Chapter 55: Ch. 27 Part 1

The servants were lined up in front of Yanzhi and Xiao Ling waiting for instructions. "I hope you’ll forgive us, we’ll have to wrong you for sometime. You see we live in a small house now so you’ll have to stay on the mountain where the new house is being built with the foremen and workers. Don’t worry that won’t be long, after the house is built you’ll have roofs over your heads" Xiao Lin took over talking and explained feeling bad for them, Yanzhi who wasn’t sociable just listened and gave Xiao Ling advice one or two times. "You don’t need to worry about food and clothes because you’ll be provided with them. My husband Jun YanZhi and I Xiao Ling would never treat you bad if you work diligently and do as you’re told. What we hate most are betrayals, and if you dare betray us, we’ll make you wish for death" they all gulped down petrified from his ruthless threat and cold air around him.

"Nothing of that sort will happen to you all if you don’t do anything against us or betray us. My husband is the head of our family and also the master of the house, everything he says is what I say." Yanzhi was stunned by his words, did Xiao Ling have that much blind trust in him, he wondered. But all the same he felt warmth thinking he wouldn’t do anyway to make Xiao Ling regret putting all his trust in him. "And whatever my wife says is what I say" he also added to Xiao Ling’s words. Xiao Ling turned to him with a bright smile as he also gave Xiao Ling a tender and warm look, "en" Xiao Ling answered in his nasal. The servants were shocked to see how close and intimate their new masters were, a ger’s identify was much lower than a woman’s, married gers were not very respected by their husbands let a lone given the rights to make decisions in the household. But since they got to the house of their new masters it was the ger wife who was talking whilst the master of the house sat listening, they gave gave Xiao Lin looks of admirations to be able to receive such treatment from Yanzhi, it was very envious.

"Master and mistress, we’re greateful to you for buying us and giving us a place to live. We will abide by all the rules of the household" Uncle Feng the eldest amongst the servants said and they all kowtowed. "Get up! get up!" Xiao Ling was flustered, the servants did us instructed with confused looks and doubts. They couldn’t understand why Xiao Ling was flustered about them kowtowing, servants were to kowtow to their masters all the time. "We don’t have any rules in our house, just don’t betray us and don’t do anything that would bring us harm, watch your words and what you say outside the house, whatever happens in the house stays in the house. Well that is literally all... right Xiong gong?" Xiao Ling stated and asked Yanzhi, "Just as my wife says" Yanzhi approves of his words. "Oh and also no need to kowtow at every turn....it’s uncomfortable" Xiao Ling added again.

The servants were dumbstruck and turned to YanZhi, Yanzhi nodded, "thank you master and mistress, servants would abide by your words" they bowed respectfully feeling that they were in luck to come across such good masters. Xiao Ling felt very uncomfortable being addressed as mistress but he decided to ignore it since Yue and her brothers addressed him that way too, he was a man what was it the mistress address, he felt very wronged and pursed his lips. Yanzhi chuckled knowing what he was thinking, he didn’t have to read or prob into his soul to know, Xiao Ling acted too obvious and being with Xiao Ling it was like the both of them had tactical understandings. "Well then Uncle Feng and Aunt Feng and Xile would be helping me with the works at home.....and the rest of you, Xiong gong would handle you" the three servants mentioned bowed their heads after Xiao Ling finished talking. "Feng you’re in charge of training the boys" Yanzhi emphasized. "Your disciple understand" Feng saluted,

"Let’s go" Feng instructed. The 9 servants bowed to YanZhi and Xiao Ling before turning around to follow behind Feng. "I said the boys, so why are the two of you following too?" Yanzhi’s words brought the 9 servants to a stop, their back stiffened. They turned around to take defensive stance shielding two colleagues of them in the center, their bloodlust could be felt as they looked like they were ready to fight. The other three servants gasp seeing the 9 of them with the intentions of attacking their master, their legs gave out feeling the bloodlust in the atmosphere, Xiao Ling yawn looking bored as Yanzhi just glanced at them lightly and turned his attention from them. "Are you tired?" he asked Xiao Ling, Xiao Ling shook his head. The 9 servants were dumbfounded to see them both talking leisurely with no interest of them, "with this little qi manifestation you dare to act rude in front of master and mistress?" Liu chuckled lightly as she asked with her sleeves covering half of her face.

The 9 servants felt that something was very wrong with these people, they looked carefree as if the 9 of them weren’t there in the first place. The 9 servants were irritated being taken lightly, but their instincts told them not to act irrational, they felt that the situation now would be dangerous if they act irrationally. They stood still with their stance troubled, none of them dared to take action, Yue and her brothers stood still not attempting to do anything because Yanzhi and Xiao Ling hadn’t given any oder. One of the servants shielded in the center pushed the rest away making an opening, the servant walked out from the rest and kowtowed to YanZhi and Xiao Ling. The rest of the servants followed in suit and kowtowed, in this predicament situation they decided to capitulate rather than fight a battle which they were bound to loose.

They already felt it when they released their bloodlust, that the master and mistress and their servants weren’t normal people. Yanzhi and Xiao Ling turned to their kowtowing figures, Xiao Ling’s whole demeanor turned cold making all servants brought in shivered in fright, Yanzhi still had his carefree look as if everything happening he wasn’t involved. "I didn’t mentioned this earlier..... we do not care about where you were brought from or what you did there, as far as I’m concerned you were bought by us now and you belong to us. Your life and death is for us to decide. You all should forget about the life you lived before and think about what life to live here with us, either be it a girl or boy we decide your posts, you may have lived like boys with your previous master but that doesn’t apply here."

The servants shivered more thinking that Xiao Ling who looked docile was scarier than their old masters. "Servants understand, Mistress. Servants will listen to mistress instructions." Xiao Ling took back his cold aura looking satisfied. "You all get up now" he ordered and they complied. "What are your names" he asked. Earlier they didn’t ask because those 9 servants were hiding the two 2 girls who were dressed and pretending to be boys amongst them. They’ve already saw through the disguises of those girls but they were waiting for the girls to come out themselves, yet still those two girls never planned on coming out and the 7 boys shielded them thinking Yanzhi and Xiao Ling wouldn’t notice. It was their naive thoughts since they didn’t know and couldn’t tell who Yanzhi and Xiao Ling were. But it was different for Yanzhi and Xiao Ling since they could also guess and tell what kind of works those 9 servants did before, the 9 of them had temperaments of spies and undercover trained soldiers.

"Mistress our previous master didn’t gave us names, we were just numbered from 1 to 9" one of them bowed and answered politely, Xiao Ling nodded. "Then Xiong gong should we name them?" Xiao Ling asked Yanzhi who’s attention wasn’t on them the whole time. Yanzhi glanced upwards and swept through them boredly ".....let it be for now, they’ll keep their numbering for now. I still haven’t decided whether they’ll be kept or not, that depends on their behavior." The 9 servants became anxious from Yanzhi’s words, they couldn’t afford to be taken back to the dental, they could tell that Yanzhi and Xiao Ling were good masters, they couldn’t tell if they’ll come across such good masters again if they were taken back. Even though they had hidden the fact that there were 2 girls amongst them, both masters seemed not to be bothered by it, would it be the same if it was to be another masters? They didn’t know, what they did know was that it would be a loss to loose such good masters.

"Master! Mistress! We beg you don’t take us back, us brothers and sisters will work hard and do anything master oders" they kowtowed once more and pleaded. Yue sneered angrily, ever since the 9 servants made a rude attempt to attack her master she had no liking of them.

She can stand anything but she could never stand whoever was rude to her master, it was the same thing with the others, the air around them turned cold and no expressions on their faces after the foolish attempt of those 9 servants. "Master, Mistress. Disciple thinks it would be better to find other people to train, these people were rude earlier" Chang voiced out his thoughts looking unhappy with the servants. "Chang must been annoyed by them" Xiao Ling said dotingly, he saw Yabzhi’s disciples as younger siblings and children since finding out their age. Like YanZhi, he trusted them too. Chang pouted with his cheeks puffed up, Yanzhi chuckled lightly while Xiao Ling laughed. "Don’t worry, let’s keep them for some few days first to see. We’ll take them back if they’re no good" Xiao Ling said as if coaxing a child, Chang nodded in understanding even though he still looked unhappy, whatever their master and mistress says is what they will do.
