Chapter 175: Return to Qi Mansion (I)

Gu Xiyan was not so naΓ―ve, thinking that when she returned to Qi Mansion, there would be someone to give her time to breathe and adapt, so when she knew that the carriage would arrive at the Yanguo Mansion in the evening, she slept beautifully in the car, and now she followed Siping through the verandah with Siping in high spirits, stopping from time to time to ask what the buildings around Siping were for.

Siping wiped his cold sweat and said, "The place we came out of just now is called the Humble Administrator's Hall, which is the meeting hall of the Yanguo Mansion, and the rooms on both sides are the detention rooms of the various divisions. Behind the Humble Administrator's Hall is the Dezheng Hall where the Lord usually deals with official business, and there is a small courtyard called Qinyuan on the left behind the Dezheng Hall, which is the study, and the Lord usually rests there. There are three courtyards side by side behind the woods you see on the left, the pear orchard is directly behind the Qin Garden, the left side is Wanqing Xuan, and the left side is the Shuangfeng Pavilion. Because there is a pear blossom forest behind the pear orchard, it is larger than Wanqingxuan and Shuangfeng Pavilion, there is a corner gate next to the pear blossom forest, and you can enter it to embrace Cuiju, behind Wanqingxuan and Shuangfeng Pavilion. Behind Yongcui Ju, there is the Attack Incense Pavilion, and when you go out of the Attack Fragrance Pavilion, it is the Dexin Courtyard, and you enter the backyard..."

As they spoke, they entered the pear orchard.

The pear orchard during the day is a little different from what I saw that night, and it looks bigger.

From the side of the verandah into the hanging flower door is the wall shadow, around the wall shadow is the spacious courtyard and open building, the right side of the open building is the corner door she entered from the alley last time, by the corner door to build a roll shed, there is a two-door moon hole at the end of the roll shed. Siping looked at Gu Xiyan's eyes and said with a smile: "There is a commuter park." ”

Could it be that Qi Maosheng said that the pear orchard was the closest place to his library.

At this time, Gu Xiyan found that there was a moon cave on the east side of the front steps of the open building, so she pointed to the door: "There, but it leads to Wanqingxuan?" ”

Siping glanced at it smoothly and said with a smile: "Yes, it is there that the Wanqingxuan is lived." ”

It's just a moon hole. There is no gate.

"Let's go, let's take a look!" Gu Xiyan took the lead in walking over there.

Entering the moon cave, facing the mountain made of Taihu Lake stone, in April, crawling full of green vine plants, passing through the mountain, is a flower garden, the area is not large, but there are also four or five acres of appearance. It is full of flowers. Adorned with flower bones. To the west of the flower garden, there is a forest, in the thick greenery, there are several small and delicate houses in the horizontal area, which is very elegant.

Gu Xiyan was angry.

I didn't expect that Wanqingxuan was so beautiful.

Siping pointed to the houses in the distance and said, "There are a total of four houses, which are called the crescent moon, the eyebrow moon, the string moon, and the dawn moon..."

It's called such a name!

She wanted to get closer, but there was the sound of light footsteps behind her.

When the two turned around, they saw Mo Ju looking by the mountain.

When she saw Gu Xiyan, she breathed a sigh of relief. Said: "Second girl, well, madam, Aunt Duan is looking for you, saying that the grandmothers who came to marry are waiting for you to say hello!" ”

From now on, this will be her home, and the future will be long!

Gu Xiyan turned around and followed Mo Ju back to the pear orchard.

In the open building, the tall Aunt Duan was surrounded by several unfamiliar women. Seeing Gu Xiyan from afar, they all knelt down, and when Siping saw this, he took the opportunity to leave.

Gu Xiyan took off his hat and sat down on the Taishi chair in front of the Changxia long case, took a sip of tea on the jade, and moistened his throat, which made a group of women get up and speak.

"This one belongs to Li Debao's family. This is from the Ma Si family. This one belongs to Liu Liufu's family, and this one belongs to Shi Zi'an's family. This one belongs to Qu Tianci's family, this one belongs to Liu Wu'an's family, this one belongs to Li Ping's family, and this one belongs to Liu Xiao's family. Cuiyu introduced the eight-room wedding servants sent by the Wei family one by one.

Gu Xiyan smiled and nodded, and then asked about everyone's errands, only to know that the original person had been pulled out of the pear orchard, and the place where he lived was also placed in Shangzheng, but because Gu Xiyan did not speak, they were still idle.

She asked, "I don't know if the monthly money has been paid?" ”

Everyone looked at each other a little.

One of the petite women stepped forward and said, "If you go back to Madame, the monthly money has been paid!" ”

Gu Xiyan smiled and said, "Since this is the case, there is nothing to worry about, just treat it as a holiday for everyone during this time." Grandpa Guo and I have just returned home today, and there are still a lot of trivial things to do, so everyone will take this opportunity to repair it, and I will send you an errand in a few days. Go back to your own house. ”

So far, she doesn't know how many people on her side can operate normally, so naturally it is not easy to accompany these married grandmothers.

When these people left, Gu Xiyan asked Cuiyu: "A few girls have arrived!" ”

Cuiyu hurriedly smiled: "It's all here." I'm putting it in my luggage! ”

Gu Xiyan got up and went to the main room.

The towering trees are already lush and green, and green vines have climbed on the flower shelves on one side, and there are a few duckweed floating in the large fish tank under the shelves, and red koi fish can be seen paddling across the water from time to time.

Entering the room, the eight pear blossom wood screws in front of the front wall have been covered with scarlet ground twig flower cushions on the mountain-shaped Arhat bed in front of the front wall, and several pots of green ground plants are placed on the coffee table between the pear blossom wood Taishi chairs. Entering the dark room in the east, there is a tea set on the kang table near the window, all kinds of exquisite jade are placed in the multi-treasure grid next to the corner door, and the curtain next to the falling flower cover has been replaced with lake silk for spring.

Everything is full of life.

Bypassing the silk screen of the young chicken peony, Yan Hong, Xia Qing, Xingyu, and Yunshang were clearing the clothes brought to Hongtai from the camphor wood box and putting them in the high cabinet next to the eight-step bed.

The corners of Gu Xiyan's eyes swept over, and he only felt that his eyes were sparkling, and he couldn't help but let out a "huh".

All are hand-embroidered large flowers, without a little gap, without a leaf, colorful, different shapes, like sunset, like a shawl, with gorgeous brilliance, showing a kind of luxurious beauty.

It's the skirt that I have never had the chance to wear on my body!

She couldn't help squatting down, gently caressing the uneven embroidery on her skirt, and said a little choked: "Mo Ju, why is this..."

A red cloud rose on Mo Ju's face, and she pulled Gu Xiyan to the outer kang. Said in a low voice: "... I followed the girl's example and put four boxes of clothes and jewelry in the pawnshop... At first, I thought it was a bandit or a human trafficker, but I didn't dare to make a sound, but then I knew that it was the person who was the grandfather of the country, so I gave the pawn ticket to the person surnamed Tian, saying that it was your thing... Don't ask about the indiscriminate, bad girl's business... Let him, let him bring it back... I didn't think I would go. That's why I didn't dare to say anything to you... Who knows. I really went to Shengjing again. I gave something from the pawnshop and ransomed it back..."

Gu Xiyan looked at the red cloud on Mo Ju's face suspiciously: "What kind of face are you red?" ”

Mo Judi's face turned even redder, and he said, "No, no red face... It's a little hot..."

Gu Xiyan smiled thoughtfully.

Behind the corner door next to Duobaoge is a washroom, a wooden barrel with a diameter of at least two meters, soaking in it like a bath, I don't know how enjoyable it is. Gu Xiyan freshened up well, and then went to bed, leaving the people in the room dumbfounded.

Only Duan Niang dared to say more: "This house is full of chaos." You will have to go to worship your ancestors with your grandfather later, and say hello to Mrs. Xu..."

Gu Xiyan put her head on the edge of the bed and asked Yunshang to dry her hair, and said, "That's why I have to make up for sleep." Maosheng, wait for him, I don't know when I have to wait, when he comes. You just wake me up...", he closed his eyes and went to sleep.

In her heart, Mrs. Xu's place, but it is a tough battle, if she doesn't raise enough spirits, how will she respond!

At about eight o'clock in the evening, Qi Maosheng returned to the pear orchard, and the red lanterns were hung under the eaves of the pear orchard. The garden is bright and lively. Qi Maosheng paused, and there was a hint of gentleness in his slightly tired demeanor. He walked into the room with a warm heart. I saw Duan Niang helplessly directing the girls in the room to set things. Seeing Qi Maosheng, her face turned red, and she hurriedly glanced at Mo Ju, and she stepped forward to greet Qi Maosheng.

Qi Maosheng entered the house a little confused, and saw Gu Xiyan dressing with his hands and feet, and when he saw him come in, he looked up and said, "You are here", and then called Qiu Shi to come in and comb her hair.

Qi Maosheng couldn't help but smile: "You can really do it, you can sleep at any hour!" ”

Gu Xiyan sneered: "Isn't it that I want to cultivate enough spirit so that I can go to see Mrs. Xu?" ”

After Qi Maosheng finished washing, Gu Xiyan's hair was also combed.

The snow moth in the shape of a small daisy, the Dongzhu earrings with lotus seeds and rice, the high-necked jacket with garnet red hips and waist, and the duck blue eight-panel skirt look youthful and beautiful, solemn and lovely.

Qi Maosheng couldn't help but take her hand: "Let's go to worship our ancestors first, and then go to say goodbye to Mrs. Xu!" ”

Gu Xiyan thought of that day in the pear orchard, in the dark, he was also holding Qi Maosheng's hand like this.

There was a few tenderness between her eyebrows, and the whole person seemed even more quiet, and she saw Qi Maosheng's arrhythmia skipping a few beats.

The two of them came out of the pear orchard, and Gu Xiyan found that the entire Yanguo Mansion seemed to be alive, with bright lights, a group of servants, and solemnity in the tranquility.

Walk along the verandah in front of the pear garden gate, and then walk forward after the turn of the Shuangfeng Pavilion to the incense pavilion.

The so-called Xiangxiang Pavilion has only one garden, and a small five-wing bungalow is built against the wall of the courtyard of Yongcui House.

Passing through the Xiangkan, you will find the main entrance of Tokushin Temple.

With the red lacquer bright door of the third order and two doors, Qi Maosheng hesitated for a moment before walking in with Gu Xiyan.

Sure enough, it is much more magnificent than the pear orchard.

The wide courtyard, the seven main houses, the lush forest trees, although the red lanterns were also lit, but in the shadows, Gu Xiyan felt a little empty and cold.

They walked all the way, walked past the courtyard where Qi Yuzhi had an accident, walked out of Dexin Courtyard, and stood by the lotus pond, Gu Xiyan saw the seven-story Yu Nian Pavilion.

The octagonal eaves of the tower, hung with red lanterns, layer by layer, reflect half of the sky, more spectacular and brilliant than Chinese New Year's Eve.

Suddenly, Gu Xiyan suddenly understood.

It turned out that Qi Maosheng was the owner of this house and the master of this land, and because of him, all this came to life.

Looking at the tall and mighty Qi Maosheng beside him, Gu Xiyan had a sense of belonging for the first time.

Because of this person, this place has also become her home.
