Chapter 3 Life Begins to Change
Xiao Wu covered his face, obviously not expecting Ma Guan Si to suddenly slap him.
After all, according to the seniority of his relatives, Ma Guan Si is still his uncle and cousin, and he is also good to him on weekdays, so there is no reason to beat him for no reason.
Suddenly, he had a bad premonition in his heart.
Before Xiao Wu could speak, Uncle Ma had already walked up to Lin Miao, took down the wooden stick against Lin Miao's arms, and greeted a few family members, and said angrily, "A group of bastard things, even the young master dares to tie up?" ”
Hearing the word 'young master', Xiao Wu's head was covered for a moment, and he sat on the ground with a stagger, he didn't expect that what this 'beggar' said before was actually true.
I thought to myself, this is the end, and I scolded secretly, damn, good young master, you don't let it go properly, what kind of role-playing are you playing.
But this wronged Lin Miao.
The rest of the family members also weakened their legs at this time, but fortunately they did not fall down thanks to the support of wooden sticks, but they all looked like earth, as if they had been sentenced to death.
Lin Miao moved her arms, and only felt a burst of soreness, especially where she had been beaten a few times, and now it was even more painful.
Wiping the ashes on his face, he snatched the wooden stick from Uncle Ma's hand and ...... Bang...... Bang......
"Ah...... Yes...... Ah......h
They all looked at Uncle Ma one after another, but Uncle Ma just stood aside and watched quietly, without saying a word, completely ignoring a few people.
After the beating, Lin Miao threw the wooden stick in his hand to the ground, exhaled, and said very happily, "You hit me seven times, and I returned you seven times, and it was flattened." ”
And Lin Miao didn't know that his simple words made these people feel relieved.
At this time, one of the family members slowly raised his hand, "Less...... Young master, I understand the reason, if you are wrong, you will be punished, but I will be honest, this is not fair. ”
Lin Miao was stunned, "What's unfair?" ”
The guy rubbed the place where he was beaten and pouted, "You hit them seven times, but you hit me eight times." ”
When Lin Miao heard this, he thought to himself, how could this person be a strange species......
Not only Lin Miao, but the rest of the people present also had this idea.
Then Lin Miao smiled, leaned over and picked up the wooden stick on the ground and walked towards a few people, "Then be fair." ”
"Ah...... Yes...... Ah......h
"Zhao Yiming, you melon skin."
……
Nanjia Houfu Courtyard.
"Sir, that's the way it is."
Uncle Ma stood in front of the hall and talked about what had just happened.
On the main seat of the hall sat an old man about the age of Mo Guxi, and on the side seat sat two middle-aged men, and the person on the outer seat was Nan Shengwu.
The old man touched his beard and turned his head to look at the side seat, "What do you two think?" ”
The middle-aged man on the inner seat nodded his head and said, "According to what Uncle Ma said, I think this child is not bad, Lao Jiu, you went to pick up this child, you should know better, right?" ”
Nan Shengwu first said, "Father, fourth brother, don't hide it from you, this child still holds a grudge against the Nan family, my brother-in-law ......"
Speaking of this, Nan Sheng paused for a moment, and saw that the old man did not react, so he continued, "Erzhu told him everything in the past, so he ......"
"But this child's personality is not bad, filial piety, honest, able to endure hardships, and tolerant of people, but he may be a little impulsive in doing things."
After speaking, Nan Shengwu looked at the old man again, and the middle-aged man and Uncle Ma also looked at the old man.
The old man sighed, his face was a little melancholy, "It's all the blame on the old man, in order to climb the high branches and force Caidie to marry into the Wang family, if it weren't for this, she would definitely be still alive in the world now." ”
The three of them also sighed when they heard this.
After a pause, the old man waved his hand at the three of them, "You guys go down first, I want to be alone." ”
When Nan Shengwu was about to walk out of the door, he heard the voice of the old man behind him, "By the way, Shengwu, go and ask the best gentleman for my grandson to come back." ”
When he heard the old man say the word 'grandson', Nan Sheng's eyes flickered, and he nodded heavily.
From the 'wild seed' more than ten years ago, to the 'son of Caidie' before, and then to the current 'grandson', his father has changed.
After Nan Sheng did not receive his father's instructions, he found someone to make a notice and posted it in all corners of Tianshui City.
For a time, the city was in an uproar, and for nothing else, just a few simple words on this proclamation.
"Mr. Nanfu is looking for a teacher, consciously talented, and self-sufficient."
And Lin Miao didn't know what was going on outside.
Before the old wound healed and added a new one, the doctor gave him bruising medicine and let him lie in bed to recuperate.
There was a knock on ......the door, and then I heard the maid say, "Young master, the housekeeper asked me to send these things to you." ”
Lin Miao endured the pain and got up and pulled the door open, "It's you, come in." ”
Standing at the door was one of the two pretty girls, holding a brocade box in her hand.
The pretty girl nodded, walked into the room in three or two steps, and gently placed the brocade box on the table.
Lin Miao glanced at the brocade box, the style was a little peculiar.
Then he stepped forward and pushed the teacup on the table to the maid's side, pouring tea into the cup, "Come, drink water." ”
This is a habit that Lin Miao has developed in the village, and guests always have to hand over a glass of water when they visit.
The maid suddenly knelt down at this time, and said pitifully, "The slave maid had no eyes before, and she misrecognized the young master, please punish the young master." ”
This time it didn't make Lin Miao possible, where had he experienced such a thing.
Seeing the maid who was more beautiful than the village flower kneeling in front of her, Lin Miao was a little confused and a little embarrassed.
Lin Miao felt that somewhere in his body was gradually straightening, which made him blush instantly, and hurriedly turned around, "It's okay, it's okay, you get up." ”
Without waiting for the maid to speak again, she said again, "It's nothing, you go down first, I want to rest." ”
The maid was visibly relieved, but still a little restrained.
"Thank you for the young master's grace of not punishing, the slave and maid retired first, if the young master has something, just call it." The maid bowed before getting up and going out.
"Huh~" glanced back and found that the maid had gone out, Lin Miao breathed a sigh of relief, but she had an indescribable feeling.
I thought, isn't this Nan family a bad person, letting such a beautiful girl do chores.
Lin Miao stepped forward to open the brocade box and found that there were three booklets inside.
"Nanfu Planning Atlas", "Roster", "Nan Clan Genealogy"
He looked at the thick and thin booklets on the table, and did not understand what the butler meant by sending these things.
Throwing the book on the bed, Lin Miao was ready to rest, but a stick of incense was gone, and he didn't fall asleep.
When she had nothing to do, Lin Miao picked up the booklet and flipped through it.
There are only a few hundred lines on the "Nanfu Planning Atlas", outlining the land occupation and distribution of each house in the Nanjia.
The "Roster" contains a lot of content, recording the age, name and errand area of all the servants in Nanfu.
The "Genealogy of the Nan Clan" records the names and personnel relationships of the Nan family's bloodline.
"Young master, the food is brought to you."
Just as Lin Miao was concentrating on looking through the Nan clan genealogy, the voice of the maid came from outside the door.
Lin Miao was stunned, it was noon so soon? didn't think much about it, put down the booklet in his hand, and opened the door for the maid.
The maid held the tray and winked at Lin Miao, "Young master, you answered in the room, and the slave and maid pushed the door in by themselves, and the slave and maid did not dare to bother the young master to open the door in person." ”
After that, he stepped forward and put the food plate lightly on the table, turned his head and asked Lin Miao, "Young Master, can you see if these dishes are to your liking?" ”
Sitting at the table, there were eight small bowls less than the size of a palm on the table, with different dishes in the bowls, all the colors and fragrances, Lin Miao didn't know where to start for a while.
And at this time, the maid's words made him dumbfounded.
"Young master, if it's inconvenient for you, I can feed you."
