Chapter 60: Acknowledging the Lord

After a while, two tough-looking children came to the main room. First they kowtowed to Old Master Ding, then to Ding Huixin, and then to Ding Rui.

The difference between kowtowing to Ding Rui is different from that of Mr. Ding and Ding Huixin.

Old Master Ding and Ding Huixin both kowtowed three times respectively. But when it came to Ding Rui, they kowtowed three times and then three times again. This was the ceremony for the emperor to recognize his master. Both children had serious expressions.

Ding Rui accepted these nine knocks, which means that Ding Dong and Ding Xi will be Ding Rui's slaves from now on. Ding Rui has the right to decide their life and death. They also only recognize Ding Rui as their master, and only listen to him and his orders, and no one else says

They all refused to listen.

Later, Ding Zhong and Ding Zhong's wife came to visit Ding Rui and told them to listen to Ding Rui's words and so on.

Because Ding Guoer already recognized Ding Huixin as her master, she only knelt down to Ding Rui and did not need to kowtow. Ding Rui took this opportunity to take a good look at the family of five.

Ding Zhong didn't look like a housekeeper, but like a scholar. He looked like a weak man who couldn't carry his shoulders or lift his hands. But Ding Zhong's wife looked big and round, tall and powerful. He couldn't help but chuckle to himself, this Ding Zhong

Was he robbed by his wife?

People say that the eyes are the windows to the soul, and Ding Zhong's eyes are always shrewd. Ding Rui looked at Ding Zhong a few more times and said to himself: No wonder he was chosen as the housekeeper.

Ding Dong and Ding Xi look more like Ding Zhong's wife. Fortunately, Ding Guoer looks like Ding Zhong. The little girl has pretty features and looks more intelligent than her two brothers.

After the acknowledgment was over, Dingzhu gave Ding Dong and Ding Xi's body contract to Ding Rui. Ding Rui looked at Dingzhu and heard that Dingzhu had been with the old man all his life, and half of the Ding family could not do without his contribution.

Ding Rui couldn't help but think to himself, should he also find someone who would advise him like this?

Now he has asked Niu Er and Li Si to do many things, but their abilities are limited after all. Now that they have more and more things to do, the manpower is becoming increasingly tight.

Talent! Talent! I need a lot of talent! This matter still needs to be carefully considered.

Ding Huixin was just about to take Ding Rui back, and the two of them had a heart-to-heart talk. Then they heard from Dingzhu that lunch was ready, and asked whether they should eat in the main room or in the dining room.

Without waiting for Mr. Ding to answer, Ding Rui told him that he had brought two people back, and they must prepare their meals properly.

Reminder: This is natural.

Old Master Ding also wanted to see the person Ding Rui chose, so he ordered them to have dinner in the dining room. By the way, he brought the two of them over so that he could have a good look.

When they arrived at the dining room, Mr. Ding met Niu Er and Li Si in the side hall.

The dining room of the Ding family is larger than that of the Gao family. There are ten tables in it, which shows how large the population of the Ding family is!

There is a side hall on the left side of the dining room, which is specially used for resting. The side hall is not very big, with two main seats and twelve chairs on the left and right sides. All mahogany furniture shows the strong financial resources of the Ding family.

After the guests of honor were seated, Niu Er and Li Si paid homage to Mr. Ding.

Mr. Ding has been traveling all over the country for fifty or sixty years and has met countless people. His criteria for employing people are loyalty first and ability second.

Li Siwu is big and rough, and he is from Orion at first glance. Niu Er is smart, and the way they treat Ding Rui can be described as "submissive". Mr. Ding has also heard some stories about the two of them. Both of them are good, and treat Ding Rui well.

Rui is very loyal.

Old Master Ding nodded and ordered Dingzhu to give the two of them a gift of one tael of silver each. The largest reward the Ding family could give to a servant was only one tael of silver, which showed that Old Master Ding recognized the two of them.

Mr. Ding's reward is not only recognition of the two of them, but also recognition of Ding Rui's ability to employ people.

Both of them waved their hands and refused to accept it. After several times of shirk, they looked at Ding Rui, who nodded, and then they accepted it. Mr. Ding secretly praised Ding Rui for his discipline of his servants.

At this time, Ding Huixin changed into another dress and came out. Previously in the Gao family, although Ding Huixin was the second wife, she was oppressed by the Yao family, so she had always been cautious in dressing, mostly wearing coarse cloth.

Now back to the Ding family, Mr. Ding almost moved the Ding family's cloth shop in Yongxiu Mansion to Ding Huixin. Ding Huixin was wearing a red silk and cotton brocade cloth, which was soft, breathable and very comfortable to wear.

Li Si glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, and his heart immediately started beating like "dong dong~".

After not seeing her for half a year, the acne marks on Ding Huixin’s face have faded a lot.

Mr. Ding invited many famous doctors, and even spent a lot of money to buy the best "No Trace Cream". From this, it can be seen that after Ding Huixin and Gao Xianwei separated, their status in the Ding family became more noble. Mr. Ding took care of his shortcomings and would never allow it.

Anyone who slanders or slanders Ding Huixin.

Ding Huixin was already beautiful, and with the six months of conditioning, she became more charming. The red brocade dress made her even more dazzling.

Niu Er and Li Si saluted Ding Huixin. Ding Huixin said enthusiastically:

"My family doesn't need to give such a big gift. Thank you for your hard work!"

Li Si suddenly felt that all the fatigue in his body had disappeared, and his whole body was filled with endless power.

Ding Huixin asked Guoer to deliver the gift she had just prepared.

Both Niu Er and Li Si were given the same set of cotton summer shirts. But Li Si had an extra set of protective gloves for Aunt Li.

Aunt Li's gauntlet is made of black silk and brocade. Not to mention the scarcity and preciousness of the fabric, there are several rich flowers embroidered on it, which are Aunt Li's favorite flowers. This kind of sentiment is very rare.

"Although Zhangjia'ao is not cold, my aunt is cold. I made this with my own hands. You can take it with you when you go back. It's a little bit of my appreciation!"

Li Si took the things and felt warm in his heart.

Although they don't lack anything now, this is the first time that he and his mother have received a gift from someone else. Although his clothes were not made by his boss himself, a lot of thought was put into preparing them. Not to mention, he

Mom, this one was embroidered by the owner herself.

“Thank you, boss!”

Niu Er and Li Si kowtowed to Ding Huixin to express their inner gratitude. Li Si's eyes were moist.

Ding Huixin didn't expect that her thoughts would make both of them cry, and she felt even more embarrassed.

"Okay, okay, you see you all have gifts, I don't have anything!" Ding Rui said deliberately acting coquettishly.

"You are the only one with good skin!" Ding Huixin tapped Ding Rui's forehead with her finger. Due to Ding Rui's interruption, Niu Er and Li Si immediately stepped back and adjusted their mood. At the same time, they were grateful to Ding Rui for being attentive.

"Yours is in your room. I'll try it out later. If it doesn't fit, I'll change it again!"

"Mom made it, it must be a hundred suitable!" Ding Rui said exaggeratedly.

"Glib!"

Although Ding Huixin said this, she was really happy. She had nothing to do at home in the past six months, so she prepared clothes and shoes and socks for Ding Rui and Ding Fang every day. Two sets each for spring, summer, autumn and winter, until Guoer said that Master Rui wanted more

She had to stop if it was long, otherwise there would be more.

In order to celebrate Ding Rui's acceptance of the two brothers Ding Dong and Ding Xi, Mrs. Ding authorized the five members of the Ding family to dine with Niu Er and Li Si. In this era, slaves can only eat what is left by the master and are not allowed to eat at the table. This is

The Ding family is extremely grateful to Mr. Ding for this great favor.

After the five members of the Ding family thanked the old man, they only dared to use their chopsticks when they saw the head table moving.

Ding Rui secretly praised that Ding Zhong's family of five has many smart people. It seems that he will have to find more children from such a family in the future. Although he is opposed to human trafficking, this era has its own rules. Now that he is here, he will do it.
