The gate of the Uncle Wu Chunze's house was facing more than ten steps, and there were two big willow trees. The autumn cicadas were huddled in the trees. To present the boundary, there was a bamboo fence in front of the gate. In recent years, there were few houses inhabited and no one was taken care of. The fence wall was decayed, and several collapsed gaps were found. A wild cat was alarmed by the voices of Zeng Yu and Wu Chunze, and quickly jumped out of the front yard, and it was gone in a few seconds.

Wu Chunze shook his head and said to Zeng Yu: "This place has become a nest for wild dogs and wild cats. Do you still want to go in and take a look?" Seeing the door so dilapidated, Wu Chunze regretted recommending this house to Zeng Yu.

Zeng Yudao: "Let's take a look outside first."

Zeng Yu walked around this house. This house was different from the common house styles in Guangxin Mansion. It has a typical Huizhou house characteristics. The high horse-headed walls surrounded the house, with white walls and black tiles, and fine brick carvings. Wu Chunze said that his cousin went to Huizhou to sell tea oil in his early years and loved the style of Huizhou's house. After saving a little, he bought land and built a house here. He also specially hired craftsmen from Fuliang. The cost was no less than 400 taels of silver. Now, no one cares about fifty taels of silver to sell, and he still used it as a farmland. He thought it was not cost-effective.

When I turned to the right side of the house, I saw a three-meter-high jujube tree through the high courtyard wall and asked: "Since it is in the Huizhou style, why do you plant big trees in the horse head wall?" Huizhou houses are taboo for big trees that are higher than the ridge of the building, but the houses in Guangxin Mansion are not taboos.

Wu Chunze sighed: "My goodness has huge eyes. You can always see the vital points at a glance. Just now, a cousin drowned in Huiwan. This date tree made me fall to death. Oh, a nine-year-old child climbed a tree to pick dates and fell down. He was fine at that time, and he complained about abdominal pain at night and disappeared before dawn."

Zeng Yu said: "Although it is an accident, but disasters never come in singularity, always have bad luck - Four joys, take out the compass."

Just when Zhu's house was just out, Zeng Yu asked Si Xi to bring the tiger bone wood compass with him, which would be useful at this time. Wu Chunze came over to see this complex and delicate compass. The compass was divided into eighteen layers. The first layer was the innate Bagua plate, the second layer was the Nine Stars of the Earth Mother, and then the twenty-four heavenly stars, the twenty-four mountains, the twenty-four solar terms, and the seventy-two dragons through the mountain... The last two layers were the five elements of the Huntian Star and the twenty-eight constellations boundary—

Wu Chunze looked at Zeng Yu turning the compass. The dense Xingtu Mountain Dragons made him dizzy and rubbed his forehead and smiled: "Oh, Mr. Feng Shui is not delicious, I can't see this compass."

Zeng Yu said: "Yes, it's not easier than writing eight-legged candidates. Most people are uneven when holding a compass." Back in front of the house, enter the fence gate, stand three steps outside the main entrance, and end the compass with a chest, face the gate, and turn the twenty-four mountains of the territory. This is the direction of the mountain to determine the house. Xiangyang house is extremely important. It is necessary to determine the four places in front of the gate, the master's bed, study desk and stove. Only by setting the direction of the mountain can the prosperity and bad places of the house be discussed.

Wu Chunze was confused. He took the key and opened the door. After following Zeng Yu in and out for more than half an hour, Zeng Yu settled the mountain and went to see the jujube tree in the patio of the inner courtyard. In autumn, it was when the dates were ripe. The trees were half green and half red. Wu Chunze's cousin fell down when he climbed the tree and picked the dates. The edge of the patio was made of green stone, and the floor was paved with square bricks, which were extremely hard. The fruit trees were planted in the patio. Boys were naughty and of course they would climb. The chances of falling were high. Xiangyang House must consider these-

Zeng Yu took bamboo poles and made dates. Si Xi picked up all over the ground. He quickly picked a large handful and handed it to Zeng Yu. Zeng Yu tasted a red date, which was very sweet. He said to Wu Chunze: "Brother Wu, I bought this house for fifty taels of silver.

Wu Chunze was shocked and reminded: "Brother, don't make a hasty decision, but you will blame me in the future.

Zeng Yu smiled and said, "I am not that kind of person? Haven't you seen me sweating all over me?"

Wu Chunze asked: "From my brother's opinion, what is the feng shui of this house?"

Zeng Yudao: "The Feng Shui of this house was not bad, but the city-shadowed trenches were not dug, which made the house live outside Huiwan. This is called Longbing Water, which is not auspicious."

Wu Chunze thought for a while and nodded, "This gutter was dug twenty years ago. Just one year after my cousin built the house, it turned out that the stream water was bypassed from the back of the house."

Zeng Yudao: "It's good to bypass the house after the house, and the water rosary is called the dragon's belly."

Wu Chunze said: "If you buy this house, will it cost a lot to change Lingxi into the old path?

Zeng Yudao: "There is no need to change the route. Just let someone expand this section of Huiwan. There will be some changes in the house. It will cost dozens or hundreds of taels of silver to be renovated so that people can live there, and it cannot be said that they are cheap."

Wu Chunze asked: "My brother really wants to buy it?"

Zeng Yu said: "There is no joke, but I want to go back to Yongfeng Ishida first, and after I come back, I will go through the handover procedures for the house with Uncle Ling."

Wu Chunze said: "Okay, my good brother will think more about it and ask Lingtang what you think about it. Buying a house is not a trivial matter, so be careful."

Zeng Yu nodded and said, "Brother Wu said it, I will consider it carefully."

This place is not far from Wu Village. Wu Chunze invited Zeng Yu to visit. Zeng Yu asked Sixi to go back to Zhujiafan to report to his mother Zhou. He followed Wu Chunze to Wu Village to meet Wu Chunze's father. He had lunch at Wu's house. It was dark and heavy rain. Zeng Yu and Wu Chunze wrote and enjoyed the study. He saw a piece of paper written by Jiang Yuanrui. Jiang Yuanrui's calligraphy was still good. Zhao Songxue learned about it. The paper reads "The doves are singing in the river island. A beautiful lady is a good match for gentlemen"-

Wu Chunze said: "Jiang Yuanrui loves writing this poem when he is fine. He urinates these sentences at the woman by the ditch in front of the door. When he leaves, I breathe a sigh of relief."

Zeng Yu smiled and said, "Brother Wu is a good gentleman. If it were me, he would have told him to get out of here. I am making friends, not making friends with rogues."

After chatting for a while, the rain stopped. Zeng Yu left, and Wu Chunze asked a servant to send Zeng Yu to the entrance of Zhujiafan Village.

When he returned to Zhu's house, Zeng Yu went to see his mother Zhou first. Zeng's mother Zhou asked: "Xiaoyu, have you decided to buy a house over there?"

Zeng Yu said: "The house was built twenty years ago, with strong bricks and wood, and the carvings of doors and windows are very new. It is a good house for home. As for the house that is not auspicious, my son will change it with the method taught by his uncle. I will let my mother go.

Zeng's mother, Zhou, was easy-going and her son had an idea. She listened to her son and said, "You have to take a closer look."

Zeng Yu said: "My son knows that my son will go back to Shitian with his elder brother tomorrow. We came out for a hurry last time and didn't bring a lot of clothes. I will clean up my clothes when I go back this time. It will be a good time to worship my ancestors in the middle of July.

Zeng’s mother Zhou nodded and said, “Mom won’t go back. I will go back to visit your father’s graves until Qingming Festival next year.” He said, “Don’t quarrel with your sister-in-law, everyone is close to you.”

Zeng Yu smiled and said, "I don't want to share my ancestral property when my son returns. What's the point of arguing about? My son will come back after getting the clothes. He has to buy a house to repair it. Maybe he will have to delay one or two days in the county. I have to visit Lu Hanlin and the Confucian instructor Sun, the county."

Early in the morning of July 14th, Zeng Yu, elder brother Zeng Feng, and Uncle Li, Si Xi and four others rushed to Sanjiang Wharf, took a boat back to Yongfeng, and went up against Feng River. In the evening of that day, the four masters and servants had dinner on Gunling Street. Seeing a round moon rising on the top of Dongshan Mountain, there were fourteen or five miles from Shanxi to Shitian. The journey was very familiar, so Dai Yue rushed back-

When passing Xiazhoufan Road Pavilion, Zeng Yu remembered the scene of walking in the rain on his back on Niu Niu, and sighed in his heart. It was really not easy to take that step that day. I have survived the joy, and the days in the future will only increase.

When I arrived at the Ishida Fengxi Ferry, under the bright moonlight, I saw the ferry crossing the shore. Of course, the hunchbacked ship was not there. Zeng Xun said: "Camelzibo lives on the other side of Shitou Mountain. I will ask him to take us across the river."

Zeng Yu said, "Don't call, I can hold a boat." Zeng Yu used to study at Dongyan Academy. Every time he transitioned, he asked the hunchback boatman to ask him to hold the boat. The water flows smoothly at this section of the ferry and there is nothing difficult for the boat to hold on.

The moon is clear and shimmering. When the bamboo pole is inserted into the bottom of the river, you can feel the rough sand and stone rubbing against the pole iron. One end of the bamboo pole is wearing a small piece of iron. Otherwise, a bamboo pole will be used in a few months. The pole iron often rubs against the sand and stones at the bottom of the river, shiny as snow. When it is raised on the water surface, you can see a cold light. The cold light flashes with the moon and breaks into the flowing water, like a silver fish diving into the bottom of the water. The ferry slowly approaches the opposite shore when the shiny pole iron comes out of the water.
