Chapter 806: Windy Courtyard
Yunmiao Village.

In the restaurant, Xie Xiaochun was making coffee and chatting with the employee Nana.

"Room No. 5 in the courtyard has been rented out less than a month ago. Nana, you will have new neighbors soon."

Xie Xiaochun is not very old, only 28 years old this year. She is a college graduate who divorced her scumbag ex-husband. She raises her daughter who goes to kindergarten alone and follows her powerful relative Xie Zhiyao to lead the villagers to make money.

Now many industries in the village were developed by Xie Zhiyao. She is responsible for helping Xie Zhiyao manage them and also holds a certain share, so she is busy almost every day. She is the one who runs Youfeng Courtyard.

However, she did not feel it was hard, instead she was full of energy. She was just a carefree person, or a little straightforward. Sometimes, even when facing Xie Zhiyao, she would confront him without any hesitation.

Nana, who was talking to her, was originally named Lin Na. She was very beautiful, had a good figure, and was both talented and pretty.

She is also a tenant of Youfeng Courtyard. She used to be an online singing host. She has lived here for a long time and now works as a waitress in the restaurant.

Nana was very surprised when she heard what Xie Xiaochun said: "So fast, who is the tenant this time?"

Xie Xiaochun replied: "I can't explain it clearly. The original tenant was a woman, but she was renting it for someone else. The person who came to live here is a man. Judging from his voice, he should be young, and he lives alone!"

"Oh!" Nana responded, but didn't take it to heart.

She has lived here for a while and has experienced several different tenants coming and going. She has long been accustomed to it.

As they were talking, Xie Xiaochun's cell phone suddenly rang. She looked down and smiled:

"Hey, I'm talking about the new tenant and he called me!"

As she was talking, she answered the phone:

"Hello, yes, I'm Xie Xiaochun. Ah, you've arrived at the entrance of Yunmiao Village? Okay, okay, I'll pick you up right away!"

After hanging up the phone, she hurriedly said to Nana:
"The new tenant has arrived. I'm going to pick him up at the entrance of the village. Nana, I'll leave this place to you!"

"No problem, you go and do your work, I'll take care of this." Nana said to Xie Xiaochun with a smile.

Yunmiao Village has not yet developed and there are very few tourists coming here, so the business in the restaurant is very average. It is only busier during holidays!
After Xie Xiaochun gave Nana instructions, he got on his bicycle and rode towards the village entrance.

Near the entrance of Yunmiao Village, I walked towards the village with my luggage and enjoyed the scenery along the way.

Yunmiao Village is a rural area after all. It doesn’t have the tall buildings like in the city. There are only many rice fields on the roadside, which looks full of vitality.

There were also many villagers wearing local costumes passing by, and they all looked at Lin Hao curiously, who looked out of place here.

Lin Hao didn't care about other people's eyes. He opened a bottle of iced mineral water and drank half of it in one gulp.

He flew to Yunnan Province and then took a bus. Originally, Lin Hao wanted to buy a car, but he felt it was unnecessary. Although the countryside was nice, it was not a place for him and Xu Hongdou to stay for a long time.

"Ding-a-ling, jingle-a-ling!"

Suddenly, a clear and loud bicycle bell rang. Lin Hao looked up and saw a woman wearing a light blue jacket, black jeans and a white T-shirt riding a bicycle towards him.

"Hello, are you Mr. Lin Haolin?"

Lin Hao was the only outsider here, and he was pulling a suitcase, so Xie Xiaochun knew that this was her tenant, so she asked Lin Hao directly.

Lin Hao nodded and said, "I am Lin Hao, and you should be Ms. Xie Xiaochun, right?"

Xie Xiaochun extended his hand to Lin Hao and said, "Hello, I am Xie Xiaochun, welcome to Yunmiao Village!"

While shaking hands, she was also looking at Lin Hao. When she saw Lin Hao clearly, her eyes were full of surprise.

Lin Hao's handsome appearance, tall stature, slender figure, and mature and steady temperament are so attractive that he looks like the male protagonist from an idol drama.

Although surprised by Lin Hao's outstanding figure and appearance, Xie Xiaochun still managed to restrain himself and did not lose his composure.

"Hello, Ms. Xie, nice to meet you." Lin Hao said politely.

Xie Xiaochun laughed and said, "No need to be so polite, just call me Xiaochun. Put your luggage on my bicycle and I'll take you back to Youfeng Courtyard!"

After all, she had attended college outside. Although Lin Hao was dressed quite casually, his unique mental state made him feel like a successful person with a successful career.

So she was a little curious as to why Lin Hao came to stay temporarily in Youfeng Courtyard.

"The scenery along the way is great, it's quite suitable for collecting folk songs!"

Hearing Lin Hao's sigh, Xie Xiaochun's heart moved, and then asked curiously: "Mr. Lin is here to collect folk songs, are you a painter?"

"I can't say I'm a painter, but it's true that I like painting!" Lin Hao said modestly.

"Oh, I see. Let me tell you, you have definitely come to the right place. Although this is just a village, this village is not ordinary."

"There is not only a horse farm, but also Erhai Lake nearby. There are many traditional crafts and many buildings are also historic. In short, you will not be disappointed if you stay here for a few months!"

Lin Hao observed as he walked. Many of the buildings in Yunmiao Village were old, and the roads in the village were not wide.

The houses are closely connected to each other. Some courtyards are even separated by a wall, so that the houses seem to be back to back.

Most of the ground in the village is paved with stone slabs and pebbles. Occasionally, you can see people setting up small stalls on both sides of the road. Smoke can be seen coming out of the chimneys above many houses, and you can tell at a glance that the stoves are burning.

It is true that there is no noise like in the city here, and it is more peaceful, but this is also because there are so few people.

Along the way, most of the villagers I saw were middle-aged and elderly people and children, and there were very few young and middle-aged people. This is also the real situation in many rural areas across the country.

In this money-oriented society, even if you work harder in the countryside, you can't earn as much as you can by working outside for two months.

So young people basically don’t want to stay in the village, and most of them want to go out and try their luck.

Once the young people leave the village, the population base of the village, which was not large to begin with, naturally becomes even smaller, leaving behind a large number of left-behind children and elderly people.

However, this is an inevitable trend of social development, and no one can change it. Not to mention in modern times, even in ancient times, young people all wanted to go to big cities to make a living rather than stay in a small village all their lives.

"We're okay here!"

Xie Xiaochun smiled and greeted the villagers passing by, then asked Lin Hao.

As soon as she saw Lin Hao's demeanor, she felt that Lin Hao was extraordinary. When she heard that Lin Hao was also a painter, a typical rich and free man, she spoke more enthusiastically. Of course, it was also because Lin Hao's own charm was more attractive.

Just like men like beautiful women, women will also feel favorable toward charming and handsome men, or look at them differently, or even be unable to walk when they see them.

Lin Hao smiled and responded, "That's true. I have a feeling that this trip to Yunmiao Village will definitely be a very interesting experience!" Hearing this, Xie Xiaochun's liking for Lin Hao increased even more. She could see that Lin Hao was very frank and was not intentionally flattering.

Afterwards, the two chatted and came to a yard. Lin Hao said with some emotion:

"Is this the Fengyuan Courtyard?"

Looking at the newly renovated courtyard in front of me, it still seems to be quite old, and combined with the beautiful mountains, waters and scenery here, it seems to complement each other.

Of course, this is only limited to those who have no worries about food and drink, are rich and have free time to spend a vacation here and experience farm life. If they live here for a long time, I am afraid most people will not be used to it.

"Yes, it's beautiful, isn't it!" Xie Xiaochun then took Lin Hao into the yard and continued to introduce:

"We have a total of six rooms here. Currently, only Room 5 and Room 6 are vacant. The other rooms are full!"

When they got to the second floor, Xie Xiaochun pointed to a room and said, "This is the room number five you reserved!"

Lin Hao was listening to Xie Xiaochun introducing Youfeng Courtyard, and the next moment he saw a middle-aged man sitting on a cushion on the platform and meditating.

Xie Xiaochun noticed Lin Hao's gaze, so he introduced:
"That person is also a tenant of the courtyard. He lives in room 2. You don't have to pay attention to him. He's a bit strange. Let me take you to the room first!"

"it is good!"

Of course Lin Hao knew who the middle-aged man sitting there in meditation was. He was one of the important supporting characters in the play, Ma Ye Ma Qiushan, a startup boss who was once very successful but eventually went bankrupt.

After entering the room, Xie Xiaochun continued:

"This is Room 5. Next to you is Room 6. That room has also been booked, but the tenant hasn't arrived yet!"

Xie Xiaochun skillfully opened the door of room number five and moved aside to let Lin Hao see what was going on inside the room.

"The room isn't very big, but it's definitely big enough for you to live in. We cleaned it before you came, so it's very clean. But it's empty now, so if you need anything, you'll have to get it yourself!"

Lin Hao put the suitcase into the room, looked it over and felt it was OK. The room was about 30 square meters, much larger than an average hotel room.

There are definitely some bad things, and they are quite a few, but Lin Hao can solve them, so he didn't mention them.

"Very good, very good!"

"As long as you are satisfied, Mr. Lin, you can put your things here first. I will take you downstairs and introduce you to our courtyard!"

Xie Xiaochun took Lin Hao downstairs again and began to introduce the basic situation of the courtyard.

"This is the restaurant in our courtyard. There is a small rest area behind the restaurant. Over there is our public kitchen. All the electrical appliances and kitchen utensils in it can be used. They are all shared!"

"That's a tea room over there. Behind the tea room is a utility room and a tool room~~~!"

"I'm in charge of this courtyard. If you need any help when I'm not here, you can find Nana who lives over there. She's a tenant and an employee of the inn. I'll introduce you to each other later!"

"it is good!"

Xie Xiaochun looked at the time and said:

"Mr. Lin, I have introduced everything that needs to be introduced. If you have any questions, we can talk to you later. If you don't have any questions, I am busy at the restaurant, so I will leave first!"

Lin Hao immediately said: "It's okay, go and do your work, don't worry about me!"

Just as he reached the door, Xie Xiaochun seemed to have thought of something, so he turned around and told Lin Hao:
"By the way, the temperature difference here is quite large at night, so it's best to buy some daily necessities!"

Lin Hao smiled and had a good impression of Xie Xiaochun, so he thanked him:

"Thank you for your concern. I have already contacted the merchant and it should be delivered soon!"

Xie Xiaochun nodded and said, "Okay, then you can ask someone to deliver the luggage later. If you are too busy, you can call me and I will help you."

"No, I don't have anything, just some daily necessities. No need to trouble you anymore, just go and do your work."

"Then I'll leave first. Call me if you need anything!"

"it is good."

After Xie Xiaochun left, Lin Hao did not return to the room, but stood outside, looking at Room 6 next to Room 5. According to Lin Hao's plan, he knew that Xu Hongdou would come here soon.

He looked at Ma Qiushan who was meditating again and smiled. What Ma Qiushan was doing was not meditation, but escape.

Going upstairs and returning to the room, Lin Hao used the Traceless Stretching Spell, and then cleaned it automatically with one click, which was simple and convenient.

After a while, the phone rang. It was the bed sheets, quilts and other daily necessities he bought that were delivered by someone arranged by the merchant.

Although Yunmiao Village is relatively remote, as long as you have money, the merchants can deliver it to you no matter how remote it is.

What they bought were some daily necessities, but there were still a lot of miscellaneous items, so the merchant sent three people to deliver all the things to Lin Hao's room before leaving.

During this process, because of the loud noise, Machushan, who was already restless, couldn't help but open his eyes several times to look secretly, and then pretended to be calm and continued to meditate.

After tidying up your room and ventilating it, you can sleep peacefully at night.

After finishing everything, Lin Hao found that there was no one else in the yard except Ma Ye, so he walked around the village on foot.

When Lin Hao returned to the windy courtyard, he saw several people sitting around a small table in the yard.

In addition to Mr. Ma, there was also a young girl with two braids and a girl with a bun sitting next to him.

There was a teapot on the small table, and it seemed that everyone was drinking tea.

As soon as he came in, everyone's eyes fell on him.

"Good evening, my name is Lin Hao, I'm a new tenant, living in room five!"

Ma Qiushan stood up, shook hands with Lin Hao, and said with a smile:

"I know. I heard you when you came today. Then you asked people to move things, which made quite a noise."

Then Master Ma introduced himself: "My last name is Ma, they usually call me Master Ma, or you can call me Old Ma!"

The young girl next to him also stood up and said openly:
"Hello, you can just call me Nana. I heard Xiaochun talk about you today!"
