The main courtyard is divided into front and back yards, with gardens on the left and right in the front, a two-story building in the middle, and a small garden in the back.
There are two rows of huts on each side of the small garden, which are residences for owners.
"Wow~~"
"Wow~~"
The kids looked at the two-story building and couldn't express anything except "Wow". It's so beautiful and has what my sister called "awesome".
Nothing can be said enough to describe the shock and excitement in their hearts at this moment.
The blue brick wall has red tiles. The blue brick wall is nothing, but the red tiles, they have only seen red tiles at the Yamen.
Qi Baoer's forehead suddenly bulged.
Qilin Country currently does not have the technology to produce red tiles. The so-called red tiles are blue tiles dyed red with a layer of paint.
In the imperial system, everything is naturally divided into levels, and the same goes for colors.
Let's talk about the use of red tiles. When she was in the palace, Grandma Ye was afraid that she wouldn't understand (and indeed she didn't understand) so she specifically told her about this.
The color distinction here is not as detailed as in Qibaoer's previous life/world, but it is still relatively obvious to see.
The red tiles used in the imperial palace are pure red, and then go all the way to Qingmo, starting from the prince's palace and retreating all the way to the third-rank official's palace, ending in rust red.
The same goes for the women with titles, starting from the eldest princess's palace and going all the way to green, ending with the county lord's rust red.
In other words, red tiles are a symbol of status. Those who are officials below the third rank cannot use red tiles, and women below the title of county head cannot use red tiles even if they have titles.
The third-grade official and the county lord are on the same level.
Ke Su, Qi Bao'er said: She doesn't like the rust red color at all, it's so special that it looks like the whole small building is covered with chicken shit.
She even felt like she could smell it.
Hey goose~~
Da Ling and others didn't know what Qi Bao'er was feeling at this moment. They just felt that the red roof was so bright and majestic. No matter how they looked at it, they thought it was beautiful and cool.
Qi Baoer glanced at the other cubs who were so excited that their faces were red, and walked into the small building with claws on his back with a vicissitudes of life on his face to inspect his future nest.
Generally speaking, except for the red chicken excrement on the roof, which Qibaoer is not satisfied with, Qibaoer is quite satisfied with the rest of the building.
By the way, don’t the green bricks and green tiles smell fragrant?
The color is blue and ink, which adds a sense of thickness to the low-key look. The whole color is the same color, how handsome!
Alas~
But once it’s all covered, can it still be dismantled?
Qi Baoer could only comfort himself. At least the wall was ink-green, not turquoise, otherwise the green would be red...
Hey goose~
You can enter the building, but the doors of each room are also locked. I and the others are very insistent on this, and these doors cannot be opened before the official move.
The stairs are opened on the left side. The left side of the first floor looks like a separate conference room, and the right side is a three-room warehouse.
The second floor is the key area where Qi Baoer will live in the future. It is also separated by the stairs. The master bedroom is on the left, the first room dedicated to clothes and jewelry is on the right, and the second room is the study room.
The second floor is one size smaller than the first floor, so there are four rooms downstairs and only three upstairs, and all three are smaller than those downstairs.
However, the small building itself occupies a large area, so even on the second floor, the smallest room is only thirty or forty square meters.
I couldn't get into the house to see, a group of cubs said "Wow" and then skipped to other yards. My sister's yard was majestic, but the little kid was more concerned about the place where he would live in the future.
They can also live in their own courtyard, which was something they couldn't even imagine before.
Even now that it has been built and is in front of their eyes, they still feel as if they are in a dream.
The layout of the other courtyards is similar. They are all one-story houses built in a rectangular shape. The only difference is the size of the courtyards, but overall the difference in size is not too big.

The days passed quietly, and before I knew it, the house was completely completed, and today was the big day of "Praying for the House".
God is so kind to me, the sun is shining brightly today.
Liang Liang is a top priority for rural people, as it means the beginning of family prosperity [everyone builds a new house].
There is a Bagua pattern painted on the lower center part of the beam to ward off evil spirits and control evil spirits, and to ensure the safety of the house.
When an auspicious time arrives, one must first offer sacrifices to the gods.
Qi Kang'an invited Taoist Master Li and his disciples from Yunhua Temple. Taoist Li, who was dressed in blue and black Taoist robes, first recited a piece of Shang Liang prose with an ethereal sound, and then led six disciples in light blue Taoist robes in front of the offering table.
Danced a prayer dance.
Everyone couldn't quite understand or understand it, but they felt it was very solemn and sacred.
As Daochang Li shouted: "Get up~"
The pillar of the family, who was dressed in new clothes, prayed for the safety of the beam, and several men, also dressed in new clothes, worked together to securely place the beam in the predetermined position.
Liang Yian is good, the villagers watching the excitement shouted in cooperation: "Okay~"
This is called prosperity. The louder the villagers roar, the more prosperous the family will be in the future.
The last step is to spread blessings. If others give you blessings, you must also give blessings back to others.
Some people scattered buns and candies, and those whose families were having a good time scattered coins. Regardless of whether they picked it up or not, they would say a few auspicious words to each other to wish each other good luck.
What Qi Zhai scatters are small purses the size of palms. Several men and Qi Baoer stand on the wall carrying big baskets and scatter them outside.
The villagers are very knowledgeable, and they all know clearly that the blessing gifts given to the house will not be too stingy. Not to mention what is inside, it costs ten coins just to buy one of these bags.
The good words keep coming.
Anyway, it doesn’t matter whether it is repeated or not, as long as it is auspicious words, it is called asking for money, and it is also called auspicious.
There are also children who picked up purses and shouted, "Gao Sheng Gui Zi"...
Normally, there are very few adults participating in the blessing activity. Firstly, they want to save face and are embarrassed to compete with children. Secondly, they also know their taste and will not let the host family lose face.
Many people spend all their money building a house, and spreading blessings is meant to seek good luck. Children go up to grab it, and adults just cheer and make the atmosphere lively.
The adults are asked to go and grab it, but if the host doesn't prepare much, then they won't be called to give the host a favor, but a slap in the face.
Today, everyone saw the children of Lao Qi’s family standing on the wall carrying big baskets. Each basket was filled with small purses protruding from the surface of the basket. This was a blessing gift from Lao Qi’s family, even to the adults in the village.
It’s ready!!
It would be a fool not to take advantage of it. Besides, this is a gift from the Fuwa family.
Just a group of old men and women pushed forward without any courtesy.
It can be said that all 400 people from the village came today. Qi Bao'er was worried that something would happen if there was a crowd. He turned around and said to Daliang next to him: "Brother, let's throw it far away, otherwise we won't be able to catch it if it's not far away."
"
Dali looked uneasy and said "OK", grabbed a handful of purses and threw them out vigorously.
Qi Baoer confessed to Er Liang on the other side, and Er Liang followed suit without hesitation.
With the three of them spreading their bags and throwing them away, it finally became less crowded.
After a while, the excitement was still going on, but almost everyone had one in their hands, and many even had several purses hanging in their hands.
