After dressing up as a stepmother, I transformed the whole family into working in the fields

Chapter 640 Yongtongfang

 It turns out that money is really useful. Qin Yao and his family safely passed the identity check and entered the city smoothly.

Stepping out of the long corridor, the first thing that caught the eye of the family of eight was a straight and wide road leading directly to a majestic palace - Ziwei Palace.

A Wang, the only one who knew something about the capital, became the introductory tour guide. Pointing to the tall palace that surprised the whole family, he explained:

“That is the Ziwei Palace, the tallest building in the city. It is the palace where His Majesty and all the civil and military officials go to court to discuss matters. All major affairs in the world are delivered to the emperor through this gate by the chief officials from various places.”

"There are 112 cities in the capital, as well as four major cities in the east, west, south and north. It is bounded by the Yang River in the city under the Ziwei Palace. Within Hanoi are the residences of saints, princes and ministers in the palace, and outside the river are the residences of hundreds of officials and common people in the court. "

The family of eight walked all the way, watching and listening, and felt that the capital city was so big that it was impossible to see the head at a glance. When I looked up, I saw that there were basically three-story high-rise buildings with cornices, carved beams and painted columns, and even the doors and windows were exquisite. Like a work of art.

Occasionally, you will see a few very prominent high-rise buildings with fairy bridges erected on them. One high-rise building is connected to another high-rise building. People come and go on them, and their clothes are elegant and fairy-like, just like the immortals in the heavenly palace.

The architecture here is simply two extremes from that of Zijin Mansion. Two-story buildings are rare in Zijin Mansion, and most of the houses are simple and grand in ancient style.

Three-story buildings can be seen everywhere in Kyoto, especially on the main commercial streets. There are tall buildings on both sides, beautifully decorated. Each building has its own characteristics. The paint is mainly bright, which is very eye-catching. It really is like a hundred flowers blooming. a feeling of.

The beauty of the world should all be concentrated in the main street of Beijing. You don’t need to go to Jiangnan or Mobei to see the cultural characteristics of various places.

The four Dalang brothers and sisters looked at each other and were stunned. Walking among the bustling crowd, for the first time, they felt that the word "all living beings" in the book was so accurate.

Mixed into the crowd in Kyoto, they only feel that they are one of the countless living beings, so insignificant that if they slow down a little, they will be overwhelmed by the crowd.

It wasn't until we walked out of the main road and headed to Fangshi in the southeast that we occasionally saw some small courtyards with two floors and one floor. The clothes of the people walking on the street gradually changed from gorgeous and eye-catching to simple and simple. Only then did the four brothers and sisters have this unique style. This place still has a sense of reality in the human world.

 The entire capital city, with many Hu people in the west, is a gathering place for foreign guests.

 The north is at the feet of the Zhenzhen Emperor. The farther north the market becomes, the more expensive it becomes. It is where the palaces of ministers and princes and princesses are located.

There are many merchants in the south of the city, which is the most prosperous place in Kyoto. Shops, restaurants and food establishments are everywhere.

 East City, which is close to Nan City, is where ordinary people live. In the eyes of the nobles, those who live in the southeast city do not need to be taken seriously.

 There is everyone in Southeast Xiangfang City, and all three religions and nine streams are here.

But in the southeastern part of the city, there are different levels of classification. Those who live in the southeast corner are wealthy merchants, while those who live in the south corner are low-class poor people who are still struggling to make ends meet.

Those who live in Dongxiangfang City are either government officials or minor officials in the capital. Anyway, farmers, businessmen, and scholars each occupy a corner, and no one will hinder the other on weekdays.

 Chin Feng's house is in Yongtongfang. This place is wonderful. It is located in the southeast, next to the east city wall.

There is a "Tongmen" there. Although it is far away from the main city of Beijing, it is very convenient to enter and exit the city.

The road to the capital was unfamiliar to them for the first time. Qin Yao's family of eight entered the city through the main gate and walked across the entire capital. It took them a full hour to arrive.

In fact, if you go through the small corner gate called Tongmen, you can enter Yongtongfang in less than a quarter of an hour after entering the city.

Among a family of eight, Awang is considered half a native of the capital, but even Awang has never been to such a remote city.

He said: "Those fugitives who are evading arrest will not hide in a place like Yongtongfang where no ghosts come."

But to be honest, the houses here are indeed the most cost-effective. You can buy a two-bedroom house at a relatively reasonable price, which is also a single-family house. Qin Feng’s house is easy to find. If you ask anyone in Yongtongfang, they can immediately point out the location of the ‘Qin Mansion’.

 There is no other reason than that this is the only house with an attic among the bungalows in Yongtongfang.

The carriage stopped in front of the two-entry gate of the only building with an attic. Looking at the surrounding bungalows with broken walls and leaky tiles, Liu Ji raised a sincere question:

“My uncle bought a house here, aren’t he afraid of being robbed?”

As Nga Wang got off his horse, he explained expressionlessly: "Just take care of the little officials in charge of this area."

To put it bluntly, if the money is in place, everything can be easily done.

In Qin Yao's eyes, Yongtong Lane is a little off, but it is still several blocks away from the really chaotic gathering place of three religions and nine streams, so it is a quiet place.

Moreover, it is right under the east wall. Once something big happens in the city, the city defense is always the first to respond and the fastest to prepare.

Even if you have to escape, there is a door leading directly out of Beijing, which is definitely the fastest escape route.

 It can be seen that Qin Feng had certain considerations in choosing this place.

Under the expectant eyes of the family, Qin Yao took out the key and opened the blue door of the Qin Mansion that had been closed for half a year.

The wooden bearing rotates slowly, making a heart-wrenching creaking sound, and a safety wall first comes into view.

The smell of dust that had been uninhabited for a long time hit her face. Qin Yao flapped her hands and was about to step into the door. Liu Ji couldn't wait to rush in first.

Then, the mansion he was full of expectations for did not appear. The front yard was not even as big as the front yard of his Liujia Village.

 It is a two-entry house with the main door opening on the right side. When you walk in from the main door, there is a protective wall on the front and a small wing on the left and right sides, which is where the concierge receives reception and caretakes the courtyard.

 Go around the parapet to enter the main courtyard.

Opposite the main courtyard is a hall, with two rooms on the left and right of the hall. Pass through a corridor from the corner doors on the left and right, with the warehouse on the left and the kitchen on the right.

 Continuing further in, we reach the second courtyard, which looks much larger than the front courtyard. There are five or six rooms and a two-story small attic. At the bottom of the attic is a waterless rockery.

It can be seen that Qin Feng has not lived there much. The furniture and beds here look like no one has used them, and they are bare without any fabrics or vegetation.

Siniang saw the attic at a glance, ran to Qin Yao and asked excitedly: "Aniang, I want to live in the attic, is it okay?"

Qin Yao was still supervising Awang and Yin Le to move their luggage. After hearing this, she simply asked everyone to stop what they were doing and gather in the front yard.

“It’s getting late, let’s allocate the rooms first, get some food and rest, and we’ll arrange anything tomorrow,” Qin Yao said.

Everyone had no objections and waited expectantly for her to assign a room.

Liu Ji ignored his daughter's wary eyes and winked at Qin Yao crazily, "Attic, attic, madam, I want attic!"
