Section 82: A Couple Outing for Two
Koala also likes Yunluo very much, especially after giving her innocent body to Yunluo, Yunluo's body is so strong that it makes Koala very happy. She is so happy that she can't speak. Moreover, Yunluo is still very gentle and will not fall asleep after eating the Koala. She is very good to Koala, which makes Koala feel that this is love.
I really want to thank my brother Qin Ren. If it weren't for Qin Ren's introduction, Koala wouldn't have met Yun Luo, and she gradually fell in love with her. This is love.
Koala is a very lively girl. After getting along with Yunluo, she wanted to stay with Yunluo. These two guys quietly left Sihai City and ran to Yangzhou to enjoy the romantic trip between them.
The two of them first came to Heyuan, which was the last large garden built in Yangzhou in the late Qing Dynasty. After the Tongguang period, due to the decline of salt merchants and canal transportation, the center of the garden construction had been transferred to Suzhou. At this time, the Yangzhou gardens were in a state of returning to the sun, but they could still reflect their bold and grand side.
Heyuan gathers the essence of Yangzhou gardens and integrates the elements of Western architecture well, becoming a stranger in the history of Chinese gardens. From the Fudao corridor to the south, he enters the residential part of Heyuan.
While inheriting the essence of traditional Chinese gardening art, Heyuan Architecture absorbs Western architectural elements and constructs a garden system that combines traditional Eastern spirit and Western life concepts. The houses are mainly reflected in the pursuit of change in architectural layout, and are not bound by the traditional central axis-like horizontal road and vertical road, front hall and back house, but are shaped according to the place and form their own face.
Yunluo and Koala walked into the trinity of Yuxiu Building, Yixuan Building and Horse Riding Building. The changes, vitality and rich atmosphere of the times here are something that people cannot find in pure old gardens. The Fudao corridor is diverted again in Yixuan Building. One is to form a circle-circling up and down passage with the rockery steps in the courtyard, and the other is to enter Yixuan Building and lead to Yuxiu Building.
The Heyuan residential area is mainly composed of a Xuchun Hall with an area of about 160 square meters, two Western buildings with seven bays and an enclosed courtyard. The courtyard of the Moon Tower has an east gate directly to the courtyard where the Yuxiu Building is located, and it suddenly feels open and sparse. The Yuxiu Building is a collective name for two residential buildings parallel to the front and back, and is named after the planting of magnolia and hydrangea in the courtyard.
More than a hundred years ago, the old and young owners of the He family interpreted their life stories in such a garden space. The south of He Garden is a residential courtyard. The overall layout of the building is basically a quadrangle courtyard. It is divided into three buildings in front and back. The southernmost part is the Nanmu Hall, which is where the hosts meet.
It is currently the largest and most complete nanmu hall in Yangzhou. There is a beautiful bamboo forest in front of the hall. Behind the nanmu hall are two exotic double-story buildings with brick and wood structures in front and back, called Yuxiu Building. The houses are spacious and large in scale, and there are small courtyards between the buildings. Magnolia and hydrangea are planted in the courtyard, and a small number of rocks, flowers and plants are accompanied by a small number of mountains, stones, flowers and plants, which look quiet and energetic.
There is a big locust tree in the courtyard. It is said that there were two locust trees in the past, but now there is only one. The Yuxiu Building incorporates some Western architectural techniques, and at the same time, there are also some commendable details in terms of residential functions and humanized needs, such as French louvered doors and windows, Japanese sliding doors, French fireplaces, iron beds, etc.
Yuxiu Building is a collective name for two residential buildings parallel to each other. The name of Yuxiu comes from the magnolia and hydrangea trees planted in the courtyard. The main building of Yuxiu Building adopts the traditional Chinese building concept. The courtyard is surrounded by corridors.
The interior design of the building uses a suite with sliding door partitions, which is completely different from the traditional living room structure of Chinese residential buildings. The decorative details such as chandeliers, fireplaces and other decorations in the room and the carvings on the exterior facade are also full of European style. Therefore, the He family used to call it "Battlehouse".
The wonderfulness of Heyuan includes two aspects: landscape and humanities. Come to the He family’s historical materials exhibition room of Yuxiu Building. It can help Yunluo and Koala truly and specifically perceive the rise and fall history of a modern big family and the colorful and tortuous fate stories of family characters.
In the exhibition hall of the North Building, there is the legendary life experience of He Zhiyi, the owner of He Garden. He Shenghao, the eldest son of the He family, worked hard to study and achieved the journey of his grandparents and grandsons Hanlin.
The second young master He Zhonglu inherited his father's will to promote education and run schools and supported his two sons - Shizhen and Shimei, two foreign doctoral brothers from Mixigen University in the United States, founded the thrilling history of Chizhi University.
There is also a charitable story of the third young master He Shengrun donating the "Hongchuan" to save the life-saving Yidu. In the exhibition hall of the South Building, there are the cousins Wang Chengshu and He Zuoxiu, the academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, who have made achievements and contributions to the reconstruction of the motherland's scientific cause and national spirit, and the 60-year love between Chinese painting master Huang Binhong and four generations of the He family.
The owner's taste can be experienced from his exquisite room layout. As soon as you enter, you can feel the rich European style. On the right side of Yunluo and Koala is a French fireplace. Now Heyuan creates exquisite gardens and uses technological techniques to reproduce the owner's scene of warming in the cold winter at that time. The effect is very realistic.
There is also an electric fan in front of the bedside table that can bring coolness to the scorching heat, which is warm in winter and cool in summer, and has a very high quality of life. This is also very appropriate to the identity of the owner of the park. As the customs chief, he often deals with foreigners, so his vision is very broad.
The furniture in the room is basically original, and it was donated by descendants of the He family when they returned to Heyuan to reunite. The bedroom is close to the study of the owner of the garden. The Yuxiu Building is the same as the overall construction, with sliding doors in the middle, which is equivalent to the current suite, with a Western phonograph and a circle of gold-edged tiles on the fireplace. It was imported from abroad that year, and has not faded in color for more than 100 years.
The candle screen in front of me was copied later based on photos donated by the descendants of the He family. After lit the candle, the light was shining on both sides, which was very beautiful. The picture of Jianghan Range Rover on the wall was where the owner of the park worked. The owner of the park often recalled the past in this room. He went out to Yuxiu South Building and looked at the master's room along the corridor of Fudao. Now I will visit the boudoir of Miss He's family.
This lady is He Zuoxian, the great-granddaughter of the owner of the garden. She is 100 years old this year. He Yuan held an event to "Open the He family and welcome the He family". She also came to He Yuan. The decorations of the entire room were arranged according to her memories.
It can be seen that the lady's talent is quite extensive and has been influenced by Western culture for a long time. The second floor was the lady's boudoir, where the owner of the garden lived. In feudal society, the lady could not meet people easily. Therefore, the owner of the garden sent "heavy troops" to guard it, and the guests did not dare to step over the line.
Looking up, there is a square hole in the top porch plate with pulley lifting, which is specially used for the lady to transport food and tea. On the wall is an oil portrait of her when she was young, which is dignified and elegant, with a ladylike demeanor. The cheongsams and handbags on the clothes hangers were also worn by her when she was young, and they were donated by her. Therefore, the Yuxiu Building is very European in terms of both the exterior and the interior layout, and it is a well-deserved villa.
The theme building of Yuxiu Building is two brick and wood structures in front and back. It adopts the traditional Chinese building concept and Western architectural techniques, such as French louvered doors and windows, Japanese sliding doors, French fireplaces, iron beds, etc.
In addition, in terms of reflecting the functions and humanized needs of residential buildings, there are also some commendable details, such as ventilating holes on the ground, and building a breathable layer nearly two meters high underground, which shows the idea of the owner of the park at that time to "keep up with the years"!
The He family attaches great importance to education, both men and women, and receives good education. The room next to the lady’s boudoir is a place dedicated to the lady reading, practicing piano, playing chess, and painting. According to family rules, the He family does not use maids, and the personal maid is also a married woman. Zhao Ma is the female manager of the He family.
Go out of Yuxiu Tower and follow the Fudao corridor to the east and enter the Horse Riding Tower. The Horse Riding Tower is Heyuan’s guest house. Riding a horse means a foreign land and a journey. Heyuan’s guest house takes the name of riding a horse, which has a deep thought.
There is another saying that the Horse Riding Tower is shaped like a saddle and is divided into two buildings in the east and west. The East Tower is also called the East First Floor, and the Horse Walking Tower is arranged neatly to the north by the East Second Floor and the East Third Floor. These three buildings are all two floors, connected in front and back, connected in the upper and lower parts, like a maze.
The East Building is also known as the East Building and Zouma Tower. The master of Chinese painting Huang Binhong is the clan uncle of He Zhiqi, the eldest daughter-in-law of He Yuanyuan. Huang Binhong came to Yangzhou six times in his life, and they all lived on the East Building. Huang Binhong is already ninety-one. In his long letter to his female disciple Gu Fei on painting, he once again recounted his experiences and experiences when he went to Yangzhou and He Yuan.
There are two courtyards between the east first floor, the east second floor and the east third floor. There is an aisle in the middle of the east second floor, connecting the front and back two courtyards. This aisle in the middle of the east second floor was once the former residence of the famous writer Mr. Zhu Qianhua. Mr. Zhu Qianhua's family of five (parents, sisters and brothers) lived in this aisle in the middle of the east second floor, and lived for five years.
At that time, the corridor was closed with a back wall, making it a living room. The living room was built with a wall, divided into two small rooms in front and back, for private houses. Zhu Qianhua's introduction: a member of the Chinese Writers Association, and his representative works include "Water Flowing Flowers: Notes on the Southern Plants", "Notes on the Fields of Lingnan", "Rain Blowing Banana Leaves Falling in the Garden: The Record of Lingnan Painting Boats", etc.
The Horse Riding Building looks stable from the outside, as if it is completely visible. When you walk in, you will find that there are three courtyards hidden in the building on the right. The halls are lined up, the doors are intertwined, and the corridors are roundabout, like a maze. Located on the southernmost part of the park, Yuguitang is the last building in the residential part. If you enter the garden from the main entrance of No. 18, Garden Lane, it is the first hall for welcome guests. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better and faster!
