After the eldest sister of the wronged family was reborn, she created a whole family of ungrateful p

Shen Ning pulled his cloak closer, leaned back in his chair and looked into the distance.

After a moment's silence, he looked down at the garden: "Can you do carpentry?"

Mo Lin nodded: "Yes."

Although he only knows a little, he will definitely do it as long as she needs it.

Shen Ning pointed to a bare corner of the garden and said, "There used to be a swing there, but I took it down two years ago. Please help me make one."

Mo Lin: "Okay."

She said, and he agreed.

Shen Ning looked at him twice more, thought about something, and then smiled again: "Mo Lin, you have to become more powerful, I can't do without you by my side."

Mo Lin's expression immediately became extremely serious: "I won't let the young lady down."

Shen Ning patted him on the shoulder, without saying a word, but with trust in entrusting him with an important task.

Shen Ning looked at him as if he wanted to swear to be loyal, and suddenly he understood Qin Zhuo's feelings.

She did not use her kindness to blackmail and suppress Mo Lin, but he always felt that he had received too much favor from her and wished he could repay her with his life.

The same is true for her towards Qin Zhuo.

The Shen family is a group of ungrateful people. She has been demanded and resented all her life. They always think that she is not good enough and not perfect enough, as if she was born to give everything for them without any regrets and deserved to die.

Although she hated it, deep down she was used to giving and had forgotten how to accept other people's kindness to her.

Qin Zhuo is special to her and is willing to help her and save her life. If it really comes to it, even if Qin Zhuo holds a sword to kill her now, she may not resist.

The favor is so great that I am unable to repay it and have no way to repay it. That feeling is very uncomfortable.

If Qin Zhuo wanted her body, she might hesitate, but she would definitely agree.

It was just a simple innocence. Would a dead person care about this? Besides, Qin Zhuo was so handsome and treated her so well, so she would not suffer any loss.

But if Qin Zhuo wanted her to like him, then everything she said was wrong.

Mutual affection should not be based on the exchange of chips. One person does a favor and the other repays the favor. This is not love.

She had never encountered it, so she didn't understand. Although Qin Zhuo didn't force her, he didn't allow her to escape and insisted that she face his thoughts.

So, maybe he felt the same way as she did, and had some plans when he lent a helping hand, but he didn't really expect to use this favor to control anyone.

What he wants is not the kind of sacrificial emotion where only gratitude can be seen in the eyes.

He wanted her to like him as a person, not out of any favor.

----------

Shen Ning's actions have always been the focus of everyone's attention, and several people who were chatting looked over at the same time.

Lumei bumped Zi Yan's shoulder with an exaggerated expression and said silently: What's going on?

Could it be that her master’s house had been robbed?

The eldest lady doesn’t like her master, but likes this Mo Lin?

Although there is nothing worthy of her master, this Mo Lin is not worthy of the eldest lady, right?

And if the young lady doesn't stay with the master, what will happen to her and Zi Yan in the future? Will the young lady still support them?

If they defected to the Shen family, their master wouldn't hunt them down, right?

Ziyan

------Under Modification---

Shen Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and had to accept the feeding.

"I don't want you to train me into a lazy good-for-nothing. After I finish writing this, I want you to be my master and teach me some skills."

Lu Mei: "Why would Miss learn those crooked ways of ours?"

Shen Ning: ...Where can someone say that he or she is a crooked person?

"After much thought, I decided to open up new trade routes and continue my business of making money. I may have to travel around with a caravan in the future, so I want to learn some skills to protect myself. However, it may be too late for me to learn martial arts at my age, so I will learn some more unexpected methods."

"Making money and traveling the world?" Lu Mei held her hand, her eyes bright, "Miss, take me and Zi Yan with you. We will protect you and sacrifice our lives for you."

Shen Ning was speechless: "Have you forgotten who your master is?"

Lu Mei blinked ambiguously: "That's just a matter of a word from the young lady. Being loyal to the master is the same as being loyal to the mistress."

Shen Ning couldn't bear to hear this: "Don't talk nonsense."

What mistress? There is nothing about her at all.

Shen Ning was a studious student. Lumei and Zi Yan, with their dual charm of money and personality, naturally tried their best to teach him. Even if Shen Ning only learned the basics, they would praise him highly, which made Shen Ning always glare at them.

There had just been a funeral at home, so the New Year was naturally a little quiet. Shen Ning didn't create any New Year atmosphere. He gave everyone double their monthly salary and added New Year bonus silver. Those who could go home went home for the New Year, and those who couldn't go back had a New Year's Eve dinner together at home.

Although it was simpler than previous years and less lively, they understood that the host had to deal with such a thing, and there was money to be made, so no one would be unhappy.

Of course, it was only the Shen family that was deserted; the outside world was still as lively as ever.

Tonight, fireworks will be set off in all directions in the capital. The brilliant fireworks will soar into the sky, lighting up the night sky like day.

The Shen family's home was close to the imperial palace, and the fireworks from the palace could be seen clearly from the Shen family's attic.

Shen Ning asked someone to bring fruits and snacks upstairs. Everyone gathered around the stove, drinking tea and watching the fireworks, just the right time to celebrate the New Year together.

Liuying, Yuzhu, Mo Lin, Mo Xueer, Lumei, Zi Yan. There were not many people, but the age difference was not big. They sat together and talked about everything, and they didn't feel sleepy.

Shen Ning looked at Mo Lin who was sitting in a corner drinking tea quietly. This taciturn man has become less and less talkative recently.

There weren't many people around, but he always managed to make people ignore him.

Noticing her gaze, Mo Lin looked up, and his cold features seemed to soften a little: "Miss."

Shen Ning walked over and sat next to him. "Thank you for your hard work during this period. If you need anything, just let me know. I will not be stingy in agreeing to anything I can agree to."

Mo Lin pulled the corners of his lips, as if he wanted to laugh, but his cheeks were stiff. He hadn't laughed for a long time and he was not used to it, so he had to give up in the end.

"It's not hard. The young lady has given me enough."

It was she who saved his and Xueer's lives, gave them a place to live, and did not despise Xueer. She always doted on her and granted her every request.

He has received too much kindness from her and dare not ask for more. His only wish now is to become stronger and stay by her side all the time so that no one can hurt her again.

Shen Ning understood what he meant. A favor that was too great would always make people feel unworthy and unable to bear it. They would never be able to repay it, so how could they dare to ask for more?

Shen Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and had to accept the feeding.

"I don't want you to train me into a lazy good-for-nothing. After I finish writing this, I want you to be my master and teach me some skills."

Lu Mei: "Why would Miss learn those crooked ways of ours?"

Shen Ning: ...Where can someone say that he or she is a crooked person?
