Chapter 5 First Visit to the Villa

The day Xu Shaolin arrived at Qingquan Villa, Han Yan, the young owner of Qingquan Villa, came out to greet him and asked, "Why are you here by yourself? Have you been abandoned?"

They knew each other since childhood and were not restrained when they spoke. Xu Shaolin shook his head helplessly: "The three of them encountered something on the road, which was delayed."

Han Yan smiled and said, "Forget it, it's better for you to come first, come and help first."

Taohuajian received an invitation from Qingquan Villa this time to celebrate the 80th birthday of the old lady Hanyin. The two places can be considered family friendship. Xu Shaolin and others wanted to come in advance to help Han Yan, but who would have thought that he would only arrive first now?

While talking to Han Yan, the two came to the front hall. Han Yan's father Han Zhuo and his mother He Jing happened to talk about things in the front hall. Xu Shaolin stepped forward and asked, and then chatted with the two elders for a while. Han Zhuo hadn't seen each other for a while and said, "Taohuajian is now becoming more and more famous, and Shaolin is worried a lot."

Xu Shaolin said: "You are polite to the owner of the manor. The big tree is also arousing wind. I received a post from Biluo Palace a few days ago."

Han Zhuo said: "It seems that Biluo Palace is looking for everyone to gather."

Qingquan Villa also received a post from Biluo Palace. Biluo Palace is a sect in Luoxia City to the west and is famous for its swords and martial arts skills.

When there was a leader of the alliance, the Biluo Palace produced four alliance leaders in turn. Later, due to the emergence of various forces, the alliance leader seemed to be less important, and gradually the leader was gone. The myth of the Biluo Palace became a thing of the past, but it still had its status in the west.

Several years later, Biluo Palace has released the World Post, which seems to be gathering everyone to re-arrange the preface of the world.

"It would be fine if it was just a gathering." Han Yan said. Recently, some of the forces in the west began to secretly thrust, and they had heard of it.

Han Zhuo looked at the two young men in front of him and said, "Hey, no matter what, it's your business. When we get older, we won't get involved." After that, he looked at Xu Shaolin, "Look at your masters. With you four you take over Taohuajian, I don't know where to go."

Qianhuayu and Xing Ming saw Gu Ning and his wife traveling around at that time, so they ran out. As for where the four people went, Xu Shaolin and the others really didn't know. When Han Yan heard that his father had this idea, he said, "Dad, don't think about it first. Grandma is still here, so you should be in the villa obediently."

Han Zhuo thought that his son would not be more tactful when he joked with him. Xu Shaolin saw this and saved the scene and said, "But no matter what, grandma's birthday, the master and the others will come back. Taohuajian's biennial inventory will also be present. Maybe how can I get back on the road?"

While the three of them were talking, Mrs. Han walked slowly with a woman in the corridor in the distance and entered the front hall. The woman bowed and bowed: "Tanxue has seen her godfather."

The woman has willow-leaf eyebrows and a pair of peach blossom eyes, and a tear mole at the corner of her eyes. Her beautiful face is rosy and shiny, and she is gentle and beautiful. Her name is Su Tanxue, and she is the child of Mrs. Han’s junior sister Jin Yue.

Jin Yue married Su Guyun, a scholar, and lived an ordinary life. He bleed heavily after giving birth to Su Tanxue. Although he was rescued, he fell into the root of his illness and left when Su Tanxue was six years old.

Su Guyun pulled Su Tanxue with one hand. Seeing that the girl was pitiful and concerned about her relationship with her junior sister, Mrs. Han recognized Su Tanxue as her goddaughter. At the beginning of this year, when Su Guyun was picking things up the mountain, she fell down the hillside without any worries and wasted one leg. She was worried that her daughter would not be able to take care of her and that she could not take good care of her daughter, so she sent Su Tanxue to Qingquan Villa. When Han Zhuo heard about this, he took Su Guyun over and now lives in the villa.

Mrs. Han was born to like girls. At that time, she kept thinking about giving Han Yan a sister, but she never succeeded. Now Su Tanxue got to her side and raised her like her biological daughter. The villa also called Su Tanxue "Miss Tanxue".

Han Yan introduced Tanxue and introduced Xu Shaolin to Tanxue. The two greeted each other and sat down.

Mrs. Han said, "Have we disturbed you to talk about everything?" Mrs. Han is a cheerful person with a very good temperament. Han Zhuo said, "I have never been never, it's better if my wife comes." These two people have always been kind, and the three younger generations are not surprised.

"I heard that the girl Qingyan and the others have delayed it?" Mrs. Han had an indescribable liking to Gu Qingyan. She just heard that Gu Qingyan didn't come with Xu Shaolin and thought what was wrong with Gu Qingyan.

Xu Shaolin replied: "Yes, I have encountered temporary incidents before I set out, and I will be two days late."

Mrs. Han nodded and Han Yan next to her said, "Every time you are coming, my mother doesn't care about anything else, she will think about Gu Qingyan."

Whenever Han Yan mentioned Gu Qingyan, he always had a very normal tone, not enthusiastic or indifferent, but he was the only one who could call Gu Qingyan's full name. Mrs. Han didn't care about his tone and said to Tanxue: "Qingyan is a very interesting girl, she is completely opposite to your personality."

Han Zhuo echoed: "That's not the case. When that girl comes back, you will have a companion."

In Qingquan Villa, there are almost no peers who can play with Su Tanxue. In addition, Su Tanxue is so quiet that she has few companions on her side. She also wants to have a friend. She often hears Mrs. Han mention this girl named Gu Qingyan, and she is very curious.

"Tanxue, don't betrayed by that girl." Han Yan said to Su Tanxue, writing in a gentle tone. Xu Shaolin was still sitting next to him. After hearing this, he coughed gently: "You said that to me, the fourth girl in Taohuajian, do you think that she is too lucky and has lived too long?" After that, Feng Qingyun drank tea calmly, and a cold wind blew from behind Han Yan.

Two days later, Zong Yue, Baili Mo, and Gu Qingyan reached the middle of the mountain, and Xu Shaolin and Han Yan were there to pick them up. Gu Qingyan got off the horse and asked Xu Shaolin, but ignored Han Yan beside him. Xu Shaolin asked a few questions about whether the road was safe. After getting a positive answer, he walked towards the villa.

After entering the villa, the people greeted the people familiarly and walked to the front hall. Han Zhuo and Mrs. Han were already in the front hall, and Su Tanxue was also present.

Su Tanxue saw a woman walking in the middle of four men. The woman was wearing a black blue double-breasted skirt, a big sleeve shirt, and her skirt swayed as she walked closer. When she walked closer, Su Tanxue saw her wearing a delicate mask covering the upper half of her face, and a decoration appeared on the right side to the lower jaw. Walking between the four men, but her temperament was not inferior, Su Tanxue became curious about Gu Qingyan.

While Su Tanxue was looking at him, Gu Qingyan and his friends had already arrived at the front hall: "Zong Yue/Baili Mo/Qingyan had met the owner of the manor and the wife." The three of them said together. After politely standing up, Gu Qingyan looked at the girl who had been looking at him.

After Mrs. Han introduced everyone, Gu Qingyan quipped, "So you are Miss Tanxue."

As he said that, he took the initiative to walk towards Su Tanxue. In Gu Qingyan's eyes, his first impression of Su Tanxue was quiet. Su Tanxue looked at her as if she was afraid of being discovered by her. Su Tanxue was not aggressive. This is one of the reasons why Gu Qingyan would take the initiative to approach her. "Aunt Jing mentioned you in the letter, and I have always thought. Aunt Jing has always liked her daughter, but now she is satisfied."

Gu Qingyan smiled and said that He Jing was Mrs. Han, and Mrs. Han and Gu Qingyan's mother were as good as sisters, so Gu Qingyan called Mrs. Han Aunt Jing when she was young.

Seeing this, Mrs. Han said to Gu Qingyan: "Tanxue is quiet. You can take her with you when you come, otherwise I always feel wronged in this villa." After hearing this, Gu Qingyan replied that it was no problem. After a while, she started chatting with the front room.

Gu Qingyan wanted to go and see the old lady first, so she said to Han Zhuo and others, and left the front hall, and jumped and used light skills to go to the old lady Hanyin.

Seeing Gu Qingyan being so rude, Xu Shaolin hurriedly said, "This girl has been spoiled by us, I hope the owner of the manor will forgive me."

Han Zhuo waved his hand, and Gu Qingyan, the girl, also watched her grow up for several years. Qingquan Villa is the same as Gu Qingyan's second home. Han Zhuo knew that Gu Qingyan was an unrestrained person and had his own sense of doing things, so he didn't care about these details.

Han Yan, who had been by the side, also looked out when Gu Qingyan went out, thinking: How could this girl ignore him so thoroughly since she was a child? Although she thought so, she didn't reveal it. She heard Xu Shaolin say something and continue, "What else is there in Qingquan Villa that Gu Qingyan has never escaped from, you are all for you three." His words caused everyone to chuckle, and then they started chatting.

Su Tanxue also looked at Gu Qingyan's figure and was slightly stunned. She could feel that the people in the room were so fond of Gu Qingyan that they were indulging in this way, which was different from the kindness she was to her.

Once upon a time, she also wanted to learn some kung fu because of her mother's ability, but because of her mother's physical reasons, she didn't learn it. Her father Su Guyun is a relatively traditional person who thinks that girls should be the lady of a family, so now she and Gu Qingyan are like people from two worlds.

Gu Qingyan likes Hanyin because Hanyin is like his grandmother, kind and warm, but at the same time he also has the aura of the family's mistress. Gu Qingyan likes such people. They seem to rely on each other in the vast crowd but also support their own sky independently.

"Grandma!" Before entering the room, Gu Qingyan's voice came. Hanyin was sitting on the soft couch at this moment, and Yun Fang, who was serving beside her, was massaged by the old lady.

Hearing Gu Qingyan's voice, Yun Fang went forward and greeted him: "The fourth girl is coming at the right time."

Gu Qingyan entered the house, jogged over with her skirt, and came to Hanyin: "Say my goodbye to grandma."

Hanyin smiled and asked Gu Qingyan to get up, pulled her to her side and sat, and asked, "When did it arrive?"

Gu Qingyan replied: "It's been a while. I heard that my grandma was having lunch break, so I chatted with Aunt Jing in the front hall for a while, thinking that the time was almost over before coming here."

Hanyin scraped Gu Qingyan's nose and said with a smile: "You girl, you are so smart."

Gu Qingyan pulled Han Yin's hand and said coquettishly: "Although Yan'er didn't come first, he could send someone to the gift he brought to his grandmother. Did Aunt Yunfang receive it?"

"After receiving it, Miss Suxin sent it over, I asked the people in the kitchen to prepare it. After a while, the old lady would also use the snacks to write first, and then she would bring them to it."

Yun Fang said that Su Xin had just brought the special snacks in Jincheng. They were walnut pastries and apricot blossom cakes from a dim sum shop in Tonghua Lane, Jincheng. At that time, the old lady liked the most when she was still in Jincheng. She had eaten less sweet food in recent years. She accidentally mentioned them to Gu Qingyan. The girl remembered them and went to Tonghua Lane, Jincheng to find this dim sum chef and asked someone to make a sugar-free one.

Every year, the old lady would buy some for her birthday. Hanyin smiled and said, "You are the girl who is in love."

"Grandma, don't praise me all the time. I only perform this time every year. Han Yan will always be with her grandma for a long time. Moreover, now there is Miss Tanxue, and there are more people to fulfill their filial piety to her grandma. Yan'er is behind them.

"Gu Qingyan said, she didn't want to take advantage of this. Many things in the Hanyin courtyard were purchased by Hanyan. Tanxue now lives in Qingquan Villa and I think she will always accompany the old lady when she comes.

After all, Gu Qingyan is an outsider, and no matter how deep the relationship is, she can't stand it day and night. She just didn't look at these things in detail. With Tanxue's mouth, Hanyin and Gu Qingyan started chatting: "Tanxue's child is just too quiet, unlike you, he is just a monkey. But she likes her too. She often comes to me and draws with me. She is much better than you."

It seems that the two girls appear before and after, and the contrast is extremely large, so they always make people unconsciously compare.

"Grandma, don't mention painting. You know that I can make a cup of tea and make wine. As for playing chess, calligraphy and painting..." Gu Qingyan is really not good at playing chess, calligraphy and painting, etc., and her quiet side is not on this.

So she cleverly avoided these things every time she came to Hanyin. Hanyin tried to teach Gu Qingyan, but only Qin could get through. Qianhuayu really tried a lot to teach Gu Qingyanqin, but she felt that it was almost done, so she no longer forced her to learn.

Hanyin nodded to say this anymore. At this time, the snack was also brought up. Gu Qingyan arranged for Hanyin to taste it. Seeing Hanyin nodding repeatedly, she started eating it herself. This time, she specially asked the master to add some hawthorn sour fruits to the dim sum, so that the old lady would not be greedy and unable to digest it.

While eating Gu Qingyan, he said, "When will grandma go to pray for blessings this year?"

Hanyin replied: "I thought I would go there in the next few days, but I met Master Kongjing a few days ago, saying that Qingluo Temple has been repaired recently. So I went there after my birthday."

Gu Qingyan doesn't like the incense of the temple very much. She hardly goes there on weekdays. Only then every year does her son follow Hanyin to Qingluo Temple. It's strange that the incense of the Qingluo Temple is lighter than others. The environment in the Zen temple is also better. She has gone there a little bit more and liked it.

After chatting for a while, Xu Shaolin Zongyue and Baili Mo also came over. He asked Hanyin and talked for a while. Someone came to the front hall to pass on the message saying that dinner could be used. The group followed Hanyin out of the courtyard and came forward. (To be continued)
