Chapter 458: Be careful

Everyone stepped on the steps, and several servants dressed in long robes and white hats with blue flowers bowed down to greet them, and standing at the front was a white-bearded elder with his hand on his chest and said with a pleasant face: "Selan." ”

Song Nan nodded and smiled, "Selan." ”

Behind him, Hou Dabiao muttered: "Is there a dead person in this family?" It's bad luck to let us adults live in the house of the dead. ”

Wang Yong was stunned and said, "How can you see it? ”

"Hey, don't you see, these people are all filial piety, No! White hat on the head. Also, these people scold people when they exit the mouth, and when they see our adults open their mouths, they scold 'perverts', but fortunately, our adults are not polite and also scold them perverts......"

Hou Dabiao's voice was not small, and the words almost entered the ears of these servants, and the old man in the lead changed color on his face, and he looked at Hou Dabiao angrily.

Song Nan couldn't smile bitterly, and hurriedly scolded: "If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense." After that, he turned his head and explained to the old man: "This old man, my subordinates don't know your clothes, and they don't understand your way of greeting, so don't blame it, it's rude." ”

The old man's face turned slightly pale, and he bowed down and said: "Allah Allah will bless Song Houye, and Allah Allah will also punish those who speak indeed, Song Houye, the old immortal is the steward of Guanxue Tower, and obeys the order to serve Song Houye's living and eating, and Song Houye please come in." ”

Song Nan smiled and nodded, "I'm tired." ”

Old man Shan turned around and walked inside, and a cadre of servants also retreated into the building, Song Nan followed behind, Wang Yong hurriedly came up and asked softly: "It turns out that these are all Hui people, are they all wearing white hats?" ”

Song Nan said: "Yes, the white hat is holy and pious in the eyes of the Hui people, which is different from our customs. And the old man just now saluted me and called me 'Seran', which is an auspicious greeting, and I also greet, which is politeness. You two don't understand anything, and you say what kind of pervert you are scolding each other, but you really have it. ”

Hou Dabiao scratched his head awkwardly and smiled: "I see, adults know a lot, have adults come here before?" ”

Song Nan shook his head and said, "These etiquettes can actually be known by paying a little attention, and there is no need to come here deliberately." Song Nan thought in his heart: It turned out that the etiquette of the Hui people in later generations hundreds of years later has not changed, and at that time, he had a lot of contacts with several Hui business customers, and he still remembered their etiquette and taboos, but he didn't expect it to come in handy here.

"The most taboo for the Hui people is to tarnish their beliefs and insult their personalities, even if we look at these Hui people as servants, we can't laugh at them wantonly, there are many taboos in the future, I will tell you to listen, remember not to understand and don't talk nonsense." Song Nan admonished.

Hou Dabiao and Wang Yong nodded in agreement, everyone went up the steps to the bottom of the corridor, and the old man surnamed Flash turned around and said: "Lord Song, there are more than 200 people under your subordinates, I'm afraid this building is uninhabitable, can you please settle down in the courtyard by yourself?" ”

Song Nan smiled: "Is there a house?" ”

The old man surnamed Shan pointed to the dozen or so houses in the corner of the courtyard and said: "It has been prepared for a long time, it is spacious and comfortable, your family will definitely be satisfied, how about I order someone to take them there to settle down?" ”

Song Nan also knew that it was impossible for two hundred cavalry to live in the building, so he smiled and said, "Then there will be labor." ”

The old man surnamed Shan ordered the two servants to turn back, and led a cadre of personal guard cavalry and the cavalry school selected by the Fusi of Beizhen to turn to the house next to the building, and seeing that there were still more than a dozen guards around Song Nan who were not moving, the old man surnamed Shan said: "These dozen strong men also go to settle down." ”

Wang Yong raised his eyebrows and shouted: "These are Hou Ye's personal guards, how can they be protected if they live outside?" My lord lives in your shabby house, what are the rules? Still let people live? ”

The old man surnamed Shan was startled, and hurriedly said, "That's it, let's invite your guests into the house." ”

The old man ordered someone to open the door of the building where the thick woven felt carpet was hung, and stepped in first, Song Nan and others also followed in, and as soon as they entered the building, a warm fragrance suddenly came to their nostrils, and the light inside was slightly dark, but after a moment after their eyes adapted, everyone opened their mouths in surprise.

The huge candles in the hall of the building are burning, and the decorations are exquisite, the ground is covered with thick carpets, the tables and chairs are placed with fluffy pillows, and the first one is a huge incense case, and the two ends are carved with beasts; The square wood carving screen is hung with a colored pen painting screen, painted with flowers and birds, ladies, plum orchids, chrysanthemums, bamboos and other things; In the corner of the house, a one-man tall Huangtong crane held its head and neck high to the sky, and a faint green smoke was spitting out of its mouth, and the fragrance was sprayed from the bird's beak.

"Tut-tut, I really let the adults guess correctly, it's really a fragrant small building, how much money does this guy have to spend." Hou Dabiao smacked his lips and praised.

Wang Yong said: "This is still the lobby downstairs, and I don't know how exquisite it is upstairs, but it is really the property of the prince's family, ho, amazing." ”

"Please change your clothes and shoes." The old man surnamed Shan, with a hint of contempt, looked at Song Nan and the others with a shocked expression and said.

"Change clothes and shoes?" Wang Yong frowned and said, "Do you think we are dirty?" ”

The old man's eyes fell on the ground where everyone stood at the door, and saw that the clean and soft velvet carpet was already a mess, and everyone stepped on the muddy water outside, and at this moment the carpet in this small place at the door was not touched.

Everyone was a little embarrassed, such a clean and elegant small building was messed up by their own group of people as soon as they entered the door, but there was some guilt, even Hou Dabiao felt that the old man's request to change clothes and shoes was not too much, but at this time he heard Song Nan say: "Uncle Shan, please order someone to remove this carpet." ”

The old man was stunned and said, "Removed the carpet? How is this withdrawn? ”

Song Nan smiled: "If the carpet is removed, it won't be trampled on by us." ”

The old man said: "Isn't it enough for the adults to change into the clean cloth shoes we prepared?" ”

Song Nan smiled and said: "Uncle, I don't have this habit, otherwise we won't live here, and go back to my yamen to live, and when you go back, you tell your master, and say that we don't want to step on your exquisite carpet, how about it?" ”

The old man was shocked: "Don't don't, don't be, adults can do whatever they like, villains are too talkative." ”

Song Nan smiled and said, "Don't you need to change your shoes and clothes?" ”

"No...... No. ”

Song Nan smiled and took a few steps forward with dirty boots, and suddenly left a line of dirty footprints on the clean carpet, Song Nan looked back at the footprints and smiled: "It's a pity, but this is like stepping on the first line of footprints on the snow that no one has stepped on, and I feel very happy." ”

Hou Dabiao and Wang Yong were stunned, what kind of perverted psychology is this, my lord just taught us to follow the local customs, and after a while, it was like this, but when I saw Song Nan beckoning: "Come on, we are all stunned, let's go upstairs to see how luxurious the sleeping place is." ”

After they coaxed up the stairs, the old man surnamed Flash looked at the red carpet on the muddy staircase and smiled bitterly, and muttered a curse: "Allah will punish you." ”

The delicacy upstairs did not disappoint everyone, it was a little more exquisite than the lobby downstairs, especially the big bed arranged for Song Nan to sleep on, Song Nan smiled when he saw it, the bed covers were goose plush, and people sat up and sank in for most of their bodies.

The furnishings in the room are also very elegant, there is a pair of Yaoqin on the small table by the window, and there is a big dresser in one corner, which is embedded in it is not a copper mirror, but an authentic large glass mirror, you need to know that this kind of mirror is a foreign thing, once such fragile goods are safely sold, the price can be called sky-high, which makes Song Nan interested in the original owner of this room, when others were scurrying around looking for An Sheng's room, Song Nan carefully checked in this own room for a long time, Also found in the drawer of the dresser found a thin sheet of piano scores, on which is a hairpin small pen copied piano notation fingering and other instructions, at this time, Song Nan is sure that the original owner of this snow viewing building must be a woman, no doubt that it is furnishings and taste, it does not look like a man's residence.

Soon after, a group of Hui servants in white hats began to roll up all the carpets on the ground and evacuate, such a precious carpet could not withstand the ravages of these people, if they were not quickly put away, I am afraid that after a few days of this group of people moved in, they would all become mud shell pot helmets.

Song Nan watched those people take away the carpet with a hint of a nonchalant smile, although he didn't want to be this annoying role, but since he knew that this was the property of King Qing's mansion, and it was the intention of King Anhua to live here, Song Nan had to be more careful. Change shoes and clothes? Isn't that a joke? What is the difference between this and active disarmament? If something happens, you can't even run fast in open cloth shoes.

Song Nan even ordered Wang Yong to use a glass of water to extinguish the smoke from the crane-shaped incense burner in the lobby downstairs, who knows what is in this incense piece? Don't come overnight, everyone is tied up with five flowers, that's a joke.

Of course, this is just a plan for the worst, Song Nan also understands that before a showdown and the contradiction has not intensified, no one dares to openly attack himself, if something happens to him here, it will be a hundred times stricter than Yang Yiqing being killed, although it is difficult to distinguish between friend and foe in this Ningxia town, but it is not yet the time for the needle to face Maimang.
