After rebirth, dribbling and leaving

Chapter 56 Cleaning up the East Courtyard

The Xin'an Marquis Mansion is now divided into the East Courtyard and the West Courtyard, with a moon gate in the middle!

The East Courtyard is divided into many small courtyards, where the current Marquis Su Mingyuan and his family live!

The west courtyard is where the second master Su Mingzhe and his family live!

Normally, the Moon Gate is closed and will only be opened when necessary!

Today, Mr. Su sat in the main courtyard with a sullen face, his sword-like eyebrows were raised, and there seemed to be ice in his voice!

"Uncle Hua, take my people and gather all the servants in the East Courtyard first!"

Uncle Hua is the steward of the Marquis's mansion. He is a fat white man with slightly shaggy eyebrows. His round face is embedded with a pair of shrewd eyes. When he smiles, there is a dimple on his right cheek, which makes him quite likable!

Manager Hua gathered the people in an orderly manner, then stood aside, looking at the little boy he had watched grow up, thinking to himself:

Young Master, are you serious? Well, it should have been done long ago, otherwise the servants in the mansion would be bullying the master!

The kid on the steps was looking at everyone sinisterly and said in a cold voice:

"Weiliang, lock up the thirty people separately first!"

Weiliang responded and pointed out fifteen men and fifteen women, and locked them up in the servants' room one by one!

When he came back to report, he heard his master whisper a few words, nodded, and hurried away with his men!

An hour later, the thirty people were brought back and stood in separate places. Some had flickering eyes, while others looked dejected!

Soon, another thirty people were taken away! When these thirty people came back, it was already noon!

Su Qingyan and others were getting anxious. Only Qingling was guarding her, and the rest of the people in the yard were called to the front yard!

Just when he was about to send Qingling to the front yard to check, he heard a servant knocking on the door outside the yard. When Qingling went out to check, she came back with a food box!

"Miss, the Second Master sent someone to deliver lunch. He said things are still being processed, so please eat some!"

Su Qingyan frowned: "Why did Second Brother go to such great lengths this time? It doesn't seem like this was his idea!"

Jingling said as she took out the dishes:

"Perhaps this incident has alerted the Second Master. He is afraid that the young lady will be implicated, so he decided to punish her thoroughly. It should be to kill the chicken to scare the monkey!"

Su Qingyan thought about it and realized that what she usually did was neither obvious nor blatant, so the things she did should not be exposed!

My second brother loves me so much that he must be feeling sorry for me, so he is looking for excuses to punish some people and support his sister!

Thinking this way, I no longer have any doubts and can eat with peace of mind!

The second master of the Marquis's Mansion spent a whole day on this. When it was dark, he brought over a few pieces of paper and read them out one by one!

"Qiuhua, as a servant in the master's yard, you have ruined the family tradition and secretly had sex with Qingrong. You will each be beaten with thirty boards and become husband and wife. If you survive, you will be sent to Qiuyue Villa!"

……

"Wei Niu Wa, as a guard, you secretly disclosed the master's information and made a profit. It is no longer suitable for you to stay. You will find the accountant to settle the bill and leave..."

……

"Lock up the rest first, and find a human trafficker to sell them off tomorrow morning!"

When Su Qingyan learned the result, she was secretly shocked!

I never thought that my second brother would use this method. He would go to each room and report one person first, then tell them about his own mistakes. If the report is proven to be true, he would be punished according to the severity of his own complaint!

In this way, everyone felt that even if they didn't say anything, someone would report them, so they just confessed everything they knew!

At the end of the day, they caught more than forty people. Not only did they clear up the bad habits, but they also eliminated all the secret agents in the East Courtyard!

Su Qingyan was so angry that she fell backwards, but she still had to go to her second brother and act pitiful!

“Second brother, it’s all because of Yan’er’s poor vision that I didn’t realize that these people are not good people… Yan’er… Yan’er is ashamed of the trust of our father and mother… Wuuwuwu…”

If Su Lijie had five points of hope for Su Qingyan before, now he only has two points!

A large number of those who were punished were bought back from outside after the younger sister disposed of the original servants. It can be said that without exception, they had faults of one kind or another!

It just so happens that those families have far fewer problems with having children.

And all the problematic servants she bought were on the list sent back by her eldest sister!

"Yan'er, since ancient times, there is a saying that you can know a person's face but not his heart. It is difficult to draw a person's bones even if you draw his skin. You don't know what these people are like in their bones. Don't blame yourself!"

Su Qingyan felt that what her second brother said today was a bit harsh. Could it be that her second brother discovered something?

Looking again, my second brother was no different from usual. Maybe I was overthinking it!

Qiuhua and Qingrong were beaten with thirty sticks this afternoon. Their lives were almost gone. After being beaten, they were thrown into a carriage and sent to Qiuyue Villa!

She didn't even go out of the courtyard, but just let Qingling go in secretly to take a look and put some silver!

Qingling said Qingrong was still unconscious in the carriage, and she didn't know if she could survive. She stuffed the purse containing money into her sleeve!

Su Qingyan was extremely angry, but she couldn't vent it!

My second brother said that he would help pick some people and send them over tomorrow. Now I can’t even say anything against it. I can only take it one step at a time!

The brat in Butler Hua's eyes was sitting in front of him:

"Huahua, you are not doing your job as a housekeeper. Why don't you go to the farm and plant a few acres of land?"

Hua Guanjia's fat face twisted up, and his eyes turned into tadpole shapes:

"My dear little master, I can't bear to leave you! I was indeed wrong about the incident at the Marquis' Mansion... But from now on, I will do my best to do things!"

Little boy: "Huahua, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you old fox are getting more compassionate as you get older!"

Old Fox: "After this incident, I will definitely regain the decisiveness of my youth and never let such a shameful thing happen to our mansion again!"

"But how do we arrange for the young lady tomorrow?"

Su Lijie was in a dilemma. There was a first-class maid missing, two second-class maids, and two third-class maids. It was difficult to deal with so many people at once!

After thinking hard for a while, he finally said to Mr. Hua:

"Huahua... tomorrow you go to the pawnbroker in person to buy someone... like this..."

The two of them whispered for a while before dispersing!

After Manager Hua left, Su Lijie lay back on the big bed, and exclaimed "Ouch!" in comfort!

"It's more tiring than fighting in the training grounds!"

Weiliang laughed, stretched his neck and asked:

"Master, what did you just say to Hua Zongguan?"

Su Lijie squinted at him: "Put away your curiosity... Haven't you heard that curiosity kills the cat?"

Weiliang curled his lips: Humph, if you don’t want to tell me, then don’t tell me. I don’t want to hear it!

In fact, he was just afraid that the newly bought maid would be bribed again!

His eldest sister reminded him that if he bought a servant again, he must keep the indenture of the servant in his own hands to avoid being taken advantage of by others!

Su Lijie told the flower manager that before the buyers sent the flowers to the young lady, they must remind them:

"The indenture is in Second Master's hands. Second Master is your master. Your life is in Second Master's hands. Don't do anything to betray your master!"
