Bai Wanyi looked at him with cold eyes: "I asked you to receive the guests. Bring them here and then leave. If something goes wrong, who else should I look for if not you?"
The servant looked at Bai Wanyi and was speechless for a long time.
Xiaoyu, a second-class maid in the inner courtyard, defended herself, "Madam, you said it yourself. We didn't need to serve you. Today is a buffet. Let the ladies and young ladies help themselves. Now we are the ones who are to blame."
Bai Wanyi pointed at them and shouted angrily, "I'm the master! You must listen to me. Even if I tell you to die, you should still be grateful to me! You actually dare to confront me and say I gave the wrong order?"
"Chu Yun!" Bai Wanyi shouted.
Chu Yun took a step forward and bent down in front of her to receive the order: "Here."
Bai Wan pointed at Xiaoyu and said, "These servants are cunning and deceitful. Ordinary places won't tolerate them. Go tell the human traffickers to sell all the men to cold and bitter lands, preferably to mine and quarry! Sell all the women, regardless of age, to brothels! There are always patrons who don't care about age!"
Bai Wanyi bit the last two words hard, and only felt satisfied when he saw the servants all turned pale with fear, and Xiaoyu and a few maids crying loudly.
Green! Building!
Chu Yun suddenly looked up: "Madam, this is inappropriate!"
Bai Wanyi glared at her: "If I say it's suitable, then it's suitable! If you can't do it, then find someone who can!"
"Yes, I'll do it right away." Chu Yun didn't dare to argue anymore. She quickly went down and pulled Xiao Yu out: "Stop crying! Follow me!"
"You are trying to kill us!"
A servant woman yelled, bent over, and desperately rushed towards Bai Wanyi's waist. At her age, going to a place like that would be better for her to die! But even if she died, she wanted to vent her anger!
"Someone come!"
Bai Wanyi was startled and quickly dodged to the side. The old woman, who had tried her best, did not slow down even when she saw her dodge, and rushed straight past her. She hit the pillar in the house with a "bang", and blood instantly burst out from the corner of her forehead. In the next moment, she was silent with her eyes wide open.
The maids and servants inside and outside the house were all frightened when they saw this scene.
The servant laughed loudly: "Great! The wife of the Marquis of Pingyang forced someone to death. I want to see what you will do!"
Bai Wanyi's face turned red and white, not knowing whether it was from anger or fear. He said with trembling hands, "She killed herself by hitting her head! What does it have to do with me? Get out!"
Bai Wanyi originally wanted to tell him to open his mouth and smash it, but when he turned around and met those wide-open eyes, he changed his mind.
"You..." The servant wanted to curse, but Chu Yun covered his mouth.
"Get out of here!"
Chu Yun's hands and feet were cold. He didn't know where he got the strength from, but he covered his mouth with one hand and grabbed the servant's arm with the other, dragging him out.
More than thirty people were frightened by the tragic and bloody scene. When they reached the door, no one had recovered.
Chu Yun looked at the long street which was gradually getting darker, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled.
Xiaoyu was afraid that she would be sold to a brothel, afraid that she would end up like that woman. She grabbed Chuyun's arm and refused to let go: "Sister, please save me."
The other girls also looked at Chu Yun with tears in their eyes: "Sister, we can go anywhere, but please don't sell us to a brothel."
Chu Yun’s mind was filled with the thought of that old woman who died with her eyes wide open. Was he really going to let these people be handed over to traffickers and sold at will?
She closed her eyes and said, "I'll take you out and settle down first."
More than thirty servants not only had their private property confiscated, but they were not even given any extra clothes. They were kicked out wearing only this set of clothes.
Chu Yun found a place to accommodate these people, and then went to the back door of the Qin family to ask to see Zhenzhen.
Zhenzhen couldn't believe the news and asked again, "Are they going to be sold to a brothel?"
Chu Yun nodded. "Let's not talk about the servants for now. Among these people, there are four maids. One is the garden manager, and the rest are maids ranging from seven or eight years old to thirteen or fourteen years old."
Zhenzhen sighed, "What a sin!" Then she asked, "Where are their families?"
Chu Yun didn't tell Zhen Zhen that another person had been forced to death. He only said, "They are all in the mansion, and they didn't say what happened to them."
Although the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion became wealthy late, there were already some servants in the mansion when Old Lady Lu married into the family.
She came with a lot of servants as part of her dowry, plus the dowry brought by Old Madam Li, the servants from each room, and the servants bought in over the years, there were quite a few people in total.
In recent years, the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion has not purchased any servants, so these maids, servants and old women who were sold all have relatives in the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion.
Let’s not talk about those servants and maids for now. Although the old women are called old women, they are actually only in their thirties or forties. The housekeeper is only in her twenties. She has husbands and children at home, and some of them are even grandmothers.
If all such people were sold to brothels, what would happen to their families? Would the people left behind in the mansion still serve their masters wholeheartedly?
There are so many young ladies in the house. If they take something out or spread something or gossip about it, who can survive?
Obviously, Bai Wanyi didn't understand this at all.
Zhenzhen felt that she couldn't make a decision on this matter, so she asked Chuyun to wait a moment. She went to ask Qin Wan's opinion first, and then called Chuyun in.
Chu Yun knelt down as soon as she saw Qin Wan. The emotions she had been suppressing could no longer be hidden. She trembled and said, "This servant greets Miss Qin. Hello, Miss Qin."
Qin Wan asked her to get up and asked her about the matter again in detail.
Chu Yun didn't hide it this time. She told the story of the old woman who died in an accident, and then talked about the servants and boys: "I am scared and have no idea what to do, so I came to ask the young lady for advice. I know that the young lady can't control the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion now, but in my heart, I still trust the young lady. I don't ask the young lady to save them, but I ask the young lady to show me a way out."
Qin Wan was stunned for a moment after hearing this. Bai Wanyi's approach was truly...
Bo Ren was not killed, but he died because of her.
Qin Wan sighed softly, "If the Bai family wants to vent their anger on you and replace you, they'll definitely not just sell off the few people they have now. Zhenzhen, find someone to keep an eye on them. If anyone is selling, we'll buy them all."
"Since you've intervened, then you'd better intervene to the end." After saying that, Qin Wan also reminded Chu Yun: "You'd better not come here in the future. I don't want the Bai family to cause you trouble. It's also difficult for you in the mansion. If you encounter any difficulties, just send someone to pass on the message. Even if I can't help with other things, I can still lend a hand."
This is to completely remove Chu Yun from this matter, so as to prevent Bai Wanyi from causing trouble for Chu Yun again in the future.
This girl is smart and has good ideas, so Qin Wan doesn't mind helping her.
Chu Yun was surprised and delighted, and quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "Your servant thanks Miss Qin!"
"Okay, okay, get up quickly." Qin Wan asked someone to get up.
She also asked Zhenzhen to take Chuyun to find a familiar human trafficker, to check on those people first, and then bring the human trafficker over. She also had to give him some instructions.
After Chu Yun left, Qin Wan said to Tao Yao and the others, "The Bai family is really anxious. When a rabbit dies, the fox mourns. All creatures feel grief for their own kind. Now someone has died. I'm afraid the Marquis' Mansion will be in chaos."
