Chapter 384: Eccentric Uncle Janitor

This uncle is sitting on so many valuable things, obviously he can make a fortune as long as he gets a random set and sells it. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

But this man would rather stay here and take care of the things in this house without complaining or regretting.

Why is that?

Huo Sining was puzzled, was it really just because her father had the grace of knowing her uncle and helped him when he was in trouble, so he wanted to repay the favor so simply?

Huo Sining looked at several bedrooms, in addition to looking at the antique furniture, but also looked at the furnishings and uses of the house.

Soon she had a general idea of the house.

This is indeed a complete quadrangle, the whole house is composed of three courtyards, along the north-south axis are the inverted seat room, the hanging flower door, the main hall, the main room and the back cover room.

There are east and west wings in each courtyard, there are ear rooms on both sides of the main hall room, and the whole courtyard is connected by a verandah through the mountains.

The size of the house is large, and both the design style of the house and the degree of preservation are amazing, but there is one thing that makes Huo Sining feel very strange.

That is, she looked through the main room and the side rooms, and found no traces of inhabitation in these rooms.

The old furniture is furnishings, there is no sign of anyone using it, and the beds are even more empty, and the bedding and pillows are completely empty.

This made Huo Sining wonder very much, doesn't this uncle live here and is responsible for taking care of the house, there are no people living in the main house and backyard, so where does this uncle live?

Xu saw Huo Sining's thoughts, and Huang Hanyun said softly: "Uncle Tong, he lives in the backyard, and the northernmost room in that row of inverted seats is the one in the north. ”

Huo Sining was surprised when he heard this, and subconsciously looked towards Uncle Tong.

No wonder Huo Sining felt strange, although the courtyard house looks exquisite and beautiful, but there is a shortcoming, that is, because of the sunshine, only the lighting of the houses on all sides facing north is the best.

Therefore, the north house of the courtyard house is the main house, which is used for the owner of the house to live;

The east and west sides are wings, the population of the big family is large, and the wings are for the young lady's family to live;

The south house, on the other hand, is not well lit, and some houses even have no windows, and these houses are usually used as an outer living room, a bookkeeper, a gatehouse, or a servant's residence.

In modern times, it is basically used as a utility room, and it is not good for pets to live, and it will definitely not be for people to live.

Therefore, when he heard that Uncle Tong lived in the inverted house in the north, Huo Sining felt puzzled and surprised.

It's just a matter of not thinking crookedly about the valuable things in this house, this person is still so upright, he doesn't even live in the main room and the side room, and he has lived in a dimly lit inverted room for more than ten years, isn't it too strange?

"Was this room arranged for my father to live in while he was alive?"

It's a big house, it's well cared for, and it's not without a place to live, so it's too unkind for people to live in such a bad house.

Huo Sining thought that this was her father's arrangement, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.

However, what Huang Hanyun said next made Huo Sining feel even more puzzled.

"I also feel as strange as you about this, and I went to ask my grandfather, but I asked my grandfather many times before telling me, in fact, Uncle Tong came to the door by himself, when your father went to Bashu to perform a mission, we didn't know what the situation was, and then Uncle Tong came to the door with a letter of introduction. ”

"Letter of introduction?" Huo Sining frowned.

Huang Hanyun said: "It was your father's handwritten letter of introduction, which told him what happened to his uncle in the army, and then asked his grandfather to arrange for him to come here and be responsible for guarding the old mansion for him." ”

"Did he find it himself?" and my uncle didn't suspect it?" Huo Sining asked.

Huang Hanyun shook her head: "I doubt it, but your father couldn't be contacted at that time, and the letter was indeed your father's handwriting, grandfather, you should know that he was a soldier who fought in the war, so he naturally sympathized with the soldier when he saw his uncle like this, so he agreed after hesitating for a while." ”

At first, grandpa was not at ease, and arranged for a person to accompany his uncle to guard here, but he didn't expect that no one ordered him at all, and he automatically moved into the inverted house, who persuaded him not to move, grandpa had no choice but to let him live. ”

"The people in our family think that he has other plans, but after he lived in, there was no abnormality at all, he really honestly guarded the house, and some people saw that the things in the house were valuable and wanted to have bad intentions, and they were all driven away by the same uncle. ”

"Seeing him so dedicated, we finally believe that he was really arranged by your father. However, not long after Uncle Tong came here, the news of your father's death came from the army, and the question of Uncle Tong's whereabouts was put on hold. ”

"Uncle Tong doesn't go out much, but this house is really protected. Grandpa didn't want to drive him away, so he let him live in the house all the time, and he lived there for almost twenty years in the blink of an eye. ”

Hearing these words, Huo Sining felt strange in her heart, and always felt that something was wrong, she subconsciously looked at her uncle who was standing in the courtyard outside the house.

Because he lived in the dimly lit inverted seat room all year round, the skin on Uncle Tong's body, including his hands, showed a sickly paleness.

Although Uncle Tong's face was full of scars and he couldn't see his expression, he didn't know why, Huo Sining always felt as if he was secretly looking at himself.

It was a strange instinct, and Huo Sining couldn't tell why, but her Bizhu told it that the man was indeed secretly observing her.

But when Huo Sining turned his head to look over, he didn't find anything, the man was still calm, and his eyes were as smooth as a pool of stagnant water.

"This is supposed to be the room where your grandmother used to live. ”

Several people approached an antique women's boudoir, which was divided into two compartments by a moon arch-shaped floor cover.

The inner room is the bedroom, with a dark brown bed with delicately carved shelves in one corner, and diagonally opposite the bed is a dressing table inlaid with tortoiseshell shells, on which there are faint crystals that reflect the dazzling brilliance in the light.

The outer room is used to write books and paint female workers, and there is a national character type Bogu shelf near the outer wall, and there is a desk near the Bogu shelf, on which there are four treasures of the study, and there is a guqin standing in the corner near the table.

However, these Huo Sining were only swept at a glance, and as soon as she entered the house, she noticed the openwork screen on the east side at a glance, and the screen was erected behind the carved shelf bed, and it was obvious that bypassing the screen was the bathroom.

The reason why Huo Sining set his sights on this screen is because these two silk embroideries are embroidered on this screen. (To be continued.) )
