Only seven or eight people remained. Xue Huan walked over and asked one of them, a man in his thirties, "Why did you choose to stay? Aren't you afraid?"

The man said, "Let's not talk about whether those ghost stories are true or not. Even if they are true, since you dared to buy this house, it means you must have a solution, so I have nothing to be afraid of."

Xue Huan nodded, this is a sensible person.

Those who had withdrawn couldn't help showing a look of regret after hearing what the man said. Yes, since this girl dared to buy the house, she must not be afraid. If she, as the master, is not afraid, what should they, the servants, be afraid of?

But it’s too late to regret now.

Xue Huan then asked the round-faced girl, "What about you? Why did you choose to stay?"

The round-faced girl spoke in a rather naive tone, "I eat a lot because this has been resold many times. If I don't keep it this time, I might starve to death. As for ghosts, I'm not afraid. I'm very strong. If a ghost comes to harm me, I'll fight it off!"

Xue Huan was amused by her, "You said you eat a lot, how much do you eat in that meal?"

The round-faced girl scratched her head and said a little embarrassedly: "I probably eat a whole bowl of rice for one meal."

After saying that, he was afraid that Xue Huan would dislike him, so he quickly added: "Actually, it's okay to eat less. Girl, I'm strong and can do any work. Please accept me."

Xue Huan patted her shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I won't let the servants go hungry."

The round-faced girl was stunned for a moment, then realized that she was willing to accept her and didn't mind that she ate a lot, and could let her eat her fill!

He was so happy that he jumped up and immediately knelt down in front of Xue Huan and kowtowed to her.

It happened so fast that Xue Huan couldn't react.

"Hurry up and get up! I don't like people kowtowing to me. Don't do that again."

"Yes!" The round-faced girl nodded brightly and quickly got into her role: "Miss, my name is Ah Man."

"This name is nice and suits you very well." Xue Huan didn't think about changing her or anyone else's name.

After briefly chatting with each of those who were willing to stay, Xue Huan paid the broker and got their indentures.

The broker took the others away, and before leaving, he reminded them as usual: "Miss Zhao, if you want to add more people in the future, please come to me, Old Peng, anytime."

"No problem."

There were eight servants in total bought this time. Xue Huan appointed the man in his thirties as the housekeeper. Knowing that he had experience as a housekeeper, Ah Man took him with her as a personal maid to help her with things. As for the rest of the people, they were assigned and managed by the housekeeper.

There are only eight servants in a three-story house, which is a bit too few, but this is just Xue Huan Majia's residence, and there is not much to do on a normal day. All they need to do is clean and take care of the garden, which eight people can handle.

Chen Tian, ​​the housekeeper, was indeed worthy of being a former housekeeper. Without Xue Huan's instructions, he had already arranged the people under him. Those who were supposed to clean cleaned, and those who were supposed to tidy up cleaned up. Everyone was mobilized by him and was busy working in an orderly manner.

Xue Huan took Ah Man out shopping to buy furniture and various decorations.

There are all kinds of shops in Fengchi County with a complete range of products. After walking around most of the city, Xue Huan had already bought everything she wanted. She left her address with the store and the store would send someone to deliver the goods to her door. The service was very thoughtful.

In addition, Xue Huan also bought a lot of miscellaneous things. This was the first time she had such a happy shopping experience since she traveled through time. The shopping desire that belonged to a woman in her heart was fully released, and she was very happy both physically and mentally.

What surprised her even more was that while shopping, she accidentally came across several objects with purple energy.

One of them is a flowerpot that a family casually placed on the wall. Needless to say, this flowerpot must be an antique, and it must have come from the palace. It’s just that this family did not know the value of it and used it as a flowerpot.

The passers-by didn't recognize him either.

Xue Huan bought the flowers with the pots in the name of buying flowers. The owner was very happy and said that there were more beautiful flowers planted in the yard and invited her to come in and take a look.

Since she had created a character who loved flowers, Xue Huan naturally went in. When she looked into the yard, she saw that it was indeed a riot of colour. The flowers and plants were all well-maintained and looked very pleasing to the eye.

Because Xue's mother was also a flower lover, Xue Huan was quite impressed by the owner who had such a large yard of flowers, and bought more than a dozen pots in one go.

The host was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling and kept promising to send the flowers to her house.

Xue Huan took Ah Man away, but Ah Man took the first pot of flowers they bought away with him.

The second object with purple aura was a gourd hanging outside a tavern.

The restaurant is not big, but it does good business. It must be an old shop with a long history, and the food tastes very good, which is why it attracts so many new and old customers to eat there.

The gourd was hanging under the eaves, about 30 centimeters high. Its surface was shiny and glossy, with a layer of jade glaze. It was obvious that it had been polished a lot.

The purple air above is quite dense, about one finger thick.

Xue Huan's palms felt hot and her heart was pounding. She walked over and touched the gourd, letting the Five Elements Bead absorb the purple air from it.

After absorbing the purple energy, she could feel a sense of joy and satisfaction coming from the Five Elements Pearl.

"You've been walking around for so long, you must be hungry. Come on, let's go in and have a meal before continuing shopping." Xue Huan took Ah Man into the tavern.

There are only seven or eight tables in the tavern. The person in charge of serving dishes and greeting customers is a young man. Because there are too many customers, he is a little overwhelmed. The woman behind the counter who is responsible for collecting money will come out from time to time to help greet customers.

A clear girl's voice came from the kitchen: "Brother, the fried meat with black fungus is ready!"

"I'm here!" The young man swiftly cleared a table and asked Xue Huan and the other person who had just entered the store to sit down, while he carried the pile of dishes into the kitchen.

Xue Huan guessed that this was a family-owned tavern, with a family of four busy working in the store.

Ah Man was still holding the flower pot, standing aside. Xue Huan said, "Put the flower pot down and sit down."

Although Ah Man felt that a servant should not eat at the same table with her master, since the lady said so, she sat down. Anyway, she would do whatever the lady said.

The proprietress came over and said, "What would you like to eat?"

Xue Huan noticed as soon as she came in that there were several palm-long wooden boards hanging on the north wall of the tavern, with the names of dishes written on them. In ancient times, there were no menus, so the restaurant either wrote the names of the dishes on the wooden boards and hung them in a conspicuous place, or just read the names of the dishes to the customers directly.

Since Xue Huan could read, she ordered a few dishes directly according to the wooden board. Remembering that Ah Man said she had a big appetite, she specially asked for a bucket of rice.

It's not the big wooden barrel used for steaming rice, but a smaller one.
