Seeing that Mrs. Zhou was going to find someone to question whether his words were true or false, the person who made the mistake was very nervous, because he knew very well that as long as Mrs. Zhou stepped out of the door of the study and asked someone casually, all the lies he just said would be ruthlessly exposed, and at that time, even if he sincerely repented and honestly confessed his sins, his future and fate would be ruined, because in the Zhou family, people with character problems will never be forgiven.

He tried everything in his heart to prevent Mrs. Zhou from going to someone for questioning, but after thinking about it, he suddenly found that the matter had reached the point where it was irreparable.

His whole body fell into a deep despair, his eyes lost their brilliance, his mood was extremely low, he had no time to think, after the truth of his lie was exposed, how the lord and the lady would clean themselves up, because there was a more important thing that always weighed on his heart, so that he had no time to care about anything else.

The matter that pressed on his heart was even more important than his life, and if you want to understand it, you have to start with the age of this subordinate.

This subordinate was originally from a very humble background, and his family had been poor for generations, and his father was just a farmer who made a living on the outskirts of Huijing, planting a few acres of thin fields, and if the harvest was good, he could barely maintain the livelihood of a few members of the family.

Before the age of five or six, the life of their family was barely passable, after all, although his father had no ability, he had the strength and was very healthy.

After the busy farming, his father will also go to work as a coolie for others, earn some extra money, and improve the quality of life of the family.

When he was six years old, his father suddenly fell seriously ill, and because the family could not afford to seek medical treatment, his father's condition became serious within a few days, and finally he died.

The sudden death of his father suddenly put the family's life in a difficult situation, and for a while, the family could not even drink porridge, and could only drink cold water when hungry to satisfy their hunger and eliminate the feeling of hunger.

At that time, there were still eight people left in the family, and in addition to the mother of this subordinate, he also had four older sisters and two younger brothers, and as the eldest boy in the family, the burden of supporting the family fell on him at once.

Because his mother had no means of living, she could only ask someone to send him, who was only seven years old, to a large family, and to work as a companion for the son of a large family, in exchange for some money to maintain the family's livelihood.

The young man at that time had no complaints about his mother's actions, because he knew that the family must now be supported by him, otherwise the family might starve to death.

After going to a big family to be a scholar, although the noble son of that family was not too difficult for him, the subordinates of their family, seeing that he was young and had no backers, often bullied him behind his back, and even took pleasure in it.

The subordinate who had been tortured and abused, had the idea of escaping several times in his heart, but when he thought that the family life was not settled, once he escaped, the life of the family would immediately fall into a situation of no return.

Because he is too sensible, even if he returns home during the Chinese New Year, he will not tell his family about the hardships he suffered in that big family, because he knows that once his family knows the hardships he has suffered, they will be more uncomfortable than him.

For the sake of the family's life, he put down his dignity and worked as a scholar in that family for several years, and finally because of his age, he left that family, and then worked as a subordinate in the family of many officials and dignitaries, but his career as a subordinate has not been smooth, either he was excluded by other subordinates, or the owner thought he was too smart and kicked him out of the house.

Encountering bad luck several times made him afraid of being a subordinate, and he even discussed with his family several times that he planned to change his career and make another living.

The family originally planned to support his idea, but the family was poor and had no way to support him.

Because he has no capital to do business, he is old again if he learns the craft, and in the end, in desperation, he can only return to his old business and continue to look for job opportunities for dignitaries and dignitaries.

In the process of looking for an errand, his relatives told him a good news, saying that Zhou Ruhai's family was very good to his subordinates, and he might as well give it a try.

After listening to his relative's suggestion, this subordinate inquired carefully, and it was really like this, so he decided to come to Zhou's house to give it a try.

But after he came to Zhou's house, he was surprised to find that there were too many people who wanted to come here on an errand, and it was not so easy to go in on an errand at all.

Later, he entrusted a lot of people and found a lot of connections, and finally spent a little money before he was able to enter the Zhou family as an errand.

After coming to the errand, he deeply realized that what his relatives said at the beginning was really not a lie, the Zhou family not only had a good courtesy to his subordinates, but even the relationship between his subordinates was very good, except for the black sheep of Laifu, there had never been a bully.

After getting this good errand, this subordinate felt like a fish in water, and he even wanted to stay in the Zhou family for the rest of his life, because in this way, his family would have no worries about food and clothing.

It is precisely because of this thought in his heart that he is careful every time he works, and he has never made a mistake in the process of being on an errand, what he didn't expect was that just because he didn't say a word right, he was about to face a catastrophe.

He is not worried about his life or death, but he is really not at ease with his family, although his four sisters have married and have in-laws, but each of them is very difficult, and it is difficult for them to let them have a few sisters, support their mother, and take care of their two younger brothers.

When he thought of the starvation of his mother and younger brothers, his heart was like a knife, and he even regretted for a moment what he had just lied about, but he also knew in his heart that something had happened, and even if he regretted it, there was no way to make up for it.

Just when he was suffering and in great pain, he suddenly heard that his master prevented Mrs. Zhou from going to someone for questioning, which suddenly made him see the hope of life.

His eyes widened to see Madame Zhou's reaction.

As a result, Mrs. Zhou's reaction also made him breathe a sigh of relief.

Mrs. Zhou not only stopped going to people to question her, but even turned around and praised Zhou Ruhai for her high demeanor.

After seeing Mrs. Zhou's performance, the subordinate who made a mistake finally breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart, because he finally understood that Mrs. Zhou didn't really plan to go out to ask someone to question, she did it just for her master.

This subordinate originally thought that things had developed to this point, and he would definitely be fine, but he was in a relaxed mood, but he heard Mrs. Zhou praising his master at the last moment, and suddenly said that the subordinates who ran errands in the Zhou family were all good people, and if they had bad character, they couldn't stay, and these words suddenly embarrassed the scene.

Because just now in the courtyard, his own young master had just dealt with the big villain Laifu, but at this moment, Mrs. Zhou said that all the people in the family were good, didn't it be clear which pot was not opened? And in his own master's sound, these words are all sarcastic about him, after all, Laifu, the big villain, was pulled up by him, if it weren't for today's young master's discerning and seeing the tricks of this wicked man, with his master's ability, he would not be Laifu's opponent at all.

After perceiving the tension of the atmosphere, the subordinate quickly stood up straight, and did not dare to come out of the atmosphere when he stayed in place, for fear that if he did not pay attention, he would anger his master again, after all, his own master is now angry and has nowhere to spill.

"Hey, look at me talking here, I don't have a score." Mrs. Zhou knew that she was speechless, and hurriedly went back to make up for it, "Even if our family rules are strict, when the master has a clear sense of everything, and the rewards and punishments are clear, it can't stand one or two black sheep, after all, people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, and when they meet those guys with ill intentions, no matter how holy the master is, it is difficult to see their true faces, and it is inevitable to be deceived by them for a while, which is no wonder that the master is the master, and can only blame these bad people, who are too despicable and shameless."

Sir, you say I'm right, right? ”

The subordinate who made a mistake almost didn't laugh out loud when he heard these words from the sidelines, thinking that Mrs. was not completely sarcastic about the lord just now, and now she actually forced her lord to speak and express her position, which is simply incredible.

After listening to what his wife said, Zhou Ruhai's face turned even redder, he first coughed lightly, then looked down at the ground, and muttered: "It seems that it is, how can a scholar like us, who has read sage books since childhood, understand the thoughts of those wicked people." ”

After seeing her master's performance, Mrs. Zhou suddenly realized that what she just said was reckless again, and at this time, Mrs. Zhou wanted to resolve the embarrassment, but she was powerless, and she was afraid of saying too much wrong, so in the end she could only obediently shut her mouth.

For a while, the study fell into silence, the atmosphere was a little depressed, Mrs. Zhou saw her master's uncomfortable expression, and at the same time blamed herself in her heart, she blamed the person who made the mistake, because she felt that the whole thing was caused by him, if he hadn't caused the waves first, how could she say those stupid things?

It's good now, I see that I want to have a big meal for my son, but my lord is angry with himself, with a constipated expression, and if my son comes in later, ask my lord what happened, how do you let him answer?

There was nowhere to vent the anger in her heart, and Mrs. Zhou vented all her anger on the subordinate.
