A Mortal's Story of Cultivation into Immortality
Chapter 283 Rich Qin’s House
Within the capital city, the Western District is in stark contrast to the Southern District.
Contrary to the uniform high-rise courtyards in the West District, the West District is full of uneven bungalows, inhabited by poor families such as handymen and small businessmen working at the lowest level. Of course, there are also some idle people who do nothing, and down-and-out families who have moved from other districts also live here.
The East District, which is far opposite to the West District, is home to some wealthy businessmen.
Although these families cannot live in the South District because they have no official positions, the mansions and courtyards are built more magnificently than the last. They all spend a lot of money to make their houses stand out in the neighborhood so that they can outshine other big houses.
Of course, there are also a few houses with famous families, which makes it impossible for people nearby to compare. Not only do they occupy a larger area and have a richer atmosphere than others, but the families living in them are also wealthy businessmen with huge wealth.
Qin House, a super mansion located in the corner of the East District, is just such a wealthy family.
It covers an area of dozens of acres, leaving everyone who knows the price of land in the capital speechless for a long time.
Not only was the Qin family extremely wealthy, monopolizing a quarter of the copper mining business in the country of Yue, but it was also said that the head of the family was extremely powerful, and there were high-ranking officials in the court dedicated to speaking out for them.
A servant of such a noble family is naturally very confident and speaks much louder than the servants of other houses.
This is what Qin Gui, the concierge at Qin House, thought.
Every time someone came to Qin's house and wanted to see the head of the family, no matter who they were or whether they had official positions, they were all very polite to him, a small servant of the Qin family, and did not dare to offend him in the slightest.
Over time, this made Qin Gui almost feel like he was also a big shot.
Therefore, whenever someone sent a greeting note asking to see someone from the Qin family, some filial piety was naturally indispensable. Otherwise, Qin Gui would naturally not give him a good look. He might put it aside for three or four days before finally reporting it.
Of course, if some high-status people really came to visit, Qin Gui would still behave himself and behave like a loyal servant who worked hard and never complained.
He is extremely attentive to those young masters and ladies who come in and out frequently.
Not to mention, in this way, Qin Gui really made many masters very satisfied. There are even rumors that he will be promoted to a foreign affairs manager recently, and he can be released to take charge of business somewhere. After Qin Gui found out, he felt more and more happy, and he felt a little light walking these days.
Now, Uncle Qin Gui had moved a long stool and was lying on it to escape the heat in the shade at the gate. Early this morning, the head of the family went out to discuss business. The young masters and young ladies also went to the nearby Chongshan Temple with other young masters. Apart from a few ladies, only the widowed cousin was still in the house. exist.
This also allowed him to breathe a sigh of relief and take some time off with peace of mind.
When Qin Gui was a little confused by the cool breeze, suddenly a timid voice of a young man came from in front of him.
"Excuse me, is this Qin's house?"
The drowsiness that Qin Gui had just felt was shaken away by this sound, and he felt extremely uncomfortable. He couldn't help but cursed with rising anger without even opening his eyes:
"What are you shouting for? You are crying in mourning! Didn't you see that your noble master just lay down!"
After saying this, Qin Guicai reluctantly opened his eyes and looked with an angry expression on his face.
This was because he thought that the other party was a small role based on his timid voice, so he dared to treat him so recklessly.
Qin Gui finally saw clearly the person speaking in front of him. He was a man in coarse cloth who was about twenty-four or five years old. He had an ordinary and unremarkable appearance. He also had a rustic aura from the inside out. He was clearly a recent man. The country bumpkin who came to the city from that country!
Seeing this, Qin Gui felt more confident.
He sat up and said a good lesson without saying a word, as if disturbing his uncle Qin Gui's rest was committing a heinous crime and was unforgivable!
Qin Guizhi was frothing at this reprimand, which lasted for as long as a cup of tea. The rustic young man seemed to be confused by his uncle Qin, and he was speechless and at a loss. With an expression on his face, he just listened stupidly to Qin Gui’s accusation!
After a long while, Qin Gui finally vented his evil fire and finally stopped his scolding.
Then he glanced sideways at the young man, seeming to remember the other person's initial question, and asked casually:
"What are you doing in our Qin Mansion? We have no shortage of servants and servants here, so we'd better leave as soon as possible! It's not that easy to be a servant in this house! We can't take in all the people with unknown origins, so we'd better find someone first. The guarantor will tell you later!"
Relying on his past experience, Qin Gui immediately concluded that this young man, whose earthy aura had not faded away, must have a whimsical desire to find a job in Qin's house. He had seen many such people!
"I'm not looking for a job... Qin Yan is my uncle. This is a letter my family asked me to send to Uncle Qin!" The young man seemed to have woken up from the stormy reprimand. After listening to Qin Gui's words, , hurriedly took out a crumpled letter from his arms, and stammered an explanation to Qin Gui.
"What? I am your uncle!"
Qin Guizheng felt his mouth was dry, and when he wanted to pick up a nearby teapot and take a few sips, he was immediately frightened by the young man's words and spit the tea out of his mouth, and asked in shock.
"This..., I don't know, but my family asked me to call Uncle Qin like this!" The young man scratched his head, with an embarrassed look on his face.
But this time, Qin Gui no longer dared to laugh at the other party easily. If this man really had any concerns with his master, he would not get any good results.
So after hesitating for a moment, he asked carefully:
"Can you let me take a look at this letter? Please don't worry, I'm just looking at the cover of the letter and will never dare to open it!"
After hearing what Qin Gui said, the young man unexpectedly nodded in agreement, and while handing him the letter, he murmured:
"I originally wanted to give this letter to you so that you could help deliver it to Uncle Qin!"
Qin Gui took the really wrinkled letter and glanced at it quickly.
Although few servants in general can read at all, Qin Gui attended private school for half a year when he was a child, and he was able to read and write. That's why the job of concierge, the envy of countless servants, fell to him.
"Qin Yanxian's nephew kisses me personally!"
The big black characters on the envelope made Qin Gui's heart beat wildly. He seemed to be the elder of his master.
Thinking of this, Qin Gui's expression immediately changed, he tried his best to squeeze out a smile, and said to the young man:
"Sir, my master is not here, but all the ladies are in the house. Do you want to forward this letter to the madam?" Qin Gui couldn't help but change his attitude, and even his title was immediately upgraded.
"This can't be done! Uncle Qin must open this letter with his own hands!" The young man hesitated, and finally shook his head resolutely.
"That's it. How about I report back to Madam first and see how she wants to reply to you?"
Qin Gui didn't dare to let the young man leave just like that. If there was something important and he was delayed, he would be in bad luck later. But if it is left to the madam to handle, it will be none of his business. Qin Gui has been a servant for such a long time, so he still has some tricks up his sleeve.
This time the young man agreed wholeheartedly.
After Qin Gui breathed a sigh of relief, he hurriedly asked a passing family member to help him keep an eye on the young man for the time being, and then he ran towards the house.
The other servants I met were a little surprised to see him burning up his butts!
Qin Gui ran directly to the backyard, and after saying a few words to a big-footed maid who was looking at the yard, he returned to the gate with peace of mind and waited for a reply.
Qin Guigang, who returned to the door, laughed a few words with the young man, and a good-looking little maid trotted over.
When she walked up to the two of them, she glanced at the rustic young man with interest, and then dictated a message from a certain lady. Let the young man go to a side room to rest first, and wait until the master comes back to determine the authenticity of his identity. After all, there are indeed many people in the Qin family. Maybe the elder in the side room has come to visit him with something wrong!
Now that the higher-ups had already spoken to deal with the matter, Qin Gui felt at ease and continued to guard his door.
The little maid took the young man to the side room where guests were temporarily entertained.
Many people on the way saw the young man's rustic look and looked at him a few more times in surprise, which seemed to make the young man feel uneasy. He simply lowered his head and followed the little maid in a muffled manner, looking at the ground.
This made the little maid who looked back and saw such a strange young man couldn't help but laugh out loud. I looked at the man again with a smile and found him very interesting.
After placing the young man in a wing of the front house, the maid told the young man a few words not to run around, then went back to life with a smile.
As soon as the little maid left the house, the clumsy young man suddenly straightened up, and the stupidity in his eyes suddenly disappeared. His whole person exuded a faint aura of freedom and ease, without any trace of it. The rustic nature is there.
"I can't believe that the Qin family is so famous! It seems that the devil's people can't let go of such an obvious target." The young man looked in the direction outside the room, frowned slightly, and murmured to himself.
He was driving the weapon at full speed, and after more than ten days of hard work, he finally arrived at Han Li who was crossing the capital, and Qin Zhai was the person Li Huayuan asked him to protect.
However, when Han Li thought of the identity assigned to him by Li Huayuan, he couldn't help but feel depressed.
In the letter, he actually asked the head of the Qin family to assign him the identity of a descendant of a branch of the Qin family, and asked Han Li to pretend to be a poor relative from the countryside. Only in this way could he stay as the head of the Qin family house unnoticed.
Although Han Li was a little uncomfortable with his status as a poor country boy, he managed to dress up effortlessly. After all, when Han Li was a child, he was a genuine farm boy from a remote village. Han Li didn't have to think too hard about how to behave in a similar manner to others.
After Han Li closed the door of the house, he meditated on the bed and practiced Qi, hoping to improve his cultivation a little while taking care of Qin's house.
Unknowingly, after Han Li went through a big cycle, it was already evening, when someone finally knocked on the door.
Han Li perked up, but then the look on his face completely faded away, and he immediately returned to the image of a rustic, silly boy.
After opening the door, a servant dressed as a servant stood outside.
"My master has returned home. Now my wife calls you over. Come with me now!" The man said to Han Li unceremoniously, then turned around and left. It seemed that he didn't take Han Li seriously.
It's no wonder that this person is different from Qin Gui, who is guarding the concierge.
As a confidant of a certain Madam, he saw quite a few poor relatives of the Qin Mansion who came to Qin Mansion to enjoy the autumn breeze every year, so naturally he didn't take them seriously.
According to this person's opinion, most of the time the master will receive this country bumpkin for a while and send him back with some silver coins. He will not let him stay in the house for a while at all!
Han Li agreed honestly and followed this person out of the wing and went straight to the living room of Qin House.
At this time, in the living room, a graceful and elegant woman in her forties was mentioning the matter of Han Li to Qin Yan, the head of the Qin family who was sitting in the main seat.
"Since you dare to come to the door with faith, it's probably not false! It seems that some family elder has come to the door with his entrustment."
"Let's see what the requirements are. If it's not too much, try to satisfy them! Don't let our family get a bad reputation in the family for hating the poor and loving the rich. We can't lose face."
Qin Yan is about fifty years old, but because he takes good care of himself, he looks like a man in his forties and does not look old at all. Now he took a sip of bird's nest tea, moistened his throat, and spoke slowly.
