"Excuse me, is Miss Suzaku here?"

A voice rang out from the courtyard. Suzaku couldn't help but be a little surprised, and walked out the door to check.

I don't know who came. He is a middle-aged man of medium to thin stature, with sinister eyebrows, a sunken face, two thin lips, and two sparse whiskers at the corners of his lips. Seeing Suzaku come out, he hurriedly bowed.

"You're Suzaku girl, aren't you? The villain, Yao Biren, was originally the housekeeper of this house. Hearing that Miss Suzaku bought it, Lord Qin's family moved away again, thinking that you need manpower, and the villain came forward to recommend herself. ”

Yao Biren secretly looked at Suzaku while saying with his eyes, the corners of his mouth were pulled up obliquely, and he looked sneering.

Suzaku understood Yao Biren's intention, although he didn't like this person in his heart, he really needed manpower. Besides, this person must have some kind of purpose when he came, not just to apply. Do you really think you're an untrained little girl? Let's see, take it first, and then find a way to teach a lesson, and then save it and make trouble behind your back in the future.

The decision has been made, so naturally we have to change our attitude, and we have to do it really.

Suzaku naturally smiled, and walked down the steps to return the salute.

"Uncle Yao, you turned out to be a housekeeper? That's great! My father-in-law's family moved away, and knowing that I was not leaving, he left me a lot of silver taels, which did not buy this yard. I'm just a child, I don't know anything, and I'm saying I'm looking for someone to help the housekeeper, and you're here, and I'm going to depend on you from now on. ”

Suzaku put down his posture and tried to pretend that he was not deeply involved in the world. Seeing that Yao Biren looked like he had succeeded in his treacherous scheme, he raised his head and chest, and his face was full of pride.

"Hehe...... then I'll call you a niece, I want me Yao Biren to be a housekeeper for more than ten years, and I am confident that it is no problem to manage this family, and everything will be handed over to me in the future."

Looking at Yao Biren's demeanor of claiming to be his master, Suzaku became more and more sure that this person had a deep plan. I didn't get angry at the moment, but laughed with him and went along with the conversation.

"Look, do you need to find a few more people? Can't let you do all the chores at home, right? ”

"That's nature, I'm the housekeeper. It just so happened that those subordinates had just been dismissed a few days ago, and I didn't let them go, so I just recruited them back. ”

"Then thank you, you can do it, I don't understand anything, I have to rely on you."

"Then you just wait at home, and I'll call them over."

After speaking, Yao Biren went out triumphantly, without the appearance that a subordinate should have.

Suzaku secretly sneered, didn't care, and went back to the house to pack up his things.

It didn't take much time to hear a noise in the courtyard, and Suzaku went out to take a look, and saw that there were fourteen or five people standing in the courtyard, and Yao Biren was working hard to organize there.

Seeing Suzaku come out, Yao Biren pulled the throat of the male duck and shouted at the group of people.

"Stand up, your ——, is you, don't speak. Stand up! ”

When everyone saw Suzaku and knew that the main owner was her, they immediately shut up. Yao Biren walked up the steps and whispered to Suzaku.

In fact, there are not many people in the courtyard, there are two men and one female attendant. The rest of the people were tenants who rented farmland, and Yao Biren called them together.

"Niece, you come to reprimand them a few words, they all rely on us to eat, and there are no rules at all."

What the? Dependent on us for food? Who are you? Suzaku suppressed his anger and decided to wait and see, through him, just to learn about the situation of the subordinates and the tenants.

"Uncle Yao, just look at the arrangement, I don't understand anything, you are in charge."

That's what Yao Biren was waiting for. Immediately, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, he pretended to be the master, and began to lecture with his hands behind his back.

"Did you hear that, Miss Suzaku called me uncle, and if anyone else doesn't believe me, stand up and I'll take a look."

Suzaku watched silently, at first everyone was a little dissatisfied with Yao Biren, but at this moment, they didn't dare to speak, and silently lowered their heads, looking like they were resigned to their fate.

"Zhu Dalong, aren't you the fiercest call? Come on, come on, I'll take a look at you again. ”

The Chinese character named Zhu Dalong clenched his fists, and the green tendons on his forehead jumped straight, but he finally didn't stand up, sighed and lowered his head.

"Xiaocui, I didn't lie to you, I will serve my niece well in the future, I will not treat you badly."

The only girl, who is only one or two years older than Suzaku, is shaking this time.

Seeing that everyone was convinced, Yao Biren coughed and continued.

"For the sake of your obedience, you will not change people, but will do your own work as before. Alright, let's all disperse! ”

Everyone left one after another, but no one showed joy and went out without saying a word.

There were five people left in the courtyard, including Suzaku. In addition to Yao Biren and Xiaocui, the two subordinates are called Ah Da and Ah Er respectively. Ah Da and Ah Er are responsible for rough work, heavy work and errands. Xiao Cui is mainly responsible for serving the master, laundry, cooking, and cleaning the room.

Suzaku took out some silver taels that he found when he bought the house, handed them to Yao Biren to arrange daily expenses, and then dragged Xiaocui back to the house.

Suzaku is not at ease after all, and he can also see some clues, but he is not sure, so he needs to be sure again. Who knows, Xiaocui resisted very much, no matter what Suzaku asked, most of them didn't answer. Suzaku was very helpless, so he had to wait for a longer time to get along and slowly open his heart.

In the blink of an eye, at night, Suzaku finished washing, but he didn't feel sleepy at all, so he picked a book from the warehouse and read it under the lamp. The name of the book is "The Counterattack of the Peasant Girl Suzaku", which is a novel, which is very suitable for Suzaku's appetite and directly fascinated.

Xiaocui has been serving beside her, maybe she is a little tired during the day, and she is sleepy at the moment, her head is like a chicken pecking rice, and she keeps ordering.

Suzaku couldn't bear it, so he woke up Xiaocui and asked her to rest. Xiao Cui's reaction was very surprising, and she didn't want to rest. In the end, under the persecution of Suzaku, he reluctantly went back.

There are three bedrooms in the north house, one on the east side and two on the west side of the living room. Suzaku lives in one room on the west side, and the other room for Xiaocui to live, so it is convenient to take care of it. Xiaocui was very happy at first, but she didn't know why she didn't want to go back to sleep.

Suzaku was completely immersed in the book, and unbeknownst to him, a dark shadow crept out of the bedroom.

The gentle knocking on the door, the sound of the door opening, and the low-down argument did not distract Suzaku.

The effort was not great, the black shadow faded, and Xiao Cui opened the door and came out, holding a bowl in his hand.

"Girl, seeing that you stay up late and bother, I made a bowl of ginseng tea and brought it to you."

Suzaku opened the door and let Emerald in, smiling.

"Thank you, Xiaocui, put it there first, you go back and rest."

Xiaocui looked restless, had something to say but didn't dare to say.

"Then I'll drink tea first, save the cold and waste your kindness, so that you can sleep with confidence."

As he spoke, he picked up the tea bowl and drank it.

With a "snap", the tea bowl was knocked over to the ground.
