    The Tea God Ceremony in Tuanshan mainly consists of three items: honoring the tea king, inviting mountain springs, and watching local operas.

    First, the four major surnames select a family head in advance as the chief priest that year, and lead everyone to pay respect to the "Tea King"; then, under the leadership of the chief priest, everyone will go to the west mountain of the village to drink mountain spring water and express gratitude to the mountain god; and finally everyone  Watch the military Nuo opera at the local theater in our village.

    Because Zijing Zhao vaguely learned about Li Chongyan's real situation last night, Gu Chun didn't know how much he was thinking about at the moment, so he could only talk about these unimportant gossips.

    "I said, you were acting weird just now," Gu Chun noticed that Li Chongyan glanced at him from time to time, his eyes thoughtful, so he simply turned his head to look him in the eye, "If you have anything to say, just say it."

    Oh, it was discovered.

    Li Chongyan avoided her gaze, pursed his lips and touched his nose, and explained in a weak voice with some guilt: "I just suddenly felt as if I had seen you before."

    This statement sounded offensive and frivolous even to him, but the truth was that it was just so awkward.

    When he first met Gu Chun at Pingcheng Jishi Hall a few days ago, although he trusted her because of her harmless words and deeds, he did not feel the same sense of deja vu as he did now.  But just now she was standing at the door, wearing a red dress and a fierce and flamboyant look. Her appearance was only slightly different from the previous few days, but she suddenly felt inexplicably familiar to him.

    Gu Chun rolled his eyes at him indifferently and chuckled.

    "It's useless. The last storybook I wrote was because of this cliche plot. What's wrong with it? Didn't I tell you everything yesterday? I won't ignore you."  Bully Xiao Xuanfeng, no matter what, I have to wait until Si Fengchi comes to settle the account tomorrow and hand over the money before the money and goods are settled.

    What she said made Li Chongyan unable to accept it, because after thinking about it, he still had no clue. He didn't know if this sudden sense of familiarity was really due to something he had forgotten, or if it was just he was attracted by sex.  .

    Noticing the awkward hesitation on his face, Gu Chun immediately changed the subject in a friendly manner: "By the way, where are Sui Jun and Yan Lin? Why didn't they follow you?"

    "I told them to make their own arrangements, and there is no need to follow." Seeing that she was not angry at the strange explanation he had given earlier, Li Chongyan felt a little more comfortable when he answered, "I see that Si Fengchi and Wei Zhao don't seem to have any entourage.  Habits, this is the rule if you want to come here.¡±

    He thought about it last night. According to Gu Chun, today is a grand gathering in Tuanshan. It is in full view of everyone. He doesn¡¯t want to attract too much attention.

    Gu Chun nodded, feeling a little relieved for him.  He is much more transparent than she thought. With this calmness of planning and then acting, maybe he will be able to integrate into Tuanshan's life soon. In this case, two years won't be too difficult.

    Gu Chun smiled from time to time and nodded to each other with familiar people in the crowd, and led Li Chongyan all the way to the Tea King Temple.

    The sky was already bright at this time, and there were crowds of people in front of the Tea King Temple, but it was not noisy. The greetings, greetings or conversations between acquaintances were restrained and orderly. This scene made Li Chongyan feel inexplicably cordial.

    Although Si Fengchi has been so busy these days, he obviously still ordered someone to take care of Li Chongyan. The pale green spring shirt with a large collar he is wearing today is a common style of men's clothing in Tuanshan. At this time, standing in the lively crowd, he seems to be surprised.  Ben is one of them.

    "Thanks to Sister Fengchi's thoughtfulness, otherwise if you were still wearing Shahu Zen clothes today, I'm afraid these guys wouldn't have the heart to worship the God of Tea."

    Hearing Gu Chun's whisper, Li Chongyan glanced at her curiously: "Why? Tuanshan doesn't welcome the Southern Army?"

    "If they know that you are from the Southern Army," Gu Chun chuckled, his clear eyes wandering around, and he said slowly, "you will immediately see how majestic the reputation of the Southern Army is."

    ??The people of Tuanshan are martial in nature and have great respect for the Confederate Army. If a man wearing Confederate Army cloth armor suddenly appeared today, I'm afraid there would be a crowd around him in no time. The tea ceremony would be changed to worshiping the God of War on the spot.

    Li Chongyan obviously didn't believe it, and chuckled softly: "Little Xuanfeng, you lied again. When we were in Pingcheng, your senior brother didn't recognize that I was wearing Shahu Zen, and neither did you."

    "I recognized it later, otherwise why do you think I would help you?" Gu Chun stood on tiptoe and looked forward, then turned back and whispered, "Our Ye family is facing Nan because of our medical practice.  The military is not that fanatical.¡±

    So, in the entire Tuanshan Mountain, only the Ye family of our village practices medicine, and the rest are all martial arts?

    For a moment, another clue seemed to flash through Li Chongyan's mind, but was interrupted by Jiang Yao, who was squeezing through the crowd.

    Jiang Yao waved her hand to say hello to Li Chongyan, and immediately approached Gu Chun and exclaimed in a low and exaggerated voice: "This ordinary personI didn't even notice Why do you look more and more like your master!  "

    Well?

    Li Chongyan responded and turned to look at Gu Chun.

    Gu Chun couldn't help but raise his hand and slap Jiang Yao on the forehead, lowering his voice and gritting his teeth: "Are you stupid? Have you never heard of your nephew, Uncle Xiao?!"

    "Oh, yes, the head of the Ye family is your uncle!" Jiang Yao clicked her tongue and shook her head in realization, "It's all my fault that you always call him master, which makes me often forget that he is your uncle."

    Because this year¡¯s officiant was Jiang Yao¡¯s father, Jiang Yao chatted with Gu Chun for a few words and then went back to the altar to help.

    When Jiang Yao walked away, Li Chongyan asked softly: "Why do you call uncle master?"

    "Because, I can't be different from others." Gu Chun answered with a squinted smile.

    ?????????????????????????? For some reason, the corners of her lips are clearly curved at this moment, but Li Chongyan can only think of four words¡ª¡ª

    Force a smile.

    ****

    Ten years ago, when nine-year-old Gu Chunchu went to Tuanshan village to join her uncle Ye Xun, the first thing Ye Xun told her was, "You can't be different from others, otherwise I won't be able to keep you."

    Because long before Gu Chun arrived in Tuanshan, Ye Xun had officially adopted Ye Shenghuai and Ye Xingluo.  In other words, according to the original plan, the next head of the Ye family only had to choose between Ye Shenghuai and Ye Xingluo.

    But out of nowhere, Gu Chun, who was closer to the Ye family by blood, suddenly put Ye Shenghuai and Ye Xingluo into a very embarrassing situation.

    That year, Gu Chun suffered a huge change in his family. He had seen the warmth and warmth of people on his way to Tuanshan. Although he was young, he could vaguely understand Ye Xun's difficulties.

    "A niece who suddenly came to him nine years later, and an adopted son who has been raised under his knees since childhood, if he really has to choose based on his heart, Ye Xun should protect his children.

    But after all, there are many Ye clan members under the head of the Ye family. At that time, Ye Xun was not yet completely sure that he could overcome the public opinion. He was afraid that one day someone from the clan would bring up Gu Chunlai to fight against Ye Shenghuai or Ye Xingluo. Then he would definitely  It caused unnecessary internal friction in Ye's family, and the consequences would be endless.

    So to be sure, Gu Chun must try to obscure the marks of Ye's blood relatives, otherwise Ye Xun would not dare to let her gain a foothold in Tuanshan.

    At that time, Gu Chun had nowhere to go, and the Ye family in Tuanshan was her last hope.  In order to stay smoothly, she immediately performed the apprenticeship ceremony, and from then on, like all the disciples of Jishi Hall, she was only called Master Ye Xun.

    Over the years, people often forget that Gu Chun of the Ye family was originally the niece of the head of the Ye family.

    The reason why Ye Xingluo was stunned at Gu Chun's face after putting on makeup before was actually for no other reason than that Ye Xun had a boyish-female appearance and a rather gorgeous appearance, and Gu Chun's appearance was somewhat similar to Ye Xun's.  After putting on makeup, the blood relationship that had been deliberately obscured on weekdays suddenly became clear as if the clouds were clearing.

    Although Ye Xingluo's "Don't stand next to me today" was a casual joke, Gu Chun immediately brushed it off as a joke, but it also made her suddenly alert. In such a grand occasion as today, she must not be with Ye Shenghuai.  , Ye Xingluo stand side by side, it is necessary to avoid causing unnecessary thoughts of the Ye clan members.

    After all, her relationship with Ye Shenghuai and Ye Xingluo in the past ten years is by no means fake. Moreover, the most important thing is that internal strife is a consequences that none of the four major surnames in Tuanshan can bear.

    "You" Seeing her lonely look, Li Chongyan couldn't help but whispered with concern, "Are you worried?"

    Gu Chun came back to his senses, waved his hand and smiled gratefully at him: "It's nothing. It's just that for some reasons, I can't call him uncle openly. Occasionally I feel a little disappointed and embarrassed. It's okay."

    Gu Chun has not thought about these things for a long time, but today he was suddenly reminded of the secret in his heart, and he felt a little sad.  However, when she raised the back of her hand to her lips and yawned, these lingering worries immediately disappeared.

    With the head of the Jiang family officiating, everyone finished the ceremony to honor the God of Tea, and then went to Xishan to "invite the mountain spring".

    On the way, Jiang Yao came over again mysteriously: "Chun'er, I just heard that someone in the Eleventh Village is going to 'call mountain' to some girl in our village today!"

    Gu Chun became excited when he heard it, and his eyebrows lit up: "I have never heard the complete "Shouting Mountain" in so many years! Go and find out where to shout!"

    "I'm not shouting to you, why are you jumping?" Jiang Yao hurriedly pressed her shoulders and motioned her to keep her voice down, "I'll go explore again, and you can look at me and follow me."

    Nodding fiercely to see Jiang Yao off, Gu Chuncai suddenly thought of Li Chongyan beside him.

    "Uh, are youare you interested in going and taking a look?" Although she was asking, her eyes were almost pleading.  After all, she couldn't leave him and go play alone.

    Li Chongyan thought about it and saw that she really wanted to go, so he smiled indifferently, nodded, and asked casually: "What does 'Calling Mountain' mean?"

    "Call the mountain to ask for a bride," Gu Chun smiled like a cat, "It's still the kind of asking for a bride."

    Li Chongyan held his forehead while walking, and couldn't help but murmur in his heart, the life of this mountain man is too colorful, why do you have to shout and beg to get married?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Thinking about it, seeing that she really wanted to go, he smiled nonchalantly, nodded, and asked casually: "What does 'Calling Mountain' mean?"
