The mother and daughter took a string of zongzi out of the inner instrument door of the main courtyard, and entered an east-west sandwich road from the east yi gate of the open hall.

Entering from the corner door, you must first pass through a hall, where there is a marble floor screen of ebony ink flowers nearly one zhang wide, on one side of the screen is the "towering Dongshan map" created according to its ink pattern, and on the other side there is an inscription poem, "Pingming ascends to the sun, raises your hand to open the clouds." The spirit is flying, like going out of heaven and earth. With the cliff to see the eight poles, the eyes are long and idle. As soon as the gate of heaven roared, the breeze came'. Yuyi is very conscientious as a tour guide, "This is what the imperial grandfather wrote when he climbed Dongshan. ”

Gu Ci secretly complained: Although my sister is not a liberal arts student, she looks familiar with the words......

In the past, it was a large flower hall, hung with a bamboo curtain of Xiangfei, and a set of Huanghuali tables, chairs and screen stools inside. The yard is planted with lush pines and cypresses, which is cool and pleasant, and Yuyi is generally here to serve.

The screen door on the east side of the flower hall used to be the east courtyard where the four Lang Jun lived.

Crossing the flower hall to the courtyard of the upper room, among which there are three and four ears, the carved beams and paintings are magnificent, and the verandah on both sides leads to the east and west across the courtyard, and there are a few parrots and a row of small wind chimes hanging under the corridor. The middle door rolled up a flowery Liangping bamboo curtain, and the maids and women by the door were uniformly dressed, all squatting and saluting, without a trace of noise.

Entering the door, in the middle of the bright room is a wide yellow pear dragon and phoenix auspicious pattern soft couch, on the top of the jujube red silk satin base black color mixed with gold thread brocade edging ivory mat, real red luan phoenix pattern silk satin backrest and the same color pillow. On both sides, there is a pair of matching plum blossom type luodian wide tables. On the left, there is a Wenwang lotus platform unicorn pattern ink jade incense burner, green smoke curling, fragrant and elegant; On the right, a Ru kiln azure beauty is interpolated, with a large bunch of double petaled drunken hibiscus or white inserted. There are spoons and incense boxes, tea bowls, phlegm boxes and other things on the table, all of which are exquisite and extraordinary. In front of the couch, there are four chairs and two chairs, and the chairs are all set up with a bamboo chair with silver and red peacock pattern brocade locking, and a small square ivory mat cushion, several tea bowls and vases are prepared, and eight pairs of feet are underneath.

On the wall behind the soft couch is a large hanging screen of oak and jade carving, framed with butterflies and peonies, although it is not very possible to feel the gorgeous color, but the flowers are stacked with a kind of beauty of wanton blooming, Gu Ci likes it very much. Then turn around and look around, find that the hanging screen and the eight screens on the wall on both sides are the same series, all kinds of colorful flowers, spring, rhododendron, camellia, osmanthus, hibiscus, passionflower, begonia, everything, even the plum blossom with high quality as the bone, the orchid with ice jade as the muscle, are painted in a colorful way, the lines are flying, revealing a Fen Fu Xinrong freehand fun, but there is no trace of the disadvantages of the fine brush and heavy color carving under the 'hair loss of appearance'.

Yuyi was overjoyed when she watched her little daughter look around this set of screen paintings, and smiled dotingly: "I will send these big screens to no place for a while." I remember that this set also had a few kang screens in the library, and they were sent to the East Cross Courtyard together with the small hanging screens. ”

Gu Ci was excited and a little shy, and pulled his mother to be coquettish: "Thank you, mother!" I like A-Niang the most! "Although she only learned the basics of sketching in her previous life, she likes Chinese painting very much, and hopes that she can point this skill point when her eyes are better in the future.

"Yin Wuju is my house?"

"You live in the East Cross Courtyard first, and when you turn six, you can move in."

"I don't want to be too far away from my mother."

"It's right behind the upper room. Don't worry, my mother will clean it up for you slowly, and I promise to make it beautiful. Yuyi smiled sweetly, "Let's look at the house." ”

The mother and daughter walked hand in hand across the courtyard to the east.

***********************

Gu Ci does not have many rooms in the east courtyard, and a spacious bright room is similar to the layout of the upper room, except that the things are more delicate and cute, and there are ivory mats on a couch and four chairs. There is also a table of eight immortals in the room, on which are placed the gifts received today. The east room is slightly smaller and is her bedroom, and the west room is bright and open, making it a study.

I didn't have time to look at the house, so I went to open the gift first. Several purses are either jade pendants or jade ornaments, the only exception is a round purse, which actually contains a small pure gold bracelet with complex dragon and phoenix patterns - such a tyrant's style! Who sent it?

After thinking about it carefully, it was the fifth lady. She tilted her head to look at her mother, and Yuyi smiled slightly, noncommittal.

The other sisters sent embroidery, and the handkerchief sachets were put together, and only the box sent by the fifth sister Gu Yi made her 'surprised' - more surprised than happy - the cone-shaped chess pieces, the six-pointed star chessboard, is actually a checkers!

Is there already such a thing in this era? Gu Ci was stunned and didn't know how to react.

"I've never seen it." Yuyi also came over to take a look. But seeing a large number of red, yellow, blue, green, purple and white chess pieces inside, thinking that her daughter couldn't recognize it yet, she suddenly disliked Gu Yi: This chess piece is a bit rare, and I want to hook my daughter to get close to her, but knowing that Ah Luan's eyes are not good, I hurriedly roared and sent it, which is too unreasonable. Afraid that her daughter would think too much, she turned her head and instructed the four big maids beside Gu Ci, "Gan Ming, register these into the county lord's treasury, and you will be in charge of the money and things in the house in the future; Gan Lin is optimistic about clothes and jewelry; As long as you leave the Qingyi Courtyard, Ganlu Gantang, one of you must not leave the county lord. Do you understand? "The four maidens should be squatting.

Yuyi waved away the people, leaving only Hu's mother, pulled her daughter to sit on the couch, and taught her in a low voice: "Ah Luan Ke understands why my mother arranged it like this?"

Gu Ci, who came back to his senses, hurriedly replied: "I know." ”

Gan Tang is the oldest and the best, and his mother is a female secret guard by Yuyi's side; Ganlu is the son of the Gu family, and the whole family was directly handed over to Gu Yao by Gu Hua, and they also have a kung fu background, and they are first-class maids.

Gan Ming can write and calculate, her mother was originally a palace maid next to Empress Dowager Xiao, and she married in with Yuyi; Gan Lin is careful and thoughtful, good at dressing up, has an excellent memory, and his parents are both married to the Xie family, and the two of them are second-class.

"Do you have an idea what Ganyu and Ganquan are going to do?" These two are also second-class.

Gu Ci thought for a while and said, "Mother Hu said that Ganyu is also a child, can she be allowed to run errands and deliver messages like Sister Caiyue?" ”

Ganyu's parents and family are all living in the Zhuangzi of the long house, and there are many relatives in the house, and she herself is also lively, which is very suitable for intelligence work.

"Yes."

"Ganquan ......" Gu Ci hesitated, this person is mediocre in all aspects, his temper is honest and honest, he can't show it at all on weekdays, whoever asks her to take a hand will go, it doesn't seem to be anything special.

Ganquan used to be an abandoned baby, because the monks of Tiemei Monastery had good medical skills, and many abandoned sick children and girls who could not afford or did not want to be raised at the temple gate. If it is a boy, the temple can still adopt it, but if the girl is a little older, it will be very troublesome and can only be sent to Sian Chay Hall. Since Yuyi moved to Wangshan Courtyard, in order to accumulate blessings for Gu Ci, she has taken the girl in and stayed. Ganquan has already found out the details and carefully selected before he can send it to her to serve.

"May I ask her what she wants to do first......" Gu Ci asked a little timidly.

The attitude of the employees I hired myself is much better than the work attitude of the people who were sent to work, but it doesn't seem to be suitable here. She had a good impression of Ganquan and didn't want her to lose her job.

"Then what if she says she wants to do Ganyu's work?"

"Huh?" There is a lot of competition here for jobs! Can I dig a hole before planting a radish? "Then what's left to do?"

"She is a second-class maid, and she has to take care of things for you in your house, not let her do the work by herself, which is the business of the little maids outside. Got it? ”

"How much can I do? Master said that my big thing is to eat, drink and be merry. ”

"In the past, I naturally wouldn't detain you in the other courtyard, but now that I'm home, the rules have to be up."

"Whew, mother, I suddenly went deaf just now, and I didn't hear anything!"

"Stinky girls are not allowed to interrupt!" The little ass was gently greeted and slapped in the face.

"Then she will accompany me to learn the rules!"

"Ah Luan thinks Ganquan is good?"

"Hmm. She was quiet. Gu Ci suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "Mother, let Ganquan take care of the food, this will be useful, I'll let her go to the kitchen to order a dish now." What if you don't have enough to eat at night, right? ”

"Just think about eating. Just tell Gan Tang about Ganyu and Ganquan in a while, you don't have to do anything yourself, you have to learn to let your maid do things for you. ”

"Okay."

"Let's go, look at your boudoir."

The first lesson of the noble girl tutorial ends.

***********************

There is a carved male door in the east room, and there are eight yellow pear and white jade screens when you enter, which are carved with plum orchid, bamboo chrysanthemum, pine, cypress, lotus and willow. Behind the screen is also a water of Huanghuali furniture, the right hand of a high roof of the big bed, hanging eaves and horizontal eyebrows are carved openwork, look like eight immortals across the sea, the front fence and the surrounding baffle are engraved with the dragon Xiang nine days, the phoenix jade, the unicorn spitfire and Pixiu send treasure and other patterns, the curtain is the color of the soft peach, goose yellow, bean green and other leno, all exquisite. The bed was covered with a thick mattress and an ivory mat, and her old soft pillows and cryptic sacs were placed in the annex.

A matching dressing table sits by the large window opposite the bed, and the sunlight shines through the open dresser, and the various jewelry sparkles with a piece of jewelry.

In the other corner is the tortoiseshell shell-inlaid washbasin and the secret door leading to the clean room, and there is a wardrobe on the wall, and the water lilies in the urn on the table are as white as jade, shining brightly, exuding a faint floral fragrance.

Except for the large bed, which was wide enough to roll around without falling off, the rest of the furniture was a small children's version.

Gu Cixi couldn't help but run to her bed. She loves this kind of bed that feels infinite, and she has never slept in a bed other than KINGSIZE since she left the crib in her previous life!

"Mother, this bed is so big, the four brothers can sleep when they come!"

"This is your boudoir, how can you let the stinky boys in?"

Yuyi was not surprised to see that her daughter was blind to the jewelry in the makeup, ran to the big bed, turned around and asked Hu's mother to find a bunch of delicate little clothes that she had made for her before, and began to change her clothes with great interest, while exchanging ideas and advice with Hu's mother, just like playing with dolls.

Gu Ci cooperated with his mother to play, while emptying his mind, thinking about the checkers sent by Gu Yi. Even if he vaguely felt that Taizong was a crossing emperor, he didn't expect that a living fellow would appear around him.

Which one will it be?
