Chapter 307: Gatekeeper



Wu Linger sat down opposite Fu Xiaoguan, looked at the painting again, and her mood returned to calm.

She will pursue it, and as for the result... the result is of course important, but it cannot be forced.

If he doesn't like it, at least I have loved it.

Ning Siyan then bowed to Fu Xiaoguan:

"This was my mother's only long-cherished wish before she died. With this poem of yours, I feel it has come true. I have no more worries now, but now I suddenly find myself with nowhere to go. How about... I become your concierge here, is that okay?"

As if worried that Fu Xiaoguan would disagree, he added, "With me guarding the door, none of the students from the Wu Dynasty will dare to disturb your peace."

Fu Xiaoguan was immediately delighted. This guy's skills were very impressive. He only lost to his father by half a sword!

His father is a top-notch master, so he is naturally a top-notch master as well.

With such a doorman who can also intimidate those teenagers who come to provoke him, he certainly would not refuse.

"Don't you feel wronged?"

Ning Siyan also sat down and took a sip of wine. "I have never felt wronged, either before or now."

Fu Xiaoguan pondered for a moment and asked, "Your father...where did he go?"

Ning Siyan was silent for a moment, "After selling this yard, he said he was going to Canghai."

"What are you going to do in Canghai?"

Ning Siyan sneered and took another sip of wine. "There is a Luomei Mountain in the Canghai Sea. It is said that the Martial Saint You Beidou lives there. He wants to find You Beidou to fight."

Fu Xiaoguan's eyes widened. You Beidou was a Saint-level expert, while Ning Fatian was only at the peak of the first-class level... "Is he going to break through the Saint level?"

Ning Siyan nodded slightly: "Maybe, or maybe die!"

Su Jue suddenly straightened his hat, and the wooden sword behind him was actually ready to move.

Su Rou raised her slender eyes and looked at Su Jue, and then Su Jue's wooden sword gradually became quiet.

Fu Xiaoguan and his party settled down in this place. He felt that the name of Xianqingju was a bit inappropriate - he was not idle, but very busy. Of course, it was also because this place had been a brothel for a period of time, so he changed the name of this place back to Jinghu Villa.

This name is grand and sounds classy, ​​but the name is still only written on the stone. He thought about building a memorial archway outside, but then he thought that he would not stay here for long, and... if Wenhui lost, this villa would belong to someone else.

As for Wu Linger, she had already left, saying that she had some things to do in the palace. Fu Xiaoguan wished she had more things to do. He didn't want to think about Wu Linger. Thinking too much would give him a headache.

Dong Shulan, Yu Wenjun and the others cleaned up the main house and divided the rooms. They had no plans to look for human traffickers to buy some servants. The reason was the same: after all, this was the Wu Dynasty, not their roots.

Ning Siyan really went to the outside of Jinghu Villa, where there was a small building. He moved a chair and sat at the door without a gatehouse.

He just lay on the chair, taking a sip from the wine gourd from time to time, with no expression of joy or sadness on his face, as if he saw through the world.

At the time of Shen, Deng Xiu arrived at Jinghu Villa.

Fu Xiaoguan was drinking tea and chatting with Su Jue at this moment.

"How about Ning Siyan's Kung Fu?"

Su Jue thought for a moment, "Similar to Jianlin's Senior Brother Zuo Henhua, he probably has already seen the door to the Saint Stage."

This was even higher than Fu Xiaoguan's guess, which made Fu Xiaoguan feel a little discouraged. They were both seventeen years old, so why was there such a big gap?

As if he could see Fu Xiaoguan's mood, Su Jue continued, "Talent is extremely important in martial arts, just like when you write poetry and prose, it can't be compensated by hard work alone."

Fu Xiaoguan thought to himself, actually you all don’t know, I don’t have any talent for poetry at all!

Deng Xiu came before Fu Xiaoguan, bowed, and said, "According to your Excellency's instructions, I have booked the Jinshuilou Restaurant next to Shili Pinghu. This restaurant is a century-old restaurant in Guanyun City, and it specializes in Jinling cuisine. To be honest, your Excellency, the food in Wu Dynasty is far inferior to the exquisite food in Jinling. I thought that since you just came from Jinling and might not be accustomed to the food in Wu Dynasty, I took the initiative to book a room there. Is that okay?"

"Okay, when do we leave?"

"This Jinghu Villa is a bit far from Shili Pinghu. I would like to ask you to set off now."

Fu Xiaoguan stood up and shouted, and everyone came to the yard and walked out of the villa together.

At the door, Fu Xiaoguan invited Ning Siyan, but of course he refused and only asked Fu Xiaoguan to bring him a jar of Xishan Tianchun.

Fu Xiaoguan thought to himself that he seemed to have a bit too many drunks around him. There was Bai Yulian in Xishan, who also drank constantly. There was Su Mo in Biancheng, whose alcoholism was getting worse and worse. He wondered if that girl Taohua could get him to quit. And today, he'd hired a drunken doorman. This guy was becoming known as a drunkard. If these three got together in the future, how much Xishan Tianchun would I have to supply them with in a single day?

It hurts just thinking about it. Forget it, I don’t want to bother with them, let’s go!

The group got on the carriage, with Deng Xiu leading the way, and they headed towards Shili Pinghu.

Fu Xiaoguan was naturally mixed in the carriage of Dong Shulan, Yu Wenyun and others. The two women were very excited and chattered about Jinghu Villa.

"That Yuanyang Pavilion is so beautifully built, especially that bed. I've never seen a bed that big. I don't know what Ning Fatian was thinking."

Dong Shulan chuckled and glanced at Fu Xiaoguan. "The bed in Ruyu Tower is also very big. I like Ruyu Tower more. The wardrobe is beautiful, and the dressing table is made of fragrant nan wood. It seems that the one million taels of silver for this villa is really worth it."

"Let's go to the Star Picking Tower tomorrow. I've never seen a building that tall. I heard it's a hundred feet high, and you can see the entire Guanyun City from there... You said Guanyun City is already in the clouds. If we go up to the Star Picking Tower, wouldn't we be standing on the clouds?"

"Hehe, of the three famous terraces in Guanyun City, I didn't expect that one of them would be in Jinghu Villa. Let's go up and take a look tomorrow morning."

"Since it's called Picking Stars, shouldn't it be more beautiful at night?"

Fu Xiaoguan was speechless for a moment, so he said, "It's your own property anyway. You can go up and look at it whenever you want. You have nothing to do anyway, so you can stay up there all day."

Dong Shulan rolled her eyes at him and said, "How come we have nothing to do? Tomorrow we have to go to Guanyun City and have a good walk. If we happen to find a shop, we have to try to sell those products."

"Why don't we go visit my second aunt tomorrow. She's familiar with this place, and with her leading the way, we can save a lot of effort."
