As soon as you enter the gate, look up to see a borrowed mountain shadow wall, with blue strokes on the top, green pine and wintersweet patterns on the left and right, and landscape patterns in the middle circular decoration. It looks elegant and stylish.
With Erya on one side and supported by Tanchun on the other, Mrs. Liu turned around the screen door, and within two steps, she came to the Hanging Flower Gate of the Second Courtyard. With the help of the maids, she stepped up a few steps, passed through the vertical flower gate, and appeared in front of her as soon as she entered the spacious and tidy yard. Looking to the left and right, there is a corridor connecting the side rooms and the main room, and in the middle is a cross corridor carved with bluestone, all of which are separated from the left and right with the vertical flower door as the central axis.
Next to the east and west wing rooms, there is another moon gate, connecting the east and west courtyards. To the east is an elegant garden, with pavilions, small bridges, flowing water and rockery, which is quite elegant. In the cross courtyard to the west, it was originally a school hall, but now it is arranged as the residence and study room of their youngest son, Xiao Shitou.
Following the corridor paved with bluestone, we soon came to the main room. There are three main rooms, and three side rooms on the left and right. Surrounded by buildings behind, it is spacious and tidy.
"I'm looking forward to you guys!" Mrs. Fang got the news that she could arrive today, and she has already been busy in Yu Zhai. She has seen almost every house, and she is afraid that something is missing, and she will neglect her in-laws. When she was in Dongshan Village, she was often taken care of by the Yu family. Now that she has come to Beijing, she has to show all her energy to give her goddaughter Zhang Luo Zhang Luo.
Seeing Mrs. Fang, Liu's heart was a little uneasy, and she finally let go. She smiled and went up to meet Mrs. Fang, took Mrs. Fang's hand, and said, "Oh, this journey is like a dream. Knowing that I saw Sister Xia You, this heart just fell into your stomach. Such a beautiful house really belongs to our family?"
"That's right! It's really hard to find a decent house in the middle of Beijing. I asked my family to wander around the middle of the capital for two or three months, but couldn't find a suitable one. When the yard is vacant, How many people are staring at it, fortunately we acted faster! This is also your luck, you can find such a suitable house if you decide to go to Beijing on the spur of the moment!" The Fang family's house is similar to this one, with three entrances and cross-courtyards. However, after all, it is the home of military generals, and the decoration is not as elegant and comfortable as Yu's house.
Mrs. Liu thanked her with a smile: "Thank you, Big Brother Fang and Sister Xia! If Cao'er hadn't said that he bought a house in Beijing, it wouldn't be good to have it empty for the first year, so we wouldn't have come all the way here..."
Mrs. Fang said with a smile: "Sister Liu family, you are thanking the wrong person! Buying the house was done by the king of Yangjun, and he wasted a lot of thought. He was the only one who went out in person to buy the house at such an affordable price. The house has been taken down! Oops, it’s already this hour. Are you tired after driving for a few days? Let’s clean up briefly and eat some food. Let’s go to bed early today. You take the wind and wash away the dust."
Mrs. Fang has a straightforward temperament. When she lived in Dongshan Village for a long time, she talked to Mrs. Liu without any obstacles and was very down-to-earth.
Linglong took the maids of the house and put the luggage brought by the Yu family in their respective rooms, and locked some important items in the warehouse. Yu Hang lived in the East Wing. Although the furnishings inside were not gorgeous, they were full of comfort. There are three rooms in the west wing, where sisters Xiaocao lived.
Originally, Yu Hai and his wife wanted Lao Yu to live in the main house. However, he firmly refused. In desperation, Yu Hai and his wife put their father in one of the three rooms in the East Wing, and became neighbors with Yu Hang.
The Yu family rested for a while, and a little girl sent word that it was time for dinner. The dinner was freshly prepared in the kitchen. In order to show their skills in front of the new masters, the cooks tried their best. It is also full of ingredients, not only all kinds of meat are not lacking, but also vegetables and fruits are available. The family had a lively and smooth dinner.
After dinner, Mrs. Fang got up and said goodbye when she saw the tiredness of Yu's family members. King Yang also sat for a while and left. The Yu family, under the service of the servants, took a rest after washing.
Originally, Xiao Lian lived in a separate room, but in a new environment, she couldn't sleep well, so she hugged the pillow and squeezed on the kang with Xiaocao. The winter in the capital is dry and cold. When tidying up the yard, Xiaocao specifically asked to vacate a room for the east and west wing rooms and put it on a kang. As long as I live comfortably, I don't care what others say. There is an earth dragon in the main room, and the interior is as warm as spring, so there is no need to add extravagance to it.
"Little sister, does this house really belong to our family?" Xiao Lian is no longer the ignorant country girl five years ago. When she was doing business at the wharf, she came into contact with merchants who came from south to north, so she naturally knew the situation in the capital very well. The price is amazing, and it is hard to find a room.
When she arrived, she quietly observed from the car window, the people living nearby were either rich or noble, and there were officials and officials on the left and right. With such a location, the house is definitely hard to come by! Although this house is not as big as the one in their country, it is an official house with three entrances and a courtyard, so it must have taken a lot of effort to buy it!
Lying on the warm kang, Yu Xiaocao turned over and lay face to face with Xiao Lian, and said with a smile, "If it's not ours, who else could it be? Shall I show you the deed? Isn't it written in our father's name?"
"Hey! Sometimes, I'm really afraid that the good life now is just a dream. After waking up, I still live in the same yard with my grandma, and the whole family is crowded in a broken house next to the pigsty. The endless work, and my grandma’s harsh yelling and scolding, and not getting enough to eat when I eat...all of these things are bearable, but I’m most afraid that if you get sick, my grandma will say to throw you into the Nanshan Mass Burial Mound!” said Xiao Lian's voice became a little choked up.
Xiaocao's eye sockets were also hot, she patted Xiaolian's shoulder, and comforted softly: "Don't worry, these are all in the past! Good times are yet to come, and everything is looking forward! You, I'm just waiting to be yours." Miss Guan, when the time comes, let the godmother find a good marriage for you, and get married in a good manner... "
"Fuck you! You'll entertain me! How old am I, why don't you talk about getting married!" Xiao Lian's face became hot when she thought of the tall, fit, dark-skinned fisherman. It must be that the kang is too hot, yes, it must be so!
"It's not too young, it will be thirteen in the next year, if it's not a common thing to marry at the age of thirteen and get married at the age of fifteen?" Yu Xiaocao joked.
Xiao Lian gave her a gouged look, and said, "You're still talking about me! We were born in one day, and you're thirteen? Shouldn't it be time to consider your marriage?"
"I still need to consider my marriage? Isn't there the king of Yangjun? It requires status, appearance, ability and ability. How many officials' children in Beijing can be compared with them?" Yu Xiaocao Show off shamelessly.
Xiao Lian opened her eyes wide, with an incredulous expression, and said, "You really recognize the King of Yangjun? He looks cold and has a bad temper, and his background is much higher than ours. .Last time, my younger brother taught me a word called 'Qi Dafei'... Are you two really suitable?"
"If the shoes fit, only the feet know; if the person fits, only the heart knows. For now, he cares about me, and I don't hate him, so let's do it first! It's still a few years before I become an adult. By then, If he doesn't change his original intention and treats me wholeheartedly, what's the point of getting married?" Yu Xiaocao smiled lightly.
Xiao Lian stared at her seriously for a long time before saying: "Little sister, sometimes you give people the impression that you are a wise elder, and sometimes you are as naive as a child. Many contradictory things are concentrated on you. Just like choosing a husband and son-in-law, it is a very embarrassing thing for others, but when you say it from your mouth, everything seems to be taken for granted... "
"What do you mean? Say I'm shameless, shameless, shameless?" Yu Xiaocao reached into her quilt and attacked her armpits.
Xiao Lian screamed, smiled, and repeatedly begged for mercy: "No, I didn't mean to belittle you. I don't know how to express it. Sometimes, I feel that you shouldn't be born in Daming, because your temper is too willful, you can't Should be shackled by the world."
"Wow! I've been reading with my little brother for a few days, and I'm starting to read the text? Not bad, is it surprising that such high-level words can come from your mouth!" Yu Xiaocao stopped attacking her, Start talking about him from left to right.
While the two sisters were talking, a girl's short exclamation came from outside, and Yingchun scolded her: "What is it called? I disturbed the rest of the masters. See if I can spare you? Don't make a fuss, these two are only raised by the masters." The pets in the nursing home look scary, but they are not fierce at all!"
"Yingchun, what's the matter?" Yu Xiaocao poked her head out from under the quilt.
Yingchun came in from the outside with the little roe deer in her arms, and said with a smile: "Miss, it's okay! A little girl was startled by Xiao Hei and the others. Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai were lying at the door of the west wing room, and they were not alone. method. In your opinion, where would it be more suitable for placement?"
Yu Xiaocao thought for a while, and said, "Aren't there three rooms in the west wing? Xiao Lian and I share one room, and the room that is free should be used as a temporary residence for the two first?"
Yingchun rolled her eyes, lowered her head and stroked the well-behaved and cute little roe deer in her arms, and said, "Then let the little one live with the servant..."
"If the people you live with don't think it stinks, you can do whatever you want!" In fact, the little roe deer is very obedient and never defecates anywhere. Just leave a small gap in the door for it at night, and it will find a place to defecate by itself .
"Little one doesn't stink at all!" Yingchun pursed her lips and said with a smile. She shared a room with Tanchun, and Tanchun was very rare just now, so he would definitely welcome it. There is no thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl who does not love cute pets.
Saying that, Wutong came in. Seeing Yingchun holding the little roe deer in high spirits, she said angrily, "I'm on duty with Qing'er today, so hurry up and go back to rest with the little roe deer in your arms. If you can't get up tomorrow, your monthly payment will be doubled!" "
