Lin Haoming listened to Fang Ping continue to talk about the situation in Donggao Fucheng. Those forces were from the palace master's side, those from Wang Wenbin, and those subordinate fairy cities that were leaning towards the Pan family.
Lin Haoming felt that Fang Ping was indeed simpler, but he also felt from another perspective that Fang Ping had extremely high confidence in the Fang family. Since she was run by the Fang family, she naturally regarded herself as one of her own. She wanted to come here.
When Fang Ping was in the Fang family, she should have been the apple of her eye, otherwise she wouldn't have always looked superior to others, and even looked down upon Jian Shuhan to some extent.
Lin Haoming and Fang Ping met for a long time before leaving. When leaving, Xiu'er also followed Lin Haoming.
When Fang Ping returned to the backyard, Jian Shuhan just returned from the front house. After seeing her, he asked: "I heard that you gave Xiu'er to Lin Haoming?"
"Husband, you know." Fang Ping said nonchalantly.
"Madam, are you a little too enthusiastic about him?" Jian Shuhan asked.
"Husband, you know very well that Lin Haoming was run by the Fang family, so he is naturally one of our own. What's wrong with me treating my own people better? Husband, you said you don't want Xiu'er. Why are you still here after I give it away?
Are you reluctant to give up?" Fang Ping asked.
"Haha, of course not!" Jian Shuhan shook his head.
"Husband, don't worry. Lin Haoming has promised me that he will definitely support you. With Lin Haoming's support, your position will be more stable. Shouldn't you thank me?" Fang Ping said with a smile.
"Yes, I'll have some of your favorite side dishes cooked later, but you also have to choose a personal maid." Jian Shuhan said.
"That's right. I saw that Lin Haoming seemed to like Xiu'er before, so I gave him away on impulse. Although Xiu'er didn't follow me for a long time, he was very well-behaved. It would take a lot of effort to choose someone else. I'll first
Let's find a few people to come and take a look." Fang Ping sighed and walked away quickly.
"Dad, Mrs. Fang still thinks about the Fang family and doesn't regard herself as a member of the Jian family at all!" At this time, Jian Gong appeared next to Jian Shuhan and whispered.
Jian Shuhan looked at Jian Gong and said: "Jian Gong, you are the chief historian of the mansion because you know very well that you are the son of the Jian family and my son, unlike your younger brothers and sisters, who have the same surname as mine.
But it is the Pan family. They still don't understand why they can be respected by the Pan family. But even so, the Pan family is your mother's natal family after all. Fang Ping is just more innocent and has no bad intentions. This is also
Why can I tolerate her?"
"Dad, I understand, it's just that Lin Haoming? After arriving here, he didn't come specifically to visit dad. Instead, he came to see Mrs. Fang first. It seems that the Fang family also wants to have a hand here." Jian Gong said with some worry.
Jian Shuhan smiled and said: "Lin Haoming is an ascended monk. It has only been two months since he ascended. I'm afraid he doesn't even know what is going on in the immortal world. When he was in the lower realm, he heard that the patrolling immortal envoy was Fang Jing, so he had some relationship with the Fang family.
But all the ascended monks are arrogant. Do you think they are willing to be driven by others? Moreover, you are not unaware of the large number of ascended monks who have advanced to the realm of cultivation. Who knows whether he will also achieve cultivation in a few hundred years?
If you feel weak, will you still listen to the Fang family?"
"Dad, that's what you said, what about this pair?" Jian Gong asked.
Jian Shuhan pondered for a moment and said, "Let's take a look at the situation first. After all, no one knows what kind of person an ascended monk is."
"Yes!" Jian Gong agreed after hearing this.
Lin Haoming went back and sat in the carriage. As Lin Haoming's personal maid in the future, Xiu'er was no longer as free and easy as when she first met Lin Haoming. She looked very worried.
Lin Haoming looked at her and smiled bitterly in his heart. Xiu'er's cultivation level was lower than Shu Ting's. She was only at the early stage of the Golden Elixir, and there was still some distance from the middle stage. However, for a girl who serves people like this, even at the Golden Elixir stage is already pretty good. After all,
It takes resources to cultivate.
"Xiu'er, is your name Xiu'er?" The atmosphere was a bit awkward, but Lin Haoming took the initiative to ask.
"My original name is Tian Xiu!" Xiu'er replied.
"How long have you been following the palace master's wife?" Lin Haoming asked.
"I was bought into the mansion when I was six years old. At first, I accompanied the little lady. Later, when the little lady grew up and went to the Pan family, I didn't go with her. It happened that Madam's former personal maid was given to the Fang family by Madam.
A nephew, so she kept me by her side, even if there are still two years left, it will be a hundred years." Xiu'er replied.
Hearing this, Lin Haoming realized that this was not the first time that Fang Ping had given away her personal maid, but looking at Xiu'er, she must have been born in poverty, otherwise she would not have been sold.
"Is there anyone else at home?" Lin Haoming asked.
"My parents, brothers and sisters have all left. They are just ordinary people." Tian Xiu said, without seeming to have much emotion.
In fact, this is easy to understand. If you were sold at a young age, you will naturally not have much affection for your family. If you have more affection, you can still get along.
The distance between Zuo Duwei's Mansion and the Mansion Lord's Mansion was not too far, and he returned to the Mansion Office after a while.
Lin Haoming took Xiu'er back to the backyard and had already prepared dinner. Du Shuting, who was waiting for Lin Haoming to come back, was also stunned when she saw it.
"Sir! Are you ready for dinner?" Du Shuting asked while looking at Xiu'er behind Lin Haoming.
"Shu Ting, this is Xiu'er, who will be my personal maid from now on." Lin Haoming introduced.
"Yeah!" Du Shuting listened and nodded. But Lin Haoming could see that the girl was obviously nervous and felt threatened.
Xiu'er looked at Du Shuting and shouted playfully: "Hello, sister Shuting."
"Shu Ting, you are still the main one in the house. Xiu'er is responsible for taking care of my daily life. From now on, I will give him a salary of one hundred spiritual stones per month. Let's take her to settle down first." Lin Haoming ordered.
"Yes!" After hearing Lin Haoming's instructions, Du Shuting suddenly relaxed a little nervously. She knew that Lin Haoming did not want anyone to replace her. She still made the decision at home. Especially in terms of monthly salary, she was three times as much as the other party.
This shows that Lin Haoming values himself more.
Du Shuting took Xiu'er to settle down, but she put down some of her belongings and soon Xiu'er returned to Lin Haoming.
At this time, Lin Haoming was ready to have the so-called dinner as before. He looked at the two people who came over. Du Shuting had eaten them early in the morning. Today, because it was late to settle Xiu'er, Lin Haoming looked at them and said: "You guys
I haven’t eaten yet, why don’t we sit down together?” Lin Haoming said.
"Ah, sir, this is against the rules!" Du Shuting immediately refused.
"There's no one else here. Every time you finish eating early in the morning, you serve me. Isn't it troublesome? Just sit down. I don't have so many rules here. The same goes for you, Xiu'er. When there are no outsiders, just treat yourself as a member of the family.
." Lin Haoming ordered.
Hearing this, the two of them looked at each other and suddenly felt indescribable joy. You must know that in the fairy world, status is clearly defined. Lin Haoming's actions have already hinted that the two of them are his, and they have also eaten it.
A reassurance.
