"Is it Xiao Qi?" Su Yichu was stunned for a moment before he remembered and nodded.
However, Su Yizhao only saw consideration and disdain in his eyes. He had never met her before and must be curious about her.
However, she is currently the concubine of a concubine, and this person probably looks down on her status.
The attire of a scholar has gone beyond the weak crown, with a long face and delicate eyebrows.
The appearance of the Su family is not bad. Anyway, Su Yizhao has never seen an ugly one so far. Not to mention very ugly, but he is also good-looking.
It's a pity that this person with a pure appearance has a philistine heart.
But it’s not Su Yichu’s fault, after all, nowadays people really look down on concubines. However, Su Yichu forgot that his father was also a concubine.
After Su Yizhao understood what the other party was thinking, he would naturally not approach him without a wink.
After the group of people greeted each other, they took a carriage and headed towards the old house.
The Su family's old house is not in the downtown area, but on the outskirts of Beicheng, but it's not far from Beicheng.
It takes about a quarter of an hour to get there by horse carriage from Beicheng.
"Our Su family has a yard in the city, but Fanglin Village is the foundation of the Su family, and the old house has been passed down from our ancestors."
Su Wenqing got off the carriage and looked at the ancestral house in front of her with emotion.
Good boy! Su Yizhao measured it with his eyes. I guess it’s a big five, right?
A piece of white walls and green tiles, the long wall extends to the river in front, like a long dragon.
Whether it was the wall or the exposed roof ridge, Su Yizhao could tell that this old house was many years old.
"Fourth Master! The courtyard wall of this house was just repaired at the beginning of this year, and even the courtyard was re-regulated." Uncle Liu stepped forward and said diligently.
Uncle Liu said and asked someone to remove the door panel, "Master, let's go in!"
They got into the carriage again, this time going directly into the outer courtyard.
The lotus flowers in the pond are in full bloom, and the lush green lotus leaves are very pleasing to the eye. There are corridors on three sides, which look even more spacious than those in the capital.
That’s right! Land in the capital is precious, and there’s a lot of space here, so why don’t we just build whatever we want?
Looking around, the grass and trees are blooming, and the birds are chirping. The flowers are in full bloom, colorful, and you can smell the rich fragrance of the flowers without getting close.
Su Yizhao first thought that if someone allergic to pollen came, they would probably go into shock.
There is also a small arch bridge above the pond, and at the end of the arch bridge is a pavilion.
This is a small garden, and the other end of the pavilion cannot be seen clearly. Su Yizhao guessed that it should lead to the second entrance.
There is a large garden even at the first entrance, which shows how vast this house is.
Su Wenqing nodded with satisfaction, "Well taken care of!"
He glanced at the flower bed. The soil was still very new, and it must have been plowed not long ago.
His eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't say much.
"We are the only ones living in this old house now, and there are no female dependents, so how about we all live in the second room? The yard inside is spacious!" Su Wenqing ordered.
Uncle Liu hesitated to speak. He glanced at Su Yichu, whose expression was a little unnatural, and hesitated whether to speak.
"Since the fourth uncle is interested in the second apartment, then my nephew should live in the third apartment! Anyway, there are many yards, so you can live wherever you like." Su Yichu said suddenly.
Su Yizhao was very surprised, why did this person have to make room when they came? The second place is so big, could it be crowded for three people?
Su Wenqing took a deep look at Su Yichu, but did not ask why, but nodded.
"You can do it yourself! Ah Zhong, let someone bring the luggage in!"
"Fourth Master! Before having dinner later, I will ask all the servants in the house to come to pay homage to you and the two young masters. If you have any instructions, just give them."
Su Wenqing waved his hand and shouted that he was tired and made arrangements quickly.
Su Yizhao was wondering, why hasn't Gu Yuan come back yet?
Su Wenqing had asked Gu Yuan to go shopping before, but Gu Yuan never showed up.
She couldn't help but ask once, and Su Wenqing asked Gu Yuan to come to the old house first. However, they had already entered the house for a while and still didn't see Gu Yuan.
The waiter was more excited than Su Yizhao. Xu had never been out of the capital, so the rules of the old house were naturally not strict compared to those in the capital, so he felt much more relaxed.
"Master! This courtyard is really big, much bigger than the one in the capital! Our small courtyard has a back room behind the main house! There are two wing rooms outside, and there are also east and west compartments."
The waiter took a look at the furnishings in the room, and then said: "There are just a few furnishings, not as exquisite as the ones we have in the capital."
"The house is spacious and comfortable to live in. It's nothing if it's not furnished. It doesn't matter if it's simple."
Su Yizhao put down all his luggage and prepared to take the attendants with him to make arrangements.
Thinking of the place in the capital that was only as big as a pigeon egg, it was really frustrating to live there.
On the other side of the capital, one of the two small penthouses is occupied by Yuerong and the others, and there is another room where things are kept. The east and west wing rooms are all missing.
"Seventh Young Master! My servant Zisu has been ordered by Guanshi Liu to regulate the luggage for the Young Master!"
Suddenly a gentle voice sounded. Su Yizhao turned around and found two girls in their twelfth or thirteen years old standing outside the door.
"My slave Kikyo, I have met the Seventh Young Master!" Another girl also saluted quickly, looking a little nervous.
The two of them were dressed in emerald green with double-breasted breastplates, the same as those worn by the third-class girls in the capital.
"Well done!" Su Yizhao nodded. The two of them looked a little reserved, perhaps because they were familiar with their lives.
The two of them packed their things in an orderly manner, but their movements were not as elegant as those of Yuerong and others, but their hands and feet were deft.
No wonder I heard people say that even girls from wealthy families have stricter rules than those from ordinary small families, and every move reveals the family's heritage.
Zi Su glanced at Su Yizhao, who was busy placing books, and felt uneasy. He didn't know what taboos this young master from the capital had on weekdays.
Both she and Platycodon platycodon were born at home and have been trained since childhood. Last time, Yang’s mother said that if they behave well, they will be sent to the capital in the future.
Now that there is a ready opportunity, as long as they serve well, they will definitely be able to follow him to the capital.
"Master, you are tired from traveling and traveling, why don't you take a rest? I can just do it for you!" Zi Su summoned up the courage to say.
Su Yizhao smiled at her, "I have a lot of luggage, so I have nothing to do anyway. Besides, there are some book placement habits that you don't know much about, so it will be easier for me to find them myself."
Zi Su was stunned when she saw Su Yizhao's smile.
This young master from the capital is so good-looking!
Before dinner, Su Yizhao followed Su Wenqing to meet with the servants of the old house. All together, there were only about twenty people, which was only one-tenth of the number in the capital. The capital must have at least two hundred servants.
The Su family is quite frugal. It is said that there are thousands of people coming to the more luxurious mansions of nobles and nobles!
Su Yizhao calculated that a month's worth of money would cost nearly a thousand taels of silver. If it were her, she would be heartbroken.
