Quick Wear: The Cannon Fodder Male Supporting Character's Counterattack
Chapter 502: Traveling Through Time and Being a Slave (4)
He had been having a lot of bad luck these days, and he thought Ning Ning had noticed something was wrong and was trying to make things difficult for him.
It turned out to be a false alarm!
That's what he said. His words were so advanced that a feudal bumpkin like Ning Ning would be intimidated immediately after hearing them, so how could he have any other thoughts?
Before that, he was just unlucky for a while!
Next, he had to continue his grand plan and keep Ning Ning as his slave!
It is true that he is a time traveler, and he was not used to it at first. Although he traveled through time and space and became a superior person, a young master of an official family, the productivity was low in ancient times after all. Many things that even ordinary people in modern times can enjoy were fantasy in ancient times.
Not to mention, even if the emperor wanted to eat a few lychees, he had to spend a huge amount of manpower and resources, and he couldn't eat them at any time.
Therefore, time travel is not a good thing for him.
But who can blame him for being so smart? He knows that he should make the best of it. Since he has traveled through time, he should actively integrate into the world and his thoughts and behaviors should be similar to those of the ancients.
It was because of this that he disliked Ning Ning even more.
Since he has become a slave due to poverty, he should just sign the indenture contract, but he refuses to do so and only wants to work for three years and then go out to take the imperial examinations. What a wishful thinking.
So what if he passes the exam in the future?
His colleagues would look down on him if they knew he used to be a slave!
The same goes for the Chen family, they don’t have any skills in controlling their subordinates.
Now that he has entered the mansion, he will know more or less what is going on there. How can he get the chance to go out and talk nonsense!
No, he had to put things right!
The most important thing in life is to accept your fate, otherwise you will cause trouble and make chaos!
He observed Ning Ning carefully for another two days and found that although he was beaten and couldn't get up, Ning Ning was never vague about what he was supposed to do. He would not be lazy just because no one was watching him, and he took care of him wholeheartedly. He felt relieved and continued to think about it.
Sure enough, he discovered something inappropriate.
Ning Ning is actually very close to the eldest young master's personal attendant Mo Ran!
It's worth it!
Could it be that Ning Ning has no brains at all? !
He is from this courtyard, how can he be so close to people from other courtyards? It's really too much!
So, he secretly followed Ning Ning, and when Ning Ning met Mo Ran again, he ran over to eavesdrop.
Then Mo Ran said to Ning Ning, "This is the book that the young master lent me. He said he's not in a hurry to read it and asked me to return it when I finish reading it. In that case, you can read it first and I'll read it after you finish."
"The young master knows this, he won't blame you, right?"
"No, the eldest master knows that I lent you the book, but he didn't say anything, which means he acquiesced. The eldest master likes us to read more books, not only for our future, but also for talking to him more, and it also shows that our Chen family has a noble family tradition. The eldest master likes scholars the most, but you and I are different. I just read blindly, but you will have to take the imperial examination in the future. Here, take it quickly."
"Then I would be disrespectful."
"What are you doing!"
Chen Yiming pushed the door open and barged in. "Ning Ning, I have important work to do but I can't find you anywhere. You came out to slack off when you have time, right?!"
Mo Ran hurriedly explained, "Second Young Master, please don't blame him. I asked him to come over because I have something to lend him."
"You don't have to say anything. You are Big Brother's man, so I can't punish you. I will go and talk to Big Brother about this in person. You go back first!"
Mo Ran had no choice but to leave worriedly.
Then Chen Yiming went to his elder brother and said, "Brother, these servants are already difficult to manage. Why do we need to teach them more? For the servants around you and me, it is enough to learn to read. After all, some jobs are easier to do if you know how to read. But why do we need to lend them books to read? It is not a good thing for servants to know too much. Not only will it delay their work, but it will also make them wild and naughty."
Brother Chen looked at him with a half-smile, "Hey, why is it a servant again? Isn't it time for you to treat Ning Ning as your own brother? I remember you said that you get along better with him than with a brother like me!"
"That's right. I was ignorant before. After my father taught me a lesson, I also understood the truth. I know that what I did before was wrong. Servants are servants. If you get too close to them, it is easy for them to have inappropriate thoughts. So, brother, you should set an example for me."
"Brother, you are really good at changing your attitude according to the situation. It's just that your change of attitude is too sudden and too drastic. Never mind, I don't care about your business. It's just that how I treat my servants is my business and has nothing to do with you. At most, we will never provoke the people in your courtyard again. We can't afford to provoke them. It's a pity for Ning Ning. She must be dizzy when you order her to go south and north at the same time!"
Chen Yiming was so angry that he took two deep breaths, but he knew it was useless to continue talking, so he turned around and walked away angrily.
He knew that his current actions were unwise. This era emphasized the power of family. His brother was the legitimate son and would get a larger share in the future. Chen's mother was also a daughter of an official family and would have connections in her natal family that could lend him support in the future.
But on his side, his aunt was of humble origin and died early, so he could not be relied on at all. Therefore, it was not a wise move for him not to have a good relationship with his eldest brother.
But he didn't care anymore. The imperial examination was about to begin and he was going to take the exam. As long as he had fame and honor in his hands, why would he care what these people did?
He is also a college graduate in this world, and after more than ten years of hard study, how could he not score worse than these ancients!
As for entering the officialdom in the future, huh, he had read so many books on thick black studies and watched so many workplace dramas before he traveled through time, and he had plenty of tricks to deal with those ancients. The most urgent task was to suppress Ning Ning first.
But he continued to be a good guy in front of Ning Ning. This time he looked around carefully to see if there was anyone around before whispering to Ning Ning, "Brother has many misunderstandings about me. You know that. Who knows what tricks the people in their room are up to? How can you get too close to them! I stopped you from taking the book from Mo Ran before because I wanted to protect you. I said those words to brother to make them give up and think that I really treat you as a servant. Don't worry, if you want to read a book, I will definitely lend it to you in the future. For now, you should help me pack some things and accompany me to the imperial examination. This is a real big world, so I took you there."
