Chapter 1466: Mansion (a reward for the book friend "Manbao's Ideal")
The concierge was also very happy and felt that he could leave. He immediately took out a bunch of keys from his pocket and handed them to Manbao respectfully, saying, "Little Doctor Zhou, this is the prince's villa. We have been watching over it. After Eunuch Wu came to deliver the message two days ago, we cleaned it inside and out. Here are the keys to each door, please see..."
He said, "Would you like me to take you for a walk, or..."
Zhou Wulang had already squeezed in from outside, reached out to take the key and said, "No need, we can check it ourselves, you go first."
The doorman immediately turned around happily and went back into the lobby, picked up the bag he had packed earlier and slipped away.
This house is said to be the prince's villa, but since it was given to the prince, except for the first year when the prince remembered to entertain guests here, the prince has forgotten about this house.
It was said that there were always people staying there, but in fact, there was only a family who were guarding the gate and the yard. A few days ago, someone from above said that the prince was going to give away the house, so he sent a group of palace servants to clean the house inside and out, and take away the things that violated the rules. His parents left with him at that time.
This is a rare opportunity. Otherwise, if they stay in this house, they may never make any progress in their lives. Although they don’t need to make a big contribution, it is better than staying in this house and the master not even remembering to visit for several years, right?
The servants don’t get much from their monthly wages, especially since they are responsible for their own food and clothing. Basically, the monthly wages are enough for food and clothing, and their lives are worse than those in the imperial farm.
So when Manbao and the others arrived, he handed over the key, picked up his bag and ran away immediately. Hahahaha, he also wanted to go back to the East Palace!
As soon as the doorman left, everyone immediately looked inside the door. Manbao raised her leg to cross the threshold, but for some reason she stepped on it with one foot. She even stepped on it with both feet. "This threshold is really high!"
Madam Liu and Mr. Zhuang, who were standing in the back: ...
Before either of them could speak, Zhou Wulang slapped her off the threshold and scolded her, "Can you step on the threshold?"
Before he could finish his words, Manbao waved his arm and yelled, "Go! Let's go in and look at the house!"
When everyone heard this, they immediately ran in.
Manbao and Baishan rushed to the front, but Bai Erlang quickly caught up with them from behind, even surpassed them, and rushed in all at once.
Bai Shuping also lifted his legs and ran two steps, but when he saw that his parents were motionless, he couldn't help but stop.
Daji nodded and smiled at him, "Go quickly, we will wait for the old lady at the back and go in slowly."
When Bai Shuping heard this, he immediately ran inside.
Manbao and the others had already run into the first lobby.
This is a very large house. After entering the gate, there is a square open space. There are doors on the walls on both sides. I don’t know where they lead to, but it’s definitely not outside.
They just saw from outside that the house was very big, and the side door was a long way behind the main gate.
Next came a wide porch with a number of small rooms on either side, which seemed to be for servants to live in. Beyond the porch was a large courtyard with a large sycamore tree on each side. There were some potted plants in the courtyard, but they looked a little lifeless.
In the middle is the main hall for receiving guests, which is fully equipped with tables and chairs, but the walls are empty, and it is obvious that the things that were hung there before have been put away.
The main hall was very large. A group of teenagers ran in, walked around, and quickly disappeared.
Manbao looked up at the tall wooden beams and exclaimed, "This roof is so high."
Bai Shan bluntly asserted, "Before the Crown Prince, the person who lived here had to be at least a third-rank official, or he had to have a noble title. Otherwise, such a high beam would be against the rules."
Zhou Lixue had already walked around a screen, opened the door, and walked to the other side, shouting, "There's a room here, and it's quite big, but why is there no bed?"
Manbao followed and said, "This is also the place for entertaining guests. There are places for entertaining guests on both sides. People live in the back."
Everyone ran to the back and went in. There was a small garden with a rockery in it and corridors on both sides. The corridors led to the front, back, left and right.
They didn't look left or right and went straight to the back.
After walking down a corridor, they saw a courtyard with a blank plaque. Bai Shan said, "This is the main courtyard."
Everyone pushed the door open and went in.
This yard is slightly larger than the backyard of Changqing Lane where they live now. Everyone rushed in to take a look and found that not only the main house is big, but the study is also big, and there is even a small kitchen. It can be said that it has everything.
There is another courtyard behind the main courtyard, which is slightly smaller than the main courtyard, but also has all the necessary facilities.
Further back is a large garden.
It is really big, comparable to Bai Shan’s family’s garden in Qili Village.
You should know that Bai Shan's family can race horses in the garden of Qili Village.
As they entered the garden, the young men cheered immediately, especially since it was spring and flowers were in full bloom. Even though the garden had not been carefully tended and was still overgrown with weeds, everyone thought it was very beautiful.
Zhou Lijun ran wildly for a while, then said happily to his sister, "That's great! Next time I go to the garden to play, I won't be afraid of always running into my aunt and Bai Shan. It makes me embarrassed to go to the garden."
Zhou Liru also thought it was a good idea. "Then we can open up a piece of land to grow vegetables, right?"
Zhou Lijun nodded, "Of course."
Manbao was also very happy. With such a big house, she could buy more flowers and plants.
Zhou Lixue and the others had already run to the left and right.
Just now they only walked along the center line. There are yards and gardens on both sides.
When they pushed open the connected courtyard gates, they found that the house was really big. There was a long corridor on the left that connected to the side door. There were four courtyard gates on the corridor, and one courtyard gate connected to a courtyard. When they pushed the door open, there were basically two small entrances inside, a corridor with a main hall, and three main courtyards at the back, with wing rooms on both sides and a small courtyard in the middle.
These four courtyards have front and back doors, so they can be connected to each other or closed to form separate courtyards.
The only downside was that each courtyard looked exactly the same at first glance. Bai Erlang felt dizzy after turning around two of them. "Didn't I just enter this courtyard?"
He felt that this place was not fun, so he simply went through the corridor on the left into the main hall, and then went to the right from the main hall.
The courtyard over there was more spacious and more interesting. It also had four courtyards, but the front one was not for living. The room was deliberately built to be more spacious. He pushed the door open and found rows of empty bookshelves inside, and he knew that this was the study.
The houses on both sides are also quite spacious, but they are empty inside, with nothing but some couches.
A group of people walked through the entire house as if they were on an expedition. Manbao looked at the time in the system and found that more than half an hour had passed while they were walking around.
She was stunned.
The more Bai Shan looked at him, the more uneasy he felt. He couldn't help but quietly pull Man Bao's hand and ask, "Do you like living in a big house?"
Manbao nodded, then shook his head, "It looks nice, but it's so big, how long would it take me to walk around my house every day?"
See you at 10pm
