Chapter 599: Chapter 599, Inquiry (6th Update)
Auntie Chen hurriedly answered.
She led them to their new accommodations.
Xie Zhinuan didn’t specify where to place them, and certainly not in the guest quarters, but the estate was large enough, with plenty of back courtyards, that these people would naturally have to live separately.
Auntie Chen took them there first. The boys and girls were separated, and about ten won shared one courtyard, all sleeping on heated brick beds, with several people sharing a room.
“Aren’t there many rooms available over there? Why can’t we stay there?” Lu Yuyu whispered.
The other won looked at her in astonishnt.
Having a place to live was already good enough, isn’t it? The clean and tidy look of the place was quite satisfactory, yet she still dared to ask for more.
Auntie Chen glanced at Lu Yuyu and pursed her lips before saying, “There are rooms available there, but you can only occupy three, the rest must be reserved for those who co after you!”
She didn’t say the surplus part.
She couldn’t be bothered to explain, but she gave Lu Yuyu another glance.
Nanny He and Nanny Zhang looked coldly at Lu Yuyu, noting to themselves that they would have to teach her more about the rules later. One must learn to be content; just because she had suffered in the past, it didn’t an she could make demands without restraint.
In this world, no one would indulge her, including her own parents, among whom there were so who were heartless and ruthless, not even recognizing their kin.
The others were quite compliant, though sowhat hesitant at heart, they beca reassured when they found themselves in such clean and spacious quarters.
Four people shared a room, but no one really wanted to be in the sa room as Lu Yuyu. They preferred to squeeze a bit rather than be near her.
In the end, she ended up alone in a room.
“It’s them who didn’t want to share a room with , not my fault!” Lu Yuyu complained with a sense of grievance.
Nanny He and Nanny Zhang, both seasoned in dealing with all sorts, easily saw through her self-satisfied deanor but chose to ignore her.
Right now, they were unaware of how Xie Zhinuan planned to settle these people, so it wasn’t their place to intervene too much.
The children, however, were obedient. The girls were settled in one room quite easily, all six of them, bare-headed, thin and scrappy, so shy and a bit timid.
The boys listened to Shitou’s commands and split into two rooms.
Nanny He found this arrangent very satisfactory.
Auntie Chen quickly had soone send over pillows and blankets.
Each person received a blanket and a pillow.
Soone else ca to take their asurents to prepare to distribute clothing.
It was convenient to provide clothing for the won, as there were many in the estate who could work and sew. Once they had the fabric and asurents, they could quickly make an outfit…
When Xie Zhinuan returned, Xie Yi had already run over and thrown himself into her arms, crying out, “Mother!”
“Have you been behaving?”
“Yes!”
Mother and son were affectionately engaged on one side, while Qin Mao looked on with envy.
He and his mother had never been so close.
It wasn’t that his mother didn’t cherish him, but as a female hero, she lacked the gentle affection seen in auntie figures.
Rourou was sitting on a chair to the side, sipping her tea with a cheerful grin.
She seed in a very good mood.
Duobao stood nearby, quite puzzled.
Rourou seed to lack decorum, and yet Xie Zhinuan wasn’t in the least bit annoyed.
After soothing Xie Yi, Xie Zhinuan patted Qin Mao’s head and asked a few questions before sending them off to back Grandfather up with the dical herbs.
Mu Rourou, it was said, had fallen in love with cooking and was quite talented at it, especially with pastries, the taste of which was quite pleasing. She was busy in the kitchen.
“…” Xie Zhinuan smiled and said nothing further.
Having hobbies was a good thing.
Once the two children had left, Xie Zhinuan turned to Duobao, “Hand over the items to !”
“Yes!”
Duobao stepped forward and respectfully presented two bundles.
“Were both prepared by King Han?” Xie Zhinuan inquired.
