The Lin family was in a trance, silently. Have they become landlords? Can it not shock and amaze people?
The Lin family should have reached the place in half a quarter of an hour, but they were shocked. They all walked with the same hands and feet. It took more than half the time to reach the front door of the house. When they saw the majestic vermilion gate and the towering courtyard wall, the Lin family was not in a trance, but their feet were trembling in shock.
Lin Ke'er looked at Old Man Lin and said, "Master, this courtyard used to be a garden. Although it is a three-entry courtyard, it is designed according to the garden. It is very elegant. The three-entry courtyard is divided into different small courtyards. I have calculated If all the family members live in it, it will be a mistake. I will name it Linyuan. What do you think?"
Old man Lin read it to himself twice before arriving: "Well, since it is a garden, it is appropriate to name it Linyuan. We are neither officials nor country squires, and our mansion is not suitable. Linyuan is good."
Lin Ke'er stepped forward and knocked on the door. The door creaked open. The middle-aged man walked out of the side door. When he saw it was Lin Ke'er, he hurriedly raised his hands: "Young master, you are back."
"Well, what's your name? First open the door to welcome the old man, old lady, eldest lady, second lady, and third lady. After a while, the courtyard door is closed. Then go and call Miss A Cui to see me. By the way, call her to the house. People, please come to the main courtyard."
"Master, young Deng Ping, I have met the old man, the old woman, the first lady, the second lady, and the third lady. Sir, please wait a moment." Deng Ping saluted and hurried to open the door.
Deng Ping welcomed Lin Keer and his family into the house, quickly closed the door and went to find Li Cuizhu.
Lin Keer took his family to visit the house, and met many newly bought servants along the way. The servants all bowed respectfully, and Lin Keer was very satisfied with this.
After walking around the yard, Li Cuizhu hurried back from outside. I heard that Lin Keer came back with his family. She hurried to the main courtyard.
Li Cuizhu was led by Deng Ping, and took the servants he had bought before to the main courtyard. Soon, a group of servants bought yesterday were standing in the main courtyard.
"Girl, you are back. Are these the old man, the old lady and several ladies?"
Lin Keer nodded, and Li Cuizhu quickly led a group of servants to salute: "A Cui has met the old man, the old lady, and several ladies."
Old Man Lin suddenly transformed from a farmer into an old man who called on his slaves. He was a little uncomfortable. However, Old Man Lin had also been a young master when he was young, so he didn't feel much about it. He waved his hands and said: "Everyone, get up."
Everyone stood up, stepped aside, and lowered their eyebrows. Lin Keer knew not to go too far. The family needed time to adapt, so she said: "I am the third young lady in this family. I dress up as a man just for the convenience of going out. You just arrived in Linyuan yesterday and became a member of the Lin family. From now on, you have to abide by the rules of the Lin family. Without rules, there will be no success.
What you have seen today are only some of the masters of the Lin family. Except for the old master and the old lady, these are the eldest lady, the second lady, and the third lady. Soon the fourth master and the fourth wife will move in, and tomorrow the eldest master, the second master, and the third master will also move in. As usual, other young masters and ladies will come to Linyuan one after another. I hope you know who your master is.
In addition, I will make some arrangements for you now. In the big kitchen, a few cooks and cooks will temporarily supervise you. After a while, I will teach you how to cook. This is not to say that your cooks have questions, but that I will teach you how to cook. Choose one of you to serve in the restaurant under my name. Deng Ping is temporarily in charge of the official family of Linyuan. "
"Deng Ping, I will call you Uncle Ping from now on. I know a little about you, and I also know that you are loyal to your former master. But now that you have entered Linyuan, I also hope that you will recognize who your master is. If I have the opportunity, I will Here you go, firstly, I admire your character and ability, secondly, Linyuan has just started, I am short of manpower, I can help you heal your legs, my request is very simple, be loyal to me for ten years, what do you think after ten years? My master is not worthy of your loyalty, so I can return your deed of betrayal and let you redeem yourself."
Deng Ping knelt down when he heard this. He was not a foolish and loyal person. He could give up his children in exchange for the young master and young lady in the third room of his master's family. Is that because of the master and the madam? The young master and the young lady are both kind-hearted people and never criticize their servants harshly. Instead, he treats his servants like family,
He thought that he would never meet such a good master again, but he never expected that he could meet such a good master now. He trusted and valued him, did not dislike his current body, and even treated his legs. How could he not be happy and moved? If for no other reason than for his old mother, young son, young master and young ladies to live a comfortable life, he should be loyal to the young master, no, the young lady.
"Thank you very much. Miss, I will do my best to fulfill my responsibilities and live up to the expectations of the third lady."
"That's it, everything in the garden is left to you to take care of. The warehouse is temporarily empty. Here is the key. Here is a thousand taels. You take it and put it in the accounting room. The old woman is the housekeeper of this house. You If you have anything to do, you can go to the old lady. If you need to buy something for each house, you can communicate with the lady of each house. Some properties will be added to the garden one after another, and the warehouse will slowly fill up. Well, there will also be some more servants and maids added to the house. I will communicate with you when the time comes, and you will report everyone’s names to me later, and I will name them one by one. I’ll just stay here for today, and let’s disperse.”
"Yes, Miss Third."
Everyone left, but Deng Quan still stood there and bowed: "Miss Third, the garden is relatively empty now. Should I prepare some quilts and cloth first?"
"Well, you'll have to wait and see. How many people and objects will be added to each room? Finally, you can keep a ledger for me and hand it in every month. I will send the names of the servants over later and I will give them names."
"Yes, third girl, old lady, old lady, ladies, if you have anything to do, please send the younger one, but the younger one will leave first."
Deng Ping could roughly tell that everyone in the main family, except for the third girl, was somewhat uncomfortable. He estimated that the third girl would be the future head of the family, but he would not be disrespectful to the other masters of the main family. This is the way to stay safe.
After Deng Ping stepped back, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Lin Keer looked at the tea soup in the bowl, her eyes dim and unclear. Seeing no one said anything, she sighed in her heart. It felt like a farmer was used to it and suddenly became a rich household. , in addition to being a little pretty, I’m also a little unconfident.
"Grandma, grandma, how do you feel? Do you feel uncomfortable after experiencing the life of a master?"
"Indeed, Ke'er, when my mother-in-law is called madam, I feel uncomfortable all over."
"Me too. My family has been a farmer for generations. Although life was easier when I married your uncle, I didn't enjoy it as much as a slave. On this day, my heart dropped from the sky to the bottom of the valley, and then flew from the bottom of the valley. It’s so exciting to go up to the sky.”
"Ke'er, you bought so many slaves and also Zhuangzi. Isn't the money enough to spend? I still have the thousand taels of gold coupons you gave me. I can take them back for expenses." Ms. Liu took out the purse and handed it to Lin. Kerr.
