Xie Yunjin glanced at the people in the room and then turned to look at Lu Jiao.

Lu Jiao spoke up, “They have been through a lot, so let’s keep them.”

With those words, she looked at Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong, “You can stay, but you have to sign a contract of servitude. In the Xie family, we don’t keep outsiders. Signing the contract makes you a member of my family, and we can return the contract to you in the future if you wholeheartedly serve the master.”

Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong were prepared for this and immediately agreed,

“Okay, we agree.”

Outside, Lu Gui happened to bring the four little ones and Zhao Yuluo in. As they entered, they were surprised to see the room filled with adults and children.

Lu Jiao looked at Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong, “Li Nantian, you will be responsible for guarding the house and also for teaching the young masters martial arts. Zhou Shaogong, you will be in charge of driving the carriage for my husband.”

Previously, their family wanted to hire a coachman, and now these two people had come, so they quickly made arrangements.

As soon as Lu Jiao finished speaking, the Second Born happily rushed over and asked Lu Jiao, “Learning martial arts? I want to learn. In the future, I will become a great general.”

When the Second Born said this, Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong looked at him with excitement. This young master could be nurtured well. They could fulfill their unfulfilled wishes through him.

Lu Jiao patted the Second Born’s head and reminded him, “You have to study hard, you know?”

Second Born vigorously nodded and said, “Mother, I know.”

Lu Jiao pointed to the three children in the room and said to the four little ones, “From now on, there will be four other children in the house. I have decided to assign a playmate to each of you. They will be your own playmates from now on, accompanying you in play and study. You will all grow up together. You must treat them well.”

The four little ones looked at the three little ones in the room in surprise, and the three little ones stared back in astonishment.

Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong were the most excited. According to Lady Lu’s words, their children would study with the young masters.

“Master, can our children also study with the young masters in the future?” They asked while kneeling down.

Lu Jiao nodded, “Yes, they can study together with the young masters. How much they can learn depends on their efforts.”

Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong were overjoyed and thanked them while kneeling down, “Thank you, masters.”

Lu Jiao looked at Lu Gui and said, “Take them and settle them down.”

With so many people in the house, it was really getting crowded. They moved here only a short while ago.

Lu Gui promptly led Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong out, and the four little ones followed behind the three children as they left.

In the room, Zhao Lingfeng quickly spoke up, “I’ve delivered these people, and

I have something to attend to. I’ll take my leave.”

After saying that, he grabbed his daughter, Zhao Yuluo, and tried to leave. Zhao Yuluo pouted unhappily and looked at her father, “Daddy, why do the quadruplets have their own playmates, but I don’t? I want one too, I want one too.”

Zhao Yuluo threw a tantrum, and Zhao Lingfeng quickly spoke up, “Alright, Dad will find a little maid to serve you when we get back.”

“Ok.”

Zhao Yuluo became happy, and Zhao Lingfeng turned around with her and said to Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao, “I’ll take her home for now and come back tomorrow.”

Lu Jiao nodded, and Zhao Lingfeng quickly left with his daughter. Lady Tian also bid farewell to Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao and left. “Jiaojiao, when the crisis is over, come to my house as a guest.” “Sure, I will definitely visit your house then.”

Lu Jiao called Feng Zhi to escort Lady Tian out of the residence.

In the room, Xie Yunjin, with an expression of calmness, glanced at the departing Lady Tian. When he turned back to Lu Jiao, his face appeared particularly gentle.

He looked at Lu Jiao and said gently, “With so many servants added to the household all of a sudden, gather everyone together tonight in the courtyard to distribute tasks properly. We can’t have chaos; we must strictly follow the rules. ”

Lu Jiao agreed with Xie Yunjin’s words; otherwise, things would become unruly.

In the evening, all the servants were summoned to the front courtyard for a talk.

Lu Jiao glanced down and saw that there were quite a few people. In such a short time, their household had gone from having only seven servants to more than a dozen.

In fact, if it weren’t for Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong being the two trusted subordinates of Xie Yunjin in the , Lu Jiao would not have kept them. But because of her appearance, which disrupted the original plot of the book, she had no choice but to retain Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong.

However, although there were more people at the moment after she and Xie Yunjin separated, these servants would be divided into two groups, so the number wouldn’t be excessive.

After some self-reflection and reorganization, Lu Jiao’s mood became more tranquil.

She looked at the group of servants below and said, “I gathered everyone here today to inform you that our household is growing in numbers. Therefore, we need to reassign tasks. From now on, each of you will have your own responsibilities. You must strictly abide by the rules and not cause any disruptions.”

The people all responded in unison, “Yes, Lady Lu.”

Lu Jiao swept her gaze over the people below and made arrangements, saying,

“Zhao Gui will be in charge of the courtyards.”

Zhao Gui immediately stood up happily and glanced at everyone. In such a short time, his sister’s household had unexpectedly gained so many servants, and now he was in charge of managing all these people. Goodness, Lu Gui felt like he was going to faint.

Seeing Lu Gui’s foolish appearance, Lu Jiao felt a headache coming on and didn’t bother looking at him. She turned her gaze toward the people below and continued speaking.

“Uncle Lin will be responsible for the horse. Aunt Hua will be in charge of the kitchen. Lin Dong will run errands for my husband. Uncle Wen will be in charge of guarding the gate. Aunt Qiu will handle the miscellaneous affairs in the courtyards, and as for Feng Zhi, she will serve as my senior maid and take care of social interactions, welcoming and bidding farewell to guests.” The people arranged at the bottom responded in unison, “Yes, Lady Lu.’ Lu Jiao then looked toward Liu An, Liu Fu, and the others.

“Liu An and Liu Fu will work in my courtyard, Ruan Kai will be my husband’s bodyguard, and Ruan Zhu will be my bodyguard.’

These newly assigned individuals responded once again in unison, “Yes, Madam.”

Lu Jiao then looked toward Li Nantian’s family and Zhou Shaogong’s family.

“Li Nantian will serve as the guardian of the Xie residence, also responsible for teaching martial arts to the young masters in the household. Of course, if my husband needs you for something, you must follow his instructions.” “As for Zhou Shaogong, he will be my husband’s dedicated coachman.”

Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong both accepted in unison.

Lu Jiao lowered her head and looked at the children brought by Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong—three boys, plus Lin Xi, making a total of four.

“As for these four little ones, they can be placed alongside my four sons to serve as playmates for them.”

After Lu Jiao finished speaking, Uncle Lin, Li Nantian, and Zhou Shaogong were all delighted. They could tell that the four young masters of the Xie family had been taught to be very well-mannered and polite. They were also very clever. They undoubtedly had a promising future.

Their own children would surely benefit from being with the young masters. Being with the young masters would allow them to learn many things..
