Elite men's time travel through ancient times

After Yang Fan touched a few mahjong pieces, he felt bored. Seeing a corner of the main room, Liu Yi was sitting and chatting with two old people, so he asked others to stand on top of him and walked over.

The wine was warming on the stove, and there were some appetizers on the low table, surrounded by three old people, chatting and sipping from time to time.Lin Mofei sat beside him, Xiaopang was holding a piece of jerky in his hand, and Zheng Huan was gnawing on it.

When Yang Fan walked over, he heard one of the old men sighing towards the door, while Liu Yizheng and the other two old men had serious expressions on their faces.Yang Fan was puzzled and asked, "What happened?"

Following the line of sight of the three of them, they opened the door and saw the vast expanse of whiteness outside.The snow is still falling, and the snow is gradually covering everything.

Yang Fan wondered, is there something wrong with Xue?

After Yang Fan sat down beside him, Liu Yizheng said to him, "This is the second snowfall in Fuyuan County since the beginning of winter."

Is it bad for snow?Didn't it say that auspicious snow heralds a good year?Or is there too much snow, and there are other hidden dangers?

The old man who was sighing at the door just now took a sip of his wine and explained: "Master, from the beginning of winter to this time in previous years, it has rained and snowed at least ten times. But this year it rained three times, and only snow fell. twice."

Is it abnormal to have a demon?Yang Fan pondered.

The old man went on to say: "Not only since the beginning of winter, but also there is not much rain this summer."

The old man who spoke was the steward in charge of the farmland of the villa. His surname was Qi, and he was very experienced in farming.Yang Fan paid a high price to specially invite him to the villa to guide the tenants in farming, and even Liu Yizheng often discussed with him about planting herbs.

Fuyuan County is located in an area with abundant rainfall. This year's rainfall is a bit abnormal. Based on years of experience, Manager Qi noticed something was wrong.

"Not necessarily. There is less rain and snow this year, but it does not affect the growth of crops. I have lived here for half my life, and I have never encountered a drought year." The old man who answered the conversation is a native of Fuyuan County. The whole family works in the villa.

Manager Qi only had doubts in this regard, so he nodded: "That's right, maybe we are worrying too much

Yang Fan never underestimated the wisdom of the ancients, especially those old people with rich experience.Hearing what they said, he thought it best to investigate.

The heavy snow didn't stop until evening, and under the setting sun, the world was a vast expanse of white.Worried that the snow would be too heavy to collapse the greenhouse, before the New Year's Eve dinner, the steward Qi sent someone to clean the snow on the roof of the greenhouse.

Even in Fuyuan County, where the climate is mild, vegetables are rare in winter.Yang Fan uses greenhouses to grow and makes a lot of money every winter.In the city, because Chinese New Year is approaching, a catty of green vegetables can now be sold for [-] Wen.So in the eyes of Manager Qi and the others, these greenhouses are equivalent to a golden mountain, very precious.

After sweeping the snow, the New Year's Eve dinner has begun.

Yang Fan is a good boss and a good master.In the villa on this day, there were no servants or masters, and everyone sat around the dining table, chatting and eating hot food.

Apart from the servants, those who stayed in the villa for the New Year also included the nursing home and workers hired by Yang Fan.Either their homes are too far away, or they simply have no home to return to. Of course, there are also families who work in the villa.

Yang Fan gave everyone a red envelope, which was filled with silver nudes, with the words "Splendid Villa" printed on it, one penny each, and six of them, representing the six or six Dashun.With such a generous red envelope, everyone couldn't help but smile

After the lively New Year's Eve dinner, there is a fireworks display.Yang Fan generously bought dozens of large fireworks. Although the ancient fireworks are not as good as modern ones, they are still very beautiful.Everyone in the villa gathered around the open space, and the children jumped up and down excitedly.

When the first firework was ignited, with a loud "bang", a beam of fire went straight into the air, blooming brilliantly in mid-air.Then one by one, the fireworks rushed into the air, blooming colorful and beautiful patterns.

Not only the children, but even the adults couldn't help but exclaim and applaud.

Although the blooming of the fireworks is fleeting, the joy left behind is always in the heart, and it will become a topic that everyone will talk about for a while.

The Lin family brothers also liked it very much. One big and one small stood aside, looking at the two blushing faces and the same sparkling eyes.Seeing Lin Mozhu eager to try, Yang Fan asked him softly, "Do you want to try?"

"Is it possible?" Lin Mozhu looked at Yang Fan with bright eyes, full of anticipation.

Yang Fan couldn't help laughing, and passed the incense in his hand: "It's okay, I'll watch it."

Holding the incense with his small hand, and holding the small hand with his big hand, Yang Fan stood behind Lin Mozhu, with his other hand around his waist.Lin Mozhu felt that the surrounding voices were instantly gone, and there were only two people's heartbeats left in the whole world, his and Yang Fan's.

With his back leaning against Yang Fan's strong chest and surrounded by strong arms, Lin Mozhu felt very secure.A throbbing heartbeat, reddish cheeks, and bright eyes filled with joy.

The moment the fuse was ignited, Yang Fan protected Lin Mozhu and retreated, followed by a "swoosh", sparks rushed into the air, and then a "bang", countless beautiful sparks bloomed.

The whole process was just like Lin Mozhu's mood, exciting, beautiful, and still nostalgic.

The blooming of the fireworks is fleeting, and dozens of fireworks are set off in a short time.The children were still reluctant to leave, and played around in the open space for a long time before being called back to the house by the elders.

At this time, it was three o'clock in the morning, and the young man couldn't bear to yawn.As in previous years, Lin Mozhu decided to stay and watch the night with Yang Fan.It wasn't long before he dozed off against Yang Fan, and finally only vaguely remembered hearing the bells representing the new year coming from a temple not far away.When he woke up, it was already the next morning.

You can't stay in bed in the new year. Whether you have had enough sleep or not, you can only wake up to the sound of firecrackers.Lin Mozhu struggled to sit up, unable to open his eyes.After finally waking up, he put on new clothes for Lin Mofei, who was also confused. As soon as he left the room, he heard congratulatory voices from the servants standing in the yard: "Eldest Young Master, Young Master, good luck, good luck, and good health."

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, everyone has to keep saying auspicious words. Even Lin Murfei, who is not good at speaking, can say things like "auspicious" and "get rich" under the constant guidance of the adults. "And other words.

Lin Mozhu hugged Lin Mofei who was wrapped into a ball, and replied to everyone with a smile on his face: "Good luck."

The atmosphere of the New Year is very strong. Red couplets and window grilles are pasted on the doors and windows of the villa, candles and red lanterns that cannot be extinguished throughout the day, incense for the gods, and confetti left after the firecrackers are set off on the ground.

Everyone who came oncoming said words of blessing on their mouths and had bright smiles on their faces.

Visiting relatives and friends on the first day of the new year, but the Lin brothers and Yang Fan have no relatives here, but some friends.Ji Xiyan and her mother came to visit them very early, and not long after, Pei Ningyuan also came.Sit down and drink tea together, eat melons and fruits and chat for a while, and the time passes quickly.

According to local customs in Fuyuan County, ancestors are worshiped on the second day of the Lunar New Year.The stewards in the villa had already been arranged, and they got busy early in the morning.I visited the temple fair on the third and fourth day of junior high school, and there is a Longquan Temple not far from the villa. The temple fair is held at this time every year, and it is very lively.

There are many performances in the temple fair of Longquan Temple, juggling, drama, dance... There are also some Buddhist activities.Almost half of the people in Fuyuan County will come to participate, which is very lively.

Part of the money for the temple fair was provided by the Fuyuan County Government, and most of it was raised by wealthy local businessmen.As one of the investors, Yang Fan would receive vegetarian food from Longquan Temple every year at this time.

In addition to the lively temple fair, people in Fuyuan County will go to the temple to offer incense on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year.As one of the largest temples in Fuyuan County, Longquan Temple receives tens of thousands of pilgrims on this day.For Yang Fan, a modern person who is used to living in a big city, this number is very small.But for Fuyuan County, which has a total population of only [-] to [-], it is quite huge.

On this day, Lin Mozhu would get up early to take a shower and change clothes, and then bring joss sticks to the temple to burn incense.As a native of ancient times, Lin Mozhu is a devout Buddhist believer.He hopes that the whole family can be blessed by the gods, and that they can live a healthy and happy life without disease or disaster.

Jinxiu Villa and Longquan Temple are very close. Standing at the gate of the villa and looking into the distance, you can faintly see the outline of the temple.Hearing the melodious bell from the temple, Yang Fan put down the pen in his hand and couldn't help but look in the direction of the temple.

He was originally an atheist, but he personally experienced time travel, which made Yang Fan feel that maybe there are gods in this time and space.However, this will not affect his position. With his personality, it is estimated that he will never become a believer in this life.

In the evening, Lin Mozhu, who came back from offering incense, brought a peace talisman to everyone in the family.Yang Fan smiled and asked him to hang it around his neck. As for the one he asked for last year, he carefully put it in the box.

A small talisman entrusts Lin Mozhu's concern for his family.Even if Yang Fan doesn't believe in Buddhism, he will cherish it very much.

No.30—Chapter Confession

In ancient times, the year would not be counted until after the Lantern Festival, and in some places it would not even be until the second month of February when the dragon raised its head.The difference from modern times is that there are a lot of specialties for Chinese New Year here.After entering the twelfth lunar month, every household will start to prepare for the new year, and basically buy everything they need for the whole year.So during the Chinese New Year, almost everyone will not go shopping in shops, and rarely go to restaurants to eat.So Yang Fan simply gave the employees a long holiday, and all the shops reopened after the Lantern Festival.

As the chef of Zhiwei Restaurant, Ji Xiyan also has this benefit.It's just that he doesn't have any friends, and he doesn't have any relatives except the Ji family who drove their mother and son out of the house.And because of the embarrassing status of a male and female, he can't interact with people arbitrarily, and he doesn't usually walk around with his neighbors much.So this year, Ji's life is a little deserted

Lin Mozhu wanted to ask him out to play together, but he had no choice but to give up in the end because he was concerned about Ji's mother.On the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, Yang Fan hosted a banquet for his business partners in the villa, and Lin Mozhu finally had an excuse, and invited Ji Xiyan to the villa under the name of "need Ji Xiyan to be in charge".

Ji Xiyan sat in the carriage that picked him up and walked all the way to the gate of the villa.It's just that the steward didn't take him to the kitchen, but took him directly to Lin Mozhu's yard.

Lin Mozhu made tea in the study, and as soon as Ji Xiyan entered, the fragrance of the tea rushed towards him.Standing behind the low table, Lin Mozhu waved to him: "This is the Longjing tea specially brought back from Qingjiang by Brother Pei, come and taste it." He poured a cup for Ji Xiyan as he spoke.

When Ji Xiyan heard the words "Brother Pei", her expression was a little unnatural, she lowered her head slightly and asked, "The kitchen must be busy right now? I'll go and have a look before I come back to drink tea with you

"There is Master Li in the kitchen, so you can sit down with peace of mind." Just to meet Ji Xiyan in private, the kitchen has already arranged for a chef to handle the cooking.

After hearing what Lin Mozhu said, Ji Xiyan asked after seeing his expression, "Master Li is here too?"

Master Li's real name is Li Dashao. It is said that his ancestors were imperial cooks and his cooking skills are very good.Both he and Ji Xiyan are chefs at Zhiwei Restaurant in Fuyuan County, but Ji Xiyan is mainly responsible for developing new dishes, while Li Dashao is the manager of the restaurant's kitchen.With this arrangement, on the one hand, there is a specialization in art, and on the other hand, it is because of Ji Xiyan's female identity.A side note: It is also because of this that Ji's mother agreed to Ji Xiyan's continued work in Zhiwei Restaurant.

With Li Dashao here, there is no need for Ji Xiyan to intervene in the kitchen.

Seeing the puzzled look on Ji Xiyan's face, Lin Mozhu simply said, "I just found an excuse to ask you to come to the villa."

"What's up?"

"I have something to tell you." Influenced by Yang Fan, Lin Mozhu acted quite simply.Now that he had decided to tell Ji Xiyan, he didn't hesitate anymore.

"Ah Yan, there is something I haven't told you." Lin Mozhu picked up a small white porcelain bottle on the table, unscrewed the stopper, and poured some transparent liquid onto a clean handkerchief.

Under Ji Xiyan's puzzled gaze, Lin Mozhu wiped his forehead with a handkerchief soaked in the liquid medicine.After removing the handkerchief, Ji Xiyan was surprised to see a familiar mark appear between her friend's fair eyebrows.

"I'm also a female male Lin Mozhu's expression looks calm, but in fact his nervous palms are sweating. Because of Lin Mozhu's indifferent temperament, he is very slow when interacting with people, but once he agrees with this person, he He gave more affection than ordinary people. Ji Xiyan is one of his few good friends, so it is inevitable that he will be nervous and flustered when he confesses the secret that he has hidden for many years.

Ji Xiyan's first reaction after regaining consciousness was "Am I hallucinating?"After confirming the facts in front of him again and again, he let out a long sigh of relief: "You are really unexpected!"

After that, Ji Xiyan felt a little joy in his heart.Lin Mozhu is also a male and female, which means that he has an extra close friend in this world.Someone he can trust completely and confide in without any scruples—this is something Ji Xiyan never dared to imagine before.While joyful, Ji Xiyan was also ashamed of her emotions.After all, the identity of male and female represents too many shackles. As a good friend, he should hope that Lin Mozhu can live more freely like ordinary people.

Lin Mozhu didn't know about Ji Xiyan's complicated psychological activities, he just secretly breathed a sigh of relief seeing that Ji Xiyan was not unhappy that he had concealed it for so long.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hide it from you..." Before Lin Mozhu apologized, Ji Xiyan quickly interrupted him with a wave of his hand: "There is no need to apologize, I am also a woman, and I am very aware of the troubles caused by this identity. If I can also hide this sign, if no one finds out, I may hide it for the rest of my life, when an ordinary person spends his whole life..."

Because of her status as a male and female, Ji Xiyan was treated unfairly since she was a child.His father didn't like him and his mother, and his brothers and sisters bullied him at will, even the servants in the family could bully him.Because of these bad things, Ji Xi

Hui Yue even hated this identity when he was young.

Hearing Ji Xiyan's sigh, Lin Mozhu was moved, but also felt distressed for his past experience.Sighing, he took out two white porcelain bottles from a drawer on the bookcase: "This is the potion that my master helped me improve. This can cover the marks. This potion can't be washed off, only this bottle of potion can wipe it off. I'll give you two bottles of medicine, it might come in handy."

Ji Xiyan doesn't need this medicine now, but who knows when it will be used in the future?Just in case, prepare first.So Ji Xiyan was not polite to Lin Mozhu, and took the medicine and put it away.

After knowing Lin Mozhu's secret, Ji Xiyan couldn't help being curious: "Who knows about this now?" Seeing Lin Mozhu's appearance, he didn't intend to disclose this secret.On the one hand, Ji Xiyan felt that Lin Mozhu only told him this secret because he really regarded herself as a friend. On the other hand, he also felt that the advantages of continuing to conceal it outweighed the disadvantages, and he supported Lin Mozhu in his heart.

"Besides you, Brother Yang and Master also know." After returning, Yang Fan and Lin Mozhu were the first to tell Liu Yizheng, because they needed Liu Yizheng's help to cover up the marks on their foreheads more perfectly.

"Since we want to keep concealing it, it's better not to let too many people know about it."

Hearing this, Lin Mozhu nodded: "I know, besides you, I just plan to tell Brother Pei. But you should also tell Auntie, so that it will be more convenient for us to communicate in the future."

The identity of a man and a woman is too embarrassing, and the appearance of a man is to marry and have children.Associating with men will be regarded as "disobeying women", and associating with women will be regarded as heterogeneous.Ji's mother has always hoped that Ji Xiyan can marry in the future, so she does not want her son to be subject to rumors from the outside world.Everyone knows that she is a loving mother, so they all understand how strict she is with Ji Xiyan.Now tell her that Lin Mozhu is also a male and female, so that she will no longer restrict their communication.

But Ji Xiyan was a little hesitant: "My mother doesn't need to tell her specifically, right?"

Knowing that he was worried about himself, Lin Mozhu said in a joking tone: "If Auntie knows, I can ask you to come out to watch the lanterns together during the Lantern Festival this year." Ji Xiyan did not go out with them at the Lantern Festival in the past two years .

Hearing this, Ji Xiyan immediately laughed.After thinking for a while, he finally nodded: "Okay, I'll go back and be with her." Since he was a child, he sneaked out twice to watch the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival when he was very young.To be honest, he still yearns for the lively lantern festival.

"The potion just given to you can be used, and then we will have a good time."

Ji Xiyan's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but frowned at the thought of having fun.

The two grow closer as they share secrets, talking about intimate topics, and time flies by.The kettle on the stove was "gurgling" steaming, and the atmosphere in the study was warm and quiet.

Lin Mozhu was talking about what he saw when he went out last time, when he heard voices coming from outside the yard: "Eldest young master, the master asked the younger one to pass on a message, saying that he wants you to take Mr. Ji to the study."

There was silence in the room for a moment, then Lin Mozhu raised his voice and replied: "Understood, this will pass

When answering, Lin Mozhu had already got up to get the medicine.With the help of Ji Xiyan, the mark between the eyebrows was perfectly covered.Then the two walked out of the study together.

At the door, the young servant respectfully saluted the two of them, and then stepped forward to lead the way.

The banquet held by Yang Fan was held in the afternoon, it was still early, and no guests should have come.On the contrary, Pei Ningyuan came to look for Yang Fan early in the morning, and the two of them hid in the study and didn't know what they were talking about.Lin Mozhu guessed that Pei Ningyuan was looking for them, so he sent a boy over to call for them.Otherwise, with Yang Fan's character, if you really have something to do with them, you should come here directly

Sure enough, as soon as Lin Mozhu and Ji Xiyan arrived at the door of the study, they heard Pei Ningyuan's warm greeting: "Little Mozhu~

?,,

Lin Mozhu walked into the study, but didn't notice that Ji Xiyan's footsteps stopped when he heard the whole sound, and his body became stiff.It was only a split second before Ji Xiyan returned to normal, and walked in with a natural expression.
