Jiaohua

Chapter 704 I have something to see (second update)
What the girl said was what Zhan Jiuye had been thinking about these days.

But the villagers are just like this, and he doesn't know how to change it.

Zhi Changle came over with tea, and put it on the Eight Immortals table aside politely, as if they liked it or not.

"You call yourself generals in vain," the head of the branch said coldly. "There is no military discipline, no military law, no ability to govern, and no way to manage the subordinates. When soldiers and horses fight, the first thing to look at is the general's bravery, you? The man in the yard who can't hold water You can't even move the tank!"

Fifth Master Mo was anxious, his face flushed red: "Well, what does this have to do with you, an outsider from the village?"

Zhi Changle cut his voice: "You should be glad that you are hiding in this mountain depression, but someday someone up there will be in a bad mood and call this way, I don't think you even know how to die!"

"We'll be leaving early tomorrow morning," Old Tong said at the door, "so there's no need for you to drive people away, hurry back, we have to rest early."

"Don't!" Lin Shuanglan stood up, "Miss Ali, why don't you stay?"

"Girl Lin!" Mo Wuye shouted.

"Miss Lin, go back," Xia Zhaoyi said, "It's getting late, we should rest."

"But……"

Xia Zhaoyi lowered his head and packed the books.

Lin Shuanglan felt a little lost, so she nodded, "Yes."

Coming out of the courtyard, the river is gurgling, quiet and elegant, and when you look up, you can see the lights on the other side of the village.

Several masters who had lived in the village for a long time had ugly expressions on their faces.

The other party acted like they didn't want to stay and looked down on them, which made them feel ashamed when they came to drive people away.

"I don't know where the girl came from. I've never seen anything like this before." Fifth Master Mo said.

"Miss Ali is not very nice." Lin Shuanglan said angrily.

"Rude and savage, kicking people into the water directly, you don't want to learn from her!" Fifth Master Mo said.

"It's funny," Lin Shuanglan said, "It's still rude and savage. We call any girl in our village to come out and compare with Miss A Li. Who is more elegant than her?"

"That's true," Master Zhan agreed, "Miss Ali is gentle and elegant, let alone our village, I don't think there are many people who can match her in a big town."

Zhan Qiye looked aside, saw Zhan Jiuye frowning tightly, and said, "Boqing, what are you thinking?"

Master Zhan Jiu shook his head.

"Boqing, do you have something on your mind?" Master Zhan asked.

After a while of silence, Master Zhan took a deep breath and said, "Go back first, and I'll go find this girl Ali."

"Still looking for her?" Fifth Master Mo said subconsciously.

"Well," Zhan Jiuye waved his hand, "Go back."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for them to speak, he turned and went back to the courtyard.

Xia Zhaoyi had already returned to the house, while Lao Tong and Zhi Changle were looking at the map in the hall while waiting for the hot water.

The door of the hall is open, and the evening breeze blows in slowly, bringing the unique coolness of summer, blowing over the tables, chairs and benches in the rural hall.

Hearing the sound of footsteps outside, Zhi Changle looked up, Zhan Jiuye stepped up the steps with his head down, and looked up at them.

"It's really here." Zhi Changle said.

"What?" Zhan Jiuye said, "From what you said, you know I'm coming?"

"Then what are you doing?"

Zhan Jiuye breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly raised his hands in a salute: "Please call me, I have something to see Miss Ali."

"I'll go." Lao Tong got up lazily.

Zhan Jiuye watched him leave, and then looked back at Zhi Changle.

"Sit down," Zhi Changle greeted, "A Li is still asleep."

Then he got up to make tea.

Zhan Jiuye looked around and sat down on a bamboo bench near the door.

The courtyard was full of peace, and the footsteps of Lao Tong and Zhi Changle made it even more quiet.

Zhan Jiuye stroked his beard thoughtfully, looking at the words and deeds of the two big men, it seemed that he really expected that he would turn back.

The tea made by Zhi Changle was left by the old couple who lived here.

Qingxiang Mountain is rich in tea, and Qingxiang Baiya and Qingxiang Yinzhen were once served as tribute teas.

But Zhichangle’s tea mixes the aroma of green and white buds. It is sweet, but it’s too messy, and ordinary people can’t drink the thickness. For Zhan Jiuye, who grew up tasting tea, he really feels spoil.

Said that this girl Ali is gentle and elegant, but the people around her can't even make tea?

When Xia Zhaoyi came in, he saw Zhan Jiuye staring at the curling tea smoke in a daze.

Seeing the girl coming in from the corner of the eye, Master Zhan raised his head, stood up and said, "Miss Ali."

"Master Zhan Jiu," Xia Zhaoyi said.

Zhan Jiuye watched her go and sit down.

The girl was still wearing the azure dress in the daytime, her footsteps were too light, and the hem of the skirt was flowing like water.

This kind of elegant temperament is by no means an ordinary thing.

Master Zhan Jiu suddenly felt that Jian Su's living room didn't seem to be simple anymore, and she became the most elegant and beautiful scene in the house.

"Miss Ali, please take a break," said Zhan Jiuye, "Miss Ali, you told the origins of the Zhan family and the Mo family as soon as you came here today. Did you pay more attention to Qingxiang Village?"

"That's not true," Xia Zhaoyi shook his head, "The princes have many descendants, scattered branches all over the world. In Qingxiang Village, there are descendants of Lord Anshun and Lord Chongjun, and nearby villages in cities and counties also have descendants of Lord Huaiyi and King Xuanxian. .”

Zhan Jiuye paused: "You mean, it's just a coincidence?"

"It's really a coincidence. I saw that you have quite a lot of status in the village, so I asked casually."

"..."

After a while of silence, Lord Zhan raised his eyebrows: "No, I still don't quite believe it. If it's according to what you said, do you know all the descendants of the nearby princes? Or do you just know the Zhan family and the Mo family?"

"I know that I dare not take it, but I do know a lot. It is good for Zhan Jiuye to be more careful and vigilant, but in my eyes, there is nothing special about you."

The girl's voice was clear and pleasant, and there was no wave in her voice. Master Zhan listened, his eyebrows furrowed tighter and tighter.

"So, I'll test girls?" Zhan Jiuye said.

"Let's take the test," Xia Zhaoyi said, "but this kind of self-certification is extremely absurd. I hope Master Zhan Jiu can apologize afterwards."

"It's inevitable."

Congxin is one of the oldest and largest cities in Youzhou. A large number of allusions related to farming myths all originated from Congxin.

The birthplace of civilization is often accompanied by the birth of a large number of princes and grandchildren, but the sun and the moon rotate, and it is not possible for the direct line to preserve the wealth of the ancestors, not to mention the offshoots.

Zhan Jiuye's branch was not from the local princes of Xin, but moved northward during the Tianning period of the previous dynasty. It is the collateral blood of the descendants of the Zhan family.

Let Zhan Jiuye find the same branch a hundred years ago by himself, and Zhan Jiuye has to go through the genealogy.

But now, the girl in front of him has all told.

She can even talk more.

In a always flat tone, she quietly talked about the rise and fall of several major families and clans in Congxin, the changes of officials in the past dynasties, the evolution of the county government system, the transformation and construction of urban and rural areas, and even the beginning of several official roads in Congxin. When did construction start and when did it finish.

Zhan Jiuye, who said that he wanted to test the other party, was dumbfounded and could not say a word.
