Chapter 24 [-]. Du Mansion

"Is Ah Xuan going out today too?" Liang Jiqing called Liang Jixuan who was putting on his coat, and advised him, "You have been in Beiping for a few days, and you have been running around. We two brothers have met for so long, but we have never found a chance to have a good chat. Don't go out today, how about staying at home with brother?"

Liang Jixuan was somewhat in a dilemma. According to his heart, he was willing to talk to his brother at home, but now that Du Ruobai's situation was unknown and he had not confirmed it with his own eyes, he really couldn't let it go.

"Hey, let's go," Liang Jiqing understood Liang Jixuan's temperament, he smiled, "But, remember to take your umbrella with you when you go out, it's bound to rain today. Come back early today Well, don't stay outside for too long, it's not safe."

Liang Jixuan hurriedly agreed.

Before leaving the door, Liang Jixuan looked back anxiously.Standing behind Liang Jiqing, Du Ruobai's expression was normal, nothing unusual could be seen, he squinted to see Du Ruobai's shadow on the ground, but it was still early in the morning, the morning light was not clear, and Du Ruobai was standing behind the table again, unable to see clearly at all.He looked back disappointed, but happened to meet Du Ruobai face to face.

Du Ruobai didn't dodge, looked back at him, and nodded to show his intention; but Liang Jixuan was hiding something in his heart, and avoided it in a bit of embarrassment.He was also a little confused for a moment, this Du Ruobai looked quite normal, could it be that Wan Shan lied?He thought about it again, and felt that something was wrong, Wan Shan didn't need to deliberately say such a lie because of his feelings.However, there is also the possibility that Du Ruobai woke up a long time ago, and Mr. Du secretly suppressed the news... He shook his head, instead of guessing wildly, it would be more reliable to find out the truth.

He hired a rickshaw and drove to Nadu Mansion.

Liang Jixuan was worried at first that he didn't know the exact location of the Du's mansion, so it would take a lot of effort, and when he got in the car, he realized that he was worrying too much.

"Go to the Du Mansion..." Liang Jixuan got stuck, he only knew that Du Ruobai was the young master of the Du Mansion, but he didn't know exactly where this place was.

"Come on, sit still!" The rickshaw driver Ma Liu'er got up without even pausing.

"Are you so sure that the Du Mansion you mentioned is the same as the one I mentioned?" Liang Jixuan couldn't help teasing the coachman when he saw his certainty.

"Hey! If you usually say you want to go to Du's mansion, I would have to ask you a little more, but I don't need to ask you today, it must be Du Ruobai's first seedling in the family!" The coachman shook his head, The words are very confident.

Liang Jixuan's heart skipped a beat, "How can you be so sure?"

"Hi! Are you a foreign doctor?" The coachman asked a question instead of answering.

"How did you see that?" Liang Jixuan was secretly surprised.

"I always wait at the gate of Xiehe on weekdays, and I can often drive foreign doctors and nurses in and out of the hospital. They are all just like you." Unclear smell. Me, as soon as I smell this nose, I know that you are a foreign doctor just like them."

"Mr. Du posted the notice, who doesn't know when he leaves Peiping," the coachman clicked his tongue, "At the beginning, he said that he could wake up Young Master Du, and he would reward him with a hundred cash, and turn it over the next day. This is the first time." It's been seven days, Young Master Du hasn't woken up yet, so I don't know what to do."

"Mr. Du is also a new-style figure. He sneered at the ghost's heresy. At the beginning, he only called doctors by name. These days, he has softened his words. He welcomes all kinds of teachings and nonsense at the door, just as it is A dead horse is treated as a living horse doctor, so don't care about it," the coachman heaved a sigh of relief, "In just these days, the doctors, Taoists, and monks I have brought have gone to the Du Mansion six times. You, it's just a coincidence It's the seventh."

Liang Jixuan fell into contemplation. With the heavy rewards, although there must be many people who fish in troubled waters, there must be people with real talents.The assumption that Du Ruobai pretended to be unconscious can be ruled out first...

"Master, the land is here!" The coachman stopped suddenly, he pointed to the big mansion in front of him, "I think you can do it."

"Hi?" Liang Jixuan couldn't help laughing, "You can really talk."

"Oh! Don't think that I'm flattering you. I like to gossip about the Book of Changes on weekdays. You are the seventh guest I brought here, and you happened to hit the sun when Young Master Du was in a coma. , " the coachman approached mysteriously, "I reckon you are the savior of the man inside."

"Well, it's a waste of your eloquence to pull a cart. It's better to set up a divination booth to tell your fortune." Liang Jixuan laughed, "But, I'm borrowing your blessings. , rescued this Du Ruobai, and I must give you a big red envelope when I come back."

Liang Jixuan smiled and shook his head, this person is really interesting.He stood at the gate of Du's mansion and looked, but was intimidated by the long queue.

The door of the Du Mansion was wide open, and there was a long queue at the door that stretched a hundred meters away.The foreign-style gentlemen in suits and leather shoes, the old man in Chinese-style gowns, and the Taoist monks in Taoist robes and monks are strangely mixed together. It is really a spectacle.Liang Jixuan looked at this absurd scene, but his smile collapsed. The bigger the battle, the bigger the pomp, the more serious this matter will be.

His heart sank to the bottom.

The man who looked like a servant guarding the gate was startled when he saw him. He looked around, carefully avoided the crowd, and sneaked up to Liang Jixuan. "Brother Liang, why do you dare to come here!" He tugged on Liang Jixuan's sleeve, his delicate face wrinkled, "Before the old man is not looking at you, hurry up and leave!" He went to a quiet corner where there were few people He took Liang Jixuan with him.

"Hey, don't panic!" Liang Jixuan's mind turned quickly. This is probably a trustworthy person around Du Ruobai. Judging from the situation, he must be familiar with Liang Jiqing, "I just want to ask, is Ruobai okay?" Liang Jixuan made mistakes and asked him in Liang Jiqing's tone.

"My young master, my poor young master," the servant couldn't help but sighed, his face full of worry, "Master Ruobai has been in a coma since August 31, and he hasn't woken up yet. Don't look at this team. The queue is so long, there is no one useful..."

"Xiaoxi, who are you talking to over there?" A loud voice came from behind.

Xiaoxi's face paled in an instant, he subconsciously turned around and put Liang Jixuan behind him, "Master...the master is no one! I'll come right over!" He hurriedly gestured to Liang Jixuan secretly.

Although he didn't know why, Liang Jixuan hurriedly followed and hid in the corner.

"Okay, you don't need to hide anymore," Mr. Du walked over, and pulled Xiao Xi who was standing in front of Liang Jixuan, "Is it Ruobai's group of unprofessional student friends again?"

Liang Jixuan stepped out bravely.

"It's you?!" With an exclamation, Mr. Du's face turned pale.
