Since the first day, when Yin Xuetong entered the prisoner camp, people around her kept telling her that there was no hope to leave here in this life, because the most basic requirement of those rich families to buy servant was being healthy, and she...
Yin Xuetong’ left hand touched her soft right arm, which had been broken for more than a half year. All tendons and veins of her right arm were necrotic. Even the best doctors in the Qinghe Town couldn’t cure her. She didn’t know why a disabled girl like her would be among the selected people.
She looked up and saw the girl standing in the crowd, who never said a word. She was her future owner. What on earth was…the criteria for her to select people?
In the third round, Qu Qingning took the Dictionary of Dahan and began to test the knowledge of the rest people. Some answered very smoothly, some stuttered, and some were pale, and they could not answer anything.
Soon, it was Yin Xueto
Heidan passed through the ornate hall on the first floor and went into the administrator’s room. There he walked to the back of the bookcase and twisted it gently. The bookcase moved away slowly and a secret door appeared.The emaciated young man and Yin Xuetong stood behind him looking afraid. The situation was different from what they had originally thought. A secret door? Surely this meant they would be killed?“Come.”Then Heidan muttered words such as “luck” and they felt confused. They could do nothing else but follow Heidan.The underground chamber of their imaginations did not appear. After they crossed a stone path, they came to a bright central room. When they arrived, Heidan asked them to wait for a moment. He left and closed the door. Yin Xuetong and the emaciated young man looked at each other, and they saw doubt in each other’s eyes.They were just servants. Who on earth wanted to see them?
Both Fang Yuan and Qu Qingning felt helpless when they heard what Su Li said. They didn’t know what she wanted. But since Su Li told them to leave, she must have something to tell Fang Mu and Yin Xuetong alone.Qu Qingning stood up first, scratched his head, and gave Yin Xuetong a reassuring look. Then he immediately went out of the underground secret room with Fang Yuan, and closed the door.Fang Mu and Yin Xuetong looked at each other and both felt stupefied.According to what she just said…she was Mr. Li?Mr. Li actually was a girl who was 13 or 14?Yin Xuetong couldn’t help but remember that the Mr. Li she saw during the day was a little taller than Su Li. It was weird…Su Li looked at Fang Mu and Yin Xuetong with a smile after she sipped her tea. She said, “For Fang Yuan and Qu Qingning’s sake, I will cure you both and the Linli Building will take you in. However, there are conditions!”F
It was a cold winter day, and the wine glass was steaming. The osmanthus fragrance spread slowly throughout the building. The senior drinkers nearby couldn’t help but swallow their saliva and eagerly watched the wealthy childe drink.Although it required a higher level of acting, this was not a problem for Yin Xu, because he used to be a liar in the Nanjiang Country. Afterwards, he was captured by feudal officials. Then he was forced to be a soldier and became cannon fodder on battlefields.When the wine reached his throat, the pungency in imagination didn’t suffuse inside him. Instead, he felt a taste of mellowness and smoothness as if it was silk not wine that he had swallowed. The strong osmanthus fragrance spread in his body and made all his pores open, which was extremely comfortable.“It is not wine. It is clearly a kind of addictive poison!”Yin Xu had a whole glass of wine and became a little drunk. He had forgotten that he
“Oh?” The youth raised his eyebrow, “Where is it?”“On the second-class street in the eastern town. The Linli Building. It sells the highest grade osmanthus wine. It has only been opened for two days but it's overcrowded!” The butler boasted about it for fear that the youth was not satisfied, “However, I haven’t found its patron. I only know of a person called ‘Mr. Li’ who chose servants from the broker house the other day. Now those servants have become waiters of the Linli Building.”The youth was more interested in it and said, “It earns seven thousand taels after starting business for only two days? That's interesting. I have never heard of ‘Mr. Li’. He is secretive and maybe doesn’t have any great ability. Go to draw your reward and meet with the Linli Building’s administrator tomorrow. If they don’t agree, do you know what to do?”The butler was very happy and immediately knelt and kowtowed to him, “Thank you, Master! I know. I know!”
“Ms. Li’s letter?”In his study, Yan Ziye received the report and was puzzled. The mysterious woman who had always been composed at the prisoner camp on that day flashed in his mind.“Let him come in.”Yan Ziye waved his hand. The relationship between Ms. Li and him was not close. He wanted to know what on earth she wanted.After a short period of time, Yin Xu walked into the study and saw Yan Ziye. He couldn’t help but be surprised. Wasn’t he the adjutant whom he had met at the prisoner camp the other day?Yan Ziye felt that that person in front of him was a little familiar. After he thought back, he remembered that the person was one of the prisoners of war brought back by Ms. Li?!Unexpectedly, after half a month, the person’s spirit was completely different. He didn't look like he had been in the prisoner camp at all.“Ms. Li’s means of training people is superb...”Yan Ziye c
In front of Yan Ziye’s eyes, there was a cup of wine staying in the air. It seemed that it was dragged by an invisible hand so that it did not sag.Such a strange scene made Yan Ziye’s mouth dry. He hesitated to take the unfinished sentence out of his mouth.“Can it be pulled open only by the inborn senior?”Su Li chuckled to finish the sentence and then opened her hand immediately. The cup of wine staying in the air was immediately pulled and returned to Su Li’s hand automatically.“The most obvious sign of the legendary inborn realm is telekinesis. Childe Yan, am I right?”Su Li’s hoarse and magnetic words rang in his ears. Yan Ziye’s whole body was cold, and he looked steadily forward. His face couldn’t make any expression and turned to be wooden.This female who seemed to be in her twenties was... inborn unexpectedly?!The legendary inborn senior could confront thousands of troops by himse
At the moment, Butler Jin sat in the village with a towel covered on his face. He scolded angrily,“I do not care! Don’t forget that you are all servants of the Jin Family. The First Master will be the head of the Jin Family in the future. He may even become a general of the Dahan Country. How dare you disobey his order?!”The three headmen of the Tiger Village all looked sullen after hearing that. Although Butler Jin was telling the truth, his words were harsh and coarse. He didn’t save their face.Then the well-built First Headman stood up. He said in a deep voice, “Butler Jin, since you put it that way, we surely will not refuse you. But you should give us some time to prepare, otherwise it would mean a handle to other people. If we were encircled and suppressed by the feudal official, the Jin Family would also be affected.”Butler Jin snorted and coldly said while swallowing his anger, “By tomorrow at the latest! Catch all memb
Although cold wind whistled outside, the warm room was as warm as the spring because of the fire of the stove.Yan Hongxiu pushed the door open and rushed in with her maid Huan. When she came in, her shivering body because of the cold weather instantly stretched. She glanced at Su Li who was sitting beside the teacher’s desk and snorted while returning to her seat.The other seats were still unoccupied. Yan Hongxiu was the first to come.The remaining four people got into the warm room before long. Jin Ruolan was still the last one, but she arrived on time in any case.The other people immediately looked at Jin Ruolan askance when she appeared. There was a hint of coldness in Yan Hongxiu’s eyes. The rumors about the Jin Family were widely spread. They had never thought Jin Ruolan dared to attend class in such a sensitive period.Jin Ruolan felt bitter. She didn’t want to have class at all, but she had no choice but com
