Super rare beast girl, run away! The emperor's uncle is coming!

When Qu Jingyao arrived at the official yamen, the yamen worker just walked in with a group of new servants.

"Sister, what are they doing..." Xiaoyang looked at them curiously.

"Let's go and take a look." Qu Jingyao curled the corners of her lips towards Xiaoyang, and the few of them walked straight into the gate of Guanya.

Seeing the people coming in from afar, the servant immediately stepped forward and said:

"I wonder if the girl is..."

Qu Jingyao looked around and saw that the group of people who had just come in were standing in the yard, being picked and chosen by several managers of the pawnshop. No one knew what they were talking about.

"I want to buy a small house. By the way, who are these people?"

"Oh, these are the new servants who have just been assigned. They all worked in wealthy families or as housekeepers before. What do you think, young lady? This hasn't been announced to the public yet, otherwise they would be very popular."

The servant's words made Qu Jingyao take it seriously.

These are all well-trained, and there are many talented people among them. It is not a bad idea to choose them, as they will need people in the future whether for business or for family.

This also saves her a lot of trouble in finding a suitable candidate in the future.

"You can take a look."

The servant smiled and nodded, then leaned over and invited them to the hall to chat.

After Qu Jingyao and his two siblings sat down, the broker's hearty laughter came from outside. He was wearing a blue-gray robe, had dark skin, a strong build, a short beard on his chin, and his eyes were particularly bright.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting. Bring us some tea!"

The servant beside him introduced that the person in front of him was Wang Yaren. The maid bent down to serve tea to the few people and then left the flower hall.

"Wang Yaren, I want to see if there is a suitable courtyard. I want to find one closer to Qing Academy."

Wang Yaren waved his hand and asked the servant to fetch the booklet:

"There's a place I happen to have. A scholar used to live there, but now he's moved to the capital, so I'm selling it. The yard was renovated last year and it has two entrances."

Qu Jingyao listened to Wang Yaren introducing several houses one by one. After some discussion, the siblings decided to go and take a look at the scholar's yard.

"Okay, miss, wait for Wang to make the arrangements, and then I'll go with you to look at the house."

Wang Yaren, who was standing outside the flower hall, ordered the servants to sort out the newly delivered slaves. Among them, there were several accountants and housekeepers who were very popular.

When Qu Jingyao heard what Wang Yaren said, she quickly called out to him.

"Wangya, please wait. I wonder if I can take a look at those people."

"Miss, are you looking to buy someone? What kind of person do you need? A maid or..."

Qu Jingyao shook her head and said frankly that she wanted to meet the accountant and housekeeper that the agent had just mentioned, and if there was an embroiderer, she would also want one.

"Uh... okay, then wait a moment, girl." As they were speaking, Qu Jingyao and a few others had already walked out and stood in front of the door of the flower hall, looking at the men and women standing in rows below.

I saw Wang Ya people calling out two of the men, who looked to be middle-aged.

"The girl is these two."

Qu Jingyao whispered a few words in Baiguo's ear, and her eyes flashed slightly. She nodded and walked towards the two people.

The Wangya people were curious about what the girl was doing.

Bai Guo simply asked the two of them a few questions and then returned to his master's side and whispered something in Qu Jingyao's ear.

Qu Jingyao kept looking at the two of them while they were answering Bai Guo's questions.

"Sister, you can keep the housekeeper, but forget about the accountant."

Xiaoyang said in a dull voice.

The corners of her lips rose slightly, a gentle smile spread across her face, and she tilted her head to ask him why?

Xiao Yang whispered in her ear to explain that the man's eyes were obviously evasive, mixed with a hint of arrogance. Such a person...

"Xiaoyang is right. Sister really means this." She saw the disdain flashing in the man's eyes when Baiguo asked him.

"Wang Yaren, then leave the steward here."

The servant beside Wang Ya Ren spoke up at this time, reminding the Ya Ren that the housekeeper had a wife and son, and that the young man who was carried in earlier was his son, who was still running a high fever.

Combining what Baiguo had just asked, Qu Jingyao concluded that the housekeeper's family must have offended the old lady in the mansion. Her son was beaten and barely managed to escape death, but the housekeeper was so angry that he talked back a few words and was then sold out.

The housekeeper clenched his fists and looked at Qu Jingyao hesitantly, still with hope in his heart, hoping that the new master would be kind enough to buy their entire family out.

"What did your wife and son do in the mansion before?"

"Replying to the master, I am the manager of the embroidery workshop in the mansion, but she can also do the work in the kitchen. My son is with the young master."

He leaned over respectfully and spoke to Qu Jingyao. His humble attitude really satisfied his two younger brothers.

The two brothers carefully observed their sister's expression, trying to guess what she was planning.

"You're going to be separated from your family this time. Don't you have anything to say?"

Qu Jingyao asked him with a cold expression.

The man sighed, and finally replied respectfully:

"I am worried about my family, but since the master has made the decision, there is no reason for me to disobey."

Qu Jingyao chuckled and told Wang Yaren that his two family members bought it together.

"Hahaha... The girl's son was beaten by the master, can he ever be healed..."

Qu Jingyao nodded slightly, curled the corners of her lips and said firmly that no matter whether he could be cured or not, she wanted this person.

"Young lady, be kind and righteous. If that is the case, then I, Wang, will cut his injured son in half."

The housekeeper knelt down in front of Qu Jingyao with a "knock" sound and kowtowed heavily:

"Master, I have been so kind to you that I cannot possibly repay you. I will always be devoted to you and loyal to you. If I betray you, I will not live a peaceful life..."

Behind them, the housekeeper's wife, Mrs. Lin, came over, supporting her seriously injured son. Just as they were about to kneel down, they were stopped by Qu Jingyao.

Mrs. Lin was so grateful that she didn't know what to say. Her eyes were already red and swollen from crying.

Housekeeper Tian pulled his wife's sleeve, reminding her that the master still needed to buy some embroidery supplies and not to cry.

"My lady, are you looking for an embroiderer? I can help you choose a few good ones. They used to work with me."

Qu Jingyao stood there quietly, her eyebrows slightly raised: "Oh? Well, I'll leave this matter to you."

Mrs. Lin handed her son to her husband and walked quickly towards the team, selecting two girls around seventeen or eighteen years old and a woman.

The expressions in their eyes were quite clear, and they looked honest.

She asked Mrs. Lin why these people were sold out by their master.

"It was because the young master of the master's family was addicted to gambling and lost the embroidery shop that the lady had brought as a dowry. The lady then sold these people out."

Qu Jingyao nodded, which allowed her to catch up.

Wang Yaren also tried to smooth things over by explaining that embroiderers were generally scarce, and the good ones were held in the hands of wealthy families and would not be easily let out.
