After looking at the sun hanging high outside, Ye Fuxun knew that he had overslept. He stood up suddenly and looked at his side. Bai Yuxian was no longer there, so he hurriedly got dressed.
As soon as she had put on her clothes and was about to go out, Bai Yuxian opened the door and came in, carrying several plates of side dishes and a small pot of porridge.
"Are you awake? You must be hungry, right? Oh, I'm so nice to bring you lunch. Come and eat."
Ye Fuxun stared at Bai Yuxian for several times and found that his expression was much better. He felt relieved and walked over. "Why didn't you wake me up? We wasted half a day and we still have to go."
Where is Zhoujiapu?"
"I saw you were asleep, so I didn't call you."
On the second day, we finally arrived in Qingcheng.
Qingcheng is not big, nor is it a very prosperous place. It has a small population and is not that lively. Moreover, the buildings here are relatively old, and there is an air of antiquity everywhere.
The three of them rode into the city and arrived at Zhoujiabao in less than a stick of incense.
Zhoujiapu is indeed a famous sect in the world. Its mansion is very spacious, the exterior walls are made of cyan bricks, and the tiles on the roof are black, giving it a heavy atmosphere.
There were several guards guarding the door with solemn expressions. When they saw someone coming, they immediately asked: "Who are you looking for?"
Situ Yunhao took out the greeting card, handed it to the guard, and said, "I am Situ Yunhao, and I am here to visit your castle master."
The guard took the invitation, but felt a little embarrassed, and said, "What a coincidence, our castle master has been away from home for the past few days and will not be back until tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I'm afraid I won't be able to give your invitation to him today."
"What? The castle master has gone away?" Situ Yunhao was slightly startled, looked at Ye Fuxun and Bai Yuxian, and then asked: "Then, is your eldest lady here?"
The eldest lady naturally refers to Zhou Yan.
"The eldest lady is here," the guard replied. Just when he was about to say please wait a moment, an older man came over, stared at Situ Yunhao twice, and called with a smile: "Master Situ?"
"Uncle Zhou!" Situ Yunhao recognized him at a glance. He was the housekeeper of Zhou Family Fort. Everyone in the Zhou family called him Uncle Zhou. Situ Yunhao had been here many times when he was a child, so he naturally knew him.
It's just that Situ Yunhao hasn't been here in recent years, and his appearance has changed a bit. Uncle Zhou didn't recognize him immediately. "You kid, I haven't seen you for several years, but you have grown more and more handsome, and you have become even more unrecognizable to Uncle Zhou."
Situ Yunhao scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and said with a blush, "Uncle Zhou, please stop making fun of me. You haven't changed much over the years. You are still as young as before."
This compliment made Uncle Zhou extremely happy, and he kept praising Situ Yunhao for being able to speak. The two chatted for a while, and then Uncle Zhou noticed that there were two other people traveling with Situ Yunhao.
"Who are these two?"
Situ Yunhao looked at Ye Fuxun and introduced: "This is my cousin Yu Siling, who is also the granddaughter of the old village owner." Then he looked at Bai Yuxian and said: "This is my cousin's husband-in-law, Mr. Xiao."
The identity of Prince Bai Yuxian Dongchen was too eye-catching, so Situ Yunhao did not reveal it.
Bai Yuxian and Ye Fuxun cupped their hands and said hello: "Uncle Zhou."
Uncle Zhou's eyes suddenly lit up, he looked at the two of them as if he had seen something new, and said with a smile: "
I have met the Miss Song family once. My cousin is really printed in the same mold as her. She is just as beautiful. She is one of the best beauties in the world. She is a perfect match for this handsome cousin.
"
"Uncle Zhou is so complimentary." Ye Fuxun couldn't help but smile, thinking that this Uncle Zhou was really an interesting person, he paid attention to people's appearance when he met them.
Uncle Zhou is a man who talks a lot. He would talk about this for a while, and then talk about that for a while. He was the only one who talked all the way to the front hall while leading the three of them.
Ye Fuxun and Bai Yuxian were both silently observing the environment inside, and did not listen carefully to what Uncle Zhou and Situ Yunhao were talking about.
When they arrived at the front hall, Uncle Zhou asked the three people to sit down, ordered people to serve refreshments, and then sent the invitations to the Lord's study.
"The castle master left the courtyard a few days ago and won't be back until at least tomorrow. You have to wait for a day or two."
Bai Yuxian said: "I'm just going to bother you all. I'm really sorry."
Uncle Zhou waved his hand and said with a kind smile: "Cousin, please don't be so polite. We are all members of our own family, why should we bother you? If you can come, it's not too late for us to welcome you."
Just as he was talking, a cheerful voice like an oriole came from outside: "I heard that Situ Yunhao is here? Where is he? Where is he?"
Hearing his voice before seeing him, they knew it was Zhou Yan who was coming. Everyone turned their heads to look at the door, and saw Zhou Yan in aqua blue skirt trotting in like a flying bird.
butterfly.
She saw Situ Yunhao first, stepped closer to him, patted his shoulder with a smile, and said, "Situ, it's you who is here. It's been a long time."
Situ Yunhao showed an exaggerated expression of disgust, pushed Zhou Yan's hand away from his shoulder, and said, "Isn't it just a few months? How long?"
Zhou Yan curled her lips and still leaned shamelessly on Situ Yunhao's shoulder: "Humph, I'll give you a good look, and you'll look more confident."
Just after saying this, Zhou Yan raised her eyelids and saw that Bai Yuxian was there. She immediately restrained her movements, stood up straight, and assumed the posture of a lady.
"Sister Ling and Prince Wang are here too? Really, really rare visitors, rare visitors!"
Uncle Zhou didn't pay attention to the word "Prince" in Zhou Yan's mouth, but he was shocked by Zhou Yan's performance. He was jumping up and down just now. He was so careless, how could he change into a different person in the blink of an eye?
"Miss, you are also the second in charge of our Zhou Family Fort. Can you please pay attention to your image and not be so arrogant?"
Zhou Yan is still a child at heart, and the title "Second Master" was given to her by Zhou Yan herself, just to sound powerful. "What happened to the Second Master? Who said that the Second Master must be stable and mature? Uncle Zhou, you just
He likes to scold me."
After saying that, he turned to look at Ye Fuxun, came close to her, glanced secretly at Bai Yuxian beside her, and said, "Sister Ling, why do you have time to come to Zhoujiabao to play?"
"We..." Ye Fuxun was thinking about how to answer her, but Situ Yunhao beat him to it: "What 'play'? Do you think everyone is just like you and just wants to have fun? We are here today.
There are serious things to do."
Zhou Yan pursed her lips, glanced at Situ Yunhao, ignored him, and asked Ye Fuxun directly: "Sister Ling, what do you have to do? Do you need my help?"
Ye Fuxun thought for a while and said: "We are actually looking for someone, that is Senior Zhou Beard, a famous doctor in the world and known as the Medical Immortal."
You guys are looking for my second uncle. He hasn't been here for a long time, and we don't know where he has gone.
Now there is no news."
Hearing this, Ye Fuxun was a little frustrated. Even Zhou Yan and Uncle Zhou didn't know the whereabouts of Zhou Beard. They didn't know if Zhou Yue, as the castle master, would have a different answer.
