Zhu Gongdao went out to find Ma's uncle and nephew, and arranged for Yuan Xu to meet them.

In the small courtyard, Yuan Xu asked the guards to move a low table and sit under the tree and sip tea.

When he first arrived in Shangcai, he thought that things here were very simple.

It's nothing more than the official forcing the people to rebel, just report to Yuan Shao to rectify the Cai officialdom, and then appease the thieves!

Six poor people were killed, but let him see that the water in Shangcai was very deep!

Sipping the fragrant tea, Yuan Xu asked the guard: "Nian'er has been out for a long time, why hasn't she returned so far?" ”

A guard was about to answer, but Nian'er walked in with her head down.

Her steps were very fast, and she saw Yuan Xu stunned from a distance, and then lowered her head, for fear of being looked at more.

The unusual behavior aroused Yuan Xu's suspicions.

"Nian'er, come here!"

Hanging his head, Nian Er hesitated, and finally only took two steps forward.

"Come closer, look up." The more she covered it up, the more suspicious Yuan Xu became.

Still with his head down, Nian'er didn't say anything.

"I want you to look up!" Sensing that something was not right, Yuan Xu no longer spoke softly as he used to talk to her, but with an irresistible lowness.

Not daring to disobey, Nian'er slowly raised her head.

His cheeks were red, and tears were still swirling in his eye sockets, obviously very wronged.

"What's going on?" With a frown, Yuan Xu asked, "Who did it?" ”

"The slave doesn't matter, it's just hot......" Tears almost couldn't help falling, Nian'er still wanted to hide it.

"In the early spring, and not by the stove, you say it's hot?"

Lowering her head again, Nian'er's lips pursed tightly.

"If it's hot, why are there bruises?" Seeing that she was being bullied outside, Yuan Xu asked, "Tell me the truth, who bullied you?" ”

"Don't worry about the child, it's just that the third lady teaches the slave and maid ......"

Nian'er's voice was so low that she could barely hear it herself.

"Call Dong He!" Hearing that it was the third lady of the Dong family, Yuan Xu gave an order to the guard.

"Please don't call the master to come!" Yuan Xu asked people to call Dong He, Nian'er bent her knees in fright, knelt on the ground, and finally couldn't hold back her tears: "The young ladies ate the pastries sent by the son, and they had diarrhea all day, but they just called the slave maid to ask, and it didn't matter." ”

Ate the pastry sent to diarrhea all day?

Yuan Xu's brows furrowed.

He only added honey and corn to the pastry, which would taste better, but would not cause diarrhea.

If it weren't for the greasy pastries sent by Dong Qing, how could Miss Dong Zhai have diarrhea as discussed?

"Would you like to keep you around?" Knowing that Nian'er was afraid of Dong He, and was also worried that once he left, the Dong family would embarrass her, so Yuan Xu asked.

Raising his head violently, Nian'er looked at him in amazement.

Serving Yuan Xu for two days, she has never been embarrassed, and the master in front of her is an easy-going person she has never seen.

Following a master like Yuan Xu, of course she is willing!

"Call Dong He!" Although Nian'er didn't speak, her reaction said everything, and Yuan Xu commanded the guards again.

One of the guards gave up and turned to leave the courtyard.

"Sit next to you." Looking at Nian'er's flushed cheeks, Yuan Xu couldn't bear the unhappiness in his heart, and greeted him as softly as possible.

As a servant, the concept of obedience has long been ingrained, let alone let her sit beside her, even if she wants her to die, she will not dare not do it!

Of course, Nian'er would not disobey, got up and walked to Yuan Xu's side, and sat next to the table.

Looking at her cheeks, Yuan Xu's face became even more ugly.

He didn't see it clearly when it was far away just now, but at this time, Nian'er was sitting beside him, and the bruises on his cheeks were clearly visible!

He didn't want to offend the third lady of the Dong family!

The other party is a woman after all!

Bullying women is not his style!

However, even the maids around him can't protect him, so what are he talking about achieving great things?

He had to say something!

Yuan Xu invited, of course Dong He did not dare to slack off.

Accompanied by the guards, he hurried to the small courtyard.

Doing business all year round, there are a lot of people in contact, check the color Dong He has long been familiar with the way!

As soon as he entered the small courtyard, he felt that the atmosphere was wrong, and found that Yuan Xu's face was not good, and his heart was even more "groaning"!

Coming to Yuan Xu, Dong He made a big salute: "The county lieutenant summoned me, I don't know what happened?" ”

"I want to buy a maid from Dong Gong's house, I don't know if it's feasible?" Yuan Xu's tone was very cold, and there was no negotiation at all, as if he was telling Dong He that he had to agree to this matter, and if he didn't agree, he had to agree!

"Who does the county lieutenant fancy and personally deliver it to him, how can he talk about buying words?" Laughing with him, Dong He only hoped that Yuan Xu would not trouble him, how dare he refuse to say anything!

"Nian'er is good, I'm going to ask for it!"

"That being the case, someone will send the deed of sale to Miss Nian'er later!"

I thought that Yuan Xu would make trouble for him, but I didn't expect that he just opened his mouth to ask for a servant, and Dong He was immediately relieved.

The family of merchants, although they are rich, does not dare to offend local officials!

What's more, Yuan Xu is still the county lieutenant who holds Cai Bingquan!

He dares to let people rob the treasury, how can he withstand the toss of the county soldiers?

"Since Nian'er is a certain person, there are some things that must be decided for her!" Dong He responded to send out his thoughts, and Yuan Xu suddenly turned his face cold.

"Who wronged Miss Nian'er, and the county lieutenant is so angry?" Ji Lingling shivered, and Dong He said with a bitter face: "Please also ask the county lieutenant to speak clearly!" ”

"Third Miss of your mansion, knowing that Nian'er is serving someone, you still call her away!" Holding Nian'er's chin and letting Dong He see her face clearly, Yuan Xu said coldly: "Isn't slapping Nian'er the same as hitting someone in the face?" ”

Only then did Dong He know that he was causing a big deal!

The granddaughter of the family is Dong Qing's temper the strongest.

At the age of twelve or thirteen, she drowned a handmaiden who broke something she loved.

It was only because she was her own granddaughter that Dong He opened his eyes and closed his eyes.

How could I have thought that he was so bold that even the people around Yuan Xu dared to move!

Trembling slightly, Dong He said: "Don't worry, the county lieutenant will be punished in the next place, and give Miss Nian'er an explanation!" ”

Nian'er was originally a slave of the Dong family, and was sent to the small courtyard in order to please Yuan Xu.

There is an eyeless third granddaughter.

When will it not work to punish Nian'er, instead of choosing the days when Yuan Xu lives at home to move the people around him!

Dong He's heart was depressed.

If Dong Qing was by her side at this time, Dong He really didn't dare to be sure that he wouldn't pounce on her and strangle her to death!

"Call the third lady, so-and-so has something to ask!" With a cold face, Yuan Xu said: "There are also people who do it, call them together!" ”

"Don't worry, the county lieutenant will go in person!" For fear of angering Yuan Xu, Dong Hecheng responded in fear, and left the courtyard in a hurry.

The granddaughter of the Dong family, Dong Qing is the most beautiful!

also planned to let her have more contact with Yuan Xu, so that she could climb the force of the Yuan family in Hebei.

It seems that the pro can't be climbed, but it still causes a commotion!

Leaving the small courtyard and going straight to Dong Qing's residence, Dong He hated it and even itched the root of his teeth!
