Situ Shengyun actually waved his hand without hesitation and said: "Everyone, go down."
The two rows of people standing in the room were all gone in an instant, except for the old man standing behind him who seemed to be frozen in place and didn't move, dozing off with his eyes closed.
Xiang Que was a little stunned and said a little embarrassedly: "Mr. Situ, I'm a little flattered by your behavior."
"Sir, if you say you are not used to it, then you really are not used to it. You have to be happy both physically and mentally when eating. In fact, there are so many people sitting and standing while I eat and they watch. It really doesn't feel good," Situ Shengyun said with a smile.
: "But for me, sometimes I can't help myself. I have developed this habit since I was a child. There are too many rules and things at home. As time goes by, I don't care too much."
"If you are a big family, you will inevitably have more rules. It's not like when I was in the mountains, I had two buckets to eat, one bucket for rice and one bucket for vegetables. I scooped out the bowl and ate directly. What kind of rules are there? It's the rule when you're full.
Xiang Que said with a smile.
Situ Shengyun pointed to the food on the table and gestured to Que to use his chopsticks, and then casually continued to ask: "Which mountain did you come down from, sir?"
Xiang Que picked up his rice bowl, picked up his chopsticks and said: "Zhongnan Mountain"
"Oh, Zhongnan Mountain? Quanzhen teaches me that I know it. I saw it from Mr. Jin's novels."
"Famous mountain, famous family" nodded to the shortcomings and said with a smile: "My place is a deep mountain in the Zhongnan Mountains. It has nothing to do with the Quanzhen Sect. The Quanzhen Sect has swept away more people than ours. Let's break up.
Even if you count on your fingers, even a slap is not enough. There must be even fewer people now. There is only one left."
Speaking of this, Xiang Que felt a little lonely. Lao Tao was indeed the only one left in Gujing Temple now. He ate alone and slept alone. His life might be a little lonely.
However, Xiang Que felt that it didn't matter anymore. Didn't the old Taoist say angrily before that he would wait until the peach blossoms bloomed all over the Tianshan Mountains to go to that Jingci Temple to find a nun? There was nothing to worry about.
"If the water is not deep, there are dragons and spirits. The deeper the mountains, the more masters appear. This should be a law in my opinion, because all masters are unwilling to get involved in the world and only pursue their own mental desires." Xiang Quena
He casually picked up a few green vegetables in front of him with his chopsticks, and he couldn't say anything about it. He couldn't continue what the other person said and said, yes, I am indeed an expert.
Situ Shengyun glanced at the food in Xiang Que's hand and asked in surprise: "It doesn't taste good?"
Xiang Que ate some vegetarian dishes, and only had meat once or twice, and basically didn't touch anything else. But judging from his eating appearance, it didn't look like he couldn't let go, he was almost like a picky eater.
"The food is good and tastes good, but I can't enjoy it, haha..." Xiang Que shook his head and smiled.
After the light meal, Xiang Que said goodbye. During the meal, the two of them simply chatted for a few days without going too deep.
After Xiang Que left, Situ Shengyun wiped his mouth, stood up and said respectfully to the old man behind him: "Fourth Uncle, what do you think?"
"Not arrogant or impetuous, that's good," the fourth uncle said vaguely, still closing his eyes.
This sentence left Situ Shengyun stunned.
So far, there are only a few young people of the younger generation inside and outside Hongmen who can be praised by him. It seems that the last time he praised him was three years ago, and now it has been many years since he praised other young people.
People looked at him differently.
This fourth uncle is not a relative of Situ Shengyun. The title of fourth uncle comes from his father. His ancestors followed Mr. Situ Meitang and founded Hongmen Zhigong Tang together. Since then, they have been given to Situ Meitang.
Tang Lai has been serving the Situ family for more than a hundred years.
The ancestor of the fourth uncle was the first generation head of Hongmen, Shuanghua Honggang. When Hongmen opened, there were constant troubles. To put it simply, there were always kickers. The ancestor of the fourth uncle was in charge of the main hall at that time. Whenever trouble came, it could not be dealt with.
, he took over it all by himself, and in the first five years since Hongmen opened, it was all thanks to him that he built a reputation.
The fourth uncle and his family were all members of the Hongmen family. It was not until he retired when he was fifty that he began to cultivate his moral character and ignore political affairs. This time when Situ Shengyun returned to China, he invited him out to follow him.
around.
"You said it's good, but why is it so good? Where did you find it?" Situ Shengyun asked.
Fourth uncle opened his eyes, put his hands in his sleeves and said slowly: "I can't tell, I just rely on feeling."
Situ Shengyun hummed and stopped asking.
For two days in a row, Xiang Que stayed at the Four Seasons Hotel and did not go out, because Situ Shengyun did not move in these two days. Since he had a large team with him, it was more convenient to deal with business and private matters.
Two days later, in the early morning, Shen Jianwei knocked on Xiang Que's door.
"Xiang Xiansang, Situ Xiansang and Jingtian are going to Sanghai. Get ready and we will set off at nine o'clock next time." He said this to Xiang Que very chatty and left.
After the person disappeared, Xiang Que said "oh" and realized what he was talking about.
"Hey, dating someone who can't straighten his tongue will make your heart and ears tired."
At 8:50, Xiang Que came outside the hotel lobby and waited while smoking a cigarette with his hands behind his back. Ten minutes later, a large group of people walked out of the hotel. By this time, a long motorcade had stopped outside.
There was a Rolls-Royce Phantom in the middle of a Mercedes-Benz 600, and two business cars were parked aside for Situ Shengyun's casual people to ride.
"Sir, please get in the car, let's go together." Situ Shengyun extended his hand to signal.
Inside the Rolls-Royce, the driver and Xiang Que were in the front, and Situ Shengyun and Fourth Uncle were behind. The motorcade left the Four Seasons Hotel and headed out of Nanjing city on the expressway and headed straight for Shanghai.
Xiang Que leaned against the car window and looked out of the window boredly. The two people behind him didn't talk to each other the whole time. They both closed their eyes and rested.
The convoy rested at the service area on the expressway for 20 minutes before setting off again. There was still less than two hours left to reach the halfway point of Shanghai.
"Pull over." Less than half an hour after the car drove out of the service area, Xiang Que suddenly said something in the passenger seat.
"Huh?" The two people behind him opened their eyes at the same time and looked at him in confusion.
Xiang Que turned to look at the driver and said: "Stop, pull over."
The driver looked at Xiang Que in shock, then looked at the two people behind him in the rearview mirror, and said: "This is a highway, you can't stop casually."
"Go to the parking lot and pick it up, hurry up," Xiang Que urged impatiently.
