The inside of the Old Rain Tower is also very old.

For example, the beams, columns and walls that have been removed from the paint.

But it's very clean inside, but not neat.

The gardens passed by may be because Shang Di had not lived here for a long time. There were no flowers blooming in the summer season in the garden, but the weeds grew very well.

If Xiao Shisanniang was here, she would probably feel distressed when she saw those gardens with grass.

If the disciples of Wanxizhai live here... there will be no beautiful flowers in these gardens, they will become, yes, leeks!

Or cabbage.

Even became a rice field.

Li Chenan thought of the female disciples in Wanxizhai and immediately smiled.

The bluestone corridor is very clean, and the trees on both sides of the corridor are growing wildly because they are not pruned, so some branches are exploring the road. Qiuju carefully lifted the branches in front, so that Li Chenan and others can pass through more easily.

"The head of the family said he didn't need to trim it, because... because the head of the family said he would go back to Guangling after a few days, and this old rain building... he said he would leave it to its new owner."

This place is completely incomparable to the orderly order of Taohua Island.

They are two completely different pictures, and Zhongli Ruoshui is of course very confused about this, but Li Chenan doesn't care.

"Brother Shang wants to sell this house?"

"I don't know, but... I'm just a little reluctant."

"I was bought by the head of the family from Yaxing when I was five years old, as well as Chunlan, Xia He and Dongmei... I remember that I lived here for more than a year, and it was my second home in my heart."

The autumn chrysanthemums walked along the way, feeling a little sad all the way.

"At that time, this old rain building was not as good as it is now. Although there were fewer people, it was very warm and beautiful here."

"That spring, the garden was full of spring orchids, and in summer, the lotus pond was full of summer lotus."

"In autumn, the garden is full of autumn chrysanthemums. When winter snow falls...the corners of the walls in the yard are filled with snow-reflecting plums."

"Later, we went to Guangling City and we learned that the head of the family had a bigger and more beautiful home on Taohua Island."

"Of course, we like it very much. Now I think about it, maybe it's because Peach Blossom Island is more open and more refreshing."

"And here...it's a little suppressed after all."

Li Chenan watched from side to side, but didn't feel any depression. He thought that these girls should have grown up and learned about the things between Shang Di and Fan Taohua, understood the meaning of seeing things and thinking about people, and also understood the meaning of the three words "Old Rain Tower", so he felt that depression.

After all, no one wants to live in the shadow of the past.

What's more, the heavy name of Old Yulou, which carries the old love that has been chaotic for decades.

For Shang Di, it is a cage.

He knew it, so he went to Guangling and found the Peach Blossom Island.

But that Peach Blossom Island is another cage that imprisoned him, because of the peach Blossoms of that island!

He jumped from one cage to another larger cage... Was he really leaving Kyoto to escape?

This thought only flashed through Li Chenan's mind, and Qiu Ju took them into the inner courtyard.

"Mr. Li, Miss. You sit for a while. I will invite the head of the family."

Before Qiuju finished speaking, a loud voice rang out on the second floor of the main building:

"Hahahaha, no wonder the magpies on the branch kept shouting, waking my brother out of his dream. It turned out that my brother had arrived!"

Li Chenan looked up and said, "Brother, it's delayed your sleep!"

Shang Di waved his hand, "My brother is in his sixties. In a few days, he will sleep until the end of the coffin!"

"When I come down, Qiuju, go get the tea... Get that can of Shouzhou Huangya!"

...

...

There is a towering big-leaf banyan at the corner of the main courtyard of the Old Rain Tower...

It covers this world like a huge umbrella, giving this world a rare coolness in the heat of summer.

It also gives many cicadas a comfortable home.

The cicadas crowed without stopping.

But neither Shang Di nor Li Chen'an felt irritated by the cicadas.

Shang Di was cooking this pot of new tea very carefully. Li Chenan and Zhongli Ruoshui sat next to the ancient tea table, while Amu and Jianwu stood behind them.

"This tea was given to Liang Manman by a tea merchant from Shuzhou."

Shang Di poured a cup of tea for Li Chen'an and Zhongli Ruoshui, and said, "Last night, she listened to Liang Manman singing songs in Yihonglou, so she gave it to me... She said she was thanking the song "Tian Jingsha".

Shang Di also poured a cup for herself, raised her eyes to Li Chenan, and smiled and said, "Actually, she wanted to thank you, but she didn't know how to thank you... Therefore, when she gave me this can of tea, she said, if you have time in Kyoto, please go to Yihonglou to take a seat."

Li Chenan touched his nose embarrassedly, "Let's go ahead."

"Well, my brother also knows that there must be many important things for you to come to Kyoto."

After saying this, he turned to Zhongli Ruoshui, with a doting look on his face, "Is the old lady okay?"

Zhongli Ruoshui stood up, said respectfully to a blessing, and replied: "Grandma is very good... Grandma still likes the song you wrote for "Tianjingsha"."

"But, my grandma just thinks that song is a little bit sad."

"She also said something at that time."

Shang Di was stunned and asked, "What did she say?"

"She said... she was a warrior after all. She listened to the piano through the window that day. Although she was a man who followed the curtain, she was not a soulmate!"

Shang Di is silent.

Serve tea.

Haven't drunk for a long time.

Li Chenan raised his eyes, and of course he also understood the meaning of Mrs. Fan's words—

There is a sentence in "Tianjingsha":

"Fighting is like no dream, and we met at that time.

Who loves listening to the piano through the window?

The man leaning against the curtain is a soulmate, and in one sentence, it has been so far."

Shang Di blew the somewhat hot tea, took a sip, and put down the teacup.

"That day, I was playing the piano in Guiyanlou because she was next door."

"A word has been said until now... After she heard the song I played, she said something through the window."

"She said... in the spring rain and dusk, the sound of the piano lingers on the beams, and the swallows are brought back. Although she doesn't understand the meaning, she seems to be very powerful, but she is not as good as the sound of swords, guns, swords and halberds."

"The world of Qin and Jian, but the world only discusses swords and does not play the piano!"

Shang Di stroked his long beard and his face was slightly dark. After a moment, he smiled, "She's right!"

"The world only discusses swords and does not play the piano."

"The piano can only help you entertain, but you can't kill people, especially in this troubled world."

"I later realized what this sentence means as I got older..." Shang Di said to Li Chenan, "Just as you said at the South Gate, there is no use for scholars!"

"So I started practicing martial arts again."

"If you don't talk about this past, try this tea. What's wrong with you here in this old rain building today?"

Li Chenan took a sip of tea and did not mention Wen Xiaowan's incident for the time being. Instead, he smiled bitterly: "Actually, it's not all scholars who are useless."

"Brother understands, but how many business tools can there be in the world?"

"How many carnivores are planning to protect their country?"

"How many people are responsible for protecting the world?"

"How many students study for peace for the sake of the eternal period?"

"Just like the old man played the piano before, he was just to make a smile from the beauty. He never thought of reading to carry the truth and playing the piano to cultivate one's own character?"

"There are countless people in the world who deceive themselves, countless people who fool the people, countless people who steal power, and countless people who steal the country...."

"Of course there is soberness in the world, but... the road is as difficult as the sky, and you will know it in the future."

Li Chenan pondered for a moment and nodded, because what Shang Di said was the current situation of Ningguo.

Of course, this mess still has little to do with him in his presence.

He did not turn the tide and support the lofty ideal of the building to collapse. He just wanted to make more money and gradually build his own power, just to be able to have a happy and happy life with Zhongli Ruoshui in the future.

"I'm here today, there's really one thing."

"What's the matter?"

"Wen Xiaowan is missing, I suspect she will be tied to Kyoto by Yulong!"
