Chapter 27: Passers-by in the Ancient World 1
How could a person who is excellent in all aspects turn out to be such a playboy?
Ke Xiaoxia felt that there was something fishy going on.
But she had no access to such things, as she was just a maid in the kitchen.
Although I worked as a maid in someone else's home, I had no worries about food and clothing during the past five years. In fact, because I was a maid in the kitchen, I could eat better.
Ke Xiaoxia has been in the Jiang Mansion for five years, and has gained a lot of weight compared to when she was first sold here.
She has a round face and looks quite cute.
Due to the nature of her work, Ke Xiaoxia had never met the two owners of this house and only heard about them from other people.
Prime Minister Jiang has a very good reputation.
As for Jiang Sheng, even with a filter, he could only say: "The young master is still young, he just likes to play around a little, but he will be more stable after he gets married."
Ke Xiaoxia did not comment on this.
If Jiang Sheng is the male protagonist, then he will definitely become a good person in the future, but who knows if Jiang Sheng is the male protagonist?
In the previous world, Ke Xiaoxia could guess the male and female protagonists at once because her goal was clear.
In this life, the goal is too vague to be determined.
If you want to know the plot, that's not impossible, but you need to spend 10 points to purchase it from the system.
10 points were enough for her to buy a disposable space grid, and Ke Xiaoxia was not going to waste that money.
She should just be her maid peacefully.
The days of being a maid were quite peaceful for Ke Xiaoxia. They were in the kitchen, and as long as there were no problems with the food, they could not get close to the Prime Minister, so basically nothing happened.
The servants' room is not too far from the kitchen, so I basically go there every day.
Kitchen, bedroom, toilet.
There may be one free day in a month, which can be considered a holiday.
As a third-class maid of the lowest rank, Ke Xiaoxia's monthly salary was half a tael of silver.
Ke Xiaoxia didn't have anything to spend money on, so she saved all the money.
As for whether the parents who sold her will come and suck her blood?
That's impossible.
They sold her to a matchmaker, and then the matchmaker sold her to the Jiang Mansion.
In other words, her parents in this life have no idea where she is.
Unless she has cerebral palsy and goes back on her own initiative.
But she is not mentally ill, why should she go back?
Because he worked in the kitchen, Ke Xiaoxia learned a lot of chef's skills.
Unfortunately, I didn’t learn anything except becoming more proficient in controlling the heat.
Although the chef cooks in front of them, some of the ingredients are exclusive secrets.
However, after spending every day in the kitchen, Ke Xiaoxia still feels that her cooking skills have improved a lot.

Just when Ke Xiaoxia was content to be a maid, Jiang Shengcheng's opportunity to start a stable family came.
Prime Minister Jiang asked the emperor to issue an edict to grant a marriage between Jiang Sheng and General Dingyuan's daughter Lin Jing.
General Dingyuan's rank was not high, only the fifth grade.
However, his daughter Lin Jing is quite famous. She has loved wielding swords and guns since she was a child.
Maybe because he has been practicing martial arts since childhood, Lin Jing is taller than some men.
It has been two years since I came of age, and no one has come to propose marriage to me.
When Prime Minister Jiang asked for permission to grant the marriage, the emperor was stunned.
"Prime Minister, are you sure it is Lin Jing, the daughter of General Dingyuan?"
Prime Minister Jiang said with certainty: "I am sure that my child is naughty and needs a lady like this to discipline him."
Since the father had said so, the emperor did not say anything more and directly issued an edict to grant the marriage.
Now the imperial edict has arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion.
When the eunuch announced the decree.
Jiang Sheng was completely stunned.
Although he was a playboy, he also knew the importance of a matter. He accepted the imperial eunuch's order with a bit of confusion, took money from the eunuch who announced the order, and sent the eunuch away before he started to go crazy.
"Why did you ask the Emperor for a marriage?!"
"The person to be married is Lin Jing?!"
"A woman who is as tall as me and can fight better than me, what on earth are you thinking? Have you ever considered what I think?!"
Jiang Sheng is really going crazy.
Prime Minister Jiang was exceptionally calm: "You know what you are like. Can marrying a gentle and virtuous woman control you?"
It would have been better if he didn't say it. Jiang Sheng got even angrier after he said it.
He just started throwing things around the house.
Prime Minister Jiang: "The imperial decree has been issued. You must marry her."
Jiang Sheng sneered: "Marry her then. There are still more than three months before the wedding. It won't delay me from taking a concubine."
Prime Minister Jiang frowned, and Jiang Sheng had already started running out.
"Catch him and lock him up."
The servant responded and left.
Jiang Sheng didn't run away. He planned to find someone he liked in the Jiang Mansion, just to annoy Jiang Mingzhi and annoy Lin Jing.
Coincidentally, Jiang Sheng was caught not far from the kitchen.
At that time, Ke Xiaoxia and a few maids were secretly watching the fun.
While Jiang Sheng was struggling, he saw Ke Xiaoxia and the others.
Not only Ke Xiaoxia and her friends were watching the fun, but also the maids cleaning and serving tea not far away...
Jiang Sheng's struggles gradually weakened, and finally he stopped struggling.
Prime Minister Jiang came over and asked, "Have you had enough of the trouble?"
"Am I the one making a fuss? This is all your fault. You insisted on asking His Majesty to grant the marriage."
Jiang Sheng's tone was complaining, but his attitude was much calmer.
Prime Minister Jiang had no intention of explaining, and only said, "Taking a concubine is not an option."
"Then I just want a personal maid, right?"
Jiang Sheng emphasized the word "close", and this time Prime Minister Jiang didn't say anything else: "Okay."
"Then I'll choose now."
Jiang Sheng looked up, glanced around casually, and then pointed casually at Ke Xiaoxia.
Ke Xiaoxia really wanted to hide behind the maid next to her.
But everyone's eyes were already looking over here.
Jiang Sheng: "It's you."
Ke Xiaoxia: “…”
*
Ke Xiaoxia got a promotion.
She was promoted to Jiang Sheng's personal maid, with a separate room, and her monthly salary increased from half a liang of silver to two liang of silver.
She no longer had to light the fire, wash vegetables, or clean the house. She just had to take good care of Jiang Sheng.
It's the kind of serious service.
No one in the Jiang family thought that Jiang Sheng had taken a fancy to Ke Xiaoxia.
They felt that Jiang Sheng was just using Ke Xiaoxia on purpose to anger Lin Jing, who had not yet gotten to know the family.
Not only did they not envy Ke Xiaoxia, they even felt a little sympathy for her.
"I don't know if the future young lady will be easy to get along with. If not, what are you going to do, Xiao Xia?"
Xiaolan, who lives in the same room, sounded particularly worried.
Ke Xiaoxia, who was packing up to move, couldn't help but sigh: "I hope the future young lady can get along better."
Ke Xiaoxia was a little annoyed.
Having experienced her past life, Ke Xiaoxia knew very well why Jiang Sheng chose her.
But Jiang Sheng is getting married soon.
Ke Xiaoxia didn't want to serve Jiang Sheng.
It's a pity that she is just a little maid and has no human rights.

That evening, Ke Xiaoxia moved to Shaoguangyuan where Jiang Sheng lived.
Maybe because there is no mistress in the Jiang Mansion, Jiang Sheng lives a rough life.
As the only young master in the Jiang family, Shaoguangyuan has few young maids, only four older women.
Two book boys and eight servants.
Ke Xiaoxia was the first maid.
The servant was on guard at night, so Ke Xiaoxia slept soundly.
The next morning, Ke Xiaoxia was still hesitant about whether to help Jiang Sheng get up.
She has never done this and has no experience.
Ke Xiaoxia slowly arrived at Jiang Sheng's door.
