Chapter 39: The Reputation of "Thieves".

The woman gave Xuanzhu a fierce glance before walking forward, and after they took Xuanzhu into a small dilapidated courtyard, they gave a few more words to the steward and left.

Xuanzhu has a good ear, and heard Mu Ya ask Na Guan to arrange a place for her in advance, and then find her a job to do, but the woman added two sentences after Mu Ya finished explaining, saying that she was a thief who stole herbs, so she would be a servant, and she should take care of her more if she had a good job.

Of course, Xuanzhu understood what she meant by "good life", and the disgust for the woman in her heart increased a little, looking at the way the steward nodded and bowed, she knew that he would definitely take good care of her, but I didn't know what kind of "good life" would be arranged for her?

"Why don't you go quickly, are you still thinking about stealing a few herbs?" Xuanzhu was muttering to herself, and then she heard a shout from the steward, this shout, with a little contempt, but also a little disgust, so that Xuanzhu felt bad in her heart, but now on other people's territory, the injury has not recovered, so she has to walk forward silently.

"Stop!" Xuanzhu had just walked a few steps when he heard the steward shout again.

She stopped, rolled her eyes helplessly, and thought to herself, what kind of trouble are you making when you leave for a while, and then you don't leave? She was about to turn around and ask for an answer, when she heard the steward say again: "Take off your clothes!" ”

"What? Want me to take my clothes off? Xuanzhu was so angry that his hands and feet trembled, and he was still a pervert in this middle-aged housekeeper? Even someone her age can do it?

"Take this dress and change it, remember to hand over that fur to Lao Tzu." The steward threw over an earthy yellow cloth robe, and his eyes were greedily staring at the white bear skin skirt on Xuanzhu's body.

Xuanzhu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that this steward had taken a fancy to her beast fur, but fortunately, at that time, she cut a small piece and made a sleeveless short skirt, if she made a long skirt, her loss would be great! Thinking that it was indeed inconvenient for him to wear this sleeveless short skirt, he grabbed the cloth coat and glared at the steward fiercely and said, "You go outside the courtyard first!" ”

Although the steward was greedy for Xuanzhu's skirt, he really didn't have a lustful heart, and when he heard Xuanzhu say it, his old face turned red and he ran out in a hurry.

Xuanzhu changed her clothes and dismantled the short skirt into a bearskin before walking out, saying that she couldn't give the skirt she wore to a middle-aged man intact, right?

The steward also understood what Xuanzhu meant, but he was satisfied with a "knowledgeable" girl like her, otherwise let those stewards know that he had snatched a girl's skirt and wouldn't squeeze him to death?

He pointed to a room and said to Xuanzhu: "You will live there in the future, if you dare to steal a single grass and tree here, see if I don't clean you up!" After the steward warned Xuanzhu, he left happily.

Steal your sister! This girl just dug up a few herbs, as for labeling a "thief"? Xuanzhu complained secretly in her heart and walked towards the house, but before she could walk in, she saw a woman in her fifties walk in, she looked Xuanzhu up and down, and said with contempt in her eyes: "You are the thief who stole the herbs?" ”

You're a thief! Xuanzhu scolded secretly in her heart, she was detained for no reason and was detained for such a basin, not to mention the grievances in her heart, but this mother-in-law also took advantage of her inattention to twist her fiercely, Xuanzhu turned her head angrily and glared at the mother-in-law fiercely, only to see the mother-in-law's gloomy eyes staring at her with malice, which reminded Xuanzhu of the scene of "Rong Huanhuan" tortured Ziwei, and couldn't help but shrink her body.

Don't you know that her appearance in the eyes of her mother-in-law is a sign of being a thief, she pulled Xuanzhu's arm and said: "Little, don't hurry up and work for the old lady!" What about sitting here waiting to steal something? ”

Xuanzhu's arm was pulled by her, and she suddenly felt a burst of pain, she involuntarily shrunk, and used her other hand to protect the place where she was pulled just now, and greeted the ancestor of this old woman in her heart, and only then did she feel relieved of the stuffiness in her chest.

If she had been in the past, she would have been slapped twice, but now, in order to recover from her injuries, she had to swallow her anger and suppress the anger in her heart.

Under the pull of the mother-in-law, they walked outside, and soon, they came to a large courtyard, the courtyard was full of people wearing the same khaki cloth clothes as her, some of them were chopping wood, some were carrying water, and some were carrying dishes and pots in and out here, Xuanzhu thought, this is probably a kitchen.

But how many people do you have to eat in this "Miracle Medicine Valley"? This kitchen is obviously not small, there are fifty or sixty people who do chores alone.

"What do you see? Why don't you go quickly? Xuanzhu was seeing God, and the woman twisted it from Xuanzhu's arm.

Xuanzhu "hissed" and pulled back her arm suddenly, and the mother-in-law was pulled too hard by Xuanzhu and almost fell into a, so she had to put her hand away stupidly. Xuanzhu snickered in her heart, but didn't dare to show it on her face, and stopped with the woman when she came to the backyard next to a large pile of firewood.

There was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl next to Chai He who was struggling to chop firewood, Xuanzhu felt that she had made a lot of effort to split a mark on the thick wooden pier of the bowl, and it was not until a dozen times that she split a small stroke, obviously this firewood is not easy to split.

This old woman Yu is going to let her chop wood with the little girl, Xuanzhu thought. But I don't know how she arranged, she didn't say anything, just waiting for the other party to speak.

"Xiaocao, from today onwards, you will carry water for the old lady, if you can't pick up the ten tanks of water, don't think about eating!" After the woman finished giving instructions to the little girl, she said to Xuanzhu in a vicious voice: "You, from now on, you are not allowed to eat if you can't chop twenty bundles of firewood every day!" After saying that, he twisted his fat arm and left.

Twenty bundles? Why don't you let your aunt and grandmother finish this pile? Damn, it's too ruthless! I originally wanted to chop with Xiaocao, how could I mix the day's dosage with enough chopping, who knew that this old Yu Po would be so ruthless!

Twenty bundles! When will she be able to finish the split while she is injured? You must know that each bundle is composed of ten wooden segments with a thick mouth and a length of one person, and this wood is firewood and pear wood, which is much more difficult to split than ordinary wood.

The reason why I know about firewood is because I was forced to split it when I was in the Zi family, and the Zi family spent a lot of spars in order to buy a few bundles of firewood and pear wood.

This wood burns like modern coal, quite durable, the only drawback is that it is not easy to split, at that time it took a day for Xuanzhu to split three or five roots, and now let her split two hundred, isn't it deliberately wholesome?
