The car was not taking the same road that Li Yan and Yushu took down the mountain last time. Li Yan looked outside for a while and then lowered the curtain.

Outside the car window, in addition to trees and flowers growing freely, there are also farmland crops that are so green that they are full of vitality. There are no people, and not even a village can be seen. Li Yan looked all the way to see such green and uninhabited green.

I'm tired of it. Besides, she shouldn't expend too much energy right now. She should take a good rest. When she got to the villa, she didn't know what to do.

Li Yan put down the curtain, moved, half lying down, half sitting, leaning on the pillow, and closed his eyes.

Yushu took a silk cotton quilt and put it on her body.

Jin Dou glanced at his father a few times. Logically speaking, the girls were already asleep, so he shouldn't hide outside the carriage... He shouldn't look or think too much. He came in and out, always on horseback, what the hell.

I've been in a car before... Although I don't ride in a car, there are always three or five big cars like this on the mountain, and here is one...

Jin Dou looked intently at the tip of his nose with his eyebrows lowered. Are you looking at Miss Li? This Miss Li... The incident with Yusu also frightened the rest of them...

………………

When the car arrived at the gate of Duoyun Villa, it was exactly the right time.

Li Yan opened the car curtain and looked at the brightly lit Cloudy Villa.

At the gate, two or three rows of lanterns lined up like wild geese wings. The orange lights shone on the black clothes of the guards, casting a hazy warmth on top of the strong chilling atmosphere.

At nearly midnight, the mountain wind was fierce. Yushu put a small fur cloak on Li Yan, pulled up the hood and closed the curtain. Pei Qing stood at the door of the car, reached out to help Li Yan down, looked down at her, and stood up for her.

She straightened the hood and cloak straps, gathered the cloak for her, and stood sideways to shield her from the wind, "The mountain wind is cold, so wrap the cloak tightly."

You Qing, the general manager of Duoyun Villa, stood beside him with his hands down, staring closely at Pei Qing, who only looked at Li Yan with great concern.

"Greetings to the Seventeenth Master and greetings to the eldest lady." You Qing stepped forward and fell to his knees before Pei Qing helped him. He kowtowed to Pei Qing first and then turned to Li Yan.

Pei Qing's bent body paused, slowed down for a moment, and waited for You Qing to kowtow to Li Yan before bending down to help him up.

Li Yan stepped aside, bent his knees and returned the half salute.

"Uncle You has worked hard these days." Pei Qing helped You Qing up, smiling like a spring breeze. You Qing didn't dare to say anything, and bowed aside.

Pei Qing naturally, as if unconsciously, put her arms around Li Yan's back. While walking in in step with her, she asked casually: "Has the eldest lady's residence been tidied up?"

"First we clean up the Zhifeng Courtyard." You Qing replied respectfully, "I thought that the Anxiu Courtyard where the eldest lady lived before was a little rough and simple, and secondly, it was located in a corner of the villa and was extremely inconvenient.

I dared to take the initiative and clean up the Zhifengyuan first. If it is not suitable, I will clean it up somewhere else."

Li Yan held Yushu's arm and listened silently while walking. It turned out that the courtyard where she once lived was called Anxiuyuan.

Not crude, there is no difference.

As for where Zhifeng Yuan was, whether it was good or bad, or what the underlying meaning was, she had no idea.

Pei Qing's expression was as usual, but he glanced at You Qing twice. Zhifeng Courtyard was close to Nan'an Courtyard, which was the residence of Pei Yan, the ancestor of the Pei family, in Duoyun Villa...

"Yes." Pei Qing hummed without comment, "The eldest lady has been sick and has been returning for a long distance. She is exhausted along the way. Let's rest first. I will send you to Zhifengyuan first." Pei Qing's first few words were

Talking to You Qing, the last sentence looked down at Li Yan.

Li Yan looked up at him and nodded with a smile. She didn't know why he behaved like this, but it was nothing, she would always know...

From the gate of Duoyun Villa to Zhifeng Courtyard, we walked almost straight along the central axis. After walking for half a quarter of an hour, we crossed a small stone bridge. After walking a few more steps, we arrived in front of an exquisite courtyard. At the entrance of the courtyard,

Standing with hands hanging down were a dozen middle-aged servants in blue clothes and blue skirts.

The leading maid stepped forward to greet him and led him sideways. You Qing stopped at the entrance of the courtyard, but Pei Qing held Li Yan in his arms and walked straight into the courtyard, along the hand-cooked corridor, through the hanging flower door, and into the upper room.

You Qing stood at the door of the courtyard, watching Pei Qing enter the hanging flower door. He couldn't tell what his expression was. After a while, he slowly turned around, walked slowly down the steps, and stood four or five steps outside the door of the courtyard, waiting for Pei Qing.

Clear it out.

In Zifeng Courtyard, the flowers and plants are lush and green, the birds are bright, the upper room is as warm as late spring, and the fragrance of green bergamot is faint, seemingly present or not, refreshing.

On the kang under the south window, there were several plates of snacks that looked like they had just been baked out of the oven, and a cup of tea filled with smoke. Everything was ready, as if Li Yan had lived here for a long time and just took a walk outside.

Li Yan stood in the room, turned around and looked around without any concealment. Pei Qing stood next to her, lowered his head, looking at her intently without concealment.

"How's it going? Is it okay?" Pei Qing asked with a warm smile in his tone after Li Yanzai looked at it carefully.

"Very good." Li Yan turned around and looked at Pei Qing, "I won't find fault with this." After a pause, Li Yan smiled, "I can't fault it. I think it's already great."

"That's good." Pei Qing seemed to be relieved, "You can stay here for two days. If you feel it's not good here, we'll find another place."

"Okay." Li Yan smiled and Pei Qing hesitated, "Then I go back first? You..."

"I'm fine. Yushu is here. You're tired too, and it's getting late." Li Yan immediately answered. Pei Qing's eyes flashed with disappointment and a little struggle. He took a half step back, his smile still unchanged, "Then I

Let’s go back first. Just tell me what you want and what you want to eat. Have a good rest tonight and tomorrow too.”

Li Yan smiled and nodded.

"Then I'm leaving." Pei Qing said and left, but did not turn around. Instead, he raised his hand and carefully smoothed out a few strands of Li Yan's hair. "Let Yushu wait for you to go to bed early. You are weak."

"The most important thing is to take good care of your body. Everything else can be put aside."

"I know, thank you." Li Yan watched Pei Qing turn around and walk out of the hanging flower door, hesitated for a moment, "Let's take a shower and wash up first."

Yushu called the maid in. Li Yan washed her hands quickly, came out and sat on the kang, and put on a jacket. Yushu sat sideways on the edge of the kang, holding a stack of large cotton handkerchiefs to twist her hair. Li Yan bowed
