Lu Yingnian walked to the stone door, inserted the key into the keyhole, put his left hand on a recess on the stone door, pushed and turned first, only to hear the stone door rolling, and slowly opened. At the same time, the sunlight outside seemed to be impatient, and as soon as the stone door opened, it slanted in through the gap, and the tunnel turned from dark survey to light, and finally everywhere was shrouded in warm sun.

Yuan Hao didn't know how long he had been sleeping, he was already used to the eyes of the night, and when he saw the scorching sun outside, he felt dazzling and painful, and he squinted desperately. He sniffled, and the cool breeze outside slowly blew into the tunnel, and the wind carried bursts of floral fragrance.

Lu Yingnian took the lead in walking out of the tunnel, and Du Chengbei saw that Yuan Hao didn't move, thinking that he was trying to delay time, he snorted coldly, pushed him hard, and shouted, "What are you doing in a daze?

Yuan Hao was pushed by him like this, staggered a few steps, almost fell, turned his head and glared at Du Chengbei, didn't say anything else, and walked out of the tunnel. Out of the stone gate, only to see a bluestone road to the direction of the house to extend away, the left and right sides are planted with flowers and plants, the cluster of flowers is brocade, full of one, the stone wall on one side of the eaves is full of vines, climbing a certain flower, petite and fragile, clustered into a cluster, or yellow or white, yellow like xia, white like snow.

Originally, Yuan Hao didn't know much about flowers and plants, but he only knew that they were flowers and grass, and he couldn't see the difference at all, so he stared at it for a while, and just thought: "The owner of this compound is also weird, he actually doesn't let his subordinates prune the flowers and plants, and let the vines climb to the wall and the house, and then the Zhu Courtyard will become a vine compound, so good?"

The three of them walked through the corridor, walked a short distance, and turned a few corners, but they saw that the eaves of the compound were all vermilion, and the doors and windows were also red, as if it was the real "Zhu Courtyard".

Lu Yingnian then led the way, the three of them walked across a small stone bridge, came to a large pond, there is a fine willow by the pond, the willow leaves are drooping, the clear water is trickling, a few white lotus flowers bloom in the pond, a piece of lotus leaves are like a flag, a few red carp swim leisurely, rippling, there is a sense of leisure and tranquility.

Yuan Hao followed Lu Yingnian and walked around the pond for a while, and saw a pavilion in the distance, and there were two maidservants waiting outside the pavilion. When he looked up, his brows furrowed slightly, and sure enough, the appearance of the pavilion was also painted vermilion. He thought to himself that this vermilion compound was red everywhere, and Bacheng couldn't get rid of the wife in Lu Yingnian's mouth, but he loved red so much, it was inevitably too much.

Lu Yingnian walked another ten or so steps, stopped, and said, "Young man, please wait for a while. With that, he lowered his head and walked towards the pavilion, whispering something to a servant girl, who glanced at Yuan Hao, and then walked into the pavilion. When it was too late, the maidservant girl went out of the pavilion and said a few more words, and Lu Yingnian bowed her head and walked back.

Yuan Hao looked at Lu Yingnian a middle-aged man, with rough hands and feet, his feet were raised in the shape of an inner eight, walking on tiptoe, looking very funny, and secretly thought: "Interesting, interesting, this lady doesn't know what to think, she has to let a big man learn to walk as a eunuch." I've only heard the grandfather of the island owner talk about the appearance of a eunuch walking, and I never thought I would see it in a man. 」

Lu Yingnian didn't know what Yuan Hao was thinking, and said with a smile: "Let the young man wait for a long time, Madame is invited." 」

Yuan Hao nodded and strode outside the pavilion, and the two maidservants suddenly stepped forward and signaled that he must not move forward.

I only heard a voice from inside the pavilion, saying, "It's okay, let him in." When the two maidservants heard this, they immediately retreated to their places.

Yuan Hao walked into the pavilion, only to see a noble lady leaning on the railing in the pavilion, looking to be in her thirties, with a slightly beautiful face, wearing a red Luo long robe, a red jade bead inlaid with a golden hairpin on her hair, jewels in her hands, a cold face, and looking at Yuan Hao from top to bottom.

Yuan Hao bowed his head and arched his hand, "Under Yuan Hao, I have seen Madame. I don't know how Yuan Hao can be virtuous, thanks to his wife for being so favored?"

The lady didn't say a word, she looked at Yuan Hao proudly, her eyes were getting colder and colder for some reason, and faintly, it seemed that there was still murderous intent.

Yuan Hao didn't hear the words for a long time, and felt strange, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that the lady was actually slapped in the face. Yuan Hao was caught off guard, only to hear a loud snap, his head was dizzy, his cheeks ached, he retreated again and again, his steps were unsteady, and he fell out of the pavilion.

Yuan Hao was beaten inexplicably, a little displeased, and said casually: "What are you doing with this mother-in-law?

Originally, Lu Yingnian, Du Chengbei, and the two maidservants outside the pavilion saw Yuan Hao being beaten, and they didn't feel anything strange on their faces, and they didn't look strange. Du Chengbei couldn't get used to Yuan Hao's attitude the most, and because he was beaten, he was so happy that he almost wanted to laugh out loud and applaud loudly.

However, as soon as Yuan Hao's words came out, the four subordinates were all shocked, their faces turned pale, and they only heard two plops, and the two maids took the lead in kneeling on the ground, while Lu and Du rushed forward and knelt on the ground later. The four of them said in unison, "Madame spares her life, Madame spares her life!"

When Yuan Hao saw their appearance, the anger in his heart turned into confusion, and he just thought, "I was beaten and it wasn't this mother-in-law who was beaten, what is there to spare my life?"

The lady looked at Yuan Hao from inside the pavilion and said sharply, "Yuan Hao, you are so bold, what did you call me?"

Yuan Hao's eyes rolled, and he saw that the four people kneeling on the ground were trembling, and when he met his wife again, he smiled coldly, thinking that the other party knew that he was Yuan Hao of the Emei faction, and now he had not cleared his name, she only needed to report to the alliance, and the chasing soldiers would inevitably come, and everything would be over. He had a brain teaser and smiled, "Madam, misunderstanding, misunderstanding, in the following it means that you are a beautiful woman. When a martial artist sees a beautiful woman on the rivers and lakes, he will always say how the woman is born, isn't that a compliment to other people's beauty?"

When Lu and Du heard this, their faces were very strange, they had been in the rivers and lakes when they were young, and they knew that the words Yuan Hao said were all used to scold people, where were they used to praise others? But they knew that Mrs. was moody and changeable, and she was happy, and she would never be soft on rewarding others, and she was angry, but she was punished whenever she met people, without warning, and they did not want to suffer together, and they did not dare to say the true meaning of those words.

The lady's face was slightly softened, her eyes looked at Lu and Du, and asked, "Is that really the case?"

Lu Yingnian and Du Chengbei understood that this was for the two of them, and they were uneasy, and lied in unison: "Yes, yes! What Yuan Shaoxia said is good, Jiang and Jianghu friends all praise beautiful women like this. 」

The lady nodded lightly, looked at Yuan Hao and said, "Then I'm wrong to blame you. There seemed to be anger in his tone. After all, women still love beauty, and when they hear others praise themselves generously, they are naturally overjoyed in their hearts.

Yuan Hao said in his heart: "This mother-in-law slapped me for no reason, she is completely ashamed, she will beat me if she wants to, I just say a word back, these subordinates are afraid to kneel and beg for mercy, and if they want to provoke this mother-in-law, no one will have good fruit to eat." 」
