It was also at this moment that Lin Xiaoyue saw Zhao Shanshan’s face.
This girl had beautiful facial features.
“Miss, please forgive me, 1 should have stopped her.” Zhao Fu quickly bowed to Lin Xiaoyue.
Lin Xiaoyue waved her hand.
“Tell me, what exactly happened?” She looked at Zhao Fu.
“Although Zhou Shi has bought you, 1 don’t want to keep people with impure thoughts around me.”
Zhao Fu was startled.
He quickly cupped his hands at Lin Xiaoyue.
“We were originally servants of the Zheng family in Nan’an County. The master had taken a fancy to my daughter, but my daughter did not give in, causing him to resent her and madam to be suspicious. After that, the master went to the west and madam was in charge. She wanted to sell my daughter.”
Zhao Fu’s voice was tinged with sadness. “I pleaded for mercy and implicated my entire family. In the end, my entire family was sold to Zhou’s Dental Clinic.”
“Fortunately, 1 have a slight friendship with the person-in-charge of the dental clinic in Nan’an County, so my family was not separated.”
Zhao Fu bowed to Lin Xiaoyue again.
“Madam Hei went to Third Master Zhou’s house to get servants, and 1 happened to be at Third Master Zhou’s residence. 1 thought it was a good place to go. That was why 1 recommended us to Madam Hei and begged Third Master Zhou to come to the Liu family.”
A young lady was in charge of the Liu family.
The son-in-law was married into the family and he and his nephew were saved by the Young Miss, so he wouldn’t do anything out of line.
Also, the two Young Masters were still young, and they were studying in the academy. His grandson could go with them to be their a.s.sistants, and in the future, he would also be literate.
Zhou Shi nodded at Lin Xiaoyue, indicating that Zhao Fu was telling the truth.
Her third cousin was planning to have the family serve him.
However, she came before his third cousin could say anything and b.u.mped into them.
Zhao Fu was smart. After hearing about the situation, he took the initiative to request to come to the Liu family.
Her third cousin wanted to do the Liu family a favor because of the spicy cabbage matter. That was also in his favor.
Lin Xiaoyue’s lips curled up.
“Since that’s the case, you can stay.”
“Thank you, Miss!” Zhao Fu quickly bowed.
The Zhao family members hurriedly followed suit and bowed.
Lin Xiaoyue smiled.
“There are not many rules in our family. If you do well, 1 will definitely not treat you unfairly.”
Lin Xiaoyue looked at Zhao Fu.
“Uncle Fu, you used to be the Zheng family’s housekeeper, so you must have a lot of experience. Although the Liu family is small in numbers, we have some business to take care of.”
“Since you have joined the Liu family, you are family too. How about 1 make you the housekeeper of the Liu family?”
Zhao Fu was delighted.
“Thank you Miss, 1 will definitely do my best to repay you.”
Lin Xiaoyue smiled and looked at Zhao Kang and Zhao Qiang.
“Zhao Kang, Zhao Qiang, you two come with me and help me run errands and take care of the family business. If you perform well, you will be rewarded.”
Zhao Kang and Zhao Qiang looked at each other with joy in their eyes.
“Thank you, Miss!” They hurriedly bowed.
Lin Xiaoyue then looked at Chen Shi and Ma Shi.
“Chen Shi, in the future, you will serve my mother and work in the kitchen with Ma Shi.”
“Yes!” The two of them hurriedly bowed.
“Zhao Dabao, you’ll be Qing’er’s errand boy in the future. When Qing’er goes back to the academy, you will go with him to take care of his daily needs.”
One could bring an a.s.sistant to the academy, and she would be able to arrange for Zhao Dabao to go as long as she paid extra accommodation fees.
“Thank you, Miss!” Zhao Dabao quickly went forward and bowed.
Hearing that he could go to the Academy, his face was full of joy.
His father had taught him the Three Character Cla.s.sic, so he had learned it long ago.
He wanted to learn more, but his father didn’t have the time to teach him.
Although he couldn’t enter the academy to listen to the teacher’s lecture like Qing’er, he could eavesdrop outside the cla.s.sroom.
There was not much to do in the academy, so he had plenty of time to learn.
On the way here, he had heard from Madam Hei that Qing’er was twelve years old and was already studying in Cla.s.s 3A of the Qingyun Academy. It was very likely that he would partic.i.p.ate in the county examination next year.
Although the young master’s surname wasn’t Liu, his status wasn’t any lower than the young master’s.
If he pa.s.sed next year, his status in the Liu family would probably be even higher.
If he served him well, he would have a good life too.
The other members of the Zhao family were also very happy for Zhao Dabao.
Lin Xiaoyue’s gaze swept across everyone’s faces before finally looking at Zhao Shanshan.
“Zhao Shanshan…” she said.
Zhao Shanshan was timid and quickly went forward and bowed to her.
“Yes, Miss!”
“Raise your head.” Lin Xiaoyue glanced at Zhao Shanshan from head to toe.
The members of the Zhao family became nervous.
Zhao Shanshan shivered and raised her head.
Lin Xiaoyue finally saw Zhao Shanshan’s face clearly this time.
Her eyebrows were curved, her almond-shaped eyes were filled with love, and there was a mole under her left eye, making her look charming and flirtatious..
