Xie Family——
The east courtyard is the residence that the Xie family prepared for the marriage of their young children. They want to have a full house of children, but they have been having only single seedlings for several generations, so it is naturally very spacious.
In the east corner of the east courtyard, two corner gates, each with a small cross courtyard, were prepared for grandchildren, and now they are empty.
In the west corner is a corner courtyard and three large private rooms. The private rooms serve as a warehouse, while the corner courtyard houses Xie Qin’s concubine Zhucao.
The main room where Yin Mingyu lives is a spacious and expansive hall. The bedroom is just inside the east door of the hall. There is also a bathroom behind the bedroom. The bathroom is almost the same size as the room in Yin Mingyu’s boudoir when she was not married.
The west inner door of the main room is connected with a study, which may be prepared for Xie Qin. The bookshelves with high walls stand against the walls, and scattered books are listed on them. There is also a tea table under the window, and a chessboard is also placed. The ashes curl up above the antique incense burner, and you can feel yourself in the scene, just like bathing in the sea of books.
The only problem is that there is no soft daybed in the study.
So Yin Mingyu had to take the book back to the bedroom and half lay on the couch to read it.
The gentle and cute servant girl peeled the lychee and lightly fed it to her. It seems she was thirsty. Another lively and lovely servant girl poured a cup of tea and sent it to her.
Yin Mingyu did not have a good life. Only one day at the Xie family did she know that she would have to be extremely difficult in the future to resist the killing of her will.
Fortunately, she is a flexible person.Yin Mingyu turns over a page with a smile on her mouth and immerses herself in the book.”
Dong Dong Dong ——”
Yin’er put down the teapot in her hand and went out. A moment later, she reported: “Young lady, Xi Lan asked to see you. She said that it was under Langjun’s order that the attendants of the East Yard should come to see you.”
When the bookmark was inserted into the page, Yin Mingyu put the book down and calmly said,”ask the person to wait in the main room.”
Yin Mingyu tidied up her appearance a little and walked out of the inner room.
The door was open, and there were four maids in the hall, and a dozen women and maids were waiting in the courtyard outside the house. From the position and clothes, they could see the rank.
As soon as Yin Mingyu appeared, they bowed and saluted, showing the style of a great aristocratic family.
There are four maidservants in the house, and Yin Mingyu knows two of them. Some of the maidservants outside the house are familiar. They are all the servants of the Eldest lady.
At the beginning, the Eldest Lady had four maidservants who were dowry girls. They were Zhu Cao, who became a concubine, Yan Zhi who waited on Xie Ce, and Xi Lan and Shi Liu in front of her.
Yin Mingyu couldn’t help but look at the other two strange maids in the hall. One is poetic and bookish, which is suitable for adding fragrance to tea, and the other is as beautiful as peaches and plums, pleasing to the eyes, and beautiful as another.
What a blessing it must be to have such a beautiful person around.Yin Mingyu reluctantly pulled back her sight and sat on the chair at the top of the main room. She didn’t mean to be close to Xi Lan and Shi Liu, so she waited for them to meet her.
Xi Lan looked as usual. She took the lead to introduce everyone respectfully. The person who she introduced went forward to meet Yin Mingyu.
The first one is Shi Liu. She has served the Eldest Lady since childhood, and she is still a noble person in the Yin family. Now she salutes with a straight face.
When Yin Mingyu didn’t see it, she turned to the other two maidservants in the hall after Xi Lan introduced her to her.
The servant girl with the fragrance of books came forward with a smile on her eyes and eyebrows. “This servant girl, Qingyu, served the husband in the front yard.”
Another maidservant who is clear with a delicate body, “maidservant Hong Chou.”
The two people bowed down together, “Pays respect to madam”
“You may rise.” On the surface, Yin Mingyu did not show any emotion. In fact, when her eyes turned, she looked at them more, especially at Hong Chou.
