Medicine Girl Jingjing

Chapter 169 Jingjing got the first floor of the first courtyard (3)
"Miss, it's not that the butler favors one another, but that the number of servants in the mansion is only [-]% of the servants." Li Huan stopped when she saw that Li Jingjing was interested, and continued: "The butler said that there will be dozens of servants in the mansion in a few days. By then There are more servants waiting for the lady."

Li Jingjing asked curiously: "So what did you do in the Northland to find out information?"

Li Huan said in a low voice: "This servant is strong and knows some martial arts. At the beginning, he was ordered by the old master to sell tofu in Qingcheng Market, and later he joined the theater troupe to sing martial arts in the General of the Xiongnu's mansion."

Li Jingjing was surprised and said: "Didn't the opera troupe forbid women to sing opera?" She said in her heart: Grandpa Li Li was assigned to the wrong person, Li Huan should be assigned to grandma who loves to listen to operas.

She didn't know that what Li Huan sang was from the Northland opera, which was completely different from the Huagu opera that Qu listened to.

Li Huan explained: "This dynasty is like this, but the Xiongnu dynasty has always been open, and there is no such ban."

Li Jingjing looked at Li Xi, who said softly: "The embroidery work of the servant girl is not bad, and she has been working as an embroiderer in the Xiongnu Governor's Mansion in Qingcheng."

Li Jingjing raised her eyebrows slightly, shook her head and said, "I don't like embroidery, so don't teach me."

Li Xi's Jinyu Bubbles eyes were gentle, and said: "Your servant obeys Miss's orders."

"Their names are Wanglian and Wangyue. They are Taiming Guanwu Daoist nuns who are responsible for protecting my safety." Li Jingjing looked around at the four of them and said solemnly, "You should get along well in the future, and don't fight and make me angry."

Li Huan and Li Xi said at the same time: "Miss, don't worry, we will live in harmony with the two fairies."

Wanglian and Mochizuki just smiled silly.Li Huan and Li Xi saw that the two women were pure-hearted, and it was best to deal with such people.

The five of them walked through a [-]-square-meter green bamboo forest and came across a three-way intersection. They walked for more than ten feet from the intersection on the right. Plum trees were planted on both sides of the bluestone road.

In the cold winter, nearly a hundred plum blossoms are in full bloom.

The front line of sight suddenly opened up, and it turned out to be an artificial lake of more than ten acres. In the center of the lake was a red-roofed octagonal pavilion, and weeping willows and hibiscus were planted on both sides of the lake. The scenery in summer must be beautiful.

Li Huan took the initiative to say: "Miss, this lake is called Xinghu Lake, and it looks like a star from a height. Steward Li Li followed the old master's instructions and pulled out the Yueqing Courtyard, Wangxing Pavilion and a garden by the Xinghu Lake for you."

Looking at the green lake, Li Jingjing felt even happier. When she heard that there was a yard by the lake, an attic, and a garden, she couldn't help but said happily, "I'll take a look at these three places before taking a lunch break."

Li Huan led the way, pointed to several buildings built around the lake, and said, "Xinghu Lake is the largest artificial lake in the mansion. There are five yards, two attics, and two gardens built around the lake. It is next to the Yuejing Courtyard where the old man and the old lady live, and the Yuexuan Courtyard where the old man and the lady live."

Li Jingjing said with satisfaction: "Then it will be convenient for me to visit my grandparents and parents every day."

Li Huan pointed to the west and said, "Yueqing Courtyard is the closest courtyard to the west gate of the mansion, and it's less than twenty feet away from the path."

Li Jingjing asked: "How many doors are there in our mansion?"

"Except for the main entrance you just came in, there are three side entrances to the west, north, and south." Li Huan looked respectfully, and said, "I heard from Steward Li Li that there are often urgent patients asking for medicine, so I specially marked a block beside the west gate. In the open space, the medicine building is already being built, and it will be completed in three days. If there are patients in the future who need medical treatment, they will wait in front of the medicine building. It is also close to you from Yueqing Hospital."

Li Jingjing was overjoyed, she couldn't help but nodded and said: "Grandpa Li Li is really considerate."

The Yueqing Courtyard is built along the lake, and inside it is a house with three entrances, each with nine rooms, a yard with flowers and trees in the front, and a yard with flower gardens and swings in the back.

The house is furnished with pure mahogany furniture, with centuries-old antique porcelain, and the calligraphy and paintings of famous people are hung in the study room. The level of luxury is similar to that of the other courtyard where Qin Minye lives, and one rank lower than the Tanzhou Duke's Mansion.

Li Jingjing thinks this is already very good.

The Wangxing Building is built next to the building, with a total of five floors. Originally, the King of Hunan kept some treasures on the top floor of the building, and specially brought distinguished guests to enjoy the lake and watch the moon and stars upstairs for fun.

Now there are no treasures or expensive furniture in the building, only some simple mahogany furniture, which is suitable for Li Jingjing to invite Tanzhou ladies to hold a tea party.

"This lake is really in the shape of a star." Standing on the fifth floor, Li Jingjing can get a close-up view of the entire Hou Mansion through the windows opened in all directions. Yuelu Mountain, Tanzhou Academy with a long history, and the prosperous Tanzhou City Mansion more than ten miles away.

Li Huan pointed to a large piece of land between Xinghu Lake and the bamboo forest, and said, "Miss, that piece of garden is yours."

Li Jingjing rubbed her eyes and said doubtfully, "It's an open space with nothing, so it's called a garden?"

Li Huan and Li Xi couldn't help laughing.

Li Huan stepped forward to pick up Li Jingjing and walked downstairs, and said softly: "Miss, when Steward Li Li brought his servants here a few days ago, there was nothing here. Steward Li Li thought you like to grow medicinal herbs, so he specially put this The garden is free, and you can plant whatever you want in it."

Li Jingjing was shocked, no wonder all the furniture was new, and the soil in the bamboo and plum groves were newly turned. It turned out that He Dong gave the Li family an empty mansion, and Li Bing sent Li Li to rebuild everything in the mansion.

She calculated that the 10,000 cans of medicine for Li Bing alone were worth [-]+ taels of silver. If Li Dong paid the money, it would be enough to buy the Marquis Mansion, but according to Li Bing's tone, it was a free gift.

The He family has always had a lukewarm attitude towards the royal family, and privately hinted a lot about the descendants of the Li family, but He Jingyan was an exception.

Under the influence of the He family, Li Jingjing also avoided the royal family, so she didn't get close to He Yiyun when she was in Qujia Village.

She murmured in her heart: The emperor really knocked on the door.

Li Huan seemed to hear Li Jingjing's heartfelt voice, and said with a smile: "In addition to granting the Marquis Mansion, His Majesty also bestowed two thousand acres of land, one hundred mountains, and two hundred military slaves."

Li Xi added: "The servant girl heard from Steward Li Li that [-]% of the land is fertile land, [-]% of the mountains can be planted with fruit trees, and the number of military slaves is thousands."

Li Jingjing's eyes lit up, and she said with a smile: "Where are the land, the mountains, and the military slaves?" She said in her heart: "The emperor is about the same."

Li Huan replied: "Most of the land, mountains, and military slaves are around Xiangjiang Temple and Qingyun Temple. The land closest to our mansion is more than 100 mu, and it is next to Tanzhou Academy."

"I want the one hundred acres of land." Li Jingjing said excitedly, "I will tell my grandpa tonight that I want to grow medicinal herbs and raise medicinal animals there."

Li Huan said with a smile: "Miss, Li Li has already said that the hundred mu of land is for you, and you have been assigned twenty households of military slaves."

Li Jingjing was very happy, seeing Li Xi and Li Huan were pleasing to the eye, and said: "I'll go and see my field tomorrow. Even though it's winter, I can grow some medicinal herbs." She asked again: "Where is my medicinal beast?" Wasn't it already delivered?"
