Reborn as a Mad Dog from a Noble Family
Chapter 15: Confessions of a Little Maid (Part )
My name is Meimi, I am sixteen years old and was born in a poor civilian family. I have a younger brother and a younger sister. They are both very sensible and can help with housework at a young age, which reduces a lot of burden for the family.
However, this alone cannot solve the problem of food and clothing.
We live under a hierarchical system. As the lowest and most ordinary civilians, we are exploited to varying degrees every day.
Both my father and mother have stable jobs, but the pay is not high and the work is very tiring. They often leave early and come back late, bringing back materials for work and working all night. I always hear some strange words from them, such as newborn registration fees, living expenses, viewing fees, transaction taxes, air taxes, etc.
I think if it weren't for these extra expenses, my family would be much richer than it is now.
At least I don't have to wear these patched old clothes anymore.
We live in a small town between Wangcheng District and the suburbs. The permanent population is small and the population is highly mobile, so the consumption level is not very high. But something seems to have happened recently. The prices in the town have suddenly skyrocketed. The money that was originally enough for us to have a full meal can only buy two loaves of bread.
Looking at my younger brother and sister’s increasingly thin faces, I made a decision without telling my parents.
Where can I make big money?
The answer is Wangcheng District.
however--
I deliberately wore the cleanest clothes I owned, went in with confidence, and came out with a dejected look.
I went to every possible place in Wangcheng District: bakeries, clothing stores, snack stands, jewelry stores, etc., but their clerks just looked at me and chased me out like a homeless person.
Am I wearing shabby clothes? Do I smell bad?
Well, I know my own limitations. What can I do to deserve their boss to pay me a salary?
After all, in the eyes of the public, my appearance is ordinary. Compared with the elites who graduated from college, my mind is not as smart as before. I don't have a strong body like my father, nor do I have dexterous hands like my mother.
When the sun set, I was so hungry that my eyes were dizzy and my body was weak, having not eaten all day. I was about to fall to the ground after walking a few steps.
I won’t starve to death on the street, will I?
I can easily tell that I must be in a very awkward state. Passersby would avoid me and call patrolling soldiers to drag me away. Haha, the way things were going to turn out was definitely what I expected.
At this moment, a plain skirt appeared in front of me. Then, a strong milky aroma entered my nose. It was very similar to the smell I smelled in the bakery, but in comparison, this aroma was more advanced, clear and delicate, without the slightest stickiness.
At that moment my saliva was about to flow out.
In order to make myself look normal, I swallowed hard.
[Kid, are you okay?]
I raised my head with difficulty, and then I stopped breathing because I was too shocked.
Is this a real person? I began to doubt my eyes.
Her fair skin looked smooth and shiny against the backdrop of the dusk, and the red glow on her soft, bright red hair was like the tail feathers of a firebird that had been reborn, or the everlasting lights of a festival. Her captivating blue eyes looked at me gently, and her long, thick eyelashes fluttered up and down as her eyelids opened and closed, making my heart itch.
I cannot find more delicate words to describe this person's beauty, and this is the first time I feel that I need to learn more.
The sound of my strong heartbeat echoed in my ears, boom, boom, boom. I suddenly felt a little ashamed.
[I, I'm fine, thank you.]
I scrambled to free the hem of my clothes that was pressed under my legs and tried to get up with all my strength. However, I failed after trying several times.
——GuluGulu.
It's so shameful and terrible.
I lowered my head to hide my blushing face, and complained about my uncooperative stomach.
[Are you looking for a job?]
This soft voice instantly calmed my restless mood. It turned out that the red-haired lady had not left yet.
[Yes, I want to make money as soon as possible to support my family.]
Faced with the temptation of food and sex, I told the truth.
[You look underage.] This time the one who spoke was the woman standing behind the red-haired lady, dressed in the same simple and plain clothes, with a capable look. [If the store owner is found to have employed child labor, he will be severely punished.]
[I just celebrated my sixteenth birthday the day before yesterday, and I have become an adult.]
I'm really sorry that I stunted my growth because I ate too little. I felt the gazes of passers-by and glared back in dissatisfaction.
The red-haired lady thought for a moment, then smiled and asked me: [So...are you interested in the job of a maid?]
[Madam?] The capable woman was a little surprised and seemed to be worried about something.
[Interested! I am very interested!]
Meeting a noble person in difficult times is a scene that only appears in dreams. I was so excited that I was shaking all over, and I didn't want to lose this precious opportunity.
My mother told me that being a servant in a noble family was a fateful decision. If you encounter an unreasonable and cruel noble, they will not care about the law of punishment, ignore the nature of servants as "independent people", and will beat and scold them at will, and torture them in endless ways.
On the contrary, if you work for a noble who is close to the people, your life will be easy.
[Eat slowly, don't be anxious, I'll be waiting for you.]
As I took the milky bread handed to me by the red-haired lady, my intuition became stronger.
I will be the latter.
Bringing me back means... not only will I be provided with food and lodging, but I will also be paid? That's great!
The daily routine of a maid is probably to clean the house, wash clothes, serve tea and water, etc., right?
What are the lady's family like? I wish they were as friendly as she is.
When I jumped off the carriage and looked at the majestic and imposing castle in front of me, the random thoughts in my mind disappeared instantly.
Wow! Even a commoner like me who lives in a small suburban town knows that this is Fort McIntosh!
The story of Mackintosh is well known in Renekton, and wandering bards have composed a ballad to tell of their heroic deeds, mentioning this weathered building.
The three most obvious features are the cross-sword shape, the white roof and grey bricks, and the brilliant golden coat of arms hanging on the main entrance.
At this moment, I suddenly remembered that the red-haired lady was called "Madam", so she must be the miracle lady who conquered the cold-hearted Marquis Mackintosh, Winry Bistall? !
The rumors turned out to be true! I looked at the gentle and elegant lady with my peripheral vision, and felt that she exuded holy light in every move she made.
After entering Fort McIntosh, I took a rare clean shower, changed into a black and white maid's dress, and received the discipline of the senior waiter together with a few newcomers.
Sitting at a simple wooden table, I used up all the words I knew to write a not-so-beautiful letter and sent it home. Life after that was just as I imagined, easy and stable.
During this period, I worked hard to build good relationships with the lower-level maids, took the initiative to take on extra work, and always stayed energetic.
It wasn't long before I began to blend into their little group. In private conversations, I found that the subject they talked about most was the Marquis's four children.
The most popular one is the young master, Arthurs Mackintosh, who has an angelic face, a straightforward and cheerful personality, and a talent that is one in a million. He is the darling of the entire Marquis's family.
The eldest son, Frohn Mackintosh, was handsome and calm, and was known as a rare academic genius in a century. He graduated from the Royal College in just two years. Later, with the support of his family, he had an exclusive research room to undertake various research projects of the college.
Although Miss Euphemia Mackintosh is not yet old enough to enter the social world, she is well-known in the aristocratic circle for her exquisite appearance, noble and elegant temperament, and outstanding literary talent. She never interacts with other aristocratic ladies and rarely goes out, which adds a bit of mystery to her.
Unlike the three who received positive reviews, the second young master's nickname "Mad Dog" spread almost throughout the kingdom.
The second young master Moshe and the eldest young master Froen are brothers. The Marquis's ex-wife passed away after giving birth to him. He has an ordinary appearance and a dull mind, neither like his father nor his mother. With dark black hair and light brown eyes, he is inconspicuous even among ordinary people.
Being ignorant and idle are not characteristics unique to "Mad Dog". What really contributed to this title is Mo Xie's fickle personality and brutal and violent behavior.
I couldn't help but recall the first time I saw him.
