idle mistress

Chapter 14 Serving in front of the master

This young master can't see a little dirty, but he likes to wear light-colored clothes; white clothes are easily dirty in this mountain, and this person has rough hair. He changes his clothes when he sees a little stain, and changes as soon as he says. Regardless of how much work this adds to others.

She squatted on the ground, bent over and immersed herself in the boring work, scrubbing and washing, humming pop songs naturally in her mouth.

When Chang Geng came over with two pieces of cakes, he heard her humming a tune, that strange tune was something he had never heard before, but it was surprisingly pleasant, he couldn't help but be fascinated by it while standing there.

It wasn't until the end of the song that he came back to his senses, walked quickly behind Xu Weiqiu, and called out: "Brother Zhao Fu."

Xu Weiqiu raised his head upon hearing the sound.

"Thank you just now."

She smiled and said calmly: "It's nothing, it's just a matter of raising your hands."

"Give".

Chang Geng handed her something, wrapped in dried lotus leaves, it should be edible.

Chang Geng opened the lotus leaf in front of her, and there were indeed two cakes inside.

"This is the rice cake I got from the kitchen. It's delicious. Try it."

"Thanks." Xu Weiqiu washed his hands, and took a piece into his mouth bluntly.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" Chang Geng kept staring at her face, waiting to see her amazing reaction after tasting it, but he didn't know that the person in front of him just nodded slightly, and replied him with two words: "It's not bad."

Chang Geng couldn't help being stunned for a moment, you must know that this kind of rice cake can only be eaten by rich families, and ordinary people can't touch it; I think that when I tasted it for the first time, I was shocked by the taste that melted in the mouth, really Didn't expect such delicious food to exist in this world.

These pastries were prepared for the master, and these servants would not be able to eat them at ordinary times. The two pieces in their hands were brazenly begged from the kitchen, and it cost twenty copper coins.

He knew that Zhao Fu was a corvee transferred from Guhuangshan, and his background as a corvee should be worse than his own.How could she react so blandly to such a precious food, just like eating whole grains? Could it be that this person has a problem with his sense of taste?

"Here's another piece." He handed another piece up.

"Brother Chang Geng, don't you want to eat?"

"Eat it, I brought it for you."

Xu Weiqiu nodded, picked up another piece and put it in his mouth.

But seeing that she chewed a few mouthfuls casually and then swallowed it, in Chang Geng's eyes, the way the cow chewed on the peony was inexplicably painful.

After Xu Weiqiu finished eating, he began to wash his clothes hard again. Chang Geng stood aside and chatted with her casually. While chatting, he suddenly lowered his voice and said:

"Zhao Fu, you are young, so you have to be careful when serving in front of your master."

Xu Weiqiu knew that the other party was kind enough to remind him, so he nodded and said, "I know."

"The last time I saw you lying on the master's reclining chair, I really sweated for you."

Xu Weiqiu smiled awkwardly: "I'm sick, I'm confused."

Chang Geng was afraid that she didn't know the seriousness of the matter, so he couldn't help but continue to mention her: "Let me tell you, the person who served the master before was called Zhao Cai."

"Well, I heard that."

"Then do you know how he died?"

The other party's nervous look really aroused Xu Weiqiu's curiosity, she couldn't help but stop rubbing her clothes, and looked at Chang Geng, with an air of listening attentively.

Seeing this, Chang Geng leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Master likes to fight crickets, you know that, right?"

"Yeah." She nodded, not understanding the relationship between a person's life and death and the little cricket.

"That day when Zhao Cai came back from catching a cricket from the mountain, the master was dissatisfied and killed him with a sword."

"No way?" Xu Weiqiu expressed disbelief.

"Really, I saw it with my own eyes." Chang Geng vowed that he did not lie.

"Isn't that a disregard for human life?"

As soon as this remark came out, Chang Geng tried to stop her nervously, not letting her continue, but Xu Weiqiu still raised his own doubts:

"If someone dies for no reason, is there no one to care about?"

"Who cares, who dares to care? Do you know that our master is..." Halfway through speaking, Chang Geng suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar white figure in the distance from the corner of his eyes. Chang Geng was startled, and hurriedly bent down to salute.

Seeing this, Xu Weiqiu turned his head in doubt, seeing Zhao Yan walking towards this side, his heart also trembled, thinking, the common saying goes well, don't talk about people during the day, and don't talk about ghosts at night.

She hastily put down the things in her hands, and imitated Chang Geng's appearance and stood upright.

Zhao Yan approached, without looking at Chang Geng, he said to Xu Weiqiu, "Zhao Fu, come with me." After speaking, he turned around and walked back.

"Yes!" Xu Weiqiu didn't dare to object, he turned his head and asked Chang Geng to put away his unwashed clothes for the time being, and hurriedly followed.

He thought that the Lord Shaofu came here personally to order something important, but later he realized that it was because the ancestor suddenly wanted to go fishing on a whim.

There must be bait for fishing, so Zhao Yan took the fishing rod and she carried other odds and ends, and the two went up the mountain one after the other.

As he walked, Xu Weiqiu raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Yan who was walking ahead; this man was wearing a hair crown and a light-colored robe, and he was about [-] meters tall by visual inspection.

Chang Geng's words sounded in her ears, she killed her own attendant for a cricket, she didn't quite believe that it was true, if it was true, then this person before her was an out-and-out murderer.

Xu Weiqiu knows that she is a face control and can't resist all good things, but she also knows that she can't judge people by appearance.

As the saying goes, people should not be judged by their appearance, otherwise, how did the idiom "dressed beast" come about?If you don't understand this point, wouldn't you have lived in vain for more than 20 years in your previous life.

Is he really a big murderer without blinking an eye?
Thinking that he might be staying with a murderer in this deserted mountain forest at this moment, Xu Weiqiu began to feel apprehensive. The few impressive horror movies he had seen before could not help but flash through his mind. all over.

Her steps are getting slower and slower, smaller and smaller.

Zhao Yan quickly noticed her lagging behind, looked at her with displeasure, and asked, "Can you walk?"

The man was standing on a rock, looking down at himself, holding a long fishing rod in his hand.That posture was no different from the way he whipped himself that day.

The scorching pain from the whip on the flesh was still fresh, Xu Weiqiu couldn't help shivering, he didn't want to suffer from the flesh again, so he had to bite the bullet and quickly followed.

However, she walked too fast and carried a lot of things in her hands. She climbed to a steep slope, and her foot slipped. She lost her balance and fell headlong into a bush.
