The day of April is really hard to describe in words, the blue sky and white clouds, the breeze is gentle, there are red and red fruits hanging on the trees, it is really a good time to step into spring.

Although Chengshuang didn't tell Xiao Yue why she didn't go out some time ago, Xiao Yue didn't care about this detail.

Anyway, in the end, Chengshuang was willing to go to the manor with Satsuki to play, and Satsuki's goal was achieved.

Wen Youyou rode a horse with Mu Shi, Xiaoyue and Chengshuang sat in Lao Chen's carriage, and it was already evening when the group of four arrived at the Chen family's manor.

When she was in the city, Chengshuang never dared to look out of the car window, and as soon as she got out of the city gate, she opened the curtains, like a person who had just been released from prison, looking east and west, curious about everything.

"Satsuki, look there's a magpie over there!"

"Xiaoyue, look, this pear tree is so beautiful, the flowers are full of branches! When the wind blows, the petals float down, it's really beautiful!"

"Satsuki, Satsuki... Seeing that Xiaoyue didn't speak, Chengshuang turned her head and found that Xiaoyue was napping, so she didn't shout, just quietly looked out the window.

In fact, Xiaoyue was just pretending to be asleep, she was a little weak-hearted, after all, the reason for taking Chengshuang out this time was just a pretense. She was still a little worried about Chen Qiwen's bad idea, so she leaned on the carriage and pretended to sleep.

After an hour or so, they came to the Chen family's manor, and there was a large wooden plaque hanging at the door of the manor, on which were written four big characters: "Four Seasons Manor".

At this time, it is the setting sun, the afterglow of the setting sun shines on the earth, and the surrounding areas are so calm and peaceful.

Chengshuang suppressed her excitement and followed behind Xiao Yue, pretending to be her personal maid.

There was an old man guarding the door at the gate of the manor, and he stepped forward to Wen Youyou and asked, "Is it Lord Wen?"

Wen Youyou nodded, "It's Xiaguan, your master has arranged it." ”

"Well, yes, Lord Wen, please come with me. The old man opened the gate of the manor, pointed out the way to Wen Youyou, and went out to take Lao Chen to settle the carriage.

Wen Youyou turned to Xiao Yue and said, "I guess I can only spend the night here tonight, and the city gate will be closed when I go back." ”

"Hmm. Xiao Yue thought to herself that she hoped that she could reconcile Chen Qiwen and Chengshuang tonight, otherwise she would be busy in vain.

This manor is not big, but it is built on the mountain, and a lot of medicinal herbs are planted on the mountain, and the house is built at the foot of the mountain.

The houses are built in a very simple style, made of bamboo and mud bricks.

After passing through a row of houses, they found a small stream ahead, but it was more scenic and quiet.

Satsuki didn't come to buy a manor, but she also felt that this place was really good and suitable for her appetite.

While passing the bamboo bridge above the stream, Xiao Yue couldn't suppress her joy and asked, "Wen Youyou, how much is this Zhuangzi worth?"

Wen Youyou thought that Xiao Yue was acting, and he said very cooperatively: "Actually, the house is not expensive, what is expensive is the field, but this manor is basically mountainous, so it won't be too expensive." ”

In fact, Wen Youyou knew in his heart that the Chen family's manor would not be sold for much money, this mountain land is not an ordinary mountain, it is suitable for planting several precious medicinal materials, so the Chen family will invest so much time and money to take care of this manor.

But Wen Youyou's thoughts, Xiao Yue didn't know, she was a little tempted. Thinking of the Mu Ziyu who lived next door, and the masked man who didn't know the origin, made Xiaoyue feel that it was also a beautiful thing to move to live outside the city.

"How much?"

Wen Youyou didn't expect Xiao Yue to keep asking, and she was speechless for a while.

At this time, Cheng Shuang suddenly said: "Look, this house is built like a garden. ”

After crossing the bamboo bridge, you will see houses one after another, which are built on top of each other against the mountain, and they look a little imposing.

Xiao Yue was a little curious, "This Chen... The owner's taste is good, this place is hidden and quiet, and it is more than enough as a place to escape from the world. ”

Cheng Shuang also felt novel, she took the lead and ran to the door of this courtyard, and when she pushed the door, the door was not locked, and there was no one around.

"Hey, it's strange," Cheng Shuang looked back at Wen Youyou and Xiao Yue, "Why didn't anyone come to greet us?" ”

Satsuki saw a stone tablet on the right side of the courtyard gate, with two vaguely visible characters engraved on it: "Pharmacy".

This courtyard was built in the shade, and now that the sun is setting, the light in the courtyard is even darker.

This courtyard is different from the bamboo huts outside, but is made of solid stone bricks, and some of the lower stone bricks still have some moss on them, which looks old.

Xiao Yue looked into the courtyard and found that there was no one inside, and it was empty, which did look a little eerie.

At this moment, not far from them, a little light came on, attracting everyone's attention.

As the light got closer and closer to them, Satsuki found that it was actually a little maid carrying a lantern.

When the little maid saw them, she bowed slightly, "You are friends of the young master's family, please come with me." ”

With that, he turned and walked to the crooked cloister, and led them into the deep courtyard.

After walking for a while, they came to a brightly lit room with a table full of food.

The little maid said: "The slave maid is called Xiao Xing, if you have any orders, call me, this meal has already been prepared, please feel free to do so." After speaking, without waiting for Wen Youyou's reply, she exited the house.

After the tiring journey, they were all hungry, and there were no outsiders in the house, so everyone sat down very casually and ate dinner with dishes and chopsticks.

Xiao Yue was a little puzzled while eating, why Chen Qiwen hadn't appeared yet.

The text is so quiet that he doesn't squint and eats by himself.

Xu was hungry, and the food was delicious, so they quickly swept up the food on the table.

After everyone had eaten, Mu Shi found that there was hot tea on the coffee table next to him, and served tea to everyone.

Xiao Yue had just taken a few sips when she saw Xiao Xing cross the threshold and enter the house.

"My lord, have you all eaten?"

"Well, it's hard little apricot girl. Wen said politely.

"Do you want to visit the garden, or go back to the house to rest?"

Wen Youyou looked at Xiao Yue and asked, "What are you going to do?"

Xiao Yue was a little curious about this yard, and she said without thinking: "I just had a full meal, I want to visit the yard and eat by the way." ”

After saying that, she felt that there was something wrong with what she said, after all, the purpose of this time was not to buy a manor, but...

She looked sideways at Cheng Shuang, and then asked, "Shuang'er, what do you want to do?"
