Lin Jiuyue nodded.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"No, no, no problem. I, I just didn't expect that you could actually buy our family of three. You are such a kind person, good people will be rewarded..."

Tears were on the woman's face and she kept expressing her gratitude.

"That's out of line. Since the girl has already said she wants to buy you, you are her slaves. Why do you still call yourself 'I'?"

The woman was stunned for a moment and wiped the tears from her face with her hand.

"Yes, yes, yes, I was just too excited and forgot my dignity. I hope you won't mind, young lady."

Lin Jiuyue: ...

Old slave? This woman's age in the 21st century is just middle-aged, right? She has absolutely nothing to do with the word 'old'!

However, the average life expectancy in ancient times was much shorter than that of people in the 21st century. Furthermore, ordinary people worked hard and did not receive much nutritional supplements, which made them look older.

Lin Jiuyue nodded slightly.

"No problem."

The young girl standing by looked at Lin Jiuyue quietly when she heard that Lin Jiuyue wanted to buy her family. But Lin Jiuyue did not miss the gratitude in her eyes.

After paying the silver to the servant, Lin Jiuyue left with the servant he had bought.

Shangbei Village was not far from the town. Lin Jiuyue had come here on horseback, so she couldn't bring so many servants with her. But she was afraid that the servants wouldn't be able to find their way home, so she had to lead the horse and the servants back home.

"Miss Lin, you're back?"

As soon as they arrived at Shangbei Village, a villager greeted Lin Jiuyue. Lin Jiuyue responded and walked home with her servants.

The servants behind him originally saw that Lin Jiuyue was so generous and bought so many servants at once. They thought that Lin Jiuyue's family was a wealthy family. They were secretly happy in their hearts.

But as they walked further and further, until they reached Shangbei Village, everyone realized that Lin Jiuyue was actually a country boy.

The servants, who had been somewhat happy at first, now looked a little unhappy. However, no one spoke aloud.

Lin Jiuyue also felt the servant's emotional changes.

"Well, Auntie, you're back. Did you just come back from the fields?"

The women in the village looked at the person following Lin Jiuyue curiously.

"Yes, I just came back from the fields. Miss Lin, are these people behind you your relatives?"

Miss Lin had said before that she didn't have many relatives, so why did she bring back so many people now?

Lin Jiuyue smiled.

"no."

When the villagers heard Lin Jiuyue's words, they became even more confused.

Isn't this person a relative of the Lin family? Then why is he following Miss Lin?

Look at these people more carefully. They are following Miss Lin with timid expressions. Why are they like servants?

"Miss Lin, this, this couldn't be the servant you bought, could it be?"

Lin Jiuyue smiled, neither refutating nor admitting.

The woman who spoke to Lin Jiuyue understood immediately when she saw her expression.

"Miss Lin, is this really the servant you bought?"

"Oh, this is incredible, Miss Lin. Your Lin family is the first family in Shangbei Village to buy a human being. Incredible, incredible."

Lin Jiuyue: ...

"Aunt, my family is small, and I can't take care of many things normally. It would be easier if there were more people."

"Well, Auntie, I have something else to do, so I'll go back first."

Lin Jiuyue said a few polite words and left with everyone.

The woman looked at Lin Jiuyue's leaving back and was in a daze for a long time.

"Oh, the Lin family bought someone! This is a big deal, I have to go talk to them."

Lin Jiuyue had already disappeared before the woman finally realized what was happening. She muttered something to herself and then ran home as if someone was chasing her.

After returning home.

"Uncle Li, please close the gate."

The man called Uncle Li responded nervously.

"Miss, I am a servant, not worthy of being addressed as such by you. Just call me by my name."

Lin Jiuyue frowned when she heard this.

After the man closed the gate, he took a chair and placed it behind Lin Jiuyue.

Lin Jiuyue looked at the man with appreciation.

As expected of him having worked for a wealthy family, his vision is indeed much better than the others.

The people who were bought were not completely tactless. At least before Lin Jiuyue started talking, everyone stood in a row very politely.

In addition to the family of three called Uncle Li, there were three other servants who were bought.

Lin Jiuyue glanced at the three servants she had bought one by one, and then spoke.

"You are my servants, and we will be living together as master and servant for a long time. As your master, I must make some things clear to you first."

After saying this, Lin Jiuyue glanced at everyone again.

The servants standing in a row looked frightened when they saw Lin Jiuyue's gaze falling on them.

"Let me explain briefly first. My family is small, and there's not much to do at home. Not all six of you will be staying at home."

"It's enough to have Aunt Li at home. Li Xue will stay with me first. As for the others, there are other arrangements."

After hearing this, Li Xue looked at Lin Jiuyue in disbelief.

In wealthy families, servants who can follow the master are all very popular with the master.

How could I, a slave sold by the previous master, be qualified to be with my master?

"My lady, I am afraid that I am not up to the task."

Lin Jiuyue frowned.

This girl used to live in a wealthy family, so how could she not have any confidence at all? Not only did she lack confidence, she was also so timid!

"Li Xue, as a servant, whatever the master says is what you have to do. Don't you understand this little rule?"

After hearing what Lin Jiuyue said, Li Xue was so scared that she stood aside with her head down and dared not speak.

Aunt Li, Li Xue's mother, tugged at Li Xue's clothes beside her.

"Miss, it is an honor for Li Xue that you let her stay with you. Li Xue, she just came home and is a little uncomfortable for a while. I hope Miss will not blame her."

Uncle Li standing by was also very nervous.

We finally met a master who was willing to buy our whole family. If we make the master angry, he will send our whole family back to their parents. Then our family will be in dire straits and we won't even have a place to cry.

"Miss, Li Xue is a little uncomfortable, but she will be fine in a few days."

Lin Jiuyue waved her hand.

"I'm talking to Li Xue. Don't interrupt."

When Li Xue's parents heard what Lin Jiuyue said, they looked at Li Xue worriedly, fearing that Lin Jiuyue would be unhappy and send her back.
