Ren's family started by renting coal mines and operating coal mines, and settled in Youzhou, Yanbei for generations.

During the decades when Youyan sixteen prefectures were trampled by the Liao people's iron cavalry, although the family property was scattered and the clansmen were withered, Ren's family did not leave the land and moved southward with the imperial court.

After that, xiaoqishan, the fourth king of Yanbei, did not lose the prestige of his ancestors. He led a group of cadres to recover the sixteen prefectures of Youyan, intercepted the Liao people outside the Jiajing pass, and returned the Yanbei area to the rule of Dazhou.

At this time, Baoming, the family director at that time, took out three gold bars hidden by his wife under the toilet compartment. Regardless of his family's small opposition, he put all his eggs in one basket and bought several barren hills on the west mountain outside Yunyang city in Youzhou.

It may be that Renjia's time has come. The Xishan Mountain is a coal mine. The coal excavated from the four or five hills purchased by Ren's family is of high quality. The annual output can not only supply the whole Youzhou area, but also be transported to the surrounding cities.

The former owner was good at drilling camp, but in a few years, Ren's coal stack opened all over Yanbei.

Since then, Ren's family has called himself Yanbei Hao.

After the early establishment of Yanbei, there were so many rich people springing up in Yanbei area overnight.

In addition to guarding Yanbei's mansion, which is actually the king of Yanbei for generations, some old northern aristocratic families, such as the cloud family, who moved northward after the war, the Su family who became famous after the northern expedition, and Ren family who made a fortune by various means of luck.

The old and new aristocrats are not convinced with each other. The new aristocrats can't bear to see the old aristocratic families who are obviously poor, but their eyes are higher than the top. The old aristocrats despise the new nobles whose foundation is still shallow and lack of aristocratic bearing. The two sides fight openly and secretly and play tricks on each other to make obstacles.

until the king of Yanbei reconciled, and the first group of clouds and the Soviet Union took the lead, and the situation in Yanbei was really stabilized.

Over the past few decades, although there were occasional disputes between the new faction and the old faction, most of them had been able to live together peacefully under the strong pressure of Yanbei palace, and many of them were married to children and daughters.

The wife of Yonghe, the current head of Ren's family, was born in the Qiu family of Jizhou. Although Qiu's father was not the direct branch of Qiu's family, Qiu's elder brother was adopted by Qiu's elder brother because of the lack of children. Therefore, the current Qiu clan's elder brother is actually Ren's wife, and Qiu's family has become more and more upright in Ren's family. After all, although Ren's family was forced to become a powerful family in Yanbei, it was still a little weak compared with the old family of Yun family and Qiu family.

Ren's residence is located in Baihe Town, the southern foot of Xishan Mountain, more than 90 miles outside Yunyang city. Although Baihe Town is not as prosperous as Yunyang City, the first city in Yanbei, it is prosperous because it is located on the north-south traffic fortress, and it has been a place for military strategists to fight for.

Ren's house covers an extremely wide area, with carved beams and painted buildings. The beauty of pavilions is no less than that of Nandu garden.

It is said that it was once the ancestral home of a famous family. The house was sold for a low price because of the southern migration of the Ju family. Later, it was bought by the owner of the family and moved in after renovation.

Ren Yaoqi has lived here since she was born. Before she left Ren's house at the age of 16, she rarely walked out of this magnificent place where old and decaying moth ants breed, but is decorated with painted walls.

After his illness, Ren Yaoqi walked out of the crape myrtle courtyard for the first time. When he looked at the mansion again, he was in a different mood.

To be fair to all, her great grandfather, who was the last owner of the house, had some foresight when he bought the house. Leaving aside the delicate and exquisite houses, the whole house has excellent geomancy.

It is high in the southeast and northwest, with the west mountain on its back and a small white river in front of it. This is the "trend of heaven and earth" pursued by Fengshui. Because of the long history and winding of the west mountain, it became the source of "vitality" of the residence, making the whole house a place of Tibetan wind and gathering gas.

The pavilions are like clouds, the houses are high and low, and the roads and paths echo in all directions. The ronghua garden, where the owner lives, is located in the center. The layout is like the Taiji Yin and yang fish diagram. There are eight courtyards in the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard, forming the eight trigrams.

A good land is a prosperous Miao; a good house is a glorious one.

The man who built this mansion must be a master of geomancy.

It's just that even if you live in a mansion like this, you can live in it. Although Ren's family can borrow its fortune temporarily, it can't suppress its noble spirit after a long time, for fear that it will be eaten back by its fortune.

It is no wonder that she had heard about the decline of Ren's family several years after she left Ren's family, and the house changed its owner again.

As to where the rest of the house had gone, she was no longer interested in inquiring.

Passing through the tall wall gate decorated with glazed tiles and piers, the first thing you can see is the huge Lingbi stone in the middle of the courtyard, which is located in the shallow water pool. It is named Cangshan majestic because of its shape like mountains.

It is said that the stone was transported from Anhui Province by Baoming, the former family director, at a huge expense. It is also a wonder of Ren's house.

Around Lingbi stone is the three broad flower halls of ronghua courtyard, which are closed on weekdays. They are all opened only on festivals and banquets. When there are many guests, there are two things on both sides that can be used across the courtyard.

Passing through the hall is the vestibule of the main room of ronghua garden.Mrs. Ren has a quirk. She doesn't like flowers and trees. She dislikes those colorful things that attract insects and ants. Therefore, the whole courtyard only has a clear blue stone floor with neat joints, and only one or two small grasses pop up at the root of the wall in spring and summer. Only then can you see a little green. Unfortunately, when you look up, you will be uprooted by the old lady sweeping the yard.

After two days of heavy snow, it cleared up. Before the snow bloomed, it was blown into hard ice by the north wind. During the reign of Ren Yao, all the way was to pick up the corridor or walk on the ground covered with cotton lichen.

The courtyard of ronghua garden is clean, without any trace of ice and snow. It has been cleaned to see only the unchanging bluestone ground.

At this time, two 12-3-year-old girls were kneeling on the bluestone ground in the vestibule of the main room.

They were dressed in indigo blue winter clothes, the second-class maids of Renfu. They knelt upright and devout with their foreheads, but they fought like the withered leaves hanging on the branches. They did not know whether they were frozen or frightened.

Ren Yaoqi walked past them and could hear their sniveling when they stepped on the steps that connected to the base of the main room.

"It's fang'er and hui'er, who are served by Miss eight." Qingmei, who was one step behind, looked at the two men and rushed to the first two steps. She pretended to be mysterious and half covered and reported to Ren Yaoqi. It was not hard to tell that there was a good play to watch.

Ren Yaoqi turned a deaf ear and stood outside the curtain waiting for the wives to report to the inside.

The rules of Ren's family are very big, especially in the ronghua courtyard of Ren Laoye and Ren Laofu. If there is no answer in the main room, you can't go in. On the day of Li's return, it was because Mrs. Ren didn't give her an order to let her into the room and knelt for more than an hour.

Fortunately, today, the old lady didn't want to make trouble with Ren Yao's period. The woman at the door quickly put up a curtain for Ren Yaoqi: "Miss Wu, please."

The warm air in the room comes to you, and Ren Yaoqi walks in.

The main room of ronghua courtyard is located in five rooms facing south. The middle one is the Ming hall. At this time, it is empty. Only two servant girls stand in front of the carved moon cave in the second room on the right.

Seeing Ren Yaoqi come in, the two maids bend their knees and lift up the brocade curtain with the character of blessing. A slight sound is heard from the right side of the room, which is also mixed with a smell of burning boxes.

It's almost time for the old man and the old lady to have breakfast.

Ren's younger generation to invite an Du must be on an empty stomach. After serving the elders, they can go back to the courtyard to eat after they have finished their dinner.

When Ren Yaoqi went in, he saw his eldest wife, Wang Shi, leading her eldest daughter-in-law, Zhao, arranging the Kang Table.

On a large Kang against the north wall, more than a dozen kinds of early food, large and small, have been placed on a large Kang, and a few servant girls are standing on the side with a few unopened food boxes.

The eldest master took his son and nephews to sit on nanmu chairs on both sides of the East and West. The third miss was Yaohua, the fourth was Yaoyin, and the ninth was Ren Yaoying.

Ren Yaohua and Ren Yaoqi were in the same yard, but they never went in and out of ronghua courtyard. Before, Ren Yaohua lived in the warm Pavilion in the east of ronghua courtyard half of the time when she was at her home. When she lived in crape myrtle courtyard, she came earlier than her every day.

Ren Yaoqi swept around the room and bowed his head to meet his elders.

The eldest lady turned to look at her and said with a smile, "five wench's body is all right? The old lady said yesterday that she would like you to rest for a few more days, so that you don't have to rush to come here

Ren Yao period bowed his head and said, "it's all right. If you don't come, you can't say it."

The eldest lady nodded with a smile: "good boy. You can recover so quickly, don't forget that your aunt's credit is. Although your aunt is in charge of the family, you can ask for the doctor and ask for the medicine all depend on your aunt

Ren Yaoqi took a look at the eldest wife, laughed, and bowed his head and said yes.

Wang's wife in charge has a good reputation at home. She is fair in handling affairs and has clear rewards and punishments.

Those who should be, those who should not be, should be left with one eye open and one eye closed.

If she doesn't take the credit, she doesn't have to take the responsibility.

After chatting with his wife, Ren Yaoqi went to the south window and stood with Ren Yaohua. They bowed their knees and saluted Ren Yaohua and Ren Yaoyin, who were older than her.

Ren Yaohua, as always, turned a blind eye to her, but the fourth Miss Ren Yaoyin gave her a kind smile and a salute. Ren Yaoying, who is younger than her, curled her lips and curtly saluted her. Ren Yaoqi only nodded and stood beside Ren Yaoyin.
