Red makeup against the world

Chapter 91 Placement
In the north of the courtyard is the upper room, adjacent to the upper room, there is an ear room on the left and right sides, and there is a back room behind it.On both sides of the courtyard, there are east and west wing rooms, and there are corridors connecting the houses.In the middle of the courtyard, a large bluestone fish tank is placed. Several koi swim among the aquatic plants, which has the finishing touch and adds agility to the whole courtyard.

The south side is surrounded by the courtyard wall, and a small gatehouse is set up in the southeast direction, as the gate from the inner courtyard into the "Green Bamboo Garden", and the plaque is hung on the lintel.At the entrance, there is a screen wall directly opposite. Turn around the screen wall and enter the courtyard.Going to the left, between the west wing and the courtyard wall, there is a small cross courtyard, which is used as a kitchen.On the right side of the screen wall, there is an alley next to the east wing room. At the end of the alley, there is an east corner door, which can directly lead to the outside of the house, so that it is convenient for the mother-in-law and her servants to go out to buy.

The entire "Songxi Academy" has a square outer courtyard and a semicircular inner courtyard.Wrapping this semicircle is the back alley where servants of the Tu family lived.The Tu family's sons, housekeepers, and nuns all live here.In the past, people came in and out through the west corner gate.This east corner gate is specially for the servants of the Xu family to come in and out, and the stewards and servants of the Xu family naturally also live in this back alley.

Of course, whether it is the Tu family or the Xu family, the masters still go in and out through the main gate on the west side.Calculated in this way, "Green Bamboo Garden" is the furthest away from the gate.

Xu Wenyu was very excited when he saw the fish, lying on the fish tank, his eyes turned back and forth following the swimming of the koi.He waved to Xu Wanzhen and said, "Sister! Come and have a look. These fish are so beautiful!"

Seeing that Mrs. Xu was not in high spirits, Xu Wanzhen responded, "Yu'er, elder sister helps grandma into the room first, and I will accompany you to watch the fish later."

Hearing this, Xu Wenyu didn't even look at the fish, and ran over "thump-dump-thump", raised his face and asked nervously, "Is grandma tired? Are you feeling unwell?"

Seeing him so nervous, Mrs. Xu felt relieved, and tried to smile and said, "Don't worry, Yu'er, grandma is just a little sleepy, you go and play." The Xu family has a habit of taking a lunch break, and now it is Yin time, and the lunch break has already ended in normal times get up.

And today I arrived at Luoshui Wharf early in the morning, and took a carriage to "Songxi Academy", and the journey was tiring.In the morning, I met with the shopkeeper Yu to find out the whole story; at noon, I had to deal with Lin's, which was exhausting.After all, Mrs. Xu is an elderly person, and now she finally settles down, but her exhaustion surges up all of a sudden, and she is indeed a little sleepy.

Seeing that she looked tired, Yulu said: "Old Madam, the servants have packed up the upper room, but the luggage has not yet been placed. Why don't you take a rest first and pack it up when you get up?"

Mrs. Xu nodded, Xu Wanzhen helped her into the room, and said softly: "Grandmother has a good rest, let me arrange the living, how about it?"

"Okay. If I have the truth, I will not worry about it, and I will live a few more years." Mrs. Xu patted her hand and said with a smile.

Xu Wanzhen refused, and said: "Grandmother will live a long life."

While talking, Yulu called hot water, Biluo helped Mrs. Xu clean her face, and when she closed her eyes to rest, Xu Wanzhen gently backed out.

Standing at the door of the upper room, Xu Wanzhen looked at the yard.Perhaps because it is located in the outskirts of Beijing, although it is only a courtyard, it is spacious and bright.If it is placed in the capital, such a large area is made into a courtyard, which is simply extravagant and wasteful.

Taking a deep breath of fresh air, looking at the beautiful scenery in front of her, and Xu Wenyu playing lively in the courtyard, Xu Wanzhen has already fallen in love with this place.The fist at the side was clenched quietly, and he told himself: "The first goal: to go to Beijing, it has been completed. Next, no matter how difficult it is, I will make things better and better!"

Sang Zi stepped forward to report, and said: "Miss, the east and west rooms have been cleaned, how do you and the young master arrange?"

"Yu'er lives in the east wing, and Liu's mother waits on him, and then calls a caregiver over there. Spread my luggage and bedding in the west wing." Xu Wanzhen said as she walked, "The left ear room of the upper room is set up with a desk and changed into a warm pavilion. , the right side room was changed into a flower hall for receiving guests. You, Biluo, Yulu, and Madam Zheng all lived in the back room. The courtyard gate and the east corner gate must arrange women to watch the night, and lock them at Haishi. Don't ignore it. People, it is forbidden to drink, drink and gamble, and set up good rules. Once discovered, there will be no mercy."

Madam Zheng listened to her, seeing her clear thinking, well-organized, and reasonable arrangements, she secretly admired her.After going through these things, the young lady is really different. She is not yet 14 years old, and she has begun to look like a mistress in dealing with things.Xu Manzhen is still a few months older than Miss, and she still looks innocent.

In the palace, Madam Zheng met many young ladies of great families, and witnessed their great changes from young girls when they entered the palace in just one or two years.Either go through hardships and transform into a butterfly, or disappear in the palace without a sound.Although Xu Wanzhen's situation is not as cruel as those of the young girls in the palace, compared to the young ladies from a prosperous family, she has gone through several ups and downs. On her immature shoulders, she bears responsibilities that do not match her age.Today's Xu Wanzhen is so mature and sensible that it makes people feel distressed.

Xu Wanzhen stepped into the West Wing. The West Wing is the same as the East Wing. They both consist of three rooms, one bright and two dark.The middle one is the living room, and the two sides are bedrooms.Xu Wanzhen ordered Sangzi to spread the bedding in the bedroom to the north, and turn the bedroom to the south into a study. "Everyone is tired today, let's take a rest first. There is no rush to change the room, take your time."

Xu Wanzhen was lying on a newly made bed, and had just arrived at Tu's house, and there were many things to do.Ben just closed his eyes to rest his mind, never thought of falling asleep in a daze.When I woke up, it was already sunset.Xu Wanzhen was not fully awake yet, so she suddenly had a doubt about where she was.

Looking out through the tent, the afterglow shines into the window, coating the furnishings in the house with a hazy layer of gold.Time seemed to be frozen, and the room was quiet and beautiful.

Xu Wanzhen sat up and rubbed her forehead.That's right, not in Suzhou, not on a boat, we have already arrived in the capital.Only then did the mind gradually wake up.

Hearing the sound of her getting up, Sang Zi brought in hot water and cleaned her face. "The old lady woke up for a while, and when she heard that the young lady was still sleeping, she told her not to disturb you. After asking about the arrangement, she said that this is very good, and I will do as you said."

After applying a hot towel to her face, and having a good night's sleep in the afternoon, Xu Wanzhen felt full of energy.Said: "Later, my aunt will arrange for someone to bring dinner over. I don't need to go out of the yard. I just clean it up."

Sangzi braided her long hair, put on half-worn home clothes and a cloak, Xu Wanzhen took Sangzi with her, and walked to the upper room.

Before I went in, I heard Xu Wenyu's lively voice: "Grandma, those fish are so fun. As soon as I passed by, they surrounded them. As soon as I left, they scattered. There is one with a red head and a white body. fish, and ate my hand."

Seeing Xu Wanzhen coming in, Mrs. Xu smiled and said, "Look at this monkey, we are all resting, but he actually watched the fish all afternoon."

Xu Wanzhen took off the cloak, handed it to Sangzi, and said with a smile: "It's good not to sleep, so as to save you from missing sleep at night. Yu'er is curious at this age, and seeing more fish will make your eyes better."
