The stunning beauty of Qing Dynasty

The girl was thin, tall, and had a fair complexion. Her prominent facial features made her big eyes look even bigger and clearer. This was not an ugly face. Although she was thin, she had a very good foundation. She had delicate eyebrows and beautiful facial features. Her eyebrows and eyes were somewhat like Lin's mother, and her nose was somewhat like Lin's father.

The girl's eyebrows were curved, her eyes were gentle, she looked at them generously and said with a smile: "Mother, father."

When they saw the woman, the Lin family members were all surprised.

They always thought that this legitimate daughter, who was raised by an ignorant peasant woman, must be thin, poor and pitiful, and that she must be inferior and introverted when she saw them in fancy clothes.

Although the girl is indeed thin, she is not inferior in character.

The girl has gentle eyebrows, beautiful facial features and fair skin. Although she is not a woman with outstanding looks, she is definitely a woman that people can like.

Looking at his eldest daughter like this, Lin's father's previous dislike for her inevitably faded a little, and he said in a slightly softer tone: "Glad that you're back, you should stay at home from now on, and tell your mother if you need anything. These... are your brothers and sisters, you can introduce yourselves to your eldest sister."

After hearing what Father Lin said, the young men sitting in their seats opened their mouths and introduced themselves one by one, regardless of whether they were willing or not.

"Hello, big sister. I'm Lin Mufeng, the sixth child."

"Big sister, I'm Lin Chenxi."

"I am Lin Wanyu."

"Lin Yanwei."

……

After the long introduction, Qingyin deeply understood how "prosperous" the big family of her biological parents was.

But what impressed her most were her twin brother and sister, who came from the same father and mother. Lin Wanyu, wearing a pink long dress, raised her fair chin and looked at her curiously, with a temperament as proud as a little swan, while her brother was like a cold puppy. Although he had some affection in his eyes, he pretended to be cold and looked at her secretly.

As for the others, Qing Yin only noticed a few handsome young men who had a hidden dislike for him and the young man next to them.

Qingyin guessed that they were probably the two sons of Concubine Xiang who was at odds with Lin's mother.

Mrs. Lin was dignified and beautiful, with fair skin and gorgeous clothes. She looked at me walking forward with tears in her eyes. She stood up, held my hand, and choked up and said, "My daughter, you have suffered..."

Qing Yin blinked.

Although this Mrs. Lin had tears in her eyes, her eyes were careless and showed a kind of disgust. She couldn't tell why the woman really liked her.

However, as a girl who grew up in the countryside and had never seen much, it was normal for her to be coaxed by Mrs. Lin.

Qingyin lowered her eyebrows and pretended to be moved, lowering her head to hide the sarcasm in her eyes.

However, since Mrs. Lin is good at pretending, Qingyin will be even better at it.

His voice was choked with sobs: "Mother, I thought I was dreaming, but I didn't expect... this is actually real, I..."

As she spoke, the pretty girl's tears began to fall one by one. The tears dripping onto her hands made Mrs. Lin freeze.

Mrs. Lin, who had been trying to save face and show her kindness in front of the master, froze in her tracks. She was so obsessed with mysophobia that she wanted to wash her hands right away and said dryly, "Well, I'm glad you're back, I'm glad you're back."

Seeing Mrs. Lin's stiffness, Qingyin concealed the triumphant smile in her eyes, pretended not to notice anything, and rubbed the sleeve that she was using to wipe her tears against Mrs. Lin's body.

Sure enough, Mrs. Lin's body became even stiffer.

She had no way of telling whether the girl in front of her did this on purpose. Looking at Qingyin's clear eyes filled with tears and the gazes coming from the surroundings, she had no choice but to endure it.

Her eldest daughter doesn't understand how to build close relationships, so she will teach her more in the future.

Looking at Mrs. Lin's patience, Qingyin nodded secretly with satisfaction.

Seeing the loving mother and filial daughter beside him, Lin Nanxu had a barely perceptible smile in his eyes.

A little fox with claws is covered with a soft and innocent rabbit skin.

Lin Wanyu, the "naive and innocent" girl who doesn't seem to be angry with her mother,

Seeing her mother getting intimate with her so-called second sister, Lin Wanyu, her mother's most beloved daughter, could no longer sit still. She pouted, pulled up her mother's clothes, and said coquettishly, "Mother..."

Hearing her little daughter's coquettish voice, Mrs. Lin had a reason to untie Qingyin's dirty (? ) sleeves, and she fled away from Qingyin's tears of emotion like a fly.

He patted his little daughter beside him tenderly and said softly, "What's wrong, Yu'er?"

Lin Wanyu looked at Madam Lin jealously, buried her head in her arms and said, "Mother, now that you have a sister, you don't care about me anymore."

"Look at you, little girl. You are jealous of your own sister." Mrs. Lin poked her smooth forehead angrily.

His eyes then fell on Qing Yin, and he smiled and said, "Child, don't think too much. This little girl was born two years after you lost her. She is very spoiled and has a childish temper."

Qingyin lowered her eyes and smiled: "My sister is innocent and cute, I like her very much, how can I be angry?"

The harmonious atmosphere among the few people made Lin's father nodded with satisfaction.

Looking at Qingyin, he said, "Well, now that the child is back, there are plenty of opportunities to exchange pleasantries. You two can chat later."

"However, my child, now that you are back, you should change your name to Lin Qingqing from now on." Father Lin said without any doubt.

From beginning to end, Lin's father and mother never asked about Qingyin's name when she was left among the people.

High above her, looking down at her haughtily.

Her slender eyelashes trembled slightly, Qing Yin lowered her eyes, nodded obediently, and replied: "Thank you, father, I understand."

However, compared to the original body's casual name, Hu San Ya, Qingyin did not object to the name directly given by Lin's father.

Lin Qingqing is much better than Hu Sanya.

Father Lin's expression became more and more relaxed. "Well, Qingqing must be tired after the journey back. Come with us to have dinner first, and then let your mother take you to your yard to have a good rest."

"Yes, father." Qingyin nodded obediently.

During lunch, only a few direct descendants of Lin's father and mother were left at the table. Qingyin ignored the curious looks from her two younger brothers and sisters, Lin Wanyu and Lin Yanwei, and picked up her favorite dishes from the table and started eating.

The movements are quick but not rude, and there is even a unique beauty in the manners.

The two siblings widened their eyes in surprise, not understanding how their cheap second sister managed to eat so fast and not be rude at all.

Seeing the two siblings losing their composure, Mother Lin was satisfied, but she also gave them a look to remind them.

Lin Wanyu and Lin Yanwei then retracted their gazes and ate their meals peacefully, but their eyes would occasionally glance at Qingyin.

Compared to the two siblings who looked surprised, Lin Nanxu was much calmer. The elegant young man sat in the lower left position, taking everything in calmly.

When the young man saw the girl working hard at her meal, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, and he quickly pursed his thin lips, looking like a cold and aloof immortal again.

She enjoyed her meal.

After dinner, Qingyin let Lin's mother take her to her own yard.

The courtyard that Lin's mother brought her to was a little far from the main hall of the East Courtyard, but the courtyard was spacious and there were several pear trees planted in the courtyard. Following Qingyin's line of sight, she could even see a few plump and green pears poking out of the courtyard. Although it was far away from the bustling East Courtyard, this courtyard was indeed unique and quiet.

Qingyin was not surprised to see the same Yunjin Pavilion plaque as the original one.

She looked at Lin's mother with a delighted look: "Thank you, mother. I like this yard."

Looking at the girl who looked so happy on the surface, a trace of contempt flashed in Mrs. Lin's eyes. After all, she was raised by an ignorant peasant woman and had no knowledge, yet she was so fond of a remote courtyard.

Madam Lin coughed a few times, but smiled and said, "Well, as long as you like it, this courtyard is a little far away, but it is quiet. I will find a few maids and servants to help you learn the etiquette of the ladies in the capital. You should study hard."

"Okay, mother." Qingyin nodded obediently.

It was not until Mrs. Lin left that Qingyin turned around and looked at the two maids and two servants that Mrs. Lin had given her in the yard.

Qingyin looked at them with a smile on her face: "Please introduce yourselves."

Several people looked at each other, and one of the young maids took the initiative to introduce herself: "Hello, Miss, my name is Xiang Lian."

With Xianglian as the foundation, others also introduced themselves one after another.

"The servant Lily."

"My servant is Xiaoquanzi, my servant is Daigui."

……

Compared to the lively and proactive Xiang Lian, the other three were more restrained. Qingyin noticed another maid who, although she had a pretty face, was indeed very introverted and spoke her own name in a very low voice.

Qingyin compared the memories of her original body in her previous life. She didn't know if it was because she and her original body came at different times. In her previous life, her original body didn't have the leader Xianglian, who was smart and generous, but Lily, and the honest Xiaoquanzi and the cunning Dai Gui.

Recalling the previous life, Dai Gui, who hid his original body and was not valued by Lin's father and mother, was arrogant and led other servants to not only resell his own jewelry, but also secretly hide the silver money of the original body every month. Qingyin's eyes flashed a cold light.

This time, this guy hasn't done anything bad, so Qingyin doesn't mind letting him go for now.

Looking at the people with different thoughts, Qingyin said without question: "Okay, Xianglian will become my personal maid, and you will be in charge of the arrangements for the others."

The baby-faced Xiang Lian was delighted, and she smiled with dimples on her face, "Thank you very much, Miss. I will definitely live up to your expectations."

Although the young lady in front of them did not seem to be as valued as the master and the mistress, she was still a lady after all. Being able to stay with the eldest lady and become her chief palace maid was something Xiang Lian could not have dreamed of before, as she had only relied on her sweet words to become a fire-making maid in the kitchen.

Dai Gui lowered his head and looked at Xiang Lian, who was appointed as a personal maid, with some hostility in his eyes. She was just a maid in the kitchen, but she was valued so much by this young lady.

Dai Gui looked down on Qing Yin, who had chosen the person, and he also felt a little more contempt for her.

Qing Yin saw Dai Gui's discontent, and said with a smile on her lips, "Okay, I'm tired, you all go out."

"Yes, ma'am."

……

As the few people left the bedroom, Qingyin also lay down.

After spring, the hot weather seems to bring another ambiguous flavor, which makes people's hearts beat up and down, trying to find something interesting.

A burst of hearty laughter came from a private room on the second floor of Yucui Tower in Beijing.

Wang Minghuai looked at the indifferent young man sitting opposite him, his thin lips moved slightly, and he smiled: "That real daughter has come to the Lin Mansion, right? Our Nanxu Master is not afraid that the daughter will be favored by Minister Lin and Madam Lin and come to suppress you?"

"After all, you are not their biological child."

The stern-faced young man sitting opposite had black hair, sword-like eyebrows, thin lips and a turned-up nose, and a tall figure. Although the color of his eyebrows and eyes was light, it just fits the young man's own characteristics. He is like a snowflake falling in winter, cold and indescribably attractive.

The person who asked him was his good friend, Wang Minghuai, the legitimate son of the imperial censor. He also had a good-looking appearance. Compared with the young man with a cold temperament, the man was like the sun rising in winter. Although it was shining, it did not reveal a trace of warmth.

Lin Nanxu didn't even look at his friend across from him. He just said coldly, "Whatever."

"Even if I didn't have the Lin family background, I would still go to the capital."

This is Lin Nanxu's pride and his deep-seated confidence in his own talent.

Wang Minghuai smiled and gave Lin Nanxu a thumbs-up: "Well, I knew that our eldest son Nanxu has this ability."

Wang Minghuai picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "However, Master Nanxu, you should have also seen the real daughter, right? What does she look like? Is she pretty?"

"Appearance is just an external thing, so don't make irresponsible comments about it."

“You are just honest.”

Lin Nanxu paused, and suddenly thought of that pair of clear and calm eyes.

Wang Minghuai didn't really need to know what the real daughter looked like. Seeing that his friend was unwilling to answer, Wang Minghuai gave up his curiosity and concentrated on tasting his tea.

Today, with the aroma of tea in the air and having read gossip about his friends, Wang Minghuai felt satisfied.

……

"Miss, are you awake?" In the clean and tidy courtyard, a maid in a green dress came to the door with a bowl of hot porridge and asked softly.

"come in."

A soft and gentle female voice came from inside the room. Xiang Lian's ears turned slightly red. She felt that the eldest lady's voice was really the most beautiful voice she had ever heard, as sweet as honey.

Qingyin got up from the bed, wearing her inner clothes, and didn't feel cold at all even in the early summer.

Xiang Lian couldn't bear to see her young lady catching a cold, so she quickly put down the round plate in her hand and hurriedly and quickly changed Qingyin into a plain green lotus dress.

"Although it is summer, you should not stay cool. If you get a fever, you will feel uncomfortable."

The chattering little maidservant talked as she worked.

Qingyin took the lecture honestly and didn't refute that she had just gotten up.

"Well, I see."
