991: Chapter 991: Stop Babbling (4) 991: Chapter 991: Stop Babbling (4) âYouâll have to get used to this,â Yang Ruxin stretched out her hand to embrace Erniâs shoulder, âWe have a lot to do and canât handle everything personally.
We need loyal aidesâŠ
Iâll be buying more servants, and youâll have to get used to people following you, and even more, learn how to manage themâŠâ
âI understand,â Sanni accepted quickly, taking a glance at Xiaodie, âWhat can you do?â
âThis servantâŠâ
âSister already said, as long as you know the etiquette when outsiders are present, thatâs enough,â Sanni quickly waved her hand, âWe donât have so many rules at home.â
Xiaodie glanced at Xiaoyun before swallowing and said, âTo answer the third young mistress, I can sew, I can cook, I can wash clothesâŠ
I can also farm and raise chickensâŠâ
âThen can you read?â
Xiaodie shook her head.
âWhat about martial arts?â
Xiaodie continued shaking her head.
Where would she have had the chance to learn any of that?
âFrom now on, every morning, you will practice martial arts and study with usâŠâ Sanni looked at Xiaodie seriously, âSister said that through learning one can understand reason.
In the future, our business will expand to the Prefectural City and Beijing.
Youâre going to be my personal maid, and I donât want a maid who doesnât understand reason.â
âYes,â Xiaodie felt extremely happy inside.
She hadnât expected that, upon joining the Yang Family, she would have the opportunity to study and learn martial arts.
It seemed their decision was right.
She couldnât help but look toward her big sister.
Xiaoyun also gave her a smile, a very comforting one.
âRest these few days; you can start work when youâre feeling better,â Erni nodded at Xiaoyun in agreement.
And so, Xiaoyun and Xiaodie, the sisters, settled down in the Yang Family household.
The next day was the time Yang Ruxin had arranged to meet with that fat Hao Jian, so, early in the morning, despite the light snow, she and Gu Qingheng set off.
Yang Ruxin didnât have anyone missing teeth, but Gu Qingheng said he did and would wait for them in the town.
The one missing a tooth was a short man, Shadow Seven, one of Gu Qinghengâs Thirteen Guards, and also the one with the best qinggong among them.
âShadow Seven lost his tooth in an accident,â Gu Qingheng explained, âand it has been missing ever since.â
Yang Ruxin nodded.
She had also noticed that Shadow Seven hardly ever smiled and spoke little.
Even greeting others meant a slight nod with his head bowed, his face devoid of expression, obviously due to the missing front tooth.
Regardless, it was fine as long as there was a patient.
Outside the gates of the county town, Hao Jian really had come early to wait.
Unbothered by the cold, he looked around eagerly, ignoring the servantsâ suggestions to warm up inside the carriage.
âRuxin sisterâŠâ Suddenly, a flower seemed to bloom on Hao Jianâs fat face as he hopped up and waved his hand, âOver hereâŠâ
âFat Hao, youâre quite early,â Yang Ruxin poked her head out of the carriage, âWith all that fat on you, you must not feel the coldâŠâ
âWho says Iâm not cold?â Hao Jian rubbed his hands together, âI just didnât want to keep you waiting, sister Ruxin.â
âAlright, letâs move on,â Yang Ruxin gestured with her hand.
âRuxin sister, yourâŠâ Hao Jian glanced around, âWhereâs the Eagle King?â
âStill not giving up?â Yang Ruxin frowned.
âHeihei, sister Ruxin, could you help me out?â Hao Jian pleaded with a bow, a face full of flattery, âReally, just a few daysâŠ
the Eagle King will certainly come out on top, and thenâŠâ
âLetâs get going, stop dawdling,â Yang Ruxin withdrew back into the carriage.
Hao Jian could only sigh, daring not to dawdle any longer and quickly boarded the carriage to lead the way.
