The voices of questioning and questioning came and went, but she still looked down at me, looked down and stared at me for a long time, her eyes were focused, and she seemed to be trying to figure out what I was going to say, what I was thinking, and the whole person I was.I try to let go of my thoughts as much as possible, and look back without distraction, so that she can't see anything.

"So what?" She finally withdrew her nervous gaze, picked up the tea bowl in hand, and said while playing with the tea lid.

Seeing that she replied in a good mood, her subordinates shut up.

"My lady suffered from a strange disease when she was young. When she got sick, her face was covered with red rashes and high fever. Fortunately, an eminent monk passed by the house that day, and he did it to drive away the evil spirits. He gave a magic pill to cure the disease. But the monk said, This elixir is only effective for virgins. When the lady reaches the age of marriage, she needs to take another pill with her husband's family to ensure that nothing will happen in the future. But in the past, only two pills were made according to the prescription, one pill It belongs to the young lady, and the other pill was given to the third young master of the Wang family to take it a few days ago. If the master didn’t take the pill today, if he really married my young lady, something bad might happen.” I made up a story and returned it. The face is not red and the heart is not beating, because the kindness of this girl has the ability to deceive others, even if the story is full of loopholes.

"Oh? Then you mean..."

"It so happens that I have seen this prescription before. It needs four kinds of flowers and trees: hibiscus, lily, magnolia, and peony. Take the root of the first year, the leaves of the next year, the petals of the third year, and the pollen of the fourth year. Finely grind and mix. You can make pills with honeysuckle honey." I secretly thought about what it would look like if it was really made, and whether it would eat dead people.But no matter how you do it, it seems to be a very fragrant thing, maybe it will be delicious.But having said that, does this woman believe it or not?Why are you just staring and not talking!

"Okay, let's trust you for now." When she said this, I was relieved.The things I talked about are not so easy to collect. Even if it is a professional gardener, if it is not planted by himself, it is not easy to distinguish the year of these flowers and trees. Have a good time.

"But even though you can't share the same room, it doesn't hinder the marriage." She knocked the tea bowl on the table, got up and announced to the crowd again, "We will get married tomorrow", and then walked away.

After a long, long time, I still don't understand. I often asked Xia why he insisted on marrying the second lady.It was a long, long time later that she told me that Liu Qingyan had the same eyes as that person, moist, bright and with a soft light.

Liu Qingyan and I were sent to the inn by two little girls. Naturally, the environment cannot be compared with the Liu Mansion, but it is many times better than the treatment of prisoners in the middle class.An independent small building, simple but clean, there is a not-so-big yard outside the door, with some flowers and plants that cannot be named, but it is full of vitality. coax away.

The little girls fetched water, prepared face towels, and returned the hair oil box I had brought so desperately, and then obediently stood outside the door.They told me that one of them was called Shuangmei and the other was called Honggu, and they lived in the next room. When they were young, their hometown was hit by a drought, and they became beggars.They also told me that when Liu Qingyan married into the courtyard of the head of the family tomorrow, this place will be for me to live in, and I will go out to serve in the morning and return to the house at sunset, and what's more, the door must be locked at night.I kept these words in my heart, but my heart was full and swelled: "Is this girl going to spend her whole life in vain among the wolves!"

Back in the house, Liu Qingyan had already taken off her hijab, and the hijab was held in her hand, the expensive and soft fabric was wrinkled and wrinkled.I walked over, took off her phoenix crown, untied her bun, and combed her black hair slowly.She looked at me in the mirror, her eyes were red: "Pan Niang, fortunately, I have you."

I gently stroked her hair, wondering if there was another line to continue this topic without being so sad.

"But tomorrow, I'm still scared." She continued.

"I understand you, Second Miss." We looked at each other through the mirror, throwing away the relationship between master and servant, and everything became more natural.

"Don't worry about marrying the head of the family, she is a woman after all, and she won't touch you for the time being..." I looked at her blushing face due to shyness, and suddenly remembered that if it wasn't for this accident, this woman would have transformed into a woman tonight. Or a charming woman or a virtuous and virtuous woman.Sure enough, good fortune tricks people, maybe all the disharmonious things should have some twists and turns to be reasonable.

"One day she really made your nonsense pills, if Zai'an and parents still didn't come to rescue us... how could it be good?" She frowned, her appearance became more and more delicate.

"Hehe~ If my uncle is so ruthless and ungrateful, Second Miss might as well try to like the King of the Mountain." Recalling the inexplicably reassuring aura of that woman when we first met, I smiled and said, "Perhaps women are more reliable than men. "

☆, 5 married

Early in the morning, Shuangmei Honggu and I helped Liu Qingyan, who had not slept all night, to clean and tidy up.The clothes are yesterday's clothes, and the pearls on the phoenix crown are still bright, but things are different, and she is forced to change the groom.

I smeared orchid-scented hair oil on her, tied up her hair in a different bun from yesterday, painted her eyebrows and lips, and applied a thin layer of makeup. Sorrow and sorrow.

I held her chin in one hand, and used my thumb to smudge away two smears of pink rouge on her cheeks.I asked her, "Second Miss, are you still afraid?"

She looked at me, smiled, and shook her head.

I finished her makeup for her, asked Shuangmei to hand over her head, and continued: "From now on, you will have to live there, under the same roof as her. As for how to deal with it, I must know better than me. Second Miss, everything needs to be done." endure."

"Well, I understand." She held my hand and said, "You have to be careful, Panniang. There are many thieves in the village. After today, I still have the protection of the head wife. Others can't do anything to me, but you……"

I chuckled: "Second Miss, don't worry about me. Just remember that when we go out in the future, just help me open an oil shop."

"Okay. It's a word."

I covered her with a hijab and led her out of the room.The horoscope firecrackers were lit in the yard, crackling and singing non-stop, and the little chickens ran around in shock.The yard was already full of people, there were no matchmakers, no suona team, not even the groom's official who was supposed to come to welcome the bride.The sedan chair was the one that was carried up the mountain yesterday, and it seemed that there were four people instead of eight. Only these few people wore clothes of various colors without any particular attention, except that there was no red!

Perhaps the bandit den has its own set of rules, or maybe getting married, for this group of bandits, is just that so-and-so has an extra woman, and the big guys take the opportunity to eat a meal of wine and meat, and bond with brothers at the dinner table. This so-and-so is the bandit leader of the village, and the details of getting married are still mediocre.

Liu Qingyan was ushered into the sedan chair, and Sister Shuang and I followed beside the sedan chair.After a symbolic walk around the stockade, I realized that the stockade was simply too big.I never imagined that Baishui Mountain could accommodate so many houses and so many people in a square inch of land. I always felt that this mountain was suspicious, but I couldn't explain why.

The stockade is mostly houses, and it is divided by four halls of heaven, earth, and yellow, each occupying one side in the southeast, northwest, leaving only the huge courtyard in the middle as the residence of the head.I asked Shuangmei, which church she was from.She told me that she belongs to the Dizitang, and the place arranged for each newcomer is different.But if the head of the family is happy, he will be lucky enough to leave the four halls and live in the courtyard in the middle, to serve the head of the family exclusively, and no longer need to be sent by others.I asked her which church I belonged to, she thought for a while, and said that I was from a local church like her, after all, we both lived under the south wall of the village.

Huh?Didn't you tell me to go up the mountain to serve the second lady?The fellow who co-authored had forgotten all about it.Only then did I realize that after today, it might be difficult for me and Liu Qingyan to meet again.She was detained by the central government, and I was serving in the local government, so there was no one to take care of each other.Oh, if she is capable enough to train the female bandit leader to be obedient, and then transfer me to comb her hair, maybe there is still some hope in this day.

Before noon, he had already made a big detour and arrived at the site of the legendary female bandit leader.She was standing in front of the door, dressed like a generous woman.The hair is lightly curled up, the sword is worn around the waist, the eyes are moist, the clothes are fluttering, and the clothes are fluttering, and the appearance is slim and free, it seems that the banditry has been washed away, and it has the smell of a fairy.This appearance, doesn't look like someone who will swear in the next second...

"Damn it, I'm dying!" She glanced at us, frowning tightly, as if the boss felt sorry for his wages when he saw a late employee.She said: "Hurry up and send the madam into the new house, and the rest of you, go in and drink!" After saying that, she left the sedan chair and the bride, and stepped into the threshold without hesitation.

"Eh? Don't you even worship heaven and earth?" I turned my head and asked the young man in blue who was carrying the sedan chair.The young man was naturally proud: "Our Baishui village has always been informal, you bitch will understand in the future."

The corner of my mouth twitched, the urge to strangle him flowed out like money.

Supporting Liu Qingyan, she followed the leading servant girl into the courtyard.The yard is not small, and there are nine houses, one of which is particularly grand, so that people can tell at a glance who the owner of this house is.Look at the carved beams and painted pillars, which are painted with pictures of beauties playing butterflies, and then look at the green tiles and vermilion tiles, which are gorgeous and ethereal.The wooden buildings are majestic and the curtains are graceful. This is not like a broken cottage where thieves live. If you don't know it, you must think it is a small summer house built by a big family in the countryside.

As Mrs. Yazhai, Liu Qingyan naturally wanted to live in that woman's building.The wedding room is newly tidied up, it was originally an empty room, and I don't know how long it has been empty.Honggu told me secretly: "This is where the last lady lived. Two years ago, she had an affair with a man and was thrown into a kiln down the mountain by the owner. It happened ten years ago, she died of illness, it is said that she is so beautiful that no one can move her eyes away when she sees it."

I'm dubious about this... ten years ago?Look at that woman is only 25 or [-] years old, and her wife died ten years ago. How can she learn how to find a woman to marry a wife at a young age?Who will believe it!I saw that Honggu was still young, so she believed rumors because of hearsay, but no matter how you listen to other people's stories, you should not forget common sense, there is no principle at all to believe what you say.

I looked at the second young lady who was sitting quietly on the edge of the bed. I didn't continue the topic of one wife who died and then sold one wife. Instead, I asked a question that I had neglected for a long time: "You are in charge...she is What's your name?" I recalled that when I was sitting in the bush with her yesterday, she asked me what my name was, and I answered her, but she didn't reciprocate.

"Oh, so you don't know the name of our head! Then you have to remember it, her name is Chang Wenxia."

"Often asked Xia?" This little fresh name really didn't fit her temperament. "Then how is she usually?"

Hong Gu blinked at me blankly and said, "Good man."

"Okay girl, I have reservations about all the information you provide."

At noon, the outside was still lively, and the voices of toasting and congratulations came and went, all of them were full of spirit and loud.Someone came in with food, and I served Liu Qingyan to eat some light vegetables, and then went to the kitchen with the rest of the staff to eat a big pot meal.

There is a cook and a cook in the kitchen, a couple, their cooking skills are better than those of the chefs in the Liu Mansion. Although they are not as exquisite and beautiful as those, the taste is real.I met a lot of people at the dinner table, some of them were sweeping wine, some of them were singing and dancing, although I don't work in this yard, and maybe one day in the not-too-distant future, that Liu Yuanwai who had spent all his money and gathered people to call him Baishuizhai came to rescue Liu Qingyan and took me away by the way, but right now, it will do no harm to me or Liu Qingyan to make friends with them.

After a long afternoon, I don't understand why this group of people can eat endlessly after exhausting the two great masters of the kitchen.Seeing the sunset and the weary birds returning to their nests, it seemed as if a little girl was ushering in the other side. Not to mention the excitement, each of them raised their voices several degrees.From time to time, there are a few poor people who run to the corner to vomit, and then they are laughed at by others, "Look at you, what are you doing alive like a bear, it's really useless to follow the boss!"

When it was completely dark and the red lanterns were lit up under the eaves, today's irresponsible protagonist finally came here cursing under the push and push of everyone: "You bunch of grandchildren are good enough, that's all!" I just drink like a dog. I want you to help me? Go on your own way and don't fall like a dog when it gets dark."

A few men around her were blushing, smiling and hiccupping, their legs couldn't move easily, and they had to argue about "Sajia is not drunk, Zajia is not drunk, go and love Meijiao Niang, head home" or something.

Chang Wenxia dismissed the crowd with a few more vicious words, and walked towards the new house alone.I saw that her expression was clear and her steps were steady, but when she opened her mouth, she had a strong breath like being thrown into a wine tank. I couldn't help but admire her perverted drinking capacity.

"Oh, it's you, Chu Panniang." She leaned closer to me, speaking as if my presence here was a surprise to her.

"Isn't it the head of the house, thanks to you still remember my name."

"I don't just remember your name." She leaned close to my hair and sniffed, and said, "I still remember the scent of flowers on your body."

This guy is actually drunk! ! !What tricks are you doing! ! !I took a step back and pulled out a safe distance, so as to avoid her strong smell of alcohol.She didn't care about it either, she just said: "Why are you standing still! Why don't you open the door for me?"

I gently pushed open the door, and couldn't help but say, "You'd better remember what I said!"

She turned her head, raised her eyebrows slightly, and curled the corners of her mouth slightly, showing a contemptuous expression: "I'll take the story you made up as the truth for now."

☆, 6 arrangements

It turned out that Chang Wenxia didn't believe the panic she told me at all. Fortunately, I was complacent about successfully deceiving a bunch of bandits.Thinking about it now, how could she allow me to lie to her, and how could she pretend to believe what I said?I always feel that there is an ulterior conspiracy in it.

All the maids and I followed Chang Wenxia into the room.They brought the scales and the wine together and presented them one by one, while I stood aside and stared at her to see if she had any unruly behavior.In fact, for Liu Qingyan, I have two parts of sincerity and eight parts of selfishness.After all, if she has a bad life, I will not be alone.I always think about freedom and a life where no one oppresses me, but if I want to leave the land of right and wrong completely, I can only be attached to her.

"Hehe, although we can only be a nominal couple for the time being..." Chang Wenxia glanced at me, as if to show that she was speaking to me: "But you still have to drink the wedding wine." As she spoke, she never He took two wine cups from the tray, handed one to Liu Qingyan, and held the other in his hand.

Liu Qingyan took the wine cup, looked at the clear and transparent liquid in the cup, showed some hesitation on her face, but after a moment, she still pursed her lips, looked up and stared at herself with a gentle smile Xia looked at each other, and then they both folded their arms and drank.Looking at such a scene, I always feel weird, why two women who can't say that they love each other or even understand each other can be together so easily, and even they can't even be close to each other.

After Liu Qingyan drank the wine, she immediately lowered her head, as if a layer of rouge had been applied to her cheeks, red and delicate.I didn't miss the bitter expression on her frown when she exchanged glasses. It turned out that she was not good at drinking, and I had never heard of it.

"Go down, I will rest with my wife tonight."

I left behind the crowd, and looked back worriedly.She got up and looked back at me while taking off her clothes, and said lightly: "I didn't see you rushing forward yesterday, but now you are acting like a deputy protector who is worried, Chu Panniang, you are really cunning."

I was speechless after being scolded by her. Although it was true, I still couldn't bear the unhappiness in my heart!You are cunning!Your eight generations of ancestors are all cunning!

"Don't worry, if two women sleep together, they can do anything or nothing. If you don't believe it, you can sleep with me someday."

"Who wants to sleep with you! I'm afraid that if you sleep next to me, I can't help but crush you to death!" I grabbed the doorknob and was about to close the door and leave, when I suddenly remembered something, and turned around reluctantly Question: "By the way, where will I go to work tomorrow? You clearly said that you would let me take care of my second lady. Why did you arrange a place for me in Dizitang?"

She had already taken off only her middle clothes, and after she finished she went to take off Liu Qingyan, who was dazed by a glass of white wine, without looking at me, and said: "You stay in the Dizitang for a while, tomorrow Meet the hall master and deputy hall master, let them arrange a job for you, and get to know more people, and learn the rules of the village."

What rules are easy to learn in a ruined village, shouldn't the rules of the village be that there are no rules?I complained secretly in my heart, and her cold words came from my ears: "Also, since you have become a member of my Baishui Village, you have to call Liu Qingyan Ma'am. Well, you should go down, this village mainly rests. "As she said, she lifted the quilt and hugged Liu Qingyan, rolled into the quilt, leaving only the back of her head with long hair, and told me that you are no longer welcome in this house, go away.

I resentfully stepped out of the threshold, sighed quietly, and closed the door.As soon as the door was closed, all the lights in the room were completely extinguished. I remembered that there were at least seven or eight candles, big and small.Really weird and evil.

In the early morning of the second day, the eastern sky was only a little pale, and there was a knock on the door of my hut.Without thinking about it, he knew that it should be Shuangmei Honggu.

"Sister Panniang, it's time to get up. I'm going to have breakfast in a while, get my badge, and then go to the local pavilion to meet the hall master."

"Oh, wait for me."

"Hurry up, there's nothing left to eat when it's late."

I struggled to get out of the bed, shivering uncontrollably from the cold. Since Liu Qingyan married this yard yesterday morning, the stove in the house has been removed, and the quilt has not thickened, and it has hardly changed. Human nature is outrageous.Combing hair, washing face, and dressing up, I always feel that seeing this Fangtang master is more nervous than seeing the bandit leader Xia Na often.

I opened the door, only to see Hong Gu standing by the door rubbing her hands and exhaling. Seeing me coming out, she immediately took my arm and walked out of the yard: "Sister Shuang is going to the dining hall to grab breakfast first. We can go to the dining room later." Eat ready-made ones. After eating, go to Mr. Zhang and ask him to write you a badge. Let me tell you, Mr. Zhang is the best-looking handwriting in our village except for the master. He used to teach private schools for three years. The ex-daughter was snatched away by the magistrate at that time, and he was beaten severely by the yamen servants and thrown into the forest. That day when the head of the family came back from robbery, he met him on the road and wanted to take refuge. The head of the village felt that the village should also There was a gentleman who taught the youngsters culture, so as to save them from being ignorant and embarrassing for half a robbery, so Mr. Zhang agreed to sneak into the magistrate's house alone and stole her daughter back, and took her up the mountain together."

"Huh? Did you bring her daughter back?" I couldn't help squinting, it really was her style, and I was afraid I wanted to keep it for myself because I saw the girl's good looks.

"Isn't it?" Hong Gu folded her hands together and opened her eyes wide at me, her envy was beyond words: "You don't know, Zhang Ling'er, Mr. Zhang's daughter, has learned to read and write very early. Zhang Ling'er was very pleased to see her, so he promoted Zhang Ling'er from Xuanzitang to her courtyard, and asked her to read a poem on weekdays, or play two games of chess when she was bored. Anyway, she was very leisurely and comfortable. "

"I hear what you mean, the head of the family really likes her? Why don't you marry her?" A robber who listens to poetry and plays Go and raises a talented girl by his side, I rolled my eyes cutely, is this a cultural female hooligan?

Hong Gu put away her longing little eyes, sighed and said, "I heard that Zhang Ling'er likes the master very much. One is her savior, and the other is that she doesn't see her when she looks up and looks down. It's inevitable that she often gets together. I was fascinated by the beauty of the head, and then I knew that the head of the family liked a woman, so I didn’t hurry to give my heart. Pity our head didn’t think so. We all thought that the head of the house would marry Zhang Ling’er sooner or later, but we didn’t want to go down the mountain and snatch it. One of them got married without even saying a word, alas, she was so sad."

"Then tell me, is it Zhang Ling'er who is prettier or our current wife?"

"This... I can't tell. Each has its own merits. Anyway, Zhang Ling'er is quite beautiful, how can I make the magistrate's son fall in love?"

I should have often asked Xia that she is extremely casual in dealing with marriage and relationship, but she has not yet reached the point of marrying a beautiful woman, so what kind of psychological process did she go through when she snatched Liu Qingyan, or was it just nothing at all? Didn't even want to come by feeling?I really can't figure it out.

We got to know more about the situation in the village in a non-salty way, and our extremely confident footsteps finally brought us to the dining hall.This canteen is big, but it is really simple.It is estimated that because it is a place for servants to eat, it should be able to accommodate dozens of people.In the middle of the dining hall is a long table, which is dim and dilapidated, and there are a series of benches on the left and right, full of people.Sister Shuang took a seat for us, one on her left and one on her right, both with porridge, deep-fried dough sticks and pickled vegetable pancakes.We went to sit down, picked up the chopsticks and started.When the man sitting across from me saw me, he had a feigned surprise on his face: "Yo! Isn't this Madam's maid? Why did she arrange it in our hall?"

I raised my eyes from my porridge wrist to look at this skinny man who was full of anger and looked good at abandoning his wife and children, wondering whether I should talk to him or not.

"Second brother Mao, after all, we are brothers and sisters of our cousin, don't tease other girls." The man next door was eight feet tall, but with a somewhat handsome face, answered the words for me and rescued me, which made the girl very moved.

"Hey, I didn't tease her. Besides, girls are just for teasing, don't you think so, Sister Shuang? Huh?" He glanced at Sister Shuang lewdly, and added The word "Huh?" is too long.

Sister Shuang drank the porridge and almost coughed when she heard what he said, so she took out a handkerchief and wiped her mouth, then said angrily, "Hmph! I'm going to complain to Mrs. Mao! Let's see if she doesn't chase you with a rolling pin tonight." The south wall hits the north wall."

Everyone couldn't stop laughing when they heard this, Second Brother Mao couldn't hold back his face, but he had no choice but to be poked in a sore spot, so he slapped the table and shouted: "What are you laughing at!" The next half of the meat buns came out of the dining hall.

After coming out of the dining hall, we went to Mr. Zhang.Being bored on the road, it is inevitable to gossip again.

"Sister Panniang, do you know who that person was sitting next to you just now?" Sister Shuang asked me furtively first.

"That tall person just now?" Seeing her nodding, I continued, "How would I know?"

"Let me tell you, his name is Wu Yixing. He is handsome, has a good temper, and fights fiercely. It is said that he is educated. Many girls in the village like her!" Hong Gu replied.

"Oh, people are very nice." I remembered what the eight-foot man had just said to save me, and I seemed to understand: "It turns out that the girls in the village also like good people." I thought they all regarded evil as good , the attitude towards Chang Wenxia is the best example.

"Oh, sister Panniang, what are you talking about? Is it possible that you still like that second brother Mao?" Sister Shuang stomped her feet and pretended to be angry, but suddenly remembered something, stopped her movements, and whispered in my ear again, saying: "Look, I forgot to be serious. I just want to tell you that Brother Yi Xing kept looking at us when we were having breakfast just now. I thought he was looking at me. I was nervous for a long time, so I took another look at it." Ah, so I was looking at you."

"Huh?..." Is the eight-foot man blind?

"What, I'm serious, I think he has that intention for you. Ouch, I envy the dead. He has such good conditions, and there are few in the stockade."

I saw that Shuangmei was very cute when she was talking about it, so I couldn't help but pinch her cheek, and said: "Little girl bandit, sister loves you, can I give you this rare high-quality single young man? You have to grow up quickly." .” As he spoke, he glanced at the little bun on her chest.

"Ah! You're a rascal, a rascal, a rascal!" She hugged her chest and ran to Honggu's side, winking at me, "My Sister Shuang's heart is in charge...and so is her body...don't make any foolish decisions!"

Hello!How can I be as good as you guys?

☆, 7 errands

Mr. Zhang is teaching all the children in the village and those who want to read and write. It can't be said which church he belongs to, but he can't be counted as a person in the head courtyard.After all, if he were arranged at Chang Wenxia's place, it would be outrageous for a group of ignorant kids to come in and out from time to time during these three days.

Shuangmei Honggu and I came to the private school at the junction of Tianzitang and Huangzitang, just in time for the children to study in the morning.The sound of the book is bursting, and the recitation is "Dao can, Dao is not, and Hengdao. Mingke, Mingfei, Hengming." "Tao Te Ching"... I have listened to the teachers in the house teach those who are not right when I was young. The up-and-coming idiot young master can now recite a random sentence without thinking, even though the hair stylist who was born as a science student had no literary skills at all.

A dozen or twenty young children shook their heads and read earnestly. Mr. Zhang Huixu walked with the scrolls and knocked the heads of those lazy children.Honggu beckoned to him, meaning that she had brought a newcomer to write a badge, that Mr. Zhang calmly took a wooden plaque with a white string from the desk drawer, and took a pen brush from the pen holder. , dipped in the ink, then walked up to us and asked, "Dizitang? What's the name?"

I told him honestly: "Dizitang, Chu Panniang. It is clear Chu, hopeful Pan, and there is a mother character, you understand."

She raised her eyes to look at me, buried her head in writing down my affiliation and first and last name on the wooden sign, and asked casually, "Are you literate?"

"I know, I listened to it when I was young."

"Oh." He handed me the written waist card, and said, "Come to class when you are free." Holding a brush, he went back to the sound of books.

This girl is too lazy to read any books, it's useful.I imitated Shuangmei's wearing method and pinned the wooden plaque on my waist.In the upper right corner of the waist card is a word "land", in which it is written vertically:

Chu

Hope

Daughter

Huh?It doesn't look too ugly to hang up... In fact, I most hope that there will be a position at the top, like the majestic left protector and right protector, no matter what interesting titles such as mountain patrolling demon, it's a pity that I don't even know what jobs I can do. I don't know, if by accident I don't even catch a little hair comber and become a laundry woman, a dishwasher or a canteen aunt, it doesn't seem to have any face to pin it on my waist.

Then Shuangmei and Honggu took me to report to the leader.They told me: "Our hall master is called Situ Tong. He has a good temper. He is a bold person. He once led his brothers to rob Hutou Village in Linxian County, and knocked down the head of Hutou Village in Lin County with three punches and two kicks. He is a hero Brave. There is also a deputy head, named Lu Yinjin, who is the wife of the head, the only heroine in the village other than the head of the family. She used to be the daughter of the bodyguard's family, and she was very skilled. "

When I heard what they said, I couldn't help but a drop of cold sweat dripped down my back.Abandoning the dark and turning to the light, is it clear that you are abandoning the light and turning to the dark, okay?

"Oh, by the way, don't be nervous for a while. Every time a newcomer comes, we have to gather a crowd for a meeting to let everyone know you. Then you kneel down to the hall master and the deputy hall master to say hello, and then introduce yourself That's it. They'll give you a job, and we'll be family from now on."

"I still want to introduce myself? There are still people watching? Why didn't you say it earlier..."

---------------------------------- Worrying --------------- ------------------------

Turning and turning, we finally arrived at where the leaders were.But I saw a rather imposing wooden building standing in front of me, with a spacious door and high hanging beams.There is a plaque with red background and black characters on the door, and the words "local pavilion" are written on it.At that time, I thought that the weird name of this building was really suitable, but I learned from others later that it was originally paired with the other three pavilions.There is Tianyuan Pavilion in Tianzitang, Dizitang is the local pavilion, Xuanyun Pavilion in Xuanzitang, and Huangtu Pavilion in Huangzitang.It's a broken cottage, with so many tricks, I don't know what the author's intentions are.

As soon as we entered the door, we saw a group of unknown onlookers on both sides, and two great gods were sitting on the main seat in front of the hall.The two looked about 40 to [-] years old, the male was handsome, and the female...also handsome#¥%#¥%………Sitting side by side, there was a small tea table in between.I think they're the most couple-like couple I've ever met.

"Chu Panniang has met the hall master and deputy hall master, and wish you both good luck and peace." I bowed my knees to salute the two according to the lines I used to say when I was in Liu's house.

The hall master slightly raised his big hand and said, "Get up."

I got up and ignored the self-introduction I was told before. I always felt that it was extremely weird to say it now, so I simply stood up straight and stared and waited for them to ask.I will answer whatever you want to hear, how honest.

"Are you Chu Panniang?" The deputy hall master asked first, her voice was not as charming and gentle as the wives in Liu's residence, but it suited her temperament and dress of a martial artist.

"It's the villain." I respectfully replied.

"In the past, what was your position in Madam's natal family?" She asked again.

"A villain is not talented. He used to be a servant in Liu's mansion who only combed the hair of the wives and ladies. In his spare time, he also picked Baihua hair oil."

"Hair comber?" The deputy hall master asked suspiciously, as if he didn't understand why rich people want a full-time hair comber, but he didn't go into details, just said: "There are not so many women in Dizitang who want you to comb their hair, it's even more so." Not as delicate and exquisite as the big family at the foot of the mountain. Hmm..." She pondered for a while, and looked at the hall master: "Aside from combing hair, what else are you good at?"

Apart from combing my hair, I really can't tell what strengths I have... Frowning, it was the first time in my life that I stood quietly thinking about my own life value, and it was still in front of so many people.

"Well... my father is a gardener, so planting flowers and plants is not a problem for me."

"Hehe, girl, this Baishui village is on the mountain, and there are flowers and trees everywhere. It has been born and died for thousands of years, and it is still full of vitality. Why do you need a gardener?" The hall master stroked his mustache and smiled heartily. It doesn't mean to be sarcastic, which is really reassuring.

But... what else can this girl do? ? ?

"Forget it." The hall master saw me standing there thinking hard and didn't know when I was the leader, so he simply made a decision for me: "The dining hall is short of people recently, so you go there to help, wash the dishes and kill a chicken, it's nothing Hard work."

"Kill the chicken?" Kill the chicken!This girl has never done it! ! ! "That...uh..." I thought that besides combing hair and planting flowers, I must know something else, there must be: "Tang...Teacher, in fact, the villain has also learned some arithmetic." I don't think a village can When doing business, keeping accounts is nothing more than how much money is stolen, how much money is spent, how much money is left, no matter how many there are, it is not difficult.Although I can't do the job of beautifying others and pleasing myself, such as combing hair and protecting hair, I would rather use a brush to deal with numbers than kill chickens and wash vegetables. Anyway, in the distant past, people still studied science.

"Oh, you can do arithmetic." The hall master nodded, and smiled at the deputy hall master: "Sure enough, you are the maid of a rich family."

The deputy hall master also nodded to him, then gave orders and made a decision: "Since that's the case, Chu Panniang, go to the accountant tomorrow and ask Uncle Zhong in the accountant to test you. If he says you are competent, you will stay there in the future. , if he refuses, go to the dining hall again."

Does it depend on the Ming Dynasty whether to be a man with a pen or with a chicken knife?Today I realized that studying well is so important.

After seeing the leader, I have an afternoon off. I am in a particularly good mood.Just now I said that I can do arithmetic in front of so many people, and it aroused many people's interest. Now a group of aunts and girls surrounded me and kept saying, "Oh, Miss Chu, so you are actually a cultural person." , It's really amazing."
