It can't be said that Shu Chang did bad things with good intentions, but it is true that he scared everyone, fortunately, no one will care about him as a child, after all, people are sincerely welcome them as guests. Therefore, Xia Zewen, who can speak well, and Bai Xi, who has always been liked by the old man and the old lady, saw that the old man's face was not quite right, and wanted to get angry at Shu Chang, so they hurriedly ran to persuade them, and the old man asked them to say that they were happy, and this article would not be mentioned again.

Although Shu Chang was a little aggrieved, but because of the majesty of Old Man Shu and his uncle's aura, how aggrieved he was, he could only swallow it in his stomach, but fortunately, he was a person who could understand his mood in the summer, and after some careful enlightenment in the summer, he was not as sad as before, and told the staff what to do, what to prepare, and happily pulled Xia Xia and Bai Zhongqiu into the vestibule first.

It is a three-storey building, the first floor can accommodate at least 100 people dancing at the same time, and the second floor is all set up as a temporary lounge for guests, if the guests need to go up and take a break, or have a good business. Shujia attaches great importance to guests*, according to Bai Zhongqiu's previous science popularization and Shu Chang's introduction, the sound insulation of the lounge is very good, and there is no need to worry about the bad thing that the partition wall has ears.

Of course, there should still be precautions, if someone dares to play any tricks on the Shu family's territory, he must be prepared to bear very harsh consequences.

As for the third floor of this building, Bai Zhongqiu and Shu Chang kept silent about it at the same time, as if it was a forbidden place for the Shu family - in fact, it was not a forbidden place, but they had never gone up, to be precise, except for Old Man Shu, no one in the family knew what was done there, and the usual cleaning was also done by Old Man Shu himself, which shows how much the old man attached importance to that place.

Although the curiosity of the summer is also quite heavy, I also know that each family has its own secrets, which outsiders are not allowed to inquire about. Not only the Shu family, but also their Bai family and Xia family have secrets, but all the big families that have been inherited for more than a hundred years have more or less small stories and legends that cannot be told or passed on. Such a secret, if it is not told by the owner himself, it is better not to inquire, even if it is a friend with a good relationship, or even a lover or partner, you still have to pretend to be confused when you can pretend to be confused, so as not to touch the bottom line of others and cause unnecessary misunderstandings. Summer asked himself that he was a good boy who knew how to be polite, and he would not make such a low-level mistake, since people didn't want to say it clearly, he shouldn't ask him stubbornly.

Looking at this banquet hall building, Xia Xia had to sigh, the Shu family really deserves to be the richest and second to none wealthy family in the family circle, although their family is indeed very low-key and likes to make a lot of money in a muffled voice, that is also external, according to Shu Chang and Bai Zhongqiu's theory, what should be enjoyed by themselves, or should be enjoyed, so what is the purpose of working hard to earn money, not to make themselves and their families more comfortable. If you can make money and don't spend money, wouldn't you walk in the world in vain!

The ancestors of the Shu family probably thought so, so they made the home into a low-key luxury, look at the splendid banquet hall, look at the furnishings inside, although there are also modern artworks, but the number is very small, most of them are old antiques, and there is actually a rare Yuan blue and white porcelain. Summer doesn't have much research in this area, I don't know what the scientific name of this porcelain is, if he is asked to describe it, it is a large bowl of Yuan blue and white. Although he doesn't understand the knowledge of antiques, he can also see that this is a good thing, besides, if it is not genuine and boutique, Old Man Shu will never allow it to be placed in such a conspicuous position.

After reading these rare furnishings, I looked at the bright marble floor, the ancient mahogany furniture, and the crystal chandelier above my head, although many families like the style of combining Chinese and Western, but it is really not very much to be able to get along so well, and the Shu family is the best one I have seen in summer. As for the Bai family and the Xia family, they are all in the antique and nostalgic style, whether it is the decoration style or the furniture furnishings, they are all typical classical style, except for the necessary coal, water and electricity for life and the necessary network for communication, there is no longer a little modern element to be found.

It didn't take too much time to visit the vestibule, obviously, this is not the final destination, after everyone casually walked around, under the leadership of Shu Chang, accompanied the old man through a gate, and then through a sheep intestine path paved with rain stones, after passing through a moon gate to the most mysterious and reverie atrium of the entire Shu family's old house, this is the place they really want to visit.

In summer, the atrium is not so much an atrium as a unique garden of the Shu family, and unlike the luxurious atmosphere of the front courtyard and the antique atmosphere of the back garden, this is not a building - because it has no roof, and it is the largest part of the Shu family's old house. If he had to give it a name in summer, he would call it Shujia Garden.

Pavilions, small autumn flowing water, rockery fountains, should be part of the garden building, here are all complete, what is more commendable is that there are also planted a lot of precious plants and flowers, at a glance, as if in the royal garden in the south, and the front of the grand banquet hall has really become two different worlds.

However, it is a little regrettable to make the summer a little regrettable, the scenery is good, and the aura is sufficient enough, it is indeed the best place for cultivators to cultivate, but it lacks a trace of vitality, if you raise some small animals or something, you may be able to make this courtyard glow with due vitality.

"Little animal?" Shu Chang touched his chin, looked at Summer, and then at Bai Zhongqiu - at this time, the adults had already sat down in the pavilion on the rockery, tasting the newly listed Longjing, inquiring about the situation, and reminiscing about the old, and the three children were allowed to move freely, and Shu Chang took Bai Zhongqiu and Summer to walk around and enjoy the rare beauty. Now listening to what summer says, Shu Chang also feels that it is time to raise some small animals, otherwise it is really a waste of such a good scenery. "Actually, it's not that I haven't thought about raising some small animals or something, but it was because my uncle's health was not good, so I couldn't raise these things at home, for fear of infecting something. After the uncle passed away, a lot of things happened, and I didn't have time to do these things. When they finally got their hands free, the Jin family began to behave again. However, what kind of small animals should you raise? Kittens and dogs, my grandfather and I don't like it very much, and they don't match the garden very well. Other critters...... Well, I thought about it for a long time and didn't come up with it. ”

"Peacock!" Xia hugged Bai Zhongqiu's arm and rubbed it, "As soon as I enter this garden, I have such a feeling, it is a waste not to raise peacocks in such a good place." ”

"I've thought about it too, but we're in the north, and it's not easy for peacocks to survive. Moreover, peacocks are so precious that they should not be so easy to get. ”

"I have a way!" Summer patted her little chest, "but I can't tell you what the way to do it, wait for me to get home...... Well, Wanjiazhuang, I'll contact you later!" After speaking, Xia Xia also looked at Bai Zhongqiu, "Brother Xiaoqiu, it shouldn't matter if you do this, right?

"Well, don't worry!" Bai Zhongqiu reached out and touched his head, "The people in the family have very tight mouths, even if they raise a lion, they won't talk much." ”

"Ah, lion!" "Summer snapped her fingers, "what do we do if we have a little white lion?"

"The style of painting is wrong, dismissed!"

The three children walked the whole garden giggling, and by the time they climbed the pavilion on the rockery, the adults' conversation was coming to an end.

Old Man Shu saw the three children walking over hand in hand, stroked their long white beards, and beckoned to them with a smile, "Come, just talk about you, you will come back." ”

"Grandpa Shu, what do you say about us?" Xia Xia walked over with a smile and sat down with Bai Zhongqiu and Shu Chang in the seat deliberately left by the old man.

"Didn't the old man say it before?" Old Man Shu drank tea with a smile while holding a tea bowl, "I want to accept you and Xiaoqiu as apprentices, Xiao Chang's talent is not very good, and the others are just ordinary people. Among the three of us, the most talented is Ji Ji you, and Xiaoqiu is a little worse than you. Come, these two cups of tea belong to you and Xiaoqiu, and they are ready. ”

Xia Xia and Bai Zhongqiu are both smart people, and when they heard the old man say this, they quickly took the tea bowl, knelt on their knees, and said "Please drink tea from Master".

Old man Shu was very satisfied with their approach, took two cups of tea, drank them very happily, and then took out two red envelopes from his pockets and stuffed them into the hands of the two children.

"Okay, don't kneel, stand up!" Old Man Shu raised his hand and motioned for Xia Xia and Bai Zhongqiu to get up, "The rules inside the door are not so big, what kind of incense and bathing and the like, that's all superficial articles, whether there are any or the same." The Master once taught that as long as a cultivator has a heart for cultivation, as long as he is dedicated to goodness, it is enough, and nothing else matters. ”

"Is that all?" Xia Xia blinked, looked at Old Man Shu, then at Bai Zhongqiu and Xia, and then at the adults present, "Don't you need to make any other preparations?"

"Your master has already drunk your tea, what other preparations do you need?"

Summer's face is full of the words "I don't believe it", such an apprenticeship is too simple, could he sell himself so easily? .
