For a while, there were only two people left in the room, Zhou Qin and Haitang, and she couldn't help but think about Mama Meng's words again and again. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

A few years ago, Mrs. Zhao loved to go out very much, either taking her two brothers and sisters out of the house, or taking Zhou Qin to visit relatives and friends. It's just that in recent years, Zhou Yanzhi has entered the palace to study, and he has only rested for a few days in October, and he has to be busy with schoolwork when he gets home, so as not to be punished by the master when he returns to the palace. Zhou Qin often interacts with He Suyu, and has a few boudoir friends, and also forms a circle of her own, she took Zhou Qin out, but to meet some relatives and friends, and talk about some topics between their old people, these things, Zhou Qin is not interested.

Zhou Qin was a child in the end, so he couldn't help but show a little bit on his face, so Mrs. Zhao took her out less, and then she simply went out less.

Old Mrs. Zhao is alone, although she has a servant woman, she can't compare to her relatives. Zhou Qin is at home all the year round, and he also invited a master to teach literature at home, and Zhou Yanzhi taught her poetry, literature and scriptures, and often took a girl to find He Sushen and others to go out to enjoy the fun, but she didn't have much time to accompany her.

Mrs. Zhao has been busy with family affairs in the early years, and then after a series of great changes, the money and business have also faded, the family industry has its own external shopkeeper, and there are also skilled servants in the family to take care of it, and she is idle for a while, and finds that she is useless, and she must be a little stunned.

At this time, it was time for Zhou Yanzhi to enter the palace to study, and Zhou Qin was in charge of learning.

The population of the Protector's Mansion is simple, Zhou Qin has been smart since he was a child, and Mama Meng and others have grasped things, so they have started in a year or two, and since then, Mrs. Zhao has put her hands away and searched left and right, but she can't find her own usable place.

Zhou Qin once heard that there are some important ministers and elders who have retired from high positions from poor backgrounds, and they are busy all year round, but once they are idle and have no sustenance, they are often prone to have some things, and they don't encounter anything, and most of them die quickly. Just like a spring, originally pressed tightly, one day suddenly let go, it is easy to lose elasticity, at this time it is best to let go slowly, but also give some pressure, so that the spring slowly adapts.

Therefore, some people say that being an official looks at three generations, whether it is for people and the accumulation of resources, it is the way to cultivate one's body, if it is the child of an official eunuch, there is an old man who teaches him how to study, take the imperial examination, eat, and even nourish oneself, birth, old age, sickness and death, and there is a cycle.

It's a pity that Mrs. Zhao came from a humble background after all, although she has a lot of experience, and she has a thousand truths on her lips, but it is difficult to implement it.

She doesn't have to put any pressure on her at this time, but she has few people to accompany her, and those old friends in the past, or her grandson Chenghuan's knees, or her son and daughter-in-law are pestering, and she can't find a few who can always be free, and there is no big event, so she has to listen to music and talk every day to pass the time.

Zhou Qin made up his mind to go out often to find Mrs. Zhao, and also took more time to talk to her.

That's for later.

Huiyuan is in the south of Kyoto City, and it takes two hours to go out of the outer city and let the horses run.

The next day, after a hasty breakfast, they got into the carriage. Zhou Qin was worried about Mrs. Zhao's hard work, so he asked people to tell the driver to be slower than to turn upside down, because it was already past noon in the Hui Garden.

That Hui Garden is built in the upper reaches of Jinshui River, the water quality here is very clear, and there are many green trees such as weeping willow, pine and cypress, green bamboo, camphor, etc., and more planted peony peony, jasmine sunflower, autumn tea of Muxi, white plum narcissus and other flowers and trees in four seasons, there are grand scenes in all seasons, what is more rare is that there is a corner of the wall in the garden, planted with frangipani flowers that are tall in person, its fragrance is fragrant, and the flower color is pleasant.

Different from the royal gardens that are regularly open to the public every year such as the Golden Water Pool, the Hui Garden is located in a remote area, it is the private property of an unknown person, if you want to enter the door to watch, you need to send a sticker in advance, the price is not to mention, and the number of people in and out is limited every day, so that in the late spring of March, when the flowers are in full bloom, the garden is still quiet and elegant, and there is little noise.

There are 11 courtyards in the Hui Garden, each courtyard is different, the courtyard is planted with flowers and trees, according to the season or open peony rose begonia, or open gardenia jasmine, or open orchid autumn chrysanthemum, or open wood spring Ruixiang and other things, the house structure is ingenious, the furnishings are elegant, and the guests are waiting to live.

Zhou Qin helped Mrs. Zhao's hand into the Hui Garden, and the steward of the Hui Garden, who had already confirmed the identity of everyone with the servants, greeted him, and after bowing his hand, he introduced the layout of the Hui Garden while taking them to the mansion area.

Zhou Qin has also been in charge of a huge industry in his previous life, and he has seen many principals, and he has seen that this person has a dignified appearance and speaks properly, if he is placed outside, even the shopkeeper of the general shop may not have such a talent as him, but he is just a steward in Huiyuan. There are a total of eleven courtyards here, if each courtyard can be equipped with such a level of stewardship, the owner of this Hui Garden can be called powerful.

Zhou Qin and others got off the car in the east of Huiyuan, only a tea distance away from the courtyard area, green grass and red flowers along the way, and they saw a house in a short time. The steward took everyone to a courtyard and said, "I have reserved a magnolia courtyard for the old lady, and there are roses blooming in this courtyard, so you can sit in the courtyard and enjoy it." He took the key and stepped forward to open the door, and handed the key to Mama Meng.

Zhou Qin saw that there was a two-story building next door, with red walls and black tiles, high eaves and teeth, and a few osmanthus trees rising above the wall, and asked, "What kind of courtyard is that?" ”

The steward glanced at her gaze and said with a smile: "That's the Muxi Building, which is planted with gold and silver and two gui, and lived in August and September, and the cinnamon is full of incense, so why don't you leave it for the girl, and wait for the Mid-Autumn Festival to live again." ”

Zhou Qin looked at Old Madam Zhao and saw that she did not refuse, so he nodded and said, "When it is autumn, I will set a time with you." ”

When I entered the yard, I entered the door with a strange fragrance, and sure enough, there was a path in front of me, and there were many roses planted on both sides, and at this time there were seven or eight colors of flowers, or double petals, or single petals, hanging all over the branches. Along the way, there are a few small pools of unopened lotus flowers stretching their leaves. The yard is not very big, but the dog's teeth are staggered, roses are everywhere, there are rockeries, flowing water, small pools, and there are several stone benches and stone tables between them, which really makes people feel comfortable.

Walking inside, I saw a three-entry house, and there were already seven or eight servants waiting in the courtyard, and when they saw the guests coming, they came forward to serve with hot water and tea.

Mama Meng and others went to answer, and Mrs. Zhao and Zhou Qin chose a room and went into the room to wash up.

After Zhou Qin finished tidying up, he saw Fangcao walk in with a smile on her face, and said, "Girl, there is a big courtyard at the back, all of which are Yueyuehong, and the old lady said that we went to the backyard at noon and set a table for dinner." He was eager to try: "It's better to let Begonia follow you first, and I'll go out to touch the big garden of this Huiyuan." ”

The two big girls around Zhou Qin, Begonia is fourteen years old, with a calm temperament, but Fangcao is only twelve, with lively personalities, and both of them have their own personalities.

Zhou Qinwan smiled, "Cushion something before you go." ”

Fangcao has to be promised by her, where can she endure it, her mouth should respond, but the person has already gone out. Haitang laughed and scolded beside him, "This hoof is getting more and more uncontrollable." He went out again and shouted, "Don't run, look where it's good to fly a kite." ”

Fangcao responded from afar, and I don't know if I heard it clearly.
