the style of a garden. There were pavilions, pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings. Half of Shuang Pavilion was struck by lightning, and only half of the ruined walls remained. In the garden, the tragic situation of ransacking the house could still be vaguely seen. Tables, chairs and books were thrown everywhere. It has rotted away with the weather.

Wuwang stood in the garden in a daze for a while, as if he saw girls and women coming and going, mother leaned against the door and waited for his father to come down, and the servant on the second door rushed in to report that the master was back, and then the corners of mother's mouth bloomed. The most beautiful flowers, gentle and affectionate, father enters the door and has no time to change the court clothes, first pinch mother's face, hold her in his arms and get close for a while, this kind of fragments are filled in all her memories, like a slap in the face If the nail is pulled out, blood and tears will flow, and the pain will be too painful.Now I'm used to seeing other people's fickleness between husband and wife, but I don't understand the love of my parents. How much affection can be used up in little bits and pieces?The father's love is as deep as the sea, and in exchange for the mother's life and death, she is so determined that she can even leave her daughter behind, as if there is only each other in their marriage and nothing else can be tolerated.
Really hate and pain!Why leave her alone, let her suffer all the hardships in the world, and now she has to return to this sad place to clean up the aftermath!Such a big house, empty, gloomy and terrifying!Without parents, not even a nanny, she really wanted to cry...
Lu Zhiyao looked at her from the side, the expression on her face changed from calm to sad, and now to a busy one, with tears in her eyes, she was about to fall, she looked extremely miserable.He couldn't help but let out a long sigh. After all, she was only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child. No matter how mature she was, there would always be problems that she couldn't solve and times when she was at a loss. Seeing how strong and sensitive she was, she lived in Grandma's house, and she doesn't want to cause trouble to others, who will help her at this time?Lu Zhiyao suddenly felt a sense of justice, since Shen Xing entrusted her to him, then let him handle the next thorny issues!
