When Mu Yi'an returned, she saw six people standing in the courtyard and guessed that they were servants that Jiang Shuyun had bought.
She didn't say much and went to wash up and change her clothes. Jiang Shuyun was happy to see his wife return and quickly followed her into the inner room.
"Yi'an, I'm back. Did you miss me?"
"I've been missing them a bit. We've hardly been apart since we arrived, and it's starting to feel a little strange. Are the people in the courtyard all a family? What's the situation?"
Jiang Shuyun relayed what Aunt Mu had told Yi'an: this family seemed alright, and she hoped there wouldn't be any trouble.
Mu Yi'an tidied herself up, walked out of the inner room, and went to see the family.
"Greetings, Madam!"
"Okay, please introduce yourselves."
"Madam, this is my father-in-law Li Zhuang, my husband Li Hong, my eldest son Li Li, my eldest daughter Li Mei, and my youngest son Li Qiang."
After introducing her family members, Sister Li looked at the hostess and felt relieved, as she didn't seem harsh.
And you, what's your name?
"Madam, this is Yang Dani."
Mu Yi'an looked at the family of six. The older one had a more composed gaze, Yang Dani and her husband were also steady, and the three children were well-behaved.
Mu Yi'an sighed inwardly at the class system in ancient times. Such a well-trained servant must come from a family that was not small or insignificant. She had gotten a lucky break.
“My husband is a scholar, you can call him Master. And the children’s aunt, you can call her Great Aunt. There are three children in the family.”
My family is small, so tasks aren't divided so meticulously. For now, Aunt Li is in charge of the kitchen and cleaning. Uncle Li and his son, Brother Li, come with me to farm, and Aunt Li is teaching the two younger children to do whatever they can.
I hope you will forget the past and, from now on, focus your hearts on this family. We will not mistreat our servants; you must be loyal. Only when we prosper will you prosper as well.
Mu Yi'an's gaze swept over the family, hoping it wouldn't disappoint her.
"Understood, madam, we will do our duty and be loyal to our lord."
The Li family members were considered servants born into the previous master's household, and they knew how to be good servants.
