Reborn as the spoiled male wife of the mortal enemy

Chapter 61 Seeing Old Friends Again

Many people saw Ah Fu seeing Lu He off and giving her money.

The servants in the house all said that the second young master and the second young mistress were kind and generous.

After Lu He left, Jingyuan was left without a servant. The servants in the other courtyards stretched their necks, all wanting to come here.

"Second Young Master, Jingyuan really doesn't have enough staff. Not to mention the servants, we must arrange for security guards. The head of the family is still frightened by what happened two days ago!" said Butler Bai.

Bai Xun nodded and said, "Uncle Shan, find some new people from outside!"

Butler Bai was slightly startled, then smiled and said, "Yes, I'll arrange it right away."

After saying that, Bai Shan went to the main courtyard with a smile on his face and told Bai Yishui about this.

Bai Yishui nodded and said, "He finally understands the importance of training his own people."

"Yes, the second young master has always been easy-going. You, the head of the family, have been worried that he would not be able to bear the burden of the Bai family. Now you can rest assured." Bai Shan said with a smile.

Bai Yishui picked up his pen and wrote the word "Ren".

“There’s still a long way to go!”

Two days later, Butler Bai brought a few people to Jingyuan.

Bai Xun frowned slightly and said, "Isn't that a bit too much?"

"Jingyuan is already short of staff, and now we have lost a capable person. The head of the family wants you to pick a few more available ones." Bai Shan said with a smile.

"You come and pick someone to serve you closely!" Bai Xun said to Nanchun.

Nanchun looked at the people standing in front of him and found a familiar face among them.

In the previous life, in the villa, he followed Ah Fu and served Jindou, who was Bai Xun's golden bean.

Although the time he served was not long, the child was smart and simple-minded.

Jindou was now a thin, dark-skinned man, wearing a patched, washed-out, coarse cloth. A few strands of hair hung unruly across his forehead, obscuring his dark, shiny eyes.

Bai Xun followed Nan Chun's gaze and asked, "What's your name? How old are you?"

Jindou raised his head and replied timidly, "My name is Jindou, and I'm fourteen years old."

"I'm a little young."

Bai Shan said, "Although this child is young, he is nimble, diligent, and perceptive. His parents are both dead, and at the age of six he became a servant in the home of Mr. Li, a wealthy man in the county town. Mr. Li moved his family to Wencheng, and was forced to dismiss his servants."

"Let's choose him. I think he is quite attractive." Nanchun said.

"Thank you, young master!" Jindou kowtowed quickly.

"This is the second young lady." Bai Shan reminded.

Jindou was slightly startled, then quickly changed the subject with a smile, "Thank you, Second Young Madam!"

Nanchun curled the corners of her lips. This child was indeed as likable as in the previous life.

Bai Xun selected four martial artists as guards and said, "That's all."

Bai Shan frowned and said, "This... we have to choose two servant girls, right?"

Bai Xun wanted to refuse, but he saw Jindou suddenly kneeling on the ground.

"Second Young Master, Second Young Madam, Sister Lingyun used to serve with me at the Li family. She is clever, hardworking, and capable. Before Miss Li got married, she was the head maid in charge of the Miss's courtyard."

Lingyun...

Yes, there is such a person.

He seems to be from the same hometown as Jindou.

In the previous life, I served in the old lady's courtyard.

Later, he died in an accident, and Jindou was sad about it for a long time.

"Who is Lingyun?" Nanchun asked.

"Meet the Second Young Master and the Second Young Madam."

A girl with a simple bun and wearing a blue coarse cloth dress took a step forward without changing her expression and saluted politely.

Nanchun hesitated for a moment and looked at Baixun.

"You can stay. The courtyard is indeed short of a maid to take charge. But since you are new here, you should get familiar with the place first and see if you can handle the responsibility." Bai Xun said.

"Thank you, Second Young Master, Second Young Madam."

"Uncle Shan, let's leave it at that!" Bai Xun said.

Baishan nodded and left with the rest of the people.

"Afu, take them to their respective residences to rest. Tell the kitchen to prepare their meals well." Bai Xun said.

"Okay, you guys follow me!"

Nanchun looked at the direction they left with a smile on her face.

"What? Do you like that kid very much?" Bai Xun asked.

Nan Chun touched his nose unnaturally and said, "Seeing him is like seeing myself as a child."

Bai Xun raised his eyebrows and said, "You were more lively than him back then."

Nanchun knew that what he said was not good, and curled her lips and said, "Isn't it because of you?"

"Because of me? You don't even talk to me, how can it be because of me?"

Nan Chun rolled her eyes at him and said, "You just love to play dumb! Would you have paid any attention to me if I had spoken to you then? You were so warm and welcoming to everyone else, but you were so cold and indifferent to me.

Those who want to flatter you think you hate me. Isn't that why they bully me? If I hadn't been more active, I would have been eaten alive long ago!"

"sorry."

Nan Chun was so confused by his straightforward apology that she didn't know how to react for a moment.

"It's...it's not your fault."

Bai Xun leaned forward slightly and kissed the corner of his mouth.

Nanchun covered her mouth and took two steps back, blushing and saying, "It's outside..."

"Come with me to the county town tomorrow."

"Really?" Nanchun looked at him in surprise.

"Well, I'm going to the porcelain shop in the city to take a look. You come with me."

"A porcelain shop? An antique shop?"

Bai Xun shook his head and said, "No, it was fired in the Bai family's own kiln."

Nanchun really didn't know that the Bai family had such a business.

Bai Xun saw his confusion and explained, "The porcelain shop in the county town was only opened last year. It's on Dongxin Street."

"No wonder, I didn't see it before. I heard that Dongxin Street only sells expensive things, so I didn't dare go there."

"I'll take you for a nice stroll tomorrow."

In the afternoon, Lingyun brought tea and snacks.

The snacks looked particularly pretty, like blooming flowers.

"Hey? What is this? It's so beautiful!" Nanchun asked with a smile.

Lingyun smiled and said, "To answer the Second Young Madam's question, this is called Lotus Pastry. I made it myself. I thought it would be very suitable to eat in this season."

Nanchun picked up a piece and tasted it. It was crispy, sweet and delicious.

"Delicious! Bai Xun, you should try some too! Lingyun, you have such a skillful hand!" Nanchun praised. "Did you make a lot? If so, try some yourself and give some to Ah Fu, Jin Dou and the others."

Lingyun was slightly startled and said, "This..."

Seeing this, Bai Xun said, "Just do as you are told. Jingyuan doesn't have so many rules."

Lingyun quickly responded: "Yes."

Jindou ate the lotus cake and said with a smile, "I thought a man's wife must be very strange, but I didn't expect the second young lady to be so nice."

Lingyun slapped him on the head and said, "Be careful with your words and actions! Since you know that the Second Young Master and the Second Young Mistress are good people, you should serve them wholeheartedly from now on and never cause them any trouble!"

Jindou nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes! I will!"
