Chapter 113: Gathering 3.0
Different from other big family old houses that are just standard courtyard buildings or standard European-style villa buildings, the old houses of the Shu family are slightly more complex in terms of construction style, with both the dignified atmosphere of northern architecture and the unique gentleness and freshness of southern architecture, which has the solemnity and heaviness of ancient architecture and the youthful vitality that modern architecture should have.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, this architectural style seems a bit nondescript, but in the summer I think it can prove the historical heritage of the Shu family, and it can also show the styles and hobbies of different owners in different eras from another aspect. It is this completely different style of architecture that casts the unique charm of the Shu family's old house.
Looking at the entire Shu family's old mansion from the air, it can be seen that the house is divided into three parts. It is absolutely a miracle that these three parts can be self-contained on their own, and that they can be combined with the other two parts to form a larger whole. After entering through the carved gate, you will come to the vestibule of the old house, which on the surface is a modern European-style villa with its own garden and garage, but in fact, the villa has been transformed into a huge banquet hall that can accommodate hundreds of people dancing in it - it is said that this was the idea of the old man's father, and in those days, there were many high-level banquets held here.
Go out from the back door of the banquet hall, it is the private territory of the real Shu family, it is really a place where people do not approach, outsiders do not enter, according to Shu Chang, the atrium and the back court are completely inconsistent with the style of the front garden, the atrium is built in imitation of the royal garden in ancient times, the words pavilions and pavilions, carved beams and paintings, small bridges and flowing water are not too much to use here, the layout of the entire atrium is compact, and there is a small green lake in the middle of the position, and the pavilions are built by the mountains and rivers for resting and office use on weekdays.
Shu Chang told Xia Xia that if time goes back more than a hundred years, everyone can still listen to a play and watch a song here. Although the Shu family is a scholarly family, but by no means the kind of stubborn and pedantic people, the policy of entertaining and educating in their family is implemented very well, at that time, the family not only raised a doorman, but also raised a few good troupes, from time to time to listen to a play, listen to a few Wu Nong's soft songs, that is really an extraordinary enjoyment.
It's just that now, the troupe will definitely not be able to raise anything, but the people of the Shu family can still find things to play and relax themselves to do. The way that Old Man Shu and Shu Chang chose is relatively normal, but it is just drinking tea, playing chess, and playing online games, Shu Yuan is different, watching movies starring Bai Xu every day and watching the latest situation of Bai Xu brought back by a private detective is his way to decompress.
"The most places in my uncle's study and bedroom are not the photos of Grandpa, himself, and me, but the posters and stills of the actor Bai Xu. When Shu Chang said this, he squeezed his eyebrows towards the summer with a narrow face, "Who would have thought that a person like my uncle, who is indifferent to everything and doesn't care about anything except his enthusiasm for work, would be so crazy infatuated with Bai Xu actor." Tut-tut, I really don't know what kind of charm Bai Xu actor has to conquer my uncle who has always liked to put on an unloveable face. It's a pity, Bai Xu has passed away, otherwise, I really want to meet him and feel it!"
Xia Xia listened to Shu Chang's words, touched his nose embarrassedly, and glanced at Bai Zhongqiu secretly, but as a result, facing Bai Zhongqiu's gaze, the two children were embarrassed for a while, coughed at the same time, and turned their heads.
Shu Chang looked at this, then at that, and smiled evilly at the unknown glances cast by the two adults in front of him, and continued to introduce the old mansion to everyone.
The biggest special feature of the atrium is not the garden architecture that people are accustomed to, but the lake under the rockery. This lake is actually the most central location of the whole house, just like predicted before the summer, under the lake is a huge formation, gathering the spiritual energy of a hundred miles here, which is also the best place to practice the exercises.
Passing through the royal garden-like atrium to the last floor of the courtyard, it is a different style, the complete architectural pattern of the courtyard of City B, which is also the residence of the Shu family. The four rooms in the upper room belonged to the old man, and this was originally the residence of the heads of the Shu family in previous dynasties, but neither Shu Yuan nor Shu Chang really moved here. Shu Yuan is because he is not in good health, he drinks medicine all day long, and he is very sick, and the old man means that it is best not to move, which is not conducive to his recuperation. And Shu Chang is very young, and he has not really inherited the Shu family yet, if he moves from the East Chamber, it will be a bit unjustifiable. Not to mention that the housekeepers and maids in the family will feel that something is wrong, even he himself will feel uncomfortable, as if he has moved to the main house, and he is on the same road as Ning Tao and Jin Mei who are trying to seize the property of the Shu family.
"You think too much, and no one thinks so. Xia Xia shook his head, this child from everyone is good everywhere, but his mind is too delicate and the things he thinks are too complicated. Look at Shu Chang, a child who is only a few years old, with such a heavy mind, I am afraid that it will be bad for your health in the future!
"I know, but I don't think it's good to do that, besides, the place where I live is where my uncle used to live, and there are many books there, and I like it very much. Shu Chang smiled at Xiaxia, glanced at Bai Zhongqiu, who had been silent, coughed twice, and said, "Actually, after being sick this time, I can understand why those two people ...... My adoptive parents are so desperate to get the Shu family, if nothing else, just getting this house, if they sell it, the money they get is enough to be safe...... No, it's been a splurge for a lifetime. The two of them have no children, so they don't have to think about the inheritance at all. ”
Shu Chang hugged Xiaxia's arm, rubbed it on his shoulder, and stuck out his tongue at Bai Zhongqiu, who was glaring at him, it looked much better than before he was discharged from the hospital, both mentally and physically, it was much stronger than before, it seemed that the messy things that happened before didn't have much impact on him, in other words, he had let go.
"Don't talk about those two people, they are insatiable, they don't know how to be grateful, they will take revenge, and they are not worthy of being your adoptive parents at all. If it weren't for Grandpa Tai protecting you, I guess you would have been tortured to death by them a long time ago. A trace of disgust appeared on Xia Xia's face, he hated Ning Tao and Jin Mei very much, he felt that they were not only unworthy of being Shuchang's adoptive parents, but also unworthy of being individuals. In this world, whether it is a good person or a bad person, he must have his own bottom line and conscience, until the last moment, he didn't see Ning Tao and Jin Mei's bottom line and conscience, in the last court session, they didn't even mention Shu Chang, these two people have been thinking about the wealth they haven't yet reached, and they still want to get the Shu family's ambition. "The mention of them upsets me!"
"Don't be upset, you see I'm all down. Shu Chang withstood the huge pressure, reached out and pinched his summer face, "Don't be sad at a young age, come, give my brother a smile!"
Summer was amused by his words, and bared her teeth at Shu Chang, "But speaking of these two people, I think of another person, I haven't heard from him for a long time, and I don't know if he's doing well." Xia Xia touched his chin, glanced at Xia Zewen and Father Xia, who were concentrating on driving and enjoying the scenery of the Shu family's mansion in front of him, turned his head and looked at Bai Zhongqiu, who had never left him, to inquire about the news, and asked in a low voice, "There are a lot of things to deal with recently, and I almost forgot about him, Brother Xiaoqiu, is the situation of that Zhan Yu Zhan good?"
"Well, the situation is good, the most dangerous time has passed, but I am still recuperating in the hospital, and I can't be discharged for the time being. ”
"It's just vomiting blood, how can it be so strict?"
"He is a strong person, investment banking is not an easy industry, you see he is in front of the people now, you can't tell how to suffer behind the scenes! Venture capitalists, overtime, black and white reversal of work and rest is commonplace, sometimes they can be a few days and nights out of sight, such a habit of life will naturally fall into some hidden diseases, at the critical moment will kill them. Zhan Yu was just in time for this time, and he was unlucky. ”
"High-risk occupations, although there is a lot of money, but it is all in exchange for good health. ”
"That's right, if many people can't become partners in venture capital companies, they will change careers early to do something else, few of them insist on this industry for ten years, or even decades, such work intensity is too damaging to the body, no matter how much money you make, it's useless to make money, make money to enjoy a high-quality life, but if you don't have health, no matter how rich you are, the quality of life can't be too good. Bai Zhongqiu rarely said such a long paragraph, and after finishing speaking, he was a little out of breath, and he eased up a little.
At this time, the car was already parked in the garage, and in the car in front of him, Old Man Shu had been helped down by Xia Zewu and Uncle Xia, and Bai Siyuan also walked down with their backpacks.
"Let's get out of the car and talk about it. ”
"Hmm. ”
"If nothing else, he'll leave when he's discharged from the hospital. Bai Zhongqiu opened the car door with his own and Summer's small bag, as well as Summer's small kettle, walked down, and continued with Summer, who came out with him, "He handled a relatively large amount of investment projects with a very strict mistake, the person in charge of this project and the investee conspired, and ran away after defrauding two investment funds, and is currently missing, although they have filed a case, but this series of changes has hit Zhan Yoo's company very big, and there are a lot of things that need to be dealt with." Zhan Yu hadn't woken up from his coma before, and the person who dealt with these things was his assistant, but the assistant was too young and inexperienced, and he didn't do things very reliably, otherwise he wouldn't have let those people run away like this. After Zhan Yu heard about it, he seemed to vomit blood again, but fortunately it was not too strict and did not cause a coma. If it weren't for the people around me, I would have run back a long time ago. This time he will go back, and he will not be able to come back for a short time, at least for three or five years, and we will not see him. That's good, and when he comes back, we'll be ready, and that's when the two sides really get going. ”
"That's right. Shu Chang, who had been listening, nodded frequently, "When the time comes, whoever kills the deer will die, but it's not up to him to decide!"
"The tone is quite big!However, I really didn't expect it, Zhan Yun's vision has always been very accurate, he hasn't missed a move for so many years, why is this time so big, so strict?" Xia Xia frowned slightly, "Brother Xiaoqiu, this matter won't have your hand, right?"
"Nope. Bai Zhongqiu shook his head, "Although I also belong to the kind of unscrupulous people who do things, I still have my own bottom line, and I won't do this kind of thing." ”
"I'm not suspicious of you, I just don't want you to get involved. ”
"Well, I know it. This matter has nothing to do with the people on our side, it's purely Zhan Yun's bad luck, he is too conceited, so ...... Those who do this line of work will encounter such things sooner or later, he was too smooth before, and it is not too late to suffer a loss now. ”
Xia patted his paws approvingly, and by the way, silently lit a piece of wax to Zhan Yu in his heart, Zhan Yun, if you don't want to go, I wish you a smooth journey!.
