4 Thirteen less
4 "Thirteenth Young Master, are you drunk again? How did one person come out? The woman said in a flirtatious tone, the smell of fat powder and smoke came from her body, Xiao Nan looked up along the woman's snow-white thighs, and saw the exquisite figure wrapped in a gorgeous cheongsam.
The woman lowered her head, and he saw that it was a face with heavy makeup.
"What's wrong? Seeing me like a ghost? Am I that scary? "The woman's hairstyle is a popular perm during the Republic of China, with a tortoiseshell cigarette holder in her mouth and a small gold mouth purse in her hand.
Full Republic of China dress!
Not only that, the surroundings seemed to be less dim and quiet, there was the sound of wheels pressing against the stone road, there was the sound of people walking and talking, he turned his head to look at the street, the ancient buildings on the road were all lit up, all kinds of shops were still open, and people in Republic of China clothes passed by him in twos and threes.
He sat down on the ground again in horror and stared blankly at everything in front of him.
What's going on?
Hallucination?
He grabbed his head with his hands and scratched his scalp, trying to sober himself up.
"Oops, I think you really drank too much. It's the same as the devil. Come on, I'll be a good person again, I originally planned to go back. The woman took a puff of her cigarette, called a rickshaw driver waiting on the side of the road, and gave him two oceans, and the driver nodded and ran away.
After a while, an old man in a robe and a horse coat came with several servants and carried a chair.
"Thirteenth Young Master, ouch, why are you drinking like this again!" The old man with round-rimmed eyes stomped his feet, and he instructed a few servants to help Xiao Nan into the chair.
Xiao Nan sat in the chair and sniffed his clothes, and asked blankly, "Do I seem to be drunk?" ”
"Yes, yes, you're not drunk, go home." The old man said let the servant carry him away first, and then he stayed there to talk to the cheongsam woman, Xiao Nan turned his head in the chair, and watched the old man take out some money from his arms and give it to her, not knowing what he was talking about.
He was carried into the mansion through the back door of the Xiao family's mansion, and the moment he entered the door, he felt a sound in his heart.
Unexpectedly, he actually entered the Xiao family in this way!
And everything in the mansion is so brand new and beautiful, with bright lights everywhere, carved beams and painted buildings, and twists and turns in the corridor, just like the Grand View Garden in the Dream of Red Mansions!
His mind was blank, and it was not until he was carried to a bedroom with a separate courtyard, and several maids and women came to wait for him to enter the house to change clothes and freshen up, that he came back to his senses a little, and thought:
Have you crossed over?
When he was pushed into the room in an old-fashioned wheelchair, he suddenly saw the dressing table behind the screen in the room, so he got up from the wheelchair and jumped on one leg to the mirror.
The self in the mirror is still his original face, why is it considered the thirteenth young man of the Xiao family?
Thirteenth young master, isn't it the young master who had one leg cut off?!
He looked back and saw that the maids were hanging up their coats, and a few more men had come to help him take off their shirts.
"Young master, you are really trendy, this dress is a foreign style from a foreign goods store in Xicheng!" The maid complimented him with his coat and hung it on the hanger.
Xiao Nan looked at the interior layout of the house with a mixture of East and West styles around him, and he secretly took a deep breath to calm himself down and remind himself to observe carefully.
This may be an experience that any archaeologist dreams of, and he may be approaching the "truth" of the Xiao family's mansion!
The maid in the house served him to take a bath before leaving.
I have to say that during the Republic of China, large families were really extravagant, and in this kind of ancient mansion, there was a very advanced water pipe system at that time, its own boiler room, and the bathroom was completely Western-style.
This thirteenth young master is a person who prefers Western-style life, and almost all the knick-knacks in his room are Western-style. Only large items such as bed cabinets are still beautiful traditional Chinese mahogany creations.
After putting down the curtains, the big bed was like an independent space, and after the maid turned off the light and went out, he was finally able to think about what he had encountered.
He just wanted to see the Xiao family's ancient mansion, how could he "cross" so magically? How do you get back?
In fact, even if he can't return to the 21st century, he has nothing to be nostalgic for, it's nothing more than the technological development of the Internet and information at that time, his career has come to an end, and he hasn't touched the hypocrisy of family friendship or anything - only an aunt who is crazy to let him get married soon, and that aunt is not really good for him, because his father had asked a lawyer to notarize before he died, if his aunt can raise him until he gets married, then a large amount of property in his father's name will officially belong to his aunt, As a thank you to her.
Although he was young at the time, he also knew that in addition to this money, his father also entrusted his aunt and his wife to manage the wealth left to him on his behalf, and after the death of his parents, his uncle, who was originally just a small person, turned into a rich tycoon, taking all the property of his parents for himself for so many years, and lied to himself that it was the result of his self-made business.
As long as he is married, then according to his father's will, everything owned by the Xiao family will belong to his uncle's family, and he will become a mediocre middle school teacher and spend his life in obscurity.
However, Xiao Nan didn't really care about these injustices. He doesn't want to find unnecessary anger for himself, and he is really not suitable for business, his parents' business inheritance is left to himself, maybe it is better to let his uncle-in-law run it.
Thinking about it this way, maybe it's not bad to stay in this era.
In the complicated thoughts, Xiao Nan gradually fell into a deep sleep.
