Chapter 913: Chapter 913 Hua Xian

Although Hua Xian still didn’t know who Shu Yu was, she recognized that the other party was a kind person.

At the very least, much better than the brothel.

Moreover, just yesterday she heard brokers chatting, saying that there was a temperamental old man who wanted to buy two Maids to serve him, planning to send her over.

If she weren’t bought by this young lady today, her fate would be all too clear.

Therefore, after giving a bow to Shu Yu, Hua Xian gave Ding Yuehua a deep bow of gratitude.

Ding Yuehua waved her hand and simply said, “You, too, are blessed through misfortune. Following Yu is your good fortune. Serve her well and your days will not be bad.”

Hua Xian was momentarily stunned. She still didn’t quite understand the deeper meaning in Ding Yuehua’s words, not until she learned of Shu Yu’s identity did she grasp it.

Shu Yu then selected a middle-aged couple in this agency, previously a chef and assistant cook in a restaurant. Later, when disaster struck their hometown, they fled the famine, losing both their children and, penniless, had no choice but to sell themselves.

They had been previously bought by a tavern, but unfortunately, became victims during a feud within the boss’s family and were resold.

Shu Yu was originally looking to buy a kitchen maid, and since they were already chefs, it made things even more convenient for her.

Following that, she reserved a cleaning old women and a rather young coachman.

Beyond that, she did not take interest in anyone else.

The five of them walked out from the crowd, still somewhat anxious.

Shu Yu said to the broker, “I still have some things to do, so I’ll have to trouble you to first take them home for me. I’ll give you an address, once there, just explain clearly to the people inside.”

At this time, her father should be at the large estate.

Shu Yu still had to visit other agencies and naturally couldn’t take them with her.

The broker promptly agreed, and Shu Yu proceeded with him to complete the formalities.

After this transaction, the agency’s staff finally knew who she was, and they were all startled.

After Shu Yu and Ding Yuehua left the premises, the broker then said to Hua Xian and the others, “You have really struck it lucky, who knows, you might really stumble upon great fortune.”

The five exchanged glances, utterly perplexed.

It wasn’t until they followed the broker to Fenghuai Street and saw that large mansion, did they realize that the young lady who had bought them was none other than Monarch Lu Xiang, who had been the talk of Jiangyuan County these past few days.

Shu Yu picked five people at her first stop, and then she proceeded to the official agency.

Upon entering the carriage, Shu Yu thought back to what Ding Yuehua had mentioned about Hua Xian earlier, it seemed that the Eldest Young Mistress of the Fan family was quite difficult to get along with.

It looks like getting married has made daily life even more complicated.

Ding Yuehua noticed Shu Yu glancing at her from time to time and slightly turned to ask, “Why do you keep looking at me?”

After a moment of thought, she understood, “Is it because of what happened with Hua Xian?”

Shu Yu nodded very honestly, “The way you spoke about the Eldest Young Mistress from your family, she seems quite difficult to deal with?”

When this was mentioned, Ding Yuehua pursed her lips, “My Sister-in-law, she married into the Fan family more than a decade before me. At that time, the Fan family wasn’t as wealthy, and the daughters-in-law they chose were not from smaller households, but still, none compared to the families of my second sister-in-law and mine. My second sister-in-law has a gentle nature, and with my second brother gone, she keeps a low profile with her daughter. My own family is quite comparable to the Fan family, and as the legitimate daughter, I am doted on by my parents and siblings, brought a generous dowry, and my husband is very affectionate. She is jealous of me, and thus naturally finds me an eyesore.”
