The two of them knocked on the door of the manor. When the person who opened the door saw them, he hurriedly opened all the doors and said, "Boss, please come in." Then he called out to the inside.
As Chunxiao and the others entered the main courtyard, Wang Shiwen came over and said, "Boss, you're back!"
Chunxiao looked at his smiling face and said, "Manager Wang, we haven't seen each other for a long time." She smiled and said, "Zhuangzi has always been very nice."
"Boss, you've been gone for a year now. Everything is fine at the farm. Please take a seat. I'll bring you the account book later. We sold all the crops before last year's harvest, and the warehouse is filled with the new crops. We also have four pigs. Since you didn't come back, the boss let us make our own decisions. We slaughtered one for the New Year and sold the rest with the chickens. The money from the sales is recorded in the account, and..."
Wang Shiwen kept talking, so Chunxiao quickly stopped him and took them to the guest hall. "Manager Wang, the accounts are not urgent. I won't be leaving for a while. I'm here, so I just hope everything is normal at the manor. I spend a lot of time outside now, so I worry about what might happen at the manor. I'm relieved if nothing happens. It means you're still doing a good job."
"It's not my fault, it's the boss's arrangement," Wang Shiwen sat down below as she instructed, "If anyone in the village has a headache or fever, I prescribe medicine for them. It's all according to your instructions. I'm not reluctant to do anything. There's nothing wrong with this person, and there's nothing wrong with the village either." He seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and his expression became a little tangled, as if he found it difficult to speak.
"What's wrong?"
"Boss," he sighed, "there's a couple in our village who are having an affair. I discovered it and suppressed it. I really don't know what to do with this matter. It's a good thing you're back. Please tell me how to deal with it."
"Affair?" Chun Xiao was stunned.
"Yes, the two of them usually chat and laugh while working, and she even helps the man make clothes and shoes. I'm afraid they can't continue like this. I've already talked to them at the end of the year, but I still need to report this matter to you. If we don't come up with a set of rules, I'm afraid it will happen again in the future."
Isn't it normal for single men and women to develop feelings for each other after working together for a long time? However, for servants like these who sell their bodies, it's not their turn to decide on marriages. "Go call those two over. I'll ask them some questions and then set the rules for you."
Wang Shiwen glanced at her cautiously and said, "Boss, they haven't done anything out of line yet, and they're usually very active. Please, please be gentle with them."
"You go ahead."
"This manager is quite interesting. He was the one who made the complaint and also the one who asked for a lighter punishment." Xiaohua snorted as she watched the man walk away.
"You should learn from him. This is how he behaves as a qualified manager. If he keeps this kind of thing a secret and doesn't report it, what will happen if there are cases of men and women hanging out together in the future? Although he told me, he doesn't want me to punish those two people. This is understandable."
"Miss, what are you going to do?"
"Let's see first. If there are no other biased behaviors, this is not a bad thing."
Wang Shiwen soon came over with a man and a woman. The two entered the living room and knelt down when they saw Chunxiao sitting in the front. "Boss, please forgive us. We haven't done anything yet. Boss, please don't sell us out." The woman knelt on the ground and shrank.
The man knelt with his head down and said nothing.
Chunxiao asked Wang Shiwen to stand aside. "If I remember correctly, your name is Fu Lan and his name is Zhang Xun, right?"
The woman nodded repeatedly, "Boss, my name is Fu Lan, and we know we are wrong. You can beat us or punish us if you want, but please don't sell us out."
Chun Xiao looked at the man on the ground and said, "Zhang Xun, you know you're wrong. Look up and talk to me."
The man looked up at her with a guilty look on his face, "Boss, I know I was wrong. It's all my fault for having other thoughts about her. It's not her fault, it's mine. We haven't spoken much since the steward said that. Boss, we won't dare to do it again, definitely not."
"Everyone, get up! Don't kneel down." Chun Xiao asked Wang Shiwen to help them up. "Although Manager Wang told me about your situation, this is his duty. Don't blame him. He doesn't want me to punish you."
"I won't do that. I know what's good for me."
"It's okay as long as you know what's good for you. Zhang Xun, let me ask you, if you had the chance to marry Fu now, would you live a good life with her?"
Zhang Xun was obviously confused. Not only Zhang Xun was confused, but everyone present except Xiaohua was confused.
"Dong, Dongjia, what do you mean?"
"What can I mean?" Chunxiao stood up and walked up to the few people with a smile, "There has never been any happy event in our village. If you can be responsible for your future life, I will allow you to get married. This is a good thing, not a bad thing. I have no objection." She looked at Wang Shiwen, "Didn't you just ask me for the regulations? Let's agree that people in our village can get married. If they are all from the village, you can be the host and allocate a separate room to them. If it is not enough, find someone to build a few more rooms. If they are not from the village, it will be difficult to handle. It depends on the specific situation." She had overlooked this matter before. There were mostly men in this village, and mostly women in the north. If she had known it earlier, she would have been more balanced.
"Boss, I've taken note of what you said."
Zhang Xun and Fu Lan looked at each other and cried with joy. They knelt down in front of her again and said, "Thank you, boss." This reversal happened so quickly that they were caught off guard.
"Thank you, sir." If Chun Xiao hadn't stopped them, the two men would have kowtowed.
