China has been a state of etiquette since ancient times, governing the world with benevolence and filial piety, throughout the dynasties, there is the department of the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Rites is often juxtaposed with some real power departments such as the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Officials, which shows the importance of the Ministry of Rites.

Therefore, in Chinese tradition, etiquette and education are often very important, and traditional Chinese medicine is traditional Chinese medicine, so in the apricot forest world, the rules have always been relatively strict. Up to now, only the apricot forest world and the martial arts world still retain some traditional Chinese rules and etiquette.

As one of the four great families in the apricot forest world, the Zhang family has lasted for a hundred years, and it also attaches great importance to etiquette and rules.

Lin Yuan followed Zhang Yiqing to get out of the car at the door of Zhang's house, Zhang's house had already opened the door, the steps at the door were very wet, it was obvious that the water had just been sprinkled, the water was sprinkled, and the main gate was wide open.

The Zhang family lives in an old-fashioned courtyard, the courtyard has been renovated, it looks very good, Lin Yuan got out of the car, looked at the wide open main entrance and the wet steps in front of the door, and couldn't help but smile slightly, although he didn't care about many rules, but it didn't mean that he didn't understand, the Zhang family was so excited, it could be seen that he attached great importance to him.

"Lin Yuan, your Lin family is also regarded as the queen of the imperial doctor, although the people are not prosperous, but it is also a good match with our Zhang family, you came to the door today, the old man attaches great importance to it." Zhang Yiqing smiled and said to Lin Yuan.

"Old man Zhang is too polite, it's just a visit after the end of school, it's not worth it." Lin Yuan hurriedly said.

"Yes, your grandfather is no longer here, and your father is not studying medicine, so you can be regarded as the head of your Lin family." Zhang Yiqing said with a smile, and as he spoke, he made a gesture of invitation at the same time: "Lin Yuan, please." ”

Lin Yuan smiled slightly, and was not polite, and stepped up the steps, Zhang Yiqing had already made it very clear, today he Lin Yuan represented not only himself, but also their Lin family, so Lin Yuan could not be discouraged.

Chinese have a view of the door since ancient times, and also regard the inheritance of the family very seriously, now many rural areas still have the idea of patriarchy, nothing more than that the boy can pass on the lineage, the Zhang family is the Xinglin family, this is more important than the average family, although the Lin family is not prosperous, but the inheritance has not been broken.

Zhang Yiqing kept inviting Lin Yuan to the main hall, asked Lin Yuan to sit down on the first chair on the right hand side of the main hall, and then ordered someone to serve tea, while he sat down on the opposite side.

The main hall of the Zhang family is a very formal layout, entering the main entrance is facing a table of eight immortals, there is a chair on each side of the table of eight immortals, and there are two chairs and a coffee table on the opposite side of the table of eight immortals, which is also the layout of the main hall of the ancient Chinese family.

The two chairs on the edge of the Eight Immortals table in the center are often the head of the family or the eldest elder, ordinary people are not qualified to sit down, the first two opposite chairs on the left are also the host's house, the right is the guest, and the first chair on the right is often the most distinguished guest.

"Lin Yuan, drink tea first, the old man will be here soon." When the tea came up, Zhang Yiqing sat down with a gesture of invitation to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan picked up the teacup, gently touched the tea foam on the tea with the tea lid, and then signaled to Zhang Yiqing, and then gently took a sip and praised: "Good tea, the best Tieguanyin, the spring water of Yuquan Mountain is still used, it is fragrant and sweet." ”

"Hehe, good tea naturally needs to be tasted by people who understand tea." Zhang Yiqing smiled, and paid more attention to Lin Yuan in his heart.

To put it bluntly, the Zhang family put on such a big battle today, on the one hand, it can be regarded as respecting Lin Yuan, in order to speak well when talking later, and secondly, it is also to be exquisite to Lin Yuan.

There are not many people who understand these rules now, Lin Yuan is young, if there is anything to cross from just entering the door to now, it will definitely be very embarrassing.

However, Lin Yuan has been very careful in his words and deeds since he got off the car from the beginning, and there is no rudeness, it is obvious that Lin Yuan is very clear about these rules, the more this is the case, the more Zhang Yiqing feels that Lin Yuan is more difficult to deal with.

Don't underestimate these things, although many people don't know these rules now, but in China, the really sophisticated family still attaches great importance to it, the bigger the family, the more identity is the more concerned about these things, sometimes a small offense is an insult to the master's family.

Why are nouveau riche buns always on the table, sometimes it's not just money, but these rules, so even if some people don't understand it at first, they will integrate and learn after they have money, why, just to better integrate into the upper circle.

Society is a society of people and people, some things are not a question of whether you like it or not, the trend is very much the pursuit of people, if you can't fit in, you naturally can't enter this circle, then you are not qualified to argue with some people.

Although Lin Yuan's net worth is not as good as the Zhang family, he has a background and knows these things well, so when he deals with some upper-class society or big wealthy families, he will not rashly offend the other party, nor will he be despised by the other party, so that Lin Yuan will be more able to integrate into this circle and enter the upper class society more easily.

After drinking a cup of tea, someone on the side stepped forward to add water, and when Lin Yuan's teacup was filled with water, Zhang Zhengyue also happened to help an old man walk in, the old man was Zhang Yuanqing.

Zhang Zhengyue has been helping Zhang Yuanqing to sit down on the chair next to the table of the Eight Immortals, and he has only just arrived at Zhang Yiqing's head, at the same time, Zhang Chenqing, Zhang Lianyu and several other Zhang family members also entered the hall, and when Zhang Zhengyue helped Zhang Yuanqing enter the door, Lin Yuan had already gotten up to show his respect for Zhang Yuanqing.

Except for Zhang Yuanqing, who sat on the main seat at the table of the Eight Immortals, the other people sat opposite Lin Yuan, Zhang Lianyu was a junior, only standing, although Lin Yuan was also a junior, but as Zhang Yiqing said, Lin Yuan was the head of the Lin family, representing the Lin family, and Lin Yuan was also a guest, which was not the same.

After a group of people sat down, Zhang Yuanqing looked at Lin Yuan and looked at Lin Yuan.

"I've seen Old Man Zhang." Lin Yuan hurriedly saluted, and said very politely.

"Sit down." Zhang Yuanqing smiled at Lin Yuan, and asked Lin Yuan to sit down again: "I knew your grandfather Lin Yizhi when I was young, but I never met, and now I have no regrets to see you, our Zhang family and your Lin family were both imperial doctors of the Qing court back then, although there are some contradictions, but the descendants of our two families can meet after a hundred years, which can be regarded as a kind of fate." ”

"What Old Man Zhang said is very true." Lin Yuan said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "When my grandfather was alive, he also mentioned you many times, Old Man Zhang, saying that you are a benevolent doctor and a great doctor. ”

"Hehe, your grandfather praised it." Zhang Yuanqing smiled slightly and said: "There is actually nothing else to invite you to come today, one is to meet the descendants of the Lin family, and the other is to meet the young divine doctor who has been in the limelight recently." ”

"Old Man Zhang praised it falsely, I would never dare to be a miracle doctor." Lin Yuan hurriedly said.

"Hehe, I used to think that the rumors outside were a bit exaggerated, but now that I have met the real person, I feel that the rumors outside are actually a little untrue, and you are better than the rumors outside." Zhang Yuan Qingdao.

Lin Yuan didn't say anything, and his face was not shocked.

Zhang Yuanqing looked at Lin Yuan's face, and sighed slightly in his heart, judging from Lin Yuan's appearance at this time, Lin Yuan is indeed stronger than his grandson Zhang Lianyu, young, not arrogant or impatient, modest and calm, such a young man is indeed rare.

At this time, it was also Lin Yuan, if Zhang Lianyu was replaced, he might have already been fluttering in the face of the praise of a respected Chinese medicine master.

Zhang Yuanqing and Lin Yuan pulled a few words of homely routine, and then they got to the point: "Back then, the Qing court's Danfang Immortal Gu beat the old Erdan, and our Zhang family and your Lin family jointly kept it, and later your ancestor Lin Younian took away half of the Danfang, and the other half of the Danfang was also collected by our Zhang family. ”

"What you always say is very true, but people have selfish intentions, this Danfang is more in demand than me at the moment, as the so-called strange goods can live, my conditions must be clear to Mr. Zhang." Lin Yuandao.

Zhang Yuanqing smiled slightly, Lin Yuan was really not easy to get along with, he was not impressed by his righteousness at all, and he didn't give him face as an old guy.

"I know your conditions, but do you think I'll say yes?" Zhang Yuanqing looked at Lin Yuan with a smile and said, "I'm already eighty years old, even if I have this Danfang, how many more years can I live, three years or five years?" ”

"Old man, if you have anything to say, you don't have to beat around the bush." Lin Yuandao.

"It is impossible for me to break the marriage contract with the Song family, I can promise you that I will not ask the Song family to complete the marriage within two years." Zhang Yuan Qingdao.

"Grandpa" Zhang Lianyu was in a hurry when he heard this, two years, how can this be, this time he still plans to do his best to marry Song Xiaomeng, so as to humiliate Lin Yuan, two years, although he is only thirty-one years old after two years, but many things can happen in two years, in case Lin Yuan and Song Xiaomeng can't help but spark and steal the forbidden fruit, even if he marries Song Xiaomeng, he will only be a green hat king.

"Shut up."

Zhang Zhengyue turned around and let out a low shout, and Zhang Lianyu hurriedly shut up.

Lin Yuan smiled on his face, just looked at Zhang Yuanqing, and didn't rush to speak, this condition is his bottom line, but he can't expose the bottom line so lightly.

Seeing that Lin Yuan was silent, Zhang Yuanqing smiled slightly and continued: "And I will also give you a chance. ”

"What chance?" Lin Yuan asked.

"I don't know if you've heard of the five-year Xinglin Mountaineering Club?" Zhang Yuanqing asked.

"Grandpa" Hearing this, Zhang Lianyu shouted again, Zhang Yuanqing looked at it, and Zhang Lianyu hurriedly shut up.

"Apricot Forest Mountaineering Club?" Lin Yuan was stunned, he really hadn't heard of this.

"The Xinglin Mountaineering Club, one pass and one mountain high, the next time should be a year later, when the Xinglin Mountaineering Club is better than Lian Yu, I will promise to dissolve the marriage contract with the Song family." Zhang Yuan Qingdao.

"What will be the rules for this apricot forest mountaineering?" Lin Yuan asked.

"Hehe, you have to know what the rules are, and not everyone is qualified to participate in this Xinglin Mountaineering Club, so let's talk about it when you have this qualification." Zhang Yuan smiled lightly, stretched out his hand and picked up the teacup on the side, this is the send-off.
