"It's been hard on Lord Fu. " Xiao ran said.
The courtyard was not big, but the layout was very particular.
The flowers and grass were green, and the narrow path paved with green stones extended all the way to the backyard.
There was a man-made lake here, surrounded by a rock garden, and a Pavilion where one could rest.
An old man in a blue robe was sitting on a stone bench. There was a chessboard in front of him, and he was playing chess alone.
"Old master, young master Xiao is here." Uncle Zhong walked over and said in a low voice.
"Yes." Fu Xianhe put down his chess piece.
He looked at Xiao ran and smiled.
He pointed at the stone bench opposite him."Sit."
Uncle Zhong poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of Xiao ran before he left.
"It's not easy to see you. I thought you would reject me as politely as last time. " Fu Xianhe teased.
