Jin Shichu searched the entire house and found no thieves. He also remembered that there were many good things in his warehouse, so he quickly went to check the warehouse.
Fortunately, everything in the warehouse was intact and nothing was missing, so Jin Shichu breathed a sigh of relief.
When she finished all the work and went back to bed, she felt that her home was too empty. Three of the four people in the family were elderly. If a thief was encountered, there would be no one to beat her except herself.
Although their family is lucky and has not encountered a thief in the past ten or twenty years, Jin Shichu will not pin the fate of herself and her family on illusory luck. What she experienced that night made her understand that she No matter how powerful a person is, there will be some oversights. There is only one thief this time, what if there are three, four, four or five who come back?
Therefore, she decided to let Jin Xiangrong add more people to the family. Besides, Chen Shu and Nanny Guan were getting older and needed someone to help share their movements. Of course, Jin Shichu himself was lazy. If he had a maid to serve him, It couldn't be better.
So the next day, after Zhai Yuecheng left, Jin Shichu made a request to Jin Xiangrong: "Dad, let's add more people to our family. Uncle Chen and Aunt Guan will do all the work at home. They are too busy." Too tired."
Grandma Guan listened on the sidelines and said quickly: "Girl, I'm not tired! I just do some housework at home, how can I be busy?"
"Mommy, don't be so pushy. I saw you were so tired that you couldn't even straighten your back after washing the clothes. You have been working hard for our family for more than ten or twenty years, and you have done a lot of hard work. You should retire and have a good rest. "
"Girl, do you dislike me for not being able to do the work? I can wash the clothes slowly and I won't be unable to do it. Don't drive me away..." Grandma Guan suddenly became anxious and explained hurriedly.
Nanny Guan was bought by the original owner's mother from a trafficker. Her previous owner was very harsh on her, beating and scolding her, forcing her to do a lot of work, but often not giving her food, and later even when she was ill. After he got her, he sold her to a trafficker in disgust. The original owner's mother saw how pitiful she was, so she bought her back home.
Moreover, people in the Jin family are very kind and do not treat their servants harshly. After coming, Grandma Guan only needs to be responsible for daily housework. She has three meals a day and clothes and shoes. Silver rewards will also be given.
She has been in the Jin family for so many years and has long regarded the Jin family as her own. She sincerely wants to serve the Jin family all her life. But what Jin Shichu said today immediately reminded her of the sadness of being abandoned by her master, and she was filled with fear. Get up, for fear that you will be disliked.
When Jin Shichu saw her like this, he quickly comforted her: "Mommy, don't worry, I don't mean to disdain you for not being able to do the work. You have watched me grow up, and my father and I have long regarded you as a family member." Now, I will definitely keep you at home and send you to your old age, so how could I dislike you? I am just worried about your health, afraid that you are too tired. You and Uncle Chen are both old and it’s time to have a good rest. .
And even if there are new servants in the house, you won’t have anything to do. Don’t you still have to help discipline them? We can't trust those new servants, we have to keep an eye on them personally..."
After Jin Shichu talked hard, he finally dispelled Nanny Guan's inner fear and agreed to add a few new servants.
Jin Xiangrong had been listening to the words of Jin Shichu and Aunt Guan, and was very pleased to see that she spoke eloquently when comforting Aunt Guan. He patted her on the shoulder and said, "Chu'er, you really lived up to your mother's expectations. , you have grown into a benevolent and kind-hearted person, and it is good that you can treat Aunt Guan and Chen Shu kindly."
"Of course, after all, I have inherited the excellent qualities of you and my mother!" Jin Shichu boasted without blushing, but she was thinking in her heart that she was not a kind-hearted person, she was just reciprocating love. Mammy and Chen Shu both treated her sincerely, so she would naturally treat them sincerely.
After hearing what his daughter said, Jin Xiangrong burst into laughter, and then agreed to her proposal and asked Chen Shu to find Ren Yazi and bring someone to choose for him.
"My dear daughter, why do you suddenly want to add servants to the family? In addition to the reason you just mentioned that you want Chen Shu and Aunt Guan to relax..." Jin Xiangrong's eyes flashed, and when Aunt Guan left, After that, I asked about Jin Shichu.
Jin Shichu originally wanted to trick him and not tell him what happened last night, but then he thought about it, it would be better to let him know something in his heart, otherwise he would be too unprepared. If the thief had a bad start last night, he would Are you staring at your own home and trying to find your place again?
So she decided to confess: "Dad, there was a thief at our house last night."
"What did you say?" Jin Xiangrong opened his eyes in shock and asked in disbelief.
"There was a thief in our house last night. Fortunately, I found out and the thief was so frightened that he ran away." Jin Shichu said very calmly.
Only then did Jin Xiangrong realize that he had heard correctly. He was so frightened that he quickly checked Jin Shichu's whole body. He breathed a sigh of relief until he found no traces of injury on her body, and then lectured her with a straight face: "Encountered Why didn't you wake us up when he was a thief? How dare you deal with him alone? I think you are so brave that you learned some three-legged cat kung fu and dared to confront the thief! You should be lucky that the thief is a coward , otherwise if you meet a ruthless person and attack you directly, it will be too late for you to regret!"
Jin Shichu was so embarrassed by his training, but it was not because she was ashamed to face the thief alone, but because she was really not as good at martial arts as others, otherwise she would not have let the thief escape, and she could not even see him None of them caught up.
Therefore, she plausibly retorted to her father: "Dad, you have just recovered from a serious illness. Uncle Chen and Aunt Guan are both old. If I call someone, in case I scare you, or you rush over and fall in a hurry. What should I do if I get caught? Or maybe I get caught by thieves and used as a hostage to threaten me. Wouldn’t this be adding to the chaos? So it’s better for me, a strong young man, to get involved.”
"You, you are talking nonsense! You talk about us as useless and unhelpful, but you dare to call yourself strong? How do you have the nerve to use this word on yourself? It's really, really messy!" Jin Xiangrong was stunned. Shichu laughed angrily at his words.
"Dad, what I told is the truth. The truth does not sound good, but you can't deny that I am right? And, don't worry, I have a sense of discretion in my heart. Even if I can't catch the thief, I can't. If you can protect yourself, my recent martial arts training is not in vain." Jin Shichu quickly treated him with reason and emotion.
"What sense of propriety do you have? I think you are just bold, impulsive and reckless!" Jin Xiangrong was still angry and scolded her.
