Chapter 2501 Self-cultivation and good housing
After sighing, Lin Wan'er, accompanied by Sister Xian, climbed up to the highest courtyard.
When she stepped into this courtyard, she realized that it was more pleasing to her than she had just imagined.
The bricks, tiles, plants, and trees here are actually very elegant, and there are even patches of moss growing on the bluestone ground of the courtyard.
In the corner of the courtyard, there is also an exquisitely designed outdoor hot spring pool. The rockery beside the pool is lifelike, and many bonsai plants are planted, which looks like a miniature real mountain.
Sister Xian followed and introduced to her: "Miss Lin, this hot spring pool is connected with the natural hot spring water of Jinling Tangshan. The hot spring water is transported up the mountain from the underground pipeline. There will be a slight loss in the pipeline, but we have secondary heating equipment in the equipment room below, which can ensure that the heated hot spring water can be used outdoors even in the coldest season of winter.”
Lin Wan'er asked in surprise, "There are natural hot springs in Jinling?"
"Yes." Sister Xian nodded, and said seriously: "There is only one hot spring in Tangshan that is truly natural and healthy. The pipeline comes here, but the uppermost courtyard has never been used, and the husband and wife are old, so they only live on the bottom floor every time they come.”
Lin Wan'er nodded lightly, and said, "I want to go to the room to have a look."
Sister Xian hurriedly said, "Miss Lin, this way please!"
After finishing speaking, she led Lin Wan'er to the door of the three brick-roofed houses.
From a distance, it looks like three rooms, one tall and two short, but in fact, the main entrance is in that two-story tile-roofed house, and the two rooms on the left and right are rooms with doors that open inward.
After entering the door, you can see that it is actually a very elegant and simple suite. The first floor of the high tile house is the entrance hall, which can also be regarded as the living room. The area is about [-] square meters. To the left, it is pure Chinese style. Study room and dining room, to the right are western-style structure, Chinese-style bathroom and cloakroom.
The only bedroom is on the second floor of the high tile house. After going up the pure solid wood stairs, you can see the exquisite internal structure and design of the second floor. All the furniture are made of high-quality huanghuali wood, and the craftsmanship is exceptional. Exquisite, it immediately hit Lin Wan'er's aesthetics.
Since the second floor also has an area of more than 60 square meters, this bedroom can be regarded as surprisingly large. There are two circular windows on the south and north sides. The south side is a couch for reading, and the north side is a sleeping couch. A desk with pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
Sister Xian introduced to her from the side: "Since it was built, it has been kept in this state. The husband asked us to clean and maintain it every day. The windows should be clear and clean without any dust. Later, we remodeled the hidden air conditioner and fresh air on the roof. There is also a constant humidity system to ensure that the dust from the outside world is isolated as much as possible, so as to prevent the furniture from becoming moldy and hairy and producing peculiar smells due to excessive humidity."
Lin Wan'er asked curiously: "Your husband has spent so much time building such a separate courtyard, why has no one lived there?"
"I don't know either." Sister Xian smiled slightly and said, "Mister just ordered that the maintenance should be focused on here, and when daily maintenance is required, I must be present to supervise it personally. As for the others, I never told me about it."
"Okay." Lin Wan'er nodded thoughtfully, and then sighed: "This is really a good place to cultivate one's self-cultivation. If possible, I would like to live here for 20 years or even longer."
Sister Xian smiled slightly, and said respectfully: "Mr. has already said that if Miss Lin likes, she can live here forever. As long as you live here, you are the real owner of this place."
Since Sister Xian is the housekeeper here, Qiu Yingshan did not deliberately act in Lin Wan'er's capacity.
When picking up the plane, Sister Xian could tell that her husband and wife respected Lin Wan'er very much, it could even be said to be respectful, so Lin Wan'er could never be a relative or even a junior of the husband and wife.
Moreover, she knows best how much the husband attaches importance to this highest courtyard, why everyone must let her follow when they come here, it is because the husband does not want any of the servants to damage the furnishings and arrangements here.
But now, he generously gave this place to Lin Wan'er to live in. From this, it can be seen that Lin Wan'er holds a very heavy weight in his heart!
At this time, Lin Wan'er asked Sister Xian: "By the way, how many servants are there here?"
Sister Xian replied: "There are sixteen aunts who work, four bodyguards, and two drivers, a total of 22 people, including me, a total of 23 people."
Lin Wan'er asked in surprise, "There are so many aunts?"
"Yes." Sister Xian replied: "There are four aunts who are in charge of washing and cooking, eight aunts who are in charge of sanitation and maintenance, and four aunts who are in charge of gardening, but there are also some who are more flexible. Temporary deployment is possible."
Lin Wan'er asked again: "Where do these servants come from?"
Sister Xian said: "They are all from Malaysia. They were carefully selected from the servants at home when I came here."
"Understood." Lin Wan'er nodded lightly, and felt a little relieved.
These people are all from Malaysia and have served the Qiu family for many years. They are basically innocent domestic slaves.
Although the nature of domestic slaves no longer exists in the mainland, in Southeast Asia, this tradition is still preserved in the wealthy families.
For the real rich in Southeast Asia, the ratio of domestic servants to their own family members can sometimes reach five to one or even higher.
In order to ensure stability and reliability as much as possible, and to reduce personnel turnover, they often adopt this kind of domestic slavery. They recruited the other party to work at home when he was a teenager, and stayed at home until he retired, and then the family served as a slave. His old age will die.
Most of these servants who chose house slaves were from poor families, and a large family member needed to support them, so one of them was sent to a wealthy family as a servant.
There are many advantages to being a servant. In my family, I eat well, live well, and earn a lot of money, and almost all the money I earn can be saved to subsidize the family. The family does not need them to have high education and proficiency in other languages. They work hard and diligently.
In the economically underdeveloped Southeast Asian region, many families and individuals yearn for such a job.
Therefore, the vast majority of servants also regard domestic slavery as a lifetime job, and are even willing to give up marriage and childbirth for this reason.
Servants who grow up in this environment cherish their work, are loyal to their family, and have little contact with the outside world, and are less likely to be biased by bad thoughts from the outside world. The safety factor is naturally much higher.
The more Lin Wan'er saw it, the more she liked it. She, who was always calm, said to Sister Xian with a little joy: "I have some things that I need. I will make a list later, and you can help me buy them."
Sister Xian said respectfully: "Okay, Miss Lin, give me the form, and I'll do it right away!"
