Chapter 15 Part 3
The old man invited the two to sit down and have dinner. At this time, someone outside the door called: "Uncle Chen, Uncle Chen, are you at home?"
"Hey, I'm here." Uncle Chen agreed and went to open the door.
"Uncle Chen, this is the medicine you entrusted me to buy." The person outside the door said.
"Oh, thank you so much, Feng Cunzheng. I'm sorry for your trouble. I have a guest here, but I forgot to pick it up."
Feng Cunzheng smiled and said: "It's nothing to do, but I didn't know you had relatives coming to visit. It's really rude."
Uncle Chen hurriedly let the villager come in, and he waved his hands again and again: "Where is it? I'm a widow. I don't know where my relatives come from. I can't climb high." After speaking, he introduced Xue Xiao to the villager.
Feng Cunzheng clasped his fists together: "The two of you have traveled a long way to gather folk songs. You are truly ambitious people. I am a rural man, so it is a great honor to meet you two."
Xue Yang unabashedly looked at the villager in front of him. This person was almost forty years old, and his figure was thin. He was said to be a countryman, but he had a bookish air, and he spoke decently without being rude.Is even Cunzheng so self-cultivated these days?
Xiao Xingchen hurriedly returned the gift: "Feng Cunzheng is being polite. I was also planning to visit you at home. I will borrow the precious land for the time being. Please bear with me if I am rude."
The two people who were talking were polite again.Xue Yang kept silent.Naturally, this kind of sour dialogue can be saved as much as possible.I really don't want to get involved.
"Since the two of you will stay here for a few more days, why don't you invite the two of you to step aside tomorrow, so that Feng can do his best as a landlord."
Just when I felt sleepy, someone brought me a pillow.The two thanked each other repeatedly.Arrived early the next morning.
"The two of you can come, it's really a splendor." Feng Cunzheng - Feng Huaren raised his hand as a salute, and led the two into the flower hall at the door.
From the outside, the houses in this village are just bigger than ordinary villagers' houses.It's not necessarily so meticulous.However, after entering the door, it was discovered that there was something wrong with it.It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a miniature version of the other courtyard palace.There are many railings and corridors. Behind the wall shadow of the courtyard is a huge strange rock, and it is not a rockery. The middle of the strange rock is hollow, and a well is faintly visible in it.
Under normal circumstances, the wells of large households are placed in the backyard, near the kitchen and laundry room, so that it is convenient to draw water and use water.
Feng Huaren saw that Xiao Xingchen seemed to be interested in the well, so he explained: "When the location was released, this strange stone was already there. Some Feng Shui masters said that since the house is located on a mountain and there is a stone lying across it, it is best Adding a well can get rid of the aura of rigidity. Therefore, this well is not used for drawing water, but for viewing."
"I see. It seems that the architecture of Feng Cunzheng's home is also very particular." It was still Xiao Xingchen who spoke.
"Mr. Xue praised you." The one called Mr. Xue was naturally Xiao Xingchen.
Seeing that Xue Yang was just watching, Feng Huaren was afraid that he would neglect the distinguished guests, so he said, "Mr. Yan seems to be a quiet and introverted person, could it be that Mr. Feng did not entertain well?"
"Feng Cunzheng is being polite. I'm just shocked by the grandeur of Feng Cunzheng's place. After all, building such a house here requires not only financial resources but also skilled craftsmen."
"Where is it? My ancestors were in business when they had some savings and friends with skillful skills, so they were able to settle down here."
Feng Huaren gave up his seat to the two and served tea.Asked about their experiences when they were collecting folk songs, fortunately Xiao Xingchen was able to answer fluently because he had traveled to many places, and Xue Yang interspersed some market slang from time to time, which was the icing on the cake.
Seeing that the conversation was getting better, Xiao Xingchen changed the subject: "I heard that Feng Village has an ancestral tomb on the mountain. According to Uncle Chen, the ground was dug by robbers and people dug it. These people are really daring."
"Isn't it? It's also the fault of us younger generations. Every time we bury some of their favorite items in the world. That's why those looters come here again and again." Feng Huaren was heartbroken, and then said: "Let the two I am laughing at you." Both of them bowed their hands in apology.
The banquet that followed was very harmonious, and the guest of honor had a good time.After saying thanks, the two left Feng Huaren's residence.
"How does Taoist priest feel?" Xue Yang broke the silence.
"Didn't you notice it a long time ago? Although Feng Huaren is able to justify his words, his words are also evasive. The expressions are too well done, but it gives people the feeling of deliberate acting."
Xue Yang hugged his chest, with a smile in his eyes: "Since the Taoist priest agrees with my thoughts, then—Night Detective!"
Of course until nightfall.Often the darker you are, the more you can see.Both of them understand this truth.
It's nightfall, and the only sound in the mountains is the barking of dogs.The night became clearer and colder.After discussing with Xue Xiao, they decided to divide the troops into two groups.Xiao Xingchen went to Feng Huaren's residence, and Xue Yang went to Zuling.
