Soft-waisted little maid

"Can I leave?" Sun Zan asked her softly, looking at her with a bottomless look.

Xue Ke nodded timidly.

"Wait a minute -" He Chengxiang hurriedly took two steps forward to block them, "Third Young Master, this girl is -"

"She is mine. You kidnapped her here. You should be prepared to bear the consequences of this matter." Sun Zan raised his cold eyes one by one. The air around him became tense. The two people kneeling outside were already very excited. I didn't dare to go out, I just felt that every minute and second passed by extremely long.

Sun Zan looked at He Chengxiang from top to bottom, and the corner of his mouth curled up: "The people in the gambling shop are merciful to you. They owe you such a large sum of money and let you come back intact. Seeing me around Uncle, I still showed mercy. As expected, it would be better for me to do this myself."

He Chengxiang was originally a strong-willed person, but it was the elder, Mrs. Xue, who just now dared to show such an aura that he would not give up on them, but when he heard this, he was dumbfounded again.

The third young master actually had his eye on me at that moment. In the past, everyone in this family only regarded him as a bookworm who abided by the rules, but now the man with a calm face, but there was unconcealable cruelty in his eyes. Yes, who is it if it’s not the third young master Sun Zan?
He Chengxiang's tone softened: "Third Young Master, this matter itself has been decided by the master and the elders. Even if you send the child to the government, it is still a family matter and cannot be dealt with by the government. You might as well turn a blind eye. Close your eyes, why bother getting into trouble with the Second Mistress over such a girl?"

Sun Zan was about to speak when he felt Xue Ke behind him suddenly tighten his grip on the corners of his clothes.

Her head was hanging down, making it difficult to see her expression clearly. Only one hand was red, which was the mark left on her hand when she had just grasped the hairpin in an attempt to resist.

Sun Zan's heart sank.

He turned sideways, guarding her calmly, and said, "Report to the official?" He sneered, "Isn't the county magistrate of Yin County having wine in our house right now? My father happens to be here, too. As a second-grade chief envoy, there is no bigger official in the entire Yin County, right? How about this, I will detain you now and go to him, in front of so many court officials, to see your second wife Xue’s guardian Can’t I protect you?”

"Third Young Master, please spare your life!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the two people outside started kowtowing.He looked tall and tall, but the way he cherished his life at the moment looked ridiculous and funny. One of them was so panicked that the wrinkles on his face were shaking: "Third Young Master, you are killing your slaves. .If the Second Mistress finds out that we failed on our errand and stabs the Second Master in front of the Second Master, then the little ones will have to lose their skin even if they don’t die!"

The other one saw that the man surnamed He was still dissatisfied, so he quickly crawled over and dragged them together to kowtow to the ground: "Third Young Master, please spare us, Third Young Master."

Sun Zan stared at them coldly: "What? Now that you are thinking about your own lives, why are other people's lives not life, but yours?"

After that, he led Xue Ke out without looking back.

One of the "Third Young Masters" still wanted to speak, but was kicked hard in the chest by Sun Zan. He immediately fell to the ground and rolled over, grinning in pain, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"You two -" he looked at the two idiots at the door, "go and get thirty big boards by yourself, and then go back to the second grandma to report back. You messed up the errand. I think she wants to teach you a lesson more than me. As for you ——”

Sun Zan looked at He Chengxiang.

"For the sake of your mother, I'll give you some time. Go say goodbye to her tonight. I think after today, she will never see you again." After saying that, she left straight away and took off the sticker. Happy words on the door.
.
Liu Zhu searched for a long time in the yard but could not find the figure of the third young master. In addition, he was blown away by the cold wind, which made him wake up from the wine.

This would be fatal. On such a critical day, the third young master was unexpectedly missing. If the masters blamed him, he would inevitably be punished, but he didn't dare to tell others. He originally thought about it, so he would be imprisoned. Xue Ke searched for it together, but when he returned to the yard, he found that the pile of washed clothes was still thrown into the bucket, and several buckets on the ground were also turned over. He didn't know where he went.

There are so many people in this courtyard, something must have happened.Liu Zhu was so anxious that he ran around the yard until he returned to the study and saw that there was light inside. He opened the door and saw the third young master and Xue Ke.

One of them was standing by the desk, and the other was sitting on a distinguished chair not far away with his head nodding, still wearing the third young master's robe.

"Master, what is this?" Liu Zhu asked, glancing at Xue Ke, who had his head lowered and said nothing, "Second Mistress didn't see you, so she sent someone to look for you."

Sun Zan glanced at Xue Ke, then walked to the door and told Liu Zhu: "It's okay, don't ask too much about what you saw today, and don't tell anyone about it. You go and help me find the fourth master. Just say that I am still here for what happened last time." Please ask him to come over immediately."

Liu Zhu suppressed a hundred words he wanted to ask in his heart, but they were still lingering in his throat. He found that Xue Ke never raised his head to look over at him, and said in a disappointed tone: "I know, slave. Let's go now."

After Liu Zhu left, Sun Zan closed the door again and poured a cup of hot tea for Xue Ke: "Are you feeling better?"

Xue Ke nodded, his voice a little hoarse: "Thank you, Master."

Sun Zan smiled helplessly: "I think it was my mother who came to find something for you, but you came to thank me. I should be sorry for you."

Xue Ke lowered his head and said nothing.

Seeing this, Sun Zan walked up to her and squatted down.He was tall, so he could look into Xueke's lowered eyes. He looked at her and then said: "Xueke, didn't you ask me before how my mother loved me and why I always didn't even eat with her?" Don’t want to?”

Hearing this, she blinked slightly: "Master, don't you like Second Grandma too?"

Sun Zan shook his head: "Everyone in the house knows about my mother's temperament. My father also tried to persuade her a few times, but she felt that neither father nor son wanted her anymore. She cried, made trouble, and hanged herself in the yard, saying I am going to invite my grandfather who is far away in Hangzhou to take her back."

"Later, no one could do anything about her, so they followed her. After all, for them, it was just a matter of changing a few servants. You have been in the house since you were a child. You must not know how to buy it from Ren Yazi. How much does it cost for a maid in her early ten years?"

Xue Ke shook his head.

"Only ten taels," Sun Zan said, "even not as good as my fifth sister's box of rouge money."
