Her home and family had become her hope.
Their parents had passed away due to shock, leaving the four of them behind. However, in a single day, they had become prisoners who would never have freedom.
As prisoners, even if they were siblings, they could not have any attachment, they could not be family members who supported each other, and they could only be a servant of low status.
Even though the whole Wu family had been obtained by Lin Yuelan, this person still called them servants and did not treat them as ordinary people.
But now, this person was saying that they could become family. This was such a surprise.
Lin yuelan nodded and said seriously, ” I’ve told you, what I want is loyalty. As long as you’re loyal, we’ll be family. In a few years, I’ll be able to restore your freedom. So, it’s up to you to make your own choice.”
Wu Jinmei, Wu Jinhua, and Wu Jinwu looked at each other in surprise, then bowed to Lin yuelan and said, “Greetings, master!”
This bow showed their sincere admiration and respect for Lin yuelan.
Wu Jinxia, who had been watching from the side, also smiled when he saw his siblings figure it out.
He also bowed in respect to Lin yuelan and said, ” Wu Jinxia greets the master!”
When the others saw their previous master, they bowed to Lin yuelan regardless of whether they were old, weak, sick, or disabled, they all stepped forward and bowed to Lin yuelan.
They used to be servants of the Wu family, so of course, they would follow their old masters to serve their new masters.
Lin yuelan nodded in satisfaction, ” not bad!”
Then, she said, ” since you’ve entered the Lin family, whatever your last names were in the past is in the past. So, you have to change your names. When you regain your freedom, you will regain your original family name and name!”
The previous servants of the Wu family didn’t have much to say. After all, they used to have a name. It was just that after entering the Wu residence, the Wu family had to rename them.
There wasn’t much of a difference.
But the four Wu siblings were different.
They were originally the young masters and daughters of a large family, and they were famous. Now that they were suddenly asked to change their names, this feeling was really mixed.
Wu Jinxia immediately turned to Lin yuelan and said seriously, ” I’ll change my name according to my master’s wishes!”
The other three looked at their big brother’s actions and immediately imitated him. As long as they didn’t betray her, many years later, they could also change back to the Wu surname and wouldn’t bring shame to their ancestors.
Lin yuelan nodded in satisfaction at their tactfulness and said, ” well, your names are now Lin Qingzhu, Lin Jinmei, Lin Jinlan, and Lin Shuangju!”
Lin Qingzhu was Wu Jinwu, Lin Jinmei was Wu Jinmei, Lin Jinlan was Wu Jinhua, and Lin Shuangju was, without a doubt, the Wu family’s eldest brother, Wu Jinxia.
When Wu Jinxia heard this, his expressionless face cracked, but he quickly accepted the new name.
“Thank you for the new names, master!” The four siblings said in unison.
“As for the others, other than changing their surname from Wu to Lin, their names will remain the same!” Lin yuelan pointed at the remaining nine people and said.
“This servant thanks master for your grace!” The other nine people said in unison.
Jiang Zhennan and Little Six, who was watching from the side, were simply dumbfounded.
They would never have thought that this was how Lin yuelan had subdued these people.
One must know that these people must have come from a family with some background. Since they were from a family with high status, they must have a lot of pride.
Although they were servants, it was difficult for them to change and accept that fact. Therefore, it would take some time for them to accept the fact that they had a master.
However, Lin yuelan had such an ability. With just a few words, she convinced them wholeheartedly and made them acknowledge her as the master.
Lin yuelan said, ” I’ll get someone to arrange accommodation for you in a while. As you can see, my house is not finished yet, and this small house can’t accommodate so many people. So, during this period, you can only squeeze in with the other workers. When the house is finished, you can move into the new house.”
After saying this, Lin yuelan glanced at the people in ragged clothes and said to Lin Jinmei, ” Jinmei, measure everyone’s clothes in a moment. Tomorrow, you and Jinlan will go to town and make three new sets of clothes for everyone at Linyue Pavilion. Remember, although the Lin family can’t wear the best, they can’t wear the worst either. You guys can decide what to wear!”
Lin yuelan’s words made the person who had just become a servant of the Lin family feel happy.
Was she going to make new clothes for them?
Three sets?
This was really …
Some people were secretly wiping their tears.
Since they were servants, it was really hard to find a master who would buy them three sets of clothes at once.
Lin Jinmei and Lin Jinlan looked at each other and immediately bowed to Lin yuelan in joy, ” yes, master! Thank you, master!”
Lin yuelan nodded slightly, then said to Little Six, ” brother Little Six, please take them to the workers’ dormitory to have a look. Separate the men and women!”
Little Six nodded and replied, ” yes, miss Lin. I’ll bring them over now!”
