Chapter 140 Ye Yuanhai
Butler Chen repeatedly told the master to be in poor health and could not feel irritated and not tell the master about the Tian family. Then he gently knocked on the door and sent Gu Changfeng into the living room.
The reception room of Ye’s mansion is not small, and it should be the main place for Ye’s family to gather and meet. The decoration in the reception room is also very low-key and heavy. The tables and chairs with yellow flowers are arranged in a water. Even the vases and decorations around them are solid antiques of the previous dynasty. Although they look not good, their appearance is all the best.
Before Gu Changfeng finished the decorations in the living room, he saw a vigorous and energetic old man with white hair laughing and greeted him. The old man was in his seventies, with a steady temperament and his legs seemed inconvenient. He needed to rely on a simple and light green bamboo branch crutch in his movements. However, this old man paid great attention to health preservation on weekdays. Although he was over 70 years old, his appearance did not show much of his old look.
This old man with white hair is not someone else, but Ye Yuanhai, the head of the Ye family. The medical path has reached its peak. Except for the extremely rare and complicated diseases in this world, the rest of the diseases are basically cured by hand and medicine. Moreover, Ye Yuanhai is not only skilled in medicine, but also has a kind heart for doctors who can save the world. In recent years, for those poor people, not only do not receive medical fees in many cases, but also pay for the medicines and medicines many times. Every time the coldest days, porridge sheds are built to provide extensively. Now that Ye Yuanhai goes out, everyone calls him "Ye Shanren".
Since seven years ago, Ye Yanglu, the old man from the Ye family, began to take over the work of consulting in the Ye family's pharmacy. In the past seven years, Ye Yuanhai has basically put down his life for half his life. Except for those who have extremely high status or are in a difficult condition, Ye Yuanhai will take the lead in diagnosis and treatment. Most of the time, Ye Yuanhai is spending his days in his life.
Ye Yuanhai came to Gu Changfeng, first looked Gu Changfeng up and down in detail, and then exclaimed repeatedly: "Brother Qi is indeed a wise person. After retiring and returning home, he is not a little better than my two sons. He is zhilan and jade trees, and his weapons are majestic. I have only seen these two words in operas before, but I didn't expect to finally see the real person today."
Gu Changfeng tidied up his clothes, bowed his hands and said sincerely: "Old Master Ye praised it. Qi Shan's adopted son Qi Feng has seen Mr. Ye. He took the liberty to visit him today without prior notice. Qi Feng disturbed him."
Now Qi Shan has officially become a military advisor and aide in the Daode Sect. Although he has retired now, his connections are still there. Today, Gu Changfeng is visiting the door, using Qi Shan's identity as an adopted son.
Ye Yuanhai stretched out his left hand to help Gu Changfeng up, pretending to blow his beard and glared, "What are you saying, a child? I remember that although I met Brother Qi only several times, I was a gentleman and a friend of life. After Brother Qi retired, I was also very eager to drink and have fun with Brother Qi again. Unfortunately, Brother Qi lived a life of idle clouds and wild cranes. I am older and my legs are inconvenient, so it is extremely inconvenient to go out. This has always been a regret in my heart. Today, when you come to Qifeng, you can be considered a matter of my heart."
At the end of the day, Ye Yuanhai's smile unconsciously retracted, and the sadness and regret in his eyes and words could not be pretended.
Gu Changfeng was a little silent. Although he was young, he still had some understanding of the feelings that Ye Yuanhai said. In this world, for the elderly, transportation and communication are extremely unfavorable, especially for older people, it is difficult for older people to go out. For those old friends, meeting each year may be the last time.
However, Ye Yuanhai is also an open-minded person. After sighing, he immediately cheered up his spirits a little, grabbed Gu Changfeng's wrist with his left hand, and led him to the seat to sit down. Although Ye Yuanhai is old, his palms are still wide and powerful. When he holds Gu Changfeng's wrist, the latter can clearly feel the warm temperature being transmitted continuously.
As soon as he sat down, Ye Yuanhai gently tapped his bamboo stick. The bamboo stick looked light, but the sound made at the moment of touching the ground was crisp and long. The maid who was serving at the door immediately opened the door and came in. Ye Yuanhai was extremely happy now and waved his hand and said happily: "Tell me the best tea in the mansion to me, and the Yangzhou pastries sent by Lord Yi, all of them will be delivered to me!"
The maid received the order, Yingying bowed and sang a promise and went down to prepare.
Gu Changfeng sat upright and waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be polite, Mr. Ye, you are used to struggling outside. Before being taken to the door by Mr. Qi, you have eaten any hardships in the market and seen anything. Mr. Ye doesn't need to be concerned about it. You can get some steamed buns and vegetables, and Qi Feng can also get used to it."
Ye Yuanhai admired Gu Changfeng's "true temperament". His waist was straight and his hands were placed on the bamboo stick. While looking at Gu Changfeng happily, he laughed: "Nephew Qi, this is your first time to Luoyun City and your first time to come to Ye's Mansion. Even if it is not this brother Qi's relationship here, I have to treat you well. Otherwise, my Ye family would have to be a bad reputation for being a poor guest and not understanding etiquette and rules? Nephew Qi, don't want to see you. Even if you come to Ye's Mansion, don't call me Mr. Ye. If you don't dislike me, you should still call me "Uncle Ye" and I call you "Uncle Qi"?
Gu Changfeng bowed his hand, sincerely with joy: "Qi Feng can't ask for it."
At this time, Butler Chen personally brought two maids to the table and put the brewed new tea on the coffee table to fill the two of them. Then he placed four plates of exquisite Yangzhou pastries on the table one by one. Not to mention how the pastry tasted, the appearance alone was not something ordinary people could afford.
Ye Yuanhai attached great importance to Gu Changfeng, gently pushed the four plates of pastries in the direction of Gu Changfeng, and smiled with the kind smile of the elders when they looked at the proud younger generation, saying, "Nephew Qi, come and try these plates of pastries. They are all exquisite snacks from the south. Although they are not very hungry, they are still very good as ordinary snacks."
Gu Changfeng was playing a young and junior with an extremely true temperament. After facing the four plates of pastries pushed by Ye Yuanhai, he nodded and sincerely thanked him. He immediately opened his hands and feasted on his face. While eating, he couldn't help but look happy.
Ye Yuanhai's smile even more. Seeing Gu Changfeng's mouth was stuffed with bulging, he couldn't help but send it to his mouth. He immediately handed the tea over there: "Don't choke, don't choke, come and have a sip of tea to moisten his throat."
Gu Changfeng's mouth was occupied by pastries at this time, so of course he had no energy to be polite with Ye Yuanhai. After nodding, he picked up the teacup and pecked the hot tea, and then feasted again without any hesitation.
The appearance of Yangzhou pastries is better than exquisiteness, but sometimes the word exquisiteness has another saying.
Small amount.
After just half a quarter of an hour, Gu Changfeng swept away the four plates of pastries in the air, and even picked up the pastry residue and threw it into his mouth. Unfortunately, he didn't even feel full in his stomach.
It was said to be four plates of pastries, but Gu Changfeng probably added up to less than three taels.
However, the taste of these pastries is really unspeakable. They are sweet but not greasy and have endless aftertaste. Unfortunately, in front of Gu Changfeng, the country bumpkin, everything was swallowed by him like a cow chewing a peony. Moreover, this guy didn't even know the other three names except for knowing an osmanthus cake.
Ye Yuanhai was even more relaxed and happy at this time. Seeing his friend's nephew in his later life reveal his true nature at home, it was extremely happy for an elderly person like Ye Yuanhai. After all, they were just like this in their life and could support the back with a promising and potential, which should be the happiest thing for them.
After touching the ground with a bamboo stick again, the maid cleaned the plates on the table and added hot tea again, Ye Yuanhai asked with a smile: "Nephew, is this pastry still in tune with you?"
Although he only lost one word, his relationship has taken a big step.
Gu Changfeng nodded with regret: "Of course there is nothing to say, but the quantity is slightly smaller, and before I could taste the aftertaste, it was gone."
Ye Yuanhai was slightly stunned at first, but after reacting, he raised his head and laughed. After a long time of laughter, he said happily: "My nephew, I'm not stingy. This pastry is sweet and you can't eat too much. Now it's time to apply for the brand, and it's almost time to use supper. Don't worry, I'll order you a good banquet tonight and welcome you."
Gu Changfeng was very happy at first, but then remembered something, and hesitated and asked: "Ye Shiwang, will there be wine at night... tonight?"
Ye Yuanhai smiled very happily: "No matter what, the Ye family can still take out a few jars of wine. At night, my nephew let go and drink it. If I put this words here today, I will definitely let my nephew drink it to the fullest!"
Gu Changfeng scratched the back of her head and smiled embarrassedly, with a slight look shy.
Ye Yuanhai also stopped and did not joke with the boy again. After waving his hand to call a maid, he smiled and said, "Nephew, there are many empty houses in our Ye Mansion. The best one is in Beiyuan. You can choose one by yourself. You can stay in which room you want. This maid is called Xiao Tao. She is smart and sensible. She will be your personal maid these days. If it is not convenient, I will tell you that, and I will change it to you."
Gu Changfeng stood up, bowed and clasped his fists: "Then Qi Feng thanked Uncle Ye first. He took the opportunity to come to the door today. He really caused trouble for Uncle Ye."
Ye Yuanhai waved his hand indifferently, and after giving a few more words of sincerity, he asked Xiao Tao to lead Gu Changfeng to choose the room.
