26. Madam Xie

After Jun Hua left, Lin San still looks like a foolish girl. By her side, Lin Hong cannot watch it any longer and shake Lin San heavily.

“Sister! Wake up!” Lin Hong said angrily. He cannot see what Lin San had seen when Jun Min passed by her but he’s sure that his sister heart has been captured. The expression on Lin San face is truly a foolish one.

“Ah, Lin Hong? What is it?” Lin San snapped and smiled stiffly.

Lin Hong stared at her eyes. “Forget about that man. You can never get him.”

Lin Hong words are like a spear tearing up her heart. Lin San glared at Lin Hong. “Why are you saying things like that? You don’t know the future!”

After that, Lin San turned away angrily. Lin Hong stays rooted at his place. He doesn’t know the future? Of course he doesn’t know, but he knows that someone like Jun Min wouldn’t set his eyes on Lin San. They might be around the same age, but they lived in a completely different world.

Lin Hong just doesn’t want his sister to get hurt. He wants the best for her and a decent man for her too. Although the little girl doesn’t seem like she appreciates it at all, he will not let his sister experienced mishap. Lin Hong gaze is cold, but he didn’t do anything and returned to his room to continue his study.

On the other hand, Jun Hua had long gone to the servant office and selects some good servants. She picks a few who are still young and a few who are already middle age. Finishing it all, Jun Hua returned back to the Lin family residence by sneaking in.

The protections around Lin family residence are terribly poor and she could easily sneak in. The guard won’t even notice anything wrong while she walks around leisurely.

Soon Jun Hua arrived at her quarter. Xia and Yamin have already finished moving all of her things. They worked in high speed, but careful. It is only when she appeared before them that they noticed her.

“Miss! You startled me,” Xia exclaimed.

“Good work. I will change my clothes and appearance first. Has Chun Maora appeared with the contract girl?”

“Not yet Miss.”

Jun Hua nodded and goes into her room. After cleaning up her makeup and face mask, she asks Xia to do her hair and clothes. It took her some time and by the time she has finished, she noticed that a steward has come with two girls behind him. One of them is a middle age woman and the other is that 12 years old girl.

“Miss, the girl mother insists that she has to work beside her daughter so this lowly one could only bring them here.”

The steward feels highly troubled since he had heard that it is Jun Min who asks for the girl to serve his sister. With the news about Jun Min could be found easily in the capital, many people has long known about him. They’re afraid to get into his bad side, so the steward could only bring them to Jun Hua and let the girl resolve it.

Jun Hua looks towards the middle age woman. She’s hugging her daughter tightly and refuses to let her daughter go. The little girl is clearly confused, but she still stays silent in her mother arms.

“It’s fine. Just give me their contract.”

The steward sighed in relief and handed the contract to her. In any case, the middle age woman is not really useful so it’s fine to let her be the girl servant. Finishing his duty, the steward walked away in relief.

Jun Hua looks towards the two girls. “Please look up, Madam Xie.”

The middle age woman raise her head to look at Jun Hua. In that instant, her eyes started to get wet and tears fall from them. Her daughter is startled, but she doesn’t understand why her mother suddenly cried.

“Young Miss Hua, is that you? You’re alive.”

“Yes, I’m fine, Madam Xie. How are you?” Jun Hua smiled warmly. She recognizes her daughter since they have similar features. Madam Xie was one of the few servants’ girls her mother used to have. Jun Hua hadn’t heard from them for a long time and she’s truly surprised to see one of them here.

“I’m fine. I would never expect that you can survive Miss. All those year, it must be hard on you.”

Jun Hua waited until Madam Xie calmed down. Madam Xie was one of her mother loyal servant but she’s sent away to get married. But this incident has turned into a blessing because Madam Xie could avoid that disaster.

“Miss Hua, do you still remember this place? This is the place where your mother used to stay.”

Jun Hua shakes her head. She doesn’t remember at all. When she left this residence, she was only a four years old girl and there are things she cannot remember. There are only a few memories she has about the Lin family residence.

Madam Xie nodded in sadness. “It’s expected that a young girl cannot remember things fully but I never thought that you would return here, Miss.”

“Neither do I.”

Jun Hua doesn’t have many pleasant memories of this place. The things she remembers the most is when she was four years old, her mother coming to her while crying saying that she’s sorry. The next day, they had left the residence. That was the incident that sealed her fate up forever.

Madam Xie wiped her tears. “I may not have been when your mother was chased out, but I was here when that despicable woman force her to become a concubine.”

Jun Hua eyes flashed with interest. She knows that to promote a woman from concubine to be a legal wife, the husband must have paid a heavy price if they already have a main wife. Then to make his wife to be the concubine instead, she’s sure that Lin Tang cannot go unscathed.

“What happened? If I’m not wrong, there are large sums of money you need to pay and a heavy beating, right?”

Madam Xie nodded. “Originally, Lin Tang also didn’t want to do it, but Chun Maora brother took his place in beating thus allowed Lin Tang to agree. As for the money, the Lin family doesn’t lack of money, so they could send the money easily.”

“Lin Tang agreed just like that?” Jun Hua eyebrows rose.

“No, he only agreed after Chun Maora gave birth to the twins.”
