Chapter 8 The Flower Picker
On the marble steps of Zhoufu, there was a girl kneeling.
Dressed in a linen garment, I don't know how many patches there are on the clothes, and the hair is messy, but the face is very clean, the face is round, and the eyes are very large, but the face is not very good, and it is a little thin.
Just such a girl, alone, knocked on the door of Jiangzhou Mansion.
"You... What's the matter? Zhou Ruocheng asked.
"Official... Do you want to pick flowers? The girl's voice was also very small, and she asked.
"Picking flowers?" Zhou Ruocheng was blinded, his weeds had already been pulled out, what do you mean by picking flowers? I thought for a moment, "No. ”
When I wanted to turn back, my feet and neck were pulled by the other party, "Official, the little one hasn't eaten for a few days, please do it official, let me open it, no matter who it is... ”
Oh my God, buy and sell? Looking back at the girl who was prostrate on the ground, she had no shoes on her feet, and took two pieces of cloth to wrap her feet.
Thinking about it, there seems to be a place in the backyard that is reserved for greening, and it is estimated that there are still some wildflowers there, so it would be good to send her away.
"Okay, you and I." Zhou Ruocheng sighed and said to the girl.
"Ah, thank you, thank you, thank you!" When the other party heard this, he quickly kowtowed on the ground.
Oh my God, there are still people who kowtow in this era? Zhou Ruocheng also had no choice, "Come in first." ”
Zhou Ruocheng walked in front, and the girl followed behind, looking around.
"How?" Zhou Ruocheng also saw the girl's strange appearance and asked.
"Nothing... The official's home is really big.。。 The girl smiled.
"Well, big has big disadvantages." Zhou Ruocheng shrugged his shoulders, "It's just been renovated, so there's nothing valuable." ”
"Ah, don't worry! I won't steal anything! The girl almost fell to her knees again.
"What's your name?" Zhou Ruocheng looked at her timid appearance and asked.
"If you go back to the official, my name is Cai Wei." The girl replied.
"Alright, it's here." Zhou Ruocheng took her to the back garden, in fact, the plants here were almost taken care of, Zhou Ruocheng just wanted her to make do with it, and then sent her a few dollars to let her go.
As a result, Miss Cai Wei was also stunned for a moment, "Official, are you going to do it here?" ”
"Huh?" Zhou Ruocheng was a little confused: "Otherwise, where will you do it?" ”
Cai Wei looked around, "But here... ”
"If you have tools, there are them in the small room next to you, and if they are complete, you can hurry up." Zhou Ruocheng pointed to the storage room on the side.
"And tools?" Cai Wei's eyes widened.
"What else? Are you bare-handed? Zhou Ruocheng looked puzzled.
Cai Wei bit her lip and muttered, "I thought I met a big official, but I didn't expect to be so perverted... ”
"What do you say?"
"Then official, I'm going to start." After saying that, Cai Wei untied her linen robe, and the robe began to brush down from her shoulder.
Zhou Ruocheng's eyes widened, this girl is vacuum!? In broad daylight! Is this still outside? You undress?!
"What are you doing? It's out there! Zhou Ruocheng shouted.
"Didn't the officials tell me to take it off?" Cai Wei grabbed the other arm with one hand, trying her best not to cover the part of her shame, and her face was red.
"I'm losing!" Zhou Ruocheng reacted, what this girl said about picking flowers turned out to be that meaning, I heard that in the past, when the war was raging, women exchanged for food through special services, "picking flowers" was the black language at that time, after the war, many continents banned the flower picking girl's business, I didn't think Jiangzhou or... "I thought ... I'm sorry girl, I didn't mean that... ”
"Huh?" Miss Caiwei tilted her head.
"I misunderstood, I don't need to pick flowers, and I don't want you to pick flowers, you know." Zhou Ruocheng said word by word.
"Huh?" Miss Cai Wei also seemed to understand, and sat on the ground all of a sudden, covering her body with a linen robe, and tears were ticking, "I thought... I thought I could finally eat something... ”
"I'm sorry, I misunderstood." Zhou Ruocheng smiled embarrassedly.
“。。。。。。” With tears in her eyes, Miss Caiwei put her robe on her body and walked out slowly.
"That... Cai Wei... Girl? Zhou Ruocheng stopped her.
"What else is the matter, the officials?" Cai Wei turned her head, tears still shining on her big eyelashes.
"There are leftovers in the kitchen... It's a pity to lose it... Or? You... Zhou Ruocheng asked.
。。。。。。。
Zhou Ruocheng has never seen disaster victims and hungry people, but he has seen it now, the performance on TV is not exaggerated at all, and even a little deliberate, the girl in front of her is now gulping the food in front of her into her mouth, and she doesn't know if she chews it and swallows it in her stomach, although Zhou Ruocheng prepared water for her, she didn't need it at all.
"It's really hungry... Zhou Ruocheng smiled bitterly.
At this time, Zhou Ruocheng's mobile phone rang.
"Hello? Is it Lord Zhou? It was a woman's voice on the other end of the line.
"Eh, hello, who are you?" Zhou Ruocheng asked.
"Lord Zhou is really a noble person who forgets things, I'm Lin'er." The woman's voice was real.
"Oh, Miss Tang is looking for me for something?" Zhou Ruocheng asked.
"That's right, the prefect knows that there are no servants in your house, so he sent a group of people to follow the envoy of the lord."
"You don't need it, do you?" Zhou Ruocheng was a little depressed, this hospitality came fast enough, but it didn't mean that he didn't want to hire people, and he couldn't afford to hire them now.
"We're almost at the door of your house~"
"What?!" Zhou Ruocheng was stunned for a moment, put down his mobile phone, and ran out of the door as if flying.
Sure enough, a large number of people had gathered outside the door, led by Tang Yunlin with more than a dozen maids, and more than 30 miscellaneous servants at the back, and walked over majestically.
Seeing Zhou Ruocheng come out, Tang Yunlin first made a sound, "Master Zhou is auspicious~"
Everyone in the back bowed their heads and saluted, "Master Zhou, auspicious." ”
Zhou Ruocheng is bitter in his heart, there are so many people, how can I pay my salary? "The prefect is too polite, I don't really like to hire people."
"How can that? Lord Zhou is now a golden body, how can he do it if there are few people around him to serve? Even so, the upper and lower parts of the continent have to be cleaned up, right? Jiangzhou Mansion is the face of Jiangzhou, and you can't lose your cards. ”
Without waiting for Zhou Ruocheng to speak, Tang Yunlin gave the order, "You guys go in first, clean the house, and there can't be any dust." ”
"Yes." Everyone just went in like that.
"Lord Zhou is very fortunate to be alone, right? Soon the house will be cleaned and the door will be opened to welcome customers. Tang Yunlin said with a smile.
What a shrewd and capable woman... Zhou Ruocheng thought.
"Don't you know, my lord, our prefect is worried about you, you know that there is no one around you, and he has brought you so many people." Tang Yunlin said as she walked in with Zhou Ruocheng through the gate.
"To be honest, Miss Tang, I really don't need so many servants... Zhou Ruocheng smiled.
At this moment, a sudden shout came from the house.
"There are thieves!" "Catch the thief!"
Zhou Ruocheng was stunned for a moment, there is a thief? No way? Is the law and order so chaotic here?
After a while, two big men dragged a thin figure over, and several people followed on the side, one by one, scolding vigorously.
"What's going on?" Tang Yunlin asked.
"Back to the Director, we've caught a thief." Said the handyman.
"I'm not." The man looked up, but saw Zhou Ruocheng, and immediately buried his face again.
Zhou Ruocheng looked at this person, ah, bad, forgot about this little girl. "You say she steals?"
"Back to my lord, when we found her, she looked out of the room, her appearance was suspicious, and a lot of food from her room was searched." Said the handyman.
"No, it's not like that... Cai Wei shook her head in defense.
When a maid on the side heard this, she took out two steamed buns from her robe and said, "Look, my lord! ”
"The human and material evidence is conclusive, what else is there to say?"
"No, it's not like that."
"How dare you quibble?" A handyman on the side stepped forward with a big mouth. "At first glance, she looks like a flower prostitute! Believe it or not, I stripped you naked and went to the streets?! ”
Anyway, it was getting worse and worse to hear, and a group of people were talking about what to do with the poor girl.
"Okay, don't make any noise." Zhou Ruocheng said.
There are still people arguing.
"I said stop arguing!!" Zhou Ruocheng shouted at the top of his voice.
Finally quiet.
"Take me to the room to see, what's going on, and then make a decision, okay?" Zhou Ruocheng asked.
"My lord, what's so good about this, a lowly woman, if she steals something, she should be killed, even if she doesn't steal something, what is he doing in Zhoufu?" A handyman said.
"Listen to your lords." Tang Yunlin on the side also spoke: "Adults naturally have the meaning of adults." ”
"But..."
"What? Don't even listen to the master? Tang Yunlin asked.
Everyone had no choice, and followed Zhou Ruocheng to the room.
The room is indeed like a thief, it can only be said that Cai Wei's eating appearance is too terrible, the steamed buns on one side of the steamer were originally slowed down, but now most of them are gone, Zhou Ruocheng of course remembers how many steamed buns he gave Cai Wei, Zhou Ruocheng turned his head to look at Cai Wei, Cai Wei also had a look of horror on his face, and knelt on the ground with an ordinary voice, "I don't know Taishan with eyes, I don't know if this is Zhoufu, spare the little one this time... Don't dare anymore... Don't dare anymore. ”
"Look! Under the intimidation of adults, she admitted it herself! Drag her out! Someone shouted again.
"My lord! Don't dare anymore adults! Cai Wei's crying pear blossom brought rain, kneeling on the ground, the linen robe on her body should also be smashed as if it was pulled, she didn't care about the spring, kowtowed on the ground one by one, and the people on the side tried to pull her up, and some even used their feet.
Zhou Ruocheng looked at the girl kowtowing on the ground, then looked at the people shouting and killing all over the house, and then turned his head to look at Tang Yunlin beside him.
Tang Yunlin beat his eyes and didn't watch this scene.
"Tell your people to stop." Zhou Ruocheng said to Tang Yunlin.
Tang Yunlin glanced at Zhou Ruocheng, and then asked the people on the side to stop.
Everyone stopped, and the flower picker, who was almost naked under her, was still lying on the ground, and she could no longer speak, and spoke in a terrible cry.
"Please give this girl a dress." Zhou Ruocheng said.
No one moved, just looked at Zhou Ruocheng, and some looked at the flower picker kneeling in the middle.
"Miss Tang, will you lend me a piece of clothing?" Zhou Ruocheng asked.
"I hate it, Lord Zhou, even if you want to rub the slave's oil, you don't have to find such a far-fetched reason, right?" Tang Yunlin said with a smile.
"If you don't want to, forget it." Zhou Ruocheng was speechless.
Tang Yunlin gave Zhou Ruocheng a warm smile, walked towards the flower picking girl, untied her coat, and put it on her.
Zhou Ruocheng picked up the mobile phone from the table, "Na, if you really have bad intentions, my mobile phone was placed on the table just now, and she can use it to exchange for money." ”
Suddenly, a group of people began to be in an uproar.
"I brought this girl in, so there's no stealing." Zhou Ruocheng said, "It's not that I look down on picking flowers, people can be regarded as making money with their own skills, and they don't steal or rob, do you need to lose your temper so much?" ”
"But my lord! This kind of slut doesn't need to give her a good look! I don't know who said it.
Suddenly, a group of people shouted, "Yes, yes." ”
"I said, I brought her in, she was my guest! Am I also a lowly person? Well? Zhou Ruocheng asked.
No one spoke again.
"Huh! So irritable, how dare I use you with peace of mind? Zhou Ruocheng shook his head, "Just now, if you have touched or even beaten this girl, even if it is just a scolding, you won't have to go to work tomorrow." ”
