Chapter 263: Finding a Shop ()

The Zhu family got on the carriage and turned several corners before entering a quiet street.

There are many sycamore trees planted on this street. Although the leaves have long fallen, the tall branches stretch straight to the sky, and there will definitely be green shade in the summer.

Yang Wu introduced: "This street is called Wutong Street, and all the wealthy families live here.

The house we want to see was a gift from the late emperor, but the old man didn't want to bother with these wealthy families, so he moved to the south city, and the house has been empty ever since. I brought Master Zhu here to see if it would be suitable for opening a hot pot restaurant.

Yu Bo: "Wow, it's a gift from the emperor, and you want us to use it to open a hot pot restaurant. Who gave you the courage? You can decide?"

Zhu Yingying complained in her heart: "It definitely wasn't given by Fish Leong."

Yang Wu smiled and said, "Of course it's Second Master and Master Zhu. Second Master can be half the boss, and Master Zhu's cooking skills give me confidence."

Hehe, this house is empty anyway, it would be great if it could be put to use."

If Yang Jiu were here, he would definitely say, Hey, Fifth Brother, you claim to be a steady and honest person, but now you say something like this.

Zhu Qingqing: "Thank you for your trust, Brother Yang Wu. Let's go and have a look first."

As I walked along, I saw that all the doors were closed and there were no outsiders.

It is indeed a quiet and nice place.

When it was almost at the end, the carriage stopped.

Yang Wu: "Master Zhu, we're here."

When everyone got off the car, they saw that the vermilion lacquered door was closed and there was no plaque hanging on the door.

Yang Wu knocked on the door knocker. After a while, an old man opened the small door and looked out.

Seeing Yang Wu, he shouted in surprise: "Xiao Wu, you are back?"

"Yes, father-in-law."

Yang Wu bowed and said.

"Didn't Yunniang come with you?"

The old man looked behind him and didn't recognize anyone.

"The store is busy, and Yunniang is busy. I'll come with her after closing in the evening. This time, I'll bring a distinguished guest to see this house."

"What distinguished guest? Didn't anyone from the mansion come to announce it?"

Yang Wu: "I just came here on the spur of the moment."

The old man opened the small door and let everyone in.

Yang Wu: "This is my father-in-law, his surname is Li. He and my mother-in-law have been looking after the house.

Father-in-law, this is the family of Doctor Zhu, our distinguished guest in the mansion."

Uncle Li bowed to all the Zhu family members.

"Hello, Uncle Li, thank you for your help."

"No trouble, no trouble. Please."

Uncle Li thought the Zhu family had come specifically to visit the imperially granted residence, and he wasn't surprised. He had seen this happen before, and he had received many relatives and friends of the Yang family who had come to visit and see the city.

Everyone followed Uncle Li inside. Outside stood a tall screen wall. After passing it, the first thing that came into view was the first courtyard. The floor was paved with bluestone slabs, gleaming softly with years of wear. In the center of the courtyard stood several plum trees, their blossoms in full bloom, emitting a subtle fragrance. Directly ahead was a spacious reception room, with a side porch adjacent and connected by a corridor. Tables and chairs were neatly arranged, and several ink landscape paintings hung on the walls, exuding a simple and elegant elegance.

Passing through the winding, antique corridor outside the reception room, the view suddenly opens up to a tranquil and beautiful scene - this is the second courtyard. Compared with the first courtyard, this one is more spacious and open, like a small paradise.

The first thing that catches your eye is a uniquely shaped rockery, resembling a giant dragon coiled in the center of the courtyard. It's lifelike and adds a touch of mystery to the entire yard. Beneath the rockery are colorful flower beds, where a variety of exotic flowers and plants compete for beauty and emit bursts of fragrance, creating an intoxicating atmosphere.

Looking further ahead, a crystal-clear fish pond comes into view. Colorful koi fish swim in the water, sometimes happily darting among the withered lotus leaves and water plants, and sometimes quietly resting on the bottom, enjoying the tranquility and peace.

Beside the fish pond, several sturdy osmanthus trees stand proudly. When autumn arrives, the trees will be covered in golden blossoms, like strings of delicate golden bells dangling from their branches. A gentle breeze brings the rich fragrance of the flowers, filling the air with a refreshing and intoxicating aroma.

Continuing along the bluestone path, a magnificent main hall looms before us. Its doors are closed, but through the carved windows and doors, one can see the antique furniture within. Symmetrical wings flank the main hall, each one boasting exquisite carvings. Every detail is meticulously crafted, showcasing the exceptional skill of the artisans of yesteryear.

Wu Di stood on tiptoe and peered inside for a while, then whispered to Zhu Yingying, "It feels like I'm visiting the buildings of an ancient town."

Zhu Yingying: "Isn't this an ancient building?"
