Zhuangzi is already overgrown with weeds, and vines have wrapped around the walls. The breeze blows, revealing the mottled wall coverings. Inside the fallen wall coverings, the green bricks are also covered with moss.
Further up, the blue-black tiles were covered with countless layers of dust, and there were even weeds growing on them, blowing in the wind.
Walking forward, pushing aside the weeds at the door, you can see the steps covered with moss.
The door lock had been rotting for a long time, and it broke with a little force. When the door was pushed open, there was only a "squeak" sound, and the scene in the yard was revealed to everyone.
The courtyard is overgrown with weeds, and the paint on the pillars on both sides of the corridor has peeled off, making it look a bit shaky. The wooden chairs and handrails leaning against the courtyard on both sides of the corridor are also very old, and many places have long since decayed.
The corridor was covered with dust, wasps had drilled many holes in the ground, and some of the tiles overhead were rotten. Wisps of light fell from the holes, and the dustmen held hands and danced in the light and shadow.
Everyone walked around the corridor and came to the main entrance. The window leaves of several main rooms also fell down, and some only had one or two window leaves left, hanging precariously on the window coffins, still barely holding on.
The paint has long lost its original color and has become decayed and old over time.
The door of the main hall of the main house was taken away by someone unknown. Inside the main house, the ground was a mess, with pits and holes. The roof was full of holes. Wisps of light beams fell from the holes, illuminating people's faces in spots. In the corners,
The spider lurking in the cobweb seemed to have noticed someone coming and sneaked into another corner.
Everyone couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. At first, they thought they could get a house for free, but now it seems that this place is uninhabitable at all.
"This place is not bad. It's bigger than our original yard, isn't it?" Seeing that everyone was not very interested, Ye Chuqiu said, "It's for free anyway, don't give it up, right?"
"Yes, it would have cost hundreds of taels of silver to build this yard. This is all good wood." Lin Dahu followed Ye Chuqiu and looked around. When he saw Ye Chuqiu speaking, he also followed suit.
"Look."
Ye Chuqiu found another collapsed rockery in the yard. She walked over and discovered that the area around the collapsed rockery, which was buried by weeds, turned out to be a small pool.
"There are rockeries and pools here. The previous owner might have been a refined scholar."
Ye Chuqiu said, "We have to be careful when we clean the house tomorrow. I guess there must be a lot of expensive flowers and plants in this yard. We don't know what to do and pluck them out."
"Mom, we don't know these valuables. You have to mark them for us tomorrow." Lin Dahu also said.
The two sang in harmony, trying their best to arouse everyone's emotions.
Lin Erhu and others naturally knew what they were thinking. Just looking at this dilapidated house, they really couldn't laugh. Even the dilapidated temples they encountered on the road were not so dilapidated. The ground of the dilapidated temple was also so dilapidated.
Although the house is flat, even the floor of this house is full of potholes. I don't know if it was because the original floor tiles were valuable and were removed by the nearby people.
"Look at you guys like this, you're all looking at eggplants beaten by frost, and you're so embarrassed. Originally, we planned to live in a wooden house again. Isn't it better to have a ready-made house here? It's free anyway, so why not be happy.
"
Ye Chuqiu said something loudly, and returned to the eaves again, looking around the room, as if she wanted to find its advantages. Finally, after looking at it for a while, she said, "Look at this window leaf, there are carvings on it.
It looks very elegant.”
"Dahu, go and find out if there is a well nearby."
Seeing that everyone was not very enthusiastic, Ye Chuqiu turned around and gave Lin Dahu instructions, and then began to look around the room by himself.
The hall was very spacious and empty. It looked a bit eerie because no one had lived there for a long time. There was a small door on the left and right of the hall. Ye Chuqiu walked towards the small door on the left. It turned out to be a bedroom, and it was quite spacious.
.
There is also a bedroom on the right, plus the hall, the main house has a total of three rooms. In addition to the main house, there are two wing rooms on the left and right. The wing rooms are shorter than the main house and the area is slightly smaller. Because there are no decorations, they are very spacious.
It's rundown, so when you walk in, you feel cramped.
After visiting the main house, Ye Chuqiu walked to the backyard. There was a kitchen and several side rooms in the backyard. In addition, in the northwest corner, behind a clump of messy bamboo, there was a hut, and another
Downstairs, there is a stable with collapsed beams.
When I opened the back door, I saw a small hill covered with bamboos. When a gust of wind blew, the bamboo leaves swayed, and the bamboo tips swayed with it, like undulating waves.
Listening to the waves in the bamboo sea, this is what it feels like.
Returning to the courtyard, Ye Chuqiu moved to the south courtyard. There was an octagonal pavilion here. The carvings on the pavilion had long faded, and a few glazed tiles fell to the ground. A lot of grass grew on the pavilion, and they took root.
Among the corrugations, it appears extremely tough.
The south courtyard was very large, with overgrown weeds and many vines climbing randomly. Ye Chuqiu guessed that it should have been a garden before, but for now, she had better not go in because she was afraid there would be snakes inside.
Entering through the south door, you return to the main house. From the main house to the north courtyard, there are several rooms in the northern courtyard, which seem to be guest rooms, but they are all dilapidated. One house even collapsed half of it.
He didn't know how long the villa had been in ruins. Ye Chuqiu guessed that it must have been more than two or three years, maybe five or six years, or even seven or eight years.
After walking around the villa in a circle, we found that the villa is quite large. There are a few reverse rooms at the entrance. If you hire a doorman in the future, you can live there.
"Mom, are we going to live here from now on?" Lin Sanhu asked, with some disgust in his eyes.
"Why, it's not good to dislike this place?" Ye Chuqiu glanced at him and asked.
"I don't think it's bad here, I just think that we have finally ended our days of escaping and can live a little better."
Lin Sanhu lowered his head and said in a sullen voice: "Our place is not even as good as the yard chosen by the second uncle and third uncle."
"What's wrong? This place is so big."
"Mom, a big house is not enough. The most important thing is to be comfortable. Mom, it's not like you don't have money. Why don't you buy a yard in the city?"
Lin Sanhu raised his head and said boldly, "If we live in the city, it will be easier for us to do business, and with Uncle Qi's help, we will definitely live a good life."
