Chapter 594： Jiangnan Zhaizi

Chapter 594 Jiangnan House

Chen Ningya got off the boat, got on the carriage, and went from the port to the bustling and prosperous street. The breath of Jiangnan came to her face. The prosperity was completely different from the capital. If you describe it as a woman, the capital is so extravagant. The high-ranking lady, Jiangnan is a gentle and beautiful, affectionate and graceful Xiaojiabiyu, each has its own beauty, and no one will let anyone else.

Chen Ningya watched with relish, Wen Youshan saw that many women with buns on the street went out without covering it, and simply lifted the curtain of the carriage to let Chen Ningya see.

"How is it? Do you feel that your trip is worthwhile?" Wen Youshan asked dotingly.

Chen Ningya nodded absentmindedly, "Jiangnan is really beautiful, but this kind of beauty can be seen slowly, the scenery is different at the four seasons, but where did you buy the house? Also, don't forget the formality!"

Wen Youshan nodded slightly and asked two questions with the driver.

The driver immediately replied: "Master, the house is in the area where the wealthy people gather in Fucheng, not far from here."

Said, the carriage turned a corner and left the bustling main street. The more you walked, the quieter the surrounding area, but the scenery was still the same. On the bluestone path, they could still see the arch bridge on the river next to it and the boats rowing quietly underneath. .

The carriage stopped at the entrance of a large mansion with high walls and grey tiles facing the water.

The driver said respectfully, "Master, Madam, we've arrived at the place. There are well-known families around here. You don't need to worry about security issues. More importantly, the Ke family is next door."

Chen Ningya and Wen Youshan both looked surprised.

Wen Youshan asked strangely, "Why don't I know about this?"

The driver explained in a low voice, "The grandfather of the country sent the younger ones over, and when they arrived in the south of the Yangtze River, there were people from the eldest grandfather to answer them. They spent the money, and the next door moved out."

Chen Ningya was at a loss, "The people of the eldest master are here, why doesn't he find someone himself, and wants us to come?"

The driver shook his head, "I don't know about this matter, but I heard from the person who responded that it was inconvenient for the eldest man to take action on Jiangnan's side. I don't know why it is small, but the small guess should be related to the many factions in Jiangnan."

"What do you mean?" Wen Youshan frowned deeply.

The driver had to briefly say, "Jiangnan is a land of fish and rice, with many merchants and rich people, so it is inevitable that some forces will target them. The water transportation alone has spawned several gangs. The relatively powerful ones are the Grain Gang and Jin Gang. As the name suggests, the grain gang is mainly engaged in the transportation of rice and grain, while the Jin gang is the transportation of cloth and water. In addition to these two major gangs, there are other small forces that do everything.

The situation on the water is so complicated, let alone on land, several big families in the south of the Yangtze River are fighting openly and secretly, and there are some Jianghu organizations, and the middle-class families also have protective forces, so this is a pool of muddy water, and the uncle is expected to develop here. The power is not easy to put on the bright side, so I just leave this matter to the grandfather of the country. "

Wen Youshan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly turned his head, swallowed his saliva and murmured to Chen Ningya, "A Ning, do you think we were tricked by Big Brother?"

Chen Ningya rolled her eyes at him, "It's not the first time you've been tricked, aren't you used to it?"

said, Chen Ningya jumped off the carriage and stood outside the gate of the mansion, she could still feel some inquiring eyes, but she didn't go into it, she raised her feet and entered the gate of the gate surrounded by guards.

As soon as he entered, the housekeeper arranged by Wen Youcheng respectfully handed over a deed, "Madam, this is the deed of the house, and the uncle specially told the junior to hand it over to you."

Chen Ningya took a look at it, and immediately became happy, and said to Wen Youshan, who was chasing after him: "It's not a loss for us to take this trip, at least we have earned such a big house, I guess this house is not worth tens of thousands of taels. Can't get down!"

Wen Youshan took a look at the house deed, his name was written on it, and the corners of his mouth could not help twitching, "So eldest brother is trying to use this house to appease me? It's too small! It's such a small house now. , I still don't pay attention!"

The housekeeper hurriedly flattered: "The grandfather of the country said it very well, you are the father of the country, and you are the hero who conquered the northern border. How can you like such a small house, all the big masters have said, this house is for you. For fun, there are 100,000 taels of silver notes here for you and your wife to eat, drink and have fun in Jiangnan.

There are many beautiful scenery in the south of the Yangtze River, and the delicious and fun things are even more dazzling. The small ones can’t finish it for three days and three nights, and the grandfather and his wife can feel it slowly. "

Wen Youshan felt much more comfortable, sat down carelessly, and said proudly: "We are here to find someone, not to play! But we can think about how to spend money!"

Chen Ningya rolled her eyes speechlessly and asked the housekeeper to take her around the house. I have to say that the house in Jiangnan is really beautiful, with pavilions and pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings, small bridges and flowing water, delicate flowers and tender grass. The rockery is made as real as it is, and there are miniature waterfalls in which koi play.

Walking under the eaves of the corridor, you can also see the colorful carved drawings under the eaves, which seem to be telling stories that have been passed down for a long time.

Lan Silk and Lan Ling looked straight, and murmured at the same time: "Madam, this garden is enough for us to play for a long time!"

Chen Ningya did not say anything, but she agreed in her heart.

Passing through the alley with the second entrance to the yard, you can see a large lotus pond. Some lotus flowers are almost dying. After passing through the veranda, you reach a path. There are two door openings on both sides, and there is a corner in front. It seems that this is the residence.

The housekeeper led Chen Ningya forward, and said as he walked, "The four courtyards on both sides are the guest courtyards, go inside, and go through a small garden to be the place where the female family lives."

When she got to the place the housekeeper said, Chen Ningya was amazed again. There are more than a dozen courtyards scattered here. Each courtyard has a two-story attic, which can be used for playing the piano and painting. The larger ones can also be used as a study room. There are many plantains, bamboos, pine and cypresses and tall trees unique to Jiangnan in the yard.

What shocked Chen Ningya even more was that many courtyards were separated by small ditches in the middle. These ditches were not deep, and there were still schools of fish in them.

Seeing her eyes widen, she couldn't help but ask, "Is this water alive?"

The housekeeper shook his head and smiled and said, "It's not really alive, it's just that all the water features in the whole house are connected, and the mechanism design has been made, so the water flows continuously, so it looks like it's alive."

Chen Ningya was silent for a while, before asking, "Tell me honestly, how much money did the eldest man spend to let this family move out."

You can’t live in a place like this without a certain amount of wealth. Since the people living here have status, why would they sell the house because of those petty profits.

The butler gave Chen Ningya a thumbs up in admiration, "Madam is really sharp! I noticed it at once. Since you asked, the little one didn't dare to hide it. This house is actually the eldest man's!"
