The Secret Code of Monsters

Chapter 442 Ch.441 The Lady Who Sit Still

Peggy Streeter was too busy.

After her brother fell down from a building after getting drunk, she met a lot of people.

The sheriff, the sheriff's young and promising son, Mr. William, the miners' representative, and the little Kohler who had always been loyal to her--

She didn't want to be like that high-ranking figure, sitting comfortably on the sofa in fox fur, guarding a cup of steaming tea, treating the guests, officials, and even closer friendships standing upright like a servant.

She stood up to greet everyone she saw, and she would not sit down until they sat down.

Peggy Streeter did this all afternoon.

This made her feel that she was still Miss Peggy who was hanging out in joints, mines, and taverns, not Ms. Streeter.

This was the case all day.

The old housekeeper reminded her that such behavior was not decent and was not really "respectful" - those people didn't care whether you respected them or not. On the contrary, this welcoming behavior would make them look down on your bloodline and despise your past.

You shouldn't do this.

The old housekeeper said it twice, but Peggy didn't want to.

So he let her go.

The prominent people in Inns Town sent people to visit one after another, and asked in the letter whether Peggy was free, and expressed their desire to visit the next day -

At the same time, most of them severely reprimanded Peggy in the letter:

Reprimanded her for usurping her brother's title and master's identity.

She was just a woman, and the heir of the Street family should be a man.

Most of them were local wealthy merchants and officials.

Peggy expected such a result.

However, she was too busy to be angry with these people.

She first had to purge the servants who followed her brother in the manor, those who hid in the dark and tried to pass on information to the outside. Secondly, she had to arrange for some close and trusted miners to take over the guard work.

She protected herself, that is, the seat that she had worked so hard to get.

Finally.

She also had to place her brother's coffin and prepare for his funeral - Roland did not kill him, he "took the initiative" to jump down from the building.

And broke his neck accurately.

These things were beyond Peggy Street's ability: she had never done this since she was a child, and later, she wandered between the mines and the miners.

Suddenly, she was overwhelmed by the divine power.

However, when she was looking at the gas lamp in confusion and depression, the old housekeeper said something meaningful to her.

'As long as I point my finger, the water that should not flow will flow, and the ice that should not melt will melt. I can make wool grow and grow again, grow and grow again, and make the poor rich and poor, and poor and rich again. '

'You should have such power. '

He didn't ask Peggy to give up her innocent good thoughts, but he hoped that she would become 'tougher' - what on this land doesn't belong to you?

Pain and disaster don't belong to you.

Peggy slept soundly.

Early the next morning.

Some people couldn't wait to come to the door to inquire about the news.

First, the businessmen who depended on the mines for their livelihood.

They united and sent representatives to see Peggy:

The man spoke fiercely and harshly, and angrily rebuked Peggy Streeter, saying that she did something a woman shouldn't do and stole a treasure that didn't belong to her.

Her wisdom should be used on her family and children, and her strength should be used in serving and giving birth.

Instead of plotting a scepter that she couldn't control at all.

——And when the man learned that Henry Streeter, who had been cooperating with them, had "accidentally fallen to death" last night...

The whole person instantly became respectful, and his tone was like a girl who had just been conquered. He leaned on the hairy chest and spoke softly, like a very qualified family angel who was busy all day.

'Since we have a queen, why can't the Streeter family do the same? '

He expressed his high respect to Peggy in person and promised that the coal miners in Inns Town would always support the mistress of the Streeter family.

After she was truly recognized by law, they would give Peggy a sincere gift.

Next, it was the mayor.

He didn't know where he heard the news that Henry Streeter fell from the building, which was much smarter than the merchant representative.

He also received Peggy's "courtesy" - like a friend, she got up from the sofa to greet him.

This made the mayor flattered.

Usually, Mr. Streeter would sit and look at him.

Next, they talked a lot about the trivial matters of the burial, and the need for the mayor and the new owner of Street to speak in unison.

The old man, who looked almost 300 years old, patted his chest and assured that he absolutely supported Peggy and was willing to prove for her that she had nothing to do with Henry's fall from the building, and said that he would write a handwritten letter to urge them to let Peggy Street inherit the title as soon as possible.

Of course, in return, Peggy said that when she became the real owner, she would make "more reasonable" arrangements for the children of the old mayor.

For example, some positions where you can do nothing all day but get a good weekly salary.

After that.

The miners' representative came again.

This time, Peggy didn't get up from the sofa again.

She was a little tired after a busy day.

Besides, she couldn't get up to meet everyone, right?

What does this look like?

The servants in the room were watching.

If even a miner needs her to be intimate like a friend, to get up and go forward, hold hands, and ask about his well-being - how can she be a dignified and noble master in the eyes of the servants?

She didn't want to raise her meaningless chin, but everything was not stable at the moment.

She should at least "put on a show" first...

- This is what Peggy said to herself.

In short, she didn't get up again, and sat comfortably on the sofa, watching the miner being led by the servant all the way into the door.

This treatment was different from yesterday, and the miner was also a little stunned.

However, something engraved in his bones made him immediately react and realize who he was facing.

"Ms. Street."

He bowed.

Peggy moved her toes and waist, but used the previous "reason" to press herself firmly into the sofa.

She "hmm", a very light breath.

The miner representative came with little Kohler.

"Kohler, Pace."

Unlike before.

She didn't use "sir", and there was a reason.

Because she didn't want to make the miners feel uncomfortable - often the self-proclaimed kindness of the master does not make the servants comfortable, but makes them think too much and adds trouble.

"Your instructions."

Little Kohler took off his hat and touched his chest: "Our people have taken control of the police force, ma'am."

"Well done." Peggy smiled and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She wanted the miners who were close to her and followed her to take off their miners' uniforms and put on black coats representing the town police.

She couldn't repeat the same mistake and let the "other self" drive her down in the same way.

Then "fall from the building".

She wanted to control the power of the entire Inns Town, unlike her brother, who died foolishly under the coercion of those miners.

In this way, she would no longer be afraid of dreams.

Knock knock.

The housekeeper knocked on the door twice.

"Ma'am, Mr. William is here."
