Marshal, your vest is off

Chapter 53 Training Servants

Next is the girls' fans. Fans, especially folding fans, are almost always worn by men to show their elegance.

Generally speaking, women use round fans.

But Cheng Qing had no choice. Using the round fan would require a lot of skills, which these girls could not master in a short time.

So just practice folding the fan.

Then Cheng Qing played a set of fan moves combined with boxing and palm techniques, which could also be learned one move at a time.

And it’s very practical.

After finishing all the moves, Cheng Qing handed the fan to the butler and asked everyone: "Did you see it clearly?"

Everyone replied: "See clearly!"

"Just see clearly." Cheng Qing clasped his hands behind his back and walked back and forth while saying: "I will teach you the moves slowly. At the same time, you must also practice the basic skills well."

"Miss, what are basic skills?" a servant asked.

Cheng Qing said: "Of course it's the horse stance. No matter what moves you practice, the lower body needs to be stable enough. From today on, none of you will be doing the horse stance for half an hour every day. Butler, bring the incense."

"Yes, miss." The housekeeper ran to get it.

Not long after, the incense was brought. Cheng Qing asked the housekeeper to light it, and then he made a horse stance first and asked them to follow suit.

Everyone started practicing.

Cheng Qing took a fan and corrected their postures one by one.

It was okay at first, but gradually, many people began to be unable to bear it any longer, their legs began to tremble, and sweat began to form on their foreheads.

"Hold on, practicing martial arts requires hard work at the beginning. Now that you have made your choice, you must stick to it!"

Cheng Qing's serious and serious voice was very powerful, almost the backbone of everyone, and they worked hard to stick to this sentence.

The housekeeper looked a little unbearable, but looking at Cheng Qing's firm and calm eyes, he suddenly had a strange feeling. At this moment, he seemed to see not an official lady, but a general on the battlefield.

As soon as this feeling came to mind, the housekeeper shook his head and shook it away. His lady was a woman, how could she be a general?
I'm really old, I'm presbyopic.

Seeing that they were all insisting on their own, Cheng Qing felt that it was not good to push too hard the first time, so he turned around and walked towards the housekeeper.

"housekeeper."

"Miss." The housekeeper came back to his senses and looked at her.

"Butler, you..." Cheng Qing muttered in his ear for a while.

The butler nodded from time to time, and after Cheng Qing finished speaking, he said: "Don't worry, miss, the butler will definitely handle this matter for you."

Cheng Qing laughed and said, "Uncle Butler, of course I believe it. Go quickly."

"Miss, you've offended me, I'll go right away." The housekeeper strode away.

Cheng Qing looked at his leaving back, turned around and walked back in front of them, watching them change from a slightly more relaxed posture to their original posture without breaking anything.

After an hour passed, Cheng Qing announced that it was time to rest.

One by one, they collapsed on the ground.

Cheng Qing laughed and said: "You are all good. Since you shoulder the important task of guarding the Grand Master's Mansion, I can't treat you badly. I have already given instructions to the housekeeper. Starting next month, when you get your wages , will add an extra two taels of silver."

Hearing the last sentence, they all got up as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and knelt down directly to Cheng Qing, "Slave (servant) kowtows to miss!"

Two taels of silver, that's the salary that only a first-class maid from a wealthy family can get. Now that they add the original salary, it is actually more than the salary of a first-class maid. How can they not be excited about this.

Cheng Qing also came from a poor family and understands their mood.

The emperor rewarded her family with so much money at once that she would never be able to spend it all in her lifetime. It would be better to give some of it to her own people in an honest way.

She has always been generous to her own people. "Get up. You guys need to rest for a while and finish the work in the house. We will meet here later."

"Yes!"

The maids and servants got up and went to work. With the two taels of silver added, their waists are no longer sore now, and their legs are no longer painful.

Cheng Qing looked at their backs with amusement, but also felt a little nostalgic.

As for what to miss, it goes without saying.

"I don't know what they are doing now?" Cheng Qing's smile faded and he sighed slightly.

At this moment, the concierge ran over and said to Cheng Qing: "Miss, Mr. Bai is looking for you."

"Looking for me?" Cheng Qing turned his eyes slightly and asked: "He came by himself or asked someone to invite him?"

It's no wonder that Cheng Qing asked again, it was the same kind of trick, and she didn't want to do it a second time.

"Master Bai came in person."

Cheng Qing stood up and said, "Invite him to the waterside pavilion by the lake in the back garden. Also, ask someone to bring me some refreshments."

"Yes, ma'am."

……

In front of the water pavilion railing, Cheng Qing stood here looking at the lake, but she didn't have much thought about the scenery.

"What's the matter with you coming to see me?"

Bai Xiuyuan walked to her side and looked down at their figures reflected on the lake. It looked good this way.

"I'm leaving."

Cheng Qing's heart felt as if someone had grasped it with his hands for a moment, and then he felt a little empty and uncomfortable.

"where to?"

"Go home." Bai Xiuyuan replied.

"Why do you want to go back suddenly?" Cheng Qing didn't quite understand.

Bai Xiuyuan said: "Something happened at home. My father is dying and needs me to go back and take charge of the overall situation."

"How could this happen?" Cheng Qing frowned and asked, "But why are you in charge of the overall situation? Aren't you the second son of Di?"

"Qing'er, do you know why I went to the border in the first place?" Bai Xiuyuan did not answer her words, but asked such an irrelevant question.

Cheng Qing shook her head, how could she know this?
Bai Xiuyuan smiled sadly and said, "It's because of my aunt and those brothers and sisters who were born in a concubine that killed my brother, but my father, the richest man in Nanzhou, actually killed him because of his love for the culprit. This matter has passed with one eye turned a blind eye.”

"Xiuyuan..." Cheng Qing didn't expect that his life experience would be like this. A big family also has troubles with a big family, including intrigues and intrigues.

"Qing'er, I need strength to support me, can you give it to me?" Bai Xiuyuan looked at her, with expectation in his tired eyes.

Looking at his peach blossom eyes that could touch people's hearts, Cheng Qing somehow managed to reach out and hug him.

Suddenly, ecstasy flooded into Bai Xiuyuan's heart. Those peach blossom eyes could not conceal the love and surprise. He hugged her tightly. At this moment, he felt as if his heart was full. Same.

"Bai Xiuyuan, let me go! I'm going to suffocate!"

A shocking word rang out, and Bai Xiuyuan let go of her in a panic, but his expression didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

　Thanks to my friends who voted for me, don’t give up, work hard and see if you can get over a thousand recommendation votes this week.
