Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 871 Driving people away
There was steam in the bathtub inside the house, and there was heavy snow outside.

When I came back, I heard that Jifeng took Xinyue to have a snowball fight in the old lady's courtyard. Since the last time they built a snowman together, Jifeng found this new playmate who was relatively free and could always accompany him. Miss Ji, who kept saying that she cared most about her, was temporarily put aside in an inconspicuous corner.

Ning Xiuyuan originally thought of staying here today, but Ji Wuyan reminded him with one sentence. After sending the person back, he said that there were still some things to deal with and left without stopping.

Ji Wuyan had some free time, so he asked Ziqiu to prepare a bathtub and take a good soak.

However, Ziqiu refused to let her have some free time. Ji Wuyan didn't want anyone to wait on her when she was bathing, and she didn't like people hanging around her either. Ziqiu moved a small stool and sat behind the screen, chattering. He explained how carefully he had watched the restless little maid during the period when Ji Wuyan was away, "The slave said that she should not have been allowed to work in the kitchen in the first place. The work was still too little. She was too busy... not long after breakfast, she seemed to have nothing to do, just looking here and there to see where there was something to clean. "

"My slave told her that we have a cleaner in the courtyard. She just needs to do her job well. If nothing happens, don't walk around doing things in the fields... Girl, you said that your slave is right. right?"

Ji Wuyan's whole body was wrapped in warm water. She squinted her eyes and enjoyed it. She said "hmm" lightly, but felt it was a bit perfunctory, so she added, "Very good... Then what?"

"Then she answered and went to the small kitchen. The slave girl stayed in our courtyard for a while. When she saw that she didn't wander around anymore, she went to do her own thing. Who knew she came back and saw her poking her head again? ! This person is really... girl, she is so restless, who knows when something bad will happen, let’s get rid of her! "

Ji Wuyan closed his eyes and shrank back into the bathtub before saying "hmm" in a low voice. Now that the East Palace knew his identity, they would probably take some action soon. Bai Xue was his spy at first, but now He was working for the Fifth Elder again, and it was really hard to keep the people on the wall on these two sides. She opened her eyes, looked at the figure falling on the screen, and said softly, "If you give her three months' worth of monthly money, just say that our courtyard can no longer afford so many people, and let her find another employer. Three A month's worth of money should be enough for her to find a new employer."

This is just a decent statement. Ji Wuyan naturally knows that Bai Xue's employer is arranged by the East Palace. Even if there is no employer for a year and a half, there will still be monthly money from the East Palace.

Ziqiu was naturally happy to see the success and smiled, "Okay, I'll wait until the girl gets up and I'll go back... I didn't have to work for long, so the girl is generous and is willing to pay for three months... She should I'm so happy! Oh, I'm so happy, I'm finally going to get out. Although I can't make any waves under my nose, I'm still not at ease!"

"Wow..."

The girl in the bathtub slowly stood up, pulled up her wet hair, and coaxed with a smile, "In order to have a happy autumn for our family, girl, I will not take a bath. I will come in and wait for your girl to get out of the bath." Bar!"

The little maid sitting behind the screen stood up instantly, "Okay!"

I thought so, this maid who once caused a little ripple in these peaceful days would take the compensation, pack her things and leave today. Unexpectedly, Ji Wuyan had just pulled up his half-dried hair and was flipping through the account books delivered in the past two days under the window. Zi Qiu rushed in angrily while rolling up his sleeves, "Girl! Girl, that Bai Xue is so awesome." Shameless! So shameless!”

The little girl was panting with her hands on her hips, like a hungry old cow plowing two acres of land.

To be able to make this girl so angry, I have to say that Bai Xue is a character. Ji Wuyan lazily closed the account book and handed over the warm tea cup in front of him, "What's going on? You think the money is not enough?" Zi Qiu poured himself a cup of tea, then gasped and said, "That's not true. . After all, even in Yanjing City, there will be no good people who have only been working for a long time and have made a big mistake and left for three months."

"What's the matter? You don't want to leave?" After saying that, he picked up another teacup, poured a cup of tea and handed it over.

Ziqiu waved his hand and said, "I'm not thirsty, but I ran a little too fast and was out of breath... At first I didn't say anything and didn't leave, unless I said I didn't make a mistake. Look, you can say such things! I'm angry too, so I She said that she would ask the servant to sort out her things and throw them out for everyone to comment on. Not to mention three months' monthly payment, not even a copper plate would be given to her, so she just agreed. It’s snowing heavily today, and we’re in the countryside, so the road is not easy to walk, so we’ll have to leave tomorrow.”

"She also said that if the slave doesn't agree to her, she will hit our stone lion to death. Do you think she is very angry?"

Probably just after taking a bath, Ji Wuyan huddled up in the fur blanket and felt a little tired for no reason. Hearing this, he just lazily smiled and persuaded, "Let's do it tomorrow... It's really not easy to walk on this snowy day. , If we arrange a carriage to send it back, you girl will probably be even more unhappy, right?"

The little girl hummed with a look of reluctance, "Of course! Who wants to give her away to someone who causes trouble?"

"So... let's do it tomorrow. If something bad happens on the road, we'll be in trouble..." After saying that, he tugged on the blanket again, shrunk in more and more, and squinted his eyes to support himself. Lower your jaw with a comforting smile.

"Then if it snows again tomorrow, is it possible to allow her to stay here any longer?"

Ji Wuyan raised his eyelids, his eyes slightly cold, and ordered, "Go and tell her that no matter whether it snows or not tomorrow, let her leave with the shopping car. In this way, it can be regarded as the last moment with this girl." A little master-servant feeling.”

Only then did Ziqiu nod his head, pursed his lips in a low voice, and muttered reluctantly, "It really gave her an advantage!" After saying that, he felt blessed and went out.

Looking out of the open window, even if it was just a silhouette, one could see that the little girl was groaning in anger.

Ji Wuyan watched Ziqiu disappear from sight. After a while, the tea cup in his hand placed on the small table with a "pop" sound.

She has never been a kind person, and she cannot tolerate being manipulated or threatened by others, nor can she tolerate those around her being manipulated and threatened. Zi Qiu has always been kind-hearted. If someone else wanted to leave, he would take the initiative to leave him until the snow stopped and the ice melted. This shows that what Bai Xue said was probably really unpleasant...

However, at this time, Ji Wuyan did not expect that the small amount of mercy would lead to a farce that could turn into a big mistake.
