Rong Xianyi lives in the east room on the third floor, and he lives in the east guest room on the second floor. Coincidentally, their rooms are on the upper floor.

He reasonably suspected that Rong Xianyi had arranged this on purpose.

There are two stairs behind the main building. After walking down, there is a very large back garden. There are many kinds of flowers planted in the garden. Even in winter, there are several colors blooming.

There is also a pavilion in the garden, which should be used for cooling in summer.

When he first returned to the guest room on the second floor, he heard several shouts coming from downstairs.

He stood on the corridor, holding the carved mahogany fence in his hand, and looked down.

I saw an old man wearing a dark gray robe standing in the living room and shouting towards the kitchen: "Mother Wu, hurry up and make a bowl of ginger soup. My wife has caught some wind and cold outside."

Seeing no one answered, the old man took two more steps forward: "Wu Ma, Wu Ma?"

As if aware of his gaze, the old man raised his head and looked at him with a sharp gaze.

Lin Shuyang guessed that this person was the housekeeper based on his clothes. He smiled and said, "Mother Wu is not here."

She is dead.

"Who are you? Where did Wu Ma go?" the old man asked.

As a result, before Lin Shuyang could speak, Rong Xianyi's voice came from upstairs: "Uncle Du."

Du Qing shouted: "Master, my wife is back."

Rong Xianyi walked down the stairs. When passing by the second floor, he glanced at Lin Shuyang and said, "Go in."

That look was a warning.

Lin Shuyang nodded. Anyway, this was his young master's family matter, and he was not interested in participating, so he returned to the room.

At noon, someone brought food to his room. It was Goudan.

Goudan put down his food and was about to leave, but Lin Shuyang called out to him.

"Goudan, let me ask you something."

Goudan looked wary: "What's the matter?"

"Don't you, Mr. Rong, have any brothers or sisters?" Lin Shuyang asked sincerely. He visited the entire Rong Mansion in the morning and never saw any other members of the Rong family except Rong Xianyi.

Goudan looked disgusted: "Where are you from? The Rong family only married one wife in his life, and his wife only gave birth to Rong Shao. Everyone in Shanghai knows about this, 'Nong Quexi' .”

Lin Shuyang's face fell: "Don't think that I can't understand Shanghainese. You are the only one who is 'Quexi', and your whole family is 'Quexi'."

How dare you call him stupid.

Goudan looked indifferent, "I'm the only one in my family anyway, so I'm too lazy to worry about the '13 o'clock' like you."

Lin Shuyang was not happy anymore. He smiled with some evil intentions.

"You...why are you laughing?"

"Do you know why you, Mr. Rong, let me stay in the guest room and said you would try your best to satisfy me with anything I need?"

Goudan shook his head: "Why?"

Lin Shuyang smiled mysteriously, "Let me ask you, are you, Young Master Rong, married?"

"No!"

"Then does he have a woman he likes?"

Goudan scratched his head: "It seems... not even."

"Then look at the men around him, are they all men?"

"Women can't do our job!"

Lin Shuyang reached out and patted Goudan on the shoulder, "Brother, the situation is still too small. Haven't you thought about other possibilities?"

Goudan looked confused.

Lin Shuyang tapped the center of his brow with his index finger in distress. People in this era still had relatively old-fashioned ideas. It seemed that if he didn't explain it clearly, Goudan's IQ wouldn't be able to understand it.

He lowered his head and whispered a few words into Goudan's ear, who looked shocked after hearing this.

After a long while, he blushed, pointed at Lin Shuyang and shouted: "You are talking nonsense! This is impossible."

"How is this impossible? Don't look at his cold and inhumane appearance, but secretly..." Before Lin Shuyang could finish speaking, Goudan yelled, clenched his fist and swung it at him.

"you shut up!"

Lin Shuyang, with quick eyes and hands, grabbed Goudan's fist and said, "Hey, hey, you can't do that, I just told a few truths."

"You still said that!"

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything anymore!"

Goudan withdrew his fist and threatened viciously: "If I hear you say such things again, I will definitely kill you!"

Lin Shuyang nodded, and Goudan snorted coldly, turned around and left.

That kid just now really wanted to kill him!

"He is really the protector!"

He just wanted to create rumors and cause some trouble for Rong Xianyi. Anyway, he was just a passerby in this era, and his own reputation was not that important.

"As the saying goes, there is a generation gap of three years. After all, there is a generation gap of thirty-one years between Goudan and I. No wonder he reacted so strongly. Forget it, relying on Goudan to spread rumors seems to be unworkable."

……

In the evening, Goudan knocked on the door.

The voice was cold: "My wife calls you to come down for dinner."

Although Lin Shuyang was a little surprised, he still followed him to the restaurant.

There was only one person at the dining table, Rong Xianyi, and all other seats were empty.

It seems that he arrived quite early.

Without showing any signs of offence, he pulled out the chair next to Rong Xianyi and sat down, "Young Master Rong, you don't mind if I sit here!" He turned his eyes and said with a smile: "Hey, when you are eating, you are finally willing to take off your gloves. Are you down?"

Rong Xianyi turned his head to look at him, his ink-like eyes showed some displeasure, but at the same time he was full of warning: "You are a friend I made in Zhenjiang. Remember your identity. The secret was exposed in front of my mother."

Lin Shuyang understood instantly that it was Uncle Du who told his wife that there was such a person like him, and Rong Xianyi told his mother that he was his friend for some unknown reason.

So what Rong Xianyi just said was to ask him to cooperate with him in acting!

Lin Shuyang stretched out a finger and said, "Give me 10,000 yuan and I will cooperate with you."

Such a good opportunity cannot be wasted.

Ten thousand yuan is not a small amount in this era.

"When you come back alive, I can give you 10,000 yuan." After Rong Xianyi finished speaking, he pointed to Lin Shuyang's side, "Sit over there, I don't like others to be too close to me."

Lin Shuyang propped up his chin without any intention of getting up, "We are friends, and besides, we have skin-to-skin contact. Don't be so open-minded!"

As he spoke, his eyes fell on Rong Xianyi's collar intentionally or unintentionally.

Goudan, who was standing aside, almost bit off his tongue when he heard these words. When he turned his head, he saw two people walking towards the stairs.

He had no choice but to lower his head and shout: "Hello, madam, hello, Butler Du."

Mrs. Rong has a kind face and kind eyes. Although she is nearly fifty years old, it can be seen that she was also a rare beauty when she was young.

She was wearing a brocade cheongsam and a gray fox fur coat. What she wore on her wrist was not a jade bracelet or other jewelry, but a string of Buddhist beads. This made her look low-key and restrained yet luxurious. .

Du Qing was followed behind her, and the two of them walked over slowly.

As he passed by, Lin Shuyang smelled a faint scent of sandalwood and stood up to say hello politely: "Hello, Mrs. Rong. My name is Lin Shuyang. I am... a friend of Mr. Rong's in Zhenjiang."
