Chapter 741: New Boss (Part 2)_1
When purchasing the manor previously, it incidentally came with some Selling Covenants, but Yang Ruxin had not looked at them at the time. Just now, she scanned them with her mind in the space and realized that there were a total of four families registered as slaves, among them was the Wa Family.
If a servant is sent to the manor, it is generally because they have committed a mistake and are being punished.
If Mrs. Dong intends to spend her life with Wa Da, she must be registered in the household registration at Xiao Liu Village. Since the Wa Family is of slave status, the daughter-in-law will naturally also be a slave upon marriage. Waiting for Dong Hongmei to become a slave too would make it easier to control her.
The people, listening to Yang Ruxin’s explanation, harbored no suspicions and even thought the new landlord was easy to talk to. After all, when a new landlord arrives, everyone comes to greet them, and yet that person ran away in a panic. It was very impolite. If it were someone stricter, they might even drag her out for a beating.
Liu Genmao hurriedly agreed, promising to sort out the household registration issue in the next few days.
Next, Yang Ruxin instructed everyone to continue working as before. Even though the landlord had changed, the status quo was to be maintained. She also distributed one qian of silver to each household as a reward, a welcome gift from the new landlord.
The people all breathed a sigh of relief and were also delighted. The landlord was very generous.
Liu Genmao was also quite tactful. He quickly gathered a few baskets of produce from inside the manor to put on the carriage—just some wild fruits and bamboo shoots from the hilltop.
Yang Ruxin did not stand on ceremony, but she instructed Liu Genmao to gather some people to refurbish the main courtyard.
