I'm reborn, so it's not too much to kill the one who traveled through the book, right?

Shen Rong ate a piece of watermelon and told Changsheng what she was thinking.

Changsheng looked at the vine branch that was thicker than his arm and thought it was a good idea.

"Tomorrow Wang Qing and I will go out and buy a batch of flower pots and deliver them to the yard in the suburbs. After we get them back, we will go over again and collect all the flower pots."

Shen Rong nodded, the method of achieving immortality was the safest.

The next day, Changsheng went out early in the morning.

After Changsheng left, something happened in the mansion.

Early in the morning, the bricklayers prepared to block up several dog holes in the courtyard walls on the back street and then repair the walls.

But before they reached the dog hole, they saw a man sneaking in from outside and running quickly towards the kitchen in the east.

Several bricklayers immediately shouted for help.

"There's a thief!"

This shout startled everyone in the mansion.

Servants and workers who were moving bricks nearby rushed over to catch the thief.

The already messy yard became even more messy.

Seeing this, the old man ran even faster.

When the servants saw the old man, they ran away without saying a word. Could this not be because they were feeling guilty about doing something bad?

"Chase!" Someone shouted, and a large group of people quickly chased in the direction the old man was running.

The old man looked back and saw so many people chasing him, so he ran faster.

The mansion was in a mess, and everyone was running, stumbling, and even falling.

Of course, this does not include the old man running very fast in front.

The bricklayers originally thought that chasing an old man should be an easy task.

Unexpectedly, a group of people chased from the east to the west, and then from the west to the east, but they failed to catch the person and also alarmed several masters in the mansion.

"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo! Ouch! I can't take it anymore! This old man can run too fast!" The servant stood with his hands on his hips and watched the old man in front of him jumping over a pile of bricks, and couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.

"I don't know where this old man came from! I'm so out of breath!"

"Why does this old man look familiar?" Another servant wiped the sweat from his forehead.

The bricklayers and servants following the old man were talking about it.

Not to mention the servants in the mansion who followed the thief, the bricklayers who were invited back from outside didn't really want to chase after them, but they were working for the couple, and there was a thief in the mansion, so they couldn't just stand by and watch, right?

When the housekeeper heard the news, he thought that a thief had entered the house and was discovered by the servants, so he hurriedly organized everyone to search for the thief. It was not until he heard the servants say that the person who climbed over the wall was an old man that he realized that he seemed to have forgotten something.

Shen Rong listened to the noise outside and asked Chun Xing to see what was happening?

Chun Xing took the order and left Guiyuan, but did not come back for a long time. Shen Rong thought that it should not be a big deal, so she did not care.

It was not until lunch time that Chun Xing returned to Guiyuan with a look of surprise on her face.

"Madam, I'm back."

"What happened? Why did you take so long?" Shen Rong sat at the dining table and picked up a piece of food for each of the two children.

Chun Xing still looked surprised, "Madam, you would never have thought that there would be a thief in our house!"

Shen Rong's hand holding the chopsticks paused.

Chun Xing's words were incoherent, but she understood the word "thief".

"What do you mean?"

Chun Xing told a lot of news that she had heard from her little sisters.

Originally, after Changsheng got into trouble, Guardian Wang interrogated all the servants in the mansion. In addition to catching a few spies from other families, he also caught a strange old man.

The reason why people thought the old man was weird was that he was just an old gardener, but he could afford to drink wine that cost more than his monthly salary. Apart from this, he did not do anything to damage the Pingyang Marquis Mansion.

After locking the man up for a few days, the housekeeper originally planned to release him. However, he became so busy that he forgot there was an old man in the woodshed.

If the old man had just stayed in the woodshed obediently, there would have been nothing wrong.

But unexpectedly, the old man secretly ran out to buy some wine, and then secretly climbed over the wall back to the woodshed.

As a result, when he was crawling through the dog hole this time, he met a bricklayer who was renovating the house, and was immediately exposed by the bricklayer.

Later, the housekeeper caught the man and found out that the dog hole in the back street was dug by this old man, so he wanted to kick him out immediately.

The old man was unwilling to leave like this.

It’s not that Pingyanghou is such a good place.

But he could get monthly wages even if he didn't work in Pingyang Marquis' Mansion, and most importantly, he was free and could go out whenever he wanted. That was why the old man was unwilling to leave.

Finally, when the old man saw that the old lady had made up her mind to let him leave, he kept shouting that the old marquis owed him a favor and promised to let him live out his years in the mansion.

The old lady naturally didn't believe it.

Finally, the old man took out a letter of commitment written by the old man himself.

It turns out that this old man was a master thief. When he was young, he robbed the rich and gave to the poor, offending many dignitaries. Now he is hiding in this inconspicuous marquis's mansion and has only had a few years of peaceful life.

The old lady felt more convinced when she saw the personal seal on it.

Of course, only a few people in the old lady's yard knew about this.

After listening to Chun Xing's story, Shen Rong couldn't help but ask, "Did the old man tell me what his famous skill is?"

Chun Xing thought for a moment and said, "Empty hands, yes, empty hands, that's what Aunt Hua said."

Shen Rong was stunned. Could it be really what she thought?

At this time, Chun Xing said hesitantly, "Madam, if that old man has no money to spend, will he steal from our house?"

Shen Rong thought to herself: If he is really the master of her sister-in-law's cousin, with his ability, those few people in their house may not even look up to him.

Not only Chun Xing had such doubts, even Aunt Hua was a little worried.

Just now, the old lady didn't believe that the old man was a thief. She only saw the old man walking around Nanny Hua and the housekeeper, and then he had two purses in his hands.

It was not until Nanny Hua and the housekeeper saw the purse in the old man's hand that they realized they had been robbed. They and the old lady were stunned.

The old lady thought it was not good to go against the old man's wishes, so she finally kept the old man and let him continue to be a gardener who did not grow flowers.

Fortunately, the old man did not say in front of outsiders that he was a thief, so the old lady kept him as an ordinary gardener without any burden.

As soon as the old man left, Aunt Hua couldn't help but worry, "Madam, that old man is so skillful, if he steals from our house..."

"Don't worry, madam. I have retired long ago and just want to spend my old age in peace. Besides, I don't care about the trivial things in your house." The old man's words came from outside the door.

The old lady didn't say anything, but Aunt Hua was so angry that she fell backwards.

Shen Rong was secretly shocked as she listened to Chun Xing's vivid description of what had happened.

Shen Rong didn't know whether the old man stole the money in the mansion, but after the wall was repaired, she couldn't let the old man dig a dog hole again. It was too unsafe.

Shen Rong decided that she would plant more roses at the base of the wall in the future, and it would be best if they were densely packed so that no one could get through.

Shen Rong called Juxiang over.

"Juxiang, has your brother tried to grow flowers of other colors recently? Can you ask your brother to come here in person? I'm quite curious about your brother's method."

When Juxiang heard that Shen Rong wanted to meet her brother, she happily agreed immediately.

"Third Madam, I will go back and call my brother over."

The wall of the mansion has been almost repaired in the past two days, so the flowers to be planted under the wall can be prepared in advance. Shen Rong thought about it and asked Juxiang to go home today.

In the afternoon, Juxiang's brother was waiting in the front yard.

Pingping and Anan learned that the person who tied the two flowers together and planted them together and made them survive was in the front yard. The two little ones also clamored to see brother Juxiang.

Shen Rong brought the two children to the flower hall in the front yard.

Juxiang's brother is only two years older than Juxiang, about fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing a short jacket, and it seems that he is living a good life outside the mansion.

When Brother Juxiang was a child, his mother worked in the mansion, and he often came to Pingyang Marquis Mansion to visit his mother. Since his family left the mansion, he has come less often.

Therefore, he was not as nervous as others about entering the mansion again.

"My humble servant greets the young madam." Jiafu bowed.

Shen Rong didn't keep the secret, and after asking the people to get up, she asked, "I heard from Juxiang that you like to tend to the flowers and plants at home?"

Hearing this, Jiafu didn't even look at Shen Rong, but just stared at his toes and nodded.

"If I asked you to come into the mansion and take care of the flowers and plants there, would you be willing?"

It’s just that the flowers and plants in the mansion were taken care of by that old thief.

There aren't many flowers and trees in the mansion, and the yard is still so desolate. Shen Rong has given up hope on that old thief, so she decided to find someone who's good at this to take care of it as soon as possible.

After all, according to her plan, she would have to plant a lot of flowers and plants in the mansion in the future, and they would all need someone to take care of them.

As soon as Shen Rong said this, before Jiafu could say anything, a hint of excitement flashed across Juxiang's face.

Their family chose to leave the mansion in the first place because except for their father who had no job in the mansion, their brothers and sisters were too old to work in the mansion, so their parents chose to take them out of the mansion to make a living.

But they didn't expect that life outside would be more difficult than in the mansion.

In the past, no matter what, if life encountered difficulties, the master of the mansion would at least help out.

But once you leave the house, no matter how difficult life is, you have to bear it on your own.

Life was hard and her brother couldn't find a stable job. Finally, Juxiang's mother shamelessly begged the old lady to move her into the mansion.

Now that her brother can work in the mansion again, Juxiang is naturally happy for him!

Jiafu sensed his sister's happiness and nodded quickly, "To answer Young Madam's question, I am willing to do so."

Shen Rong smiled and said, "In addition to taking care of the flowers and plants in the mansion, I also want to know how you grow roses like that."
