Chapter 116: Old Servant of the Peach Forest

readx;

On the second day, I changed into a set of coarse cloth shirts, and drove the ox cart from the old grandson's house to Murong Villa to deliver firewood. I hurriedly handed over the prepared pound of tobacco leaves www.biquge.info my uncle was unwell last night, and I came to deliver firewood today. The porter didn't embarrass me, but sent a little servant to follow me all the time. I didn't have a chance to unload the firewood, and I slipped out of the ashes.

came back to discuss with Liu Qingfeng, but Liu Qingfeng persuaded me, you can't hold it for only two or three days, brother, I support you. I said that in the past two days, I have patronized the gift-giving, and I haven't even seen the shadow of Mingjiao, and I don't have much silver with me, you see?

Liu Qingfeng said that I support you spiritually, there is no way to borrow money!

On this day, I went to Murong Villa to deliver firewood, and I became more familiar with the concierge for several days, and I didn't leave empty-handed every time, and the words between the two were also lively. The porter's name is Murong Laifu, I invited him to drink at noon this day, and took the opportunity to ask if I could find a guy who made a living in the house?

When I was studying art in the Taishan School, the master did not teach martial arts in the first year, and I did the work of chopping wood, burning fires, carrying water, and planting vegetables. Laifu said that I will talk to the three masters at night, but ......

I gritted my teeth and handed over another five taels of silver, then please ask Brother Laifu. In less than a few days, the money from selling Ji Junbi was all spent, and I couldn't help but be grateful to Ji Junbi, if I had the opportunity to sell it a few more times, I wouldn't make a lot of money, I thought to myself.

On the second day, I went to deliver firewood, and Laifu found me with a smile and said that your business is done, and the third housekeeper and I have spent a long time trying to help you with this errand you want, don't mess up. I said that's natural, Brother Laifu, I'm new to the villa, and there are some places that have exceeded the rules, so you can bear more.

Laifu took me to see the three butlers, I behaved properly, and the three butlers briefly asked me about my place of origin and so on, and walked away impatiently.

Laifu took me to the vegetable garden, and I saw that there were ten acres of land, which was much brighter than the one acre and three points of land in the Taishan faction. Laifu Dao, in the future, you will take care of the garden here, the garden is next door to the peach orchard, we, the people of the outer courtyard, there is no communication, don't go over, otherwise my brother and I can't help you. I thanked him again and again.

It's the middle of March, and the cucumbers, spinach, peppers, and peas planted in early spring have all sprouted and grown leaves, and it is rainy in the south of the Yangtze River, so I don't have to worry too much about watering, but some vines are climbing, and I have to be responsible for setting up a shelf, pulling out the weeds in the garden, and catching insects by the way, but I am not busy. It's just that I'm new to the house, and I haven't had a chance to go to the inner courtyard to have a look.

Next to the vegetable garden is a peach forest, spreading to the mountain, hundreds of acres, it is the peach blossom season, from this side it looks very beautiful.

One morning, after finishing my farm work, seeing that there was no one around, I turned over the garden to enjoy the peach blossoms. The pavilions and pavilions are hidden in the peach blossoms of the mountains, which is very beautiful. I wonder if she is also enjoying the peach blossoms in the room?

I saw that there was a hut on the edge of the peach forest, and there was an old man at the door who was basking in the sun, and the old man was holding a wine jug in his hand in coarse linen, and he was probably the next person who took care of the peach orchard. There was a sound of snoring over there, probably asleep.

After watching for a while, I heard someone next door calling me, and I hurried back to the garden, but I came to find food. The food of the people in Murong Villa is delicious, but the amount is too small. I am a northerner, and I can eat four or five bowls of rice per meal, until I end up with a Qin rice bucket. I didn't pay attention to these jokes.

After lunch, I went back to the vegetable garden, thinking that there was nothing to do in the afternoon, so I might as well find a way to go to the inner courtyard for a walk, and if anyone asked, they would say that I was lost. Then it suddenly began to rain, and I remembered that the old man in the hut was still sleeping, so I went back to the firewood room and took an umbrella and brought it to him.

When I came here, I saw the old man snoring like thunder, and I was afraid of waking him up, so I went over and covered him with a coat and helped him hold the umbrella. After doing this, I suddenly felt a little stupid, so I just woke him up and went back to the house? I shouted twice, but there was no response, so I had to stand with an umbrella.

Murong Villa in the rain is even more hazy, filled with mist, surrounded by halfway up the mountainside, like a jade belt, like a fairyland on earth.

Murong Villa really knows how to choose a place, this mountain and a village, I am afraid that half of the aura of Jinling City will be taken away, I feel relaxed and happy, secretly reciting the half-inch river and mountain formula, only to feel that the aura of heaven and earth is swarming to cleanse the meridians in the body. After a while, he entered a state of self-forgetfulness. The true qi in my body was slowly filled, and although the four lakes were not full, they no longer became an obstacle to the operation of the true qi, and my consciousness spread like a tentacle. This feeling was experienced in that night terror array, when my realm fell into the fifth or sixth rank of the middle realm.

Ahem!

I came back to my senses and saw that the old man had woken up and looked at me with a smile. I hurriedly saluted, it was raining, and I saw that the old gentleman was sleepy, and I didn't dare to disturb the gentleman.

The old man smiled, I almost forgot my name, but there are a few little guys who like to call me old immortal, you can call me old immortal.

How dare I call it that? The old man said, I see that your martial arts are not weak, how can you be willing to be a vegetable farmer in Murong Villa?

I said in my heart that I came for Murong Qiushui, do you believe it? I said on my lips, I admire Murong Villa very much, this villa is built against the mountain, Zhong Lingyu is beautiful, and it is a collection of the essence of heaven and earth, no wonder the Murong family has stood tall in the rivers and lakes for hundreds of years, and it is the first beauty in the rivers and lakes. If you can make a living here, it will also be counted as a creation, and when you go out in the future, you can brag to your friends.

The old man took a sip of wine, casually threw the wine jug over, I took it and took a big sip, the wine is sweet and mellow, it is by no means comparable to the ordinary products in those restaurants, praise, good wine.

The old man asked, do you still know Murong Xiaoya?

I knew that if I said too much, I would lose, so I even shook my head and said, I just admired it in my heart. The old man laughed and said, you kid is real, the chivalrous guests who want to see the little girl at the gate of the villa every day are like carp crossing the river, and it is rare to enter the village as a servant like you, come and drink a few more glasses with me.

After a while, we drank a pot of wine, and the old man asked if he could play chess? The old man estimated that he was itchy and took out chess to play against me. I saw that the old man's chess skills were not very good, similar to the old Liu Tou of the warehouse management department, but I was interested in making friends to see if I could get some useful information, so I didn't do my best. After four sets, there was a draw.

It was getting dark, and the old man said that today is the end of the day, and he will come back tomorrow!

Back to the Jiangnan office, Liu Qingfeng asked me how I was going, I smiled wryly and shook my head, Jiang Chong invited guests in the evening, and called some local martial arts people with heads and faces, what Jiangnan sword Song Chengqing, the chief helmsman of the waterway Sui Donglai and others, are mostly some masters of five or six grades.

Taking advantage of the toast during the banquet, Jiang Chong proposed that when he returned to Beijing, he could consider setting up a branch in Jiangnan under the discussion with the big boss, so that Jiangnan Road and Shandong Road would be connected, and the layout of the Central Plains Dart Bureau could continue to go south. I had something in my heart, so I said a few perfunctory words, only saying that when I returned to the capital, I would report Director Jiang's thoughts to the big boss.

The banquet was dispersed, Jiang Chong said that since everyone has gotten together, why don't you go to Yunmen 18 tonight, how about you go to Yunmen 18, I heard that a new beauty has come recently, she looks good, and she is still a chick, why don't you go and have a good time?

I woke up immediately from drinking, and hurriedly refused, then Jiangnan knife Song Chengqing put his arm around my shoulder, brother won't have stage fright?

I said I'll go, what are you afraid of?
