Chapter 73 One-day trip to Red Bean Farm

The head of Anbei Village, whose surname was Duan, almost ran to the gate when he heard the news from the gatekeeper, just in time to meet the Yu family and their people entering.

Duan Zhuangtou knew Yu Song, one of the owners who came last time. He also knew the county magistrate behind Yu Song. He had met him before when he went to the city for business.

He looked at everyone else one by one, and finally his eyes fixed on Yu Hongdou, the smallest one.

Duan Zhuangtou knew that this was the master of their Anbei Manor. Although he didn't understand why the Yu family would give such a big manor to a little girl, it did not prevent Duan Zhuangtou from being the most respectful to Yu Hongdou.

He was even more respectful than he was to the county magistrate. When he saluted, he bent lower in front of Yu Hongdou.

Yu Hongdou gave up the embrace of her father and brother and insisted on walking in herself. It was her first time coming to her own farm, so she had to act like the host.

After entering from the main gate, a few steps will lead you to a spacious entrance hall.

This large room is connected by four main rooms, with four folding doors on the front and back, and windows on the left and right sides. It looks spacious and bright, and very impressive.

Four young farmers were standing in front of the gate with their backs bent. They were dressed similarly to Duan Zhuangtou, all wearing coarse cloth.

"Master and Madam, young master and young lady, these four are the servants who guard the gate of the manor. They are paid one or two coins each for a piece of wood or iron. On weekdays, they work in shifts of two to guard the gate." Village head Duan introduced.

The four young servants bowed to their master's family, and then looked at the young master cautiously.

Yu Hongdou felt very satisfied when she felt the respect from Duan Zhuangtou and the four servants in front of her.

Even with Tan Bailu, Yu Song and Yu Sanlang present, he still treated me like this. It must be that Duan Zhuangtou had specially taught him this.

Whether she truly respects me or judging from the support behind her, it shows that Duan Zhuangtou is a smart person, and it would be much easier to deal with such a person.

Passing through the gate hall, you will see two tall pine trees, standing on both sides of the yard, one on the left and one on the right.

In the center of the yard is a straight stone road that leads to a huge circular flower bed. In the middle of the flower bed is a screen-like rockery. On the top of the rockery are two large characters "Runze" engraved in graceful strokes.

Yu Hongdou didn't quite understand the meaning of these two words, so she looked at Master Shang. Just as she was about to ask, the show-off Tan Bailu started praising him.

"Moisturized, rain and dew nourish, benefit the crops, which is quite appropriate for the scene." Although the words and meaning are ordinary, it is appropriate for the scene, and this is what Tan Bailu praised.

The rain and dew nourish the seedlings and make them grow strong. It seems that the former owner of the manor is still a pragmatist. Yu Hongdou nodded with satisfaction, and then the rockery was left untouched.

Some ornamental plants were deliberately planted on the rockery. Now they are blooming in red, yellow, pink and green, and it looks very lively.

After hearing the county magistrate's praise and seeing the young master nodding with satisfaction, Duan Zhuangtou puffed out his chest with pride, thinking that the effort put in to carefully maintain the rockery and the flowers and plants on it was not in vain.

After standing for a while, a few people walked around the rockery, passed through a moon gate, and finally arrived at the five main rooms located in a sea of ​​colorful flowers.

The foundations of the five main rooms are slightly higher, and a field of colorful roses is planted under the stone steps in front of the door. Judging from the height and thickness of the plants, these roses have probably been grown for quite some time.

The famous Rose Manor in later generations flashed in Yu Hongdou’s eyes. The fields of roses made people dizzy.

If she divided the roses in front of her into pieces and planted them all over the farm, wouldn't she own a rose manor?

Which girl doesn't want to have a sea of ​​flowers? Yu Hongdou could hardly control the corners of her mouth that were curled up crazily.

In addition to roses, there are several kinds of flower trees planted in pairs on the east and west sides of the yard. Yu Hongdou only recognized osmanthus and magnolia, and the others just looked familiar but she couldn't name them.

In Yu Hongdou's eyes, these flower trees are not only beautiful scenery, but also wealth shining with golden light. Even if she cannot sell soaps, selling essential oils and floral waters is also a way to make money.

"The flowers and trees in this area are well planted, Duan Zhuangtou. If there is space elsewhere, move more and cultivate them there." Yu Sanlang instructed Duan Zhuangtou.

He looked at his daughter's sparkling eyes and knew that this touched her heart, so he just wanted to attract more people.

Duan Zhuangtou said "Oh" with joy and agreed.

These flowers and trees were specially found by his father and grandfather based on their estimation of the previous master's preferences. They thought that if the master came one day and saw these flowers and trees and was happy, he would give some money or show some grace to their family.

Unexpectedly, the previous master never even looked at her, but she won the heart of the current master.

Duan Zhuangtou sighed and said, this is what they call "an unexpected success in getting a good tree".

"This is the first time I've seen roses in so many colors. Sister Hongdou, please give me one of the two-color ones later~" Tan Bailu asked his junior brother's sister for it without any hesitation.

Yu Hongdou got goose bumps all over her body when Tan Bailu called her "Sister Hongdou".

She secretly glanced at Tan Bailu, then looked at her brother and monk who were also annoyed by the cliché. Yu Hongdou smiled, rubbed her arms in front of Tan Bailu, and then agreed.

There are five main rooms in the hall. The three in the middle are connected to serve as a place for receiving guests and settling accounts. The two rooms on the left and right, one is used as a temporary resting place, and the other is used as a study.

Yu Hongdou was no longer serious now. She paced back and forth in the main hall with her hands behind her back.

He looked at the landscape painting hanging in the center of the main hall, the table in front of the painting, and the items on the eight-immortal table.

I was dismayed to discover that these items looked exquisite to the naked eye, but there was not a single green glow, let alone a check-in point.

It seems that Zhuangzi is a bit plain and simple (poor).

Yu Hongdou pulled her mother to look at the rooms on the east and west sides. The bookshelves and antique cabinets in the rooms were actually empty... It was really simple (poor)!

But soon Yu Hongdou became more alert because she could see lotus flowers outside the windows on both sides of the east and west wing rooms.

Walking around the corridor in front of the main hall to the back, you will see a stone bridge directly opposite.

On both sides of the bridge are large ponds with a number of lotus flowers planted in them. You can see the kind of lotus pond that is as green as the sky and the sun!

“The little lotus leaves are just beginning to show their pointed tips!” (Note 1) When Yu Hongdou first saw the lotus pond, her eyes were fixed on a flower bud that had just begun to turn pink, and she couldn’t help but blurt out the classic line.

"The little lotus leaves are just beginning to show their tips? Wonderful!" Master Shang has sharp ears and could not help but savor these words carefully. He then looked at the pink buds nodding in the wind and could not help but clap his hands in praise.

Yu Hongdou couldn't hold it anymore and wanted to slap herself twice for her quick mouth. She didn't want to be a plagiarist!

As a typical science student, apart from a few poems that she memorized deeply from her student days which were still circulating in her head, most of them had long been returned to her long-lost Chinese teacher.

Just when Yu Hongdou didn't know how to interpret this sentence, the clever Duan Zhuangtou came to the rescue of his beloved little master.
