Chapter 54: Ran away

Maybe the sky is getting brighter and brighter against the snow, but the temperature outside is still the same, and it's still so cold that people don't want to get out of bed.

Most of the masters of the various families are still lying on the bed, hugging the concubine in the nth room, doing the primitive and exciting things.

However, the servants and maids of each family had to get up and clean the snow in the courtyard, otherwise they would be discovered by their own housekeepers or masters, and their monthly income for this month would be gone.

None of them are rich, if they are rich, how can they be servants or maids here? The source of all their gold coins is the monthly gold every month, and occasionally there will be a reward from the young lady and the young master, so they all cherish the monthly gold every month.

At the gate of Bertha's small courtyard of the Slatt family, two or three servants took cleaning tools and waited for Bertha to open the door for them to go in and clean the snow in the courtyard.

But they waited a long time and didn't wait for Bertha to open the door for them, it wasn't that they didn't knock, they knocked on the door, and knocked many times, but still no one came to open the door for them.

They don't dare to enter without permission when no one opens the door for them.

Although Bertha is no longer the eldest lady of the Slatt family, her former demonic image still remains in the hearts of many servants and maids, making them unable to raise an attitude of contempt for her.

"Something is not right, you wait here, I'll go find the butler to take a look!" one of the more resourceful servants noticed the anomaly and hurriedly said to the other two.

"Okay, we'll wait here!"

They also sensed that something was wrong with the door after not opening the door for so long, so they agreed.

The quick-witted servant departed and hurried to the butler's room.

"Butler, butler, oh no," shouted the servant as he came to the butler's room.

"What's the noise, disturb my sleep!"

In fact, the butler Kede had already woken up and had already dressed, but he didn't go out.

He was a steward and a servant, but he was a higher level than the average servant. He didn't go to clean the snow, but he had his own work to do, and he had to make sure that other servants came to him for help, so he got up early.

The butler Kod opened the door and looked impatiently at the servant in front of him.

"Butler, it's no good!" said the servant, still in a panic.

"What's wrong, you're not good!" The butler looked at the servant angrily, and thought to himself: "If this servant can't say anything bad, I don't mind letting this family have one less person to eat!"

"No... No, I'm not saying you're bad, it's that things aren't good!"

"What's wrong?"

"This morning, I and two other servants took our tools and prepared to go to Miss Bertha's yard to clear the snow last night, but we knocked on the door for a long time, and we didn't see Miss Bertha open the door, and we didn't dare to trespass, so we came to the butler to take a look!"

"I've knocked on the door for a long time, and I haven't seen her come out to see the door? It's so late, won't she still be sleeping! Let's go, go and see if this abolished eldest lady is playing any kind of temper again?"

When the butler heard that it was about Bertha that disturbed him, a fire had already ignited in his heart. As long as Bertha is still playing with the eldest lady's temper, he doesn't mind talking to the family again, let her marry early, and save herself from being a boss in the house.

In a few moments, the butler led the servant to the outside of Bertha's courtyard, and sure enough, as he had said, the other two servants were waiting outside with their snow-clearing tools.

"Miss Bertha, don't play any more big lady tempers, and open the door quickly, or I'll go straight in!" cried out the butler Curd.

He was still happy that Bertha was replaced. In the past, when Bertha was the eldest lady of the Slatt family, she didn't give him a good look, and when she usually met it, she was treated with contempt like a servant, and she didn't take him in her eyes at all, and he dared not speak out.

Now Bertha has been replaced, just an ordinary young lady, and in the Slatt family, there are as many ordinary young ladies as there are, but he is the only butler, and he naturally will not grovel as before.

After a while, they still didn't hear anything coming from inside, and naturally no one came to open the door, which made the butler Kede's face very uncomfortable.

"Since you don't open the door, then don't blame me for slamming the door! Go, smash, I want to see what she's doing, why hasn't the door been opened for so long!"

"Yes, butler!"

This time, with the order of the housekeeper, they naturally had the support as servants, and they all hurriedly went up, pushing and smashing, and soon the door was opened by them.

The butler led them in, and saw only the snow all over the yard, but not the grumpy lady. The butler, thinking that she was still sleeping in the room, came to the door of the room, knocked on the door, and spoke loudly.

"Miss Bertha, get up!"

After waiting for a while, but still no one answered him, the butler thought it was incredible, pushed open the door, and walked in.

The room was a mess, as if it had been burglarized, many of the dresses were missing, and Bertha was not seen in the room.

In the past, Bertha had to buy some dresses every once in a while, so the housekeeper could be sure that there were a lot of her dresses in Bertha's room, but now it is obviously a lot less, and combined with Bertha's absence, it is certain that Bertha escaped!

Escaped!

What is this concept?

An eldest lady, even if she is replaced, she is still the young lady of the Slatt family, and now she is running, so how can it work?

The butler hurriedly ran out and shouted to the three servants who were cleaning the yard, "Stop sweeping, go out and find someone and get Miss Bertha back!"

Then Kod hurried to the family room, leaving behind the three servants with bewildered faces.

The three servants did not know what was happening, you looked at me, I looked at yours, and after a while, the witty servant hurriedly said.

"Since the butler is asking us to go out to find Miss Bertha, it means that Miss is not in the room, she has already gone out, and now she is missing. ”

"Then let's go out and find it!"

"Uh-huh!"

The three servants put down their tools and headed straight out of the house.

......

"Master, master, no, Miss Bertha is gone!" cried the butler as he ran.

"What? Bertha is gone, how long has it been gone?" Aite, who was looking at the account book in the room, heard what the butler said, and hurriedly ran out and asked.

"Today... This morning, the servant was going to Miss Bertha's yard to sweep the snow, but no one had come to open the door for a long time, so she came to me, and I pushed the door open, and found that there were many things missing from the lady's room, what dresses, what gold coins, etc., and I suspected that she had run away!" explained the butler breathlessly.

"Ran away?" Aite turned wrong when he heard this, "What is this little girl running away?

"Yes!"

The butler ran out again.

Aite, who was still in the yard, sighed. But after sighing, I felt a great headache.

Aite said to the servant who was cleaning: "Don't clean it, go out and look for her, and make sure to get her back for me!"

When the maid who was cleaning heard this, she put down her tools and ran out of the Slat's mansion as if she were fleeing.

"Alas, don't go there!"
