Early in the morning of the second day, Situ Yan took the snow wolf and drove straight to the city gate from the dark night. Yesterday, I made an appointment with Duanmu Xuan to wait at the Shili Pavilion outside the city gate early in the morning.

"Master, the kung fu of my subordinates is not as good as that of the dark wind, I'm afraid that I won't be able to protect you along the way!" Dark Night looked at this god-like master with some worry, he is also a slave from a big family, no one has ever seen anyone, but he has never seen a person like his master, not only doing business abroad as a woman, but even the business of the shop he opened is surprisingly good. And his kung fu is unfathomable, even resourceful, and he is now more and more ignorant of his master.

"Your mouth is tight!" Situ Yan went out this time, and what she wanted was someone with a tight mouth. As for safety, with Duanmu Xuan following, it would be difficult for her to have an accident.

"But the master's safety is paramount, and his subordinates are really afraid of ......!" Before Dark Night finished speaking, Situ Yan interrupted him, "There are other people with you, you just have to catch the car!" In fact, with her temperament, no one wants to take it when she goes out this time, but she is afraid that Situ will be worried, so she has to take it into the dark night. Fortunately, this person is tight-mouthed and loyal, and he should not betray her easily. After all, one less person knows, and she is safer.

Seeing that the master didn't want to talk in the dark, he had to concentrate on catching the car. Before the mule cart reached the Shili Pavilion, he saw three people waiting there on horseback on the side of the road. Although Dark Night didn't know Duanmu Xuan, he only saw that this person had hit a horse and rushed towards him, so he knew that it was the person who accompanied him as the master said. Pull the reins and stop and wait for someone to come closer.

Duanmu Xuan saw Situ Yan's mule cart from a distance, and he was also very familiar with carrots. And Situ Yan didn't even tell Situ Jin about this trip, and she knew that she didn't want anyone to know. So he only brought two guards, Mo Feng and Mo Yu, to escort him.

"Yan'er!" Duanmu Xuan rode to the mule cart and whispered through the curtain.

Situ Yan stepped out of the car, dressed in white muslin men's clothes. It looks refreshed. "Brother Xuan, when I went out, my brother gave me a few more words, but I was tired of you waiting here for a long time!"

"It's me early!" Duanmu Xuanneng walked with Situ Yan, but he was very happy, he didn't pay attention to the time at all, and as soon as the city gate opened early in the morning, he took people out of the city on horseback and waited.

"I haven't had breakfast yet! I brought some homemade snacks and hot tea. Why don't you go to the car and eat some before you go! Situ Yan saw that although Duanmu Xuan was wearing a cloak, his eyebrows and eyes were slightly hairy, and he still saw the meaning of cold dew. At this time, it is the time of the cold spring. Although Duanmu Xuan is a person who practices martial arts, he can eat grains, and if he is not careful, he may become seriously ill, so it is better to be careful when he goes out.

"It's okay to eat while walking!" Duanmu Xuan felt Situ Yan's concern for him. Happy eyes narrowed. But I don't want to delay the trip because of myself.

"The young master is hopeless!" Mo Feng and Mo Yu glanced at each other. The OS in my heart is surprisingly consistent.

Situ Yan saw Duanmu Xuan's insistence, she also felt that this was very good, after all, it was not easy for her to go out for too long this time, otherwise Situ Jin would not be so good at talking next time.

"This is the two ink guards, and there are two workers to take care of them along the way!" Turning back to the mule cart, he took out two oiled paper packets from the cart and handed them to Mo Feng and Mo Yu. This makes people work hard, and they also have to make people fed. Otherwise, if there is something really going on, these people will not become soft-footed crabs.

"This is the duty of the subordinates, and I don't deserve Miss Situ's thanks!" The two of them were also hungry, but without the consent of the young master, they didn't dare to eat what Miss Situ made herself, looked up to see Duanmu Xuan together, and saw him nodding, Mo Feng took the paper bag carefully, but he didn't dare to eat it in front of the young master, so he put it in his arms first.

"Mofeng, we have a mouthful, Miss Situ opened a dim sum shop, but it is famous in the whole capital, when is there not a long queue at the door of the dim sum shop, and even everyone has a limited amount to buy, otherwise I am afraid that I may not be able to buy it even if I go to the queue?" Mo Yu's words are not an exaggeration, every shop in Situ Yan's shop has a very good business, but the face of the shop is not very big, so it did not attract the calculation of people with a heart.

"It's good to know what to do! The young master said that there should not be much discussion about Miss Situ! Mo Feng made a silent gesture and beat his horse to the mule cart to lead the way.

"I forgot!" Mo Yu glanced back at the mule cart and saw that the young master did not blame him, so he was relieved.

Duanmu Xuan in the car didn't have the heart to listen to the discussion of Mo Feng and Mo Yu, eating snacks made by his sweetheart, drinking his favorite tea, and the word "happiness" was written all over his face.

"Yan'er, you can eat some too!" Duanmu Xuan pinched a piece of dim sum and handed it to Situ Yan's mouth.

"I used it early in the morning!" She had breakfast with Situ Jin before going out. And she's not a child, so she doesn't need to be fed.

The three-day journey is not long, but it is not short, Duanmu Xuan and Situ Yan enjoy the scenery and talk about love, but they have a very comfortable time! As early as when she left Henan County, Situ Yan no longer took a car, but rode a horse like Duanmu Xuan, she didn't like to stuff herself in a mule cart, so she asked Duanmu Xuan about the basic situation of Heyang County while walking.

Heyang County is only an inferior county, similar to the county seat of Xinchang where Situ Yan was before, not to mention the vast and sparsely populated area, and even mostly hilly areas. Such a place is as Situ Yan wishes.

"Brother Xuan, have a heart! I love this place, I wonder if the place you're looking for is far from here? ”

"It's not far, but the road is not very easy to walk, the horse riding is acceptable, I'm afraid this mule cart can't get in!" Duanmu Xuan pointed to a mountain in the distance on the right hand, and he could see that the mountain was not very high, about 5 or 600 meters, not to mention the potholes on the wasteland, and there were a lot of trees, but it was really not easy to drive.

"In the dark night, you just stay here and watch the car!" Situ Yan commanded, and then followed Duanmu Xuan and walked inside.

At the foot of the mountain, Duanmu Xuan stayed in ink to watch the horses, and took the ink wind to accompany Situ Yan to climb the mountain. Although there is no road on the mountain, several people are martial arts practitioners, which does not affect their speed.

The top of the mountain is more open than imagined, when Situ Yan first climbed to the top, he had a trace of spring outing, looking down along the top of the mountain, a hollow valley came into view, "What a good place in the world!" "The valley is visually thousands of acres, surrounded by mountains, and there is even a pool of water in the valley. The sunlight reflects on the surface of the lake, like a natural mirror, reflecting the shadows of the mountains and trees. It adds a touch of flair.

"Okay, I like this place!" Situ Yan quickly sketched out the blueprint of a mountain villa in her mind, even the details. Don't let it go. He stood for a quarter of an hour without saying a word.

"Young master, is Miss Situ evil? Nothing has been said except for the word 'good'? Mo Feng looked at Situ Yan who was contemplative, a little curious.

"Yan'er should be thinking about things, just wait! Don't make a noise with her! "It's still Duanmu Xuan who knows Situ Yan better.

After standing for another quarter of an hour, Situ Yan woke up from her contemplation, "I was addicted to the beautiful scenery for a while. I'm so tired that Brother Xuan is blowing the wind on the top of this mountain! ”

"Traveling with beauty, I don't think this mountain breeze is cool and the breeze is blowing. It's a bit of fun! "As long as he can accompany Situ Yan, Duanmu Xuan doesn't feel that it is hard, rather than returning to Beijing as soon as possible to face those deceitful people, it is better to stay in such a place for the rest of his life.

"Brother Xuan. I want to buy the mountains around me and this valley. I don't know how much money I need? Situ Yan would not accept such warm and ambiguous words, so she found a different word.

Duanmu Xuan didn't care, "There are some barren mountains and wastelands all around, and there is not even a village, so I don't need too much silver money!" Since Yan'er likes it, why don't we go to Heyang County and ask? Duanmu Xuan originally planned that if Situ Yan liked it, he would buy this piece of land and give it to Situ Yan. But I'm afraid of provoking Situ Yan's dislike. So when the words came to his lips, he changed the meaning. Anyway, there is him, the son of the country's mansion, following. He didn't believe that Heyang County dared to ask for a price. Unless he's impatient.

Sure enough, as Duanmu Xuan expected, he didn't need to come forward with Situ Yan at all, Mo Feng's Guogong Mansion guard token was done. The county magistrate of Heyang County even personally led people to measure the land, and the surrounding barren mountains and valleys, and the five hundred acres of wasteland that connected the post road to the foot of the mountain, only used 1,000 taels in total, and it was under Situ Yan's name.

According to Situ Yan's previous estimate, such a large piece of land, to say the least, will cost eighteen thousand taels, but she didn't expect a guard token from the Guogong Mansion to give her a nine-percent discount. She now regrets that she didn't accept Duanmu Xuan's iron-blooded order.

"To be able to buy such a cheap land, Yan'er thanks Brother Xuan for helping. This place has an extraordinary meaning to me, so this affection should be returned, I don't know if Brother Xuan has what he wants, as long as it is within my ability, I will not refuse! "The place that Situ Yan chose was not a small mountain villa just for people to settle down, so she didn't want to owe Duan Muxuan this favor.

"I really have a wish, but I'm afraid that Yan'er will be angry if I say it?" Duanmu Xuan lacks nothing, what he lacks the most is a daughter-in-law, but he will not take the liberty to make such a request to Situ Yan, even if he does, Situ Yan will not be able to agree.

"As long as I can do it!" Situ Yan also knew what Duanmu Xuan was thinking, anyway, she had a premise, if Duanmu Xuan's request was too much, she could refuse on the grounds that she was powerless.

"Yan'er's Zhuangzi is built, can you leave a yard for me?" Duanmu Xuan's purpose couldn't be more obvious, even if Situ Yan didn't agree to his proposal, he would die by her side, even if he watched it from a distance.

"Good!" Situ Yan felt that the Zhuangzi she wanted to build was very large, and it was not difficult to leave a yard, and she would leave a yard for Li Dalang and them, anyway, as long as it was someone she cared about, she would arrange it for them.

Duanmu Xuan didn't expect Situ Yan to agree so quickly, without even a trace of hesitation. I can't help but be a little excited, to know that a woman can be willing to give a man and leave a house at home, which is by no means an ordinary relationship.

Situ Yan still has modern thinking in her bones, she forgot that this was in ancient times, and this move was not only a trivial matter in one courtyard and one house. even inadvertently hinted at Duanmu Xuan that she had already accepted him.

No wonder not only Duanmu Xuan, but even Mo Feng opened his mouth in surprise, looking frightened, and even the dark night and Mo Yu who were guarding at the door also stared, and there was no reaction for a while.

Fortunately, at this time, Situ Yan was drinking tea with her head down, and she didn't notice the strangeness of Duanmu Xuan and Mo Feng, otherwise she would have blushed and found a place to sew for the rest of her life.

Duanmu Xuan calmed down his excited mood, he was happy, but he also understood that he couldn't judge that Situ Yan had accepted him because of a courtyard, at least in his opinion, although Situ Yan was closer to him than before, it had not yet reached the point of love between men and women.

"Thank you Yan'er for making it happen!" Duanmu Xuan's words made Mo Feng, who was stunned on the side, come back to his senses, and then he took a deep breath and exited the room.

"What's there to thank you for, it's just a yard! If you can't take it away and can't move it, as long as Brother Xuan doesn't regret it in the future! Situ Yan understands that this courtyard is said to be for Duanmu Xuan, but the land under his name is not his own. It's just a nice name.

Before she realized it, a yard had sold herself.

"No, there is no more precious thank you gift to me!" Duanmu Xuan had a throbbing feeling that he wanted to rush out of his mouth. But it also knows that if this layer of paper is pierced, it may not be a blessing for him. Now is the time, and he needs to be patient.

"Yan'er, I'm really curious, it's not difficult to understand if you buy a valley to build a farm, but why did you buy it together with the wasteland at the foot of the mountain, those five hundred acres of land don't seem to be crops, even if you plant pasture, it won't grow well?"

"Since I want to hide from the world, I just don't want outsiders to disturb me, but it is not easy to hide such a large area of Zhuangzi. I wanted to build a smaller Zhuangzi at the foot of the mountain, not only for the purpose of hospitality, but also to attract the attention of others, so that the Zhuangzi in the valley would not be easy to be discovered! To put it bluntly, it is a trick to give outsiders a feeling that there is only a small village with a barren mountain back, and it also saves people from being jealous and calculated.

"Great idea!" Duanmu Xuan is a soldier who uses soldiers, and these tricks are naturally easy to use.

"But if you only build a small village, this piece of land is too big?"

"In addition to building a village, we must also plant trees and pave roads!" In addition to Zhuangzi's trick, Situ Yan used trees as a natural barrier, so that even Zhuangzi could be hidden. She even thought of planting trees with the direction of the Five Elements Bagua Array. In short, she wants to build a real paradise.

"Yan'er is thoughtful, even I am a little tempted, I want to buy a piece of land to build a Zhuangzi!"

"Brother Xuan is still exempt, if there is suddenly such a large area of land in the Guogong Mansion, I am afraid that it will not take three days, and the emperor will send someone to keep an eye on it!" Duanmu Xuan and Situ Yan are different, Situ Yan is just a cloth cloth, at most he is a rich man, even if he buys a large piece of land and builds a Zhuangzi, he will not attract the attention of the emperor.

But Duanmu Xuan is different, every move of the Guogong Mansion is controlled by the royal family, and they can do whatever they want.

"Yan'er?" Duanmu Xuan was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that even his mother couldn't see this layer of stakes, and Situ Yan hit the nail on the head with a single word.

"Nothing surprising! I'm not a god, and I can't do everything as I expected. But at least what I have experienced, I am afraid that ordinary people may not experience it in their lifetime. So look at the long term than others, just be careful! ”

The two of them chatted and ate, stayed in Heyang County that night, and set off for Beijing early the next morning. Now that you have the land, it's time to start making detailed plans. Situ Yan wants to build the villa within this year. (To be continued......)
