The general of Cezhou is not as big as Sui'an City, but the layout is very reasonable, there are many less mountains and rivers and ponds, and most of the places are wide and bright.

One is because most of the people who lived here before were Gu family men, and they didn't need these bells and whistles, and the other was that Cezhou couldn't find any good landscaping masters, so it has been so deserted.

The eldest aunt and the second aunt rested in the house for the time being, but Du Jingyi called Jin'er and followed her all the way to take a look, after all, she was going to marry in the future, and it was good to learn more and see more.

The courtyard of the four entrances, with two cross-courtyards on the left and right, the cross-courtyard is not big, but there are many houses, which seems a little crowded.

When Du Jingyi and his party walked to the East Cross Courtyard, the sun was hanging high, and the inside and outside of the room were warm and comfortable, so she had an idea in her heart.

"In the past, we built a conservatory, this east courtyard does not have to be arranged, look at the day is big, just suitable for children to live, and there is no need to be separated from each other, just make six rooms side by side, and then build a row of cover rooms for the little maids in the back, boys do not need to be squeamish, and the furnishings in the house are simpler, and the atmosphere is elegant."

"The outside of the yard is also dominated by pines and cypresses, and the method of changing the scenery does not need to be used here, it is best to build a large pool separately, and supply more hot water, and the brothers have to wash every time they come back, so it is appropriate."

Hearing Du Jingyi's arrangement, Steward He wrote them all down.

If they came to deal with it in advance, I was afraid that it would be arranged like the general's mansion in Sui'an City, but Madame's idea was more realistic, which they hadn't thought of.

Jin'er held Du Jingyi's arm and said after hearing this.

"Auntie's method is good, but if a few brothers are about to get married, this yard will not be easy to live in, and it will have to be changed again when the time comes, isn't it troublesome?"

Seeing this, Du Jingyi smiled, and nodded her nose with confidence.

"What are you afraid of, I'll look at it when I come, this neighborhood doesn't look like a place where someone lives, and when we clean up the general's mansion, I'll send someone to ask, if the price is right, just take it together, don't say it's their brothers who have a family, that is, you get married and want to come back to live, and you will also buy a separate yard!"

"My aunt is really generous, no wonder my uncle is obedient to you, it seems that it is still a great benefit of money!"

Jin'er spoke a little bit, but Du Jingyi was very happy to hear it.

There is such a girl in the family, she doesn't want to raise Jin'er too formally, her daughter's family has been at home for more than ten years, if she can't live a more wanton life at this time, I'm afraid that there will be no chance in the future.

Therefore, he said quite proudly.

"That's natural, there is a lot of money in this hand, and the confidence should be enough, you can buy what you like and want, you don't have to reach out to others, you can live a comfortable life, and when you settle down, your aunt will take you to see the shop, this shop is to have some skills."

"Thank you, aunt!"

Jin'er smiled sweetly, and Du Jingyi took her around the West Cross Courtyard again.

It's a little colder here than in the East Cross Courtyard, and even the light is not so good, because there is a century-old tree here, and the shade of the tree has not been repaired much, so it is very shading.

Du Jingyi looked around the tree, and felt that it was a pity to cut it, so he asked Steward He to find a landscaping master, and the two of them felt that they had simply given up the house here, and all of them were opened up as a place to cool off in summer.

To make a row of terraces, one is that the summer banquet guests are spacious and decent, and the other is to dig a new piece of land to draw water to make a pool, and with feng shui, the cornucopia is set up here, which is also a rare meaning of making money.

Seeing Du Jingyi's drastic transformation, everyone was also surprised and admired.

"But then, won't there be enough room to live in?"

Mama Dou raised her doubts, Du Jingyi smiled, pointed to the main courtyard and said.

"I've seen it before, there are two entrances in the backyard, both of which are five bright and two dark patterns, and there are two wings on the left and right, and the courtyard of me and the general lives in the two of us, and it is enough to separate his study and my director's room, and the eldest aunt, the second aunt and Jin'er live in the courtyard, it should be no problem, and then move when the newly bought yard is repaired."

Du Jingyi's arrangement is very proper, although the five bright rooms are not as spacious and comfortable as one person and one courtyard, but they are lively and warm, they don't have to settle here for the rest of their lives, maybe they will return to Jinling City in the next few months, so it doesn't matter.

Around the front hall and backyard, Du Jingyi said that a few places should be greatly changed, as for the rest, it is simple, just remove the furniture.

So after Du Jingyi arranged it, Steward He and Mama Dou ordered it to go down.

The little maids in the family, the mother-in-law, the maids, and more than 30 tiger soldiers brought by Ni Yang to help, started together, and the entire general's mansion underwent earth-shaking changes in an instant.

The east and west across the courtyard are going to be moved, so first clean up the main courtyard.

Almost two hours later, the furnishings in the house were completely new, and when Gu Shaoyu came back with the children, he was quite surprised to see that he almost didn't recognize it.

"Madame, where did these things come from?"

"The general forgot, Cezhou is the place where my Du family has pressed the heavy color, if these things can't be found, then won't I, the Du girl, be able to get around?"

As soon as she spoke, Gu Shaoyu understood.

They brought a lot of luggage, which Gu Shaoyu knew, but it was not so much that they even piggybacked on these large pieces of furniture, so the most direct thing was to buy it from merchants in Cezhou.

But it's not easy to collect so many things for a while, not to mention that it's still properly packed, and if you look closely, which of these furniture is not exquisite and ingenious.

Therefore, I want to know that it is prepared in advance.

"At the end of last year, the concubine sent a letter to Cezhou, asking the shopkeeper to find some good furniture, originally thinking that if Vice General Ni could arrange it, then these furniture would be bought, but it was still used."

"It's still Madame's last resort."

"But right now, the east and west across the courtyard will be greatly changed, and the concubine wants to change the west cross courtyard first, and it will be almost summer when it is done, even if the children are moved over to deal with it for two months, it will not be cold, and they will move over when they are all done."

"Why bother so much, a few hairy boys can get away with a few beds, let Ni Yang take them back to the barracks to arrange them later, if Mrs. wants to change it, let's do it together, how to fix it, come carefully, you don't have to rush to work."
