The black cat is on top, the evil spirits retreat

The gate of the small courtyard was surrounded with water, Rongli squeezed into the crowd, holding a black cat in his arms, this time a head of the house came, the battle at the gate was not small.

Zhou You, who had seen him once, immediately saw him sharply, and immediately walked towards this side, pushed the two servants around Rongli, blamed him and said: "Don't you have long eyes, the young master is here, why don't you hurry up and get out of the way?" !"

As he said that, he welcomed Rongli into the room with a smile on his face, his eyes calmly wandered away from the sword on his back for a long time, it was held by a man in black that day, why is there no one today?

As soon as he entered the main hall, he saw a man who was older than Zhou You sitting there, Rongli's eyes did not rest on him.

"This is the master, the young master is coming to see you!" Zhou You clasped his hands in front of him, a little nervous, and looked up to find that Master Zhou's face was a little dark.

Rong Li didn't seem to hear, he took a few sticks of incense and lit the candle next to the wooden sign, put it in the small incense burner, hugged the cat in one hand, and kowtowed on the futon.

Under Zhou You's nervous gaze, he walked up to Master Zhou.Without saying a word, he glanced at his face a few times, then raised his head, and asked with a somewhat indifferent expression: "Are you here to burn incense for mother?"

Just now when he entered the door, he could smell the tangy smell of incense, so he asked this question.

Knowing his intentions clearly, Rongli wanted to embarrass him by insinuating, and looked at the man sitting in front of him coldly, making people feel that the child's innocence is a bit distressing.

The man had a few strands of white hair on his temples, his lips were tightly pressed, and he stretched out his hand to rest on the top of Rongli's warm hair.An old voice leaked out, "I'm here to take you home."

Rong Li looked at him with a strange expression, obviously expressing that he did not understand the meaning of this sentence.

"Mother is here, I won't leave!" Rong Li immediately shook his head, frowned slightly, seriousness appeared on his delicate face.

Master Zhou raised his eyes, but there was no anger in his eyes, he just ordered Zhou You: "Take all the niche boxes with you."

Standing up and getting closer to Rongli, looking at his delicate and warm eyebrows, he lowered his tone, "Then take your mother home together."

Rong Li stared at him blankly, noncommittal.

But there is some entanglement in my heart: if they do this, the dead people have been buried in the ground, and there is no point in making some compensation. At most, it can make those people feel better, and as for whether they feel uncomfortable or not, I have to say something else.

If he wanted to vent his anger on Zhou Rushi, it would be natural to say it, but he felt in his heart that she shouldn't care about it.

He nodded in a daze, and then he was held by the hand and walked out.

Those people outside all lowered their heads, yesterday they rushed to nothing when they came, and today when the master came, they delivered it to their door.

"This cat..."

In the carriage, Zhou Zhongmu and Rongli were sitting opposite each other, Rongli didn't say a word, just stared at the cat that was still sleeping peacefully in his arms.

According to folk records, black cats are mostly evil things, but what is very evil is that they are originally evil things and can drive away evil things.

"Mine." Rong Li stared at Zhou Chongmu with clear eyes, announcing some truth to him, and the cat in his arms burrowed into his arms again.

Zhou Zhongmu moved his eyelids, but he didn't say anything after all.The child on the opposite side, who was only four or five years old, looked more independent and well-behaved than he imagined. His eyes fell on the sword behind him,

The journey was especially quiet. After entering Yin County, the carriage stopped bumping and soon stopped in front of a mansion on the main street.

A small group of people had already gathered at the door, besides the two doorkeepers, there were three other people who were dressed...in different ways.

They are lined up in order from left to right in terms of age, Rongli only glanced lightly, guessing that they are in the order of second, third, and fourth. Judging from the appearance, the second wife obviously looks much more graceful and luxurious, and the rest The second one is even more beautiful.

The one who took the lead in front of the three wives should be Zhou Yongting, the young master of the Zhou family, who led the wives to greet them.

"father."

"Master~" the three of them spoke in unison.

Zhou Chongmu responded, and pushed Rongli to the front, Rongli lowered his brows and eyes, with a timid look on his face.

It's just that when the second lady reached out to touch his head, she suddenly raised her head and glanced at her. There was a trace of coldness in her calm eyes, and she refused to be touched by others.

"I thought it was a little sick cat, but I didn't want to be a little tiger~" The third lady said to the fourth lady in a low voice holding a handkerchief without bothering to watch the excitement, but her voice was not restrained intentionally, and everyone present could hear it clearly.

The Fourth Madam raised her eyebrows and bent her lips to see that he was carrying a sword behind him, with a hairpin on his head and a white shirt, and a long sword one foot higher than his head on his back , looks like a little Taoist priest.

"What are you doing here!" Zhou Chongmu frowned and said sharply, took Rongli's hand and walked towards the mansion, the rest of the people looked at each other and hurriedly followed.

Jun Heng, who had been hugged by Rong Li all the way, jumped out of his arms and stood at his feet with his tail up.

Seeing that Rongli's chopsticks hadn't moved a few times from the beginning to the end, except for picking up the rice in the bowl, he hadn't picked up any vegetables.

This is not possible, Jun Heng bit Rong Li's trousers and tugged.

The meat dishes on the table were indeed not to Rongli's taste, Rongli just lowered his head to look at him, and saw a black figure flashing out of the door very quickly.

"Is the food not to your liking?" Zhou Chongmu stopped to look at Rongli, staring seriously at Rongli's dark eyes.

Rong Li nodded honestly, and said concisely: "Xi Su."

"Everyone with children should eat more meat!" The second wife said and picked a piece of meat and wanted to add it to Rongli's bowl.

Why do you want to be difficult, Rongli directly put down his chopsticks, Zhou Zhongmu thought for a while and thought that maybe it was Zhou Yao's fault, he was dressed in plain clothes, and it was normal for him to ask for vegetarian food.

Stopping the exit: "Wait a minute!" She glanced sharply at the second lady, the other lady's hand holding the chopsticks paused, and the meat just fell into Rongli's bowl.

"Master..." The second lady showed a embarrassed and aggrieved expression on her face, and continued to defend herself: "Children always eat vegetarian food, which is not good for their health..."

Rong Li sat in his seat expressionlessly, and heard Zhou Zhongmu say again: "Go and change a bowl for the young master!"

Everyone was silent, and Rongli didn't speak. He could feel several eyes shifting back and forth on his face, and when he raised his head, he inadvertently collided with Zhou Yongting's eyes.

Rongli quickly moved away from the hidden vicious feeling.

He picked up the rice in the bowl again, and there was another silence.

"Housekeeper, is the room ready?"

"It's settled, sir."

Rong Li was arranged to be in the same yard as Zhou Zhongmu, and none of them dared to speak out, even though this directly showed his status in Zhou's family.

A double shadow lingered at the gate of the courtyard, the full moon hung high, Rongli followed Zhou Zhongmu behind, and was led to his own room, facing Zhou Zhongmu's study.

Jun Heng sniffed his breath and followed him, and was hugged by Rong Li again.

On the table in the inner room are the dishes placed by Jun Heng, glowing with heat.

He didn't know Jun Heng's thoughts, the white rice was actually [-]% full just now, but he couldn't waste his kindness.

Jun Heng propped his chin up, holding a small dried fish in his hand and occasionally chewing in his mouth, while staring at Rongli who was eating.

Zhou Zhongmu arranged him here, which on the surface showed his status in the Zhou family, but at the same time, it also meant that the person's status was higher, and I don't know if he would take the initiative to tell him about it.

Rather than waiting like this, it is better to get some information from the other members of the Zhou family.

Thinking so calmly, Mrs. Zhou has been frustrated twice in a row today. Seeing Zhou Zhongmu protecting her like this, she feels aggrieved in her heart, and at the same time must look down on him even more. If she is more exciting, she might say what?

He raised his clear eyes and looked at Jun Heng, "I don't know how much Mrs. Zhou knows?"

Jun Heng changed his palm into a fist and continued to support his chin. Although it was just a face-to-face meeting today, judging from Shu Tian's investigation later, Zhou Zhongmu didn't seem to explain it to others in detail.

"If you want to know, just try." Jun Heng was a little slurred because of the small fish.

He just wanted to know how Rong Li would offend that woman, his occasional willful appearance was very attractive.

The Zhou family's meal time was still silent as usual.

"I want to go to worship my mother." Rong Li put down the bowl and chopsticks, breaking the silence.

Zhou Chongmu signaled Zhou You to come over, "Take him there."

"Yes." Zhou You had already placed Zhou Rushi's niche box in the Zhou Family Ancestral Hall as instructed yesterday.

"Please, young master." Zhou You stood outside the door respectfully.

The rankings inside are arranged neatly, next to Mrs. Zhou's family is Zhou Rushi's ranking.

Rong Li knelt down on the futon, there was no sadness or joy in his eyes, it was as quiet as a hot spring.It was only when he suddenly thought of the bitten Pei Chief that he frowned.

Jun Heng stood outside with his tail upright, standing beside the pillars in the corridor. The red painted pillars made his hair blacker and brighter, his thin pupils flickered, showing laziness and inadvertent arrogance all over his body.

Probably because the waiting time was a bit long, Zhou You suddenly wanted to tease the black cat. It was completely hairless, and its dark green pupils were staring at the door all the time, which seemed to make sense.

"You look very handsome, little thing!" Zhou You bent down and reached out his hand to grab his neck.

With a creak, the door was opened from the inside, Rong Li watched his movements, frowned and said coldly: "This is mine, don't you understand?"

The little body crossed the threshold, smoothed the hair on Jun Heng's head, heard the teasing in his tone from inside, and he came out quickly, otherwise Zhou You must have landed on his ass at this moment.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Zhou You bowed his head, laughed a few times, and apologized to Rong Li.At the bottom of my heart, I was unwilling to think: Isn't it just a cat, it is necessary to maintain it like this!

"Go down, I want to walk by myself!" Rong Li hugged Jun Heng and ordered.

"Yes." Zhou You backed off after saying that, everyone said that this kind of black cat was very evil, and seeing them inseparable like that, felt very weird.

The weather was too stuffy, and there would probably be a downpour. Rongli walked very slowly, looking around. The courtyards of the Zhou family were scattered in all directions. Zhou Chongmu lived alone in the south courtyard. I live alone in the east courtyard, the west courtyard is the courtyard of the third wife and the second wife, and the north courtyard is the courtyard where the ancestral hall is located.

"Hey! Isn't this the young master!" The tone was half angry and half smiling.

Rong Li heard a greeting and turned his head to take a look.

Before I knew it, I probably came to the gate of the West Courtyard. The green radish wrapped the entire wall forcefully, as gorgeous and delicate as the two ladies.

Based on yesterday's impression, Rong Li nodded and said, "Third Madam."

"The little one knows people!" The third lady looked younger than Zhou Rushi, with gorgeous makeup, bright eyes, and bright red cheeks.While speaking, there was an air of wind and dust.

With a bright smile on his face all the time, he walked towards Rongli with graceful steps.He looked at him carefully, his eyes were generous and clear, and there was a bright interest in his eyes, and he did not restrain himself at all.

"My name is Chu Xi, how about you?" The words were familiar, but not annoying.

"Zhou Chen." Rong Li looked at her fixedly.

"Zhou Chen, Zhou Chen... Shen..." He said it several times, the delicate willow leaf eyebrows frowned, and stretched out his hands to pinch Rongli's soft face, his eyes matched the word "Shen", Quiet as water.

There was a warm touch on Rongli's face, and Rongli took a step back belatedly, causing Chu Xi to laugh lowly, and the finger painted with Dan Kou just fell into the air.

"Children, don't be so old-fashioned!" Chu Xi was not ashamed or annoyed, she withdrew the hand she wanted to squeeze again, with a smile in her eyes, "But you look pretty, just like your mother."

Rong Li raised his head upon hearing this, "Have you seen her?"

I've seen it before, Chu Xi thought, and nodded slightly.

Rong Li saw her sincere expression, this bright woman seemed out of tune with the Zhou family, she always gave people a natural and detached feeling in the world.

"Why did you come to Zhou's house?" I couldn't help asking her.

Chu Xi lowered her head slightly, thought carefully, and said seriously, "To see you!" Without waiting for Rongli's reaction, she pinched his soft little face again, and said with a teasing smile, "Who made you so handsome and cute! "

"Meow!" Jun Heng jumped down from the tree and landed between the two of them, warning Chu Xi with his gloomy eyes.

"Yo! This little thing likes you so much!" Chu Xi smiled even more happily, not caring at all.Wiping off the thin sweat on his forehead, "Why don't you go inside and have a rest?"

The shadow of the tree at the door was mixed with the breeze, the Xia Chan on the tree outside was chirping tirelessly, and Rong Li was obediently ushered into the house by Chu Xi.

The author has something to say:

Oh, Miss Chu Xi is so good at flirting, hee hee~
