Die'er blinked her innocent almond eyes and looked at Gu Jin with a smile. Gu Jin stared at her for a while and said, "Oh... I didn't remember."

Die'er: "..."

I didn't remember what was going on with your intonation!

"Madam, it was you who saved Die'er from the two bullies that day."

"It's you!" Gu Jin smiled and said enthusiastically, "I remember it now. Thanks to you, I made dozens of taels of silver in one go."

Although it was snatched from those two bullies.

Die'er choked.

She felt that she and Gu Jin were not compatible, and that talking to Gu Jin would definitely shorten her life.

Gu Jin lay on the chaise longue and looked at Die'er lazily, and asked with interest: "How did you get into the Anding Marquis's mansion?"

Die'er smiled and replied slowly, "It's just a coincidence. The old lady wanted to choose a few maids for my aunt and cousin, and she just happened to pick me.

The old lady thought that you, the young lady, only have one maidservant by your side and lack a capable person, so she sent this servant over."

Gu Jin curled the corners of his lips with a smile, "Do you think you are worthy of the word 'capable'?"

"As long as Madam is willing to give me a chance, I will never let you down."

"Then do you know why there is only one big maid left by my side?"

Die'er frowned. The old lady had never told her about this.

"The last maid was the one I brought from the Earl's Mansion. Unfortunately, she was beaten to death for betraying her master."

Gu Jin's voice was gentle, but Die'er felt as if a heavy rock had suddenly pressed down on her heart. Just as she was about to say something to show her loyalty, she suddenly heard footsteps coming from outside.

She glanced sideways quietly, and saw Xie Ran in court robes passing by her, with a stunning appearance like a banished immortal.

Xie Ran also saw Die'er, but he didn't pay any attention to her. He just said to Gu Jin in a gentle voice, "Now you only have Ruyi by your side, but she is young and may not be able to handle some things properly. I have picked someone for you. See if you like it."

As he was speaking, a young girl in green came forward. She had a slender figure and looked even taller than Gu Jin. Her features were as sharp as a knife, and her face was as cold and pure as frost and snow. She was an absolute beauty.

"I'm Wumu, your servant. Greetings to the Third Young Madam." Wumu's voice was also deep and cold, without the gentleness and flattery that a maid should have.

Moreover, as soon as Wu Mu came in, Gu Jin discovered that she was a martial artist, and she instantly understood Xie Ran's intentions.

I think it was because the last time he saw her being held hostage, he specially selected a maid who was good at martial arts for her.

Die'er frowned. She had just entered Jinxiu Courtyard and there was already a beautiful maid by Gu Jin's side. How could she have a chance to make a name for herself in the future?

What's more, Ebony has a hot body with curvy figure and she doesn't look like a fuel-efficient person.

"Then you stay in Jinxiu Courtyard. I'll let Ruyi take you to see the room later."

Wu Mu had no expression on his face. He just nodded and said calmly, "Yes."

"Madam, I'm here to serve you in the name of the old lady." Die'er didn't believe that Gu Jin would not even give face to Liu.

Gu Jin spread his hands, "But you can see that I have enough manpower here, so I don't need you anymore."

"Young Madam, it was clearly me who came here first..."

Gu Jin chuckled, "What you said is really interesting. Choosing a maid is not like choosing a man, and there is no first come first served.

Go back and tell my grandmother that I have enough staff here and I dare not overstep my authority. You should go back and serve her."

When Die'er heard this, she immediately knelt down, looked at Gu Jin pitifully and said, "Madam, please give me a chance to live. If I go back, the old lady will definitely not forgive me.

I don't want any wages, I just need two steamed buns to fill my stomach every day, please don't drive me away!"

Wu Mu looked at Die'er with a cold face. She didn't ask for monthly salary as a maid, which showed her ambition written all over her face. No one would be willing to keep her unless he was a fool.

"But I really don't lack manpower here..."

Just when Wu Mu was thinking that this was indeed the case, he heard Gu Jin say again: "Then you should go and serve the Third Young Master. He still needs someone who understands his feelings."

Ebony: "..." This person is not a fool, he is a madman!

Xie Ran looked at Gu Jin with a half-smile, and his tone sounded somewhat intriguing, "I gave Madam a maid, and Madam gave me one in return. Madam is really courteous and considerate."

Gu Jin felt a little guilty. After all, the "quality" of these two maids was not good at all. However, her intentions were good.

Xie Ran's health is getting better day by day. How could this young man full of vigor and vitality not have that kind of need? It seems that Die'er is someone who is willing to sacrifice herself voluntarily.

The two of them have a purely comrade-in-arms relationship, but they cannot always sleep in the same bed. It's time to find a place for Xie Ran to sleep.

Xie Ran stared at Gu Jin, smiled for a long while, and said meaningfully: "Thank you very much, Madam."

"I'm going to the study to take care of some government affairs first."

Seeing him accept Dier, Gu Jin hurriedly said, "Go ahead."

Die'er was overwhelmed by the sudden surprise. This... this was so smooth that she could hardly imagine it.

"Everyone has left, why don't you follow them?" Gu Jin saw Die'er still standing there stupidly and reminded her.

Upon hearing this, Die'er quickly got up and chased after him.

Ebony was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.

Ruyi looked at Gu Jin eagerly, with a hint of excitement in her eyes that was hard to conceal.

Is it time to change the name?

She thinks the name Zhaocai is a good one!

"Ruyi, take Wumu back to the room and see if there is anything missing."

"Ah?" Ruyi was stunned. "Madam, have you forgotten something?"

Gu Jin thought about it seriously, then suddenly said, "If you hadn't reminded me, I would have almost forgotten."

Ruyi showed a smug little expression.

Hehehe, I need to change my name!

"Take Ebony to the storehouse and pick out two pieces of cloth to make her two new clothes, and also pick out some silver jewelry for her."

Ruyi left the room with her head hung, as if she had encountered something heartbreaking.

Wu Mu's frown deepened, wondering if both the master and servant were okay!

On the other side, Die'er trotted after Xie Ran into the study.

Before she could speak, Xie Ran said, "Close the door."

Die'er was delighted. Could it be that the Third Young Master was planning to take her away?

Although the pace was faster than she expected, she was willing to do it in her heart.

"Yes."

Dier's voice was so gentle that it seemed as if water could drip out of it.

She closed the door, walked forward with a blush on her cheeks, and called out "Master" in a delicate voice.

Xie Ran raised his eyes, and his deep, dark pupils made people inexplicably frightened.

"You now have two paths to choose from."

Die'er didn't understand, so she asked cautiously, "I'm stupid, I don't know which two roads the young master is talking about."

"The road of life and the road of death."
