Chapter 312: Chapter 312: For Whom Does She Dress Up (1)_1
Upon hearing this, Yan Family was convinced. No matter how rich Lin Family may be, it could never break free from its merchant label. In terms of status, she had definitely outstripped Lin Family.
If her son, Zhicai, becomes a scholar, every member of Lin Family would have to respectfully address her as Scholar’s Aunt.
"My dear son, you must strive hard, so that you can later make that disgraceful Lin Ziyin see." Mrs. Yan instructed her son.
"I know, Mother." Ma Zhicai impatiently replied. Many people in the village have a heated brick bed; he also had one in his room. But the fact that his younger brother, Youcai, came to take advantage of the bed from time to time, irritated him to death.
When Lin Ziyin got back home, she discovered that Chu Suifeng had brought back two beautiful girls, who were waiting for her in the study.
"We greet Miss Lin." After being disciplined by Chu Suifeng, both Hong Ying and Lun Luo were very respectful to Lin Ziyin.
"Who are you?" Lin Ziyin looked puzzled at the two pretty girls and asked.
"They are the personal maids I’m giving you." Chu Suifeng replied indifferently, "Jue Ming and others are men, it isn’t appropriate for them to take care of you sometimes."
Upon hearing this, Qiaoqiao was somewhat unconvinced. Even though Jue Ming and others were not appropriate, wasn’t she still there to look after her Lady?
As if knowing what she was thinking, Chu Suifeng gave Qiaoqiao a cold glance, "She’s not martially trained enough, some occasions will not suit her."
Qiaoqiao darkened at his words, recalling her tattooed forehead. The prince was right, in important gatherings, it would be embarrassing if she was accompanying the Lady. Upon this consideration, her hostility towards the two newcomers diminished.
Lin Ziyin did not rejoice at Chu Suifeng’s well-intended gift. She didn’t like others to install their people around her. Wouldn’t she be giving Chu Suifeng a clear picture of whatever she does in the future?
"These are their indentures." Chu Suifeng ordered Hong Ying and Lun Luo to hand over their indentures one by one, "Here, I gift the persons to you. If they make mistakes, you are free to castigate them as you please."
That was fair. Hearing Chu Suifeng’s final remark put Lin Ziyin at ease.
"Are you both truly willing to serve me?" She was skeptical, noting that both maids were very beautiful, far more so than herself. Lin Ziyin was still uncertain, "This is a small family here, it’s not at all comparable to serving in the Wang Residence."
"Your servant Hong Ying, asks the Lady to be at ease. Since the prince has entrusted your servant to accompany the Lady, henceforth, Hong Ying is loyal to you. Whatever orders the Lady commands, your servant shall execute." Hong Ying replied modestly and confidently.
Lun Luo also saluted and stated, "Your servant Lun Luo, will follow the Lady loyally in life or death unless the Lady herself discards her servant."
Lin Ziyin nodded, "It’s simple to work for me, as long as you are loyal to me and do not perform deeds harmful to me or my family. You’ve just arrived so you should listen to Qiaoqiao’s arrangements for now."
Upon hearing that new arrivals were to be ordered by her, Qiaoqiao immediately became delighted, her head lifting high.
Hong Ying and Lun Luo seemed to bear no resentment, they saluted Qiaoqiao, "Please provide us your guidance, Miss Qiaoqiao."
Observing their attitude, Lin Ziyin sighed inwardly. The people trained by this peculiar Chu Suifeng were truly good, they knew how to work with circumspection.
Chu Suifeng observed Lin Ziyin approving of Hong Ying and Lun Luo, his mouth corners slowly lifting.
Hong Ying and Lun Luo saw this, further solidifying their confidence and deepening their respect for Lin Ziyin.
The next morning on the Training Ground, the villagers were practicing martial arts while sneaking glances at the nearby courtyard.
Lin Ziyin had her far-sightedness or rather premeditation. She built a lot of houses and courtyards adjacent to the Training Ground. The villagers used to wonder, building such good green-brick courtyards would be a huge waste, and these workshops aren’t far from the courtyard too, using these residences for workers seemed too extravagant.
