Chapter 88: Killing Chickens and Monkeys
"Action? Naturally, there should be action, otherwise how can we be worthy of their hard work. Bai Luochu clenched the silver needle in his hand, obviously having an idea.
"Master, then you are going to ......" Cai Ling's words were interrupted by Bai Luochu before he finished speaking.
"Uncle's family is back?" Bai Luochu asked.
Cai Ling heard Bai Luochu's sudden question, it was still such an unrelated topic, and she was puzzled, but she still answered honestly: "I haven't come back yet, but I heard what other people in the house mean should be back soon." β
Bai Luochu nodded, and then opened his mouth and ordered: "Send these foods back untouched, I'll go to the door." β
"Master, it's such a big day, what are you doing at the door?" Cai Ling saw that Bai Luochu's expression was wrong, so she asked a few words with concern.
"What are you doing? My good uncle gave me such a big gift before I returned to the house, so I naturally wanted to go out to greet me and return the gift by the way. Bai Luochu smiled, but the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes, which made people tremble.
"Girl, the sun is too big outside, you might as well go to the main hall and wait, those servants in the house heard that the uncle came back one by one very attentively, and set up a small banquet in the main hall, saying that they were going to pick up the wind and wash the dust for the uncle. Cai Ling really felt that her master didn't use any food at noon, and if she went to stand against the sun again, I was afraid that her body would not be able to stand it.
Bai Luo pondered for a moment when he heard this, and felt that this was indeed a good idea, in the final analysis, this is a family affair of the General's Mansion, and there is a way that the ugliness of the family is not publicized, if people see it, and then arrange it, I am afraid that it will not be beneficial to the reputation of the General's Mansion. He nodded, indicating that he agreed with Cai Ling's suggestion.
So the master and servant went out of the door together, one went to the dining room to bring the spoiled food back untouched, and the other went to the main hall, waiting for the uncle's family to come across.
At this moment, a small episode is happening in a carriage not far from the capital.
"Didn't you say that the girl is dead, why is she back now? It was a woman of some age who spoke.
A pair of triangular eyes hang upside down, the eyebrows are thin and sparse, and the eyebrows are too close, making it seem that the whole eyebrow is a little too narrow. The cheekbones are high, and the cheeks are sunken because of the thinness. The nose and mouth are also raw, small and angular, and they look uncomfortable and snarky.
The middle-aged man who was questioned had a good appearance, but he seemed to have been addicted to lust for many years, and now the whole person showed a sense of decadence.
Now that he was asked by his wife, he was naturally a little impatient, and he replied when he opened his mouth.
"How do I know, if I don't say that this cheap girl has a hard life, she can come back alive after reaching such a point. But we can calculate her once, and naturally we can calculate her a second time, and this time when she goes home, it will be fine if she is willing to be obedient, but if she is still as stinky as before...... Then don't blame me for being an uncle. β
"Father, she is the serious master of this general's mansion, we might as well think about it, how to hold her, this is the safest way. In case the top of the day checks it out, we will have an explanation at that time, right? lest the time comes, this house is small, and I am afraid that I will not even be able to protect my life. β
The one who spoke was a girl about the same age as Bai Luo's early years, similar in appearance to the middle-aged man in the carriage, obviously the daughter of the couple.
"Ouch, it's just that our good daughter is thoughtful, not like your mother, who knows what to do all day long, and when something happens, not only can it not help but cause trouble. β
The middle-aged man glanced at the woman with disdain in his eyes.
Although the woman was angry, she couldn't do anything in front of her daughter, so she could only threaten in the man's ear: "When you go back, my mother will make you look good." β
The man suddenly flinched, as if he was very frightened by the woman.
The two of them were jubilant, and they didn't pay attention to the look in their daughter's eyes at all, full of contempt for themselves.
The carriage is getting closer and closer to the capital, and the wishful thinking of the three people in the carriage is getting louder and louder, but what they didn't expect was that Bai Luo had already "crushed" their "abacus" at the beginning, so that they couldn't calculate it even if they wanted to.
Bai Luochu was about to step into the main hall when someone appeared and stopped him.
"You can't go over, this main hall is full of meals for my uncle, what if you don't get it clean. "It was a maid who spoke.
The maid looked arrogant as if she was the master, and Bai Luochu was just a minion.
Bai Luochu didn't want to waste his energy on such an inconsequential person, so he went straight to the main hall, without paying attention to this maid.
When this maid saw that she was being ignored, she immediately became angry, and directly went to pull Bai Luochu, and her mouth was full of words: "You can't go, do you really think of yourself as a master?"
When Bai Luo first heard this, he suddenly flicked his sleeves and threw the man to the ground, and asked sharply, "What do you say?
The maid didn't know whether she fell hard or was shocked by Bai Luochu's current momentum, and she looked at Bai Luochu in a daze for a moment and forgot to reply.
Bai Luochu squatted down, leveled his gaze with the maid, raised his hand to pinch the maid's chin, and applied spiritual power to his hand, not to mention, he used his spiritual power to crush the spirit of the maid. Let the maid struggle.
"You'd better remember what I'm going to say next, lest I die unexplained. The maid seemed to know that she was scared and wanted to break free, but how could Bai Luochu give her a chance, her subordinates worked harder, and said: "Since you call your uncle uncle, then you should understand that he is not the serious master of this general's mansion, and I am the only serious master of this general's mansion."
It's just me, the orphan of the former general of the soldiers and horses-Luo Chu!"
The maid had long been frightened to the point that her three souls had lost her seven souls, and her whole person trembled as if she had become a sieve, as if she would faint at any time.
"This general's mansion is mine, I can go wherever I want, I can't tolerate anyone to put a beak, a mere maid really thinks that you will have a backer when your uncle comes back soon? It's really naΓ―ve, since you are so anxious to show loyalty to your uncle, then I can't stop it, but now that you are scared by me like this, you can't stop me, what do you say, it's better for you to die." β
