Chapter 190: Courtyard Conversation
In the past, visitors in this kind of compound were very particular about the arc of the door.
Push open a little and let people in, this is the average ordinary person, unless there is goods to be delivered, the back door really can't get in, so I went to the front door.
The greater the arc of the push, the greater the family's respect for the guests.
And the double doors are wide open, which means that the family is going to celebrate the holidays, or there is a big event in the family, and there is a hospitality.
Ye Cheng glanced at the old man who opened the door, he looked like he was in his seventies, with white hair, but he straightened his body and his face was red.
"I thought the footsteps just now were a strong man about forty years old, but I didn't expect this person to be so strong at this age, it seems that he is also a practitioner. This thought flashed through Ye Cheng's heart.
Ye Cheng came in from the gate, looked at everything here, and a certain point in his heart was suddenly touched.
Not that it was familiar, but it was a feeling that made him feel hundreds of years ago.
However, Yin Lin is already familiar with the road and is accustomed to it, and does not care about the landscape, potted plants, and arrangement here.
Ye Cheng stared at everything here, admiring it as he walked, slightly distracted.
In the courtyard, two rows of plane trees are verdant, and the trees are spaced at orderly intervals, and various famous flowers are planted.
On each side of the courtyard are two small stone tables and four small stone benches, some of which are placed with chessboards, some with fresh fruits, and some with a book.
In one of the corners of the place, there was a small gazebo, with its long and curved vines winding upwards, which seemed to have been trimmed, covering the whole pavilion and the four pillars of the pavilion. There is also a swing next to the gazebo.
There are two big red lanterns hanging outside the main hall, and under the eaves of the side hall and the side room, there are also small lanterns hanging one by one, and inside are candles, emitting a dense light.
"The courtyard of the cicadas in the daytime, people are tired and lazy and shake the fan. Xiaojing writes Xiaoxiang, self-reliant. ”
Ye Cheng blurted out, he remembered, he used to live in such a pleasant scenery and comfortable deep forest mansion, but that place was later blown up by a shell in the war.
"Outside the curtain of flowers and double swallows, there are people under the curtain to see together, the treasure seal is dismantled from the official yellow, and the incense is burned. ”
Ye Cheng's expression was slightly stunned, and when he looked for the sound, a woman actually came out in Hanfu, which surprised Ye Cheng even more, wondering if he had gone to the wrong place, or had passed through the times.
"Mr. Ye is so elegant. The woman smiled and said.
When Yin Lin saw it, she hurriedly ran up, pulled her up and down, and said, "Wanru, are you okay?" ”
Zhao Wanru smiled and said, "I'm very safe here, what's the matter." ”
Yin Lin nodded happily, looked at her clothes again, and said, "What are you doing with your clothes, isn't it hot, it's summer." ”
Zhao Wanru was a little embarrassed and said: "When I came back from the crew, I didn't dare to move anything when I received your call, and I didn't even go to change my clothes, for fear that you would complain about me again." ”
Yin Lin naughtily reached out and hooked the tip of Zhao Wanru's small nose and said, "You are really good, reward you with a big barbecue." ”
Zhao Wanru stroked her lips and said with a happy smile: "Don't be kidding, my agent won't let me eat, look at my face now." ”
Ye Cheng and Yin Lin both moved their eyes to her face, at first glance it was nothing, but under the illumination of the candlelight, the skin was a little wrinkled, plus the previous acne marks had regrown, Zhao Wanru looked like she was in her thirties.
"You won't stay up late and be so old and haggard!" Yin Lin exclaimed.
Zhao Wanru shook her head slightly, and then looked at Ye Cheng, her legs were slightly bent, her hands were on the side of her waist, and she said softly: "Wanru thank Mr. again for saving his life." ”
Ye Cheng frowned, modern people make such etiquette, he doesn't want to accept it, because modern people only know such etiquette actions, but they don't know the connotation of culture.
"What Mr. just read is Lu You's poem. Zhao Wanru said.
Ye Cheng nodded and said indifferently: "It seems that you also have some research on poetry." ”
"In the past, the family was strictly controlled, and Tang and Song poems were impregnated. ”
Ye Cheng enjoyed the beautiful scenery just now, and his mood had been relieved a lot, but now that he remembered the previous incident, he lost his mood in an instant, and said flatly: "Come into the house and say, you are like this, it is not good to catch a cold." ”
Zhao Wanru's delicate body trembled slightly, it was obvious that every woman was very concerned about her appearance, and now that she had become like this, anyone who stood in her position would not feel good.
Yin Lin could feel Zhao Wanru's heart, so she took Yin Lin's arm and nodded to her, as if she was cheering her on, and entered the house with her.
Entering the main hall, Ye Cheng found that the furniture and house decoration here were all designed hundreds of years ago, Ye Cheng's heart was a little surprised, the corners of his mouth curved a little arc, and asked: "I am very curious about who Miss Zhao's ancestors are, and what is going on in this mansion, such a private house is rare now, especially such an original display, and there is no meaning of plagiarism." ”
After Ye Cheng finished speaking, he suddenly regretted a little, he entered this room, feeling that he had really returned to hundreds of years ago, and even his words became like this.
Zhao Wanru didn't have any change in expression, and said leisurely: "My ancestor Zhao Yi moved here in his later years and spread his leaves. ”
Ye Cheng nodded, he had heard of such a person, he had also read a lot of poems written by Zhao Yi at that time.
Yin Lin shuddered, obviously a little uncomfortable with the tone and way of speaking to the two, and then said, "Uncles, let's talk here for a while, do you want to stay outside?"
In this main hall, there are still four bodyguards, two of whom were hired by the Zhao family, and two were hired by Zhao Wanru's brokerage company, and Yin Lin mainly said to the two bodyguards of the Zhao family.
These four bodyguards obviously gave Yin Lin a big face, also because in this Zhao family, there will be no danger, except for this main hall, there are people everywhere to protect it.
"Hey, I'm tired. ”
After the two bodyguards of the Zhao family left, Zhao Wanru was relieved and sat on the chair and sighed.
Ye Cheng frowned, he thought that Zhao Wanru was such a beautiful picture, after all, after all, after a famous family.
"Don't see outside, the Zhao family used to have a lot of rules, but now it's better. Zhao Wanru said slightly apologetically.
Ye Cheng didn't care either, and said, "Someone wants to ask you." ”
Zhao Wanru asked: "Who? I don't know too many people, and they are all agents negotiating with the outside." ”
Ye Cheng also sat on the chair and said calmly, "Zhao Wanting." ”
Zhao Wanru's eyes immediately widened, she sat for a long time, and then stretched out her hand to point at Ye Cheng, trembling and said, "What are you asking?"
