Chu Jieyi looked at Lin Ruyi with no expression on her face. They hadn't mentioned this matter recently, so they couldn't guess her inner thoughts for a while.

"Wait for them to get used to it for two days." Chu Jieyi said tentatively.

Lin Ruyi nodded lightly, and then said, "What are you going to tell the children?"

Seeing that there are still 28 days to go before the Chinese New Year, the children will definitely be suspicious of him going on a long trip this time.

"I just said that I have to go out for something. I used to go hunting in the mountains, so they shouldn't think too much about it," Chu Jieyi said.

Lin Ruyi frowned, Chu Jieyi really underestimated her three children.

Although Chu Zixuan didn't talk much, he was thoughtful. Now that he was in school again, he knew a lot, so naturally he wasn't so easy to deceive.

Not to mention Chu An'an, she is smart and thoughtful, not like a child at all.

As for Chu Zijun's words, he knows how to play now just by looking at it, but he is actually a lot of careful thinking.

"You used to go hunting and came back in only three to five days, so this time you went for a few months, do you think they are fools? Will they not guess?" Lin Ruyi asked in a deep voice.

Chu Jieyi naturally thought that the children would be suspicious, and he thought that with Lin Ruyi around, she could help him cover up a thing or two.

"The lady, can you help me cover it up?" Chu Jieyi asked with a guilty conscience.

"Okay, I'll just say that you don't want us anymore and ran away with the wild woman." Lin Ruyi crossed her arms and looked at Chu Jieyi provocatively.

Chu Jieyi's mouth twitched, feeling helpless.

"Miss, you know that I am not that kind of person. I just go to do business. I promise to come back as soon as I finish, and there will never be another woman." Chu Jieyi knew that Lin Ruyi was deliberately testing him, reminding him not to Flirtatious outside.

Lin Ruyi thought for a while, and then said, "Understood, then tell me about the situation of the two maidservants."

Chu Jieyi pulled Lin Ruyi onto his lap and sat down, wrapping one hand around her waist and holding her cold little hand with the other.

"The Chu family is all loyal. My father used to be a general, and my father also brought out the Chu family army. My mother is also the daughter of a general. After having me, and the emperor fearing my father, he let us mother and son live together in the capital. Live, my mother selected a group of servants, Qiuying and Chunlu were among them, and taught them skills.

Later my father died in battle, and my mother went with him.I am the only one left in the Chu family, and I have been at the border for a long time, rarely returning to the capital.After I disappeared, they have been looking for me in secret, and they got in touch a few days ago, and I asked them to come here to protect you. "Chu Jieyi briefly talked about the origins of those two people and some things about the Chu family.

Lin Ruyi thought for a while, and then asked in a low voice: "You haven't been missing for several years, are you sure they are still the original Chu family? Will they not be bought?"

"No, the members of the Chu family are very loyal, and they will never do anything to sell their owners for glory. They were brought out by my mother, and they will never betray the Chu family." Chu Jieyi said very firmly.

Seeing how convinced Chu Jieyi was, Lin Ruyi couldn't say anything more.

As for those two people, she had to test again to make sure they were really okay before she dared to stay by her side.

"Then when are you going to leave?" Lin Ruyi asked.

"It should be three days later." Chu Jieyi said.

Lin Ruyi nodded, since she must go, let's go as soon as possible.

"Okay, I get it." She said with a calm expression, but her heart was full of waves, she had a lot to say, but she didn't know what to say.

After the two finished talking, Lin Ruyi asked Chu Jieyi to accompany the children, while she called Qiuying and Chunlu in, intending to ask questions.

After the two entered the room, they stood there in a well-behaved manner, with their heads slightly lowered, looking like a servant.

"Do you need me to introduce myself?" Lin Ruyi said slowly.

The two shook their heads immediately. They just need to know that the person in front of them is their master, and they don't need to know anything else that they shouldn't know.

Lin Ruyi continued: "This is just a small town, there are not so many things to do, just do your own thing well every day. Do you know how to do housework?"

"If you go back to Ma'am, the servants will cook, and the maids will serve the master." Chunlu stepped forward and said.

"If you go back to Madam, the servants will chop firewood, carry water, and feed the horses." Qiuying said.

Lin Ruyi nodded in satisfaction. Fortunately, she doesn't just know how to fight and kill.

"Then Chunlu will help cook and clean up the house in the future, and Qiuying will carry water and do other work." Lin Ruyi instructed the two of them.

"Yes."

"Yes."

The two immediately agreed, without showing any dissatisfaction.

After Lin Ruyi finished speaking, she let the two of them go out, and she also planned to get some food.

Before he woke up, he was pulled up by Chu An'an to 'catch rape', and he hasn't washed and eaten yet, so he's a little hungry.

When she came out of the study and went to the kitchen, she saw Tweety sitting behind the stove wiping tears. When she saw her coming, she immediately wiped away the tears with her sleeve.

"Ma'am, you're awake. There is hot water in the pot. I'll pour it out for you. You can wash up first." Tweety spoke with a tear in her voice.

Lin Ruyi took two steps forward and asked, "Tui'er, what's wrong with you? Did someone bully you?"

Tweety shook her head immediately, trying hard not to cry, but the tears just fell down.

"Ma'am, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to cry, I just, just... I'm too scared." Tweety said with a sob while wiping away her tears.

"What are you afraid of?" Lin Ruyi asked with a bewildered expression, becoming more and more confused as she listened.

"Just now I saw you and the master brought two people back, are they bought slaves? Madam, is it because I did something wrong, are you dissatisfied and want to drive me away?" Cui'er cried While speaking, she looked at Lin Ruyi with fear in her eyes.

Lin Ruyi knew what Tweety was afraid of, so it was because of this.

"Who said I'm going to drive you away? It's nothing, don't think about it." Lin Ruyi said immediately.

Tweety stopped crying when she heard that she would not be driven away, she was really afraid that Lin Ruyi would drive her away.

Now that the weather is so cold, her house has been taken over. If she is driven out again, she will really be homeless and will freeze to death sooner or later.

"Madam, are you really not driving me away? Can I continue to work at home?" Tweety looked at Lin Ruyi expectantly and asked.

Lin Ruyi nodded her head twice, then smiled and said to Tweety: "What are you thinking about, you little head, just keep working hard, and there is no shortage of food for you at home, don't worry, as long as you Do things faithfully and don't betray me, I won't drive you away."

"No, absolutely not, Tweety will follow Madam for the rest of her life, and she will never do anything wrong to Madam." Tweety immediately promised.

Lin Ruyi nodded, she was more at ease with Tweety, after all, she had been with her for so long and knew everything, so she was much more at ease than the two who just arrived.

She had just finished washing, and found that her hair was a little untied. She was pulled away by Chu An'an in the morning, so she tied it casually, and now it is a little loose.

"Which of you knows how to comb your hair?" Lin Ruyi looked at Chunlu and Qiuying who were waiting aside.

"If you go back to Madam, the servants will." Chunlu stepped forward and said.

"Then you go in and comb my hair." Lin Ruyi said.

"Yes." Chun Lu immediately followed her into the room with her head down.

Lin Ruyi sat next to the dressing table, handed the comb to Chunlu, and asked her to comb her hair.

Chunlu saw that she was a maid who had served a rich family. She moved very carefully and combed her hair very lightly, for fear of hurting Lin Ruyi.

"Where did you come here?" Lin Ruyi asked.

"Returning to Madam, did the servants come from the capital?" Chunlu replied respectfully.

"Oh, I haven't been to the capital city yet. I grew up in the country since I was a child. My parents both farmed for a living. I haven't seen anything in the world. Miss Chunlu won't laugh at me, right?" Lin Ruyi looked at Chun in the bronze mirror. Lu asked.
