Chapter 137 You dare to poison me?
If the goal is to contain the Lu family army, it's not necessarily the Yuan family that's indispensable.
The mine was not acquired through this method.
Jiang Mianmian is just too morally inclined. There's nothing we can do about it; she's kind-hearted.
Yuan Zhenghe didn't think so. He had already picked up his son and didn't want to have anything to do with this vixen anymore. He immediately shook his head and refused, "Don't even think about me going along with you!"
"see a visitor out!"
Jiang Mianmian remained calm and called out to Lin Hu, "Master Yuan, let me give you a piece of advice: a mine is an inanimate object, how can it be more important than life? Oh, by the way, I'll give you two days to remove all the managers and workers from the mine from the Yuan family. When I get there, if anyone dares to stop me or secretly cause me any trouble, your young master won't have any antidote."
"Antidote? You dare poison my son?"
Yuan Zhenghe's heart pounded. He really did think that way. It was just a few pages of paper. Once she actually went to the mine, no one would pay attention to her. What could she do? But this vixen seemed to be able to see through his thoughts and poisoned Pei'er in advance!
Upon hearing the word "poison," Yuan Pei felt a wave of discomfort. "Miss Mianmian, you must give me the antidote you've been using these past few days, right?"
"Here, once I've taken over the mine, I'll completely cure you of the poison. Take care!"
Jiang Mianmian threw him a bottle.
After Lin Hu finished speaking, he stepped forward and forcibly escorted the three members of the Yuan family out.
After leaving the manor, Yuan's secret guards drove a carriage, helped the two masters into the carriage, and the group sped away.
Inside the car, Yuan Pei took a pill and felt a little better from the pain and itching all over his body. "Father, do you think Jiang Mianmian is a demoness or a fairy?"
"She must be a witch to treat you like this!"
From the moment he learned that Zhuangzi had been transformed in such a bizarre way, to the moment he entered the place, the demoness was so decisive and cunning, that everything she did sent chills down his spine!
Yuan Zhenghe was seething with anger. "She still dares to spout nonsense, saying that her whole family died tragically. I don't believe it!"
"Father, I believe you."
Yuan Pei didn't want to believe it, but he had no choice but to, "Whether it's a celestial artifact or a demonic weapon, it's extremely..."
After much deliberation, he finally came up with a suitable word: "They are all very useful. I was initially attracted by the food she brought out and her actions, and wanted to recruit her to my side. I didn't expect to get myself into trouble. I have to admit that she is more capable than me, and what she said was not without reason."
A silence fell over the carriage.
Yuan Zhenghe knew perfectly well what his son meant. Of all the surrounding counties, only Fengshui County suffered almost no casualties in this rainstorm!
And all of this is because of that witch!
Perhaps she really isn't some kind of demoness, but rather a celestial being? But her methods are far too ruthless; she wiped out all her guards, and then poisoned and threatened them! But...
His gaze slowly moved, finally landing on Yuan Pei's missing calf. If he really was a disciple of the immortal, he wondered if he could heal these legs.
If that's really possible, I'll have to reconsider...
Watching the carriage drive away, Jiang Mianmian adjusted the screen. "Brother Lin Hu, are there enough cameras? We need to install them all around our estate. Once the guards arrive and they've finished building the houses around the area, we'll install them there too."
"That's enough. There's plenty left in the warehouse. I can handle everything; I'll just go and install it when the time comes."
"How is Brother Lin Bao?"
After asking, Jiang Mianmian was still a little worried, "I'd better go and check."
The two went to Lin Bao's house.
With meticulous care, Lin Bao recovered quickly.
She looked even better than before, but the burns on her body looked rather horrifying.
Jiang Mianmian changed his ointment and went back to the backyard to find Qingrui and Lin Xianghe.
As soon as you enter the courtyard, you can hear the hearty laughter of Qi Niang and Lin Xianghe.
"What are you talking about, so happy?"
Lin Xianghe noticed her slight unease. "Miss Mianmian."
"Sister Xianghe, don't be so polite, just call me Mianmian."
Jiang Mianmian blinked. "You're different from them. Didn't you read the contract carefully?"
"Contracts? Aren't they all from that stack?"
Lin Xianghe clearly remembered that the several copies looked similar, so she didn't look at them carefully.
Upon hearing this, he quickly took it out and flipped through it, then felt a little embarrassed, "Well, I can't read either."
Jiang Mianmian pointed it out to her, "Look, as long as you perform well this month, you will become the deputy steward of our estate. Except for the kitchen, you will be in charge of everything else. Your salary will be doubled, and you can also solve the problem of your children's schooling in the future."
"Study? Will children still be able to study in the future?"
Lin Xianghe was surprised. Extreme weather was coming soon, and tens of thousands of people outside couldn't even find food and shelter. Mianmian actually said that she still wanted the children to go to school.
Jiang Mianmian nodded, "But that will have to wait until the underground city is built."
If an underground city were built, outsiders could suddenly enter her paradise, which would allow her to start studying earlier.
However, she didn't intend to make such a promise without any certainty. She simply said, "Once the children are old enough to go to school, our own people will definitely be given priority. Even if there's no academy now, we have a library in our village, so you can let them go and have a look."
"Yes, if there's anything you don't understand, just ask them."
Upon hearing the word "library," Shisi Niang walked over and greeted Lin Xianghe with a smile.
Jiang Mianmian introduced Lin Xianghe, "This is Fourteenth Sister, the most learned person in our Lingxiao Tower. She's in charge of the library."
She had already told the women in the building that whether it was a guard or a maid, they were all hired on employment contracts, not indentures. The women had always treated Granny Niu and the Lin brothers very well, so they naturally didn't treat these new maids who came today as servants.
Moreover, they both knew about Lin Xianghe's situation, so they became even closer to her, and the two of them felt more comfortable with each other.
Even though the relationship is good, we still need to observe each other for a month before making a final decision on how they work and conduct themselves.
Therefore, her contract clearly stated that there would be a one-month "probationary period." If things didn't go well, she would have to return to the camp. If things went well, she might receive a raise and better treatment. During this period, if she did anything petty theft or other inappropriate things, she also had the right to dismiss her or even demand compensation.
With the fairy's presence as a deterrent, these old women dared not harbor any contempt.
While everyone was chatting, the newly arrived maid was already setting out the table, chairs, bowls, and chopsticks.
The table was a super large round table that Jiang Mianmian took from the warehouse. It could seat more than twenty people and had a heated turntable on it.
Lin Xianghe was surprised again, "Where did you buy this table from? It's so big! Oh, it can even rotate!"
