[Soul Ferry] I see ghosts every day at work
Chapter 19
After the driver brought the two of them to the manor, a housekeeper who called himself Fu Bo brought people to pick them up and settle them down.
The Xu family's manor was built in an antique style, exactly the same as the deep house compound in the TV series. If it wasn't for walking with An Ming, Xia Dongqing would have suspected that she had traveled to ancient times.
The rooms of An Ming and Xia Dongqing were arranged in the Liufang Garden on the east side of the manor. The two adjacent rooms were still retro in appearance, but the interior was modern and advanced, comparable to a room in a five-star hotel.
Xia Dongqing sat on the big double bed in the room and looked around. The high-end ceiling lamp, the big-screen TV, the mahogany sofa, the purple sand tea set...all of these gave him a sense of uneasiness that made him go to the wrong place, and it also made him more and more suspicious that he didn't care about Zhao. Whether the official's persuasive decision to go his own way is really correct.
"Dinglingling..." The phone beside the bed rang suddenly, startling Xia Dongqing.He hurriedly picked up the phone, and the butler's steady voice came from inside: "My master invites Mr. An and Mr. Xia to the front hall for tea. I'll send someone over to invite you two after a while."
Xia Dongqing was stunned for a while before she realized it. As soon as she said "yes", the phone was hung up.
Looking at the phone that was making a "beep" sound for a while, Xia Dongqing silently hoped that this matter would end quickly without any surprises.
After a brief tidying of their clothes, the person sent by the housekeeper to pick them up came.
An Ming looked at the mobile phone and followed the servant calmly. He was not at all surprised by the layout of the manor, and seemed to be familiar with the road leading to the front hall from Liufang Garden.
"An Ming, do you know the way here?" Xia Dongqing approached An Ming and asked him quietly.The layout of the Xu Family Manor refers to the construction of gardens in the south of the Yangtze River. The roads inside have nine bends and eighteen bends. If you are not familiar with it, you may really get lost.
"It's okay, I've been here a few times, and I live in Liufang Garden." An Ming put away his phone, put his hands in his trousers pockets, and looked around casually, "I heard from Boss Xu that his mother seems to be from Yangzhou. So he hired someone to imitate a garden in Yangzhou to build this manor, and spend a lot of money every year to hire someone to take care of it, how about it? Does it feel like a vacation?"
Xia Dongqing was noncommittal. It stands to reason that being able to live in such a garden for free for one night should be a huge advantage, but for some reason, as soon as he entered the manor, he began to feel uneasy, and there was always a feeling that something was about to happen. premonition.
The two chatted one after another, and quickly entered the front hall.
The layout of the front hall did not refer to the ancient arrangement, but it was like a modern one, with a set of leather sofas and a marble coffee table.
When An Ming and Xia Dongqing entered the hall, Xu Shuanghui was not there. The servant asked them to sit down and poured tea for them before Xu Shuanghui came in.
As soon as he entered the door, he apologized to the two of them: "Mr. An, Mr. Xia, I'm really sorry. Father, the first seven, has too many relatives to entertain. I've neglected you two. Please forgive me."
"It doesn't matter." An Ming smiled, returning to Xu Shuanghui for the two of them, "Mr. Xu can go about his own business, I'm also a regular visitor here, I know what to do and what not to do."
"That's good, that's good. If Mr. An and Xia Dongqing need anything, just ask the servants. You don't have to be polite with me. You are all my friends. If you come to my house, you must have a good time." Xu Shuanghui laughed. , like the King of the Mountain on TV.
An Ming was silent, Xia Dongqing didn't know how to answer, so he could only giggle along with him.
At this time, a woman's high voice came from outside the door: "Be careful, these are all magic weapons of the master. If you break them, you won't be able to pay for them!"
The woman's high-pitched voice was getting closer and closer to the living room. Not long after, a middle-aged woman in a black dress and black sunglasses entered the living room. When she saw the three people sitting on the sofa, she was stunned for a moment, then took off her clothes. He took off his sunglasses and smiled at Xu Shuanghui: "Second brother came back early enough."
The person who came was Xu Shuanghui's eldest sister, Xu Shuangjiao.
Xu Shuangjiao is over forty years old, well-maintained and charming.Seeing An Ming, he was not unfamiliar, and greeted him politely: "Mr. An is here too, long time no see."
"Mrs. Ma has a really bad memory. I only came here on the day the old man was going to be buried." Xu Shuangjiao's husband was named Ma Sheng, so An Ming called her Mrs. Ma.
"Oh, I must have been busy greeting guests and didn't notice Mr. An." Xu Shuangjiao couldn't see any emotion on her delicately made-up face, and she walked to the empty sofa in two steps on stiletto heels He sat down on the seat, looked at Xu Shuanghui and asked: "You have to prepare for Dad's first seven, and we are not short of that little money, so don't let people talk about us behind our backs."
"Of course I'll prepare for Dad's first seven, so don't worry about it." Xu Shuanghui turned his head and replied bluntly.
At this time, Xu Shuangjiao's husband, Ma Sheng, also entered the front hall. Ma Sheng, who was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, only nodded when he saw Xu Shuanghui, then walked up to Xu Shuangjiao, and said in a low voice, "The servant has already brought the salute into the room. Do you want to go back to your room and take a shower and change your clothes?"
"No need." Without looking at Ma Sheng, Xu Shuangjiao waved her hand so that Ma Sheng would not block her view, leaned out her upper body and looked towards the door, and said loudly, "Where is Master Zhang? Hurry up and invite Master to come in for tea and rest."
As soon as the words were finished, a middle-aged man walked in. When the visitor approached, Xia Dongqing saw his appearance clearly, and couldn't help gasping. This person was none other than his former "old friend", Zhang Tianshi!
Zhang Tianshi was obviously also very surprised to see An Ming and Xia Dongqing, his brows furrowed almost inaudibly, and he quickly relaxed, putting on his usual benevolent smile: "It's really amazing to meet Mr. An and Mr. Xia here." Destined, destined."
"It's a fate, and it's a bad fate." An Ming looked at Zhang Tianshi and smiled.He looks handsome, and this smile, in the eyes of others, is handsome and handsome, with extraordinary temperament, but in the eyes of Zhang Tianshi, there is only creepiness left.
An Ming's behavior has always been elusive. After he lost his mana, he could only rely on a few ancestral magic tools to do some small tricks, and his life was not as good as before.By accident, she met Xu Shuangjiao who was in a hurry to go to the doctor. She wanted to make a fortune, but she never thought that she would run into An Ming again, but she didn't know how An Ming would deal with him this time.
Zhang Tianshi was anxiously thinking about what he would do if An Ming wanted to deal with him.An Ming was a little fortunate for Zhang Tianshi's appearance. After all, the enemy's pig teammate was his advantage. Instead of exposing him as a magic stick, it would be better to keep him to add trouble to Xu Shuangjiao.
After An Ming sat down to make a decision, he held down Xia Dongqing who wanted to expose Zhang Tianshi, and motioned him to be calm.
Xia Dongqing didn't know why, and was about to ask, when the cell phone in her pants pocket rang.As long as Zhang Tianshi's affairs are left for the time being, when he connected the phone, Zhao Li's angry voice came out clearly: "Xia Dongqing, hurry to the gate to welcome your boss."
"Ah?" Xia Dongqing was at a loss. Did Zhao Li forget that he asked for leave today, "Where are you? Do you want me to pick you up?"
"Where else can it be? The gate of the Xu Family Manor, hurry up and come out."
It was only after Zhao Li hung up the phone that Xia Dongqing realized that Zhao Li had come to the Xu Family Manor, and he was at the door now.He briefly said a few words to An Ming, then hurriedly got up and ran to the gate.
Sure enough, Zhao Li's car was parked in the open space outside the gate, and Zhao Li, who was wearing sunglasses and dressed in black, was leaning on the front of the car with his arms folded, obviously waiting for Xia Dongqing.
Seeing Xia Dongqing running towards him, Zhao Li took off his sunglasses and hung them on his clothes. He smiled ruffianically: "How is it? The boss personally came to escort you, isn't it very touching?"
Xia Dongqing habitually wanted to nod in agreement, but suddenly realized that the point didn't seem to be this, and asked, "No, what are you doing here?"
"Protect you." Zhao Li put his arm on Xia Dongqing's shoulders with a look of spontaneity, "The Xu family is a den of dragons and tigers. You see, you are so petite and weak, and you are in deep danger alone. As a caring and righteous person, I Good boss, of course I will come to save you from the dire straits."
Originally, Xia Dongqing should have given Zhao Li a merciless look, but seeing Zhao Li again after Zhang Tianshi appeared, made Zhao Li appear extraordinarily reliable and reassuring.
Therefore, Xia Dongqing just laughed off Zhao Li's exaggerated remarks this time: "Forget it, let's go in and talk about it first."
Just as the two of them crossed their arms and were about to enter the house, five black cars drove up to the gate of Xu's Manor and stopped in an orderly manner beside Zhao Li's car.
The car door opened, and twenty young men in black suits and black sunglasses got out of the car one by one and stood behind a tall and burly young man.
The tall young man took off his sunglasses and put them in his suit pocket, glanced at Zhao Li and Xia Dongqing who were standing at the door, and gestured to the people behind him, and they walked into the gate of the Xu Family Manor.
"Isn't the Xu family in business? Could it be that they are still connected to the underworld?" Xia Dongqing looked at the backs of a group of black-clothed youths, and it was really hard not to be associated with black films made in Hong Kong.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Li was hit on the back of the head lightly, Xia Dongqing looked at Zhao Li complainingly, not knowing what he said wrong.
Zhao Li knew what Xia Dongqing was thinking when he saw Xia Dongqing's expression: "Didn't you read the information I gave you? This is the third child of the Xu family, Xu Shuangqiang."
All three children of Mrs. Xu had arrived, and Xia Dongqing felt more and more uneasy in his heart. Now, he believed even more what Zhao Li said. The affairs of the Xu family were definitely not as simple as what An Ming and Xu Shuanghui told him. The first seven nights of Mrs. Xu It will definitely be a sleepless night; at this moment, Xia Dongqing is also very thankful that Zhao Li has come and is here for him, as if as long as he is by his side, there will be no insurmountable difficulties in this world.
