Chapter 43
"Oh, it turns out that it's Steward Li from the Xie Mansion who is here, so I'm going to call the boss here! You sit down first..." The waiter hurried forward to greet him, "Come here, serve tea to Steward Li..."

Shi Jing and Gao Xiaoxiao looked from the fence upstairs to the first floor, but saw the beardless servant of the Xie Mansion, and behind him were more than a dozen domestic servants, all of whom looked very sturdy , still holding sticks in their hands.

The little follower had his hips akimbo, looking defiant.

Gao Xiaoxiao frowned slightly, could it be that Xie Dadong backtracked and planned to find someone to take revenge on them?
Although it's not difficult to fight them, Gao Xiaoxiao really doesn't want to cause trouble anymore.

So she gave Shi Jing a wink, planning to go with her first is the best policy.

Coincidentally, the little follower had just sat down when he spotted them upstairs.

"Hey! Miss Shi! Miss Gao!" The little follower waved his hands vigorously at them. Seeing that they were about to leave, he hurried upstairs, and the servants behind him also formed a line, and they all crowded upstairs.

Although the fat man in gold and silver was a little puzzled as to why the housekeeper of the Xie Mansion seemed to know them, but when he saw Shi Jing and Gao Xiaoxiao planning to sneak away, he wisely stopped them.

When Butler Li came upstairs, he hurriedly pulled Shi Jing forward to claim the credit, "Butler Li, these two chicks were going to run away just now, but luckily I saw them!" The fat man glared at Shi Jing proudly, and secretly He muttered: "Those who dare to offend the Xie Mansion, you will have good fruit to eat!"

"Escape?" Li Butler was a little puzzled, and looked at the fat man again, "Who are you?"

The fat man smiled obsequiously, "Butler Li is really a noble person who forgets things too much. We just met the day before yesterday. I am also from the Xie Mansion. I work in the warehouse at the east gate. My name is Qian Kuan, but everyone in the mansion calls me Fatty Qian... "

"Fatty Qian?" Steward Li scratched his face. He vaguely remembered that he had indeed seen a group of newcomers working in the mansion a few days ago, but there were so many people, how could he remember them all.

"Butler Li, what do you mean?" Shi Jing frowned, "Send someone to find fault with us?"

Butler Li was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said with a playful smile: "Miss Shi, what are you talking about? I came here today to pay back the money under the order of our young master. Hey, you don't have eyes, don't let Shi go!" Miss!"

Fatty Qian was a little dazed when he heard what Steward Li said, but he still couldn't turn the corner, "Butler Li, these two chicks didn't pay much attention to the Xie family just now, and the shop owner didn't take Xie's house seriously either. The government takes it seriously!"

The owner of the store was called out, and he knelt on the ground in fright, "Butler Li, this is really wronged. We are a small store, and no distinguished guest can afford to offend. I ordered the two ladies according to your request." A good position, yes, but I didn't expect Mr. Qian..."

The store owner hurriedly explained what happened just now.

Hearing what the shop owner said, Fatty Qian saw that his momentum was getting weaker and weaker, "This seat was booked by... Butler Li?" He watched Butler Li's face change and changed, and he murmured to himself, "Why didn't you come early just now?" explain……"

"Miss, I'm to blame for this. I didn't arrange the affairs of the ladies properly." Butler Li rubbed his hands and said a little uneasy.

Then he looked at the fat man, and suddenly changed his face, "What did you say your name was?"

"Qian, Fatty Qian..." The fat man's tone became visibly weaker.

"Fatty Qian, isn't it..." Butler Li's complexion was getting worse and worse, and he looked up and down the fat man with his eyes, "What are you trying to show off by dressing like this? You are working as an errand in Xie's mansion, and you dress more conspicuously than the young master. Are you Didn't you want to tell others that you are richer than the young master?"

When the fat man heard this, his face turned blue with fright, "Come on, housekeeper... how could I have such an idea... I, I was wrong, I'll take it off right now..." He hurriedly put his hand on it in a panic. He took off his gold chain and ring, as well as the gold, silver and precious stones on his body, and piled them on the table in front of Butler Li. "The housekeeper is welcome to accept these..."

Butler Li glanced at him in disgust, "What, who do you think I am, and take away your rags! From now on, don't work in the Xie Mansion, get out of here!"

"Housekeeper, I know I was wrong, please give me another chance..." Fatty Qian knelt on the ground, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and begged.

"Opportunity? You have offended the young master's friend, and you dare to ask me to give you a chance!" Li Butler patted the table and said loudly, "Do you want me to tell the young master about this and see if the young master will give you a chance?!"

Fatty Qian was frightened. He blinked his small eyes and looked at Shi Jing and Gao Xiaoxiao in disbelief. After he realized it, he crawled to their feet and kowtowed, "My little one is wrong, my little one!" That's wrong, the young one has blind eyes, didn't know that the two honored guests are the young master's friends, the young one should be damned, please ladies spare the young one..."

"Hey, that's fine, let's go." Shi Jing waved her hand, in fact, she and Gao Xiaoxiao couldn't react, when did they become Xie Dadong's friends?

"Little one, here, here..." The fat man didn't dare to ask for any more chances. He offended the young master's friend, and it was a blessing among misfortunes that he was able to escape unscathed.

"Hey, wait, take away your rags! Do you think ladies care about you?" Butler Li kicked him.

The fat man hurriedly nodded and bowed, wrapped the things on the table with his clothes, and went downstairs tremblingly, tripping a few times on the way, but no one dared to pick up the gold and silver ornaments he left behind.

Shi Jing felt a little regretful that the jewels on the table had been taken away. Butler Li was rich and powerful and indeed treated those treasures as rags, but she was really rare for those sparkling gems and gold ornaments.

But she and Gao Xiaoxiao still pretended to be calm.

"Miss, please sit down..." After the man left, the housekeeper seemed to remember the purpose of his visit, and hurriedly greeted them to sit down.He greeted the shop owner to order the best tea and snacks in the shop.

"After doing this, I almost forgot the business." Butler Li waved back, "Bring up the box."

Several strong men carried a big box and went upstairs wheezing.

The golden nanmu box fell to the ground so hard that the floor shook.

"Miss, this is the [-] gold coins that our young master gave you. You can count it. If there is no problem, I will have someone carry it to the ladies' room." Butler Li said, taking a sip of his tea.

Just as Shi Jing opened a crack of the box, the golden light from inside almost illuminated the room.

Shi Jing hurriedly closed it, coughed, and said: "There is no need to count, we can trust Master Xie's character." Then she remembered something, took out the pendant from her bosom, handed it to Butler Li, and said: "This Please ask the steward to return the pendant to Master Xie..."

But Butler Li didn't answer, but said with a smile: "There's no rush, Miss Shi can hand it over to our young master."
