Bright Moonlit Night

After Fu Ming went to greet the old lady a few times, he was "privileged" by the old lady so that he didn't have to go to greet him if he had nothing to do.Fu Ming knew that it wasn't because he was loved by the old lady, it was just that the old man got tired of trying to save face a few times, so he simply ignored him.This should have nothing to do with his grandson Jin Yi's attitude towards him. After all, it's been more than half a month, and the garden is full of spring flowers, but the relationship between the husband and wife is still frozen.Even his own husband refused to set foot there. Except for Zhao Yan who was willing to come, Fang Manting was deserted, and it was almost the most deserted place among all the masters' residences in the entire Jin Mansion.

Fu Ming is very free before noon every day, and he doesn't want to go to other places to attract attention, so he concentrates all his attention on his own small world.

The house is too well-regulated, maybe it can be rearranged; the flowers and trees in the yard are also relatively monotonous, and in certain seasons, they will become more decayed and need to be remodeled.

Fu Ming asked Lufei to ask Nurse Zhaoyan whether the individual courtyard had the right to take care of it independently.The wet nurse said, logically, if the masters are not satisfied with the residence, they can change it according to their own wishes, but they need to report what manpower and additions are required, and if the manager agrees, things can be done.Now the old lady is getting old, and the Renlan girl is still young. In addition, there is no other serious mistress, and the affairs of the mansion will be managed by Jin's concubine, Wang, for the time being. These things must be done through her.

"My lord, if other people are okay, this one might be in some trouble." Xie Lan said.

Fu Ming thought about it, and started to write the list, "Let's try it first, if it's okay, I still have some dowry money, if not, I can use it first."

Lufei said: "My lord, you can't use this money. Mother Shen spent a lot of effort to get it for you. Before she went home, Mother Shen told us repeatedly that the money is reserved for urgent needs in the future. Every day If you spend one or two, you have to keep the account for it, and it is absolutely impossible to use it to buy some dispensable things."

Fu Ming knew that although Lu Fei respected him very much and was gentle and reasonable, but his temper was very stubborn, and he obeyed her wet nurse, so he could never get the money out of her hands, so he could only say: "Then you Take this list and go over there and ask, if you can get these things, we can all live more comfortably!"

Lu Fei took it, and went without any confidence in her heart.Not long after, he returned with a complicated expression.

"Why, didn't it work?" Yulan asked.

Lu Fei shook her head, "The other side said that things will be counted out in a few days, and whenever we want them, just ask someone to get them."

"That's great! But why don't you look very good? Are you angry?"

"It's not a big deal. It's just that when I asked, the person said that these things are not important. In the past, the masters didn't like to use them. Some of them were piled up in the treasury. Move and move."

Xie Lan said angrily: "This is another generous favor, and stepped on us again! It seems that we have never seen the world and used good things."

Lu Fei tugged at her, "It's enough that you and I know this well. Don't yell loudly, it's not good for people to hear. If someone says that we talk about the master in private, it's a trivial matter to punish us, so he has opinions on the young master." Big deal."

"Well, I understand. I'm just talking in front of you."

"Walls have ears, you have to be more careful."

……

In any case, Fu Ming's actions to reform Fang Manting began to be implemented one by one.

Before that, although the house was spacious, it didn't have a study room, so Fu Ming separated the large reception hall with a screen, and he only bought a wooden one that hadn't been painted.After moving here, he spent a few days drawing a picture of a mountain stream on it. The stream flows out of the mountain and flows into the river, and the picture gradually widens until the river is like the sea and the boats are like mustard.

Behind the screen, there is another realm: the books on the bookshelf are scattered, but not messy. The pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the desk in front of the shelf are his own. Although they are not precious treasures, they are all carefully selected by him. Unique, rare elsewhere.There are two windows on the left and right sides of the compartment, and there is an incense table under one window. The incense burner is not in the shape of auspicious animals commonly used by wealthy people nowadays, but is carved into miniature mountains with pine trees. When burning incense, the cigarettes curl up, It looks like a realm of immortals; beside the incense burner is a piano case.There is a high stool under the window on the other side, on which fresh flowers can be placed in vases, but this place is mainly arranged as a semi-open tea room with all tea sets.

He also selected and put away the various antiques that were originally placed on the shelves in other places in the house, and replaced them with small potted flowers and some of his own collections. There are many gadgets here, even children's toys. The prices vary, but they are all new and interesting.

The colors of the bed nets and curtains, the styles of teacups and fruit plates, etc., were all changed one by one...

As in the house, so in the courtyard.

Flowers, plants, fruits and trees are re-arranged according to their heights, matching with pavilions, ponds and corridors, showing a pleasing sense of undulation and density.Originally there were only a few carps in the pond, but Fu Ming asked people to raise two turtles and Xiahe in it.According to the different flowering seasons, in early spring, late spring, summer and autumn, and even winter, some flowers of various colors are planted separately to ensure that there are pleasant flowers and colors in all seasons, making it a real fragrant garden.

Finally, on the stone opposite the door in the courtyard, the words "Fang Man Ting" were really engraved.

……

Recently, Zhao Yan often whispered in Jin Yi's ear:

"Daddy, Uncle Ming shared tea with Yan'er in the new tea room today. There was a word written on it. Uncle Ming said it was the word 'Zhao Yan'. The tea soup was white and the tea cream was green. It was better than the one made by Grandpa Li. !"

"Daddy, Yan'er really likes the grinder in Uncle Ming's house. It's more beautiful and interesting than the old lady gave Yan'er last time. Uncle Ming saw that I liked it and wanted to give it to me, but Yan'er thinks it's still for Uncle Ming. It looks good on the shelf. Daddy will also go and see it next time!"

"Daddy, a few more saplings were planted in Uncle Ming's yard today. Uncle Ming said that these saplings will bloom next year, and Yan'er even helped water them!"

"Daddy..."

The speaker really meant it, but the listener didn't mean it at all, but the more times he said it, the more slowly he wavered.

One day, when Jin Yi came back from the yamen, it was just when the sun was setting in the west. He asked his servants, but the old lady hadn't sent someone to deliver the message, and Zhao Yan was still staying at Fu Ming's place, so he changed into court clothes and went to Fangman Court. go.

Before I was admitted to the hospital, I could hear the birds chirping to each other, chirping into a rhyme, and a branch of plum blossoms as white as snow was stretching on the wall, showing the strong spring that could not be concealed.

After being admitted to the hospital, the three characters "Fang Man Ting" came into view. The marks of the characters are dark green, which blends with the stone covered with mottled green moss, which is completely natural.

The two little girls were dozing off in the corridor under the tender twilight, Jin Yi walked through the twists and turns without disturbing them and walked into the house.There was no one in the hall, but laughter came from behind the screen.

Jin Yi looked at the main room for a few times, and he found a statue of Mohele on the shelf. It was originally a gadget, but it was placed on the wooden shelf with other things, but it seemed to be seeing the world with childish eyes. The unusual feeling, fresh and unobtrusive, demonstrates the unique taste of the owner.

Jin Yi withdrew his gaze, walked around the screen, and stood at a corner that no one had noticed. He saw Fu Mingzheng making kites with Zhao Yan and a few maidservants. There were two already made kites on the ground, one was a butterfly One is a golden carp; the other one is under construction, it should be in the shape of a tiger-headed child, judging by the clothes, it is somewhat similar to Zhao Yan.

Several people cooperate with each other tacitly, and it can be seen that they already have experience in cooperation.Zhaoyan reeled the thread and said with a smile, "This one is ready, is it for me?"

Fu Mingdao: "Yan'er will give you whichever kite you like. Do you want to put it here with Uncle Ming, or take it home by yourself? If you put it here, it will be tied up in a few days. Let's fly the kite together. "

Lu Fei smiled and said: "Fly a kite to drive away bad luck, and the year will be smooth and safe!"

Zhao Yan replied without hesitation: "Yan'er likes this doll kite, and Yan'er wants to put it here with Uncle Ming! Yan'er wants to fly the kite with everyone!"

"This little doll is so big, it's almost as big as your body, young master, can it be put up?" Xie Lan laughed.

"Sister Liuyong, let me release it together!" Zhao Yan pointed to his maid, "She is bigger than me, and she has strength, so she must be fine."

"Then I've won the honor of our elder brother Yan!" Liu Ning laughed.

"There are still a few days, everyone has one."

"Thank you son." Everyone said in unison, with smiles on their faces.

Jin Yi looked at the elegant room that became a mess due to colored paper, thread ends, etc., and a few people who were having fun together in a bunch of colorful things, and he didn't know how to highlight his own existence.After standing for a long time, he gave a fake cough, and Fu Ming and others raised their heads one after another. Seeing that it was him, they all stopped what they were doing and got up together.

Jin Yi didn't stay there, just nodded to Fu Ming, and then led Zhao Yan away who was clearly not satisfied.

Along the way, Zhao Yan kept talking about all kinds of things that happened at Fu Ming's place today, trivial things, but in his heart, they were all interesting and joyful.

Talking dryly, Zhao Yan swallowed his saliva and said again: "Father, Uncle Ming's Fangman Court is much more interesting than Yan'er's place."

Jin Yi thought, no wonder children always like to run there these days!Children, they all like new and interesting things, so they said: "You can ask your Uncle Ming to help you rearrange the place where you live."

"Is it really possible? Thank you, Daddy!"

"You don't need to thank me, you should thank the person who helped you, but I'm just suggesting that you need other people's consent."

"Uncle Ming can help me only if Daddy agrees, and with Daddy's words, Uncle Ming will definitely agree."

At a young age, it is clear.Jin Yi smiled and said no more, and let Zhao Yan speak happily all the way to the old lady's room.However, in the end, he still gave a little lesson to the children who have been playing crazy recently: "Master of the family, no matter how young you are, you have to be decent, restrain yourself, don't go too far, understand?"

Zhao Yan nodded, and obediently said: "Understood, thank you for your father's instruction."

That night, the Jin Mansion was still calm and slightly silent.But today, the news that Jin Yi set foot in Fangmanting for the first time spread to various houses. After hearing that he just went to pick up Zhaoyan and did not stop there, some people sighed, some laughed...

No matter how good his spring looks, it would be futile for Dong Jun to refuse to take care of him.
