801, Four Seas Courtyard
Han Yiming was a little puzzled. The surroundings were very quiet and there was no light. Why was there a manor in front of him? From a distance, there was a circle of lights. But there was no light everywhere here, and there was no people here! He was just awakening when he suddenly heard a strong man say, "That's it. The guest is tired of walking, so you have to take a break?"
Since he slashed down with a sword, the strong men were dumb and silent all the way. He made a sound at this time, which was really beyond his surprise. Han Yiming looked around and found that it was really desolate, but the yard ahead was nothing more, and said, "Is that the shopkeeper's old boss's home?" The strong men who made a sound said, "Yes, we have been here in the past." Han Yiming looked behind him, although he did not see the people who followed him.
But they knew that they had stopped there, so they must have followed him all the time. But they were just hiding well at this time. Perhaps Han Yiming slashed out with a sword, making them cautious, and they did not dare to do anything randomly, nor did they follow them blatantly. The man said, "The guest is tired, so you have to take a break? It's time to get close. We asked one person to call the door, and lead the horse by the way, and ask the guest to ride a horse over there. OK?"
Han Yiming said, "It's very no need. Let's go there soon. Is there only the old boss of the shopkeeper here?" The man said, "Oh, there were more than one family in the past, but later it became more developed. Seeing that it was inconvenient to travel here, everyone was digging food in the fields, and they couldn't get any good results. Therefore, the boss brought the villagers out. Because they were all out, the houses here were abandoned. However, the boss cleaned up a courtyard. Is it the ancestral residence of the former residence? It's also good to live there for a few days." So that's it, Han Yiming said, "I thought the old boss of the shopkeeper didn't like the fun, so he lived in seclusion here." The strong man said, "The boss's business is busy, and only a few people are left here to guard it. However, he comes every year when worshiping ancestors, but he doesn't come on other days. This time, the little boss is two years old, so he comes. It's also the purpose of comforting ancestors."
After walking for a while, he had already walked outside the gate of the manor. From a distance, the manor seemed a little hazy. When he approached, he vaguely saw a wooden plaque hanging from the door with four big words "Sihai Manor" written on it. A strong man stepped forward and patted the door. The door opened silently. There was a voice immediately. The person who responded to the door looked at it and said, "Is it from Manager Li?" The strong man in front of the door responded, and the man immediately said, "We received the letter from Manager Li early in the morning. Where are the distinguished guests? Have you followed them?" The strong man said, "Yes, the distinguished guests are here too." The man joined in
He hurried out and said, "Come is here, please, please." He held a lantern in his hand and walked straight to this side. The strong men who had already got off the mule back were all out of the way. He walked straight to Han Yiming and bowed to Han Yiming and said, "It's really rare. The good day for the young master is tomorrow. Our master will not come tomorrow morning. I received a letter from Manager Li today and sent someone to report the message. It must be here that the person who reported the message and our master have met. The master will definitely arrive tomorrow morning. Please come in and rest first."
The lantern in his hand was directed forward, and he waited for Han Yiming to start. When Han Yiming moved, he walked aside. The lantern in his hand was just shining on the road ahead of him. When he walked into the yard, he realized the world. Along the way, except for the sound of mules and horses walking, there was no sound and no one talked. Han Yiming used to walk with his master's sect. Some senior brothers talked about everything along the way, and some senior brothers whispered and laughed, and never had such quietness. At this time, when he arrived inside the door, he suddenly felt like he had arrived in the world. The courtyard was very lively, and the door opposite was the main hall, which looked like a farmhouse, but was very uniform. There were still people sitting in the main hall and chatting. There were people in the yard coming down and shuttled back and forth in the yard, and they were busy for tomorrow's birthday.
The man said, "Are you tired?" He turned around and asked the strong men who followed him in: "Have you been able to have dinner?" Someone replied, "We have been on the way, and never used it." The man said, "Okay, Ping An." A servant came from somewhere. The man said, "You lead Manager Li's people to have dinner first. Fortunately, we have prepared a lot today, otherwise we will wait hungry for a while. Tell the kitchen that the distinguished guests are here, and you will soon deliver the prepared meals." The servant called Ping An brought the strong men over. The man said, "The one who comes in the living room is the friend my master has always been with. Can the distinguished guests come in and sit in?" Before Han Yiming could speak, he said, "If the distinguished guests are tired, I will take a rest first with the distinguished guests. After dinner, the distinguished guests go, I will lead the distinguished guests to go there."
This man was really smart and clever. Han Yiming glanced at him. He was only in his thirties and was not outstanding in appearance, but he spoke and did very well. So he said, "I am very tired, please take me to take a break." The man immediately said, "Please go here." He led him to the side of the house and walked through a hall. It turned out that there was a yard behind. At this time, the yard behind was also very lively. Several rooms were brightly lit and someone heard it. The man said, "Those who came tonight were old friends of the master. Some knew each other and some didn't. Please." He pushed open the door of a house and led Han Yiming to the house. He walked to the table in the dark, lit the oil lamp on the table, and said, "It's also clean, please rest here."
The yellow rosewood tables and chairs in the room, and even the bed frame behind them were made of yellow rosewood. The man lit a few oil lamps in a row, illuminating the room very brightly, then turned around and said, "Dear Guest, my name is Pingxi, I will go and arrange for a while." He saw Han Yiming never asked Han Yiming's surname, nor did he ask the jade pendant to take a look. He was just a "dear Guest", very attentive. Soon, someone had brought the meal, which was very rich, and a full table. Han Yiming was really hungry and had a big meal. After a meal, there were still many left. Someone came to collect the bowl and brought tea. After a while, Pingxi came in and said, "Dear Guest, please do it. We are still busy tonight, so we won't talk with you. I'm sorry!"
