He is from the end of the world

Shopping is really the most tiring thing, not one of them.

The two of them took a shortcut and returned to the mansion. They slumped on the bed and said nothing, not wanting to move.

The piece of candle in the lantern had been burned out, and there was only a puddle of solidified wax oil left at the bottom of the lamp. Lu Ciyu took off the base and unloaded six sheets of paper and looked at them over and over for a while, and the thoughts he had when he was drawing emerged again mind.

Lin Chi pushed open the door and walked in, his face still stained with water.Lu Ciyu hurriedly pulled the person over: "It's so cold outside, why don't you wipe it clean?"

Lin Chi liked this lamp very much in his heart, and obediently let him rub the handkerchief on his face: "What is Mr. Lu doing when you dismantle it?"

Lu Ciyu raised his eyebrows: "You will know in a few days."

Lin Chi became even more curious. He was afraid that Lu Ciyu would take the painting away and throw away the frame of the lamp, so he pestered him and wanted to ask.However, Mr. Lu, who can't stand him the most, is determined to ignore him.Lin Chi was so anxious that he couldn't let go for a long time, and finally he could only sleep with dissatisfaction.

Lu Ciyu breathed a sigh of relief when he lay down, this child is really cute... the elderly need a big blood bag to suckle.

He rummaged carefully in the space for a long time before he found the thing in his memory. He was worried that he had made a mistake in his memory, but he did not expect to find it.Lu Ciyu suppressed the smile on his lips, and quietly left the bedroom to the outside in order not to disturb the other party's sleep.

He lit a long candle, rolled up his sleeves and started to work.

------

The biological clock is a very miraculous thing, even if he was so tired this day, Lin Chi's consciousness still woke up uncontrollably the next morning.He secretly glanced at Lu Ciyu who was still sleeping, and wanted to climb out of bed lightly.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he moved, he was dragged back.

"Lie down for a while, it's too early now." Mr. Lu's vigilance ability is at full level, and Lu Ciyu woke up as soon as he moved, but he just opened his eyes lazily.

"I'm going to cook."

Lu Ciyu frowned: "I'll accompany you."

What I said to Lin Yang yesterday was true, and they are going to pack up and head back to the village today.

No matter how good the county town was, Lin Chi felt uncomfortable staying there. Lu Ciyu also noticed the prying eyes sent by many people nearby. The people living on this street were either rich or expensive. Lu Ciyu naturally understood their interest in the newcomers. The neighbor who moved in gave him "extra care", but Lu Ciyu was too sensitive to other people's gaze, so he simply decided to treat the county as a place for vacation and leisure, and just come and have fun.

The lanterns ordered yesterday hadn't arrived yet. After all, it's really early at this time. Mr. Lu got up and looked at the things he made last night, fiddled with them a few times, and then went to find Lin Chi.

The lanterns and guqin were delivered to the door after noon.At that time, the two of them were stuffing things into the carriage in the yard, most of them were cloth and other gifts for Li Zheng and the others. As for what was left for themselves, they had already packed it with Xunquan on their backs.

Lu Ciyu paid the bill, and returned to the yard with a lot of things after seeing people leave.Lin Chi was curious about his purpose yesterday, but he forgot everything when he went shopping at night.

"I want to draw something...you will know when you go back." Lu Ciyu continued to play tricks.

Lin Chi narrowed his eyes to look at him, and immediately threw himself on him.

Recently, this child was fed two lumps of soft meat on his face, which felt so good when pinched, Mr. Lu couldn't help pinching it back and forth so much that he couldn't put it down.

Xunquan has not been idle these few days. When they went out to play, Xunquan took care of the house and stayed in the courtyard to repair the damaged part of the carriage.Lu Ciyu walked through it again, and locked himself out of the mansion after making sure that he had nothing to bring.

When I first came here, I was in a hurry and had no experience.There is a specially built place for people to rest a few hours away from the county seat. Now it is almost time to arrive there when it is dark at night. After resting there for a night, you can start directly tomorrow morning.

He watched Lin Chi get into the carriage, and Lu Ciyu glanced back before the horse moved forward.

In fact, there is nothing to miss.

Be back in a few months.

------

Because they have already walked through it once, Xunquan probably has an idea of ​​the environment on the road in his heart, and their speed is obviously much faster after a reasonable estimate of the itinerary and rest time.

Until the early morning of the fifth day, the carriage slowly drove up the trail in the village.

The people in the village can't turn a blind eye to their carriages now, but now they can only talk a few words in their spare time after dinner, at least they won't look inside and outside for several layers like when they saw horses or carriages at the beginning. It's lively.

When they came back, Xun Yuan was cleaning the falling snow in front of the mansion, and when they saw someone, he quickly greeted him: "Master, Lord, you are back."

This title again... Lu Ciyu sighed.

He nodded, took the reins of the horse from Xunquan and stepped into the mansion together with Lin Chi: "How is the mansion during the few days we're away?"

Xun Yuan was stunned for a moment: "Returning to the master...something happened in the mansion in the past few days."

Lu Ciyu turned his head and glanced at him: "Go into the room and talk about it."

After the lock was removed, the pony went into the stable consciously. Without Lu Ciyu's order, no one would dare to tamper with the contents of the carriage. They had to leave it there. Lu Ciyu led Lin Chi into the main room: " What happened?"

The three looked at each other, and then knelt on the ground together: "Yes, it is because the slaves guarded carelessly at night and let the thieves run in."

A burglar broke into the house? !Lin Chi's eyes widened.

Excited, Xun Yuan claimed to have brought it out again, Xun Quan didn't know what happened and was worried to death beside him.Lu Ciyu frowned: "Get up, how many times have I told you not to call yourself that."

"But……".

"Can't get up?"

Lu Ciyu's downcast face was really scary, and the three of them stood up tremblingly: "It happened on the third day after you and the lord left. At the second watch, the puppy in the yard suddenly barked, and we got up in a hurry. Only then did I realize that someone sneaked in..."

"They came in from the back of the courtyard, which is the passage between the two courtyards. They went into the inner courtyard of the master and stole a lot of things. We only caught one, and the second person was caught by the master during his escape. Mr. Li caught it."

Waiting for this passage to contain a lot of information, Lu Ciyu lightly tapped the armrest of the chair a few times with his fingertips.

Because Lu Ciyu bought a large piece of land at the foot of the mountain, a long corridor was built between the two courtyards, and one could walk along the corridor to another courtyard.

Shelves were set up one by one on the top of the corridor. Lu Ciyu originally wanted to plant some grape vines here. In summer, when the vines covered the shelves, he could sit on the corridor and enjoy the shade. Unexpectedly, someone used the corridor to overturn them first. Come in……

"There are two people here?"

"Yes." Xun Yuan nodded: "I have already inquired about it. They are usually idle in the village. They are not young but do not do business. They have a very bad reputation in the village."

"Who are you talking about Mr. Li?"

In fact, Xun Yuan didn't know how to address the other party.

"It's the man looking for trouble that I met when I went to buy pork."

He also knew that it was definitely inappropriate to call him son in his capacity as the other party, but it was even more wrong to call him young master.Li Yan and Lu Ciyu were considered to be of the same generation, and he called him Brother Li...he was looking for death.

The guy who thought he was a little villain turned out to be a funny guy?

Lu Ciyu really didn't expect it to be him...

"The location of Lu's residence is remote, and his house is on the other side of the village. Why did he appear outside our residence at the second watch?" He even helped us catch a thief?

"I don't know if I look far away...".Xun Yuan lowered his head, he really didn't know.

"Where are those two thieves now?"

"...The next morning after the incident, their family made a fuss at the door and wanted to bring him up. We couldn't make decisions without the master, so we had to go to Lizheng in the end, and Master Lizheng took him away."

Lu Ciyu nodded and thought for a moment.

"I'll talk about your business later. Is there anything else besides this?"

The three shook their heads.

"Okay, keep busy." Lu Ciyu led Lin Chi into the back room.

The things in the house still look like they were rummaged that night. Xun Yuan and Yin Qiu Yinxue didn't know what was in the house, and they didn't dare to sort it out for fear that the number of stolen items would not match and they would be blamed eventually.

Not many things in the house were turned over. I heard from Xunyuan that the two people were discovered by the puppies not long after they turned over. One of the puppies was kicked by one of them when it rushed up to bite.

Lu Ciyu tidied up his things in the house, and Lin Chi went outside to find the puppy and carried him in.The man kicked extremely hard, and the puppy was badly injured. The fluffy one lay listlessly in Lin Chi's arms, with its ears drooping.

But it made Lin Chi feel bad.

There is nothing of value in the house, the house deed, land deed and bank notes are all in Lu Ciyu's space, and there are some daily furniture items outside, Lu Ciyu roughly looked around, only a few hairpin jewelry placed outside for Lin Chi gone.

Lin Chi usually doesn't like to wear these things, he only has the one Lu Ciyu's ancestral jade hairpin hidden like a treasure, and the rest are stored randomly in the shelf beside the table as property.Just as Lu Ciyu finished counting things, Xun Yuan knocked on the door and entered the house.

"Master, this was found from them when they were caught. See if there are any missing."

Lu Ciyu took it over and took a look. Besides the gold and silver, these two people actually stole a lot of his paintings.

Among them were the drafts of paintings that he sold in the town for money when he first got married, as well as a few strokes of landscapes that he sketched casually when he was in a good mood. He originally wanted to throw them away together, but Lin Chi couldn't bear to part with anything, and the family of Zuo and Zuo didn't lack this. The local Lu Ciyu put it there.

These things are usually rolled up one by one and placed in a large porcelain vat by the table, and only Lin Chi would open them one by one to have a look at them and stare at him with adoring eyes that Mr. Lu couldn't resist.If Lu Ciyu hadn't seen it at this time, he would have forgotten it.

At this moment, he didn't know whether to praise the two thieves for their foresight or for being stupid for not picking valuable ones.

Lu Ciyu asked people to take out the things in the carriage, and he turned out the things that were sent to Lizheng: "Now I have to go there for everything."
