"The architectural style of Jiaxi's hometown village is different from the other villages in Lin City we passed before!"
Dong Yi was also in Chi Zao's car, sitting next to Chi Zao. Looking out of the car window at Getai Village not far away, he was full of curiosity: "It seems to be the old architectural style from the Western Province."
Chi Zao glanced at it and said: "Well, there are still some shadows of Hui-style architecture. The houses are relatively close to each other. The few houses that can be seen at the entrance of the village all have their backs facing out. According to Feng Shui,
Turn your back to avoid evil, and use your mouth to receive blessings."
Getai Village is not far from Changqing Resort.
This intersection is about a few hundred meters away, and there is a highway with cars coming and going outside. The ancients thought that roads like this were very easy to get into trouble, so they would make Feng Shui adjustments at village intersections.
The building style with its back facing outwards and the monument "Shi Gandang" erected at the entrance of the village are all distinctive features of southern architecture.
Lin City belongs to the north. Affected by the war decades ago, the architectural style of most northern villages is relatively irregular and scattered. There are very few villages with their own style and characteristics like Getai Village.
When Yan Fei heard this, he couldn't help but said: "Their construction method reminds me of the ancient building enclosure unique to Province F. It is a round building made of loess, with no corners and only one way to enter the building. Inside the building
There are many houses, one next to the other, coming and going, and even a non-local person can’t figure it out. Although this Getai Village is a modern cement house, its arrangement feels like that of an enclosed building.
…”
Chi Zao said lightly: "To be precise, it's more like the Bagua Tower. The further you go in, the harder it becomes. It's winding and winding, and it's easy to get lost. Generally, the center of this kind of building is the core of their entire village."
As soon as he finished speaking, the car just stopped.
Long Er followed Ge Jiaxi. Their car did not enter the village. It was just outside the wide parking lot at the entrance of the village. There were many cars parked here, most of them covered with heavy snow.
After getting off the car, Ge Jiaxi explained to everyone: "Our village is full of sidewalks, and cars can't drive in. Everyone's cars can only park here. But my home is not far from the village head, very close to here."
, let’s walk in for a few minutes, it won’t take any effort.”
"The houses in your village are so dense and they look quite big. How many people live there?" Qian Mingxuan asked curiously while exhaling.
Ge Jiaxi said as he walked: "I don't know the details. When I was a child, there were quite a few people living there, at least thousands. But my parents and I haven't been back to celebrate the New Year in several years. Most of the young people in the village went to grow up again.
Various private B&Bs and restaurants have been developed near Qing Resort. Our family hurried back this year because the two elderly people at home were not in good health, otherwise we would have been settling in Kyoto. So now the specific details of the village
How many people still live there, I don’t even know if I ask my dad.”
There shouldn't be many people in Getai Village.
Because they walked from the village entrance to the door of Ge Jiaxi's house for about five minutes, but they didn't see a single passing villager.
"Hey, Jiaxi, are all these handsome guys and beauties your classmates?"
Suddenly, the door next door to Ge Jiaxi's house opened, and a plump, round-faced middle-aged woman wearing a dark cotton-padded jacket came out, with bright eyes and a smile as she looked at Chi Zao and others who were following Ge Jiaxi.
"Yes, auntie, these are all my friends. I won't tell you anymore, I want to entertain my friends."
Ge Jiaxi responded with a cold tone, while pushing open the door of his house and letting Chi Zao and others enter the house.
Their house is very long. As soon as they enter, the first thing they see is an empty yard and a standing stone wall. On the stone wall is a crane relief, which separates the front yard from the back yard.
It is also a typical Hui style architectural style.
Chi Zao glanced at the ground. Just like outside the village, the road was still made of stone.
After passing the relief stone wall, the ground turned into a modern cement floor. The courtyard was clean and there was an old-fashioned hand-cranked water well pump in the corner.
"Mom and Dad! We are back!"
Ge Jiaxi shouted to the back room and asked Chi Zao and others to go in first and sit down.
The main hall of their house is large and modernly decorated. As soon as they enter, the heating hits their faces, which is in sharp contrast to the cold outside. There is also a cute ragdoll cat running towards them waddlingly. Before it gets close to Ge Jiaxi, it
Squatting on the TV counter a few meters away from everyone, he shook his head and stared curiously at the unfamiliar faces of Chi Hao and others.
After a while, the door on the other side of the main hall was pushed open, and a handsome middle-aged man in casual clothes walked out, "Oh, Xixi brought friends back. Hello everyone, hurry up, don't stand, sit down first.
.”
When he finished speaking, he shouted to the stairs again, "Daughter-in-law, come down quickly, Xixi is back with her friends!"
After a while, a beautiful woman in a long skirt walked down the stairs in a hurry. When she saw Chi Zao and others in the living room, a look of surprise flashed across her eyes.
Ge’s mother had often heard her daughter mention a few roommates with whom she had good relationships, and she didn’t think it was a big deal at the time.
Now that I have met each other, I realize that each of these children is really outstanding in appearance. At first glance, they all seem to be the best among people, especially the one with a cold temperament. He looks to be in his mid-twenties. He should not only belong to which family.
The young master is so simple...
Mother Ge's mind suddenly changed and she smiled tenderly: "You're welcome, just treat this as your own home. Sit down."
Chi Zao and others called out to uncle and aunt together before sitting down on the sofa.
Ge Jiaxi introduced them one by one to Mama Ge: "Mom, you know, I have told you many times, and I have also shown you photos. These are Mingxuan, Xiaoyi and Xiaozao, my roommates! This is
Mr. Xiao is Xiao Zao’s boyfriend, Mr. Yan and Mr. Long are Mr. Xiao’s assistants... and Mr. Lu and Mr. Zhai..."
Mother Ge listened to her daughter's introduction, looked at everyone, and had a rough understanding in her mind, so she didn't ask any more questions.
After all, my daughter has already said it in private.
She is also a business owner. Of course she has heard of the four major families in Kyoto, so she can't help but take a second look at Lu Zifan.
As for Mr. Xiao, his temperament is too attractive.
Let’s look at my daughter’s roommate Xiao Zao, sitting next to Mr. Xiao. They are such a talented man and a beautiful woman, they feel like a perfect match.
Mother Ge couldn't help but sigh, hoping that her daughter would have better eyesight and find a handsome boy to come back.
"Xixi, please have a good chat with everyone. Mom will go to the kitchen to wash some fruits for you and see how your dad is preparing the meals."
After saying that, Mother Ge said to Chi Zao and others: "This is the first time for everyone here, so Xixi's father plans to make some of our specialties for you. I don't know if you are used to it. If
If you have any taboos, you can talk about them without being too restrictive... By the way, Xixi, there are still some dishes. You call your brother and ask him to bring them over. I have ordered them in advance at your Aunt Jiang's house."
