Chapter 14 Qin Wan
Song Jinyue led the two siblings to a rather well-known Cuixiang Restaurant on Xichang Street.

As soon as he entered the door, the young servant saw Song Jinyue's dress in a lake green skirt, and then looked at the hairpin on the hairpin. He thought to himself that this is a distinguished guest, and he was busy welcoming him to the private room on the second floor.

Song Jinyue waved her hand, "Two quiet and clean upper rooms."

"Come on, let's be objective."

The little servant was slightly arched, with the yellowed coarse sweat towel casually draped over his shoulders, smiling and leading him to the backyard.

In the small courtyard at the back of Cuixiang Restaurant, there are a dozen or so high-end guest rooms, with a rent of [-] Wen per day. If it wasn’t for the guests without some family background, they would never live here. After all, it costs [-] Wen per day. .

This level of rent is also one of the few in the capital.

Qin Sheng looked embarrassed, but he was concerned about the differences between men and women, so he signaled his younger sister Qin Wan to go forward and persuade him.

Qin Wan understood, stepped forward, tugged at Song Jinyue's sleeve, and said in a buzzing voice, "Miss, how can we brothers and sisters ask you to spend money again..."

Song Jinyue stopped in her tracks and stood under the vines on wooden stakes in the porch. The half-green withered green leaves on the vines fell with the breeze.

A lake green skirt set off the vermilion lanterns under the promenade, accompanied by falling dead leaves.

What a beautiful woman who does not eat fireworks.

Qin Sheng murmured in his heart, came back to his senses, and hurriedly turned his head aside, but secretly looked at the beautiful woman from the corner of his eye.

"Don't worry, it's fine." Song Jinyue squeezed Qin Wan's thin palm and comforted her.

The servant has already pushed open two red lacquered wooden doors carved with cloud patterns, and the two guest rooms are next to each other, with black lacquered tables and chairs inside, and a thick layer of blankets on the bluestone floor. Warm and clean.

Seeing that Song Jinyue insisted on this, Qin Sheng turned his head and stepped forward, bowed, and then said slowly: "May I ask for one more thing."

Song Jinyue followed the sound, nodded slightly, and signaled Qin Sheng to speak directly.

"In two days, I will be in the imperial examination. I don't feel at ease to keep my younger sister here. Could you please ask the young lady to stay with my younger sister for a few days?"

Qin Sheng knew that this question was a bit difficult for him, but after all, this is a crowded restaurant. Once he enters the examination room after a few days, he cannot leave the examination room for three days.

Leaving his sister here, he can't take the exam with peace of mind.

Furthermore, one less rent would reduce the drag on Song Jinyue.

Considering that she is dressed all over and has a girl by her side, it's okay for my sister to go back with her and live with the girl for two days, but it's just that it's inevitable that my sister will suffer some grievances from others.

Thinking of this, Qin Sheng looked at his younger sister. Qin Wan knew what his brother was thinking, and shook his head quickly, signaling his brother not to worry about her.

Song Jinyue thought about Qin Sheng's words, and it was really not appropriate to keep Qin Wan here.

For the Duke's Mansion, it's just a pair of chopsticks.

It's not difficult to do, and it should be done immediately.

The servant took Qin Sheng's baggage into the house, and came forward with a smile on his face, "Miss, here, the rent is one deposit and three payments."

The deposit is to pay for the damage of the utensils in the house, and the three-day payment is to worry that after someone moves in, they will default on the rent and slip away at night.

Cuixiang Building didn't have these rules before, but after encountering various situations, these rules were added.

"Just go to Song Guogong's mansion to pay the bill." Qiu Yun stepped forward and said.

The boy hurriedly put on a respectful look, nodded and bowed with a smile.

There were two daughters who were descendants of the Duke of Song's mansion, but they didn't know which one was in front of them, and it was not easy to ask too many questions, so they withdrew.

Qin Sheng was taken aback, it turned out that she was the lady of Song Guogong's mansion.

Qin Wan was also a little flustered for a moment, the one who rescued the two brothers and sisters was actually the lady of the Duke's Mansion.

"I don't know Miss's name yet..." Qin Sheng asked, at least he wanted to write down the benefactor's name, and if he had the opportunity in the future, he must repay this kindness.

"My lady is the second lady of the Duke's Mansion, so I can't reveal her boudoir name." Qiu Yun stepped forward and replied.

After all, the names of noble girls in the capital are tabooed to be leaked by any family, for fear that someone will tarnish the name of their young lady.

Only then did Qin Sheng suddenly understand, and bowed in apology.

Song Jinyue smiled and shook her head, indicating that he was fine.

When Qin Wan learned of Song Jinyue's identity, she didn't want to go with her, fearing that she would cause trouble for her by going to the Duke's Mansion, but now she has already booked a guest room, and she is too old to be with her brother. Crowded in a room.

It was only then that Qiu Yun followed Song Jinyue to the Duke's Mansion under Qiu Yun's half-push and half-right.

The doors of the shops on the street are now open, and the street is full of people.

Walking along the long street with bluestone slabs, Song Jinyue asked about Qin Wan's background.

It turned out that the two brothers and sisters had lived in Dingzhou in the border area since childhood. They had no father or mother, and the two brothers and sisters depended on each other for life.

My elder brother is studying, and my younger sister has a little understanding of medical theory. On weekdays, I rely on picking some traditional Chinese medicine to supplement my daily expenses.

Now Qin Sheng is successful in his studies, and Qin Wan has also saved some scraps of money by relying on the traditional Chinese medicine that he picked over the years.

Packed up properly, all the way to the capital.

Unexpectedly, when he arrived in the capital, Qin Sheng worried that it would be unsafe for his younger sister to go alone to the mountains outside the city to collect traditional Chinese medicine, so she was not allowed to go again. The daily expenses that were originally considered good, as the prices in the capital were twice as high as other places.

The scraps of silver saved are getting less and less day by day.

Now that the scientific examination is about to take place, the two brothers and sisters have completely lost their savings.

Qin Sheng was about to sell a few books left at home and use the proceeds to live on.

Unexpectedly, Aunt Li kicked them out today without any explanation.

Qin Wan knew some medical skills, and Song Jinyue thought about it, but she didn't say anything.

She dared not rashly bring Qin Wan into the palace to see her aunt.

After crossing the end of the long street, the black-painted nanmu door plaque of the Duke's Mansion came into view impressively.

The boy guarding the door and wearing a gray cloth jacket saw the Second Miss come back, hurriedly opened the front door, then stood with his hands down and called out "Second Miss".

Qin Wan watched timidly, not daring to say much, and cautiously followed behind Qiu Yun.

Seeing Qin Wan, the young man was stunned, and asked, "Second Miss, who is this lady?"

"My friend, come and live with me for two days."

"Yes, the little one will go and inform Manager Song right now."

Song Jinyue nodded, and then entered the Duke's Mansion through the black-painted nanmu threshold.

Stepping into the Duke's Mansion, Qin Wan opened her mouth wide open, amazed at the grandeur of the noble mansion, recalled the few simple houses in Dingzhou, and lowered her head in shame.

She didn't dare to take a breath, she knew that there were many rules in the Gaomen compound, especially the Duke's mansion.

She had heard the story of the most honorable Miss Song Er in the capital.

The aunt of the direct relative is the queen, the cousin of the direct relative is the prince, the renter's house is the Zhang family who has made great military exploits, the uncle has been stationed at the border of Dingzhou all the year round, and she is the second lady of the Duke's mansion.

There is no more noble lady than her in Manjing.

I heard that even the princess in the palace will be three points shorter when she sees Second Miss Song.

She originally thought that such a young lady who was raised on a soft pillow of gold and jade must have a cold and arrogant temperament, and a little bit of arrogance and domineering. She could only hear about such a noble person from people's comments in her life.

Never imagined that one day we could meet each other.

Today, not only met, but also rescued by her, such the most expensive girl, is far from her superficial cognition.
