I really don't want to live with the female president

"Okay, don't be humble if you stay with me, boy." The old master smiled and said: "After breakfast, I will go to the side courtyard."

Xiao Yi's smile froze for a moment, then his eyes lit up, he looked at the old master excitedly and said, "Can I see the old man?"

The old man—Xiao Yi also didn't know his real name.

The old man is a respectful title.

In the entire Taohuawu, there is no one who does not admire the old man, even his grandfather, he has to respectfully call out the old man.

It is said that the old man has an extraordinary background, no matter what the matter is, as long as the old man says a word, everything will be fine.

Even if he killed Daxia's high-level officials, the old gentleman could also save his life.

Of course, that's what it said, but if something like that happened, the old man wouldn't come forward to protect him.

He had some impressions of the old man, but it was all scattered memories of how old he was when he was a child, and what happened later was told to him by the old beast.

Even people like the old bastard talk about the old man with a bit of respect.

The old master smiled and nodded: "You take Chu Mo with you."

Xiao Yi responded excitedly, and watched the master leave.

Not everyone can see the old gentleman. It is said that no more than ten people in Taohuawu have seen him.

The juniors in Taohuawu, only very, very outstanding, can meet the old gentleman and listen to the old gentleman's teaching.

Last time he was injured and stayed in Taohuawu for a while, but he couldn't see him either.

In other words, the old gentleman did not see him.

I just don't know, what will the old man say to him when he sees the old man this time, and let him take Shen Chumo with him, is it just that he just wants to meet the Xiao family's daughter-in-law?Or does the old man have something to say to the two of them?

He went back to the attic excitedly, only to find that Shen Chumo had finished packing and was in the living room downstairs.

And when Shen Chumo heard Xiao Yi talk about the old man, he immediately felt very curious.

"From what you say, this old gentleman seems to be an expert." Shen Chumo said.

Someone came to deliver breakfast, and after Xiao Yi and Shen Chumo finished eating, they went to the courtyard together.

Today is the New Year's Eve, Taohuawu is very lively, people have already set off firecrackers early in the morning, children wearing cotton-padded jackets, their faces flushed from the cold, are running around excitedly with fireworks in their hands.

There is no hustle and bustle of the city, what the ears can hear, the sound of people talking, the sound of children laughing and playing, and the sound of dogs barking and rooster crowing.

"Winter in Taohuawu is also beautiful." Shen Chumo was wearing a long black down jacket down to the calf, and a thick gray coffee scarf, his nose was red from the cold.

She kept exhaling hot air while looking at the snow-covered Taohuawu.

Quiet, peaceful, like a seclusion in the world.

Seeing the dog rolling in the snow covered in white icicles, Shen Chumo's beautiful eyebrows could not help but curl up.

Xiao Yi and Shen Chumo were walking on the avenue in the middle of Taohuawu, and people kept laughing and asking them.

"Children here, what should I do with my studies?" Shen Chumo suddenly thought of a question, looked at Xiao Yi and asked curiously.

"There is a small school in Taohuawu, and there are two teachers in it." Xiao Yi said.

The school in Taohuawu is very good.

Not only is it recognized here, but after graduation, you will also get a Taohuawu graduation certificate, and going out with a Taohuawu graduation certificate is an honor in itself.

Shen Chumo nodded clearly, and continued to look around curiously.

The location of the side courtyard is in the deepest part of Taohuawu.

There is a short hill here, and there is a small courtyard under the short hill. The black wooden door is closed tightly, and there is no one around.

This is the old man's yard.

But usually no one would come here, and Taohuawu also forbids people to come here casually.

Xiao Yi and Shen Chumo walked to the door together and knocked on the knocker.

"Come in." A flat voice came from inside, not loud, coming from a room in the courtyard.

Xiao Yi pushed the door open.

The yard is paved with white jade slabs, spotless, and the snow has been swept away.

On one side of the yard, there are several mahogany trees with snow falling on them.

There is a wooden house in the courtyard.

Xiao Yi and Shen Chumo walked to the door, and after hearing the people inside let them in, Xiao Yi pushed the door open and entered.

The inside of the wooden house is very warm. As soon as you enter, you can see a red-burning stove with a kettle on it. The water is obviously about to boil, and it is already steaming.

The overall decoration of the house has a somewhat ancient feel.

An old man is sitting on a wooden couch.

The old man couldn't tell his age, he seemed to be very old, but judging from his appearance, he looked like he was in his seventies.

He was wearing a loose blue robe and was reading a book in his hand.

At first glance, it feels a bit like a teacher.

Shen He is like a pool of still water.

"Xiao Yi has met the old man." Xiao Yi stepped forward and said respectfully.

Shen Chumo also yelled.

"After so many years, you are finally able to come back." The old gentleman put the book upside down on the table, and looked at Xiao Yi with a smile on his face.

"If I remember correctly, you should have gone out at the age of seven?"

Xiao Yi didn't laugh like before, but nodded with a straight face: "One month to seven years old."

"Seven years old... It's hard for you. A child who is less than seven years old has been sent abroad without anyone to protect him. After so many years, it must be very uncomfortable?" The old man looked at Xiao Xiao. Yat.

"It's okay." Xiao Yi smiled: "I'm used to it."

The old gentleman smiled slightly, and then looked at Shen Chumo: "You two are in basically the same situation. Your parents left and lived alone. Now you two can come together—that's what I want to see."

"Chumo, what's wrong with your body all these years?"

Shen Chumo said softly: "Old sir, no."

"I remember that when you were born, your heart was weak and your health was not very good," said the old man.

Shen Chumo was surprised: "The old man knows?"

She was in poor health when she was a child, but when she grew up, her grandfather would often talk about it, saying that when she was a child, she was hanging on her breath, and then she gradually got better.

"You were born in Taohuawu. Strictly speaking, you are half of Taohuawu." The old man said with a smile, "I went to see you when you were born."

Hearing this, Shen Chumo was even more surprised, her beautiful eyes lost her mind: "I was born here...?"

She subconsciously looked at Xiao Yi.

In other words, she and Xiao Yi were in Taohuawu together when they were young?

For a moment, Shen Chumo felt that all this was predestined.

At the same time, she felt that there was no distance between her and Xiao Yi.

The old gentleman nodded and said with a smile: "The name Chumo was also given to you by me, an old man at that time."
