Xu Hongdou dragged her suitcase and held her mobile phone as she walked on the narrow path.
Her dress is incompatible with the peaceful Yunmiao Village.
Suddenly, a loud shout startled Xu Hongdou.
"Little cutie, don't run!"
Xu Hongdou subconsciously looked towards the sound, and a huge white figure flashed past her.
"ah!"
Xu Hongdou was startled. After a closer look, he realized that the figure passing by turned out to be a white galloping horse.
The shouting man was chasing after the white horse. He looked like a teenager.
The young man was so focused on chasing the horse that he didn't see Xu Hongdou next to him. The two passed by each other, and Xu Hongdou felt a strong force coming from him, causing him to lean back uncontrollably.
Just when Xu Hongdou lost her balance, the phone in her hand was thrown away, and she almost fell to the ground, a tall figure rushed out from behind and hugged her slender waist.
Xu Hongdou, who was still in shock, subconsciously hugged the person behind him, and didn't even notice that the phone made a crisp sound when it fell to the ground.
"Are you okay?" A calm and deep voice reached Xu Hongdou's ears, and only then did she see the face of the person who saved her.
He was a man in his early thirties, handsome, with clear facial features, slightly dark skin, but a healthy bronze color.
What Xu Hongdou cared about the most was the man's voice, which was magnetic and deep, and his precise Beijing dialect gave her a sense of intimacy.
Realizing that their posture was a little inelegant, Xu Hongdou straightened up embarrassedly and then stood firm.
The man let go of his hand and took a step back to keep the distance between them. He had a good sense of propriety and looked very gentlemanly.
Xu Hongdou has worked hard in the hotel for ten years and has seen all kinds of guests. She is not embarrassed by what happened just now, but she still wants to thank the man.
"Thank you for saving me."
"It's just a piece of cake. Are you Xu Hongdou?"
The man announced Xu Hongdou's name, which made her slightly stunned.
"you know me?"
The man smiled and said: "My name is Wang Gang. Xie Xiaochun asked me to come to you."
Xu Hongdou suddenly realized it and said in confusion: "I don't think I gave Xie Xiaochun a photo, how do you know I am Xu Hongdou?"
Wang Gang pointed to Xu Hongdou's suitcase and said, "Generally, there are very few tourists who come to Yunmiao Village alone."
Xu Hongdou suddenly realized that when she contacted Xie Xiaochun to rent a house, she had said that she would come alone.
"I see, your observation skills are very keen." Xu Hongdou smiled.
Wang Gang smiled and said: "Xie Xiaochun saw that you haven't arrived yet and was worried that you would get lost. Let me help you greet you. Let's go to the windy courtyard quickly."
Xu Hongdou nodded and said, "Okay."
Wang Gang glanced at the mobile phone on the ground and asked, "Your mobile phone seems to have been broken."
Xu Hongdou groaned and realized that her phone was still on the ground. She picked it up and saw that the screen was cracked.
"Oops, my phone won't turn on! Is there a phone repair place here?"
Wang Gang said: "There is no place to repair mobile phones in the village. You may need to go to the ancient city to repair it."
"I have something very important on my phone. Can you tell me how to get to the ancient city and where to take the bus?" Xu Hongdou was puzzled.
Wang Gang looked at his watch and said regretfully: "I'm afraid it's too late today. Let's set off at this time. By the time you arrive in the ancient city, the shop that repairs mobile phones may have closed down.
Our place is small, and most shops close early.”
Xu Hongdou had no choice but to put away her phone first.
"I'll help you get your suitcase." Wang Gang said kindly.
"No, thank you, I can do it myself." Xu Hongdou declined Wang Gang's kindness, and she soon regretted it.
The windy courtyard she rented was located on a small slope, and a narrow staircase gave her trouble.
Just as Xu Hongdou was about to pick up the suitcase and go upstairs, Wang Gang picked up the suitcase first.
"This path is uneven, so be careful where you step."
The heavy suitcase felt as light as nothing in Wang Gang's hands. Xu Hongdou thanked him again and followed Wang Gang's footsteps upwards.
"You are not a local! From your accent, you should be from the capital. I am also from the capital." Xu Hongdou chatted while walking.
"I am a tenant of Youfeng Xiaoyuan, and I am also your neighbor." Wang Gang said calmly.
Xu Hongdou had actually vaguely guessed it and was not surprised.
"How long have you been here?" Xu Hongdou seemed very curious.
"It's been almost a year! I forgot the specific time. The environment here is so beautiful that it's easy for people to forget the time." Wang Gang said with a smile.
Xu Hongdou nodded and said: "Indeed, I was so nostalgic for the beautiful scenery along the way that I forgot the time I agreed with Xie Xiaochun, and I still want to trouble you to pick me up."
The two fell into silence again. It seemed that if Xu Hongdou didn't ask, Wang Gang wouldn't be able to speak.
If you want to say that he is rude, that's not true. As long as Xu Hongdou asks, Wang Gang will tell you everything, but he will never take the initiative to start a conversation.
Fortunately, Xu Hongdou is a talkative person.
"Do you know who the person who hit me just now is? I want to ask him to pay for the mobile phone."
"His name is Xie Zhiyuan, and his home is very close behind the windy courtyard." Wang Gang said, "It was an unintentional mistake for Ayuan to bump into you. He was too busy chasing the cutie and didn't notice you."
"Is that horse called Little Cutie?" Xu Hongdou asked curiously: "What an interesting name."
Wang Gang explained: "The little cutie is the horse raised by brother Xie Zhiyuan. It is very precious and Xie Zhiyuan is not allowed to touch it normally.
But this child has entered the rebellious stage, and he will touch her even if he is not allowed to do so. Sometimes he will use firecrackers to scare the little cutie, causing the horse to run away when he sees him, and this is why things like this happen."
Xu Hongdou laughed and said, "Sounds like a very naughty child. Are you familiar with their family?"
Wang Gang said: "The village is not big, and you will gradually get to know him if you look down or look up. Xie Zhiyuan's eldest brother is a very good person. You will know it after you get along with him for a long time."
The two of them walked and chatted, and soon reached the windy courtyard. Wang Gang also returned the suitcase to Xu Hongdou.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, Xu Hongdou fell in love with it.
Entering the small courtyard, a small courtyard comes into view. On the west side of Cangshan Mountain is the main building with a two-story civil structure. Connected to the north side of the main building is a pavilion and terrace. The terrace overlooks the blue sky, white clouds and the beautiful Erhai Lake.

Although I haven't checked into the room yet, Xu Hongdou felt that it was worth the money just because of the external environment. Renting it for three months was the right thing to do.
"Wait a moment, Xie Xiaochun will be here soon. I have already sent a message to her." Wang Gang pointed to a man sitting cross-legged on the left side of the yard and said:
"That's Master Ma, who is also a tenant of the courtyard. He usually likes to meditate and drink tea. Just don't disturb him when he meditates."
Xu Hongdou followed the direction of Wang Gang's finger and saw a middle-aged man with retro clothes, long hair, and a string of rosary beads hanging around his neck. He was sitting cross-legged on a stone and meditating, seemingly not caring about anything outside.
Wang Gang added: "There are three more tenants, two girls and one boy. I will introduce them to you if I have the opportunity."
Xu Hongdou nodded, and just as he was about to ask where he lived, a woman walked into the yard.
"Is this Xu Hongdou? I'm Xie Xiaochun, who has contacted you before. Welcome to Youfeng Xiaoyuan."
The woman enthusiastically took Xu Hongdou's hand and said, "I have something to do in the store, so I asked Brother Wang to help pick you up. I hope you don't mind."
"It's okay. Fortunately, Mr. Wang is here, otherwise I might be in the hospital now." Xu Hongdou glanced at Wang Gang gratefully.
"What's going on?" Xie Xiaochun looked at Wang Gang with inquiring eyes.
"Just now Ayuan was chasing a horse and hit Miss Xu." Wang Gang told Xie Xiaochun what happened.
"This Ayuan is getting more and more naughty. I'll ask Ayuan to deal with him later." Xie Xiaochun said angrily.
When Xu Hongdou heard what Xie Xiaochun said, she knew that she was familiar with the person who hit her.
"Your surname is Xie, are you the same family?" Xu Hongdou asked curiously.
Xie Xiaochun was stunned and quickly explained: "Most of the people in our village are named Xie, and they are related to each other for three generations. But don't worry, people in our village will not bully outsiders. If Ayuan broke your mobile phone, his brother will definitely
compensation."
Wang Gang said: "I happen to be going to Ayao's house for dinner later. Miss Xu, please go with me!"
Before Xu Hongdou expressed his position, Xie Xiaochun laughed first.
"It's okay, let Ayao treat Hongdou to a meal, which is also considered an apology." Xie Xiaochun turned to Xu Hongdou and said:
"The cost of repairing the mobile phone is extra!"
Seeing Xie Xiaochun's enthusiasm, Xu Hongdou found it hard to refuse.
"I'll take you to the room upstairs first and put your luggage down."
Xie Xiaochun wanted to help Xu Hongdou carry his luggage, but he didn't lift it for a while, which was a bit embarrassing.
"Sorry, the luggage I brought is a bit heavy." Xu Hongdou stuck out his tongue.
"I'll do it!" Wang Gang took the initiative to take the luggage, easily helped Xu Hongdou carry it upstairs, and then returned to his room.
Xie Xiaochun opened the door and asked Xu Hongdou to go in first and take a look.
"You live in Room 6. Next door is Brother Wang's Room 5."
Xu Hongdou was very satisfied with the room. She could see that a lot of thought had obviously been put into the furnishings in the room.
Xie Xiaochun dragged the suitcase into the room and said, "Brother Wang will take you to Ayao's house later. I have something to do in the store, so I won't go with you. If you need anything, just tell Brother Wang directly."
"Is Mr. Wang your boyfriend?" Xu Hongdou turned around and asked seemingly unintentionally.
