Feng Yibo left all the construction matters here to Uncle Chen.
He had someone make a sketch and took a car to the Lin Mansion.
I met Lin Ruhai first and had two cups of tea.
Then, he smiled and mentioned the matter of building a house.
"Uncle, I bought a piece of land outside the north gate a few days ago."
As soon as Lin Ruhai heard this, he roughly understood his plan.
He smiled and nodded:
"It's time to prepare. Isn't the eldest daughter of the Xue family getting haircut soon?"
Feng Yibo would not deny it, and responded with a smile:
"At the beginning of the next year, there was just enough time to build a house for a year."
As he spoke, he took out the drawings, spread them out, and said with a smile:
"The house and garden have been planned. I asked someone to find the famous Shanziye in the city, Mr. Hu."
"This is the drawing he helped plan, and now the ground has been broken."
Lin Ruhai picked it up, took a casual look at it, and said with a smile, "It looks pretty big."
"The land in the outer city is cheap, so I bought a four-mile-long one. It's more spacious for more people."
Feng Yibo said modestly after hearing this, and then said:
"The east and west main courtyards here are prepared for the second bedroom of the big house."
Lin Ruhai took a look and roughly understood.
Seeing him smiling and nodding, Feng Yibo said again:
"In addition to the main courtyard, I will also order the construction of several other courtyards, all of which are independent from the outside and connected with the mansion."
This was inspired by Lixiangyuan, and Feng Yibo specially planned several similar ones.
It is a courtyard specially set aside for Lin Ruhai, Li Shouzhong, Aunt Xue, etc.
You Lao Niang has also considered it.
"There is also a nunnery in the garden."
Feng Yibo added something before speaking out his thoughts and said:
"These are specially reserved for my uncle and aunt."
"Then uncle won't have to endure the pain of separation between father and daughter. We can live together and it will be more lively."
Lin Ruhai smiled when he heard this, neither agreeing nor rejecting.
He just said with a happy face: "Yibo, you are serious."
After chatting for a while about the situation in the DPRK, Feng Yibo came over to the back house.
Miaoyu and Daiyu had already received the letter and were waiting for Aunt Lin.
The three of them were chatting to relieve their boredom when Feng Yibo arrived.
After the ceremony, the two sides exchanged a few words.
Feng Yibo mentioned buying land to build a house.
As he spoke, he took out the drawings.
He unfolded it on the table and began to tell it to Daiyu and Aunt Lin with great interest.
"Auntie, two sisters, come here to see us."
He pointed to the bottom of the design drawing and said:
"This side to the south is the porch, this is the main entrance, and this side is the corner door."
Afraid that the three of them would not be able to understand the drawings, I briefly explained the location first.
Then he drew along the drawing and said:
"After entering, there is a mountain screen wall, which is the same as the one back home in Jinling."
Daiyu smiled knowingly when she heard this.
This was obviously meant for her, as she was the only one who had been to the old house in Jinling.
"Behind this are three large arches, and the middle one leads to the main hall."
There's nothing much to say about the main hall, it's just a corridor and five halls.
After speaking, he moved his fingers to both sides and said:
"The doors on both sides lead to the veranda after entering. Walk along it and there will be a screen after passing the Yimen."
The pattern on both sides is symmetrical, and the rest is exactly the same.
"After going around, there is a courtyard with five small halls and rooms. After passing through, there is the main courtyard..."
Feng Yibo briefly talked about the layout of the main courtyard, and finally added intentionally or unintentionally:
"The big house is on the east side."
After hearing this, Daiyu's face suddenly turned red.
Miaoyu looked at her with a half-smile, but didn't say anything joking.
After all, she also has her small courtyard over there.
"Amitabha."
On the contrary, Aunt Lin next to her looked at Daiyu's shy look, smiled and recited a Buddhist chant.
Although the layout of the main courtyard has been introduced.
But fearing that Daiyu might not understand, Feng Yibo added:
"The main courtyard here has a standard layout. I won't explain it further. It is similar to the courtyard of the old lady in Rong Mansion."
Put it this way, it is more vivid.
After all, Daiyu has lived with Old Taijun for a long time, so she is naturally familiar with the layout.
And the fact that it can be called a standard pattern shows that it is reasonable and practical.
Otherwise it wouldn’t be widely circulated.
Naturally, Feng Yibo would not be unique in this matter.
Just like buying a house, if there is a standard house type, you must buy a standard house type.
It's the kind of boxy and regular one.
The bedrooms should be in the four corners, and the living room should be in the south.
If it is the north, you should also pay attention to transparency from north to south.
Don't buy any new type of apartment, it will definitely not be as practical and comfortable as the standard one.
This is the author’s advice of blood and tears.
After talking about the main courtyard, Feng Yibo continued:
"Behind the main courtyard, there is a corner gate. From here, you can reach the garden at the back."
Said here.
Feng Yibo glanced at Miaoyu first, then turned to Aunt Lin and said:
"Going out of the corner gate of the east courtyard is a nunnery. My aunt will live here when the time comes, and it will be convenient for Miaoyu to take care of her."
This time it was Miaoyu's turn to blush.
Even the nunnery was repaired, and she had no reason to be dissatisfied.
"Amitabha."
When Aunt Lin next to her saw this, she glanced at Miaoyu, then smiled and recited the Buddha's name.
I don’t know why, but I feel full even though I haven’t eaten the bird’s nest today.
"Let me keep it a secret for the specific situation in the garden, so I won't tell you about it yet."
Feng Yibo rolled up the drawings and said with a smile:
"When the garden is finished in the future, my aunt and two sisters will have a personal experience of it."
Daiyu nodded when she heard this. Although she was a little shy, there were no outsiders, so she said:
"Brother Feng's words are very true. If we say everything now, the visit to the garden will be a little less amazing."
Miaoyu spoke straightforwardly, and when she heard the words she said slightly resentfully:
"I think the half-sentence of the Feng family brother's words is really appetizing."
Feng Yibo just smiled when he heard this, and just as he was about to speak, Aunt Lin over there recited another Buddhist chant.
"Amitabha, you are so determined, but you still care about me, an old nun."
"Where did Auntie's words come from?"
When Feng Yibo heard this, he waved his hands repeatedly and said:
"My aunt also knows that I lost both my parents when I was young, and it is for this reason that I love fun the most!"
Then he repeated what he had just said to Lin Ruhai and said:
"In addition to the main courtyard, I also ordered the construction of several other courtyards, which are independent of the main courtyard and connected with the mansion."
small book booth
Speaking of this, he looked longingly and said:
"When the time comes, I'm going to take over my mentor, my master's wife, my uncle, and my aunt!"
It seems that thinking about this scene makes me feel happy.
Feng Yibo smiled sincerely and said: "At that time, our whole family will feel like home!"
Although there was no fanning, the three women present were deeply moved.
Although Daiyu said nothing, she thought of the days when she and her father lived in the Feng family's old house in Jinling.
It is so indifferent, healthy and leisurely.
Miaoyu didn't say anything either.
She is a little luckier than Feng Yibo, but she is ten times more withdrawn than Feng Yibo.
Is that what home feels like?
Looking at Feng Yibo's expression, Miaoyu suddenly yearned for him.
"Namo Amitabha, Namo Amitabha, Namo Amitabha..."
Even Aunt Lin clasped her hands together and chanted the Buddha's name in a low voice.
It's as if I'm afraid of being disturbed by these.
Can teach a female literary youth like Miaoyu.
Even if you become a monk, you will still be sentimental.
