Chapter 607
"It's not far away. It's on Nanchi Street. If my daughter wants to see it, we can go there anytime."

Uncle Liang said, raised his finger and pointed forward,

"Go out from here and take a bus for two more stops. Even if you walk, it will take half an hour at most, four to 10 minutes,"

"It's really not far away. Uncle Liang will go home for dinner first. Just come and find me after you finish eating. Let's go and have a look together. We'll talk if it's appropriate."

This kind of opportunity is very rare, it would be a pity if Yao Suqiu missed it.

As far as she knows, as long as there are courtyard houses on Nanchi Street and Beichi Street, they will exist in the future.

Now that she heard about it today, she can't justify it if she doesn't act.

Even if it's a bit ostentatious, I admit it.

"Success, uncle will come to see you after dinner."

After making an agreement with Uncle Liang, Yao Suqiu went back to her own yard, seeing that the weather was fine, she moved the tea table to the center of the yard.

Burn a pot of tea with the gas stove, sit in the yard and enjoy this leisure time.

The winter sun shines on the body, which is warm and not hot at all.

The temperature was maintained at two o'clock in the noon, and it was still cold afterwards.

It is said that the water quality in Kyoto is highly alkaline, which is most suitable for making jasmine tea.

Under the impact of hot water, the courtyard is full of jasmine fragrance.

After two cups of scented tea, there was a knock on the door,
"Please come in, Mr. Liang, just made tea."

"No need, the uncle is here after dinner, let's go and have a look when the weather is good."

Uncle Liang looked at the tea table placed in the yard, and the newly dug soil by the wall. The surroundings were neatly tidied up, and he looked popular.

"My daughter is really hardworking, and the yard is well taken care of. It's different when people live here and no one lives here."

Yao Suqiu followed his gaze and explained with a smile,
"I'm going to plant a bunch of roses in that corner. I'll go to the flower market to look for them in spring. I hope I can match the colors."

"It's good to plant flowers, and it's also a scene with the purple bamboo next to the screen wall."

I don't know if it's because of living at the root of the imperial city, no matter whether you have money or not, you can speak a few words in vernacular.

Uncle Liang strolled around the yard with his hands behind his back for a while, and after Yao Suqiu tidied up a bit, the two walked through the small alleys and took a shortcut to Nanchi Street.

Sure enough, after half an hour, the two of them had already reached Nanchi Street.

The houses here are all lined up in rows, each covering a large area.

Even the courtyard walls are more than two feet high, especially the corner rooms next to the walls, which are all small two-story attics.

If people in the yard want to see outside, they can just stand on the attic. People on the street want to see the situation in the yard, but there are no doors.

Walking along Nanchi Street, only 100 meters away, the two are now in front of a red painted gate.

On both sides of the gate tower, there are also two bluestone lions squatting, about the size of a three-month-old dog.

Yao Suqiu still knows this, the feudal court has regulations, how big the official is and how big the town house beast is.

There are also some officials who are not even qualified to swing beasts.

Fortunately, the Qing Dynasty perished a long time ago. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, houses could be bought and sold at will, and status didn't matter, as long as you had money.

"This is the one. Most of the houses in this area were built during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. They are definitely old antiques, but the quality is also high."

In front of the gate, it is spacious enough for two cars to pass at the same time.

Moreover, there is also a screen wall outside the gate, which echoes the screen wall inside the gate. According to the ancients' particularity, this arrangement should have something to say.

But from the outside, this yard is of a higher standard than her previous yard.
