Chapter 43: It's Too Late
"Yes, she should indeed be your second miss, but who really regards her as the master?" After speaking, Ping Xiang turned around and drove away.
And after he walked away, the security guard who had clashed with Ping Xiang before was still scolding without admitting defeat, as if he was deliberately trying to find some face in front of those single maids, he said: "What's the big deal? Isn't there just a few stinky money? Ran to the gate of our Lan family's villa to spread wild? Hum! ”
However, the butler's face was no longer calm after Ping Xiang left, but became gloomy, and the guards around him seemed to feel the existence of this aura, but the guard didn't know it yet.
Listening to the butler's cold tone, she didn't look back, just turned her back to the guard, and asked, "Did you really say bad things about the second young lady just now?" In front of Master Ping? ”
"Actually, it's just a misunderstanding, it's the new guard who said the wrong thing out of his mouth." The slightly more experienced guard helped him explain, hoping that the butler would not be too angry.
And the housekeeper turned his head at this time, looked at the guard who helped explain just now, and still asked expressionlessly: "If I remember correctly, this person came in through the back door through your connection, right?" Now he has caused trouble, humiliated the second lady, and was laughed at by Young Master Ping? How do you take this responsibility? ”
"This?" The butler looked angry, not at all like he was joking, and the guards didn't know what to do? Hurriedly pulled the guard who was still scolding just now, bowed his head in front of the housekeeper and apologized, and said: "We know that we are wrong, butler, please forgive me for the sake of standing guard for the Lan family villa for many years?" And not too many people know about it, do they? As long as you can turn a blind eye butler, then ......"
"Who are you? Why should I turn a blind eye to you? Before the guards could finish their sentence, the butler immediately refused their request, and interrupted what he wanted to continue brazenly saying, and continued:
"I am the housekeeper of this villa, your words and deeds are related to my face, if Young Master Ping tells the eldest young master what happened today, how do you think the eldest young master will be angry? Hum! A mere guard, how dare he judge the second miss? Regardless of whether the second miss is a foreign surname in your mouth? Since you choose to work in the Lan family villa, you must treat her as the master, otherwise, it is better to just roll up the cover and get out! ”
The housekeeper's words were not merciful, in fact, when she was still in the hall before, she heard how the guards laughed at Xiao Kui? It's just that I've occasionally heard someone talk about Xiao Kui's nostalgia before, after all, her mouth is on other people's faces, and she can't be strict enough to control other people's words and deeds?
But now it seems that if she doesn't kill a hundred people, she takes the opportunity to warn all her subordinates that Xiao Kui's identity is noble, and these people will always talk about Xiao Kui's identity behind her back, and they are full of rejection of her, right?
As soon as the guards heard the butler say that they were going to fire them? His face, which had been calm before, immediately changed drastically, and he kicked the guard in the knee of the troublemaker, forcing him to kneel in front of the butler, and kept pleading: "The butler is gracious? I'm so old, I'll be able to retire soon, and if I leave the Lan family villa now, there will really be nothing? This little bastard caused trouble on his own, so let him be responsible, although I was right to find him, but please butler, for the sake of my age, spare me this time, right? ”
Everyone in the Lan family villa knows that Lan Feng is kind to everyone, of course, he is also strict, he can't tolerate a grain of sand in his eyes, but as long as he doesn't cause trouble and doesn't offend him, after retirement, he will get a valuable pension, not only that, but he will also get special care from the hospital and some other medical units, and even his family will be beneficial.
The guard finally survived to this age, and he saw that he would be able to retire honorably next year, but he never expected that the reputation of this life would be ruined by the grandson of this distant relative's family?
He was unwilling to pay the responsibility together, so he begged the housekeeper for mercy, hoping that the responsibility could be borne by the young guard himself, and not to implicate him, after all, the young guard had only been working here for two months, and if he lost his job, he could find another job, he was different, he was old, where to find a job was probably to be disliked, right? Where can you find a unit like the Lan Family Villa that is quiet and leisurely, and you can still get a large salary every month?
Finally, after seeing the housekeeper angry, the young guard also began to realize his mistake, yes, Xiao Kui doesn't care if she is the adopted daughter of the Lan family? For these of them, they should all be the existence of the master, he is just a small security guard, a fledgling, what qualifications do he have to talk about the master?
So he quickly knelt on the ground and begged the butler for mercy: "Say that I did something wrong, really I was wrong, I already know that I was wrong, spare me?" I won't dare to speak ill of Second Miss in the future, spare me this time, right? ”
"Since you admit that you did wrong, then instead of asking for my forgiveness, you should ask the second lady to forgive you." The butler didn't seem to be moved by the young guard's plea, and after saying this, he didn't forget to add: "Of course, I don't think that the second lady will be interested in meeting you, after all, how can a person like you be treated well?" ”
The housekeeper glanced around, only to see that the lively crowd was now almost all the subordinates of the entire Lan family villa, and she could take this opportunity to warn everyone, saying: "In addition, whether it is standing in the position of the housekeeper of the Lan family villa, or other ordinary maids, I have to remind you that if you want An An to work here and have a good pension and treatment after retirement, the first thing you need to learn is not to judge behind the master's back!" Especially Second Miss, if you can't remember my warning today and make a mistake, then don't blame me for ignoring my friendship for many years, and I'm going to kick you out of the villa! ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she left, and the rest of the guards and maids also dispersed with interest, as if they were afraid of being implicated by the two guards who had just been kicked out.
Leaving the desperate old guard, he had nowhere to vent his anger, so he turned around and slapped the young guard twice, and scolded viciously: "I am really unlucky, how can I promise my relatives to find you a job?" I didn't expect you to be a disaster! It's only been two months since I arrived, and I lost my job? Get out! Get back to my hometown right now, I don't want to see you! ”
"Uncle......" The young guard couldn't have imagined that he would fall into such a situation? He regretted it too, but it was too late.
After the housekeeper returned to the hall, the note that Pingxiang gave her before felt as if it weighed a thousand pounds, did she want her to hand it over to Xiao Kui? Was that the one she saw out this morning......
She hesitated a little, and walked slowly to the cabin at a distance from the hall, as usual, not only the housekeeper herself, but even the maids were very rare to approach, after all, Xiao Kui's identity in the Lan family villa was embarrassing.
Knock knock.
Knowing that there would be no one in the room, the housekeeper still subconsciously knocked on the door, and sure enough, there was no movement of half a person inside, she hesitated for a moment, tried to push the door, and really pushed it open? Probably because no one approaches the cabin usually, so over time, Xiao Kui doesn't have to worry about someone trespassing in while she is away.
The room was very tidy, with a faint fragrance of a little woman, just like the housekeeper could occasionally smell Lan Feng when he opened the door of the study.
The housekeeper's brows furrowed even tighter, she seemed to be a little nervous, the closer she got to the closet, the more sweaty her forehead became, the cabin was not big, and it could barely accommodate one person to rest, which made people have to wonder that in such a small space, there would be a mother and daughter who have lived here for more than 20 years? Since the death of his mother, only Xiao Kui has lived here.
The furniture in the cabin is also the old style from more than 20 years ago, Xiao Kui is very nostalgic, so she has never updated it, and she is probably worried that she will be pointed at behind her back, so she would rather live surrounded by old furniture, right?
Unconsciously, the more he observed the furniture of the cabin, the more sour the housekeeper's heart became, in the past 20 years, not to mention the maids, even she had never given Xiao Kui a good look, but now, seeing such a stubborn little girl, without being recognized by anyone, was still barely trying to survive, such willpower is by no means something that everyone can have, of course, it also makes the housekeeper feel distressed.
She put the small note on the more conspicuous pillow, although she didn't know what Pingxiang was in a hurry to tell Xiao Kui? But I also hope that she can find out in the first place, right?
Then she disguised herself as if no one had ever entered as much as she could, and left the cabin, but the heart, with the pace of leaving, seemed to be completely broken.
If Xiao Kui has really been pretending to be Lan Feng for the past two years, then has the real Lan Feng encountered any accidents? This confusion has long been hidden in the housekeeper's heart, but she has never told anyone, and now she is making excuses that her son is sick, in fact, she is also testing Lan Feng that night, and it turns out that he is really Xiao Kui, because she has told the real Lan Feng a long time ago that she and her husband, who loves gambling, have long been divorced, and the two have no children!
Of course, I'm afraid Lan Feng will know about this matter later, as for Xiao Kui, because she doesn't know about it, so when she says that she wants to go back to take care of her sick son, she will agree without suspicion at all, right?
