Volume 1 Three Lives Chapter 169 Out of the House
As for letting her accompany Chen Bai, Qiu'er and Huanyin stayed in the mansion to take care of Ah Si, she didn't think about it, but in the end she was vetoed. If the shadow comes in the process, it will also be exposed.
After thinking about it, it seems that only the idea proposed by Qiu'er has a certain degree of feasibility.
Seeing that Chun'er didn't object, Qiu'er showed a little bit of discomfort for a moment, but her reaction speed was okay, and it was only for a moment.
Looking at everyone, she no longer hesitated, made a gesture of please to Chen Bai, and picked up a bamboo cage from under the tree next to her, which was full of garbage.
Seeing this, Chen Bai nodded and was about to move forward, but Qiu'er instantly seemed to think of something and hurriedly grabbed him.
Turning his head to look at her with some puzzlement, Chen Bai was about to speak, when he felt that something was stuffed into his mouth. As soon as this thing melted into his mouth, he didn't even have a chance to spit it out. Subsequently, Qiu'er stuffed a bamboo cage in his hand.
A little helpless to look at her, Chen Bai couldn't help but say, "Aunt Qiu'er... Hmmm??!!" Before the words could be uttered, he was instantly stunned. When he was just speaking, it turned out to be Ah Si's voice.
"Master Xu, it's already Chenshi, if you don't hurry up, I'm afraid there will be some trouble in entering. In order to prevent Chen Bai from turning into a hundred thousand whys, Qiu'er hurriedly gave him a threat.
Sure enough, this trick was extremely effective, and Chen Bai, who was about to open his mouth to ask, hurriedly shut up when he heard this, and at the same time ran outside with a bamboo cage.
Smiling slightly, Qiu'er showed a somewhat satisfied look, and without saying much, she followed with light steps, and took the courtyard door with her.
In the courtyard, Phantom Yin and Chun'er glanced at each other, and then they both looked at Ah Si together.
Suddenly stared at by the two, Ah Si felt the chrysanthemum tight, and hurriedly looked at the two with a smile. As for the extremely shocked expression that Chen Bai had just revealed because of his same voice as him, he had already covered it up well.
Staring at him, Phantom Yin said as if unintentionally: "Chun'er, I saw that there was an unconcealable disgust in your eyes when you looked at this Ah Si, what did he do?"
"Hehe! This man is a brute, miss, listen to me tell you. Didn't I go to Yiya Garden yesterday? I happened to meet ......" Chun'er sneered and began to tell Phantom Yin about Ah Si's "glorious deeds".
Walking out of the courtyard gate, looking at Chen Bai, who was a little anxious, Qiu'er couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile, and then silently walked in front of him and led the way.
In a small flower bed not far from the courtyard, a short man was lying inside, watching the two drift apart.
Suddenly, he felt that something was wrong, and his eyes showed some incomprehension and said to himself: "No, Ah Si obviously had a hard time when he went in, why did he seem to be a different person when he came out?"
"Then do you see his face clearly, aren't you worried that it's really changing?" came a slightly playful female voice beside him.
"No way! I can see it clearly, it's him, what a hell. No, who are you?" the man first confidently denied her thoughts, then sensed that something was wrong, and quickly turned his head to look at the source of the voice.
When he saw the appearance of the person who spoke, his face showed a little embarrassed, and he said a little sneeringly: "Miss Chun'er, I said that I happened to pass by here, do you believe it?"
"What do you say?" Squinting at him, Chun'er said with a smirk.
"I'm leaving, I'm leaving!" laughed, and the man hurriedly stood up, intending to leave here.
But just as he was about to leave, Chun'er stretched out a hand and pressed him into the flower bed, and said viciously: "Voldemort, do you think I don't know that you are one of the few capable men under the shadow army? Since you want to watch here, then you should keep an eye on it, and you are not allowed to leave until night!"
When Voldemort heard this, he looked at Chun'er with a strange expression, and said in his heart, Could this girl have been beaten stupid by the shadow lady?, but he naturally wouldn't say this on the surface, and said with a smile: "Since Miss Chun'er said so, the little one will continue to watch here." In fact, the little one is really not watching you, he is just practicing a technique. ”
"Hehe, do you know that you and Shadow both have the same excuse?" sneered, Chun'er didn't bother to take care of him, turned around and dodged back into the courtyard.
Watching her return to the courtyard, Voldemort struggled a little, wanting to report what had just happened to Shadow, but also afraid that once he left, there would be some accidents here. After struggling for a while, he finally chose to continue to stare at this place, and he planned to do it later, after all, his task was to keep an eye on Phantom and Chun'er's movements.
Here, Qiu'er had already taken Chen Bai to the small door where Phantom Yin had taken him into the mansion before, but at this moment, a man with a mustache on his face was guarding the door. When he saw the two of them, he was stunned at first, but soon he was a little angry on his face.
This person is none other than the three major stewards in Bafu.
Walking forward quickly, Pi had to stop in front of Qiu'er, and said angrily: "What are you going to do? There is a clear order in the house! No maids are allowed to have affairs with the family!"
Smiling slightly, Qiu'er's face didn't show a panicked look, but said softly: "Manager Pi, Qiu'er doesn't have anything to do with the family~ Manager Pi must have seen it wrong." ”
As she spoke, she took a small step forward, and a few more copper plates appeared in her little hand, which were quietly stuffed into Pi Zhi's hand.
Rubbing the copper plate a few times with his hand, he smiled a little, glanced at her with appreciation, and then put his eyes on Chen Bai and coughed lightly.
Chen Bai was really frightened just now, thinking that this Ah Si and Qiu'er had some story and were caught, but after seeing the scene just now, he knew what the situation was.
Seeing that Pi was looking at himself, Chen Bai hurriedly touched the pocket on his clothes, and really touched six or seven copper plates, and immediately did not hesitate, he took them all out, followed Qiu'er's example, took a step forward, and quietly stuffed the copper plate into Pi Shen's hand.
A foul smell hit, and Pi Zhen was about to attack, but the sudden sinking of his hand made him give up this idea, and after a rough touch, his eyes when he looked at Chen Bai again had completely changed, and he patted Chen Bai's shoulder very affectionately and said, "Who should I be?" You've done a good job lately, and if you work hard, maybe you'll be the fifth housekeeper in our Bafu. ”
He didn't dare to bow his head and bow his waist, Chen Bai behaved very lowly, but his performance made Qiu'er frown, looking like she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything.
After receiving the money, Pi Cheng no longer looked fierce and vicious, and opened the door to the two of them very kindly.
After a while of thanks, Qiu'er left Bafu with Chen Bai.
Looking at the backs of the two, Pi was a little puzzled and said: "It's strange, Ah Si, this kid has changed sex today? Is it because the eldest grandmother is not in the house?" After thinking about it for a while, he didn't come up with anything, so he simply shook his head and forgot about it, anyway, he received the money, and it was a happy thing after all.
After leaving Bafu, Qiu'er didn't stop, and walked directly along the path, and Chen Bai hurriedly followed.
After rounding a few blocks, a stone pit that didn't look too small appeared in front of them.
Stopped, Qiu'er turned to look at Chen Bai and said, "Master Xu, just leave the car here, quickly change your clothes and take off the disguise." ”
Nodding, Chen Bai didn't talk nonsense, quickly took off Ah Si's clothes, and according to what Qiu'er said before, he directly tore off the skin and handed it to her.
Taking over the camouflage skin, Qiu'er stuffed it directly into her sleeve, and then took out another face from her sleeve and covered it on her face, directly turning into an extremely middle-looking girl.
After doing this, she looked at Chen Bai and said, "Young Master Xu, please come with me." ”
Nodding, Chen Bai chased after her directly and walked side by side with her.
When he was on the road, Chen Bai finally couldn't help it, and said with some doubts: "Miss Qiu'er, what did you want to say when I was giving money to that Pi manager just now?"
Seeing that he took the initiative to ask, Qiu'er didn't hide it, and said bluntly: "Ah Si also has a somewhat unclear relationship with the eldest grandmother, so he has a bit of status in front of his subordinates on weekdays, and to some extent, he is like a housekeeper without a name, and he has always been at odds with several housekeepers, so he never takes money to honor them, and several housekeepers are also used to making trouble for him." ”
"So that's the case, so will there be any problems if I do this today?" nodded suddenly, Chen Bai knew what the problem was, and couldn't help but be a little worried.
"Don't worry, Butler Pi is only interested in money, compared to the other two butlers, it is already simple, don't worry too much. Qiu'er smiled and motioned for him to relax.
Hearing her say this, Chen Bai was also relieved, and there was a little more smile on his face, and he chatted with Qiu'er with a smile.
The two of them just walked and talked, and the scene around them kept changing. Finally, in front of a rather imposing building, Qiu'er stopped.
Looking at the row of buildings with red walls and yellow tiles in front of him, Chen Bai's eyes were full of excitement.
This is the common pride of all the literati in the country of Caixing, where the school examination institute is located, it is all red walls and yellow tiles, which is the same as the palace, which also reflects to some extent the emphasis on literature and light on military force in the country of Caixing.
However, as a scholar, Chen Bai naturally would not oppose the "fine tradition" of emphasizing literature over martial arts.
