The Days in Central Plains

Chapter 113: Tao Lin old servant

Views:

On the second day, I changed into a coarse blouse and drove an ox cart from Lao Sun’s house to Murong Mountain Villa to deliver firewood. The concierge saw me and asked why you were here alone. I quickly handed over a pound of tobacco leaves that I had prepared. My uncle was unwell last night, so I came to deliver the firewood today. The concierge did not trouble me, but sent a small servant to follow me all the time. After I unloaded the firewood, I didn't have a chance, so I slipped out.

When I came back to discuss with Liu Qingfeng, Liu Qingfeng persuaded me that you can't hold it in just two or three days. Brother, I support you. I said that I have been patronizing gift-giving for the past two days, and I haven't even seen Mingjiao Yinger. I don't have much money with me, you see

Liu Qingfeng said that I support you spiritually, there is no way to borrow money!

This **** went to Murong Mountain Villa to deliver firewood, and became more familiar with the concierge for several days. Besides, they didn't leave empty-handed every time, and the conversation between the two became lively. The concierge is called Murong Laifu. I invited him to drink at noon this day. I took the opportunity to ask if I could find a livelier in the mansion

Murong Laifu said, the guy in the vegetable garden of our house has taken a leave of absence because of something. I wonder if you can do it? When I was studying art at the Taishan School, in the first year, Master did not teach martial arts. I did all the work of chopping wood, burning fire, carrying water, and growing vegetables. Laifu said, I will talk to the third master at night, but...

I gritted my teeth and handed over fifty taels of silver. Then I would like to thank Brother Laifu. In less than a few days, the money I got from selling Ji Junbi was completely spent, and I couldn't help being grateful to Ji Junbi. If I had the opportunity to sell a few more times, I wouldn't make a lot of money, I thought to myself.

On the second day, I went to deliver firewood. Laifu found me with a smile and said that your business was done. It took a long time for the third butler and I to help you with this errand, so don't mess it up. I said it was natural. Brother Laifu, I am new to the Villa. There are some things that are beyond the rules. You can bear more.

Laifu took me to see the third housekeeper, and I bowed to the courtesy. The third housekeeper briefly asked about my hometown and so on, and walked away impatiently.

Laifu took me to the vegetable garden, and I saw it, obediently, with a full ten acres of land, much brighter than the one-third acre of the Taishan School. Laifu Road, you will be here to take care of the garden from now on. Next to the garden is Taoyuan. Those of us who are from the outer yard, don’t pass through, or I can’t help you. I thank you again and again.

It’s mid-March. The cucumbers, spinach, peppers, and peas planted in the early spring have sprouted and grown leaves. It is rainy in the south of the Yangtze River. I don’t have to worry about watering too much. It’s just that some vines climb up. Pulling out the weeds in the garden, catching bugs by the way, it's not too busy. It's just a newcomer, and I haven't had a chance to visit the inner courtyard.

Next to the vegetable garden is a peach grove, which spreads to the mountain, covering hundreds of acres. It is the time when the peach blossoms are in bloom, and it looks very beautiful from here.

After finishing my farm work one morning and seeing no one around, I walked through the garden to admire the peach blossoms. The towers and pavilions are hidden among the peach blossoms in the mountains, which are very beautiful. I wonder where the Mingjiao's boudoir is? I wonder if she is also enjoying peach blossoms in the room

I think there is a hut next to Taolin. There is an old man at the door carrying an easy chair to bask in the sun. The old man in coarse linen is holding a hip flask in his hand. It is estimated that he is a servant who takes care of Taoyuan. , It feels comfortable. There was a snoring sound, and it was probably asleep.

After watching for a while, I heard someone calling me next door, and I hurried back to the garden, but came to Fu to find a meal. The meals served by the servants of Murong Mountain Villa were also delicious, but the amount was too small. I'm from the north again, and I can eat four or five bowls of rice per meal, and I'm a mess of Qin's rice bucket. I didn't care about these jokes.

After lunch, I went back to the vegetable garden, thinking that there would be nothing wrong in the afternoon, so I might as well find a way to take a stroll around the inner courtyard. If someone asked, I would say I was lost. Suddenly it rained, and I remembered that the old man in the hut was still sleeping, so I went back to the wood shed and took an umbrella and sent it to him.

When I came here, I saw the old man snoring like thunder. I was afraid to wake him up, so I covered him with a coat and helped him hold the umbrella. After doing this, I suddenly felt a little silly, so why not just wake him up and go back to the house? I yelled twice, but there was no response, so I had to stand under an umbrella.

Murong Mountain Villa in the rain adds a hazy, misty atmosphere, surrounding the mountainside, like a jade belt, like a paradise on earth.

Murong Mountain Villa really knows how to choose a place. This mountain and village may have taken half of Jinling City's aura. I feel refreshed and happy. In a short while, he enters a state of selflessness. The True Qi in my body gradually filled, although the Four Lakes were not full, they no longer became an obstacle to the movement of True Qi, and my consciousness spread like tentacles. This kind of feeling was experienced when I fell into the fifth and sixth ranks of the middle realm in that night terror formation.

Cough!

I recovered and saw that the old man had woken up and looked at me with a smile. I hurriedly gave a gift. It was raining just now. I saw that the old man was very sleepy and didn't dare to disturb him. I was in Xia Qin Sanguan and was in the vegetable garden next door.

The old man laughed, I almost forgot my name, but there are a few little guys who like to call me immortal, you can call me immortal.

How dare I call that. The old man said, I think you are not weak in martial arts, how can you be willing to be a vegetable farmer in Murong Mountain Villa

My heart said I came for Murong Qiushui, do you believe it? On the lips, I admire the Murong Mountain Villa very much. This mountain villa is built on the back of the mountain. It has a beautiful clock and a collection of the essence of the world. It is no wonder that the Murong family has been standing in the rivers and lakes for hundreds of years, and it is the best beauty in the rivers and lakes. Being able to make a living here is also considered a good fortune. If you go out in the future, you can brag about it with your friends.

The old man took a sip of the wine and threw the jug over. I took it and took a big sip. The wine tasted sweet and mellow. It was by no means comparable to those in the restaurant, praised, good wine.

The old man asked, do you still know little girl Murong

I know that many words will be lost, and even shook my head, just admiring it in my heart. The old man laughed and said, your kid is really real. The knights of the rivers and lakes who see the little girl every day at the entrance of the villa are like crucian carp who cross the river.

After a while, we drank a pot of wine. The old man asked if he could play chess? I have a little understanding. The old man guessed it was a skill and played chess against me. I saw that the old man’s chess skills were not very good, similar to the old Liu of the warehouse management department, but I deliberately made friends to see if I could get some useful information, so I didn’t use my best. After four sets, there was a tie.

The sky is getting darker, and the old man said that this is the end of today and come back tomorrow!

When I returned to the Jiangnan office, Liu Qingfeng asked me how I was progressing. I smiled and shook my head. In the evening, Jiang Chong invited some martial arts people in the local area. What is it? Song Chengqing, the master of the waterway, Sui Donglaizhi, etc. They are some masters of rank five and six.

Taking advantage of the toast during the banquet, Jiang Chong suggested that when he returned to Beijing, he could consider setting up a branch in Jiangnan after discussing with the master, so that Jiangnan Road and Shandong Road would be connected together, and the layout of the Central Plains Escort Agency could continue to go south. I had something in my mind, so I perfunctorily said that when I returned to the capital, I would report Director Jiang's thoughts to the master.

After the banquet, Jiang Chong said that since everyone is getting together, I don’t want to be a hostess this night, so please come to the 18th of Cloud Gate. I heard that a new beauty has recently arrived. She looks good and she is still a young child. Join in the fun

I woke up immediately, and quickly refused. Then Jiang Nan swiped Song Chengqing's arm around my shoulder. Brothers won't be stage fright, right

I'll go as soon as I say, why can't I be afraid of it
