Chapter 10 Concessions
Chapter 10 Concessions
It seems that since coming to the Yin family and becoming a maid, time has passed very long. Obviously it was just a time from day to night and then to day, but the water slave felt like he had experienced a reincarnation. I don't know that my queen mother on the other side of the Lechuan River may see me? When I fell into a coma a little bit, the water slave thought: If I met on the Huangquan Road, could the queen mother forgive herself?
Yin Luo had just entered the courtyard gate and saw a few slaves and maids surrounding something, "What's the matter?"
"Four ladies. When the slaves and maidservants saw her come in, they dispersed, and one of the maidservants said, "The slave fainted." β
Yin Luo stepped forward, and sure enough, she saw the water slave fainting on the ground with a gray face.
"What a pampered one. Yin Luo raised her foot and kicked it, and said with some annoyance, "Dragged out and sold, I don't want the dead people in my yard here to be seen as if I am cruel." β
"But now..."
"Yin Nong. Yin Luocui's eyebrows furrowed, "What do you want to say?"
"The slave doesn't dare. Yin Nong lowered his head and said in a low voice, "The slave just wants to be in a coma now, and I'm afraid that he won't be able to sell good money." β
Yin Luo snorted coldly: "Yin Nong, what do you mean by your words is that the fourth lady of my dignified Yin family will lack a few silver coins in exchange for this cheap maid?"
"That's not what slave means. β
"Then why don't you drag people out quickly?
The two slaves behind Yin Nong stepped forward, dragged the water slaves one after the other and walked out. The water slave's fingers moved, and he struggled invisibly for a moment, and finally slowly drooped down.
According to Yin Luo's statement, although he sold the person immediately, the two slaves who dragged the water slave out also knew that if he really dragged a half-dead person to the place where the slaves and maids traded, no one would pay to buy them, although Yin Luo said that he didn't care about how much silver he sold, but if he didn't bring back the silver money equivalent to the slaves and maids who were being sold, he was afraid that he would end up as a private servant girl, and he would not escape punishment at that time.
However, in the Yin family, because such situations are too frequent, there is such a conventional practice between slaves and maids:
The injured slaves and maids were first sent to the steward's office in charge of the sale of slaves and maids in the house, and the steward estimated the price according to the injured Yan zhΓ²ng Cheng dΓΉ and paid the money to let the slaves come back first, and then let the slaves and maids simply cultivate for a few days, and then send them out of the house for sale after waking up, and the steward earned the difference.
Now the two slaves who sent the water slaves out naturally did the same way, but when they left the Xuanluo Courtyard, they saw a few people coming from a distance. After seeing the person who came, the two hurriedly put the water slave on the ground, bowed their heads and saluted:
"The slave has seen Gorou-kun and Shichiro-kun!"
Yin Nuan's gaze swept over the people lying on the ground, and then walked over briskly as if she didn't see the two of them.
"Water slave?" Yin Nuan squatted down, carefully brushing the hair from the water slave's face, and then frowned and turned to the two and asked, "What's going on?"
"This ...... This is ......" Seeing that Yin Nuan's face was a little angry, the two replied tremblingly, "This is the maid in our yard, I heard that her name is called Water Slave." β
"Of course I know what her name is!" Yin Nuan was a little impatient, "I'm asking you why she is unconscious?"
"Slave...... The slave doesn't know. "Yin Luo has a large number of servants, and the slaves and maids around her are often replaced, and the two of them did not see it when they punished the water slaves yesterday, and they were already in a coma when they saw it today.
"Dr. Su. Yin Nuan suddenly called to the people who followed behind him, "I'm sorry for you to come and take a look." β
Then a gray-haired old man walked out of the crowd, and after cutting his pulse, he said to Yin Nuan, "Wulang-kun, don't worry! This girl should be suffering from a high fever caused by trauma, and there is no big problem!"
Yin Nuan breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and turned her head to ask the two of them, "Where do you want to go with the water slave?"
The two of them saw that although Yin Nuan was young, there was no trace of temperature on their faces at this time because of their anger, and they were both a little scared, and said cautiously:
"On the orders of the fourth lady, send this maid called the water slave to the place where the slave and maid are traded. β
"Sold?"
"Yes, yes. The two nodded busily.
Yin Nuan didn't speak again, and the bluestone-paved path was silent for a while.
"Brother?" Yin Ying, who had been following him, suddenly took two steps forward and shouted.
Yin Nuan's hands, which were almost sunk into his palms, slowly let go, and said:
"It's fine. β
Then he instructed someone to find a nearby room and send the water slave in to take care of him, and then turned to Yin Ying and said:
"Ah Ying, you go and talk to Xibin first, and I'll come over later. β
"Okay. Yin Ying nodded, and said, "Brother, let Doctor Su stay too." β
Yin Nuan thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's okay, the servant will go with him after the water slave is okay." β
Su Ulcer Doctor was originally arranged by Yin Ying and Yin Nuan to be with him when they were practicing martial arts, in order to prevent the two Xiao Langjun from being accidentally injured during the practice of martial arts. It's just that the water slave is in critical condition at this time, and it is indeed more convenient to keep an ulcer doctor by his side.
After Yin Ying left, Yin Nuan ordered a servant to lead Doctor Su to the place where the water slave was temporarily placed. Then he went to Yin Luo's residence.
A slave came in to report that when Yin Nuan arrived, Yin Luo was eating, and she was a little puzzled by the reason why Yin Nuan came, after all, she thought that she and Yin Nuan were two people who hated each other. Of course, killing a slave is nothing to Yin Luo, and she will not think that Yin Nuan is here to ask for an explanation for a slave.
"Fourth sister!"
"It's a rarity. Yin Luo asked without raising her head, "It's rare for you to come to my Xuanluo Academy, but what advice do you have?"
"I don't dare to advise. Yin Nuan said, "It's just that the servant passed by just now and saw two slaves carrying water slaves out to sell, I don't know what the fourth sister means?"
"Of course I meant that. Yin Luo was a little annoyed, "What, are you here to question me?" Yin Nuan, do you want to find out that the water slave is already the domestic servant of my Xuanluo Courtyard, don't I even have the right to buy and sell a slave maid?"
"The fourth sister naturally has this right. Yin Nuan said unhurriedly, "It's just that the fourth sister also has to understand that the water slave was still a maid in my yard the day before yesterday, and the fourth sister said that there were fewer people in the courtyard and wanted to come, but today she wanted to sell someone, and the servant had to speculate about the significance of the fourth sister's behavior." β
"Hmph!" Yin Luo slammed down the chopsticks, "You want to say that I deliberately targeted you?" Yin Nuan, are you here to threaten me?"
"Naturally, the servant didn't dare. Yin Nuan said, "I'm just here to ask what the fourth sister means, if you are really sure that you want to sell someone, please let me know first, and the servant can go and buy someone back." β
Yin Nuan's words made Yin Luo speechless, but if she really let Yin Nuan bring people back like this, she was naturally unwilling. However, the price of a servant girl is not painful for Yin Nuan at all.
"Forget it, since I am a person from my yard, of course I mean how to arrange it, I just heard that there are not enough people in the dining room, so I let her go over. β
Yin Nuan sighed, with Yin Luo's character, this is probably her biggest concession, but as long as she doesn't serve by Yin Luo's side, it can be regarded as the best ending.
The water slave's eyes were wide open, and he barely turned his eyes to see through the top of the bed, not knowing where to look. Maybe it's because I've been used to this feeling since I came to Yin's house, and I don't have the dazed and helpless feeling of waking up from a coma at the beginning. It's just that I don't know what kind of unbearable suffering awaits me after waking up this time.
Strange bed tents, strange rooms. When he was unconscious before, he seemed to hear Yin Luo say that he was going to sell himself, and the water slave got up from the bed with some eagerness to open the door to see if he was still in the Yin family.
Before his feet landed, there was a tingling pain in his knees, his body weakened, and his forehead hit the edge of the bed and he felt dizzy. The water slave gritted his teeth, crawled on the bed and rested for a while, feeling a little refreshed, before standing up with his hands on his body, swaying to the low table that was somewhat shabby, picking up the dirty teapot and shaking it, it was really empty.
The water slave put the teapot down and sat down for a while before picking up the teapot and going to find some water.
