The old butler blinked, and suddenly there was a little more twist between his words:

"However, this son is not only a warrior in the army, but also has held important positions, I am afraid that there is a little arrogance. Therefore, the old slave dared to suggest that this time I would like to extend the invitation and go to the young master in person to show my sincerity, and I hope that the young master will approve it! ”

Xie Zuo nodded indifferently, and went in person, in his opinion, it was normal. Not to mention the invitation, if you can guarantee that the invasion of the bandits will be dealt with, even if you kneel and lick it, you can't consider it! As for the squire's self-indulgence, what is that? Anyway, I've never been!

Seeing Xie Zuo's agreement, the old housekeeper was overjoyed:

"That being the case, without further ado, the old slave immediately prepared gifts, and Young Master Lao went to the door in person. The family is now preparing for evacuation, many miscellaneous things, it is not appropriate to get out, please forgive the old slave for not being able to accompany the young master, so let Tsing Yi accompany him! ”

After speaking, he turned his head to Xie Qingyi, who was bored and playing with his fingers, and explained: "Qingyi, you accompany the young master and bring more people, neither fall into the Xie family's prestige, nor lose your manners, think more about what you have been taught in the past, and act carefully." ”

Xie Qingyi didn't seem to understand, and let out a sullen "oh". In Xie Zuo's opinion, most of these rammed goods didn't understand. But it doesn't matter, Corporal Lixian, although he has no personal experience, but all kinds of film and television literature in later generations, tricks such as looking at the thatched house, are not necessarily much worse than people in this era.

It's almost time for the morning meal, and after enduring the torture-like meal again, it's almost time to get ready to go.

The old housekeeper went to prepare the gifts, and the left and right were just some meat, cloth, etc., all of which were ready-made things, as long as they were packed and cut, and it didn't take much work.

Xie Zuo sat in the room in a daze. The worries that pressed on the heart were suddenly removed, and the mind was inevitably lively, no longer limited to external crises. As the saying goes, although Xie Zuo will not start to spend time now, it is not a good thing to fantasize about the left and the right to lead the yellow, and to flirt with the women of the good family everywhere.

Thinking of molesting women, Xie Zuo suddenly remembered a strange thing. A few days ago, because of the new arrival, coupled with troubles, I haven't thought about it. At this time, he suddenly remembered, so he asked casually:

"Tsing Yi, I think our family seems to be all men from top to bottom, why don't you even have a maid?"

Xie Qingyi's eyes widened in ignorance: "Young Master, your soul loss has occurred again?" ”

"Sometimes or forget." Xie Zuo had no choice but to pretend to be stupid.

"This is the master in order to let the young master study with peace of mind, all the sprinkling and cleaning chores in the house are all with men, that is, the cook, the maid, the maid, and the male servant, and it has been the same since the master took over as the governor."

Xie Zuo was silent when he heard this. How many maids in the family will affect reading? Even if it is, what explanation does the cook and the washwoman make! Do you think that Xie Dashao will be so hungry that he can't even let go of the cook and wash the wife? I really don't know how old-fashioned my cheap daddy's thinking must be, thanks to the fact that when he came into this world, he had already gone to heaven. Otherwise, I don't know how to get along with such an old guy who is full of ethics!

When I was complaining in my heart, someone came to report that the gift had been prepared and could be set off at any time. This is a major matter related to the life of the family, and it is not allowed to be sloppy, Xie Zuo can't complain anymore, and beckons Xie Qingyi to hurry up.

It is said that it is the north shore, but after all, they are all in the same village, and it is really not far away.

After turning a corner, crossing a dirt road, and crossing a wooden bridge over a stream, we reached the north bank.

Unlike the cottages on the south bank, the houses built on the north bank are obviously much more casual, ranging from four or five households close to each other, to single-family houses. According to the clues provided by the old butler, the master and servant found the exhibition house at the end of the village, where they had high hopes.

Strictly speaking, this place is no longer considered part of the village. Because, who has ever seen a house built on a hillside slope?

Although Xinshan Village is a mountain village, it is actually only surrounded by mountains, and the houses in the village are basically built around the gentle land on both sides of the Xixi River. Only this family is directly out of the flat land category, and the house is about to extend halfway up the mountainside!

Standing at the gate of the courtyard, Xie Zuo was a little speechless, because he really didn't know what words to use to describe this family.

Say he's awesome?

The fence of the yard is made of some wattles at will, and the cornerstone of the house is made of mountain stones to the height of the breast wall, and then a few wooden beams are erected on it, and then surrounded by bamboo mats, even if it is four walls, and the roof is simply covered with two layers of thatch!

Should he be said to be shabby?

The courtyard is located on a commanding topography, with a panoramic view of the entire village. There is only one sloping dirt road to enter the village from the gate, which is typically easy to defend and difficult to attack. Regardless of the dilapidated dwelling, if you encounter a foreign enemy, the fence can be used as a horse repellent, and the stone rampart can be used as a breastwork, it is simply a standard small fortress!

After settling down, Xie Zuo walked to the courtyard gate made of a few fir trees, more like a horse fence than a door, but suddenly found that there seemed to be no door for him to knock on here, so he had to raise his voice and shout:

"Is anyone there?"

After a while, there was movement in the hut, and then a man came out of the hut.

It was a young young woman, twenty-four or five years old, with a bun on her head, tied with a cloth band; A very cleanly washed light gray coarse cloth shirt wrapped around her graceful figure, and with her plain face, it made Xie Zuo suddenly feel bright!

I didn't expect that in this remote mountain village, there would be such a natural beauty to carve! Well, thanks to the cheap daddy on the left, in fact, this is also the first woman he has seen in this world since he crossed over!

Speaking from the heart, if you want to say that the country is beautiful and fragrant, it is not enough. But for Xie Zuo, who is accustomed to seeing many artificial beauties in later generations, one person has no makeup, and the other has no plastic surgery, under the same conditions, you can look for it in the major rural areas of China, and I am afraid that I can't really find a few people who can get this posture!

The young woman saw Xie Zuo and the others, took a few steps forward, and saluted through the fence:

"I don't know why you came?"

Unexpectedly, Xie Zuo hadn't moved yet, and Xie Qingyi behind him suddenly stepped forward. I saw all kinds of unreliable big scholars on weekdays, suddenly stretched out his left arm, his right hand was bent in his left arm, his head was buried in the empty space made of his hands, his two legs were used to make lunges, and he shouted loudly in a strange rhythm:

"Hui Chun De Shang Nai An Hexi Xie Clan 13th Lord Left, bow to his subordinates!"

What the hell is this? Xie Zuo was startled by a voice, and looked at his own scholar like a ghost!

The young woman seemed to understand, took a small step back, her legs were slightly bent together, her upper body leaned forward, her hands were placed in front of her chest, her left was high and her right was low, and her left hand hung down from her sleeve to cover her face, echoing in the same strange tone and soft voice:

"Xiao Minliang respects the Hexi Zhan's micro poultry woman and knocks on it!"

Xie Qingyi stood up as if he was not strange, raised his forehead with his hand, and said loudly:

"Bye!"

The young woman also stood up, crossed her hands over her skirt, and her cherry lips opened lightly:

"Welcome!"

Which one is this singing? Xie Zuo looked at his own scholar who was serious, and suddenly felt that what he saw must be a fake Xie Qingyi.
