dream of red mansion

what?

Xue Baochai raised her head and looked at her mother in astonishment...

……

Jia Qing was very quick in her work, and on the second day, she included in the agenda the selection of servant girls from the mansion to enter the garden.And to assign the tasks, Youshi is still in charge, but the person in charge has become Qin Keqing.

It's selfish for him to arrange this...

Originally, many people from Ningguo Mansion had already been kicked out by Jia Qing and You Shi in a different way in the past two years, and the total number of people was [-]% less than when Jia Zhen was there...

However, the total number of servants in the Ningguo Mansion is still no less than three or four hundred.Although it is much less than Rongguo Mansion, there are only three or four masters in Ningguo Mansion.Therefore, Jia Qing still felt that there was too much idle food.

He was going to take this opportunity to clean up everything in one go, put those that could be put into the garden, and those that couldn't, had to be sent to farms and shops.

And for the servants of Ningguo Mansion, especially those women and maidservants who have no power, this time is an opportunity!Not only because the scenery and grandeur of the Grand View Garden are attractive enough, but also because since Jia Qing took charge of the house, he has "practiced frugality" and "treated the servants harshly" everywhere. What kind of guards and pickets are there in the mansion? , making it more and more difficult to "mix" in Ningguo Mansion, maybe, it's time to change to a better place to develop...

This is the voice in the hearts of those who are no longer able to get along in Ningguo Mansion.

In this regard, Jia Qing is happy to see the success.The Ningguo Mansion he wants is not a paradise, but a private mansion where the chaff can be saved and the secret can be kept!All his properties and secrets will be transferred to Ningguo Mansion one by one in the future.

As for enjoying life... Anyway, others will move into the Grand View Garden soon, right...

Just when Jia Qing was busy cleaning up the old forces in Ningguo Mansion and happily preparing to move, he encountered something that affected his mood.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Jia Qing couldn't believe there was such a thing.

On the way to the gate, Jia Qing couldn't help asking again: "Is he really so stubborn?"

Lai Sheng smiled wryly, and replied: "It is said that Mr. Qin was found in Shuiyue Nunnery. At that time... the Jingxu of Shuiyue Nunnery knew that Mr. Qin was the younger brother of Grandma Rong. , I didn’t dare to make a claim, so I sent him to our mansion.”

Jia Qing listened, snorted coldly, and continued walking forward.

The main entrance of Ningguo Mansion is also so grand and solemn, the gate is closed tightly, but a small door is opened from the left.

Jia Qing stepped out from the gate, and at a glance, he saw three nuns standing under the high steps, and there were seven or eight gates of Ningguo Mansion on the steps around them.

Of course, the most eye-catching was the delicate Qin Zhong with his hands tied behind his back.

At this moment, he watched Jia Qing come out, his eyes dodged, and he didn't dare to look directly.

Jia Qing didn't go to see him, but said to the nuns: "The fairies have worked hard, please have some tea inside..."

Shuiyue Nunnery is a nunnery enshrined by Jia's mansion. Even if the nuns in it have never met Jia Qing, they have heard of it. Seeing him not only being so polite to them at this time, but also calling them fairy girls, it is a bit unnatural.

Still drinking tea!As Buddhists, they have a bad reputation for entering wealthy mansions casually, otherwise they wouldn't have to wait here all the time.

The older nun was still the leader and said: "We will hand him over to the master at the request of the host. Now that he has been delivered, it is up to the master how to deal with it. The poor nun will leave."

Jia Qing didn't ask Qin Zhong what happened, and let them leave.

"Untie the rope for him."

In this era, moral constraints are strong.As long as there is a serious violation of morality, the public will not violate the law, so it is not unusual for Qin Zhong to be kidnapped.

It's good if you don't get killed.

"Tell me what's going on."

Jia Qing didn't care about the people gathered in the alleys at all, and asked directly.

Qin Zhong's complexion changed from blue to red, sometimes ashamed and angry, sometimes afraid, finally, he suddenly knelt down on the ground and begged, "Please second uncle, save Neng'er..."

"Tell the truth!" Jia Qing's face sank, and he shouted.

Qin Zhong was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Yes, that's right, Neng'er was sick and locked up in the nunnery by them, so I went up to see her secretly, but I didn't expect them to find out..."

Shut up in a nunnery?That's right, what happened at Qin Bangye's house last time was not widely spread, but almost everyone in the Jia family knew about it.Therefore, it is normal for Shuiyuean to lock up the wise children who ruin their reputation and blaspheme the Bodhisattva.

"Smart boy is sick, how did you know?"

"A few days ago, Shan'er went to Rongfu with her master to offer incense. She found me and told me..." Qin Zhong didn't dare to hide anything.

Zhishener and Zhisuner are sisters and are about the same age.

Speaking of Shuiyue Temple, Jia Qing also thought of some bad things, so he remained silent.

Qin Zhongdao: "Second Uncle, Neng'er has been imprisoned for a long time, and this time she is ill again. If Second Uncle doesn't save her, she will die. I ask Second Uncle to show mercy..."

Jia Qing looked at Qin Zhong's cowardly expression and listened to his begging words. For some reason, Jia Qing became angry: "Bastard, you still have the heart to plead for others? Have you forgotten how your father died? If it wasn't for your sister's sake, I would have killed you long ago, so that you won't be ashamed of yourself here!"

In Jia Qing's view, he doesn't care if you want to play "fresh and refined", but playing like Qin Zhong will not only piss off his old father, but also be weak and incompetent. After the accident, he has no choice but to beg others. No matter how you look at it, it's not pleasing to the eye.

"Second uncle..."

"Okay, just kneel here and pray for your old father who died in vain!"

Jia Qing interrupted Qin Zhong, gave an order, and said to several disciples: "Take care of him, don't let him get up or leave before dark."

When Jia Qing turned around and entered the door, the doormen looked at Qin Zhong with disdain, and said mockingly: "Xiao Qin Xianggong, please!"

Although the words were polite, the tone was not polite, as if Qin Zhong didn't realize that they were going to do something.Qin Zhong's complexion changed, and he subconsciously looked behind him, realizing that he probably couldn't escape, feeling bitter in his heart, he had to kneel down facing the gate...

Inside the gate, Lai Sheng followed Jia Qing for a few steps, and said involuntarily, "Second Master, did you really make Mr. Qin kneel at the gate? I'm afraid..."

What Lai Sheng wanted to say was that Qin Zhong was a relative who devoted himself to this place no matter what, so kneeling at the gate like this would have a bad influence.

"nothing."

Jia Qing didn't think there was anything wrong with handling it this way.And said: "You send someone to talk to the old nun Jingxu of Shuiyue Temple, and say that Zhizhi can be punished, but she must not die, otherwise, I will take her as a question!"

Jia Qing doesn't care how Shuiyuean treats Zhizhi'er, anyway, he means that people must live, and I believe Jingxu will know what to do after hearing it.

The reason why he did this was because he was not willing to ignore a young life and just die in a lonely and cold nunnery, and more importantly, to give Qin Zhong a chance...

At least, the current Qin Zhong still has a trace of affection in his heart.It is indeed a little nobler than those heartless and ungrateful people who claim to be romantic, but ignore the poor woman afterwards.

Give him a chance, what happens in the future depends entirely on how Qin Zhong chooses.

"Yes, the slave is taking orders. If Mr. Qin finds out, he must be grateful to the second master. The second master is kind and tolerant, far beyond the reach of a slave."

"Okay, you go, stop flattering here!"

Jia Qing scolded.

In fact, even Jia Qing didn't realize that since his relationship with Qin Keqing got closer, he viewed Qin Zhong differently!
