Since Xie Yunhe had given the order, Manager Pang had no choice but to accept his fate and prepare accommodation for the two.
But the master didn't specify where they should live. If it is up to him to decide, don't expect him to arrange a good place for them.
He took the two of them to the most remote courtyard in the mansion - Xifeng Courtyard.
Mei Ji frowned in disdain: "Are you looking for a fight?"
Manager Pang laughed and said, "The master has not acknowledged your identities. When the truth is revealed, you will be kicked out! Living here is a bargain for you!"
There was a murderous look in Meiji's eyes.
"Meiji." Su Xiaoxiao called her.
Mei Ji snorted coldly and walked into the yard without looking back.
Manager Pang looked at her back and frowned in confusion.
Was that just an illusion?
The back of my head suddenly felt cold.
Manager Pang brought the person here and left without even giving her a maid.
Meiji looked at the yard full of fallen leaves, feeling torn as to where to start: "Meiji has never lived in such a bad yard!"
Thinking of something, he added, "After I leave the island with my husband."
Her and the killer's life on the island was very hard.
After the gentleman rescued them, he never let them suffer a single day.
Su Xiaoxiao entered the main room, wiped her fingertips on the table, looked at her clean fingertips, and said to Mei Ji, "It's quite clean in there, come in."
The Cheng family is wealthy and their servants are diligent, so there should be people coming here to clean up often. As for the fallen leaves outside, they may not have been cleaned up today.
Su Xiaoxiao guessed it right. Less than a quarter of an hour later, a maid came to clean the yard.
When the maid saw the strange girl who suddenly appeared, she was stunned for a moment and ran out.
Probably went to ask someone about the situation.
After coming back, the maid didn't say a word and started sweeping the yard silently.
The two sat down in the main room.
Meiji thought of Manager Pang and snorted coldly, "You look down on others. You don't even have a maid to serve you."
Su Xiaoxiao poured a cup of tea from the table and smelled it. There was nothing unusual. "It's good that no one comes. It's quiet and convenient."
"That's right." Meiji lay down on the rattan chair beside her and said while shaking it, "Anyway, our purpose is to collect herbs and find someone."
No matter how bad the Cheng family is, their relationship with the Holy Maiden Palace is not fake.
Once we get the herbs from the Holy Maiden Temple, sir will be saved.
Thinking of this, Mei Ji suddenly felt that this yard was not so shabby after all.
Meiji was happy, but someone was unhappy.
"What did you say? My father didn't kick them out? He kept them here?"
After hearing the maid's report, the girl widened her eyes in disbelief, "How could this be?"
The maid was afraid that her master would get angry, so she said tremblingly: "The master said... to investigate the identity of that woman."
The girl said angrily, "What is there to check? My aunt gave birth to a stillborn baby, how could it survive? What a coincidence that the whole family was infected with the plague and died, leaving only a teenage girl? If it was a plague, why did she survive?"
The maidservant said awkwardly: "This...I don't know either."
How can servants guess what the master is thinking?
Cheng Lian looked calm and said in a normal tone, "Okay, your father must have his reasons for doing this."
The girl asked dissatisfiedly: "What's the reason?"
Cheng Lian smiled and said to her daughter, "I guess your father doesn't want them to talk nonsense outside. It would be fine in the past, but now that the Holy Maiden Palace's Holy Selection is imminent, so many eyes are staring at our Cheng family. It's better not to give them a handle at this critical juncture."
The girl stamped her feet and muttered, "Mom always speaks for Dad!"
Cheng Lian glared at her daughter and said with a smile, "If I don't side with your father, then why should I side with a rascal like you? You and your sister were both born from my belly, but your temperaments are so different!"
The girl said depressedly: "I don't care, I'm going to find my father and ask him to kick out that girl pretending to be a member of the Cheng family!"
She left angrily.
Cheng Lian just lowered her eyes and took a sip of tea slowly.
…
On the other side, Yuchi Xiu, who had entered the royal capital at full speed earlier, found Gui Bu and Wei Liulang through the secret code left by his own people.
When Wei Ting was still at the border, he had already sent a secret guard to contact the two and inform them of the whereabouts of the snake bone flower.
The two did not expect that someone else would come, and it was Yuchi Xiu.
"Yuchi Xiu, why did you come to Southern Xinjiang?" Wei Liulang asked in surprise.
Yuchi Xiu said, "Not only am I here, everyone is here! I probably entered the city a day earlier than them, and it just so happened that I spent a day looking for you. Calculating the time, the adults should have entered the capital as well."
Wei Ting came in from the north gate and left secret codes along the way.
The three of them turned back to the north gate and followed the secret code to find the residence of Wei Ting and his group.
As soon as he entered the yard, Wei Liulang saw three little ones holding brushes, dipping them in water and scribbling on the ground.
His heart was filled with excitement: "Big Tiger, Second Tiger, Little Tiger!"
The three of them turned their heads, threw down their pens, and rushed towards him.
"Sixth Uncle Daddy!"
The three of them should be called Sixth Uncle.
But before they recognized each other, they followed Wei Xiyue and called him Sixth Uncle. After they got used to it, Wei Liulang called them Dad for one day. From then on, Sixth Uncle Daddy became the exclusive name for Wei Liulang used by the three of them.
Wei Liulang knelt on one knee, his arms filled with the three little ones. His heart was filled with speechless emotions.
"Sixth Uncle, you're holding Xiao Axe so tightly that it hurts."
Caught between his two brothers, the little tiger could only move his eyeballs.
Wei Liulang hurriedly let go of the three little guys. They had been separated for too long and he missed them too much. He couldn't hug them enough or look at them enough.
"Let Uncle Six see if you have grown taller?"
"Da Hu has grown taller."
"Erhu has grown taller too."
Xiaohu stood on tiptoes, trying to outdo his two brothers: "Xiaofu is the tallest!"
Wei Liulang laughed, "Why do you still have that accent?" The three of them jumped around happily in Wei Liulang's arms, shouting in their little voices.
Wei Liulang didn't mind the noise, he shouted along with them.
Gui Bu tiptoed past the three little brats.
He successfully dodged three little stinkers.
When he entered the main room, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He planned to go to the back to find Wei Qing and Wei Ting.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped over the back threshold of the main room, he saw a pretty little girl dressed in southern Xinjiang style squatting on the ground cracking walnuts.
We had eaten all the pine nuts on the way, leaving only the walnuts.
Wei Xiyue wants to feed Xiaobai with walnuts.
When Gui Bu saw Wei Xiyue, he felt sick all over!
Yuchi Xiu only said that the child was here, but he didn't say that the girl was here too!
The fear of being dominated by carrots surged up.
The ghost-like tiger trembled and ran away.
Wei Xiyue turned her head and said to the inside of the house: "Dad, uncle ran away."
Gui Bu: You still complain!!!
Four little ones: I want votes!
The final countdown for the double monthly tickets for Qyue and Qidian is here. Those who have monthly tickets should hurry up and vote.
