The old man froze for a moment, then stopped sweeping the teacup, looked up at her, "Do you also like to read martial arts novels?"

"Yeah, Jin Yong Gulong Liang Yusheng... all of them."

Bai Xiran responded with a few random words, and used the voice of chatting to cover up the sound of security guards passing by outside.

In a house like Feng's, the servants don't know how many people there are. As long as they behave in a normal way, they won't attract attention.

On the contrary, the old man became interested because of her answer.

He stroked his gray beard, "I'm here, and I'm responsible for cleaning the tea sets."

"Yes yes yes... people in our family love to drink tea." Bai Xiran thought, the old man is addicted to tea like his life, the ancestor of the Feng family is more traditional and stubborn than him, presumably his hobbies are almost the same.

"Do you understand tea?" the old man asked again.

Bai Xiran thought for a while, "I've read "The Classic of Tea" and tasted some teas. Most of them are ordinary varieties like Pu'er Longjing...By the way, the house seems to be very lively recently, as if there are guests here?"

The old man did not doubt that he was there, and nodded directly, "The old man's old friend is here, and it is more lively than usual."

He smiled at Bai Xiran, "The person is in the main house, go through here...a 360-meter corridor, and then pass through the atrium and flower hall with bodyguards..."

What kind of construction is this?
Is it the palace?
Bai Xiran felt helpless.

She didn't have enough time before she came, and she couldn't get the internal structure diagram of Fengzhai.

Now it's hard to sneak in, but from what the old man said, I can't get in tonight no matter what.

"Are you also interested in the old gentleman's guests?"

"Ah? No... just curious, after all, we haven't seen a new character for a long time."

The old man gave her a meaningful look, then simply lowered his eyes and continued to clean the tea set.

"You don't need to clean up the tea stains here, do you?" Bai Xiran suddenly asked, looking for a topic at random.

"Why?"

"This set of tea sets is made of wood. It's dark and you can't see the specific wood, but it looks like a high-quality golden sandalwood... This thing of yours is expensive, and there are very few things that can leave marks on it on weekdays. Such a layer of tea stains can be accumulated, presumably because it has been used for many years."

Bai Xiran took a closer look, "He really cherishes the tea set, just like ordinary people twist beads. After a long time, the beads have a spirit. Although they lose their brilliance, they still have a charm. The tea set should be the same..."

After she finished speaking, she looked outside and finally the security guard had already passed by.

This was a sigh of relief.

So he found an excuse indiscriminately, "I seem to have stayed here for too long, and if I don't go back, I'm afraid I will be scolded."

"Wait." The old man sat on the chair, and the action of cleaning his hands had already stopped.

He slowly raised his head and looked at the other party, with a smile in his eyes, "Since you are not a person who works in the main house, you can't get in if you want to. There will be a small banquet here in two days, and the guests inside and this Fengcheng People with heads and faces will come. If you want to see something, you can go in with this thing."

He handed over the "mini broom" in his hand.

Bai Xiran was slightly taken aback, and continued subconsciously.

At first glance, it is just an ordinary cleaning tool.

For a moment, the smile on his mouth almost couldn't hold back...

"When the time comes, take it and tell the people outside, and they will let you in."

"Alright, alright, thank you, old man." Bai Xiran stuffed it into his pocket, and didn't even bother to take a closer look. He was afraid that people would notice if he delayed, so he hurried back the same way.

As for the old man behind...

Well, it doesn't matter what his identity is, as long as he is not discovered!
