Zhao Yun's home and Yun Yi's luxurious villa were separated by a courtyard.
It only took a little over a minute to walk.
As they passed the courtyard in the middle, Yun Yi suddenly sniffed his nose:
"Where are we? Why is there a faint smell of incense?"
"Divine Lord, this is our ancestral hall."
Zhao Yun suddenly became nervous, "What's wrong?"
He was afraid that Yun Yi would say he didn't like it.
He had to choose between the Divine Lord and his ancestors.
If that was really the case.
He could only make a decision that would displease his ancestors.
He would have to ask the ancestors to move again!
After all, they had already moved once, moving again shouldn't upset the ancestors too much…
Zhao Yun took a deep breath and silently said to himself.
If the ancestors were to blame him, then he would go find his father.
He was the real culprit!
In front of the ancestors, it's better to sacrifice a friend than oneself.
The last time they moved the ancestral hall was actually just yesterday.
The residence they gave to Yun Yi was the original Zhao family ancestral hall.
It was also the most luxurious courtyard in Zhaojiazhuang.
Of course, it wasn't good to directly give them the ancestral hall.
So they had meticulously cleaned it inside and out several times, making sure it was spotless before daring to give it to Yun Yi.
But they never imagined.
As soon as Yun Yi received it, he demolished the entire courtyard.
And then he transformed it into a brand new luxurious villa.
Yun Yi shook his head:
"It's nothing, I was just asking."
If it were a pigeon-hole style residence like in the modern world.
Having an ancestral hall next door that burns incense every day, then he definitely wouldn't like it.
Because the space is small.
The smell wouldn't be able to dissipate.
But here, it doesn't matter.
The two courtyards are separated by almost a hundred meters.
Even if the incense from the ancestral hall wafts over, the scent is almost too faint to smell.
However, this reminded Yun Yi of something else.
He would have to collect more tree seeds next time he goes out to "pluck" trees and bring them back.
He could plant them around the villa.
Otherwise, in the vast courtyard, aside from the villa in the center, there is only a pond and a pavilion.
It's a bit too monotonous.
And the trees in MC grow very quickly.
If he plants more.
He can have a constant supply of wood without leaving home.
This is much more convenient than traveling all the way to the Taihang Mountains to "pluck" trees.
As for why he didn't "pluck" trees near Zhaojiazhuang.
It's not that he doesn't want to.
A small amount is fine.
But a large amount… it's a dream.
Due to years of drought, the trees on the Jizhou Plain have either died directly or have been stripped of their bark for food by the famine-stricken people.
The remaining ones can be counted on one hand.
Only the Taihang Mountains, which belong to a primitive forest area, have abundant groundwater replenishment.
The trees are able to survive the drought for so long.
But even so.
The Taihang Mountains are no longer as verdant as they once were, dead trees can be seen everywhere.
Passing by the new Zhao ancestral hall.
The two saw another courtyard.
The door was slightly ajar.
Compared to the courtyard given to Yun Yi and the new ancestral hall, this courtyard was a bit too simple.
It was all single-story bungalows.
It was simple in style and plain in decoration.
It only covered an area of over two hundred square meters.
It wasn't a "three-section courtyard", it only had one section.
You could see the entire courtyard after passing through the first gate.
Compared to the "three-section courtyard" of over a thousand square meters at the new ancestral hall next door and the "four-section courtyard" of over two thousand five hundred square meters given to Yun Yi.
It seemed a bit… mini.
But small as a sparrow, it has all the organs.
The functions a residence should have are all complete.
Entering the courtyard.
Passing through the entrance.
At a glance, you could see three people in the main hall eating breakfast.
Two men and one woman.
Yun Yi only recognized one.
That was Zhao Lang, who had gone hunting in the Taihang Mountains with Zhao Yun.
He was also Zhao An's own son.
But he was ranked fourth.
However, the three of them weren't sitting around one table to eat, instead, each of them was kneeling at their own small desk.
A separate food system?
Yun Yi was slightly taken aback, but he quickly reacted.
The end of the Eastern Han Dynasty did seem to be a separate food system.
He had seen the older version of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" which was quite meticulous.
The eating scenes in it were each at their own separate desks, eating their own food.
The modern combined food system.
The form where everyone gathers at one table to eat.
Didn't gradually take shape until after the Tang Dynasty.
But kneeling for a long time… wouldn't your knees get uncomfortable?
This kneeling position, in the modern world, only the Japanese have passed it down.
Once, Yun Yi went to eat Japanese food.
He tried kneeling.
As a result, his legs went numb after sitting for a short while.
In the end, he simply switched to a cross-legged sitting position.
That was more comfortable.
At the time, he felt that kneeling was quite… anti-human.
The three people eating breakfast looked up and noticed Zhao Yun and Yun Yi walking into the courtyard.
They quickly put down their bowls and chopsticks.
They stood up and stepped forward, bowing to Yun Yi from afar.
"Divine Lord."
After shouting, they also separately called out to Zhao Yun.
"Second Brother." "Second Brother." "Second Brother."
It seemed that these three were Zhao Yun's own siblings.
It was also during their time standing up to bow that Yun Yi noticed that they actually had a small stool under their buttocks.
A palm high, the seat was curved.
It was a perfect fit for the shape of their butts.
Oh, so it turns out that ancient people had stools when they knelt down.
No wonder I felt that the Japanese kneeling was anti-human.
It turns out that the Japanese didn't learn their skills properly.
How come they only learned to kneel and didn't learn the stool too?
Yun Yi suddenly thought of a possibility.
Unless they went out to work, ancient people generally wore wide robes.
The robe would happen to cover the small stool under their buttocks when kneeling.
Did the Japanese only see kneeling when eating and didn't see the small stool under the robe?
And then they rushed back to show off?
Good, good, good.
It can only be said that it's indeed the Japanese…
But even with the small stool, Yun Yi still doesn't like kneeling.
High platform chairs are so comfortable to sit in.
If you add a backrest and make it a "Ge You" lying down position, it's simply a pleasure.
It seems like I need to take out the chair some time.
Let the sitting posture reform start with me.
Moreover, he doesn't need to actively promote it.
It follows the example of the superior.
He just needs to take out the high platform chair and sit on it a few times.
Others will follow suit.
Believe it or not, in a short time, everyone will gradually discover the wonderful benefits of high platform chairs.
And then spread it.
