The women of the Xu Family stared at him in disbelief.
"Mr. Chen, are you... are you serious? Can you really take us away from here?" Liu Miaozhi’s voice trembled slightly.
"It’s written in black and white; why would I deceive you?"
Chen Mo took out an official document and handed it to Liu Miaozhi.
Seeing the clear official document with the Ministry of Rites’ seal at the bottom, she finally realized that everything was true.
Since the Xu Family’s incident, they had been relegated to the Imperial Music Bureau, and it had been a full six years.
The hardships they had endured were known only to them. Without Chen Mo, they would have perished in a dark alley, just like the other female workers, drained of their last value and becoming the sustenance for this Gold Cave.
They had already been quite content with their current lives; who would have thought they could leave here in their lifetime?
This was something they didn’t even dare to dream of!
"But not right now; at least wait until the situation stabilizes a bit." Chen Mo paused, pondering, "Probably after the Longevity Festival. Once I finish my current tasks, I can start preparing for this."
"No rush, we can wait!"
"Whether it’s one or two months, even five or ten years, we can wait!"
Liu Miaozhi’s eyes reddened as she bowed deeply, saying, "Mr. Chen, your benevolence is like creating me anew. Even if I were to be a beast of burden for the rest of my life, it would be hard to repay!"
"Thank you, Mr. Chen!"
Xu Ling’er and the others also knelt down one after another, their foreheads hitting the ground hard, tears rolling down their cheeks.
"We are on the same side; no need to be so formal."
Chen Mo raised his hand, a gentle breeze lifting them up.
Yu’er nestled in his arms, looking up at his handsome face, her eyes full of deep affection.
In fact, helping the Xu Family brought no benefit to Chen Mo; it might even cause him trouble, but he did it for one reason only, and that was for her...
"Meeting the Master might be the luckiest thing in my life, right?" Yu’er found herself a little obsessed.
After adjusting their emotions, the women of the Xu Family thanked him again and left the room joyfully.
Liu Miaozhi stayed behind, hesitating for a moment, and then softly said, "Mr. Chen, if you have time later, could you come and find me? I have something I’d like to discuss with you."
"Alright."
Chen Mo nodded.
He only thought she wanted to express her gratitude and didn’t think much of it.
Once the women left, the atmosphere quieted down.
Chen Mo sat on a chair by the window, with Yu’er clinging to him like a plaster, unwilling to let go.
Gu Manzhi swayed over, speaking softly, "The Lord should be quite busy lately, right? How do you have time to come over?"
Chen Mo smiled and said, "No matter how busy, I should come back home frequently."
