The Xie family's main house is still twenty or thirty miles away from Huiji City, and the carriage gradually drove into West Street, and at the end of West Street, there is a small courtyard with only ** wings for Xie An's private ownership. > they were going to go there to rest and recuperate after they were ready to go to see Liu Tan after providing the latest chapters to read.

At the gate of the courtyard, more than a dozen servants and maidservants were waiting at the gate of the courtyard. The guards were already smiling and relaxed.

Entering the courtyard, after Chu Si and Xie An cleaned themselves, Chu Si changed into a pale pink silk dress, combed up the falling cloud bun, shook his head, and after eating with a tinkling of rings, he walked to the Liu Mansion on East Street under the leadership of Xie An.

When I went out, it was already dusk, and the streets where the carriage drove all the way began to drift with smoke.

After arriving at East Street, Xie An took Chu Si's men and got out of the carriage. A group of people walked through an alley, and what appeared in front of them was actually a mountain road. The mountain road is winding and lined with trees. Looking up, there are many pavilions in the middle of the mountain, and the music and human voices continue to come, which is very lively.

Xie An pointed to the pavilion on the mountain and explained to Chu Si: "Most of the guests have come to the Liu Mansion. This is the back mountain of Liu's mansion, it is a small road, Liu Tan likes his guests to go up the mountain from this road, and evaluate the garden he created. Those who enter through his main entrance, he usually treats them with blank eyes. ”

I see.

Chu Si smiled: "He is also an interesting person. ”

Xie An smiled: "Exactly." Except for some quirky hobbies, Liu Tan has an easy-going and tolerant personality and is very easy to get along with. ”

By this time, the sun had set over the mountain, and the mountain road gradually brought a bit of fog. Chu Si saw from a distance that there were three servants, each holding a fire head in their hands, and began to light the lanterns hanging on the trees on both sides of the mountain road.

As the night deepened, the lanterns gradually lit up and continued to wind down from the mountain pavilions, dotted the trees at night like a long dragon. The lanterns echo with the stars in the sky, adding a bit of color to the mountains and forests.

Continue along the winding mountain path. This time after walking fifty meters. A pavilion appeared in front of the two of them. On this pavilion is a stone table. The end of a chain. It is tied to a stone pipe.

Xie An turned around. Walk towards the pipe. Chu Si followed behind him. Took a few steps. She stared blankly at a small flower next to a stone. That flower is an orchid. And not far ahead. A begonia tree stands tall!

Chu Si glanced at it in amazement. Suddenly appeared in many inconspicuous places around the place. There are one or two precious flower seedlings. It's just that it's night. Can't see clearly

Look up again. Verdant trees in the middle of the night. and stones hidden in the trees. All of them are deeply in line with the "interest of nature". The more you look at it, the more delicate it becomes.

Then. Xie An had already picked up the stone flute. He put the pipe to his mouth. Whimpered and played.

The sound of the flute is soft and melodious. With distant memories. Gently reverberates in the heart of everyone.

Chu Si looked at Xie An gently, she never knew that Xie An could actually blow the flute, and he played so beautifully!

Xie An blew more than a dozen sentences. Put the stone flute down, take Chu Si's hand and continue to walk towards the mountain road.

After walking a few dozen steps, three or four servants appeared on the road ahead. They saw Xie An and Chu Si at a glance. Hurriedly retreated to the road on both sides, bowing his head with a face of respect.

As the night deepened, Chu Si glanced around a few times before retracting his gaze.

After walking another 200 meters, the sound of gurgling water came to my ears. Xie An turned towards the path on the right, and after walking less than fifty meters, a small curved river meandered in the distance. Pass them and walk around to the right.

A nine-winding corridor connects the two sides of the river. Reach deep into the mountains. In the middle of the cloister, a pavilion stands quietly. Xie An smiled. He took Chu Si by the hand and walked up to the corridor and came to the pavilion.

On the pavilion. There was a piano in it. Xie An walked slowly to the piano, sat down slowly, stroked the strings with his hands, and began to play.

The sound of the piano is elegant and pleasant, and as the night breeze spreads far away, it carries a feeling that it is impossible to tell whether it is lonely or quiet.

Chu Si looked at Xie An with stars in his eyes at this time! She doesn't know much about the piano, but after coming to this world, she often hears the sound of the piano playing, and over time, she can also hear that Xie An's piano skills have reached a very high level. The sound of the half-song piano fluttered like a flowing spring, and Xie An slowly stood up. He took Chu Sidi's hand, walked out of the corridor, came to the place where he was standing just now, and walked around the river to the right.

Looking at Chu Si's curious and admiring eyes, Xie An smiled: "This is also my hobby!" ”

Somehow, when he heard Xie An say, "I'm the last to come to my father-in-law", Chu Si was overjoyed in his heart, and this joy was even stronger than when he heard him introduce himself as an "insider". She smiled a little distractedly: Yes, I will always live with him in the future, and occasionally go back to my parents' house, and usually linger in the mountains and rivers. That's nice!

Xie An continued: "The stone flute in front of me and the qin here are all played by visitors. This was another form of name, so that when he and the people on the mountain heard it, they knew that there was a gentleman coming. ”

Chu Si's eyes widened and he asked with a smile, "What if there are more people coming?" What if there were people who didn't know how to play these two instruments? ”

Xie An said with a smile: "So he has been here for a few years, but the people who walk this road are all on a rampage, and they screamed happily twice, and they took it unhappily." Haha, he's been sending people to take care of this place for the past few years, isn't he just looking forward to today? Xie An couldn't help but smile and pursed his lips, and said a little proudly: "I just did this, I'm afraid that I am the first guest in a few years to act according to his wishes." Hehe, if you have something to ask him, of course you have to make him happy. ”

The first to move an instrument in a few years? Chu Si was powerless.

After walking for a while, the sound of talking, laughing and singing gradually became clear. After turning two corners, Chu Sixian's voices came from a mountain col on his left that was less than a hundred meters apart.

As if waiting for something, the chattering and singing were much quieter, and only the bright lights shot into the sky from the col.

At this moment, Chu Si sighed lightly: "What is that?" ”

Her eyes were sharp, and at a glance she could see something floating on the faint light of the river. Holding Xie An's hand and walking a few steps closer, Chu Si realized that it was a small boat floating around, a boat the size of a food box nailed by bamboo! There was a small candle burning on the ship, with only a slight fire on the core.

She was so amused that she flicked her long sleeves, and a strong wind gently rolled up the boat and landed on her hand.

Who knows, just as her sleeve touched the little boat, a crisp bell sounded pleasantly.
