Chapter 754 What happened?
Gu Xiaoxi was very surprised, "Do you know him?"
Lu Jiansen nodded, "Yes. Wangyue Lane is only called Wangxiang because there is a very beautiful and luxurious courtyard here, and there is also a Moon-Wang Pavilion in it. It is said that it used to be beautiful and very gorgeous. This alley is famous for the Moon-Wang Pavilion. It is said that this was once the property of a big family, but the family was ruined because of the war. The house was later empty..."
"It is said that later, the government requisitioned this house and distributed the houses to other people to live in. But the people who moved into this house were all haunted by the ghosts in the courtyard. After a long time, the house became deserted..."
While explaining to Xiaoxi, Lu Jiansen took her into the innermost part of Wangyue Lane.
At the end of the seemingly narrow alley, there appeared a house with a very grand and imposing gate.
Lu Jiansen took the key from Xiaoxi's hand, walked forward, and actually opened the big brass lock on the door.
Pushing open the dusty door, what came into view was a somewhat dilapidated courtyard house.
Because no one lives there and no one maintains it, it is overgrown with weeds.
Gu Xiaoxi took a deep breath, walked into the room and looked around.
Lu Jiansen closed the door, took out an engineering robot, and asked it to clean up the weeds and garbage in the courtyard.
"Lu Jiansen, do you think this house was also left to us by Gu Zesheng?" Gu Xiaoxi was a little unsure.
"Let's go in and take a look." Lu Jiansen thought that since Gu Xiaoxi had someone give the key to Xiaoxi, there must be something left inside!
Gu Xiaoxi nodded, and went to the main house of the courtyard with Lu Jiansen first.
They originally thought that since this house was so desolate, it must be desolate inside as well.
But the fact is that although the main house was not locked, there was a row of yellow talismans pasted on the door.
To outsiders, this scene looked sinister, but when Gu Xiaoxi waved his hand, the door of the main house was pushed open.
The scene they saw also shocked Gu Xiaoxi and Lu Jiansen.
Because the main house is not desolate at all. It not only contains simple and elegant furniture, but also many daily necessities.
For example, there are teapots, teacups, cattail-leaf fans, newspapers, etc. on the chairs.
What surprised Gu Xiaoxi the most was that there was no dust in the room, which showed that someone had cleaned it recently.
After observing the room for a while, Gu Xiaoxi soon saw a special object in an old photo frame next to the coffee table.
What was inside was not a photo, but a title deed.
Looking more closely at the text on the deed, I discovered that this deed was exactly the deed for this courtyard house.
When Gu Xiaoxi took down the photo frame, opened the doors, and took out the title deed, he found a small black-and-white photo on the back of the frame.
The person in the photo was none other than his own grandmother, Xu Yuqiu.
Gu Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment, and immediately handed the photo to Lu Jiansen.
"The person in this photo is actually my grandma!"
Lu Jiansen took a look at the photo and suddenly understood something.
"It seems that this house may belong to the Xu family, that is, your grandmother. The family that was rumored to have been destroyed in the war may be your grandmother's family."
Gu Xiaoxi took a deep breath and immediately ran to the bedroom in the house.
In the main house, the living room had been cleaned, but the master bedroom was empty.
So Gu Xiaoxi and Lu Jiansen went to other rooms.
Finally, they came upon a room in the west wing that had been furnished, had obviously been cleaned, was furnished, and was in good repair.
This room is also decorated in the antique style of a young lady's chamber, with some old items and even a dressing mirror.
Apart from that, Gu Xiaoxi didn't find anything here.
But she had a special feeling at this moment. She felt that her grandmother must have lived in this room when she was alive.
She felt that Gu Zesheng probably wanted her to leave this house to her father and aunt!
Dad and aunt should really come here and take a look.
She then checked the house again inside and outside, but found nothing else.
Because it was almost noon, Gu Xiaoxi and Lu Jiansen stayed here and took some food out of the space to have dinner.
During the meal, Gu Xiaoxi asked Lu Jiansen, "Why did Gu Zesheng put the three addresses in the grave at this time for me to find? Do you think he did it on purpose?"
She now wondered whether Gu Zesheng had already anticipated that she would find the piece of paper and find the three different addresses.
Lu Jiansen was silent for a while before he said, "He put the paper next to the grave without specifying a name. It's possible that he wanted to tell you later. If he wanted to tell you now, he could have just handed the paper to you when you met him."
"Really? You think he didn't mean it?" Gu Xiaoxi always felt like he had overlooked something.
Is there something she hasn't discovered?
"Okay, don't think too much. Things will work out when the time comes. Based on the current developments, Gu Zesheng should not be a threat to you. That's all that matters."
"Then, what about Yan Nansheng? The old lady from the Xie family hasn't been found yet, and now another one is missing. Don't you think it's annoying that these people are missing?"
Lu Jiansen smiled and rubbed her head. "Don't worry. There is a solution to everything. Since Gu Zesheng has appeared, and he also said that he wants to settle accounts with those who harmed your grandmother, then the missing old lady of the Xie family will probably show up soon. All we can do now is wait."
Gu Xiaoxi thought about it and then nodded.
"Well. Then wait!"
After the two men finished their meal, they locked the door of the house again, left Kyoto quietly, and returned to Xining Military Academy.
…
For the next period of time, Gu Xiaoxi really taught seriously in the military academy, occasionally went to the infirmary to work, and waited patiently.
On June 15th, Gu Xiaoxi received a call from Xie Ru.
After the call was connected, Gu Xiaoxi just answered "Hello" and Xie Ru started crying loudly.
Gu Xiaoxi asked her in confusion: "Don't cry, what happened?"
Xie Ru was still crying on the other end of the phone, gasping for breath.
Gu Xiaoxi was a little annoyed and shouted, "Are you calling me just to cry to me? There's no charge for this, right? If you have something to say, just say it. Don't waste your time."
Seeing her fierceness, Xie Ru sniffed and stopped crying.
But she still cried when she spoke the next words.
"Little Creek, Little Creek, Little Creek, my mother is dead, my mother is dead... I have no mother anymore..."
Gu Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment, "What's going on?"
