Chapter 23

: Resolve the dust of the past

The Qin family was originally just a three-entry yard.

The front yard and back yard were added with a not-so-large back garden. Later, as the Qin family became more and more famous, the ancestors of the Qin family bought the vacant land next door and finally built the current Qin Mansion. Entering the gate, the front is the main room of the outer courtyard, where Mr. Qin's study is placed. The east and west wing rooms are used by the managers of all sizes on weekdays. Passing through the main hall, there is a corridor connecting the left and right.

The corridor connects to the front yard, and at the left and right ends are Qingxiyuan where Mr. Qin lives and Mingxiyuan where Mr. Qin lives. In the middle is where the Chuanhuamen is. Stepping into the east of the Chuanhuamen, the first Moon Gate is Mr. Qin's yard. Keep moving forward, and the moon gate close to the back garden is Songxi Hall. Dozens of green bamboos are planted on the left and right of the Moon Gate, which is the only green in Qin's mansion in winter.

When you cross the moon gate, you will see a screen wall carved with evergreen pine and cranes.

There is a sycamore tree near the corner of the courtyard.

Mrs. Qin lives in the main house, and the small yard on the east side has been idle. My mother Jiang asked someone to clean up, and now Baoning lives in the yard on the east side.

The small courtyard in Baoning used to be surrounded by the entire Songxi Hall, then through the back garden, and lead the east corner gate of Qin Mansion.

Baoning first lived in the small yard on the east side of Qingxiyuan. At first she lived in the east wing room. After her elder sister Yi Ning got married, she moved to the main house in the north. Later, she fell ill and didn't know what Qin Shuning said in front of Mrs. Qin. After Baoning recovered from illness, she was moved to the remote yard, while Qin Shuning moved into the small yard that originally belonged to her.

This time she lived there for three or four years. Although Baoning felt wronged, she was not good at speaking in her previous life. She had no other way except to avoid people crying several times.

It was not until she got married that she moved back to the East Cross-Court that originally belonged to her.

At that time, she felt that she had finally been in glory and was complacent. Now she thought that she was really short-sighted. Now she taught her that she would lose her strength.

Later, when I thought about my life in the courtyard, I was the most quiet and comfortable. I didn’t expect that I would just live in the small courtyard of Songxi Hall. Even when I was teaching my elder sister Yi Ning, the small courtyard was always vacant.

Yanzhi was busy in and out. He had just had fun at home, so he was naturally inconvenient to show off his face. But looking at her quickness, I thought it was very happy. In comparison, Xiangyin was much more stable. She was flipping through a booklet and flipping through it, saying, "The little Curry in our yard is not much. The girl said it would not be broken or established, so she simply cleared the little Curry. Those who were not worth a few dollars were rewarded to the sisters in the yard. They also followed the lady and all took this relationship with the master and servant."

There were two girls and one stern woman in this small courtyard to take care of her.

What Jiang’s mother meant was that if Baoning’s own girl was used together, she would bring her girl over. If she didn’t bring her, she would let the old servants stay and continue to take care of her.

Baoning left his old servant, only with rouge and incense marks.

"It's all external things, so I'll give you some rewards... Why, I don't feel sorry for you, but I feel sorry for me?" Baoning looked at Xiangyin and directed the little girls in the yard to move this and that one. The two little girls looked only fourteen or fifteen years old, and they were thin and small. I think they were not very scheming to be assigned to work in a vacant yard for several years. The sturdy woman looked around thirty years old, claiming to be Wang's surname, saying that the man in the family was the coachman of the Qin family. Once he went out, he was shocked. The man fell off the carriage and injured his leg. After Mrs. Qin found out, she arranged her here. The moon was not reduced, but her work was reduced, so that she could go home and take care of the man.

Baoning felt that he was a little wink.

These two girls and this mother Wang are both available people.

Two girls were named Jintao and the other was named Ginkgo. They both entered the mansion when they were seven or eight years old.

He was not smart enough and did not flatter the people in charge, so he was unable to work in the yard of a wife or a favored lady.

Instead, they were assigned to the kitchen worker in the courtyard. Mother Jiang mentioned the past of these two girls. It is said that once two little girls hid in the wall and wiped their tears. They were seen by Mrs. Qin. When they called them closer, they found out that the two little girls were disliked because they were young and did rough work in the kitchen. Mrs. Qin sighed and said that the family style was getting worse, so she asked Mother Jiang to go to Mrs. Qin's place to ask for someone over.

The two are young and can't do much work.

He was assigned to take care of this vacant small transcendent courtyard.

Now that the courtyard has finally welcomed its master, the three of them are naturally happy. As for the nonsense that is spread outside, they don’t believe it…

The old lady is a great charity. Since the old lady let the third girl live in Songxi Hall, it is enough to prove the third girl's goodness. Mother Jiang instructed them to only recognize the third girl as the main thing, and the only life of the third girl is Cong in the future.

Mother Wang took the lead, and Jin Tao and Yin Feng were behind, and immediately recognized the master.

Baoning handed the three of them to Yanzhi, and let Yanzhi "put on the power of the tiger".

"How can I not feel sorry for me? I have saved up so much in recent years. Now it has been dispersed... Are the girls planning to take me to drink the northwest wind?" Xiang Yin complained in a rare blunt manner. This is naturally exaggerated. Now they live in Songxi Hall, so they will naturally not go hungry. Xiang Yin just feels sorry for her own girl.

Other young ladies and girls are rewarded for every New Year and the festival.

The old lady rewards it, the wife rewards it, and the second lady rewards it.

The old man rewarded him, the old man rewarded him, and the second master rewarded him. But his girl was a fool, and he obediently praised him for the silver she received. At first, Mrs. Qin refused, and Baoning said that this was his filial piety. Later, the wife simply detained the lady's reward. Others didn't know that, and they thought that the wife was treated equally, and her girl was an honest one, and she didn't explain, so that others thought that Baoning was a slave to the money.

During the holidays, all the servants in the courtyard will be rewarded.

But where did the girl get the money to her servants? She barely rewarded a few broken silver, but was even picky about the people in the yard who were consuming inside and out.

So this time Baoning moved into Songxi Hall. The girls in the courtyard only brought rouge and Xiangyin, and let them cry. Xiangyin was gentle and did not want to say something ugly, but also felt comfortable.

It was still my own girl who was kind-hearted and still rewarded them with a full half year of monthly silver.

"Don't worry, your girl has a way."

In the past, she thought that gold, silver and yellow and white things were mediocre. Now she realized how stupid she was.

Silver is a good thing. Silver is the most reliable, more reliable than men. Since she has suffered a loss of being arrogant and noble before, she will naturally not be so stupid as to repeat the same mistakes after she has been re-made.

If you don’t destroy or establish, you will deal with the things that make her have unpleasant memories. Only when she gets them in the future will she feel at ease.

"Miss Three, the old lady asked me to send a felt to the third girl... It was cold at night, and the girl was very warm under her body." Mother Jiang held the thick felt and said loudly.
