On the way home, Zhang Weixin learned from a conversation with Zhong Yuanwai that the house in this village is one of his other courtyards, which is mainly used to escape the heat when the weather is hot, and the house is in Fanyang County. Seeing that the weather was getting hotter and hotter, he brought his family here to escape the heat. And the land around this village is basically his family's, which has been passed down from his ancestors. In addition, there are some places around the county, so even if you don't become an official now, you don't have to worry about food and clothing.

"It seems that this kind fat man is still a landlord!" Zhang Weixin listened to Zhong Yuanwai introduce himself, and thought in his heart, "Now our group of people is short of food and clothing, and we don't have half a penny on our bodies - there are a lot of RMB and bank cards, but unfortunately it is not as good as a piece of paper now, if we have a good relationship with this fat outsider, at least we will not worry about eating and drinking for a while." Thinking of this, he chatted with this bell member even more happily.

After a short time, he came to the door of the door outside the clock. As Zhong Yuanwai said, this is just a summer retreat, so the gate is not deliberately repaired tall and beautiful, just an ordinary black lacquer gate. When I entered the door, I found that it was very spacious inside, it was a three-entry courtyard, and there were things across the courtyard and the side courtyard. A servant came forward to wait, and Zhong Yuanwai ordered: "Zhong Fu, these two are friends I just met, go and clean the guest room quickly, and let the kitchen prepare a banquet, I will pick up the wind and wash the dust for the two friends." Then he turned to Zhang Weixin and the two and said, "The two sons don't have to be formal, and go with Zhong Fu to settle down and freshen up, and then let's talk in the middle hall." Zhang Weixin hurriedly thanked him and followed Zhong Fu.

This Zhong Fu led Zhang and Wang to the guest room of the West Cross Courtyard to rest for a while, and instructed the others to bring washing water and tea, and then went to arrange a banquet. Zhang and Wang washed their faces, drank tea, and chatted.

"Teacher Zhang, you said that this Zhong Yuanwai is really interesting." Wang Feng said with some incomprehension, "We don't know him, and the dress is so weird for him, but he brought us home after chatting with us for a while, which is too defenseless!" Aren't you afraid that we are villains, now that we have stepped on the road, wait until the evening to give him a pot? ”

Zhang Weixin listened, shook his head, and said solemnly: "That's not necessarily." On the contrary, I don't think this person is an ordinary person. As you said, a few of us are dressed strangely and our origins are unknown, what would be the reaction if ordinary people met us. Either like the old man, he was overwhelmed or he was afraid to avoid it. Either they see us as a threat, are hostile to us, and want to get rid of them as soon as possible. But this Zhong Yuanwai is not like this, although he is also surprised by our attire, but he does not show it obviously, but talks with us, and is quite interested in our origins, he has to break the casserole ---- ask in the end, this is not a kind of inquiry and understanding for us. Although he is only a rich man now, he is a former official after all, and now that there are a few such strange strangers on his territory, how can he not inquire carefully. If he doesn't ask us questions and ignores us, that's not normal. Do you think that's the truth? ”

"Then he won't bring us home, just find a farmhouse for us to live in." Wang Feng still didn't understand a little, so he pondered for a while and asked.

Zhang Weixin patted him on the shoulder with a smile, and said with emotion: "My stupid brother, if he doesn't bring us home, how can he monitor our every move without omission?" And even if we don't have good intentions and plan to enter the village in the middle of the night to commit a crime, the two of us can still be hostages or something in his hands, and the safety factor is greater. ”

"Wow, there won't be so many doorways in it!" Wang Feng said in surprise, "In case the two of us have peerless martial arts, it will be a wolf lure, isn't he going to miscalculate?" Besides, if he wants to be taken hostage, then he shouldn't magnify his ambition to go, in case he goes back to call someone,"

"I'm afraid it's the two of us who are white and pure, and they don't look like they know kung fu, so they can rest assured that they will bring us back. The five big and three thick ones of Dazhichang are all tendon meat, and they are all practicing family at first glance. And he still has a horizontal knife on his back, and people would rather go back to call someone than go home to get it. Zhang Weixin said half-jokingly.

This time, Wang Feng was not convinced, he stood up, rolled up his sleeves, stretched his biceps, and said angrily: "Brother, I have also practiced Jeet Kune Do for more than ten years, although I don't have a big waist like Zhilin, there are a lot of muscles." Ordinary three or five men can't get close to me. ”

Zhang Weixin looked at his unconvinced look, couldn't help but hahadaxiao, patted his strong biceps, and said, "Okay, okay, I know you're amazing, hurry up and cover it." Be careful of being seen by others and become suspicious, then we may not be comfortable tonight. Seeing that Wang Feng still couldn't think about it, he said earnestly, "Now we are walking on thin ice with every step of our way, we must be careful everywhere, and it is necessary to be competitive." Since people think that you are a weak scholar, then you should be a weak scholar in a down-to-earth manner, and don't be blind. Hearing his words, Wang Feng finally put down his arms and sat down, and began to drink tea depressedly to calm his anger.

After a while, I heard Zhong Fu's voice outside the door: "Have the two sons settled down?" My lord invited the two sons to the atrium to talk. Zhang and Wang hurriedly agreed and walked out of the room and went with Zhong Fu.

When I arrived at the middle hall, I saw that Zhong Yuanwai had already changed into a soft robe at home, and he was sitting there waiting for them, and there was a handsome young man sitting next to him, I don't know what the origin was. The two didn't have time to think about it, they hurriedly stepped forward to salute, Zhong Yuanwai and the young man got up and returned the salute, and then invited them to sit down, and ordered someone to watch the tea, before asking: "Are the two sons satisfied with the residence?" This mansion is just a summer retreat below, and the conditions are a little simpler. Zhang Weixin hurriedly replied: "This is already excellent. I don't know Mr. in the lower class, but the gentleman treats us so politely, I really don't know how to thank the gentleman, how can there be a reason to be dissatisfied. ”

"Where, where. Zhang Gongzi doesn't have to be polite, the two of them came from afar, and Zhong can be regarded as a landlord's friendship. As he spoke, he pointed to the young man next to him and said, "This is the little dog Shiwen, I heard that there are overseas guests at home, so I must come to see it." So the two sides exchanged politeness again. At this time, Zhong Fu came up to report that the banquet had been prepared in the flower hall, and Zhong Yuanwai and his son invited Zhang and Wang to the table. ,

At the banquet, Zhong Shiwen listened to Zhang Weixin's words and seemed to be quite knowledgeable, and the prince Wang Feng next to him was also a well-informed person, so he had the heart to make friends. Moreover, his father had already told him that these two men and their companions were not ordinary people and should not be taken lightly. You need to get in touch with them to understand their purpose and decide what to do with them next. So he frequently raised his glass to toast, and the atmosphere on the wine table gradually became warmer. After a few glasses of water and wine, everyone's mood gradually relaxed. As a result, the topic changed from the chaos of Wuhu and the chaotic times at the end of the Tang Dynasty, to the sea adventures of the ancestors of Zhang and Wang, and then developed into everything about Tiannan, Haibei, astronomy and geography. Later, even Wang Feng, who was originally afraid of saying too much and not talking much, began to talk eloquently in some areas that he was familiar with.

The more Zhong Yuanwai listened, the more surprised he became, and the more he listened, the more he felt that the two young people in front of him were not simple, and secretly thought: "I am also a well-informed person, and I am also very good at reading when I am not an official, and I have dabbled in all aspects. And the two young people in front of them are not very old, but they are in their twenties and early thirties. But listening to their words, their knowledge is quite extensive, and many theories are unheard of before, but when you think about them carefully, they are very reasonable. These two young people are really incomprehensible, their arrival is a blessing or a curse for themselves, for Huangshandian, for Fanxian, for Youyun, and even for Liao or Zhou! ”

"Daddy, I heard that there are two strange overseas monks in our family, where are they, tell me to take a look." Just as he was thinking about it, a crisp and pleasant question came from outside the flower hall. Before the words fell, I saw a delicate girl break into the flower hall. As a result, the originally lively flower hall immediately quieted down. Zhong Yuanwai shook his head helplessly, Young Master Zhong looked embarrassed, and Zhang Weixin and Wang Feng looked up with grievances, wanting to see who said that this handsome and dashing gentleman was a strange monk. At first glance, I suddenly felt relaxed, and a fresh and refined breath came to my face, and that little grievance was thrown out of the clouds in an instant. I saw a young girl standing in front of her, tall and slender, but there were two small peaks on her chest. There are double buns on his head, a pair of big black eyes flickering and blinking, his delicate nose is slightly open because of running, his face is as smooth as clotted fat and slightly flushed because of running, and a warm pink mouth is open into an O-shape at this time, which looks even more moving.

"It turns out that in the ancient scholarly family, there were such lively and lovely, beautiful and refined girls." At this time, Zhang Weixin and Wang Feng sighed in their hearts almost at the same time. Wang Feng even threw the so-called youth idol stars who were regarded as dream lovers in his previous life to Java the moment he saw the girl. He really wanted to shout at this time: "What is pure, what is refined, my Wang Feng has really understood it now, the previous twenty years were simply in vain, and he actually used stubborn stones as beautiful jade." Xiexie God, my Wang Feng is worth this trip. ”

When the girl came in, she found that the person she called the strange monk was sitting in the hall, and the expression of her father and brother was quite wonderful, so she said, "Ah! With a soft snort, he lifted his skirt and turned around and ran.

Seeing the girl's graceful back disappear outside the flower hall, Wang Feng was a little disappointed, and thought to himself: "She is the daughter of this outsider, that is, she also lives in this mansion." I guess I'll have the chance to meet her in the future. As for what does it matter if this girl is called a strange monk, although he is not Lolita, but he can be paid attention to and commented by such a beautiful girl, it is also a very pleasant thing. ”

"Ahem, ahem, this ......, this is a little girl, usually I am arrogant and spoiled, and there are no rules. Please also ask the two sons not to be surprised. After a moment of silence, the embarrassed Zhong Yuanwai reluctantly explained to the two guests.

"It's okay, it's okay." Zhang and Wang said almost in unison. After all, in the face of such a cute beautiful girl, who can bear to blame her.
