The Luo family's old house is still well-preserved after hundreds of years. After the repairs were completed, it still had its original antique charm, which surprised everyone.
Lisa and Monica La have been to the Forbidden City, and many of their entourage have also been there.
The antique Chinese architecture is still very beautiful.
They originally thought that only ancient palaces could be so beautiful, but they didn't expect that folk buildings were also so beautiful.
The painted beams and carved buildings are very majestic and spectacular, and the craftsmanship is amazing.
Those woodcarved people and objects are so exquisite that you can’t help but give them high-fives and praise them.
"Dear Luo, your house is really beautiful!" Lisa praised sincerely.
After Monica translated for Lisa, she smiled and said to Luo Ziling: "Luo Ziling, your ancestors must have been high-ranking, otherwise they wouldn't have such a big house, right?"
"You actually even use the word "high-ranking"? Luo Ziling looked at Monica La in surprise.
"I heard someone say it yesterday and I remembered it." Monica was a little proud, "Now you are also a powerful person, as are your ancestors. It seems that you have always been very prosperous."
"It is difficult for a family without inheritance to produce outstanding talents. Only after three generations of wealth can a noble be born. Perhaps this is true all over the world." Luo Ziling said with a smile: "Some of our ancestors were officials, some were doing business, and some were rich.
If you have status, you naturally have to show it off in the countryside. If you are rich and developed, if you don't show it through houses and other ways, it will be like walking at night in brocade clothes. No one will know, and there will be no sense of accomplishment. In ancient China, there was status and status.
People of all ages will show their success by building a house. Our ancestors were the same way, so they built this big house for the family members to live in."
"I understand!" Monica translated what Luo Ziling said to Lisa.
Where she translated inappropriately, Fang Dongxun who was with her helped correct it.
Fangdongxun's English is very good, although it is still a little worse than Lin Lan, but normal communication is not a problem at all.
After listening to what Luo Ziling said, Fang Dongxun couldn't help but sigh: "This old house of yours has more age and historical charm than the old houses of ours."
After hearing what Fang Dongxun said, Ling Jinhua chuckled and turned to ask Ling Ruonan who was following him: "Do you like our old house or the Luo family's old house?"
Ling Ruonan was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect her grandfather to ask her such a question, and she didn't know how to answer.
However, she experienced many scenes and quickly came to her senses.
"Grandpa, your old house carries too much laughter and memories of our childhood, and it is a symbol of status. I dare not say that I like it, but I know the meaning of that house. The price of the Luo family's old house is definitely lower than ours.
The old housekeeper of my family, and the nature of the property rights is different. He prefers the living style of southerners. After the renovation, the functions are more complete and it is quite comfortable to live in. To say which one I like better, I think regardless of other people's opinions
This is not so appropriate. If no one lives here and I come alone, then I will definitely not like living here. If my family all lives here, then I will definitely like it because it feels like home. Grandpa’s current residence
It's the same thing. When I go to your place now, I feel very cordial, because I have too many memories, and grandpa, you are our closest relative. If one day you move out, then I won't feel this cordiality when I go there.
feeling.”
"I just wanted to ask, you said so much." Ling Jinhua chuckled, said nothing more, and motioned to Luo Ziling to take them to the front for a visit.
Luo Liansheng originally wanted to say a few words, but seeing that Ling Jinhua had left, he did not speak.
After a group of people took a look at the main buildings of the old house, they poured into the backyard.
"Wow, so beautiful!" As soon as they walked into the backyard, Monica La, Yang Qingyin, Wang Feiyang and others all exclaimed.
The renovated yard has flowers in full bloom, peach blossoms and willows, and the water in the pool is as green as blue. The natural and simple beauty makes people feel very peaceful and peaceful, and I fell in love with it immediately.
"This garden is nice!" Ling Jinhua chuckled and said to Luo Liansheng, "Having lived in such a big house since I was a child, my background is unusual."
"Country people like to have a pool of water where they can water flowers and raise fish. They can grow flowers and vegetables and have close contact with nature. They don't deliberately modify it, just let everything take its course. Walking into it, it's like being in a
In the wild, there are no restrictions." Luo Liansheng smiled and said: "We will drink tea in the yard later."
Lisa, who was walking in front, was not too surprised. She whispered a few words to Monica La.
Monicala told Luo Ziling that her grandmother said that this garden was very Chinese, but too simple and not as exquisite as the gardens in Suzhou. Andro had the same idea, but Preston expressed his liking directly.
Luo Ziling also told them what Luo Liansheng said just now. After listening to Monica La's translation, Lisa nodded and said nothing more.
The group of people sat down in the pavilion in the garden, and Xu Chen asked the temporarily deployed service staff to prepare tea, snacks, and fruits.
After Lisa sat down, she looked at a row of blooming vegetables and said to Luo Ziling with a smile: "Is that a vegetable or a flower?"
"Sometimes, vegetables and flowers are the same thing. In the spring, most crops will bloom. Our gardens are not as exquisite as those in Suzhou, but they are very pastoral. Ancient Chinese literati, when they reached retirement age, liked
Returning to rural life, planting flowers and vegetables, and completely integrating with nature. Returning to the countryside will make people forget all kinds of struggles and the glitz of the city. They feel that when they are young and old, they should put it all down and truly enjoy the joy of life.
.”
When saying this, Luo Ziling glanced at Ling Jinhua subconsciously.
As a result, Ling Jinhua glared at him.
Luo Ziling chuckled and didn't explain anything.
Ling Ruonan also said a few words, to the effect that exquisite pavilions and pavilions were standard features in the mansion. They were originally there, but they were demolished because they were too dilapidated. Neither Luo Ziling nor Luo Liansheng liked things that were too exquisite.
, so they didn’t repair it and kept everything simple and natural. This is the same as their character, so everything is simple.
Lisa looked at Luo Ziling and praised with a smile on her face: "Luo, I didn't expect that you can look away from all these things at such a young age. You don't take false fame seriously and like a simple and natural life.
If you keep this mentality, you can face any success or failure calmly. If anyone is your opponent, they will definitely think you are terrible, because fame and fortune are not very important to you, and there is nothing you can do about it.
Threatening you. I think you will definitely achieve success in every aspect, as long as you try!"
After listening to Monica La's translation, Luo Ziling suddenly felt a little proud.
After hearing this, Ling Jinhua and Ling Mingrui looked at him thoughtfully, with a strange look in their eyes.
