After hearing this, Gu Jingting shook his head helplessly and smiled clearly, "It's not too late to prepare gifts after getting off the plane, she is not picky."

It turned out that Lin Yike was getting more and more confused when he met his elders. The first impression that the Gu family gave her was that it was difficult to get along with.

After the plane landed, it took more than five hours to arrive at its destination.

It was evening when they set off, and it was already early in the morning when they got off the bus.

The car was parked in front of a narrow alley, and Lin Yike's high heels stepped on the green stone road. The town in the early morning was shrouded in clouds and mist, with a hazy, illusory and real feeling. The winding flowing water, the antique stone arch bridge, the weeping willows by the stream and the wild flowers blooming everywhere, the scenery in front of you is as beautiful as a still painting.

"What is this?" Lin Yike asked.

"Su Town. The ancestral home of the Jiang family is here." Gu Jingting explained, took her hand and walked up the bluestone road.

After stepping through the layers of steps and through the narrow alley, Lin Yike discovered that there was a unique world in the alley. The house that we entered was antique and looked a bit old. However, all the buildings in the house were exquisite, with carved beams and painted columns on the door beams, and even the two stone lions at the door were of good jade seed materials, showing the owner's precious identity.

"This is the ancestral home of the Jiang family." After Gu Jingting said that, he explained: "This ancestral home has a history of more than a hundred years. The Jiang family's ancestral hall is behind the ancestral home. I heard that the ancestors of the Jiang family had issued more than a dozen Jinshi, but the government was corrupt in the late Qing Dynasty and the Jiang family was unwilling to become an official.

The first school in Su Town was built by the Jiang family. Children in the whole town were studying there. It can be said that the scholars in the town are all disciples of the Jiang family, and the Jiang family has a high prestige in the local area.

In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, my grandfather went out from here and went to Tsinghua University to teach. Later, he entered the research institute and published many heavyweight academic works. He was a well-known scholar who was once famous.

Later, the Jiang family left here one after another and moved to City A to settle down. Only every winter, my mother would come back to rest. It is surrounded by mountains and is evergreen in all seasons."

"Su Town is so beautiful, hasn't it developed a tourism industry?" Lin Yike asked in confusion. If it is a tourist destination, wave after wave of tourists every day, it is not suitable for rest.

"This place is remote and has no tourism resources to develop." After Gu Jingting said that, he held her with one hand and stretched out his other hand to hold the door.

Then, two heavy bronze wooden doors embedded a gap, and a chubby round face was poked out.

"Sister Jiang." Gu Jingting greeted him, and then introduced to Lin Yike, "This is Sister Jiang, a distant relative of the family. She has been the ancestral home for the couple in recent years."

"Sister Jiang." Lin Yike called out sweetly, his eyebrows and eyes were very pleasant.

"Jing Ting is back with his wife, come in quickly. I will definitely be happy to know that you are back." The Jiang family smiled and opened the door enthusiastically, asking them to go in.

At this time, Mrs. Gu was listening to records in the hall of the ancestral house, an old phonograph, but the sound quality was pretty good.

Mrs. Gu was a little surprised when she saw Gu Jingting leading Lin Yike into the door, and then smiled gently, "Why don't you say hello in advance? I am so old that I can't stand the surprises of you young people."

Gu Jingting walked up to her with a smile and held her shoulders intimately. "I suddenly miss you, so I brought Xiaoke over to see you."

"Hello, Auntie." Lin Yike stood in front of Mrs. Gu in a regular manner and greeted him with a smile. In fact, Mrs. Gu's grade is enough to be her grandmother, but her seniority cannot be chaotic. Of course, she should call her aunt by Gu Jingting's mother.

Mrs. Gu nodded with a smile. She had seen Lin Yike once and had an impression of this little girl with good education. "Miss Lin just sit there."

Lin Yike sat obediently on the pear blossom wooden seat beside him, not talking too much.

She didn't know Mrs. Gu, and she didn't know her temper and nature. She was prone to say more and more mistakes. It would be better to be silent and leave Mrs. Gu with the impression of being quiet and well-behaved.

Mrs. Gu looked at her quietly, obviously very satisfied. "You haven't had breakfast yet, so you just happened to be with me."

Mrs. Gu slowly stood up from her position, and Lin Yike stood up with great eyesight and obediently supported one of her arms. She was not overly enthusiastic, but her behavior was very appropriate.

Mrs. Gu became more and more satisfied. She patted her hands gently and said as she walked: "Su Town is relatively closed and there is nothing good to eat. The breakfast is prepared with local dishes, so you can try it."

"I heard from Jing Ting that the mountain bamboo shoots in Su Town are very fresh, tender and delicious." Lin Yike said.

"Well, the locals' breakfast is inseparable from mountain bamboo shoots, and Jiang Ya's craftsmanship is even first-class." Mrs. Gu said with a smile.

Jiang Ya is the nickname of Sister Jiang.

"Then I'm lucky." Lin Yike was ridiculous, with curved eyebrows and eyes, like a little greedy cat. Her playful look made her laugh at Mrs. Gu without any surprise.

The restaurant is next to the main hall, and the food has been placed on the table. This historical family is very particular. The bowls, chopsticks, plates and plates are all high-quality bone porcelain, exquisite like works of art.

Lin Yike felt that if you don’t eat such exquisite tableware, you will be full if you don’t eat it.

A breakfast, the atmosphere was very harmonious.

After dinner, Mrs. Gu asked Sister Jiang to take Gu Jingting and Lin Yi to go around.

Sister Jiang led them out and walked down the bluestone road. As she walked, Gu Jingting asked about Mrs. Gu's recent physical condition.

"My cousin has always been in good condition here. She will listen to the records for a while in the morning, then sit in the yard and snatch the sun. She will walk around in the afternoon, occasionally visiting relatives and neighbors, and have three meals a day on time, and go to bed at 9 o'clock in the evening. As long as there is no trouble for the Gu family, my cousin's life will be comfortable."

Sister Jiang mentioned the Gu family and said disdain in her tone. "Our Jiang family has a century-old reputation, and the old man is even a master in the academic world. What is the Gu family? It's just a nouveau riche who can't get into the market. How many bad money do you really treat yourself as a prominent family."

Sister Jiang became more and more angry as she spoke. She held Lin Yike's hand and continued, "Miss Lin, don't look at our small place. Every family is knowledgeable and wise. If a man or woman cheats in marriage, she will be drowned by Tumo Xingzi. The mayor is qualified to drive him out of Su Town. Not as shameless as the Gu family, the illegitimate son is even blatantly brought home. I'm apologized!"

After hearing this, Lin Yike nodded repeatedly to agree. She had the urge to settle down in Su Town.

Sister Jiang led them along the river bank. This winding river surrounded the entire Su Town. The river water was clear and you could even see fish swimming at the bottom of the river.

Along the way, everyone I met would take the initiative to say hello to Sister Jiang, which shows that Sister Jiang did not brag, and the locals did respect the people of the Jiang family very much.

When passing a high-gate courtyard, an old lady called Sister Jiang to dry fish together, and Sister Jiang left them and left.
