Chapter 4 Viewing the Ancient Scenery Entering the General's Mansion for the First Time

Jiang Linxi was like a dream, and followed Shen Linglang into the store in a daze, the dim and dim lights illuminated the ancient furniture and decorations in the store, without a little modern atmosphere. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

After dinner, Shen Linglang accompanied Jiang Linxi to follow the shopkeeper to Jiang Linxi's guest room.

The room was about the same as the old room on TV, classic and clean.

"Miss Jiang, how about this room, if it doesn't work, let the store change it." Shen Linglang asked.

"This is good, no trouble." Jiang Linxi said.

"Little Er, go get a pot of water and snacks." Shen Linglang said.

"Don't bother, didn't you just eat?" Jiang Linxi said.

"The night is long, I'm afraid that the girl will be hungry and thirsty at night and have no food to satisfy her hunger, so prepare some convenience." Shen Linglang said.

"Oh, thank you." Jiang Linxi asked for a moment: "The person who heard you just now called you a general, you are really a general." Then I'll call you General Shen from now on. Jiang Linxi said.

"You're welcome, you are our guest here, and it will be a long time for us to deal with each other in the future, just call Shen Linglang by the name below." Shen Linglang said.

As he spoke, the shopkeeper came upstairs with water and snacks: "Guest officer, what else do you have to order?" ”

"Oh, it's okay, you go get busy." turned around and said to Jiang Linxi: "Everything is ready, the girl is okay and rest early." I'm right next door, you can just call me if there's something. Shen Linglang said.

"Well, okay, don't call me girl in the future, just call me Lin Xi." Jiang Linxi said.

"Well, okay, then I'll go, Miss Lin Xi, you can rest." As he spoke, he closed the door and walked out of the room.

Jiang Linxi recalled all these things that happened today, as if he was in a dream. The fatigue along the way made Jiang Linxi slowly fall asleep.

A pleasant birdsong woke Jiang Linxi from his sleep. When I looked up at my watch, it was seven o'clock in the morning.

Jiang Linxi rolled over and got out of bed, pushed open the window, the air was so good, and a smell of earth came to his face.

Jiang Linxi took two deep breaths of air, turned around and walked out of the guest room, pushed open the door and saw Shen Linglang standing in the corridor.

"General Shen, why are you standing here?" Jiang Linxi asked.

"Oh, Miss Lin Xi, you're awake, I'm here waiting for you to wake up for breakfast." Shen Linglang said.

"Oh, excuse me, why didn't you wake me up?" Jiang Linxi said.

"I knew that the girl was tired from the road yesterday, so I didn't call you." Shen Linglang said.

"I'm so embarrassed, let's go." Jiang Linxi said.

After breakfast, a few people walked out of the hotel, according to Shen Linglang's instructions: one person and one horse, Shen Linglang and Jiang Linxi rode together.

Jiang Linxi had never ridden a horse before, and the fear of riding a horse at the beginning far outweighed the freshness of riding. Later, I felt that I was safe in Shen Linglang's gentle arms, and my body and mind slowly relaxed, enjoying the fun of riding a horse while enjoying the scenery of this foreign place.

Bridges, flowing water, woods, birdsong, fields, villages...... Although these are all seen in the world where I have lived in the past, it is not surprising, but with these ancient costumes and ancient characters here, it makes people feel a different flavor.

Slowly arrived at a crowded place, as if entering a small town, people and cars came and went, business was endless, and a prosperous scene. Jiang Linxi found that the pedestrians on the road, regardless of men, women, children, and all walks of life, were very polite, polite, and orderly.

"General Ling Lang, there's a shiny thing there." Jiang Linxi pointed to a white and shiny thing on the ground less than three meters in front of him, and turned back to Shen Shen Linglang and said.

"Oh, that's someone else's lost silver," Shen Linglang said, after a glance.

"Silver? Wait a minute, I'll pick it up, I haven't seen the silver yet," Jiang Linxi said.

"Hey, this can't be picked up, this is someone else's drop, the owner will come back to look for it in a while, we picked it up and the owner came back and couldn't find it." Shen Linglang stopped Jiang Linxi and said with a smile.

"Don't be funny, even if we don't pick it up, others will also pick it up, and the owner won't be able to find the lost silver when he comes back. What are you afraid of, we are not stealing. Jiang Linxi said.

"Oh? yes, okay, let's not go for now, stop here for the time being, and see if anyone else has picked it up. Shen Linglang laughed heartily twice, stopped the horse, stood in place and looked at Jiang Linxi with a smile.

Now Jiang Linxi noticed that there were many people passing by the silver, men, women, old and young, but they didn't pick up this piece of silver.

Jiang Linxi turned around and asked Shen Linglang: "Is the silver real?" ”

One sentence amused Shen Linglang again: "Haha, of course the silver is real." ”

"Then after so many people, why don't they pick it up?" Jiang Linxi looked at Shen Linglang curiously and asked.

At this time, Shen Linglang shook the reins and the horse continued to move forward: Why don't people pick up silver, right? ”

"Hmm." Jiang Linxi turned his head and glanced at Shen Linglang and nodded.

Shen Linglang walked forward with Jiang Linxi and said, "This is our natural moral norm here, and it is also the system. When the money is dropped, everyone doesn't pick it up, and after a long time, an unwritten rule is naturally formed, so no one picks it up, so that whoever loses something will be easy to find when they come back. ”

"This seems to be what we used to say in the book when we were in school, 'the road is not left behind'! I didn't expect to experience it with you. After listening to Shen Linglang's words, Jiang Linxi said with feeling.

"Hehe, it seems that there is such an idiom, no matter what it is, after all, such a social atmosphere is beneficial to the people, right?" Shen Linglang smiled.

"Uh-huh." Talking all the way, they waited through the town and came to the main road.

In this way, they walked the main road, through the town, and walked quickly and slowly towards home.

When there were few people on the main road, they quickened their pace and let their horses run, and when they passed through the village town, they slowed down and walked slowly through the town. In this way, the day passed, and in the afternoon several people came to a seemingly large city.

It was a very prosperous city, called Longyu City, with clean streets, scattered shops, and orderly people and cars, and in the evening they arrived in front of a mansion.

"General, you're back!" The guard guarding the door took the reins and things from Shen Linglang's hand.

Shen Linglang agreed: "Ah, I'm back; This is Miss Lin Xi, she will live at home in the future, you all come to see him, and take care of it in the future. ”

"Yes, General! Hello Miss Lin Xi! The guards saluted.

"Miss Lin Xi! Let's go inside! Shen Linglang accompanied Jiang Linxi into the General's Mansion.

Entering the gate of the general's mansion, it is a large courtyard of the three-entry type, the courtyard is a quadrangle-style ancient building, red walls and green tiles, the corridor is roundabout, the big brick ground, the yard is planted with bamboo and flowers, the north room is a hall, the hall is a big courtyard, the pavilion corridor, the flowers and birds are hanging, the main house is the north house, the east and west sides are the wing rooms and the moon gate, looking from the moon gate, there seems to be a small courtyard that rises.

"Miss Lin Xi, please!" Shen Linglang led Jiang Linxi into the north house in the middle courtyard, there is a hall in the north house, which is very spacious, with many chairs and coffee tables, and the settings in the house are all ancient.

"Girl, sit down here and rest for a while, and I'll go see my father and mother." Shen Linglang led Jiang Linxi to sit on a comfortable chair and said.

"yes, okay." Jiang Linxi sat down and looked at the living room.

"Come on, pour tea for Miss Lin Xi." Shen Linglang commanded.

A maid came in with a cup of tea and put it on Jiang Linxi's table: "Girl, please use tea." Seeing Jiang Linxi, the maid looked at it curiously and quietly and walked out.

"Miss Lin Xi, wait a while, I'll come when I go." Shen Linglang said.

"Hmmm! Good! Please! Jiang Linxi stood up and watched Shen Linglang bypass the screen next to him and enter the room inside.

Jiang Linxi took a sip of water from the teacup, looking at the grandeur of this mansion, Shen Linglang should not be lying, he should be a person with status, and he should be able to help me find a home in the future.

Thinking like this, not long after, Shen Linglang accompanied the three kind-hearted middle-aged and elderly people into the hall, followed by two maids.

"Miss Lin Xi, my grandmother and parents are here." Shen Linglang said to Jiang Linxi with a slight smile.

Hearing that Shen Linglang's grandmother and parents were here, Jiang Linxi hurriedly stood up. stepped forward to greet them one by one: "Hello grandma!" Hello uncle and aunt! ”

The three old men looked Jiang Linxi, a visitor from outside the mountain, and Shen Linglang's grandmother said: "The girl's situation Lang'er has told us, Miss Jiang, don't worry, you can live here with peace of mind in the future, although my family is not rich, but you don't have to worry about eating and drinking, you can take care of each other, and we will slowly think of a way to send you home in the future!" ”

"Thank you, grandma, I've come to the house to cause trouble for everyone." Jiang Linxi said.

Grandma Shen Linglang said with a smile: "Hey, it's not troublesome, many people are lively, you can live here with peace of mind in the future, this is your home, don't see outside." ”

Shen Linglang's parents also echoed.

"Thank you, grandma, uncle, aunt for taking you in." Jiang Linxi said and bowed deeply.

As he spoke, Jiang Linxi also looked at Shen Linglang's parents and grandmother by the way: Grandma is over seventy years old, kind and kind-eyed, but her eyes are always tearful. I kept trying to wipe it with a handkerchief.

Shen Linglang's father was in his fifties, he looked very strong, tall, and a little fat, but his eyes were bright, and his demeanor was not an ordinary person. Shen Linglang's mother is no more than fifty years old, although she is a half-old, she still has charm, a plump body, and a dignified face.

Shen Linglang's father's name is Shen Zhong, and he is a military general under the emperor, and his mother Liu Yu is a husband and son at home.

"Cui'er, go and call Shen Wanyun and the second son, and everyone get to know each other." Shen Zhong commanded.

"Yes, sir!" The maid Ji Cui'er went out in response.

After a while, two teenagers, a man and a woman, came in successively: the man was in his twenties, 1.9 meters tall, thin, and handsome. The girl has the appearance of eighteen or nineteen, with high hair buns and oblique hairpins and sideburns. He must be more than 1.7 meters tall, with a beautiful face and a light body.

"Hello grandma! Father, mother Jian'an" The two of them came into the house and gave gifts to the three old men.

"Xuan'er, Yun'er, go and meet the new girl Jiang." Liu Yu said.

"Yes! Mother. The two of them said that, turned around and came to Jiang Linxi, as soon as the two of them entered the house, they saw that there was a beautiful woman in the house, and it must be her who her mother said.

Shen Linglang hurriedly stepped forward to introduce:

"Miss Lin Xi, this is my second brother Shen Lingxuan, and this is my little sister Shen Wanyun."

"Ling Xuan, Wanyun, this is Miss Lin Xi, she will live in our house in the future, Miss Lin Xi didn't grow up with us, she is not familiar with all aspects, everyone should take more care of her in the future."

"My name is Jiang Linxi, everyone will call me Lin Xi in the future." Jiang Linxi said.

"How old is Miss Lin Xi? Where did it come from? How is it such an outfit? After Shen Wanyun bowed, she looked Jiang Jiang Lin Xi up and down curiously and asked.

"I'm 21 years old, I'm from Haizhou City, and I work in an advertising agency." Jiang Linxi said.

"Oh, then you are two years older than me, the same age as my second brother, I should call you Sister Lin Xi." Shen Wanyun said.

"After walking such a long way, Miss Lin Xi must be hungry, so the housekeeper should start the meal earlier today," grandma ordered.

While speaking, everyone and Jiang Linxi came to the restaurant to sit down with the guests. This restaurant is so big, divided into two halls, each with two large dining tables.

At the dinner table, Jiang Linxi found that his grandmother had been testing her eyes with a handkerchief, knowing that her grandmother had bad eyes, and Jiang Linxi had spare eye drops in her bag, but she thought that today Shen Linglang said that she had picked the medicine of the good herb, and said that she was a newcomer, and she didn't know the situation, so she didn't dare to give it to her grandmother.

After dinner, Jiang Linxi was arranged to live in a small courtyard, and Mrs. sent her a maid Xiaocui. The small cross-courtyard is not too big, adjacent to the small cross-courtyard where Shen Wanyun lives, the house has three red brick and large tile houses, although it is not clear to see the scenery in the courtyard at night, but it is probably very good to see it by the light of the lantern. It's taller than an ordinary house outside, and it's neatly cleaned up.

"Miss Lin Xi, you will live in this courtyard in the future. All your daily life is temporarily waited by Xiao Trisi, it is late today, you will spend the night here, and tomorrow you will see where there is something that is not suitable and needed, and I will send someone to buy it for you. Shen Linglang looked at everything in the house and said.

"That's pretty good, thank you so much." Jiang Linxi said with a smile.

"Sister Lin Xi, since we are destined to meet together, we are a family, you are welcome, I will live in the courtyard where you are avoided. If you have something, just come to me. Shen Wanyun said.

"yes, okay." Seeing the sincerity of this family, Jiang Linxi didn't know what to say.

Sent Shen Linglang and Shen Wanyun away and returned to his cabin. I was used to living days with electricity outside, but when I came here at first glance, there was no electricity, and it was a little dark to live at night, and Jiang Linxi was really a little uncomfortable. Lying on the soft bed, thinking about the experience of this day, my eyes are as vivid as if I had been in a movie......

What the hell is this place, and why is it so strange? The story of "no road to spare" is very evocative. The story of Shen Linglang catching a bird is very amazing to Jiang Linxi! Everything he saw and heard on the street, all the scenes in the house, what puzzled Jiang Linxi the most was how those two people flying in the sky could fly in mid-air. The people here, everything here, are ancient, did I also travel through like a TV series? How else would you end up here? Thinking about it...... Slowly, Jiang Linxi unconsciously gradually fell asleep, after all, she was too tired to toss this day.
