Chapter 180: Let’s Not Be Violent, Let’s Be Gentle
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“That’s not the case,” she explained. “A contract is used to limit the obligations and rights of both parties. I will get this contract verified by the governnt. During the validity of the contract, both parties must abide by the terms of the contract. 1 probably won’t be able to catch them if they run away at will, but in the end, they have lost their integrity.”
The Great Shu Dynasty’s punishnt for escaping slaves was quite severe.
This kind of thing might not pose any threat to Zhong Lang, but it would definitely pose a threat to the other people she recruited into her dical hall in the future.
Seeing that they were confused, Liu Shii said, “Of course, if you have to leave during the contract period for reasons beyond your control, or if you encounter an irresistible force, you can still terminate the contract early. If you have sothing to say, say it!”
“Then you an that you don’t want servants, you only want short-term workers!” Qi Yang ca to another conclusion.
“Actually, I don’t really like the word ‘slave’.” Liu Shii smiled bitterly.
“Alright.” Zhong Lang, who had been silent all this while, spoke up. “Miss Liu saved my life. Even if we don’t make a contract, 1 will still think of ways to repay you. Since you prefer this thod, I am willing to sign a five-year contract with you. Within five years, I’m willing to work for Miss Liu Shii!”
Liu Shii nodded.
“There’s no need to go through so much trouble,” Zhong Lang interrupted her and said. “I have been wandering for half my life and have never broken my promise to anyone. He said five years. Even if he didn’t need to pay, it would still be five years!”
Liu Shii was speechless.
She still wanted to object.
“Alright, alright! If he didn’t want to get paid, then he won’t get paid!” Huangfu Lingyao pulled Liu Shii’s hand and said. “Wife, this guy’s martial arts is very powerful, right? Then when soone bullies us in the future, can we ask him to go up and beat them up?”
When Qi Yang heard that, he could not help but laugh. “He’s one of the top five legends, Wuqi, and he’s now your personal thug?”
Liu Shii could not help but laugh. “Now, in the Imperial Capital, those who want to bully us have to think carefully before they dare to attack. Let’s not be violent, let’s be gentle, okay?”
She was the person who would fight at the slightest disagreent and tell her fiance that he had to fight back, and now she was also the person who said: We don’t want violence, we want gentleness!
Huangfu Lingyao lowered his eyes to hide the emotions in his eyes. He tightened his grip on her fingers.
Zhong Lang still needed to recuperate, so Liu Shii did not really want him to go to work imdiately. She did not need to do anything else here, so she decided to return to the Grand Chancellor’s Residence first.
After leaving for a few days, Mo’er would occasionally co over to tell her about the situation in the Grand Chancellor’s Residence. She said that Mrs. Zhang and Liu Yan’er had stopped.
When she returned to the Lotus Courtyard, Mo’er said, “The Grand Chancellor paid a huge price to exchange for ticulous treatnt for the Second Young Miss. The Second Young Miss’s leg has recovered quite well. I think Madam Zhang wants everyone in the Imperial Capital to know that Second Miss’s leg is injured, so she plans to let Second Miss attend the peony banquet in early April so that everyone can know that her leg is fine.”
“It’s been 100 days since she’s injured. She’s in such a hurry to make her presence known…” Liu Shii’s lips curled up coldly as she said. “She has planted evil karma. In the future, she won’t be able to do well even if I don’t need to deal with her!”
Liu Yan’er was a little impatient. She thought that once her bones had grown back, she could go and show off her glory as the candidate for the Crown Princess Consort. Her goal was to show that she was fine and that she would not be outdone by others.
If she paid attention to rest and did not overuse her legs, it would probably be fine.
But…
It was not that Liu Shii was looking down on Liu Yan’er, but Liu Yan’er was a fool. If the other three candidates did not want her to live well, it was impossible for her to rest!
The next day after returning to the Grand Chancellor’s Residence, Liu Shii was about to head out to the place to hire workers when she passed by the front yard. The butler ca to report, “Young Miss, the Grand Chancellor invites you to the front courtyard hall. Soone from the palace has co..”
