Part One: Intertwined Time and Space Chapter Two: The Spiritual Stone of Fate
Chapter 181 The Villa and the City (Part 2)
It has been half an hour since Yue Qing's carriage entered the city. Yue Qing looked at the enthusiastic crowd around her, and there were even many people following her, and she smiled helplessly.
This neighborhood is much busier than the city gate. There are many two- and three-story small buildings around. Most of the gates are hung with lanterns or flags with writing on them. Yue Qing only recognizes some of them. There are also some that are not hanging up, like the small building that Yue Qing sees now. It is larger than other buildings and separated from other buildings. There is a plaque on the door, and two lanterns are hung under the plaque. A curtain is opened on the second floor above the plaque, and there are many people standing on the second floor like other small buildings. The main thing is that this place should attract Yueqing's attention more. It doesn't feel too like ordinary people. Those who saw Yueqing looked at them and saluted here.
Yue Qing nodded to them.
"Master Yue, what is that small building for?"
Yue Zhang followed her gaze and said, "That's a teahouse. Literati like to gather there. There are several teachers in our city."
"Oh, are they from the Mo family?"
"The master is really smart."
"I just made a random guess, and I always feel that among the five clans in the villa, the Mo family is the most well-dressed and behaves the most well-behaved. When I heard that Mo Xue was going to go with me, I thought he would definitely be able to ride in a car. Why can't I do it myself? Horse riding. But now I feel that the Yue family and the Mo family are quite similar. They are both elegant people, not as particular as they are."
Yue Zhang made no comment and glanced at Mo Xue from the corner of his eye.
Yue Qing said: "It's okay, you don't have to worry about Mo Xue being angry." She glanced at Mo Xue and continued: "Do you have the best relationship with the Mo family?"
Yue Zhang smiled and said: "The five clans in the villa have a very close relationship."
"City Lord Yue, you are so smooth in your words."
Yue Zhang changed the topic: "I heard that the spirit girl came up with a new idea, rolling the bet cakes with cold dishes to eat on the road. You don't have to stop the car when cooking, you can make it in the car."
Yue Qing said: "Well, it does happen, but it's not what we thought. It's normal to eat like this over there."
"It's rare here. Yue is very interested in these thoughts of the spirit girl. When the spirit girl is resting here, Yue wants to talk more with the spirit girl."
"Actually, it's nothing special. I just don't want to eat dry biscuits in the car, so I want to improve the food. I can tell you if you want to know, but I also suddenly wanted to eat this, so I asked you to prepare it. If you don't want to eat it, I probably can’t remember it yet.
Well, I happened to be thinking about preparing something to drink in the past two days, and I just asked Lord Yue to prepare the ingredients. "
"Oh, that's great. Yue Zhang is also very interested in the drinks that the spirit girl wants to drink. Xibao City has a complete range of ingredients and will try its best to meet the spirit girl's needs."
"Okay, thank you first, Lord Yue."
As the two of them talked, they arrived in the middle of the city. There were fewer shops on the roadside. From now on, there were many residential alleys. The more they went to the middle, the wider they became. There were not that many people in the area where Yueqing and the others walked. Surrounded, on the contrary, the surrounding scenery is elegant.
Yue Zhang said: "Ms. Lingnu, if you walk a little further, you will reach the hotel."
“Is this basically a residential area?”
"Yes, the residential areas in the city are all built in a unified manner. Surrounding the city lord's palace in the center, the residential areas in all directions have the same design. The hotel arranged for the spirit girl is next to the city lord's palace, together with the other three major hotels Surrounded by the city lord’s palace.”
"Why are there so many hotels? Do foreign guests often come to the city?"
"Yes, Lingnu guessed it right. Two of the four hotels are specially designed to receive foreign guests, and the other two are specially prepared for the adults in the villa. It's just that they are generally not used much."
"Is there anyone still staying at the hotel that receives foreign guests?"
"have."
"Oh, they're not in the crowd, are they?"
"No, because the spirit girl is on tour today, I specifically told them that it is not convenient for them to leave the hotel."
"Ah, isn't this good? Our villa doesn't pay attention to hospitality?"
Yue Zhang smiled and said: "Don't worry, Spirit Girl, the villa has its own rules, and the foreign guests will naturally understand the rules."
"Oh. That's good. If the city lord is in trouble because of my coming, I'll feel a little sorry."
"No, foreign guests won't. Being able to interact with the Villa is a rare opportunity for outsiders. We won't be in trouble with the Villa because of this."
Yue Qing smiled.
I heard Yue Zhang say again: "Lingnu, she has arrived."
Yue Qing looked forward and saw two rows of huge trees in front of her. The convoy followed the road in the middle and arrived at the gate. The door of the hotel was open. There was a gate in the middle and two small gates on the side. Above is the beautifully built eaves. There is a stone lion carving on each side of the door. The high walls on both sides of the gate are made of blue bricks. It extends all the way into the forest, and you can't tell how far it is. There are steps in front of the door, and a red carpet extends from the courtyard to the outside of the door.
The people leading the team were divided into two sides, with the people in the city on one side and Chang Rong and the others on the other side. Qi Jiao's car stopped in front of the door, and City Master Yue dismounted and stood in front of the car. Qi Jiao got out of the car and took out the step stool. San Yuxiao and Qing'er helped Yue Qing get out of the carriage.
Yue Qing stood on the red carpet and looked at the hotel. From the gate, she felt that this courtyard was not much different from her own Qingyue Pavilion.
Yue Zhang said: "Invite the spirit girl."
Yue Qing nodded and followed City Master Yue into the courtyard. It was indeed not small inside. Yue Qing looked at the attics, pavilions, and corridors on all sides. It's really big. How many teams have I brought with me? Do I need to live in such a big place?
Yue Zhang took Yue Qing and the others all the way to the reception hall, and led Yue Qing to the main seat.
Yue Qing looked at the lobby and said, "City Lord, this hotel is really big. It's not much smaller than my Qingyue Courtyard."
"Of course it can't be compared with Qingyue Yard. The master of Qingyue Yard can live comfortably."
Yue Qing looked at him, "Don't you always call me Spirit Girl?"
Yue Zhang smiled and said: "There are many people outside and it is difficult to directly identify the master of the hospital. The people only know that the spirit girl is coming, and they will not know that the saint of Qingyue Pavilion is out. Yue Zhang behaved inappropriately all the way and paid his respects to Saint Qingyue. Female." He said and saluted again with the few people who followed him.
Yue Qing said quickly: "Okay, okay, Lord Yue, get up quickly. If you know who I am, you will also know that I have a more casual temperament and don't like this rule. Get up quickly. You don't have to worry about it when you see me in the future." Always salute.”
Yue Zhang and others stood up.
Yue Zhang said: "I heard that the saint would leave the villa and pass through our city. Yue Zhang was nervous for a long time, fearing that something would go wrong. The elders would actually agree to such a big event as the saint leaving the villa. I can’t believe it.”
Yue Qing smiled, "I didn't agree at first, but I agreed after struggling a few times."
Yue Zhang said, "Although I have heard about Master Qingyue's temperament, today is the first time I have seen him in person. Yue Zhang has already arranged for the maids to take care of him and the attendants to serve the master, and he will ask them to take Qingyue to him later. Master Yueyuan went to his residence to rest. The team that had arrived earlier have been arranged to stay in the side courtyard. If Master Yue needs anything, he can just leave it to the deacon of the hotel."
A person walked out from behind Yue Zhang and saluted Yue Qing: "Yue Ren is subject to the instructions of Master Qingyue."
Yue Qing nodded: "Okay, City Lord Yue, I understand."
Yue Zhang continued: "Yue Ke is very familiar with all the big and small things in the city. It is his good fortune that he can always follow the hospital master. If the hospital master needs anything, he can be asked to handle it on behalf of my Yue family."
Yue Qing blinked and nodded.
A young man next to Mo Xue stood up and said to Yue Zhang: "Uncle, don't worry, Yue Ke will do his best."
Yue Qing looked at him and realized that this was Yue Ke. He doesn't look very old, but he feels older than Mo Xue. As expected, Mo Xue was more free-spirited in her clothing, a bit casual.
This time he remembered it, Yue Qing smiled at him.
With her thoughts distracted, Yue Qing looked at the other two unfamiliar people among the six people arranged by the elder. Now she could guess who they were without telling her.
The slightly older one should be the doctor, and the other one should be Mo Wei from the Law Enforcement Hall. Looking at it this way, this Mo Wei is indeed more dignified than Yue Ke. Yue Qing praised herself for being smart.
Seeing that he didn't know what he was thinking, Yue Zhang saw her come back to her senses and said: "Master, you are tired after walking all the way. Let's rest first. I live in the city lord's mansion next to him. If you have anything to do, come to me and ask someone to summon you." Zhang will be there in a moment."
Yue Qing nodded. "Okay, thank you for your hard work, City Lord. Let's go slowly."
Yue Zhang saluted and led the people away, leaving only the hotel deacon who had saluted just now.
Yue Qing let out a long breath and said to Chang Shen: "Well, everyone has been gone for a day, so let's take a rest first."
Chang Shen salutes: "Yes."
Everyone saluted and prepared to leave. When I walked outside the door, someone was waiting for me, and I was taken to my residence.
Seeing that everyone had left, Yue Qing looked at the few Red Guards around her, thinking that these people should be arranged next to her room. "Hey, I'm tired too, Deacon Ren, is my place far from here?"
Yue Ren replied: "It's not far away. There is also a small sedan outside the door to pick up the master of the hospital."
Yue Qing thought in her heart: Just walk a short distance away, whatever sedan you sit in, if someone has prepared it, you can't waste someone else's efforts. Then he nodded and said: "Okay. No worries."
