After being read, the abstinent prince bullies others with his wife every day

Never mind, she came here to buy a maid after all, and since she met him, it was her fate.

She raised her hand and took out twenty taels of silver from her purse: "Who said I can't pay? Twenty taels, is that enough?"

The man's fierce expression faded instantly, his face full of joy. He threw the knife to the ground, rubbed his hands and said flatteringly: "Enough, of course it's enough! Pay first, you can't run away from here!"

Lin Shuning took out twenty taels of silver from his purse and put it in the man's hand.

The man was so happy that his mouth stretched to his ears. He quickly returned the silver coins and glared at the girl, saying fiercely, "You little bitch, you are lucky to have met a noble man today. Why don't you get out of here quickly? Do you still want to stay with me?"

The girl was startled, and finally opened her mouth. She ran towards Lin Shuning as if escaping for her life and hid behind her.

Lin Shuning looked back at her. The girl was shaking continuously, obviously frightened. Lin Shuning looked at the unfriendly eyes around her, grabbed the girl's hand and walked out. She didn't breathe a sigh of relief until they were far away from this place of trouble.

Lin Shuning reached out and touched the girl's hair, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you, you just follow me from now on, what's your name?"

"I don't have a name, please give me one, Master."

The girl knelt down, raised her dusty face, and the tears from the corners of her eyes slid down her cheeks, leaving two particularly obvious tear marks.

Lin Shuning took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped away the dust and tears on her face, revealing a pretty face. She said calmly, "Don't worry. I just happen to need a personal maid to serve me. But I want you to be loyal to me in the future, obey me and never betray me. Can you do that? If not, you can leave now."

"I can do it!" The girl said firmly, "My life was given by my master. As long as my master tells me to do it, I will do it without hesitation!"

If she hadn't met this benefactor today, she would have died without a doubt.

They couldn't even leave with dignity, but died in humiliation, being made a laughing stock and the subject of gossip.

When Lin Shuning saw the determination in her eyes, he knew that she had found a treasure today.

If an ordinary woman encountered the situation just now, she would definitely blame herself and resign herself to her fate. However, this girl dared to resist. Although her resistance was weak, she was still courageous and resolute. She was attracted by the girl's unwillingness to admit defeat.

"I will call you Lian'er from now on." Lin Shuning said after thinking for a while.

Lotus, which grows out of the mud but remains unstained, is a good name.

"Lian'er thanks the master."

Lin Shuning nodded: "Don't call me Master from now on, just call me Miss. Calling me Master... I'm not used to it."

If someone heard it, they might think she had some special hobby.

The sun was at its hottest and it was already noon. Lin Shuning took Lian'er and walked quickly towards the mansion. Now that she had won Lin Cheng's favor and had moved to a separate courtyard, none of the maids and guards in the mansion dared to look down on her anymore, and the meals would definitely be much more sumptuous than before.

This is a free meal, it would be a waste if you don’t take it.

When Lian'er stepped into the gate of the Shangshu Mansion, she was obviously stunned for a moment, but soon followed, with thoughts churning in her mind.

She could never have imagined that the noble person who saved her would be the daughter of the Shangshu Mansion. Such a blessing was something that ordinary people could not even ask for.

She couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat, and sighed that God had been kind to her.

Lin Shuning didn't notice Lian'er's change at all, his mind was full of food, and he walked quickly towards the north wing. But when he reached the door, he paused, and his face darkened visibly.

There were people all over the yard, rummaging through boxes and cabinets looking for something. Even the walls had been dug with several holes. The villa, which was clean and tidy in the morning, had now become a mess. To exaggerate, it looked like it had been robbed by bandits.

The one standing in the middle of the yard with her hands on her hips giving orders was none other than Wang, who had suffered a setback yesterday.

The guards and maids who were searching at the door saw Lin Shuning coming back, and they were so scared that they dared not move. Wang thought they were being lazy, and immediately scolded them: "You useless things, you haven't found it after searching for so long, what are you doing? Now you dare to be lazy, don't you all want to live?!"

Lin Shuning felt even colder after hearing this. The original owner's mother had such a greedy heart!

She took a deep breath and shouted loudly: "Someone come! Someone come quickly! There's a thief in the mansion! The thief is after the thank-you gift from the Yun family!"

This shout was from the top of her voice, which scared Wang immediately.

She covered her chest and glared at Lin Shuning fiercely: "Why are you crazy? Are you trying to scare people to death?"

Lin Shuning walked in swaggeringly, kicked the vase to Wang's feet, and said in surprise: "It turned out to be you, mother. I thought some thief was so bold as to come to the mansion to steal things in broad daylight. Now it makes sense."

Wang was stunned, feeling that this was not right.

It took her a while to come to her senses. Lin Shuning was finding new ways to accuse her of being a thief!

She was so angry that her teeth itched, and she lied, "What nonsense are you talking about? I saw that you just moved here, so I sent someone to clean the yard for you so that you can live comfortably. You are such a ruthless person! You don't know how to be grateful at all!"

"clean?"

Lin Shuning smiled wryly: "So cleaning requires such a big effort. The wall has been riddled with holes. Even the monks sweeping the floor in Shaolin Temple would be ashamed of themselves. Now I have really learned something. Tomorrow I will go and clean my mother's villa. Now my mother won't say I am an ungrateful person, right?"

Wang was speechless after hearing these stinging words. Her face turned blue. She looked at Lian'er standing next to Lin Shuning and looked her up and down. She seemed to have found a reason to pick a fight with her. She covered her nose with a handkerchief and said contemptuously, "Who is this dirty person? Is the Shangshu Mansion a place where anyone can be allowed in?"

Lian'er's face turned pale. Coming from a place like the slave market where all kinds of people mixed together, she could naturally figure out the current situation at a glance.

Her master was not favored in the mansion, so she glanced at Lin Shuning.

Lin Shuning happened to look at Lian'er, and she shook her head gently to indicate that nothing was wrong.

"This is the maid I just bought from the slave market. She will serve me personally from now on. Mother, do you dislike her simple attire? Why don't you give her more silver so that we can buy expensive clothes for both master and servant." Lin Shuning retorted.

"Slave market? How could you, an unmarried woman, go to such a place?! If your father knew, he would definitely break both of your legs!" Wang raised her voice.

Lin Shuning raised his eyebrows: "It was my father who asked me to go. Why don't I go with you to ask my father? By the way, I also want to tell my father how much my mother cares for me. She even cleaned the house for me when I was out of the house. I don't know if the thank-you gift from the Yun family is still there..."

Lin Shuning walked into the house while talking, and Wang followed closely behind her, wanting to see where she had hidden the thank-you gift.

When he reached the bed, Lin Shuning bent down, pushed the bedding aside to reveal the bed board, and then moved the bed board away, revealing a large space.

She discovered this by accident last night when she was going to bed.

Wang gritted her teeth. No wonder she had sent people to search for so long but found nothing.

It turns out that little bitch Lin Shuning hid all the things here. She is really scheming and is not as innocent and lovable as her Rouer at all.

She poked her head out to see the treasure under the bed, but she heard Lin Shuning suddenly shout, "Why is it gone? How come all the thank-you gifts from the Yun family are gone! I clearly put them here, and they were still there this morning!"

Lin Shuning was panicked. She grabbed Wang's sleeve and begged, "Mother, did you send someone to take all the things away? Please return them to me. They were given to me by the Yun family and my father agreed to it. You can't do this!"

Wang's face changed. She pushed Lin Shuning away and took a few steps back. "What nonsense are you talking about? When did I take your things?"

She didn't even find the Yun family's thank-you gift, how could it be gone? !
