Chapter 764 Taking in a Subordinate
The butler also sensed that something was wrong inside. He hesitated at the door for a long time, but the two of them didn't speak. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and come in to ask.
The two men came to their senses, and Lord Wen nodded gently, "Let them both come in."
"Yes."
The butler withdrew, and soon three men and one woman entered.
Lord Wen said to the group, "From now on, she will be your new master. Do as she says."
Without hesitation, the men immediately dismounted, saying, "Yes, greetings, Master."
Du Mingxian hesitated at this moment. Did the Wen family really have a grudge against her maternal grandparents' family? Should she keep the person or not?
After Lord Wen left, she didn't rush to speak, still struggling with whether or not to.
Her mother probably only has her to rely on in this world. What if it's a deep-seated blood feud? She has no right to forgive the suffering that others have endured.
While I was lost in thought, Lord Wen, who had left, returned and sat in the main seat, handing me several sheets of paper.
"These are their indentures. You're entitled to the people; take the things."
Du Mingxian hesitated and did not answer.
Lord Wen naturally saw through it. "You guys go outside and wait."
"Yes."
The room returned to silence.
Lord Wen placed the things he was holding on the table.
"Hesitated?"
"Yes."
"Afraid of a blood feud?"
"Yes."
Du Mingxian answered earnestly and frankly.
Lord Wen sat in silence for a while before saying, "Even if there is a deep-seated hatred, it is a matter for our elders. We have been in contact for a long time. You can also look at the problem from a different perspective. Maybe it was fate that brought you to the Wen family. This is your bond with the Wen family."
After hesitating for a moment, Du Mingxian said, "Father, I can't make decisions for others. The matter hasn't been investigated yet, and I don't want to waste my time. But when I know the truth, I... I will respect my mother's choice."
"Alright," Lord Wen agreed, saying they would discuss it further once the matter was investigated.
Du Mingxian smiled and took the indentures from the men. "Thank you, Father. You're giving away such talented people so readily."
"Take it."
Perhaps it's a kind of indebtedness and a way to make amends.
Originally, Du Mingxian wanted Chunfeng to arrange these things, but the Wen family acted quickly and had already met with her, so she took people to make the arrangements herself and personally gave instructions.
When Du Mingxian returned home from the estate, Ling Silang had already started chopping the vegetables.
"I got back just in time. I had already chopped the vegetables and was about to cook them."
"Let me do it."
"Okay." Ling Silang didn't rush to do the work. He was good at cooking, but he was far from being able to cook something delicious.
During the meal, Du Mingxian recounted what had happened that day, and Ling Silang knew that she was feeling bad.
"The matter hasn't been investigated yet, so there's no need to rush. We can make a decision when it comes to that. Lord Wen truly treats you like his own daughter."
"Perhaps it was Old Madam Wen who did it. If Old Madam Wen can make such a foolish decision even towards her own son, it's not surprising that she has done some unscrupulous things in the past."
"Yes."
Du Mingxian wasn't feeling so bad anymore. "I'll go to bed early tonight. I have to go to the workshop tomorrow."
"it is good."
Ling Silang didn't bother her that night, and the two went to bed early.
Du Mingxian went with Liu Ya in the morning.
When they arrived at the workshop entrance, the person who opened the door saw that Liu Ya looked very happy, but Du Mingxian's face was very sour. "You haven't come over for the past few days. What brings you here today?"
“I’ve been busy these days and haven’t been feeling well, so I haven’t been able to come.”
“Yes, I can testify. We live in the same courtyard, and she has indeed been feeling unwell recently,” Liu Ya hurriedly interjected.
Seeing Liu Ya hurriedly explaining, the gatekeeper's sour face softened a bit. "Alright, since Madam Liu has said so, I'll let you in today. If you don't come again, you can either send someone to tell me, or come and tell me yourself."
"If you don't come next time without a reason, we'll consider it as you not wanting to work here anymore."
Du Mingxian nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay."
"Then let's go in first, Brother Wang," Liu Ya said with a smile, pulling Du Mingxian along.
Wang Cai, the gatekeeper, didn't make things difficult for the two anymore. "Alright, go in."
The two went inside, into the same room as before. There was already someone there when they entered. Du Mingxian took a closer look; the face was unfamiliar, so the person must be new. There were also many patches on the clothes.
Liu Ya and Du Mingxian came in without saying a word. Liu Ya had half of her work left unfinished, so she picked it up and started working on it immediately, while Du Mingxian went to get the materials first.
After receiving the materials, Du Mingxian sat down with Liu Ya. Her goal this time was to enter the inner courtyard, so she worked diligently.
All morning, he didn't drink a drop of water or go to the toilet; he just kept working with his head down.
It was almost noon when Liu Ya finished the remaining half from yesterday. After collecting her wages, she went home to cook lunch. Du Mingxian hurriedly followed Liu Ya and went back to the courtyard together.
On the way back, Du Mingxian asked, "Why didn't you go to the inner courtyard? The money in the inner courtyard is much more than that in the outer courtyard."
“I can’t go. Brother Jiang doesn’t know anything. If I go, there will be no one to take care of him. Like I said, I came to Beijing to take care of Brother Jiang. That’s the main reason. Making money… I want to too, but I can’t hold him back.”
Du Mingxian felt that although Liu Ya came from the village, she was far from short-sighted, could distinguish between primary and secondary matters, and was a capable person.
"you're right."
Looking at the innocent smile on her face, Liu Ya felt a little sorry for her and said, "When you go home, you should also talk to your husband. He came to the capital to prepare for the exam, so he should stay in his room and study."
"You can't keep running out, it will take away from your study time. You can't afford to neglect your studies, what if you don't do well on the exam?"
Du Mingxian was embarrassed. She couldn't tell Liu Ya that Ling Silang had a photographic memory and that after several years, his learning ability was almost demonic.
Otherwise, one wouldn't have been able to learn medical skills in such a short time.
But the other party was doing it for their own good.
"Thank you, Sister Liu. I understand. I'll tell my husband when I get back. But while reading is important, you also need to rest properly, otherwise your body won't be able to handle it."
"Okay, let's go home and cook."
Liu Ya didn't take her words to heart, and Du Mingxian didn't remind her again; everyone had their own path to walk.
Liu Ya usually goes grocery shopping in the afternoon, firstly because the vegetables are cheaper, and secondly because she has more free time, so she goes straight home at noon.
Du Mingxian didn't have much food at home; she had plenty in her storage space and didn't want to buy any outside. So she made an excuse to separate from Liu Ya, took a stroll around, and then carried the groceries home.
Ling Silang didn't go out today; he was writing and drawing at his desk.
When Du Mingxian came home and saw him, she was quite curious. "Why didn't you go out?"
"Organize some things."
