Chapter 33 The Li Mansion settles down
Because it's still early, Xiaoman is not in a hurry. It may indeed be like what the uncle said, Xiaoman got up a little early. Along the way, few shops opened, and only a few were still busy preparing to open. I didn't expect to get up early and go shopping, so I might as well sleep more. After many inquiries along the way, Xiaoman finally found the Li family, and the Li family was really big and small, and when he walked to the main gate, he couldn't see the edge of the wall outside. The Li family's recruitment place is not at the main gate at a side gate, and the Li family's miscellaneous servants can't go from the main gate no matter what their status, this is the rule.
Xiaoman was startled when he walked to the side door, I should have come early by myself, but he was a little confused when he saw this long queue. There was no way for Xiaoman to line up in a regular manner, and after waiting for a long time for the door to open, an old man with a fifty-year-old appearance walked out of it, and he should be a housekeeper in his outfit.
"Calm down, I'm the second housekeeper of the Li family. is mainly responsible for the living and diet of the masters of the Li family, and the miscellaneous servants recruited now are responsible for the diet. Any of you who have a specialty can stand up. ”
There were a lot of people from the team, and Xiaoman also stood up. He doesn't know how to cook, but he can make wine. After waiting for a while, no one continued to stand up, and the butler spoke.
"Okay, the rest of us can go back, and come over next time when we're hiring." Come in with me. ”
led a group of people into Li's house. As soon as you enter, there is a tree-lined path lined with various trees. After walking for a while, I came to a house with the words "Examination Office" written on it. The big family is different, and being a miscellaneous servant has to be assessed. There was a table standing there alone, and he should be the person in charge of the assessment, and he didn't dare to sit down until the butler sat down next to him. Interrogated one by one, Xiaoman originally thought it was nothing, but a person who tried to fool him through was beaten by the family next to him and was covered in blood. This frightened Xiaoman, and his life was in danger as a handyman. After a long time, it was finally Xiaoman's turn.
"Hey, little one, how did you get in? We're recruiting handymen, not child labor. ”
"I'll make wine. ”
"You know how to make wine, you don't have a vat high, what wine can you make?"
"I make all kinds of grain wines, as well as fruit wines. If you don't believe me, I can tell you the general process, and my innate divine power, don't look at their big block, their strength is not as big as mine. ”
"That's interesting, and I'm not going to let you talk about the process. Do you see that stone lion at the door? If you can lift that little one, how about I keep you?"
Xiao Man saw a few stone lions in the direction he pointed, nodded and said yes and went out. I won't be assessed this time, I'm just waiting to see the excitement. Xiao Man went over and looked at the small stone lion, which should be a hundred or ten catties, and without hesitation, Xiao Man let the stone lion tilt with one hand, and then lifted it directly with the other hand. It's very easy to look like this, and everyone looks at it and shouts in their hearts, this is a monster!
The assessor's hand trembling slightly when he saw this scene, and the second housekeeper glanced at Xiaoman, his eyes were quite intriguing.
"How's that? Can I stay?"
turned around and looked at the second housekeeper, only to see the second housekeeper squinting and nodding slightly.
"You can stay. Name, age. ”
"My name is Mo Xiaoman. I'm more than six years old this year. ”
"Six... Six?"
"That's right. ”
With trembling hands, he wrote down his name and age, and Xiaoman was considered to have entered the Li family.
"Let's gather here early tomorrow morning, let's go back first. Got it?"
"Understood. ”
After going out, Xiaoman returned to the inn, and he will be able to enter the Li family tomorrow, this imperial city has time to visit, but the fifty taels have been spent, so he has to make it worth his money. It was already noon when he returned to the inn, and it was only then that Xiaoman remembered that his wild boar was still lying in the jade plate.
"Xiao Er, can you process ingredients?"
"Of course, we have first-class chefs here, as long as you are willing to spend money, you can be invited. ”
"Then how much does it cost to dispose of this wild boar?"
"It's nothing, five taels of silver is enough. ”
"Then you can carry it. ”
Xiao Er went down with half a pig on his back, and it didn't take long for a plate of dishes to be brought to Xiao Man's house. Xiaoman tasted it really good, and the belly tumbling of one person and one dog still didn't finish it. After eating, the two guys lay on the comfortable bed in a daze.
"Xiaotian, tomorrow we will have a black family to work. What do you say if people don't want you?"
"Wang"
Although Xiaoman doesn't understand dog language, he knows what Xiaotian wants to express.
"Yes, don't pull it down. The imperial city is so big, I'm afraid it won't be able to support the two of us. ”
"I said boy, you're boring, you can talk to a dog. ”
"Aren't you bored to stay like that every day?"
"The old man is turning over your soul sea, looking at your past, how can it be boring if it is interesting?"
"Don't you dare to be shameless?"
"You wait, the old man will change your soul sea and make you forget that you are a dog. ”
"I'm not a dog in the first place. ”
"Look, you forgot!"
Xiaoman was played like a fool in front of him, and he simply ignored his self-deprecation and was boring. Xiaotian, this guy is getting lazier and lazier, and he went to bed by himself not long after eating, Xiaoman also cultivated his soul by himself, and the two of them ate the rest of the dishes at night. Xiao Tian went back to sleep, but Xiao Man still chose to cultivate the divine soul. Xiao Tian was so sleepy that Xiao Man felt a little abnormal, and asked Lord Yan Soul, and the answer he gave was that he was relieved to be in cultivation. Early the next morning, Xiaoman woke up, picked up Xiaotian, who was sleeping, and went to Li's house.
After settling the silver taels, I followed yesterday's road to the Li Mansion. Sure enough, I came early again, and after waiting for a while, the people who passed the assessment yesterday came one after another, and waited for a while before the door opened. The second housekeeper led them into the Li Mansion, and yesterday they only arrived at the place of assessment. I officially went in today to know how rich the Li Mansion is, and some strange flowers and plants have never been seen even by Xiaoman, who grew up in the mountains. The pavilions and pavilions were everything, and when Xiaoman was looking at it, the housekeeper had already led them to the residence.
"From this day forward, this is your quarters, and you are staying inside, and someone will bring you clothes later. One more thing, there are not enough places on this side. You have to have one of you go to the wood-burning house, and you have to consult and see who is going. ”
"Second housekeeper, I can go to the firewood room to live. It just so happens that I have another dog, and it's not good to live with them and quarrel with them. ”
"That's fine. But you have to watch your dog and not let him run away. ”
"Okay. ”
In fact, Xiaoman also has his own plans, he is a cultivator. Staying with these people will inevitably lead to something being discovered. In this way, Xiaoman was stationed in the Li Mansion. Xiaoman actually has nothing to do, and the winemaking process is just waiting for those processes to be completed. In the meantime, he will be able to rest. The Li family didn't care about that little money at all, and it was not a way for him to be so idle, and the second housekeeper with a lively mind knew that he was born with divine power, so he arranged him in the patrol. Maybe because he was young, the second housekeeper had some special care for him, he took two jobs and got two salaries, and he also raised his rank by one level. In this way, Xiaoman can get 1,000 taels a month, which makes his beautiful snot bubbles come out.
Brew a drink once in a while, and usually train yourself when you find time to patrol. That's his day-to-day. Soon Fugami knew that the patrol had joined a little one, how young he was, only six years old. There are always a lot of people looking at him whenever Xiaoman is patrolling, and Xiaoman doesn't care about this at all. Today it was Xiao Man's turn to patrol again, Xiao Man changed his clothes and gathered with a stick taller than himself. It's been a while since I've been here, and Xiaoman is almost as mixed up with a few of them, and a few people are laughing and starting to patrol.
"Xiaoman, why did you come to the Li Mansion to do chores at such a young age?"
"I've got to survive, don't I?"
"Where's your father?"
"I haven't seen them a few times since I was a kid, and they always say they're busy, and I don't know what they're busy with. Because I was bored, I wanted to come to the Imperial City to see the world. It just so happened that the second housekeeper was recruiting, so I didn't just come in. You said that I've been here for so long and haven't seen the big names in the Li Mansion, what do they look like?"
"To be honest, we haven't seen each other a few times, you just need to know that we all wear uniform clothes. Those maids are too, so the ones who dress differently from us are the big men of the Li family. Just remember not to mess with it. ”、
"Understood. ”
"That's right. You have to know don't mess with a little girl. There is a little girl in this Li Mansion, just like your age. This is the pearl of the entire Li family. It is also strange to say that the Li family is also strange, at that time, the ancestors of the Li family followed the emperor to fight the country. After conquering the country, the Li family obtained fiefs and status, and since then, the Li family has been a man, and it has always been. Until six years ago, the Li family ushered in the first little girl, that is, Li Qing'er. You don't know how happy the Li family was at that time, the sky over the entire imperial city was full of fireworks, for three days and three nights. The ancestor of the Li family was so happy that he spoiled her. Whatever she wants will be satisfied, she is really afraid of falling in her hand, and she is afraid of melting in her mouth. ”
Hearing him say this, Xiao Man was very curious, how could he always be a boy, isn't this kind of thing half the chance? If this is the case, then this little girl's status should be really high. After patrolling, Xiaoman returned to the firewood house, in fact, such a big Li Mansion didn't need to patrol at all, and no fool dared to provoke a few top forces in the imperial city. They are also symbolically pretentious, otherwise they will be laughed at by other families.
Back in the firewood room, Xiaoman began his own practice. Qi from all directions converged towards Xiaoman's sea of qi, and this situation lasted for a long time. Levels 6 to 7 have a shackle that has been locked for a long time. Today, Xiaoman faintly felt that the shackles were loosened slightly, and he accelerated the operation of qi, only to hear a click to lock Xiaoman's shackles and disconnect. Xiao Man successfully reached the seventh level, and when he was just about to be happy, Lord Yan Soul's voice remembered.
"Boy, compress your gas. How hard you can press, how hard you can press. Fast. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Man began to frantically compress the qi that had just broken through to the seventh level. Lord Flame Soul's voice was a little serious, Xiao Man knew that he couldn't harm himself, so there must be a reason for letting him do this.
