Chapter 6

Outside the house, Xia Tao, the eldest maid Xia Tao was talking to other young maids, and she was startled when she saw his anxious look, because this person was none other than Chong Er, the close servant of the uncle.

"What's the matter with you? Why are you drenched in the rain? Aren't you supposed to follow the master?" He greeted the little maid and hurriedly took the handkerchief for Chong'er.

"problem occurs!"

The big maid Xia Tao's heart skipped a beat: "What happened? What's wrong with Master?"

The servant Chong'er said anxiously: "It's not the master, it's the second master... The second master participated in gambling and was taken down. The master sent a servant back to ask the eldest lady to redeem him with money."

"What?! This second master is really real. He never takes money from home. He just knows how to play outside all day long. Now that he's fine, he's actually... even bet on it..." The big maid Xia Tao couldn't help but be anxious. , Hurry into the house and report.

The eldest lady of the Yao family, surnamed Sun, was known as Mrs. Yao. She was resting in the house, but the weather was sultry and there were several thunderclaps, which disturbed her to sleep.

In a daze, he seemed to hear his maid talking to someone, and then heard her come in and give a report to him.

Now, Mrs. Yao couldn't lie still, she immediately sat up: "Hurry up and let Chong Er come in."

"Yes, ma'am."

The eldest maid, Xia Tao, went out to invite someone.

The servant Chong'er took the towel handed over by the little maid, wiped it carelessly, and quickly followed the big maid Xia Tao into the room.

"I have seen Mrs."

"Get up, tell me what's going on, why would a good second master gamble with others?" In Mrs. Yao's impression, second master was not up to date, and liked to raise birds and fight crickets for fun, but gambling He would never do such a thing as prostitution.

But now, the servant next to her man kept saying that the second master was involved in gambling and was detained?

"Returning to Madam, the specific slave is not very clear. At that time, the uncle was drinking tea with someone, and the servant was waiting outside. Suddenly someone came to the door with the token of the second master and asked the uncle to pay for the second master. I took off the second master's arm."

"How courageous!" Mrs. Yao thumped the bed angrily when she heard that, "That's the Viscount's younger brother, they actually said the same thing, don't they want to live?"

The servant Chong Er did not dare to speak.

Mrs. Yao was angry for a while, and said, "How much money do you want?"

"One thousand taels."

"what?!"

"Gold." Chong Er, the servant, added two words weakly.

Not to mention one thousand taels of gold in the public account, there is not even one thousand taels of silver.Where does this make her find money?Mrs. Yao took a deep breath, rolled her eyes, and passed out immediately.

The eldest maid, Xia Tao, was so frightened that she hurried over to help her: "Madam, Madam, what's wrong with you? Madam..."

The servant Chong'er took a few steps forward, remembered that he was a man, and quickly backed away: "Sister Xia Tao, hurry up and look at your wife."

Supporting Madam, the big maid Xia Tao burst into tears, and said distressedly: "Madam is not in good health, and she still needs to be in charge of the house. She often sleeps half-night and half-night. Only if she can hold on." , What are you looking at, why don't you hurry up and ask the doctor..."

Xia Tao, a maidservant, was in charge, and the house was not in a mess. Someone invited a doctor, made a bed, and everyone quickly got busy.

It's just that the servant Chong'er stood here, not to mention a little "redundant", and also very obtrusive.

"What are you still doing here? Go to the second bedroom about the second bedroom. Didn't you see that our wife is still fainting?" The first maid Xia Tao defended her wife, "Isn't her second wife very capable, she wants to be in charge of the house?" Well, I keep finding fault with my wife all day long, now it's all right, she can be the master of the house, and she can worry about her own man's affairs..."

The servant Chong'er was immediately kicked out.

"Hey..." Wanting to explain, but afraid of delaying the matter of the master and son, the servant Chong Er could only give a sigh of relief to the courtyard door, and hurried to the second bedroom's courtyard.

Fortunately, although the servant girl Xia Tao was a little stiff-mouthed, she didn't forget to ask the little servant girl to prepare an umbrella for him. This time he won't have to continue to suffer from the rain.

That's right, what's the use of holding an umbrella when you're already drenched in the water?

Probably, it just doesn't need to rain.

On the other side, in Mrs. Yao's yard, Mrs. Yao was talking to an unremarkable servant.

It turned out that this young man was in charge of guarding the gate of Zhongzhong, but she bought him off, and asked him to report to her at any time if there was any movement at home.

If the report is good, maybe you can get a "big reward".

No, the boy Chong'er just came in from the gate, drenched in the rain, and walked through the center with an anxious expression on his face, the boy hurried to the second room to "ask for a reward".

Mrs. Yao and Mrs. Yao are not on good terms, so of course they are eager to see Da Fang's jokes.

Hearing that the servant said that the servant next to the uncle ran wildly in the rain, something must have happened, and he immediately laughed: "Really, did you say what happened?"

"This little one doesn't know, his mouth is so tight, how could he tell the little one."

Mrs. Yao's expression changed instantly, and she became a little unhappy: "I don't know anything, so why do you come here to ask for a reward? Whoever stands there can see him running there, and can tell me...then I Why should I give you a reward?"

"Second Madam, that's not what you said. According to what you said, the little one doesn't need to make such a trip. If the little one doesn't run away, wouldn't it be too late for you to know the news? This night , maybe the matter over there has been resolved..." The boy became a little unhappy when he heard that Mrs. Yao Er wanted to withhold his reward.

Although he didn't show it on his face, he was already complaining in his heart: If you don't have money, don't pretend to be rich!
Mrs. Yao didn't see it, and she didn't bother to look at the face of a servant, so she winked at Qiu He, the eldest maid, and asked her to take out the smallest red envelope.

As soon as the boy got it in his hand, he was disgusted.

There's no way, even if someone can get to his level, even if he doesn't have other skills, he still has the ability to figure out how much money is in the red envelope.

Without saying anything, he beat Qian'er and honestly left Mrs. Yao's yard.

But when he got outside, he spat on Mrs. Yao's yard: "Damn! Just those few copper coins, how about sending a beggar? If it wasn't for me..."

Before the words were finished, I saw someone walking towards this side with an umbrella.

He quickly got behind the rockery next to him.

It was only when he got closer that he realized that this was not what he just mentioned to the second lady, the servant next to the uncle?

Didn't he go to the eldest lady, why did he come to the second lady again?
It's wet, and I'm holding an umbrella...

Suddenly there was a guess in my heart, you know, to be able to become the personal servant of the master, he must have a higher status in the house than ordinary servants, anyone who saw it would have to call "Brother".

But now, the "noble" brother Chong'er is not in a hurry to change his clothes, but runs around the house covered in rain, so there is nothing wrong with it?
Thinking about it this way, the boy looked at Mrs. Yao's yard: Yes, the present report is here!
