The next day, I changed into a coarse cloth shirt and drove a ox cart from Lao Suntou's house to Murong Villa to deliver firewood. The doorman saw me and asked why you came alone. I quickly handed over a pound of tobacco leaves that I had prepared. My uncle was unwell last night, so I came to deliver firewood today. The doorman did not make any trouble, but sent a servant to follow me. After I unloaded the firewood, I had no chance and came out in shame.

When I came back and discussed with Liu Qingfeng, Liu Qingfeng advised me that you can't hold on for only two or three days. Brother, I support you. I said that I have been shopping for gifts these two days, and I haven't even seen the shadow of the Ming Cult. I don't have much money to bring, you see?

Liu Qingfeng said I support you mentally, there is no way to borrow money!

I went to Murong Villa to deliver firewood this day. I became familiar with the gatekeeper for several consecutive days. In addition, I didn’t leave empty-handed every time, and the words between the two became active. The gatekeeper called Murong Laifu. At noon that day, I invited him to drink and took the opportunity to ask if I could find a businessman in the mansion?

Murong Laifu said, the guy in our house Shangcaiyuan asked for a leave of absence from his hometown, and I wonder if you can do it? When I was learning art in the Taishan School, my master did not teach martial arts in the first year, chopping firewood, burning fire, carrying water, and growing vegetables. Of course, it was no problem, so he responded. Laifu said that I would like to tell the third leader tonight, but...

I gritted my teeth and handed over five taels of silver. Then I asked Brother Laifu. In less than a few days, I spent all the money I got from selling Ji Junbi. I couldn't help but be grateful to Ji Junbi. If I had the opportunity to sell it a few more times, I wouldn't make a fortune. I thought to myself.

The next day, I went to deliver the firewood. Lai Fu found me with a smile and said that your business was done. The third housekeeper and I had worked a long time to help you get this job. Don’t mess it up. I said that it was natural. Brother Lai Fu, I came to the villa. There are some places that have exceeded the rules, so you can take more responsibility.

Lai Fu took me to meet the three housekeepers. I saluted them in a regular manner. The three housekeepers simply asked about my hometown and walked away impatiently.

Lai Fu took me to the vegetable garden. When I saw that, I was beloved, there were ten acres of land, which was much brighter than the one three-quarters of the Taishan Sect. Lai Fu said, you will take care of the garden here in the future. Taoyuan next door to the garden. We servants from the outer courtyard have no communication, so don’t go there, otherwise I can’t help you, brother. I thanked you repeatedly.

It was mid-March, and the cucumbers, spinach, peppers, and peas planted in early spring have sprouted and grown leaves. It is rainy in the south of the Yangtze River, so I don’t have to worry too much about watering. It’s just that some vines are climbing up. I have to set up a rack, pull out the weeds in the garden, and catch the insects. I’m not busy. I’m just a newcomer and I haven’t had the chance to go to the inner courtyard to take a look.

Next to the vegetable garden is a peach forest that spreads to the mountains, with hundreds of acres. It is the season when peach blossoms bloom, and it looks very beautiful from here.

One morning after finishing the farm work, I saw that there was no one around me. I climbed over the garden to enjoy peach blossoms. The pavilions and pavilions were hidden among the peach blossoms in the mountains, which looked very beautiful. I wonder which boudoir of the Mingjiao was? I wonder if she was also enjoying peach blossoms in the room?

I saw a small house next to Taolin. An old man was basking in the sun with an easy chair at the door. The old man was holding a wine pot in his hand. He probably was the servant in charge of Taoyuan. He was old and had a leisurely job and felt comfortable. Snoring sounds came from there, and he probably fell asleep.

After watching for a while, I heard someone next door call me, and I quickly returned to the garden, but Lai Fu came to find a meal. The food from the servants of Murong Villa was delicious, but the amount was too small. I am from the north, and I could eat four or five bowls of rice every meal, but I was so confused with Qin Fanzhu. I didn't take these jokes to heart.

After lunch, I returned to the vegetable garden and thought that I had nothing to do in the afternoon, so I might as well find a way to go to the inner yard for a walk. If someone asked, I would say I was lost. At this time, it suddenly started to rain. I remember that the old man in the cottage was still sleeping, so I went back to the woodshed and took an umbrella and sent it to him.

When I came here, I saw the old man snoring like thunder. I was afraid of waking him up, so I went over and covered him with a coat and helped him hold an umbrella. After doing this, I suddenly felt a little stupid and just woke him up and went back to the house. I shouted twice, but there was no response, so I had to stand with an umbrella.

The Murong Villa in the rain adds a bit more hazy, with fog filling, surrounding the hillside, like a jade belt, like a fairyland on earth.

Murong Villa really knows how to choose a place. This mountain and a village may have taken away half of the spiritual energy of Jinling City. I feel relaxed and happy. I secretly recited the preface of half an inch of rivers and mountains, and only felt that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth swarmed in and cleansed the meridians in my body. In a moment, I entered a state of selflessness. The true energy in my body slowly filled up. Although the four lakes were not full, it no longer became an obstacle to the circulation of true energy. My consciousness was like a tentacle, spreading. This feeling was experienced when I fell into the fifth and sixth grade of the Middle Realm in that night.

Ahem!

I came to my senses and saw that the old man had woken up and looked at me with a smile. I quickly saluted. It was raining just now. I saw that the old man was sleepy and did not dare to disturb him. I was in Qin Sanguan and was taking care of the vegetable garden next door. I wonder if the old man respected him?

The old man smiled and said, I almost forgot my name, but there are a few little guys who like to call me Lao Buddy. Just call me Lao Buddy.

How dare I call this? The old man said, I think you are not weak in martial arts, so how could you be willing to be a vegetable farmer in Murong Villa?

I thought to myself that I came for Murong Qiushui, do you believe that I admire Murong Villa very much. This villa is built on the mountain, with beautiful scenery and gathering the essence of heaven and earth. No wonder the Murong family has stood firm for hundreds of years and has become the best beauty in the world. Being able to make a living here is also considered a fortune. If you go out in the future, you can brag about it with your friends.

The old man took a sip of wine and threw the wine pot over. I took it and drank a large sip. The wine was so sweet that it was definitely not comparable to the ordinary food in the restaurants. I praised it, good wine.

The old man asked, do you still know the little girl Murong?

I knew that too much words would lead to mistakes, and shook my head and said, but I just admired it in my heart. The old man laughed and said, "You boy is really good." At the entrance of the villa, you will see the little girl's knights every day, like a crucian carp crossing the river. It is rare for you to enter the village as a servant. Come and have a few more drinks with me."

In a moment, we drank a pot of wine. The old man asked if he could play chess? I said he understood a little. The old man probably had a chess skill and took out a chess to play chess with me. I saw that the old man was not very good at chess skills, and he was about the same as Old Liu of the Warehouse Management Department, but I deliberately made friends to see if I could get some useful news, so I did not try my best. After four games, I actually tied.

The sky is getting darker, and the old man said that we will end this day and come again tomorrow!

When I returned to the Jiangnan office, Liu Qingfeng asked me how it was going. I smiled bitterly and shook my head. In the evening, Jiang Chong treated me to some well-known martial arts people in the local area, such as Song Chengqing, the chief steward of the waterway, and Sui Donglai, who were mostly masters of the fifth and sixth ranks.

During the meal, Jiang Chong suggested that when he returned to Beijing, he could consider setting up a branch in Jiangnan after discussing with the boss, so that Jiangnan Road and Shandong Road could be connected, and the Central Plains Escort Agency could continue to go south. I had something to do in my mind, so I just said that when I returned to the capital, I would report Manager Jiang’s ideas to the boss.

After the banquet, Jiang Chong said that since everyone has got together, why don’t you be the host tonight? Please come to No. 18, Yunmen? I heard that a new beauty has recently come. She is pretty and still a young girl. Why not join in the fun?

I woke up immediately with a drunken heart and quickly refused. Jiangnan had a knife, Song Chengqing hugged my shoulder. Brothers wouldn't be stage frightened, right?
