He Chuan brought Su Tao and He Yanzhi to the bus stop, got off the bus and changed buses, walked for a while, and stopped at the gate of an ancient courtyard house an hour later.
Su Tao asked in surprise, "Is this the place you want to bring me to?"
The man didn't reply, but looked at the familiar door, his eyes filled with memories.
It turned out that his uncle wanted Qi Ling to send them here yesterday, but He Chuan wanted to bring Su Tao and Yan Zhi here himself. So when Su Tao was cooking later, He Chuan asked for the route and the method of getting here, and specially brought Su Tao here today.
"Yes, this is my home." He Chuan said softly.
"Your home? Why haven't I heard you mention it before?" Su Tao was a little confused. If He Chuan had a house in Beijing, why didn't he mention it when he proposed to get married and buy a house.
"Before, my father got into trouble and his house was searched and sealed off. I found out about it when I went to my uncle's house yesterday. Now that the matter has been clarified, the house has been unsealed and returned to me." He Chuan said lightly.
"Let's go in and take a look." He Chuan took out the key, opened the door and walked in first.
The layout of the house was similar to that of the houses in the countryside of Hechuan, a quadrangle courtyard with one entrance. However, both the size of the land and the exquisiteness of the house were unmatched by the houses in the countryside.
The style of this courtyard house is similar to that of Uncle Hechuan's house. I think they are of the same style and were designed and built by the same designer.
"How come your family has so many quadrangles? And who is your uncle?" Su Tao asked curiously. He Chuan's uncle's house was a quadrangle, and so was He Chuan's family's. It wasn't something most people could afford. For a family like Su Tao to be able to squeeze into a small suite was already considered well-off.
"My uncle is a member of the Political Committee of the Central Committee. As for our family, my uncle and my relatives are descendants of the Qijia clan of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty. This house was passed down in our family." He Chuan said as he looked around the empty house. His house used to be filled with antiques and famous paintings, but they were all confiscated by the relevant departments during the house search.
Su Tao looked at He Chuan in surprise, his mouth open in shock for a long time.
He Chuan looked at Su Tao's cute appearance, and the sadness in his heart dissipated a little. He possessed himself and kissed Su Tao's red lips lightly.
Su Tao came to his senses when he felt the warm touch on his lips. He Chuan was actually a descendant of the nobility. Su Tao felt like he had won a huge lottery of 100 million.
She suddenly found herself looking for a tall, rich and handsome man.
He Chuan took Su Tao and He Yanzhi to look at the house room by room. The furniture and other basic things in the house had been moved out. But the charm of the house remained unchanged. The courtyard house has been enduring, and the accumulation of history has revealed its connotation and value.
"This is the room I lived in when I was a child." He Chuan introduced with a smile.
"It seems that you were a naughty child when you were young." Su Tao pursed his lips and smiled and said slowly. There were many bumps and scratches on the low walls of the room, which seemed to be caused by He Chuan when he was naughty as a child.
"Yes, I was beaten a lot by my father when I was a child." He Chuan replied without any concern.
He Yanzhi also poked her little head out to look around. She had been born in the countryside, and this was the home of her brother and father. The little girl's eyes were full of curiosity and exploration.
He Chuan and Su Tao had already looked around all the rooms. Su Tao estimated that the area of this quadrangle courtyard, not counting the courtyard, should be around 300 to 400 square meters, and there were more than ten rooms of varying sizes.
In the future, this would be a luxury house for Su Tao, and it would be hard to buy even if he had money.
