As if seeing Fang Xue's eyes, Gong Qingyu stepped gracefully, swaying the fan in his hand, like an ancient lady enjoying the flowers in the garden.
"This place was built in 1845. After the "Huangjiang Treaty" was signed, the old Huang Xuanguo was forced to open the concession to foreigners, so a Frenchman named Min Tini came to Zhonghai City and built this mansion as The French consulate in Huang Xuanguo.
After the downfall of the Qing court, he was bought by another diplomat as a separate residence. "
"Later, it was bought by a warlord named Sun Chuanfang in the Republic of China and used it to—"
Gong Qingyu paused, glanced at Li Yun with a reddish face, and continued: "Used as a house for his concubines."
Li Yun suddenly realized that several aunts and wives... are they just Jinwu Cangjiao?
"Sun Chuanfang..."
Fang Xue couldn't help but look around again. This is the former residence of a historical celebrity. Although Sun Chuanfang is not a good person, he has appeared in modern history books after all.
Now she actually came to visit the former residences of historical figures, no, no, it's not like this, it's different from a tourist visit.
This mansion was completely occupied by a confidant of her husband, who used it as a home.
History has changed, time has changed, the once romantic figure has passed away, and the present one has taken his place.
Will others come here in the future? Will people today also become history in the future?
A kind of vicissitudes of life, the unpredictable touch of the world, welled up in Fang Xue's heart.
"Here is a rockery built a hundred years ago. There is a big tortoise in it."
Everyone walked through the garden in front of the mansion and came to the rockery pool. Gong Qingyu continued to introduce: "It was put in the pond when the mansion was built. After several owner changes, it is still in the rockery pool. Eat and drink and live."
With that, Gong Qingyu lowered her body, letting a head of blue silk fall on both sides of her shoulders, she stretched out her delicate hand and spooned half a spoonful of water in the pool water, and poured it into the rockery:
"Da Hei, come out!"
Fang Xue stayed for a while, the classical beauties' movements, expressions, and tone in front of her were really like ancient ladies frolicking in the garden. Looking at Gong Qingyu in ancient costume, she even gave her a kind of Back to the ancient illusion.
Gong Qingyu...it's no wonder Li Yun likes her, she is so beautiful and temperamental!
"Big black?"
The corner of Li Yun's mouth twitched, "Qingyu, your ability to choose names doesn't seem to be very good."
He was rolled his eyes by Gong Qingyu again.
"It's not my name, it was named by the French nobleman Min Tini!"
Gong Qingyu splashed water vigorously with his hands again, trying to call out the big tortoise: "He was not good at Chinese at the time, so he called Dahei. Later, the group of aunts and wives didn't change it, so the name was used."
"It's actually quite appropriate." Gong Lianyi added.
It's really appropriate.
Everyone saw the big tortoise. It was hiding in a cave under the rockery. Gong Qingyu called it for a long time. It was a big tortoise that was black and big, and it was the size of a millstone, so it slowly poked its head out to take a look. She glanced.
Then he lay down on it to bask in the sun.
"I'm furious!"
Gong Qingyu poured a handful of water over again, muttering: "It won't give me any face, one day I will make you stew in soup!"
"Alright!" Gong Lianyi pulled her amusedly, "Why bother with a tortoise. People who don't know think you are a little tortoise."
"Hahaha!"
