Chapter 59: Choosing a Yard



Chapter 59 Choosing a Yard

Yunzai waited for Mingxi to walk away, then immediately closed the door, walked up to Molan, and asked Molan with concern, "Miss, is it Wei Shuyi who bullied you?" Yunzai said with righteous indignation, and also gave Molan some advice, "When Wei Shuyi was on the boat, she pretended to be gentle, but I didn't expect that when you just returned to the mansion, you were alone with her for a while, and the mother and daughter bullied you. The master actually let them bully you and didn't protect you at all. Miss, I was sent away because of Wei Shuyi. If it weren't for Xiao Shuyi, "My mother was sent away, but you are still the master's most beloved daughter. You are the most precious girl in this mansion. With my mother protecting you, how could you be bullied? Let's go find the Third Young Master and beg my father to bring me back. When I come back, everything will be fine."

Yunzai kept chattering there, while Molan lowered her eyes in thought and never spoke. Seeing that the girl didn't respond to him after he had said a lot, Yunzai ran to Molan again and waved his hands in front of her, trying to attract her attention. Molan's eyes moved and she spoke slowly, "Yunzai, Aunt Wei didn't bully me. I am the one who feels bad for her. They all treated me very well. Mother... Mother was sent away because she did something wrong. Wait for a year or so, and when Dad's anger has subsided, my brother and I will go and ask Dad to bring Mom back. When that time comes, I will tell Mom many stories and prevent her from doing wrong again."

"Yunzai, remember, I am the fourth daughter of the Sheng family. In this mansion, no one will bully me, and no one can bully me. I can stand on my own. Yunzai, you must study hard with me in the future, listen to stories carefully, and let's not do wrong things again!" Yunzai opened her mouth in surprise, and it took her a long time to turn around and close her mouth. She was the maid that Lin Xiaoniang found for the girl. The two grew up together and had a deep friendship. She knew everything about the girl, but the girl didn't know her. She was not only the girl's person, she was also Aunt Lin's person. Before Aunt Lin left, she asked herself to take good care of the girl and to inform her in time if anything happened.

Although Lin Qinshuang was confused before she left, Molan was her daughter after all. She was sensitive to Molan's struggles and entanglements, so she asked Yunzai to take good care of Molan. She was also afraid that Molan would be deceived, so she asked Yunzai to send a message in time. But Yunzai hoped that Molan would be well. She saw that Molan got along well with other girls in the mansion, and the master did not treat the girl harshly because of Aunt Lin's absence. Everyone was very good, but Aunt Lin was not here. If Aunt Lin was here, would everyone be so good? Yunzai did not have an answer, but she did not persuade Molan again. Aunt Lin's matter would be decided based on the situation. At present, the most important thing was that the girl was happy, and she would protect the girl well!

When Mingxi returned to the room, Minglan had been sent to the next door by Sheng Hong. As soon as she entered the room, she was picked up by Sheng Hong. Sheng Hong sniffed the rose scent on Mingxi's body with lust, "Yier, you are really a beautiful woman with a kind heart and delicate temperament, and a beautiful face and lips!"

The next day, after breakfast, Sheng Hong stayed in the front hall waiting for the Lin family to come. The eldest lady took Mingxi and several Lan to the backyard to choose a yard.

Everyone followed the eldest lady's steps into the backyard. Yesterday, I felt that the house of Sheng Mansion was grand enough. Today, when I arrived at the residence of the female family, I could see its elegance. The layout of the courtyard is staggered and the space is spacious without losing its exquisiteness. Every brick, tile, grass and tree reveals a deep cultural heritage and elegant aesthetic taste.

They first arrived at the main courtyard where the eldest lady lived. This was the most magnificent courtyard in the mansion. When they entered the courtyard, the first thing that caught their eyes was an exquisite pond. The water in the pond was clear and reflected the blue sky, white clouds and the surrounding scenery, like a huge mirror, adding a bit of tranquility and depth. There was a Taihu stone in the pond. The stone body had various shapes, holes connected, and patterns crisscrossed, showing the uncanny craftsmanship and endless charm of nature, which was amazing. Going around this pond, the main house came into view. The main house was magnificent, with flying eaves, carved beams and painted rafters, showing its grandeur. Exquisite palace lanterns were hung under the eaves, adding to the luxury. No one went forward, but left the courtyard from the other side. They happened to see a small pavilion in the corner of the courtyard. There were stone tables and stone benches in the pavilion for people to rest and drink tea. The pavilion was surrounded by various flowers, and several flowers had already bloomed in early spring. After Mingxi walked out of the courtyard, he looked back. The entire main courtyard was magnificent, and every scene was carefully designed and arranged, which just fits the distinguished status of the eldest lady who is in charge of the whole family.

"Mother, have you thought about what name to give your main courtyard? My father said that my grandmother's place was called "Shou'an Hall." Hualan walked out of the courtyard and asked the eldest lady as she walked.

"Your father said before, "The orchid leaves are lush in spring, and the osmanthus flowers are bright in autumn." He said that the name Wei Rui is good, so let's call it Wei Rui Xuan!"

Wei Rui? It refers to the scene of flourishing branches and leaves. When my father and mother just got married, they were really in love. My father gave my mother's yard this name, probably hoping that it would flourish. Now... Hualan thought about her parents' story in her heart, "This is a good name given by my father!" The eldest lady was also happy to hear Hualan's words, and led everyone to continue walking forward with brisk steps.

This courtyard not far from the main courtyard has a similar layout to the main courtyard, but it is not as big as the main courtyard. The interior decoration is less grand and more graceful, making it more exquisite. There are several pomegranate trees in the courtyard. Although it is not the flowering season yet, several pomegranate flowers have already bloomed. The bright red color immediately attracted the lady. The lady liked this pomegranate tree very much. When Hualan got married, these pomegranate trees were in full bloom.

Mingxi saw that the eldest lady's eyes were always on the pomegranate trees, and seeing that the layout of this courtyard was similar to that of the main courtyard, he knew that she had chosen it for Hualan, so he deliberately helped her. The main reason was that the other girls thought it was just average, and none of them showed that they liked it very much, so he said, "I think this courtyard is very suitable for the eldest lady. This courtyard looks grand and elegant inside. Most importantly, these pomegranate trees have good meanings. Why don't you move into this courtyard?" Mingxi observed Hualan's expression to see if she liked it. But when she saw Hualan secretly glanced at the pomegranate tree, she knew that she liked it.

"Then, eldest lady, have you thought about the name of your courtyard?" Hualan chose this courtyard, and several sisters wanted to go in for a look. Mingxi also came in to take a closer look and asked Hualan casually.

"I thought of it last night when I was chatting with my mother. Let's call it "Hua Xuan." Mingxi thought that this name was really suitable for a big girl, and nodded in praise.

After the girls finished their tour, they were looking forward to the courtyard next. After going around a corridor, a quiet and elegant courtyard came into view. Everyone thought that the attic was a great place to climb up and look far away, so they all wanted to take a look. When they entered the courtyard, they found that this place was very quiet. There is a large study room with a rich collection of books. This courtyard was originally designed as an elegant residence for reading, painting and cultivating sentiments. Rulan felt that the study room was boring, and even the attic was boring. She ran to the flowers in the courtyard, picked a flower in each hand, and jumped to give one to Minglan. Her silver bell-like laughter attracted everyone's attention.

"Fifth sister!" It was Molan's trembling voice. She saw that Rulan picked orchids in her hand, felt a little distressed, and shouted in a hurry.
