Chapter 16: Slapping the Vicious Cousin
Luo Zhiyan tried to coax and pull, but she didn't dare to use any force, which made her exhausted. She had no choice but to turn to Xie Zaozao for help: "Come over and take care of it!"
Xie Zaozao: "Let him cry."
Luo Zhiyan: ...Making him cry is not a problem, the problem is Mr. Fu’s hair!
Fortunately, Xiao Lihai was still a child after all, and his hair finally fell out of his hands. He looked at his empty little hands, pouted his little mouth, and tried to cry again.
Xie Zao Zao stepped forward, hugged the child, and the crying stopped abruptly.
The pitiful cub looked up at Xie Zaozao, his eyes watery and his little mouth pouting, obviously acting coquettishly.
Xie Zao Zao said, "You're crying already? You're useless."
Xiao Lihai: "Ah ...."
Xiao Lihai decided to ignore his mother and turned to Fu Yanzhi with a pitiful expression.
“Wuwuwu…”
The little Lihai waved his little hands at Fu Yanzhi, but Fu Yanzhi was unmoved. He took out a stone from his arms and put it in the child's hand.
The fair and tender baby looked at the heavy object in the palm of his hand, then looked at Fu Yanzhi eagerly, hummed a few times with some dissatisfaction, and stopped crying reluctantly.
The stone gradually emitted a faint light, and a pattern appeared in the middle, which was a huge whirlwind spinning rapidly.
This kind of whirlwind is a manifestation of extremely abundant spiritual power. Not to mention other families, even the Fu family, the leader in the Xuanmen, has not seen it for decades.
This kid is definitely a genius.
No wonder it can pass the spiritual power test given to adults.
"This child has a bright future if you take good care of him," Fu Yanzhi said calmly.
Xie knew early on that this child was good, after all, he had the blood of the Lin family.
Looking down at Xiao Lihai, Xiao Lihai took Fu Yanzhi's spirit stone and smiled happily. As a result, Fu Yanzhi reached out and took the spirit stone from his hand.
Xiao Lihai: "..."
Xiao Lihai cried loudly again.
Fu Yanzhi was unmoved.
Luo Zhiyan asked for him, "You are so talented, and your child has great potential. Why did you choose to be a maid in the Fu family instead of a mystic?"
"Because I'm lazy." Xie Zao Zao answered smoothly.
Luo Zhiyan: ...
In the end, nothing was asked. Luo Zhiyan didn't know how to explain to Fu Yanzhi. When she turned around, Fu Yanzhi left without even looking back.
It seems like he doesn't care about this matter at all.
That night, Xie Zaozao was rarely able to coax Xiao Lihai, so she had to resort to her ultimate method of coaxing a baby - helping his own mother to overcome the tribulation. Only then did the little guy fall asleep feeling aggrieved, whining in his dreams and feeling uneasy.
It was also on that night that Xie decided early on that she would see less of this man named Fu Yanzhi. After all, she didn't have a good impression of him, and her children didn't like him either.
*
Xie had guessed correctly early on that the night he stayed at the Fu family's house was indeed the third assessment, and only a few people passed. Including the following groups of people, only thirty people were finally gathered and entered the Fu family sparsely.
Old Master Fu burst into tears. He had been struggling for half a month and only managed to harvest thirty of them. If he shared even a fraction of them, he would have nothing left.
Shuyue was still explaining, "Old sir, it's not that our master doesn't want to recruit more people, it's just that our Tingshui Pavilion is quite special. Even if ordinary people want to stay, they can't. And the master doesn't like to make things difficult for people, so it's better to be more strict in the review process. As a result, fewer people leave."
The Fu family's members never sign life-long contracts, so it is normal for them to have a high turnover rate. In addition, the Fu family's location is indeed unusual.
The old man understood it, but when he thought of the empty scene in his yard, he felt sad and uncomfortable.
Shuyue immediately said politely, "Master said you can choose first, and we will divide the rest later."
The old man felt relieved. Although his nephew was stingy, he was filial.
While Mr. Fu was selecting people, an uninvited guest arrived.
Song Qiaoyue.
In addition to Min Lu, Song Qiaoyue also came with a bright and pretty girl with a long whip on her waist. When she saw Mr. Fu, she acted coquettishly: "Uncle Fu."
Mr. Fu smiled brightly when he saw her.
The girl's name is Baili Shan Ning. She is the youngest daughter of the head of the Baili family in Qinghe County. The Baili family is also one of the four major families. Mr. Fu has always been in the mood for marriage, so he brought Baili Shan Ning to the Fu family to study with the disciples.
"What's wrong, Shan Ning? If you have anything to say, tell Uncle Fu. Uncle Fu will satisfy you."
Baili Shan Ning smiled and said, "Uncle Fu, it's like this. The academy is short of staff recently, and we disciples have to do some odd jobs. I heard that there are new people here, and I was thinking about whether we could recruit a few of them to the academy."
Old Master Fu naturally agreed to his future niece-in-law: "Of course, Shan Ning, just take the one you like."
Baili Shanning smiled and pointed at Xie Zaozao: "Then it's her."
Mr. Fu was stunned for a moment, looking at Xie Zaozao who still had a child in her arms: "She? What kind of work can she do? How about you find someone stronger?"
Baili Shanning glanced at Song Qiaoyue, who nodded. She then turned around and said, "She's enough. They're just odd jobs. She's a careful person who takes care of children, so she's the perfect person. The Fu family doesn't have many people, so I won't compete with Uncle Fu for anyone."
Mr. Fu was very satisfied with Baili Danning's obedience: "Then you can take it first. I will pick out two good ones and send them to you later."
Baili Danning was very happy, but when his gaze turned to Xie Zaozao, he became a little impatient: "Let's go."
The three people turned around and left. Xie Zaozao didn't hesitate and followed them.
Only after she was out of Mr. Fu's sight did Baili Danning glance at Xie Zaozao with disdain: "Miss Song, is she the maid you mentioned who seduced the master into bed?"
Song Qiaoyue said hurriedly: "Yes, I'm afraid she will do something embarrassing in the Fu family, so it's better to keep her under my watch."
"That will only happen if you pass the disciple trial in two days." Baili Shanning said, "If you are not from the Fu family, then you have no right to discipline her."
After Baili Shan Ning finished speaking, he turned to look at Xie Zaozao with a look of disdain on his face: "I hate people who climb into the master's bed the most. After entering the Fu family, be honest."
After saying that, Baili Danning turned around and walked away quickly. She was proud by nature and had grown up surrounded by celebrities. She felt that it would be a loss of status if she said a word more to someone like Xie Zaozao.
After Baili Shan Ning left, Min Lu was also a little disdainful: "What? It's not like you're really marrying into the Fu family. Why are you pretending to be the mistress of the house and having to order everyone around?"
Song Qiaoyue murmured a few words with her, then turned to look at Xie Zaozao, her eyes full of malice: "I didn't expect you to be able to pass the last round of tests."
It must be because Mr. Fu felt sorry for his uncle, so he relaxed the conditions in the last round. Many people who passed today were ordinary people, which allowed Xie to take advantage of the loophole early.
"However, since you have entered the school, you will be a servant of the school in the future. If you don't obey, I will naturally discipline you."
The word "good" emphasized the tone, and the malice on Song Qiaoyue's face could no longer be hidden.
Xie Zao Zao didn't reply, she was unusually quiet.
Xie Zaozao: "Kill him."
The system was horrified: "Um, host, calm down—"
The next second, Xie Zao Zao grabbed Song Qiaoyue, and the force of his fingers was so strong that the system could hear the clicking sound.
"What you said sounds very nice. Why don't you try saying a few more words?" Xie Zaozao said expressionlessly.
Song Qiaoyue was strangled to the point of being unable to breathe, and her eyes were wide open.
This bitch dared to kill her in front of others???
Song Qiaoyue was strangled by Xie Zaozao so hard that she couldn't speak. She struggled to look at Min Lu next to her for help. Min Lu took a step back cautiously: "Don't be impulsive. If you strangle her to death, Mr. Fu will not let you go."
At this moment, alarm bells rang in Xie Zaozao's ears, and the main system kept issuing warnings.
[Warning, warning, the host is prohibited from killing important villains in advance. Violation will be punished. The punishment is about to begin - countdown three - two - one -]
The system screamed: "Host, please let go, you can't bear it."
Xie Zao Zao said: "Try it."
A sharp pain spread from the moment Xie Zaozao touched Song Qiaoyue's hand, as if countless blunt knives were rubbing through the skin and flesh, scraping the bones and pulling out the tendons.
The system looked distressed: "Host, please bear with me. We will not challenge the main system anymore. Be good——"
There was still no expression on Xie Zaozao's face, not even a frown.
The system finally had no choice but to say: "You, follow the plot and you can get rewards!"
"What reward?"
"what would you like?"
"Not sincere."
Song Qiaoyue's tongue was sticking out, and she looked like she was about to die at any moment.
"Hey, help you open the space!"
Xie Zaozao: “…”
System: "She's about to pee! Let go!"
Song Qiaoyue had already started rolling her eyes. It's not that she hadn't tried to resist, but she didn't expect Xie Zaozhao to be so strong that she couldn't resist at all.
Min Lu didn't take it seriously at first, thinking that an ordinary person could not strangle someone from the Song family to death. Unexpectedly, Song Qiaoyue was about to confess.
She was about to make a move, but Xie let go early.
Song Qiaoyue fell limply to her knees on the ground, covering her neck and coughing wildly. As soon as she caught her breath, she jumped up in anger and rushed over to beat Xie Zao Zao.
Give that bitch a hundred slaps!
Min Lu: "Well... the Fu family doesn't allow beating or scolding servants——"
Song Qiaoyue doesn't care, she just wants to fight!
As soon as she raised her hand, she was slapped in the face.
She covered her face and looked at Xie Zaozao in disbelief: "You, you hit me?"
"Well, Mr. Fu doesn't allow servants to beat or scold others, but he doesn't say servants can't beat or scold outsiders." Xie Zaozao answered calmly.
