Chapter 183: Training, having her own people
Xiao Tianyao took this opportunity to make a deal with the Cui Family so that Lin Chujiu could get some benefits. Lin Chujiu didnt know this. Well actually, she didnt want to know. She knew that Xiao Tianyao will make an issue regarding her injuries. But, she does want to hear anything about it, so she left Xiao Wangfu in a hurry.
Zhuangzi is in the suburbs. The air is refreshing. The environment is good. Behind it, there is a mountain with abundant resources. In particular, Lin Chujius place has its own hot spring. Unfortunately, she was injured, so she wouldnt be able to enjoy it.
The people that stayed in Zhuangzi were originally Lin Chujius biological mothers people. The people were not confined in there. They only stayed out of loyalty. Lin Chujiu was warmly welcomed on her first day. When the Chief of Zhuangzi learn that Lin Chujiu was injured, he felt worried. He instantly lowered his voice, in fear of making Lin Chujiu uncomfortable.
When Lin Chujiu arrived at Zhuangzi, it was already in the middle of the night. She didnt have the strength to pleased everyone. She simply said two sentences and then went to her room. As for the people that came with her?
Lin Chujiu believes that they can take care of themselves.
Lin Chujiu sleep for a long time, she only woke up the next day afternoon. She didnt know if it was her heart or something, but when she woke, her spirit feels much better. And her wound is not as painful as before.
When the Chief of Zhuangzi learn that Lin Chunjiu woke up, he came immediately to ask if they could meet the princess. After all, they havent seen Princess Xiao for years.
Chunxi and Qiuxi wanted to send away the Chief of Zhuangzi, but they suddenly heard Lin Chujius voice. Lin Chujiu asked Chunxi and Qiuxi to help her out.
Wangfei, Doctor Wu said that youre seriously injured and shouldnt go out from the bed. Chunxi tried to persuade. But, Lin Chujiu looked at them coldly. As if she can see right through them. In fear, Chunxi moved back again and again and felt regret. She also felt that Lin Chujiu know their real purpose.
Yes, Lin Chujiu knows the truth. Xiao Tianyao sent so many guards and maids to her, so that she wouldnt make too much contact with Zhuangzis people. Also, so that she wouldnt have her own people.
However, if Lin Chujiu is so obedient, then she wouldnt be called arrogant Lin Chujiu, right?
The sky is vast and the birds can fly freely. The ocean is wide and the fish can leap at will. Now that she is not in Xiao Wangfu, she will never listen or follow Xiao Tianyaos arrangement.
Lin Chujiu meet the Chief of Zhuangzi and the others. Then, she gave everyone a reward. Several officials didnt know that Lin Chujiu will come, so they didnt prepare anything in advance. However, they recently dug out an old ginseng in the mountain, so they give it to her.
Lin Chujiu is a western medical doctor. But, she was also familiar with some precious herbs like ginseng. After seeing the quality of the ginseng, she knew that it is really good. After accepting their gift, Lin Chujiu added some more reward.
After the ceremony, Chunxi and Qiuxi tried to persuade Lin Chujiu to go back to rest. But, they suddenly heard Lin Chujiu said: Is there a twelve or thirteen year old girls in Zhuangzi? Women in this era, marry at the age of fifteen. So, she could only find people around this age to follow her.
If there is no people that could follow her, her injuries will get worse again. Lin Chujiu is not sure whether Chunxi and Qiuxi actually heard her words.
But in actuality, as soon as Lin Chujius voice fell, Chunxi and Qiuxi felt bad. They really didnt expect that Lin Chujiu doesnt trust them. And she didnt care about their Wangyes face. She wanted to gather her own people.
The Chief of Zhuangzi understood the meaning of Lin Chujius words. So, he immediately recommended his daughter and the daughter of another official.: Those girls are in the age of thirteen and fourteen. Both of them are quite sensible. If Princess Xiao is still interested, I can bring them here immediately.
Okay, bring them here. Ill take a look. Lin Chujiu said without hesitation. In order for her to have her own followers, she can only do this.
Lin Chujiu is not only against with Chunxi and Qiuxi but also hates them. She hates them not because they are not good at their work, but because they are Xiao Tianyaos people.
Soon, the Chief of Zhuangzi brought the two little girls. The two little girls dont have many decorations on themselves. They were only wearing clean clothes, with two long braided hairs. They look like a typical farm girl. Their hands and feet look a bit rough. In just one glance, a person could see that they dont work less.
From the start, Lin Chujiu ask a few questions. The two little girl seems not smart, but they are well behaved and obedient.
Im very glad to meet the two of you. From now on, you will stay with me and accompany me, so that I wont get bored. Lin Chujiu said and added: What are your names?
My name is Xui mei.
My name is Xiu Hui.
When the two little girls finished talking, they heard Chunxis dissatisfied voice: In front of Wangfei, you should refer yourselves as slaves.
With Chunxis arrogant tone, Lin Chujiu who felt bored laughs. While, the two little girls felt scared and immediately kowtow: Wangfei, this slave doesnt know what to do yet, please spare us.
The Chief of Zhuangzi was also terrified, so he busily kneels and apologizes.
Lin Chujiu didnt speak in a hurry, but her eyes swept over to Chunxi. Seeing her reluctant to withdraw, Lin Chujiu open her mouth and said: Now, now, you dont need to kneel. You are not my slaves or maidservants. You dont need to refer yourselves as slaves. You will be my companions. Or do you want to go back home now?
No, no, this This slave will serve Wangfei.Xiu Mei and Xiu Hui bow their heads to admit mistakes. Lin Chujiu didnt say more. She only said to Chunxi: Since these two girls are still interested, you can start training them. But, giving them penalty is unnecessary. You cant punish these girls.
This slave will obey, Chunxi said, but inside her heart, she secretly thought: I must make Wangfei see the stupidity of these two girls. And make Wangfei think that they cant follow rules.
Chunxi thinks so, but when she heard Lin Chujius next sentence, she completely dismissed her idea. I believe Xiao Wangfus maidservant is extraordinary people. If these two girls will not learn anything in three days, I will send you back to the capital.
Chunxi was so scared and made up her mind. She will make sure that these two girls will learn everything in three days.
Very good, you can all withdraw now. Lin Chujiu only speak a few words, but she felt really tired. So, she waved her hand to Qiuxi to help her get back to her room.
Compared to Chunxi, she really likes the two little girls. She doesnt need smart people, she needs people that would never do things beyond their position. That is why Lin Chujiu is very satisfied with them.
She doesnt need Xiao Tianyaos people to be loyal to her, as long as they do their job right, she can pretend not seeing them.
Lin Chujiu had slept for a long time, so she couldnt fell asleep at night. While giving herself infusion, she had an urge to urinate for multiple times. After she finished, Lin Chujiu could no longer hold it.
Sleeping during daytime is really not good. Lin Chujiu had already dismissed her maidservants. So, she was all alone in her room. Lin Chujiu touches the bedpost and stands up to go to the restroom. But then, another person touches the bedpost.
After Lin Chujiu finished and return to the room, she was stupefied: What am I seeing?
