Wishing You Eternal Happiness Chapter 854: :Yuyuan
After Yu Youyao arrived in Xiangping, he should live in Prince Wu Mu's Mansion to ensure everything was taken care of. However, none of the Xie Mansion family wanted to be separated from Yu Youyao.
Yu Youyao's current status is not suitable for them to live under the same roof.
King Wu Mu arranged two adjacent houses, which was also a compromise.
Yu Youyao doesn’t want to be separated from Xie Mansion. She doesn’t get along with Xie Mansion like she did with her grandmother in Yu Mansion.
But a real family doesn't actually need to bother to please. They care and respect each other and take care of each other's mood. They are naturally an inseparable family.
Ms. Zheng said warmly: "It's been a hard journey, so I'll go back and rest first. In the evening, the whole family will have a reunion dinner, which can be regarded as a blessing for you."
Yu Youyao has a filial piety, and it is not easy to hold a banquet at home.
The two houses are built on a hilltop, with a verandah running through the mountain in the middle, like a "green belt", dividing the two houses into two, like a pair of fishes.
There are ancient trees and sparse trees on the verandah across the mountain, and strange rocks stand out in various shapes. There are wild vines and unknown wild flowers growing on the rocks.
A side door was opened between the two houses. After passing through the side door, Yu Youyao saw a half-person-high green stone standing at the door of the opposite house. The stone naturally presented a scene of lakes, mountains and lush greenery.
The word "Yu Yuan" is engraved on it with dancing dragons and phoenixes.
Yu Youyao looked at these two familiar words intently, and his eyes suddenly became wet.
Zheng smiled: "This piece of Laoshan green stone has the texture of jade, and its color is semi-transparent and unclear. Under different lighting, it will reflect different scenery. It is very strange. King Wu Mu is here. The house was named [Yu Yuan], and the characters on it were carved by him himself."
Female households could not be established in the Zhou Dynasty, and women could not live alone without their relatives.
The word "Yu Garden" seemed to break the shackles imposed on her at this moment. She could not live alone without her relatives, but she could enjoy her only house and live as she pleased.
Yin Huaixi always understood her, so Yu Youyao chuckled: "Yu Yuan, it's pretty good."
Zheng sent Yu Youyao to the next door and came back.
Yu Youyao was in high spirits and didn't care that the injury on her foot was not healed yet, so she wanted to take a look around the house.
Aunt Xu couldn't resist her. Thinking that she had just walked a long way, she ordered the servant to carry the carriage: "Let Dongmei accompany you for a walk. It's a tiring journey. I'll go to the small kitchen to help you prepare medicine." Take a bath and prepare some food."
The layout of the courtyard is based on the image of the terrain. A jade-belt stream winds and twists, which is deep and secluded. The promenade follows the mountains and winds into the pavilion, with mountains and rocks reflecting it.
It reveals the simplicity, simplicity, naturalness and unrestrainedness.
Walking around, we arrived at the main courtyard.
Looking at the place where the plaque was originally hung on the gate in front of the courtyard was still empty, Yu Youyao suddenly said: "There are nine moves in the world, which show nine virtues. The nine moves are Jiu Shao, so we changed the name to Jiu Shao Yuan."
From now on, it is her territory that truly belongs to her.
Dongmei supported the young lady and walked around the main courtyard.
Dongmei arrived early and introduced: "The layout of the main courtyard is somewhat similar to that of the Yishui courtyard. His Highness personally found powerful craftsmen and renovated it according to the requirements. His Highness said that the young lady is used to living like this. If you live in the same house, you can feel more comfortable."
As Yu Youyao walked, she saw pebbles of various sizes laid on the ground. The colors, shapes, and patterns of the pebbles were ever-changing, showing ever-changing patterns.
Dongmei explained: "Xiangping is damp and bitterly cold. His Highness is worried that the young lady will not be able to live there. Anshan is rich in bluestone, but bluestone is not as heat-resistant as pebbles. His Highness took the initiative and paved the courtyard with large and smooth sea pebbles. Sea pebbles absorb moisture." To ward off the cold, burn the earth dragon in winter. It not only resists heat, but also conducts heat. In summer, sprinkle some water on the ground to relieve the heat and keep it warm in winter and cool in summer."
There are fewer large sea pebbles, and the largest ones can reach more than thirty feet (about ten meters).
The yard occupies a large area, and polishing sea pebbles is difficult. It will never be completed in just three months. I think Yin Huaixi arranged for people to make preparations early in the morning.
It really took a lot of thought.
Dongmei supported Yu Youyao and finally stopped under the old elm tree in the courtyard.
Coincidentally, this is also a purple elm tree, which is older than the one in Xie's Mansion. It has entangled roots, like a giant dragon entrenched, with strong diagonal poles, circling upward, and a green sky above it like clouds. , like layers of green clouds spit out by the "dragon".
Unconsciously, Yu Youyao thought of the old elm tree that grew up with her mother in the Yishui Courtyard: "Was this purple elm planted here from the beginning?"
Dongmei nodded: "Exactly."
The purple elm tree was already full of leaves. Yu Youyao couldn't help but smile and said: "I'll let Aunt Xu make elm leaf pie another day. When the elm money grows up, I can also make elm money egg pancakes."
The main room is covered with exquisite velvet carpets, and the furnishings in the room are similar to those of the Yishui Garden. In addition, a heated kang, a kang table, and a fireplace built with pebbles are added.
Yu Youyao took a medicinal bath to wash away the fatigue of the journey, and suddenly felt a sense of stability that she had not seen for a long time.
Aunt Xu brought lunch.
In addition to light and warm medicinal porridge, eggs, mushrooms, etc., we also prepared cold elm leaves and golden and crispy elm leaf pie.
The fresh elm leaves taste extremely fresh, with a little sweetness, which is a very simple and natural taste.
It’s cold in the north, so wooden beds are not available, and most people sleep on kang beds, which looks crude.
Considering that Yu Youyao was used to the Qiangong Babu bed, Yin Huaixi built a Qiangong bed house around the Kang bed, which was no different from the Qiangong Babu bed where she usually slept. The wood is not as moisture-resistant and comfortable as elm, so the materials used are old purple elm.
The kang bed is covered with a jade blanket woven from jade pieces.
Feng Dian slept in the open for several days, and Yu Youyao was inevitably a little tired, so she took a nap.
When I woke up ~IndoMTL.com~ it was already time.
Chunxiao helped Yu Youyao wash up: "Uncle Sun and Butler Wen from Prince Wu Mu's Mansion are here."
Yu Youyao said quickly: "When did Uncle Sun come here? Why didn't you wake me up?" She thought, and then asked: "The housekeeper of Prince Wu Mu's Mansion is named Wen? But he was the old man who used to be with the old princess?"
The old princess’s maiden name is Wen.
Dongmei picked up a green brocade tangled round-necked coat with large sleeves and came over. After hearing this, she said: "Uncle Sun has just come here. Please ask the servants not to disturb the princess. As for Butler Wen, he used to belong to the old princess." As a companion, I have the trust of His Highness. Earlier when Yu Yuan was renovated, it was also Wen Guan who helped with the renovation inside and outside the house."
Yu Youyao asked about Butler Wen, then got up and went into the side room to change clothes.
Xiangping is relatively cold, so the clothes should be thicker. A top with a round neck and big sleeves, as long as the calf, is paired with an eight-panel pleated skirt. Two or three inches of the skirt are exposed, and one or two inches below the skirt is decorated with a stripe. The exquisite and complicated lace, used as a presser foot, moves like water patterns, rolling delicate waves.
