Chapter 66: The Villa

As far as the eye can see, the retro Chinese architecture with red walls and yellow tiles is imprinted under the blue sky and green leaves, the ridge of the cornice wall stands behind the high wall, the vermilion gate is as beautiful as new, and the bronze door nails reveal an ancient charm that has come out of time. The front of the door is open and flat, there are flower beds on the side of the wall, all kinds of strange flowers and plants are blooming one after another, and the stone lion sits majestically, which is the style of a large family in ancient times.

"It's really magnificent, if you put it in ancient times, just this red wall and yellow tile would be arrogant." Zhuang Xianyu said jokingly to this Wu Qingfeng, and caught a glimpse of the flowers in the flower bed that were not so neat, and said with a smile: "It seems that this friend of yours really likes flowers and plants." Festive is festive, beautiful is beautiful is a little messy. ”

"Hey, what is this, he died early in the morning, and a character like him has always been as he wants. You see, the door is a real antiquity, completely demolished. But when it comes to the flowers and plants raised by this old brother, after breakfast, I will take you to visit the mountain behind the villa, where the flowers and plants are called more. ”

The two laughed and walked to the vermilion gate. Before Zhuang Xianyu could touch this authentic antiquity, the vermilion lacquer door suddenly opened from the inside with a loud sound, and an old man with a posture of greeting distinguished guests walked out.

It was the butler, a meticulous old man with combed hair, he wore a crisp black suit, a white shirt with a bow tie around his neck, and although his suit and bow tie looked a little out of place with Chinese architecture, this serious and majestic old man was still modern and professional.

"Mr. Wu, Mr. Zhuang, I have admired the name for a long time, and I have lost my welcome. Two distinguished guests, please. The housekeeper personally led the way to welcome the guests, and his attitude was very sincere, and even a person like Zhuang Xianyu was very happy to arrive.

This house is already grand from the outside, and it is even more difficult to hide its color after entering. The eaves of the eaves one after another, the atmospheric inner house, the carved wooden windows zigzag verandah, although there are bright glass appliances, but they are also placed in their own suitability, a harmonious and natural appearance.

Under the leadership of the housekeeper, the two walked through the winding corridor, bypassed the lotus pond in the front yard pavilion, walked through the annex and finally arrived at the dining room.

Needless to say, the retro beauty in the hall is needless to say, and when the three of them came in, they saw a few pairs of blue and white porcelain bowls and chopsticks placed on a round carved wooden table, and they were ready to feast at a glance.

"Two distinguished guests, please." The nanny on the side of the housekeeper pulled the chair away, and Zhuang Xianyu followed Wu Qingfeng to sit at the housekeeper's invitation.

The butler greeted the two and left, and the dining room was separated by a retro screen painted with a picture of a beautiful woman on the side. As soon as he walked out, several women dressed in the same simple Hanfu began to walk in in silence with food, gently put it on the table, and quietly left. Although Zhuang Xian's appetite was not too heavy, he was really a little surprised to see that this table was tender and crisp, and there was no meat in the pure green dishes that were delicious and delicious.

How could an old Jianghu like Wu Qingfeng not see Zhuang Xianyu's doubts, he smiled and put a piece of emerald green vegetables into the bowl, and said to Zhuang Xianyu: "This dish, called Bitter and Sweet, is made with bitter vegetables in the field as the main ingredient, blanched in boiling water and then mixed cold. Young people like you may not like it very much, but it is a rare memory for old people like us. Come to my old friend, the best thing to eat is these wild vegetables, you can try them. ”

"Okay." Zhuang Xianyu nodded yes, and took a piece of fried wolfberry sprouts with chopsticks. To be honest, after getting used to eating heavy oil and heavy ingredients, the light and delicious wild vegetables do seem to be very refreshing.

However, when people are happy, there are always things that spoil the fun, so the people who disturb the interest when Zhuang Xian, Yu and Wu Qingfeng are in harmony with each other comes.

It was a young man in a white suit, and as soon as he entered the door, he first started with a cold snort and raised his eyebrows at Wu Qingfeng and Zhuang Xianyu who were looking at him, looking provocative.

Wu Qingfeng glanced at him and continued to eat the vegetables slowly.

Zhuang Xianyu blinked knowingly, pretended not to see it, and continued to pick up vegetables.

This should be the annoying young man in the mouth of his predecessors, and his face is really hateful.

Glancing disdainfully at the wild vegetables in front of Zhuang Xianyu and Wu Qingfeng, the young man pursed his lips and sat on the wooden chair beside him. He cocked Erlang's legs, snapped his fingers, and ignored the other people's reactions and said, "I don't want to eat wild vegetables, and I'm not a rabbit, so bring me a tuna sandwich." ”

"Yes sir, please wait a minute." A woman in a Tang costume nodded respectfully and walked towards the kitchen.

"Do you still dress like this at your age, thinking that it is a cosplay for young people? Pretending. The young man snorted coldly and sneered at Wu Qingfeng, but he looked left and right in embarrassment because he didn't get a reaction, and hurriedly urged the nanny to deliver the sandwich quickly.

The three of them bowed their heads awkwardly to eat, but the sound of conversation came from next door. The retro screen only has the function of isolating the space, and there is no real sound insulation, so the situation on the opposite side can also be seen faintly in the gaps.

It just so happened that his seat could directly see the opposite side, so he listened to the gossip and ate openly.

In the gap, you can see a nanny wearing Hanfu, who looks up from time to time and secretly looks at the housekeeper, nervously rubbing her rough palms, and whispering. "Steward Zhang, we have something we want to discuss with you."

Steward Zhang sighed and said, "Actually, you can tell me privately, but I don't think you can wait, right?" ”

The nanny looked a little apprehensive: "The matter is more urgent, something happened to several of our families, I want to resign first and go home to deal with the ......"

Steward Zhang sighed, but his expression did not change in the slightest, as if he had expected it a long time ago, and said: "You don't have to make excuses, if this happens, it is understandable that you want to leave." Counting this month, three months' salary will be credited to your card on time. But if the matter is settled and you want to come back, I'm always welcome. ”

Several nannies showed a little guilt in their eyes, and their lips trembled a little, probably wanting to say something beautiful, but in the end, they only opened their mouths a few times in embarrassment, hiding the happy expression at that moment, and whispered thanks.

After all, in here, there is nothing to say about the environmental salary and treatment, and the Zhang family is also very talkative, but there is a major event that is critical to the life of this person, and no matter how good the treatment is, they don't want to stay. Seeing that Steward Zhang was so good at talking and didn't want to deduct his salary, several people breathed a sigh of relief, without the slightest hesitation, and couldn't wait to leave the villa.

Steward Zhang sighed, looked up and saw Zhuang Xianyu who was looking at this side in the gap, smiled apologetically, and walked out of the door.

Seeing this, Wu Qingfeng also shook his head and sighed, and said, "Don't look at it, when you finish breakfast, I'll take you to the back mountain to see my old friend's baby." We'll see, and I'll explain it to you in detail. ”
