Infrastructure masters in the red building

Jia Amnesty slapped Jia Fang hard on the vest again, and said with a smile, "Brother, how do you know this is called Daoxiang Village?"

"When I was young, I sneaked in to play and saw so many apricot blossoms. I thought it was called 'Xinghua Village', so I yelled outside this yard, 'Pedestrians on the road want to die, and the shepherd boy is pointing at Xinghua Village'. Tell me this place is actually called Daoxiang Village." Jia Shen recalled the past, with a relaxed and fascinated look, thinking that their father-son relationship should be quite harmonious.

"But father warned me not to approach this Daoxiang village." Jia She added.

Jia Fang walked around the earthen well on his own, approaching the courtyard gate of Daoxiang Village.

Although this small courtyard is named "village", it is only a few huts, enough for a family to live in at most.Jia Fang squatted outside the courtyard, first looked at the earthen wall outside the courtyard, nodded, and said, "It's really rammed with loess."

He said "really", because it is consistent with the original record in "Red Mansion".The earth wall outside Daoxiang Village is an earth wall built by the method of "block building", that is, the two sides of the earth wall are surrounded by wooden boards to form a wall shell, and then the shell is filled with soil and compacted to make it a soil. wall.

The walls of this small courtyard are generally relatively strong, but because no one takes care of them, the walls are covered with weeds, like a tuft of hair growing out of thin air on the top of the wall.The condition of the hut is also not good, the main house is still in good condition, and the supporting facilities near the main house have been damaged a lot, collapsed and collapsed.

Jia Fang walked towards those huts again.Jia Amnesty was bored waiting at the side, and suddenly remembered the collapse of the house earlier, and quickly followed Jia Fang, saying, "Be careful—this thatched house hasn't been repaired for a long time."

Jia Fang was not afraid at all: he knew the structure of these thatched houses, and knew that even if they collapsed, it would not be a big problem.So Jia Fang stretched out his hand and pushed the door of the main room open with a creak.

There wasn't much dust in the main room, as if it was being cleaned and wiped from time to time.However, the lighting was not good, so Jia Fang suddenly entered the room, feeling that it was too dark to see clearly, so he hurriedly opened a small window on the west wall, and light came in.

Jia Fang and Jia Amnesty both stood still, and saw that the layout of household items in this thatched hut was the same as that of ordinary people's main hall. The sac apricot flower has already become a dried flower.

On the wooden table, there is a picture of Mi Fu's "Misty Rain", with a couplet on the left and right, which are:

"Fei Changfang couldn't help feeling lovesick,"

"Nvfushi can't make up for Lihentian." ①

When Jia Fang saw this couplet, his heart moved immediately, as if he had vaguely touched some answer.

A seemingly simple pair of couplets actually has a lot of mystery.

According to the records in "Book of the Later Han Dynasty", Fei Changfang was an Eastern Han alchemist.Once when he was drinking in a restaurant to relieve his boredom, he happened to see an old man selling medicine on the street, hanging a medicine gourd to sell pills and ointments.After selling for a while, the pedestrians on the street gradually dispersed, and the old man quietly got into the gourd.Fei Changfang saw it clearly, and concluded that this old man was definitely not someone to be taken lightly.So he bought wine and meat, and respectfully visited the old man.Knowing his purpose, the old man led him into the gourd together.He opened his eyes and saw Zhu Lan Huadong, magnificent, with exotic flowers and rare herbs, just like a palace in a fairy mountain, with a unique cave. The legend of Fei Changfang and Hugong is exactly the "heaven and earth in the pot" in Chinese gardening. "The origin of this concept.

"Heaven and Earth in the Pot" is the same as "Sumeri Mustard Seed", which is the concept of traditional Chinese garden art, pursuing the effect of "seeing the world in a square inch".Jia Fang has intensively studied traditional gardening techniques, so he is very familiar with this legend.

As for the saying "Fei Changfang can't shrink the ground", it means that Fei Changfang later got the shrinking whip from Hu Gong, which can shorten the distance of the space. Acacia.

Not to mention the second couplet, "The Endless Lihentian" is the purpose of the opening chapter of "Red Mansion".

But before Jia Fang could figure it out, Jia Amnesty suddenly stepped forward, pulling Jia Fang's arm and walking out.As he walked, he said: "It's getting late, there's no one here, you and I shouldn't stay in this garden any longer."

Jia Amnesty didn't say he was afraid, but instead said plausibly, "I'm fine, but third child, you are still a child, your eyes are clean, and you can't see what you shouldn't see."

Jia Fang had no choice but to be ashamed of Jia She silently in his heart.

Before the two of them left Huifang Garden, it was getting dark.The old ravens on the big tree in the distance croaked for some reason, and a gust of wind blew by, chilling people's hearts.

Jia She said "Mom", and walked away in a hurry.

Jia Fang stopped and turned his head, looking in the direction of Daoxiang Village.

He actually saw a faint light coming out of Daoxiang Village - not a creepy ghostly fire, but a warm yellow light. Travelers in the middle of the night can feel at ease when they see it, and wanderers returning home will immediately speed up when they see it. pace.

Jia Fang stood there in a daze, looking at the warm lights in Daoxiang Village, as if he could feel an irresistible temptation.

He had a hunch in his heart that something unusual would happen when he repaired Daoxiang Village.

At this time, Jia Fang heard someone calling him, turned his head, and saw a lantern moving quickly along the path. After a closer look, he realized that it was Jia She. He probably snatched the lantern from the gatehouse. Trotted all the way with the lantern in hand, shouting at the same time:

"Third, third!"

Jia Xin was a little moved: Jia Amnesty was the eldest son, but he didn't just leave him, a concubine brother, in the deserted garden. I really should accept his love.

Unexpectedly, Jia Amnesty grabbed Jia Fang's neck and said, "Third brother, I can't do without you—"

Jia Fang: ...What kind of brotherly love is this?

Jia Amnesty: "You must go back with me, and settle the matter for me in front of your sister-in-law. I have neither hit the horse with anyone, nor have I gone out to eat flower wine!"

Jia Fang was almost overwhelmed: the emotion Jia She rushed over tearfully to lead him the way, after all, it was for the peace of his daughter-in-law.

But having such a shrewd and timid Jia She, who loves his daughter-in-law and cares about his younger brother, is the eldest brother...it's not bad.

When Jia Fang came back from Jia Amnesty, it was past Xu time.Fuya couldn't hold her hands and had already gone to bed first, but Sun still insisted on letting Jia Fang stay.

Jia Fang hurriedly washed up a bit, then went back to the room and prepared to go to bed.

He casually picked up the scroll on the desk, opened it and took a look.Seeing the changes in this scroll has become his daily compulsory course, but opening it every day is the same, which has already made Jia Fang not have any expectations for this matter.

But this time Jia Fang glanced at it, and was immediately stunned: in the dense fog of ink on the scroll, a small area suddenly appeared, on which was painted a farmhouse, a wall rammed with loess, and grass growing on top of the wall. There is an earthen well at the entrance of the courtyard, and there are only a few thatched cottages in the courtyard.

Jia Fang excitedly said "Wow".He played charades with this scroll for so many days, and the other party finally gave him a hint.

He looked eagerly at the only building that appeared on the map, knowing that this was the Daoxiang Village he had seen earlier.

The scroll of emotion is like the map of the infrastructure game, where the construction reaches, there will be as much space on the map.

Jia Fang rubbed his hands: He is very lucky, the first building at the beginning was given to him in Daoxiang Village.

Daoxiang Village is a garden building with production capacity. There are not only acres of vegetable beds, but also cash crops such as mulberry, elm, and hibiscus.Jia Fang hoped that after repairing Daoxiang Village, he might be able to develop some skills, or obtain some new resources, which could subsidize and fund new projects and support him to complete other buildings in the garden.

He rubbed his hands together before he remembered another thing: Daoxiang Village is the former residence of the current emperor when his old man was in trouble. Does he have the qualifications and ability to repair it?
