"Ahh

With a long and comfortable yawn, Xu Sheng woke up and woke up the coachman who was dreaming sweetly.

"Official, you slept well."

"It's okay, it's okay." Xu Sheng yawned constantly, opened the curtain, and poked his head out, it turned out that the rain had stopped.

"Yesterday's rain was really evil, it rained all day, and it didn't stop for half a minute." The coachman had nothing to say, and deliberately wanted to shorten the distance with Xu Sheng, and he was full of thoughts about the reward that Xu Sheng promised yesterday.

If nothing else, I'm sure I'll be there today. The coachman thought that if the two of them could get closer, he would naturally get more money.

"Huh!?" Xu Sheng turned his head, his side was empty, and the Taoist priest had disappeared.

"Coachman, can you see where the Taoist priest has gone?" Xu Sheng asked suspiciously.

"I didn't see it, maybe I was in a hurry."

"Oh" Xu Sheng replied casually, thinking: Didn't that Taoist priest claim to be idle? Why are you in such a hurry? However, he immediately thought about it again and said softly: "Hey, a person with a not very bright brain is more reasonable to do things unreasonably. ”

Now is a good time for the rain to clear up. As the so-called: the clouds are selling and the rain is shining, the color is bright, the morning sun is dewing, and the distant mountains are completely different from yesterday's scene. Xu Sheng walked out of the carriage and stood on the wood, looking into the distance; The scene in front of you is truly beautiful and picturesque.

It's good to rain and sunny,

All things are as pure as ever.

The blue sky is clear,

The grass is like spring.

Xu Sheng felt something in his heart, and casually spoke, and this beautiful scenery swept away most of the gloom in his heart.

"Good poetry!" Just as Xu Sheng was in the fugue, the groom picked his thumb and patted the horse's ass at an inopportune time.

"You also know poetry?" Xu Sheng turned around and asked.

"I don't understand," the groom smiled wryly.

"Then you."

"Uh......" The coachman touched his nose, trying to ease the embarrassment.

"The sky is also long, the earth is also long, the past life is not visible, and the future life is hard to find."

On the long and winding official road, a ragged Taoist priest was traveling south, singing loudly.

"A disbeliever in destiny, interesting, interesting." The Taoist priest muttered to himself, his face beaming.

"It's a pity, that number of lives has never been justified! At first, I didn't believe it. The Taoist priest walked faster and faster, and in the blink of an eye, he was a hundred zhang away, and in the blink of an eye, he had already reached the sky. He was still saying something, but his voice grew quieter and quieter, and after a moment it was completely gone.

When Xu Sheng stood in front of the gate of the Xu family, Rao was already prepared, or he was taken aback.

I saw that: the jade step is the head of the people,

The vermilion wall is as high as a building.

Ten miles of mulberry shade,

The stone lion roared wildly.

The pines and cypresses are intertwined with the ancient,

The carved beams and paintings are handsome.

Majestic and elegant,

Solemnity and tranquility.

"Good style" Xu Sheng sincerely admired. Originally, he thought that other people's descriptions of the Xu family were too exaggerated, mostly imaginary, and the real situation also needed to be greatly discounted, but now it seems that where is the exaggeration? It's clearly said that it's small.

The Xu family really deserves to be the first family in Nanjun!

Xu Sheng stared at the dragon flying and phoenix dancing on the plaque, the word "Xu" that was bigger than a person, and he couldn't calm down for a long time. He took a deep breath, tried to contain his nervousness, and slowly walked up the jade steps.

"Smack! Syllable! ”

After hesitating for two breaths, Xu Sheng still knocked on the door of the Xu family hard.

"Squeak!"

The door opened. An old man, dressed in a dark robe, stood behind the door and poked his head out. Xu Sheng looked inside, there was no one else around the old man, which meant that the old man opened the door alone!

It's amazing! The door of the Xu family is not much bigger than the others, and a door costs a thousand pounds, this old man really has the strength.

"Sir...... Can I help you? The old man's words were quite polite, but his face was solemn, and his voice was like a reckless cow, which made people feel a little oppressive.

"Xiaosheng came to the door." Xu Sheng gave a salute and was respectful.

"Pitch!?" The old man raised his eyelids and said in a deep voice, "Is there a recommendation?" ”

"This" Xu Sheng took out the guest order from his arms and presented it respectfully.

"Disrespectful, disrespectful, come from afar, and hope to please.

The old man flashed, raised his hand to welcome Xu Sheng in, and finally squeezed out a smile on his stiff face. Although laughing is more ugly than crying.

This token is very easy to use!

Xu Sheng muttered in his heart, following the old man through the Xu family's boundless mansion.

It's huge! One came and went, three in and four out, Xu Sheng was completely confused, if it weren't for the sun in the sky, he wouldn't even be able to tell the difference between the southeast and the northwest.

"Follow me," the old man kindly reminded. Xu Sheng naturally didn't dare to slack off, his steps were fast, and his eyes were not idle.

rockeries made of Shoushan stone, statues made of granite, steps made of green jade, and railings carved in white; Also, the two or three zhang tall fire mulberry, the ginkgo biloba with the thickness of a few people, the green chrysanthemum that is a specialty of Nanjun, and the orchid that should have grown in the valley... And also... Better.

There are some that Xu Sheng recognizes, but more of them are rare things that he simply doesn't recognize and never hear of.

"Today, I know that Xu Menshen is true, and it turns out that all the Chinese words are true." Xu Sheng smacked his tongue and admired, this is a high-ranking family, a big family!

After abducting for half an hour, Xu Sheng was hungry, and the old man finally led him to a two-story building. The bright and golden "Welcome Pavilion" on the upper floor has already explained everything.

"Please" As soon as the old man bowed, two servants dressed as servants stepped forward and invited Xu Sheng in.

"Wow!"

As soon as he entered, as soon as Xu Sheng looked up, he saw a rather imposing ancient painting hanging in the middle hall, and a welcoming pine almost occupied half of the wall. Is this painting good? Xu Sheng didn't know. He doesn't know how to draw, but he thinks it's quite magnificent, after all, it's big.

Next to the welcome pine are two words, on the left side of the book "good as water", on the right side of the writing "good as water", on the right side of the writing "virtue loaded". These two words are still very meaningful, but the "word" is written poorly, in Xu Sheng's opinion, it can only be called general, decent, tangible and godless.

The old man poured Xu Sheng a cup of tea, and then clenched his fists and said, "Mr. is far away, I have to report to the sixth master, and I will accompany you soon." ”

"It's okay, it's okay" Xu Sheng got up and saluted back, wishing that the old man would go quickly, after all, no one would like the old man who has been keeping a straight face and the faint feeling of persecution.

After the old man left, the two little guys also retreated, and Xu Sheng was the only one left in the big room. With no one around, he was also happy and comfortable, bored, so he had to look around.

The decoration in this "Welcome Pavilion" is really simple, or it can be called simple, except for the tables, chairs, tea sets, and a few calligraphy and paintings, there is nothing else. Xu Sheng didn't understand furniture, but it was the inscriptions on the pillars that aroused his interest.

Two pillars, one side and one row, on the left is "although the gate is ugly, it is always open", and on the right is "the family wealth is scattered to welcome guests". The expression is nothing more than the meaning of recruiting talents, which is really boring, but the "words" are not badly written, at least in Xu Sheng's eyes.

"Good words" Xu Sheng observed carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt bright. That word can really be said: there is movement and stillness, like a dragon and snake, gentle and graceful, and self-contained.

"It's a pity," Xu Sheng shouted after a long time. He is a pity that he naturally has a pity for the reason, the inscription on the pillar is good, but the "meaning" is a little worse, and the two words on the wall, although the "meaning" is there, but the writing is very ordinary.

"There is no such thing as a perfect law." Xu Sheng muttered to himself, paced back to the table, picked up the teacup, and lifted the lid.

It's amazing.

The lid was closed, and there was a "cloud" surrounding the mouth of the cup, which dissipated after a few breaths. Xu Sheng looked into the cup, and a few reddish-brown tea leaves looked like a woman dancing in a long skirt, fluttering left and right.

"Good tea" Xu Sheng drank it all, and the taste didn't taste too much, but he felt that it was very thirst-quenching.

The words were also rewarded, and the tea was drunk, but the people still didn't come. Xu Sheng was a little anxious, seeing the meal, his stomach was uncomfortable! Although the tea is good, it can't quench hunger after all.

It was useless to be anxious, Xu Sheng had no choice but to stare twice and sit dryly. In fact, he is very empathetic, after all, the Xu family's house is too big, no matter whether it is the sixth master or the seventh master, as long as he walks with his legs, it will take some effort.

"Hahahaha!"

A hearty laugh brought back Xu Sheng's thoughts.

The Lord is coming!

Xu Sheng hurriedly stood up from the chair, his expression was grim, his eyes were solemn, and it was fake to say that he was not nervous.
