Chapter 258: So Thoughtful
Qing Shi saw that everyone was so dull and a little bored, so he said: "Peony girl, if you leave Tianxiang Building in the future, do you want to change your name, we always call you like this, I am worried that you will remember the unpleasant memories in Tianxiang Building in the future." ”
Qingshi is still quite worried about Peony's next mood, she is not an optimistic person, in case she comes out and is depressed, when it happens, they can't afford it.
Peony was stunned, even he had never thought about this problem, he was so considerate when he was young, and even he thought of this, if he was still called Peony in the future, I am afraid that he would not be able to start a new life.
Peony raised his eyes, looked at Chen Ning intently, and then asked softly, "I wonder if Chen Gongzi can give Peony a name?" ”
Chen Ning trembled, Peony actually asked him to name her, he hurriedly shook his head and said: "My literary style is not good, in my opinion, you should not count on me, otherwise you will be given a crooked name of melon and cracked date, and you will not hate me to death in the rest of your life." ”
In Peony's heart, as long as it is the name chosen by Chen Ning, whether it is a cat or a dog, she doesn't mind, but Chen Ning shouldn't have been able to understand this.
After hearing Chen Ning's answer, Peony couldn't help but reveal a look of loss, slowly lowered his eyes, and said with a hint of sadness: "Actually, before entering the Qinglou, I had a name, called Hedge. ”
Chen Ning was slightly stunned, the name hedge is very beautiful, but it doesn't seem to match the dust breath on the peony, but she didn't say anything, she just tasted the name herself.
Chen Ning is a writer, and naturally has a lot of ideas about creating names, for her, the more complex the name, the better, everyone's name must correspond to her personality and temperament, so for the name, Chen Ning is still quite strict.
Qing Shi said with a fresh look: "Hedge and Qing Shi, the names of the two of us are like, and I will call you Sister Hedge in the future." ”
Qingshi clapped his hands happily, for himself, Chen Ning is everything, and now, there is another friend by his side, which is naturally good.
Chen Feng sat outside the carriage, listening to the conversation inside, with a smile in his eyes, not knowing how Chen Ning should end up in the future.
When night fell, the West Street was not lively, and the night market was mostly on the East Street, so their carriage was unimpeded, Chen Feng waved the long whip in his hand, and then drove the horses to gallop continuously.
If others saw the scene at this time, they would definitely feel incredible, because they were reluctant to let the fire unicorn pull the carriage, so they called another horse, and the fire unicorn galloped in front of the carriage, but it was not the fire unicorn that pulled the carriage.
Chen Feng suddenly shouted, and the fire qilin slowly stopped his pace, and the carriage slowly lowered its speed, and then stopped at the edge of a mansion.
Because of Chen Feng's professional factors, he was already very sensitive to all information, so he captured a piece of information in time.
Chen Ning was shocked, could it be that he had just walked out of Tianxiang Building, and his old mother was already in peace? If they are all solved, the old mother can naturally take the homeless peony back.
Chen Ning subconsciously protected Qingshi and Peony behind him, and then said, "Be careful, don't come out, I'll go out and have a look first." ”
After that, Chen Ning lifted the curtain, looked outside, and couldn't help but gasp, there were only pedestrians in this place, and in front of it was a mansion with a small area, and there were two lanterns hanging at the door of the house.
She hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Stopped at this place? ”
Chen Ning was very puzzled, he thought that someone was blocking their way, but now it seems that this is not the case, it should be Chen Feng who subjectively stopped his steps.
"Look, what's on the door of this house?"
Chen Feng had already jumped out of the carriage, with a hint of interest in his eyes, there was a green sign hanging at the door of the house, Chen Ning remembered that in this world, if there was a green sign hanging at the door, it would mean that this house was about to be sold.
Chen Ning's whole body was already covered with pimples, his courage was not big, if he wanted to live in the murderous mansion, he was afraid that he would not be at peace.
"You don't want us to stay in this place tonight, do you? It's better to go to the suburbs and sleep for the night, but no, I'll sleep in this carriage, and you must not let me live in such a horrible place. ”
Chen Ning was almost saying in a pleading tone, Chen Ning had always stayed away from this kind of ghost and god talk.
"Look at the other side, if there is a person lying down and sleeping, and then look at the other side, is there someone secretly observing this mansion, I think this mansion should not be as simple as a murderous mansion, right?"
Chen Feng made his own judgment, and his intuition has always been very keen.
Chen Ning also found out what Chen Feng said, and then jumped out of the carriage, although Chen Ning has always been respectful of this kind of thing, but whenever her curiosity is in trouble, it is difficult for anything to hinder it.
Peony and Qingshi also walked down from the carriage, looking at this place, Peony couldn't help frowning and said: "I seem to have heard that this murderous house at the entrance of Xijiekou seems to be a scholar who inherited the family business, and a person guards such a big house, and then someone fell in love with this house, and I don't know how, the two sides didn't seem to have negotiated, and finally the scholar disappeared mysteriously, because this house was originally issued by the court when the scholar's grandfather was an official, and now, without an owner, the court will auction this house, It's just that so far, only the people who originally snatched this house with the scholar were willing to buy it, and they bid for a thousand spirit stones. ”
Chen Ning looked at this house, and he was a little interested in it, and he couldn't avoid it just now, but now, he was curious to go in and take a look.
The keeper at the door saw that someone was looking at the house, and followed in a panic, and then stood in front of them, and said hesitantly, "Don't listen to people's nonsense, this is not a murderous house...... If only you could buy this house, it wouldn't be cheaper for those bastards. ”
The man at the door was gray-haired, about seventy years old, hunched over, talking, and coughing from time to time, but when he spoke of the house, the man was still very excited, and even threw the cane in his hand on the ground.
Chen Ning and the others couldn't help asking: "Old man, you don't have to be excited, you have something to say and speak slowly." ”
"Actually, I used to be the housekeeper in this house, but because the old lady declined, he sent us all away, who would have thought that the bully actually had an idea about this house, and tried every possible way to get rid of the childe, and when I knew this time, it was too late, the son was nowhere to be found, and the house would also be auctioned, and tomorrow would be the day of the transaction, if no one had bid, I was afraid that this house would belong to those bullies."
The old man knocked his cane on the ground, and then said angrily: "So I want others to buy this house, even if the son is no longer there, I can't let those people succeed!" ”
