Chapter 512 Uninvited Entry
The more they thought about it, the more uneasy they felt, so they quickly split up and went looking for someone.
Liao Jiu went to the street outside the clinic to look for her, fearing she might have wandered off to the street. The street sold all kinds of food, fun things, and was bustling with activity. This little girl loved the hustle and bustle, and if anything was amiss, he'd be able to find some clues...
Jiang Lianzhu went into the backyard to look for it.
The clinic is at the back door of Prince Xiang's Mansion. It used to be the home of Prince Xiang's wife. It has a shop and a main house. The front door and the back door are equidistant from Shangzhuyuan where Jiang Lianzhu and the others live.
"Nanbao!! Xueda!! Xueer!! Xuesan!! Where did you go to play?"
I called several times, but there was no response.
Prince Xiang’s mansion was large, but there were few servants, and no one came out to respond.
Jiang Lianzhu could only whistle to summon the wind.
Soon, Jifeng flew up lazily, looking unhappy. He was sleeping right now, so why summon him? It didn't look like anything was wrong.
Jiang Lianzhu asked, "Why? Can't I summon you even if I'm fine? You just eat and sleep all day long. How can you be okay without some exercise? Nanbao is missing, and where are the three snow wolves? Help me find them."
Ji Feng's relaxed attitude made Jiang Lianzhu feel a lot more at ease.
There are no bad guys coming to the house, otherwise, Jifeng and the others would be able to sense it.
Jifeng flapped his wings and took off into the air.
He slapped Jiang Lianzhu in the face!
Jiang Lianzhu was about to teach it a lesson when she felt the message and direction it sent.
Found Nanbao and the others.
Jifeng flapped its wings and pointed in a direction. Jiang Lianzhu came to a corner of the garden and lifted the weeds, revealing a big dog hole.
Jiang Lianzhu...
I finally understand.
Nanbao took Xue San and the others to crawl out of the dog hole to play at the neighbor's house next door. They should be fine as there was no warning of the strong wind.
This area is inhabited by all kinds of powerful and wealthy people. Jiang Lianzhu has lived here for so long that she probably knows all the neighbors around her, but they don't interact much.
The direction this dog hole leads to seems to be the residence of a retired third-rank official.
It is said that this third-rank official moved back to his hometown with his family. Currently, a relative lives in this house, and it is not known what the relative does.
It doesn't seem right to go into someone else's backyard without permission.
Jiang Lianzhu was also afraid that her daughter would get into trouble in someone else's home, or something like that.
After some thought, she also crawled through the dog hole.
The grass was deep and the creases were recently made. Presumably, apart from Nanbao, no one had passed by here before, so it was considered a safe hole.
After entering the dog hole, there is a large garden with beautiful scenery. There are rockery and flowing water, scattered in an orderly manner, and towering ancient trees, which are lush and rare.
Pavilions, towers and deep flower gardens.
This is a well-maintained garden.
Unlike the Prince Xiang’s Mansion, which was only recently occupied and maintained, it cannot compare to this place.
Jiang Lianzhu didn't meet anyone along the way, so she continued walking forward.
After walking past the rockery group, the front is much wider and there is a large pond with clear blue water. The pond is full of lotus flowers, and a large water pavilion is built above the lotus flowers.
The other half is connected to the rockery and running water, the water surface is clean and sparkling.
On the bank of the water, an old man in plain clothes was fishing...
Nanbao and the three snow wolves were lying on the side, watching the old man fishing with great interest.
From time to time, he would raise his round little head and talk to the old man, asking questions here and there. The old man would lower his head with a smile on his face, as if he would answer every question.
Jiang Lianzhu felt relieved.
The three snow wolves spotted Jiang Lianzhu from afar. They immediately got up from the ground and ran towards Jiang Lianzhu happily to greet her.
“Ahhh!!”
Nanbao also looked over and said happily, "Mom!!"
The old man in plain clothes also looked over.
Jiang Lianzhu walked over quickly and glared at Nanbao. Nanbao immediately realized her mistake, stuck out her tongue and smiled.
"I'm sorry, I'm Jiang Lianzhu from the Xiangwang Mansion next door. My child disturbed you. I wasn't paying attention, and unexpectedly, she brought our pets through the wall. I hope she didn't disturb the old man's peace and quiet." Jiang Lianzhu said politely to the old man.
Looking closely, the old man was dressed very simply, in coarse cloth, and his fishing rod was homemade, made of simple bamboo.
Looking at the old man again, his hair was gray, even his eyebrows and beard were white, there were age spots on his face, and deep wrinkles. He was estimated to be over sixty or seventy years old. He was thin and did not look very energetic, but his back was straight, and there were thick calluses on his hands. It seemed that he knew some kung fu.
The old man in plain clothes was originally smiling when he was talking to Nanbao, but when he saw Jiang Lianzhu appear, his expression turned cold.
"No, I'm an old man fishing alone and I'm very bored. It's quite fun for this little girl to talk to me."
Nanbao suddenly became very proud and said, "Mom, I told Grandpa that we are neighbors next door. Didn't the teacher teach us that we should be friendly to our neighbors? I am learning to fish with Grandpa. Fishing is fun. We just caught several small fish! Come and see, there is still one that Xue San has eaten!"
Jiang Lianzhu...this little guy!
There is no one she is not familiar with!
"Crossing a dog hole to enter someone's home is called entering without an invitation. Did your teacher teach you how to enter someone's home without an invitation? Hmm?"
The baby girl is wilted.
"That's not the case..."
The old man in plain clothes laughed, "We are all casual people. It's okay. I won't mind. You can still go through the dog hole next time. I allow you. It's not called uninvited entry."
Nanbao smiled happily again, "Mother, you heard it, Grandpa allowed me. Hehe, Grandpa, you are so nice, I like to be good friends with people like you! My two little maids are boring, they dare not look up when I talk to them, I don't like playing with them, and those young ladies in the academy are not good either, they speak unpleasantly, and they are also squeamish, they fall down when pushed, and they like to cry. Our teacher looks like you, with a white beard, but he is not good either, he doesn't believe me, he just lets me go home and reflect on my mistakes, hum..."
She opened her little mouth and started blabbering, unable to stop.
Jiang Lianzhu held her forehead with her hand.
So, you are just a little kid with three wolves, wandering around everywhere, right?
The old man in plain clothes listened with great interest and agreed with her, "They are indeed not capable. However, with your tiny size, can you really push others down?"
Nanbao became excited and rolled up her sleeves, revealing her round little arms that looked like lotus roots.
"Grandpa, don't underestimate our daughter. She learns Kung Fu from her parents every day. Come, let me show you my boxing skills. My mother taught me Taekwondo. Watch me! Whoosh whoosh..."
