 Chapter 193: Reward and Punishment

Ye Muyu is satisfied with the attitude of the couple.


Standing up, she led the two of them to the room in the east wing closest to the courtyard.


Originally used for hosting guests, the room was a bit cramped for accommodating a whole family. However, it would do for now.


"Zhang Shu, Hu Shi, from now on the two of you will live here."


"For the two children, I plan to put a single bed in the room with Ziluo and Xiao Jin. Zhang Cong will be responsible for accompanying Xiao Jin, while Nenya will be with Ziluo."


"The house is not large but there won't be much for you to do. As long as you have loyalty to my Chu family, you will not be treated unfairly in the future."


"However, if you harbor any ill intentions and I find out, don't blame me for using your children to control you. I don't like people who are two-faced and I only want loyal individuals." Ye Muyu combined kindness with authority.


In her previous life, her family had servants. Although it wasn't as formalized as selling themselves, the methods of managing servants were somewhat similar to managing members of a company.


However, the rules between masters and servants in Da Chu were even more stringent. Once someone became a servant, betraying the master, even if they were killed on the spot, the government would turn a blind eye.


It could be seen that in this era, it was a purely feudal society.


Ye Muyu had never thought of changing it. With her alone, trying to change things was as unrealistic as dreaming. Therefore, she chose to adapt. Only by adapting to the rules of this era could she have the ability to protect more people.


After reading the laws of Da Chu, Ye Muyu already had a lot of understanding of Da Chu.


At this moment, talking to Zhang Shu and Hu Shi, although her words were gentle, the two felt the weight of her authority realizing that the Chu family was different from the families they had served before.


The more stringent the rules in a household the more they valued the loyalty of their servants.


Without any hesitation, Zhang Shu and Hu Shi both knelt down and the two children followed suit with a crisp sound.


"Lady, rest assured, we will never betray our master."


Seeing the two children also kneeling down, Ye Muyu frowned slightly. However, even if she was not used to it, she did not refuse. Because these two children would follow Ziluo and Xiao Jin in the future and she couldn't afford any negligence.


"You may rise."


"Hu Shi, come with me to the kitchen first."


"Zhang Shu, please wait for a moment. I will call Chu Heng to arrange things for you."


"As for Zhang Cong, you will follow your father for now, Nenya, you come with me."


Having finished giving instructions, Ye Muyu turned and headed towards the kitchen with Hu Shi, saying to Chu Liushi, "Mother, this is Hu Shi. The man outside is called Zhang Shu, her husband."


"Hu Shi, you can help me with the fire in the kitchen." Chu Liushi said at the same time taking a few glances at Hu Shi to confirm that her hands had calluses and that she was used to doing labor. Only then did she feel relieved.


Although Hu Shi looked ordinary, with dark skin, she looked like she had worked in the fields. There was no temptation for the Third Son. Although the ages of the two children indicated that Hu Shi was not very old, Chu Liushi couldn't help but worry.


She was scared by Tang Rou's matter.


Even if her son became a scholar, she had never thought of letting him take concubines. That was a habit of big families or something that would only be done by big families that were gradually declining and had unscrupulous descendants.


It had to be said that Chu Liushi had an innate aversion to concubines and even more so because of some rumors, she had developed a great misunderstanding.


Hu Shi didn't move but looked at Ye Muyu.


This surprised Ye Muyu a bit. Although she hoped that the family's servants would be loyal, she had never truly raised servants. Even the servants from her previous life were treated as equals.
