Chapter 2249 Gui Zi Juan Happy Life, Beautiful Era
After Yuanyang tidied up her clothes and hair and sat next to her, Feng Ziying took Yuanyang's hand and asked about the situation in the house over the past year.
There are inevitably some conflicts among the three houses in this house, but judging from yesterday's situation, the three houses get along fairly well.
Neither Shen Yixiu nor Xue Baochai are such narrow-minded people, and Daiyu is also sensible and took away Baoqin, the only possible source of trouble, and Miaoyu, the stupid young man, was also taken away by herself. Basically, it won't cause too much trouble.
"Everything is going well in the house. Grandma Shen and Second Grandma Bao are getting along very well. Aunt Lin... Third Grandma also gets along well with them. They have a small gathering every three days and a big gathering every fifth day. Sometimes they are together on the third day." Everyone in the house was taking turns doing things, drinking, composing poems, throwing pots and drawings, and occasionally playing mahjong and horses. Second Aunt You and Second Aunt Jia also came to join in the fun. Even the wife and concubines were very satisfied with how they were doing. …”
When Yuanyang heard Yuanyang talking about Second Aunt Jia, Feng Ziying didn't realize who it was for a while. She was stunned for a moment before she realized that she was Yingchun. Well, she was also his concubine. She was right to call her Second Aunt Jia, but it was just from Yuanyang's mouth. Even if I shout it out, it still feels a bit indescribable.
Yuanyang didn't move her hand back, and just let Feng Ziying hold her catkins and play with them, talking to herself: "In addition, Grandma Zhu, the third and fourth girls also come here often, and even occasionally play with Second Grandma Lian. They will also come back with Hongyu, and when they get together, it will be even more lively. The little maids who came from Rongguo Mansion said that they would feel like the grand scene in the Grand View Garden two years ago..."
There was a hint of sadness in Yuanyang's words, and there was also a hint of hope. Feng Ziying said, "Well, over at the Grand View Garden, I heard from Daiyu that the renovation has started again, and the progress is pretty fast. When? Can it be completed?"
Yuanyang bit her lips and thought for a moment, "A few days ago, I accompanied Second Mistress Bao and Miss Third to visit. The walls of Rongning Second Mansion have long been demolished and connected. Ningxixuan and Linshuixuan are adjacent to each other. As for the last one, I know that these two places are the most exquisite, so I kept them all, connecting the Lixiang Courtyard, Ningxi Pavilion and Linshui Pavilion in Rongguo Mansion to the city, and built a building on Qinfang River. Arched bridge,…”
Feng Ziying knew that the essence of Ningguo Mansion was in the area behind Huifang Garden. The house was not as good as Rongguo Mansion, but the water area behind Huifang Garden was huge, far greater than that of Rongguo Mansion.
Especially the area from Ningxixuan to Tianxiang Tower and Doufengxuan is rippling blue waves and picturesque. Standing on Dengxian Pavilion, you can see the lotus leaves and fields of water across Tianxiang Tower and Doufengxuan.
Now that the wall of the second mansion is opened, the Aojingxi Pavilion will be exposed, facing the entire huge lake water surface, while the Qingtang Cottage, Yuhuang Temple and the Female Taoist Alchemy Room have become a peninsula, going deep into the I came into the water, and I looked across the water from the Aojingxi Pavilion.
Feng Ziying had this idea at the time and left a sketch for Shen Yixiu, Xue Baochai and Lin Daiyu, telling them to use it as a reference when they started construction.
But when it comes to the complete opening of the walls of the two mansions, how to comprehensively plan the Linshui area to achieve the best results requires specialized craftsmen to plan and design, so Feng Ziying is not too restrictive, but only requires that it must be the best. It would be best if all the grandmothers and girls who had lived in Rong Ning's Second Mansion were satisfied.
Although Yuanyang described it in detail, it was difficult to understand without seeing it with her own eyes, so Feng Ziying just listened patiently to Yuanyang's introduction, thinking in her heart that she might still have to take the time to see it with her own eyes in the next two days.
After all, after he came back and had more children, the mansion was already a little crowded. Compared with the spacious scenery of Rongning Second Mansion, Fengcheng Hutong was indeed too narrow, and it couldn't be widened even if he wanted to.
"There are still two difficulties here. We have to wait until I come back to make a decision. First, if the gates of the second mansion are to be in accordance with my wishes, and the three bedrooms are all in one place, then there will only be one gate left, the small door and the corner door. It doesn’t matter, but which side of the gate should I choose? Secondly, Grandma didn’t have any objections to the renovation of the Grand View Garden. Grandma Bao Er and Yu San also went to see it. They both felt that it would be a pity if the changes were made at will, and they were just some illegal changes. I have made some modifications, and let the people from Long Jinwei come to see them. There are no problems, but in fact there are no major changes, so I still have to see the situation with my own eyes to make up my mind..."
In fact, Feng Ziying was not willing to make major changes to the Grand View Garden, especially the Tianxian Treasure Garden, which was the provincial villa, with its winding buildings, dazzling array of buildings, and grand view. It was really in line with his own wishes.
He roughly counted and found that there are three courtyards with more than three floors - Daguan Tower, Hanfang Pavilion, and Zhujin Pavilion. They are facing Qinfang Pavilion, Cuizhang and the gate of Daguanyuan across the Qinfang River.
There are more two-story buildings. The three connected courtyard buildings in the northeast and northwest corners behind are all two-story buildings. There are six in total. The three buildings in the northeast corner are named Wanghai Tower, Guanjiang Tower and Jiaxiu Tower, the northwest corner is named Tiaoyue Tower, Zhaixing Tower, and Yanyu Tower.
Coupled with the side courtyards on both wings, the Gu Ensiyi Hall in the middle, and the Jiayin Hall at the back, the name of this provincial villa cannot really be reflected, but it is a fairyland. Feng Ziying feels that it is more suitable, especially in the colorful city. Being able to live here is the real paradise.
One sentence made Yuanyang feel excited and happy, but also a little stressed, "Grandma Qin, Grandma Miao and the others..."
"If they want to go, that's fine, it depends on the situation." Feng Ziying didn't care, "But you must go, and you have to make a good plan for me, where the grandmothers will live, and how to allocate them, so as not to cause any unpleasantness. ”
This is also the place where Yuanyang is most worried and stressed. Although Baochai and Daiyu used to have residences in the Grand View Garden, such as Xiaoxiang Pavilion and Hengwu Garden, Feng Ziying said that even if they don’t leave the garden now, several grandmothers will have to live there. Move into the renovated provincial villa, and the eldest grandma has never lived in the Grand View Garden before. If she lives in it now, where to live, and whether to arrange a separate garden, all of this must be taken into account, otherwise there will be a slight difference. That was a storm.
Fortunately, the Grand View Garden is not small in scale, and now it also includes Huifang Garden on the Ningguo Mansion side. Together, the garden is big enough, there are enough buildings and courtyards, and there is enough space for relocation.
After thinking about it for a while, Yuanyang whispered: "How about this? I will go with you alone first, so that I can have a score in my mind first, and I will make a rough idea. I will help you with the advice. If you are so busy, everyone will go." Now, if there are differences of opinion and there are estrangements and disputes, that would not be beautiful."
Feng Ziying raised her eyebrows and thought about it for a while, then she felt that Yuanyang’s suggestion was the safest solution.
If a large number of people really go there, and they all have different opinions, it is not easy for me to take sides at that time. If I go first now, I can basically make a rough idea and give my opinions without waiting for the women to argue, so that the women can also It is difficult to create a rift in this life.
"Well, Yuanyang, you have thought more carefully. You and I will go there quietly in the afternoon without making any noise." Feng Ziying nodded.
“My slave, please call Ping’er and Jin Chuan’er as well.” Yuanyang thought for a while and said, “One more person can help me with the reference.”
Feng Ziying was startled and then immediately realized that Ping'er and Jin Chuan'er were with her and did not belong to any room. Girls like Qingwen, Zijuan, and Xiangling were not suitable. This girl was really attentive.
“That’s fine, just call Ping’er Jinchuan and we’ll set off after lunch.” Feng Ziying nodded in agreement.
Feng Ziying spent the whole morning with Tong Niang and Anlang, who was born in Yingchun.
Tong Niang is already over two and almost three years old. She is a lively and cute age. Feng Ziying naturally wants to accompany her when she comes back. She also brings many gifts to the little girl, which makes Tong Niang, who has been under Shen Yixiu's strict control, overjoyed. .
Finally, I was able to let myself go under the protection of my father. I could hear the little girl’s giggling voice echoing in the yard all morning.
Yingchun’s son Feng Ziying’s nickname was Anlang. He hoped that he would have a safe life. Yingchun also liked this nickname very much. As for the big name, he had to wait until his father came to pick him up.
This kid did indeed get the word An, and he was extremely quiet. Even when Feng Ziying, a "strange" person to him, was holding him, he didn't cry or make a fuss. He just turned his dark eyes and looked at Feng Ziying quietly. He seems to be very curious about his father.
He waited until he was hungry, then he opened his mouth and grunted a few times. When Yingchun opened his clothes and stuffed it into his mouth, he immediately closed his eyes and started sucking milk in a disciplined manner.
"This kid still understands the rules and knows not to look at anything inappropriate!" Feng Ziying laughed and touched Yingchun's swollen breasts, which were heavily filled with milk. "This is your dad's exclusive , it’s okay to suck, but no peeking!”
This sentence made Siqi and Xiuju next to Yingchun laugh. Yingchun also blushed and twisted her body a little shyly: "What are you talking about? I have enough milk, so I can breastfeed by myself." We all feed them by ourselves, and the wet nurse will help feed them at night."
"Yes, the girl feeds herself. The servant also said to hire an extra wet nurse, but the girl is not willing and thinks it is unnecessary." Siqi said carelessly: "It can be regarded as saving money for the house."
