Chapter 147 She was indeed influenced by the chat box in the bullet comments.
As dusk approaches—
Anjia Village —
The news that Xia Mo and Brother Xia had returned, riding into the village on horseback, had already caused a sensation throughout the village!
However, it was too late, and although the people of Anjia Village were curious, they knew it was not a good time to go to the Xia family to ask. So they suppressed their curiosity and planned to go to the Xia family to ask early the next morning.
Xia Family —
In the courtyard—
Xia's father and mother smiled when they saw Xia Mo and his older brother.
Although Xia Mofuyin said that they would be riding horses back this time, which would take longer, she still couldn't help but worry.
"Father has prepared a stable. Let the horses stay in the stable for a few nights. Tomorrow morning, I will find Village Chief Gao to build the stable," Xia's father said with a smile.
Now that we need to deliver goods to our homes, horses are essential.
The horse was uneasy and unfamiliar with its new home, snorting several times. Its round eyes would occasionally glance at Xia Mo and Brother Xia, as if it only recognized these two people. Only when these two were there did it feel a little more at ease.
The gate to the Xia family compound was closed.
At the end of summer, he took out the carriage from his soul space.
She took out the carriage, and her eyes met those of two old women who came out of the house.
The two old women, leaning against the door frame, doubted their eyes, squeezed them shut, and then opened them to look at the carriage and Xia Mo. They both gasped in shock.
They weren't seeing things; they really did see Xia Mo pull out a carriage out of thin air!
"You two are awake," Xia Mo said to the two elderly women, reminding her family.
Upon hearing that their daughter's abilities had been witnessed by outsiders, the Xia family tensed up and turned around to look at the two elderly women.
The two elderly women: "..."
"Thank you for saving my life."
The two old women were stunned for a moment, then reacted and knelt down firmly in front of Xia Mo with a "bang".
"Do you have somewhere to go?" Xia Mo asked deliberately.
She had to go through the motions in front of her family.
“I was sold off by my master, and my family… is long gone. Only this old woman is left alive,” said the old woman kneeling on the left.
The old woman kneeling on the right said, "I was also sold by my master. My master... wrongly accused me of adultery, but I'm so old. Even if the master is old, he couldn't possibly... want me, could he?!"
Both of them had become senior members of their original family and were deeply trusted by the matriarch. However, they wanted to leave because of an order from Huangfu Qian. But the family refused, and after failing to leave ten times in a row, they had no choice but to resort to a last resort, which ruined their reputation.
Summer's end, she raised an eyebrow.
The word "wronged" struck a chord with Xia's father and mother.
"Don't worry, we're not kicking you out."
“Father and Mother, I felt sorry for them, so I bought them from the baby shop,” Xia Mo added.
Xia's father and mother turned their heads at the same time, unable to bear to scold their daughter, and nodded helplessly.
You should have told us sooner that you bought Er! They thought she was someone a passerby had picked up and rescued on the side! They were worried that it might expose their daughter's special abilities.
“They’ll have to stay with us from now on,” Xia Mo added.
"Sure, it's no problem for them to stay. It's just two more mouths to feed, we can still afford to feed them," Xia's mother agreed.
"What are your names? How should we address you from now on?" Xia's mother asked politely, not treating the two of them like servants at all.
“My surname is Lü, and my given name is Cha. In my original family home, I was called Aunt Cha,” Aunt Cha introduced herself.
Lü Cha...
Xia Mo turned to look at another person.
“My surname is Bai, and my given name is Lian, the same as Lianhua. My name is Bai Lian. In my previous home, I was called Aunt Lian,” Aunt Lian said.
White lotus...
Summer's End: "..."
The names Lü Cha and Bai Lian were originally fine.
Can……
The comments section says that "green tea" is a derogatory term used to describe someone who says caring things and seems gentle and understanding, but actually has ulterior motives, acts one way in public and another in private, and likes to flirt with others.
The comments section says that "white lotus" is good at pretending, saying one thing and meaning another, secretly scheming, and unfaithful in love, which is also a derogatory term.
Once the names of Aunt Tea and Aunt Lotus were mentioned, Xia Mo couldn't help but think of them.
She was indeed influenced by the chat box in the live chat.
"From now on, Aunt Cha and Aunt Lian, you two are part of our family," Xia's mother said with a smile.
"Thank you," Aunt Cha and Aunt Lian said in unison, then looked at Xia Mo.
They can pledge allegiance, but there are prerequisites before they can pledge allegiance.
"Catch!" Xia Moyi wanted to test his skills, so he threw two small pills out as if they were hidden weapons.
She controlled the force.
Aunt Cha and Aunt Lian were startled, but they quickly reached out and took it, only to find it was a small, off-white pill, which puzzled them.
"Eat up," Xia Mo urged with a smile.
Aunt Cha and Aunt Lian ate it without any hesitation.
The medicine took effect as soon as it entered their throats, and in less than half a quarter of an hour, the fatigue and lifelessness on Aunt Cha and Aunt Lian disappeared.
Aunt Cha and Aunt Lian resolutely kowtowed three times to Xia Mo, signifying their acceptance of her as their master.
Xia's mother was startled.
"What are you doing? Even if you're thanking me, you don't need to... Look, your head is all scraped, aren't you dizzy?" Xia's mother was very worried.
"From now on, we are your people, Master! If you command us to live, we will live; if you command us to die, we will die!" Aunt Tea and Aunt Lotus swore in unison.
Xia's mother was taken aback. She wanted to help the two of them up, but then felt something was off, so she looked at Xia Mo instead.
"Alright, let's see how you perform," Xia Mo said sweetly.
"Yes!"
Aunt Tea and Aunt Lotus responded in unison once again.
"The medicine I gave you will be effective after seven doses, and you can only take it once every seven days," Xia Mo said, gesturing for the two of them to go and rest.
Aunt Cha and Aunt Lian got up from the ground and surrounded Xia's mother.
"Madam, what shall we do?"
Both of them had lived in large houses before, so they could tell at a glance who was in charge of the household.
Xia's mother: "..."
"The title 'Madam' is so strange. From now on, please just call me Xia Mu Shi or Xia Shi," Xia's mother said helplessly.
“The term ‘mistress’ means the master’s mother. If you don’t like it, we’ll change it. But calling you Xia Mu Shi is also inappropriate. Can we call you Mrs. Xia?” Aunt Hua asked.
When Mrs. Xia heard the title "Mrs. Xia," she was amused.
"No way, I'm just a country woman. Calling me 'Madam' is much stranger than calling me 'Mistress'," Xia's mother said with a chuckle.
Xia's mother and Aunt Cha discussed the issue of how to address each other.
On the other side—
"Little sister, is the food you give them the same as the food you give us?" Brother Xia asked in a low voice.
“Yes, Master gave me the prescription for this medicine. Once I run out, I can refine it myself,” Xia Mo replied in a low voice, feigning mystery.
In fact, only Brother Xia heard her say this.
Brother Xia nodded and asked, "Little sister, before you went home, did you also give the horse a health-strengthening pill?"
Xia Mo was surprised and nodded: "Big brother, I put the apple in the horse's food and no one else noticed. How did you find out?"
Brother Xia gave Xia Mo a loving look, then kept her in suspense and refused to say anything.
The Xia family was not affected by the addition of two more people.
Aunt Tea and Aunt Lotus naturally blended in.
When Xia's father and the others were busy, having two strong men to help them with the work saved them a lot of effort!
The two new people were not told to the villagers that they were purchased servants, but rather that they were distant relatives who had come to seek refuge, which would allow them to integrate into the village more quickly.
