Country Maiden: Fields and Fortune-Chapter 591 - : Admiration (6 Updates)
Chapter 591 -591: Admiration (6 Updates)
Her husband complied with her every demand, and all kinds of delights were brought to cheer her up. Her mother-in-law and sisters-in-law were all accommodating, so why was she so foolish as to poison Chu Yunping?
She didn’t even know whether Chu Yunping was dead or not.
If Chu Yunping had died, she still needed to be cautious and keep a low profile—otherwise, the Chu Family would certainly not let her off the hook.
At the very least, she must hide herself well and not be found by the Chu Family.
Lu Yuyu was not unintelligent, comparatively speaking; she was both vicious and malicious, with a bit of cunning to boot.
After bathing, Xie Zhinuan didn’t read or practice swordplay, but instead she got dressed and had Chunyu summon the innkeeper.
Generally, innkeepers who managed to run establishments outside the city were somewhat connected and capable. Otherwise, with no chance to enter the city in the middle of the night, staying outside would be troublesome if they had run-ins with bandits or thieves.
The innkeeper was somewhat surprised to learn that Xie Zhinuan had asked for him.

He was originally the head of the secret agents of Number One Manor, and his inn, situated just outside the city, served partly as a means of gathering information.
Moreover, with the young master currently staying at the Xie Residence and Xie Zhinuan having saved him, he was deeply grateful for her significant benevolence.
Now that Xie Zhinuan had sent for him, he didn’t dare decline and he came over immediately.
“Miss Xie!”
“Please, have a seat!”
Once the tea was poured, Xie Zhinuan began to speak, “Since arriving at Gaocheng County, I haven’t gotten to know the county city well yet. Today, seeing you, Innkeeper, I felt like it’s fate. I was wondering if it would be possible for you to help me find two competent maids?”
“…”
The innkeeper looked puzzled.
Xie Zhinuan continued, “You’ve seen the people I brought back—they were all taken from a bandit lair. Those ten or so women were once ladies from good families who were kidnapped and violated by bandits, and those children can’t even tell who their fathers are. That’s why I’m thinking of finding two skilled maids to start with, preferably those who know Martial Arts, to offer them some guidance first!”
Even for work, there are protocols to follow.
Being clean and diligent are skills that need to be taught, especially for those little girls. Without careful guidance, their whole lives could be ruined.
“Do you plan to keep them then?” the innkeeper couldn’t help but ask.
“No, I have no intention of keeping them. There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world. I’m not a savior. I can offer them a steady job where they can make money. After expenses, they can even save some. Whether they want to stay single, get married, or start families in the future, having money is always beneficial,” Xie Zhinuan said earnestly.
The innkeeper thought for a moment before nodding in agreement. “Teaching a man to fish is better than giving him fish. Miss Xie’s magnanimity is indeed admirable!”
The innkeeper stood up and bowed to Xie Zhinuan. “My name is Meng, and I manage the secret agents of Number One Manor in Gaocheng County.”
“It’s you!” Xie Zhinuan exclaimed in surprise.
This was indeed unexpected.
When Qin Yu had left, he mentioned that Number One Manor had secret agents, but he only mentioned that they were within the city. She didn’t ask further, as she had no intention of making contact.
“A crafty hare has three burrows; it’s always good to prepare a back-up plan for oneself,” Manager Meng said with a light chuckle.
Xie Zhinuan smiled, indicating that she understood.
Manager Meng added, “Well, I do have two maids who are quite excellent. They possess a rudimentary knowledge of medicine and decent Martial Arts skills. Most importantly, they’re experienced and insightful. Let them go and help at Miss Xie’s place to start!”
“Good!”
Xie Zhinuan promptly agreed, and Manager Meng couldn’t help but inquire about Qin Mao’s illness. “With medicine and gradual recuperation, he’ll be a healthy and happy child in a year and a half!”
“Miss Xie’s great kindness will never be forgotten by Number One Manor!”
Xie Zhinuan shook her head. “It wasn’t my sole contribution. Young Master Qin is aware of this. If you really want to express your gratitude, if you have any fine liquor on hand, give me a jar to take back for his old man!”
