Most of the Wen family's property is gone, but it still retains the bearing of the hairpin family, in the courtyard of the high gate, carved beams and painted columns, bucket arches and cornices, everywhere shows the glory of the family.

Removing the confiscated and separated Wen Pinhuai's northern compound, the Wen family still has three courtyards in the west, east and south, each compound contains six five-entry courtyards, a total of countless rooms, and each courtyard is connected by a corridor and a corridor.

When Wan Chaoyun was not yet one year old, he came to the Wen family's compound that had not yet been defeated, and the Wen family at that time was very lively, with maids and servants often lining up from the corridor to bring melons and fruits and snacks to each hall to entertain guests.

Looking at it now, the huge and deep compound is deserted, the corners of the walls are covered with weeds, the walls are also soaked in moss, and the murals carved by countless skilled craftsmen are hidden in the traces of time.

Stepping on the neatly cut bluestone slab, it didn't take long to come to the south courtyard where the second room lived, perhaps because of the Wen family's Zhaoxue, two red lanterns were hung at the gate.

The entire gate seemed to have just been wiped, revealing the real gold painting under the eaves, and the golden sunlight shone brightly on it.

On the door plaque, the two big characters of the south courtyard are flying and the phoenix are dancing, which makes people sigh at the author's skills.

There are easy-to-understand couplets hanging on the left and right sides, and it is not easy for the rich to be rich, and the poor and lowly are not moving.

Under the couplet, there are two stone lions, which are still as new as new after many years, and the edge is still there, mightily guarding the century-old compound behind them.

After the gate of the south courtyard, go to the verandah on the left, the verandah is extremely long, at a glance, only to see two rows of rolling lacquer giant pillars stand up, there are exquisite wood carvings on the huge pillars, carved with elegant patterns such as plum orchid bamboo chrysanthemum, look up, the eaves seem to hook the auspicious clouds in the blue sky.

Every few steps, when I looked up, I saw the Wen family motto hanging under the beam, one by one, like a swimming dragon.

Walking through the long verandah, I finally saw the three words Jingtaiyuan under the lush trees not far away, and Wen's face showed a gentle smile, "This time I went to Taizhou, I had to leave Fubo alone at home." ”

"Fu Bo is older than his father, I'm afraid I can't stand the fatigue of traveling, it's better to stay in Qingzhou, and look at home." Wan Che answered.

Fu Bo was the housekeeper of their house, and later the Wen family fell, and the old man let go of their family's deed of sale, but Fu Bo was unwilling to leave, and still stayed in the Wen family to serve the old man.

As soon as he walked to the gate of the courtyard, Fu Bo, who was trembling with his walking, appeared, he grinned, revealing his only three or two teeth, "The girl and the aunt are back, this is the cousin, I haven't seen her for a few years, but she has grown so big." He looked eagerly at Wan Chaoyun.

After returning to Wanjia Village that year, Mr. Wen also followed, she never came to the Wen family, Fu Bo is old, naturally he has never been to Wanjia Village, but he hasn't seen him for a few years?

Wan Chaoyun wanted to step forward and call someone, but Fu Bo turned around and called the old man, "Master, the girl, the aunt and the cousin are here." ”

Xu is old man who had just come back from chatting in other courtyards soon appeared, and he said with a smile: "I just told your third uncle about the conversation, he has something to do, so I will take care of myself, by the way, several of your cousins have also been put back." ”

"Dad, I know, big brother has said it before." Wen was helpless, the Wen family was reborn, and he was so happy that he had to say it two or three times a day, as if it was more true to keep saying it like this.

Wan Che stepped forward to help the old man, and then answered: "Dad is happy, you let Dad say." ”

"Hey, it's better to be a son-in-law, how can there be half a son-in-law in the water that my daughter spilled." The old man said 'heartbroken'.

Wen pretended to be angry, not to be outdone, and shot back, "Yes, yes, you are going to eat crayfish when the time comes, just don't look for my daughter, I won't kiss me anyway." ”

"It's not your daughter alone, really, I still want to threaten your father, but there is no door." The old man was extremely proud, and Fu Bo and the servants on the side were amused.

Talking and laughing, he has come to the main hall, and Wan Gui is familiar with the food box sent by Wuweiju and puts it in the dining room, "Grandfather, father, mother, let's eat first, otherwise the dishes will be cold." "Wan Chaoyun Dao.

"Okay, let's eat some simple food to cushion my stomach first, and then make a table tomorrow, and call a few people from other courtyards to gather together." The old man laughed, as happy as a boy who was about to spend candles in the cave.

Liu Mei laid out the meals one by one, and Wen said: "You are also tired, Mama Zhou, hurry up and cook some meals, and have a good rest for the night after eating, you have to be busy tomorrow." ”

"Hey." Mama Zhou responded, but she didn't know where to go, although it was not the first time she came to the Wen family, but it was the first time to cook in the Wen family, and she didn't know where the kitchen was.

Cui Luo intimately led her to the kitchen, the two of them went out from the side door, bypassed the corridor, and walked into the mobile game, passed two moon doors, and then arrived at the kitchen, "The Wen family is really big." ”

At this time, there were only Cui Luo and her, so she didn't have any scruples, and a pair of glowing eyes looked around, "How much silver does it cost to carve this door like this?" ”

"Mama Zhou, you, it's okay to do this in front of me, but you can't do it in front of others." Triro smiled and admonished her.

"Yes, yes." Mama Zhou was once again extremely glad that she did not leave the Wanjia family, and the general mansions of wealthy families are all home-born, and she can only be rough when she goes in halfway, how can she cook for the master's family.

"The kitchen is here, you watch it first, and I'll make the bed for the lady and girl." Triro stood at the kitchen door.

Mama Zhou looked at the kitchen that was bigger than the small thatched hut in Wanjia Village, and her steps were light, she was really a wealthy family, she originally thought that Wanjia was good enough, but she didn't think that Wanjia was as big as a courtyard.

The masters ate the food sent by Wuweiju, pay attention to it, and the people ate it less exquisitely, and soon a few dishes were made, and the rice was cooked, she looked outside, Cuiluo had not come yet, but if she waited any longer, the dishes would be cold.

Thinking about it, she took off her girdle and went out of the kitchen, and walked back along the road she came from, the night had fallen, and the hexagonal lamp standing on the side of the road had been unrefueled for too long, and it was pitch black, but fortunately there was a silver moon hanging high in the sky, and the cold moonlight poured down, and the naked eye could vaguely see where the road was going.

Suddenly, Mama Zhou seemed to hear a voice coming from behind the cluster of cannas not far away, "Can it be done today?" It was a female voice, and it seemed to be in her forties, and there was no ethereal voice of a young woman.

"Yes!" Male voice, Mama Zhou instinctively leaned on the pillar, for fear of causing some trouble.

"If you don't kill that slut today, you're good-looking!" The woman seemed to grit her teeth.

"Madame, don't worry, it will happen today!" The man assured.

After this sound, I heard a burst of rustling, and it was completely quiet after a while, Mama Zhou didn't dare to move, waiting, waiting, waiting until her feet were numb, and then waiting for Cuiluo.

"Why are you here?" Mama Zhou saw Cuiluo coming over with the lights, so she hurriedly greeted her, and asked in a low voice.

Cui Luo walked fast, she didn't expect to rush out of the person halfway, so she was startled, "Brother Yong just knocked a piece of skin, and I came over after the bleeding stopped." ”

"Seriously?" Mama Zhou immediately asked with concern.

"It's okay, I've fallen asleep."

"Since you have something, why don't you let Liu Mei come?" The two talked in a low voice as they walked.

"She's like you, how can she know the way? Let's go, I'm hungry too. ”

"By the way, I think I heard someone talking here just now." Mama Zhou looked around, it was dark at night, and she couldn't see the exquisite carvings she saw during the day, only a huge black shadow was enveloped in the courtyard, blocking Yuehua from the outside, which was strange and scary.

"What did you say?" Cui Luo immediately asked vigilantly, she urinated and lived in the Wen family, a high-ranking family, and saw a lot of dirty and dirty things, and when she heard it, her hair stood up.

Mama Zhou said what she heard, and then looked at Cuiluo.

Cui Luo stopped, her brows furrowed, and her face turned pale, "Let's go, go and see." ”
