Sir Song, do you want to pledge yourself to me?
Chapter 190: Used to Making Friends Through Martial Arts
Xiaoyao Jian's eyes flashed with excitement, and he clapped his hands and shouted, "Well said! Do you want me to help you kill them back?"
"Thanks! But why would you need the unstoppable Xiaoyao Sword?" Ji Nuan winked at her. "Aren't you still going to ask them for compensation? You can't kill them just yet. Hehe, you like bullying people, don't you? I'll make Xiao Shuyue too embarrassed to go out and see people!"
"What do you want to do to her?" Xiaoyao Jian was curious. "Looking at your treacherous face, you're sure to make them suffer."
Ji Nuan's lips curled up into a sly smile, and she said, "It's impolite not to reciprocate! Compared to their viciousness, how can I be considered treacherous? At most, I just add some fun to their boring lives." After saying that, she straightened her hair and stood up. "Come on, I'll take you to meet my family. You'll live in my house from now on."
After seeing off Wu Mama and Song Jinbai, the master and servant, Ji's mother was about to order the servants to call Ji Nuan to arrange the four new maids when she saw Ji Nuan walking into the hall with a heroic woman in green.
Before Ji Nuan could open her mouth to introduce herself, the woman in green strode over, cupped her fists towards Ji's mother who was seated at the top, and said in a clear voice, "Xiaoyao Jian greets Madam Ji."
When Ji's mother heard her introduce herself, her heart trembled violently.
Recalling the thrilling scene in heaven and on earth last night, although it was dark and she could not see the face of the man in black clearly, when Master Zhong shouted the three words "Xiaoyao Sword", she clearly heard the man frankly admit his identity.
At this moment, she was full of doubts and didn't understand why her daughter would bring someone home who wanted to take her life.
She looked at Xiaoyao Jian in astonishment and asked with a trembling voice, "You...you are Xiaoyao Jian?"
Seeing this, Ji Nuan immediately understood her mother's concerns. She quickly smoothed things over, smiling and introducing Xiaoyao Jian, "Mom, don't get me wrong. Hehe, Xiaoyao Jian is my friend. She comes from the Jianghu martial arts world and is used to making friends through martial arts. When she meets a like-minded friend, she always exchanges a few moves as a gesture of friendship. Hehe, it's the same reason why Dad likes to have a few drinks with old friends."
Seeing how she explained, Ji's mother knew that things were not as simple as she said, but the fact that her daughter could say this meant that this person was not a threat to their family.
So, she said with a smile, "I see. Then please invite the guests to take a seat." Then, she instructed Aunt Fang beside her, "Aunt Fang, please make some more good tea."
She then said to Ji Nuan, "Mrs. Song has specially prepared four maids for you, and Madam Wu has just brought them along. Xi Que has already taken them to put away the luggage, and they will be here soon. You can meet them now."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xi Que walked into the front hall with four maids who were about fifteen or sixteen years old.
The four girls were pretty and followed Xi Que, bowing respectfully to Ji Mu and Ji Nuan.
Mother Ji smiled and said to them, "You've come just in time. Let Miss get to know you."
The next second, there were several thuds, and the four of them knelt in front of Ji Nuan.
"Please give me a name, my lady."
Ji Nuan quickly extended her hand to signal them to stand up, and said gently: "Get up first. In my house, there is no need to kneel like this, and there is no need to call yourself a slave."
The four of them looked at each other, and finally one girl stood up first, followed by the other three.
Ji Nuan didn't act like a boss at all. She smiled and asked, "What were your original names?"
The first girl to stand up bowed slightly and replied softly, "My original name was Xueqing. Now that I am following you, young lady, I will be yours. Please give me a new name."
The other three girls also gave their names one by one.
"Slave Xuexiang."
"My servant Xuemei."
“My servant is Sprite.
Ji Nuan coughed and almost choked on her saliva.
She wondered which great man, well-versed in history and the present, who knew the future, had come up with this name. She really wanted to see it for herself.
However, she still kept a smile on her face and said, "The names are all nice, so just use your original names. Oh, and by the way, you don't have to call yourself a slave at home."
The four Snowflake sisters said in unison: "Thank you, Miss."
Ji Nuan looked at the four Xuehua sisters in front of her and said, "I'm used to being free, and I don't need so many people around me all the time. But since you're here, I can't leave you idle. Do you have anything you're good at? I can arrange for you to be assigned more suitable positions."
"Miss……"
The four Xuehua sisters looked nervous and aggrieved, afraid that the young lady would drive them away.
Ji Nuan smiled slightly, "I don't mean to abandon you. Even if I arrange for you to stay somewhere else, you are still helping me. You are still my people. Don't think too much."
Xue Qing immediately realized that she had misunderstood the young lady's meaning and asked her to explain to them. She knelt down and apologized: "We are ignorant and misunderstood the young lady's meaning. Please punish us."
Seeing this, the other three sisters also hurriedly knelt down and apologized.
Ji Nuan didn't stop them, but waited quietly for them to finish their apology. She didn't have a strong sense of hierarchy, but since these people were sent to her, she had to arrange them according to her wishes. She didn't like being led around by the nose.
After the four of them apologized, Ji Nuan gestured for them to stand up. "Stand up, and follow me and obey me from now on. Now, let's talk about what each of you is good at."
Xue Qing still bowed to Ji Nuanfu first, which was very polite.
"Miss, Xueqing has learned a little bit of everything, but she is best at taking care of the master's food and clothing and handling interpersonal relationships."
Ji Nuan nodded in satisfaction: "Then Xueqing will stay by my side and help me with the daily chores."
Xue Qing showed a look of joy and bowed again to express her gratitude.
Then, Xuemei stepped forward and said, "Miss, Xuemei has been studying medicine since she was a child and knows some medical etiquette."
Ji Nuan looked at her with a smile: "Xuemei, go to the pharmacy more often in the next two days. Once you are familiar with the pharmaceutical production process, I will give you some prescriptions and you can guide them in making new medicines."
Seeing that the first two sisters had successfully received the task, Xuebi couldn't wait to put on her round smiling face and said, "Miss, I am Xuebi. I eat a lot and have great strength. I have been practicing martial arts with my master since I was a child, and my skills are quite good. Anyone who dares to touch the young lady must first ask if my fists will allow it!"
When the little girl spoke, the bun on her head swayed back and forth, which made Ji's mother and Xiaoyao Jian think that this little girl was funny.
Ji Nuan was also amused by her. She picked up a piece of cake from the tea table and handed it to her. "Okay, you will follow me from now on. Remember to protect me well. In return, I will give you a lot of delicious food."
When Sprite saw the food, her eyes lit up and she laughed, "Thank you, Miss!"
Finally, Xuexiang stepped forward and bluntly explained her expertise to Ji Nuan: "Miss, Xuexiang is proficient in accounting and using the abacus, and she also has experience in managing a shop. As long as I review the accounts, I guarantee that not a single penny will be wrong."
Ji Nuan looked at Xuexiang's confident look and was very satisfied: "Okay, then you can be the chief accountant by my side."
