Chapter 16: The Occupied House


While the old man, the twenty-sixth housekeeper, was thinking about that extraordinary girl, the girl Qin Zheng was galloping happily with Lu Fang.

Finally, the two people stopped in front of a small town.

The houses in the small town were all blue brick houses, the roads were very neatly built, and neat weeping willows were planted on both sides of the road.

It is now evening, smoke is everywhere, and there are sellers of Sazi steamed buns and osmanthus cakes loudly soliciting business, and there are also the shouts of oil sellers walking in the streets, one after another, it is very lively.

Lu Fang looked back and asked Qin Zheng, "Is this your hometown Shilipu?"

Qin Zheng looked at this strange town: "It looks like it is."

Lu Fang asked again: "Where is your home?"

After walking for so long, he finally arrived at Qin Zheng's home and it was time to rest.

Qin Zheng shook his head: "I don't know either."

Lu Fang was speechless.

At this moment, a girl about ten years old came to them, looked at Lu Fang and Qin Zheng with curious eyes, and asked in a childish voice: "You two are not locals, where are you from?

What are you doing here?"

ah" This little girl is so old that she still has bobs tied up with a red satin cloth.

She wears a small green jacket on the upper body and a green skirt on the lower body.

They are all made of coarse cloth and have been washed a little bit.

At first glance, she is the daughter of an ordinary family. .

Qin Zheng smiled and said: "Little sister, we came from Dayan to go to old Qin's house on Qian Street."

The little girl listened and said enthusiastically: "There is only one family named Qin on the front street here.

Just wait, I will take you there."

Seeing this, Qin Zheng liked this enthusiastic little girl very much and asked: "Little girl, what is your name?"

The little girl tilted her head and smiled: "My name is Bao Gu."

She looked good when she smiled like this.

Qin Zheng smiled and said, "Why don't you get on the horse and let's go there together?"

The little girl Baogu had never ridden a horse before, so when she heard this, she was naturally happy and nodded vigorously.

Qin Zheng immediately reached out to fish it out and lifted her onto the horse: "Let's go."

Bao Gu felt very new about riding a horse now.

She curiously touched the reins and the horse's hair, and looked around happily.

Qin Zheng walked through the streets of Shilipu and saw that although it was just a small town, it was well-equipped with gold shops, silver buildings, medicine shops, books and restaurants, restaurants and teahouses.

I guess it's because it's not far from Phoenix City and there are many merchants traveling from north to south passing through here.

The next group of people were watching and walking, and within a short time, they came to a row of old houses.

I saw that this old house had three large rooms facing the street.

There was a vermilion door next to the three large rooms.

The door looked a little old, and the vermilion paint was starting to be mottled.

Bao Gu pointed to the door and said, "This is Lao Qin's house."

Qin Zheng turned over and dismounted, and then helped the little girl dismount as well.

He walked to the gate and touched the copper ring on the gate.

He saw that the copper ring had been rubbed for who knows how many years.

Bright.

She knelt down again, looked at the two stone pillars next to the gate, and brushed off the dust with her hands.

After the thick dust was gone, a few words were suddenly engraved on the stone pillars: "In the year of Jiahai, a Qin man was born."

Looking at the familiar font, Qin Zheng felt a little sore for a moment.

She stretched out her hand and gently touched the words.

Things have changed, and my father will never come back.

Lu Fang also got off his horse at this time.

Seeing this scene, he knew that he was looking for the right place, but seeing that there seemed to be someone living in this house, he asked the little girl: "Little girl, who lives here?"

Aunt Bao said curiously: "Of course Third Aunt Qin's family lives here.

Is there any problem?"

After hearing this, Lu Fang smiled at Aunt Bao and said, "Who is in Aunt Qin's family?"

Bao Gu thought for a while, clasped her fingers and said, "There is Third Aunt Qin, Third Aunt Qin's eldest son, the eldest daughter-in-law, the second son, the second daughter-in-law, the third son, and the third daughter-in-law."

The little girl continued to count.

Lu Fang looked at the door and wondered if this house had not been used for many years and had been occupied by someone.

Aunt Bao was very smart.

When she saw this scene, she said: "I'll help you to call the door."

After that, she went up to knock on the door and shouted: "Aunt Qin, are you at home?"

Lu Fang looked at Qin Zheng and asked in a low voice: "There are still people in your hometown?"

Qin Zheng stood up and shook his head: "I don't know either."

After a while, the door opened with a heavy and old sound.

A middle-aged woman with a slightly mean face and a bun in a bun opened the door.

She glanced at the little girl and said, "Aunt Bao, what are you doing here?"

Aunt Bao said eloquently: "Aunt Qin, you have guests at home, I brought them here."

"Guest" Aunt Qin didn't understand.

She looked at Qin Zheng and Lu Fang in surprise, but she didn't recognize them.

She lowered her face and said, "Who are you?

What do you want to do with your visit to my house?"

Qin Zheng got off his horse, walked forward and said, "Who are you and why do you live here?"

Third Aunt Qin became more and more surprised.

She looked Qin Zheng up and down and saw that the young man had an indifferent expression and calm eyebrows.

He was clearly unfamiliar, but he seemed to be a little familiar.

After being stunned for a long time, Aunt Qin finally asked: "This is my home, of course I live here, who are you?"

Seeing this, Qin Zheng calmly walked to the horse, took out a casserole from the baggage, and then took out an oilcloth from the casserole.

He opened the oilcloth and found a piece of yellowed paper inside.

She handed the paper to Aunt Qin and said calmly: "This is my house deed.

This house belongs to me."

Aunt Qin's eyes were about to fall off in surprise.

She hurriedly took it and looked at it carefully for a long time, and finally said: "I, I can't read."

The little girl next to her, Baogu, laughed and said sweetly: "Aunt Qin, since you can't read, you should have told me earlier.

Why did you look at it for so long?"

Qin Zheng slowly took back the deed of the house: "This Third Aunt Qin, my father is a Qin man.

This house was originally owned by my father.

Later, my father passed away and passed the house to me."

She looked at Aunt Qin and added: "I forgot to mention, my name is Qin Zheng."

Third Aunt Qin suddenly realized, pointed at Qin Zheng and said: "Oh, it turns out you are my eldest brother's son."

As if she remembered something, she blushed, smiled awkwardly and said, "You've grown so tall."

Qin Zheng smiled: "My friend and I came from a long distance.

If it is convenient, we will go into the house."

As he spoke, he greeted Lu Fang and rode into the house.

When the road was cleared, two horses were riding and they were about to enter the yard.

Seeing this, Aunt Qin hurriedly stopped the two people and said: "Wait a minute, wait a minute."

Qin Zheng raised his eyebrows: "May I ask if you have any other instructions?"

Third Aunt Qin smiled awkwardly and said: "That eldest nephew, I come from your father's distant cousin's family.

In the past, our head of household also called your father eldest brother.

In this case, I will take the liberty to call you eldest nephew."

Seeing this, Qin Zheng saluted and said, "It turns out to be my cousin.

Qin Zheng has met my cousin."

Third Aunt Qin breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Qin Zheng recognizing her, and explained: "Well, it's like this.

After your father left with your mother, we saw that the house was so big, and it didn't matter.

It's a pity to live alone.

I also thought that there should be someone to look after this house, so I just moved in."

I have lived there for so many years.

After hearing this, Qin Zheng saluted again and said, "That's indeed true.

Thanks to my aunt for helping to take care of the house after so many years, Qin Zheng would like to thank me here."

Third Aunt Qin smiled coquettishly and said, "No need to thank you, no need to thank you."

Who knew that Qin Zheng would change the topic: "Now that Qin Zheng is back, he can take care of the house, and he won't bother my aunt anymore.

As for my aunt's kindness in taking care of the house, Qin Zheng will definitely come to the house with gifts to express my gratitude someday."

When Aunt Qin heard this, her expression suddenly changed: "This, this is not necessary, but this" Qin Zheng smiled and called to Lu Fang: "Let's go in."

With that, two people and two horses entered the yard grandly.

Third Aunt Qin wanted to block her, but her outstretched arm was blocked by Qin Zheng and Lu Fang in an invisible way.

There was a lot of excitement here as they were about to enter the house, but on the other side, Aunt Qin's daughter-in-law shouted: "Mom, what's going on?

What's the fuss about?"

As he said this, he saw a young woman walking out of the house. , about 20 years old, wearing a moon-white home-made skirt, chubby, as if he was about to burst the skirt.

The daughter-in-law here saw Qin Zheng and Lu Fang, looked at him suspiciously, and shouted loudly: "Mom, who is this?

Why did you come to our house?"

Third Aunt Qin explained helplessly: "This is your uncle Qin's son, and now he is back."

When the daughter-in-law heard this, she shouted in confusion: "Come back as soon as you come back.

Why did you come to our house?"

Third Aunt Qin smiled awkwardly, not knowing what to say.

Seeing this, Lu Fang looked at Qin Zheng with a smile.

What did he mean to do now?

Qin Zheng stepped forward and said to Third Aunt Qin: "Third Aunt, let's find a room for us to live in first.

We can take care of other things later."

At this moment, we can't chase this family away right away.

We have to give them some time.

Who would have thought that when Aunt Qin heard this, she would become even more embarrassed: "This, this" After hearing this, the wife there looked at Qin Zheng and sneered: "There is no place to live in the house.

It's just a small courtyard with two entrances and two exits.

My mother lives in one room, the eldest family lives in the east wing, and the second child lives in the other room."

Our home is in the west wing, and we now live in the east wing next to the main house.

My sister-in-law lives in the west wing.

There are three rooms in this wing, but now there aren’t even any windows.

It’s freezing cold here. , and there’s no way to live there.”

Qin Zheng frowned and looked at Aunt Qin: "Auntie, where should we live?"

Third Aunt Qin said with a sad face: "Eldest nephew, there is nowhere to stay at this moment, why don't you go to the inn outside and make do with it?"

At this time, the little girl Baogu saw the doorway and said bluntly: "Third aunt, your house clearly belongs to Brother Qin, how come you let him stay in an inn?

What's going on?"

In the midst of this commotion, the cotton curtain of the westernmost building was opened, and a girl in her mid-twenties came out with thick black braids, a rosy face, and pretty eyebrows.

She walked out of the room and saw so many people in the yard, so she looked over curiously.

Who would have thought that with just one glance, I would see the man standing in the yard.

He was so handsome, with his eyebrows raised so stiffly, his eyes so bright, and his nose so tall. , as for the lips, although they are thin, they are also extremely thin and beautiful.

How could this young man in an ordinary town be as noble and handsome as he was?

The girl only glanced at him and was already drunk.

At this moment, Lu Fang also looked over.

Those cold and cold eyes seemed to be electrified.

The little girl was suddenly fascinated.

There was no one else in her eyes, she only looked in Lu Fang's direction dreamily. tgtgd1806102:
