Wulong Inn

Chapter 21...

It rained intermittently all night. When the first ray of sunshine appeared in the morning, the sound of thunder and rain disappeared without a trace. Only the dewdrops on the flowers and grass and the accumulated water on the low ground could detect the traces of yesterday's rain.The rain in Cangzhou is not abundant, even in summer, the rain cannot last for one night.

Standing in front of the window, Gao Fei looked at the clean sky with some disappointment, "Couldn't have left already." Through the window, looking at the closed wooden door of the east room, Gao Fei thought so.

After a simple breakfast, Gao Fei slowly crossed out of the room, walked to the wooden door of the east room, hesitated for a moment, then withdrew his hand that was outstretched to knock on the door, and thought to himself, "Am I in a hurry, It’s just been seen once.”Gao Fei couldn't figure out why he was so interested in the person he had just met yesterday, and walked around the door twice in distress, but finally didn't knock on it.

Taking out the tea set from the house, Gao Feiyi still sat on the stone chair under the tree.After taking a sip of the unnamed inferior tea, he thought to himself, "Anyway, I have nothing to do, so I'll just wait here. If I haven't left yet, I'll come out soon. If I've already left... then it's because of fate." Right", thinking like this, I didn't think there was anything wrong with the word 'Fate' that suddenly appeared in my mind.

The weather after the rain is extremely cool, and it is the ultimate enjoyment to lean comfortably on the stone chair, poke a sip of tea from time to time, and steal half a day of leisure.Gao Fei found that the biggest advantage of returning to ancient times is that the pace of life has suddenly slowed down a lot. No matter where it is, whether it is in the fields or in the alleys, everyone is so comfortable and leisurely.They are also planning for three meals and running for survival, but they are different from the numbness or calculations of the previous life. People's eyes are full of tranquility and satisfaction, as if there is no trace of haze.

"He who is content is always happy," Gao Fei sighed sincerely.

The sun is getting higher and higher, the sky is already bright, the original silence around is suddenly broken, the men shout, the women call out, the children cry, the bright oil is poured into the pot when cooking, and the spatulas are staggered when cooking, as if The mute mode was lifted, the original cold and distant atmosphere suddenly dissipated, and the breath of life permeated in from all directions.Confused by the uproar, Gao Fei couldn't help but look towards the moon hole leading to the outside.

Waking up from a coma, Gao Fei hadn't been out of the small courtyard yet, and he didn't know what it was like outside. "It seems that my sister said that there are many residents here, she is not exaggerating at all," Gao Fei secretly said.Just as he was considering whether to get up and go out to have a look, he suddenly heard a 'Peng' sound.

"What's wrong with this?" Gao Fei thought to himself, frowning and looking at the house to the west.But saw the fat woman who suddenly appeared yesterday pushed open the door of the West House, and was about to go out, but her fat body completely blocked the door.

A pair of slender catkins protruded from behind her, straightening her skirts attentively, the woman stepped forward impatiently, slapped off those white and tender hands, carried the wooden box beside her, and ignored the clothes behind her. people, come to the courtyard.

Seeing the fat woman getting closer and closer, Gao Fei was secretly vigilant and prepared for the indiscriminate bombing, but was surprised to find that the fat woman did not come up to show off her power as arrogantly as yesterday, but looked at it with unknown meaning. He glanced at himself, and when he was not far away from him, he quickly walked around him, and walked out of the yard through the moon hole.

Looking at the series of actions of the fat woman in astonishment, Gao Fei thought to himself, "It's so strange, didn't you keep roaring yesterday, why is it a squib today?" Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a soft voice: "The little brother of the Yue family..."

Chilled by the soft male voice, Gao Fei hurriedly looked back to the source of the voice, only to see that feminine man from yesterday was lightly moving his lotus steps, slowly trying to walk by himself.

I saw that he first glanced at the direction where the fat woman was leaving with concern, then turned his face and smiled at Gao Fei. His originally too feminine temperament became soft and comfortable because of this smile.

Gao Fei was taken aback by his smile, and then said with some uncertainty: "This... big brother"

"Hehe." The man smiled lightly and waved his hands and said, "You don't have to. My name is Lin Yuchun, how old are you, just call me Brother Chun or Brother Lin..."

Brother Chun, Brother Lin... His complexion froze due to this overly intimate address, Gao Fei said with a dry smile: "Since you are an idiot, how old are you, I will call you "Big Brother". The topic said: "But I don't know, Big Brother Lin, what are you doing to me? "

Lin Yuchun didn't get too entangled in Gao Fei's address. Lin Yuchun still said harmoniously: "We originally lived in the same courtyard, and we should be very close on weekdays. I'm really sorry yesterday. My wife acted a little recklessly, but if there is any abruptness, we will Please forgive me." Lin Yuchun said, and gave Gao Fei a deep salute.

Dodging the gift from the other party, Gao Fei frowned and said, "Is there nothing else? But that room..."

"I made an agreement with my wife yesterday, I just want you to live in that hut with peace of mind, my husband and I have no objection," Lin Yuchun hurriedly said.

"The things in that house...."

Lin Yuchun hesitated for a while when he heard the words, but still said: "Of course I leave it all to you." Then he said sincerely: "However, please be more careful when using those wooden utensils, Brother Yue. After all, those are the painstaking efforts of my wife."

"The furniture in that room was made by Madam Ling." Gao Fei was a little surprised when he heard that.

"Naturally, my wife's carpentry is the best." Hearing this, the man said quickly, looking very proud.

When Gao Fei heard the words, he replied with doubts.

After the main conflict was resolved, the atmosphere of the conversation immediately became much more harmonious. Lin Yuchun glanced at Gao Fei, and asked hesitantly, "Is the Yue family sister and Miss Luo on good terms?"

Gao Fei was taken aback when he heard the words, and thought to himself, Miss Luo?Which one, could it be that sister Shuyao?But because I was not sure, there was no conversation for a while.

Seeing that Gao Fei was silent, Lin Yuchun seemed to have misunderstood something, and stammered busyly; "Yesterday, yesterday, my wife saw Miss Luo and Yue's sister together, and she didn't mean to peek, but, just from the window. ..."

When Gao Fei heard the words, he suddenly realized, and said to himself, no wonder the fat woman behaved so weirdly just now.Looking at it interestingly, it seems that it is Lin Yuchun who came to make a cliché, secretly said, but unfortunately you asked the wrong person, I don't know sister Shuyao.

Lin Yuchun didn't know what was going on in Gao Fei's mind, seeing that he was silent, he just thought that what he said just now offended him, and couldn't help feeling anxious.He was not sociable, and now he is even more at a loss.

Seeing Lin Yuchun's appearance of about to cry, Gao Fei was speechless for a while, and thought to himself, as for what, he wanted to find a topic to break the weird silence, so he thought about it and gave Lin Yuchun a comforting smile , said: "Brother Lin has lived here for a long time?"

"Ah, it's been a while!" Lin Yuchun heard the words, and immediately said: "My wife and I are originally from Yizhou. Because of the flood, we lost our shelter, so we had no choice but to vote for my wife's clan uncle. If you do the math, there is no way. It's been more than three years..."

He didn't notice that Gao Fei changed the subject at all, Lin Yuchun started to talk about his experience, Gao Fei was not impatient, from time to time he could capture some useful information from the other party's narration, such as The country he lives in is called Kaiyuan State, which is divided into nine prefectures. Yuezhou, Qingzhou and Yizhou are facing the sea. Seeing Gao Fei patiently listening to his bitterness, Lin Yuchun couldn't help being very relieved, with a friendly smile on his face a lot of.Following the pauses in his speech, Gao Fei changed the topic and said, "Brother Lin has been here for more than three years, the residents around should be familiar with it, right?"

Lin Yuchun heard the words and said simply: "Well, I know all the residents in this Xiyuan. Although I don't know some of them, I do understand them."

"Does Brother Lin know who the owner of this east room is?" Gao Fei said and pointed to the closed door. He hasn't come out for such a long time, and Gao Fei has no hope.

"East room..." Lin Yuchun was a little hesitant when he arrived, and after thinking for a while, he said: "I really don't know the owner of this east room, I just know it's an old man."

"Old man?" Gao Fei asked suspiciously,

"En." Lin Yuchun replied very simply, it seems that he is quite sure about this point.

"Then does this old man have any friends?"

Friends... This old man usually lives in seclusion and has a very weird temper. He doesn't listen to him and is no friend.On the contrary, he seems to have some relationship with Master Luo, otherwise he wouldn't be able to live in Luo's Xiyuan even if he has a foreign surname. "Speaking of this, Lin Yuchun seemed to look at Gao Fei meaningfully.

Not paying attention to the other party's expression, Gao Fei asked again: "In the past few days, has anyone come to see this old man?"

Lin Yuchun tapped his cheek with his slender fingers, thought for a while, and said affirmatively: "No, I usually stay at home, and I know whoever comes to the east room. That old man seems to be I'm only acquainted with Master Luo."

"Strange." Gao Fei murmured, he already sensed something was wrong, and when he was about to ask again, he suddenly heard a woman's voice: "Young Master Yue." At the source, it was yesterday's maid who was scribing ink. She was standing at the entrance of the moon cave, instructing a few servants to carry several large boxes into the small courtyard. Seeing Gao Fei looking at her, he felt a little reserved. Goofy smiled.
