Leng Lingfeng's heart was broken. He knew that Miss Bai must have suffered a lot of grievances while he was away, which was why she was so heartbroken.
Zhang Mama spoke slowly and deliberately, "Madam, Xiao Lu is late every morning, doesn't clean properly, and doesn't know proper etiquette. I really can't teach her anymore. Please find someone else to teach her."
The egret glared angrily with her round eyes. She wasn't that stupid; it was clearly this old woman who was being too picky.
"Madam, I used to be the daughter of a good family. I came here because I heard that the Qingping Sect was charitable and generous."
Granny Zhang forced me to do chores every day and taught me manners. I tried my best to learn, but she was still not satisfied. She would beat me with a stick and wouldn't give me food.
As she spoke, she started crying again.
Yan Yunting and Leng Lingfeng both felt a little embarrassed. She admired the Qingping School so much, yet she was wronged here. It was really unfair.
As Mingyuexi listened, her brows furrowed more and more.
"Since you have sold yourself into slavery, you should naturally obey the rules. If you don't like it here, you can pay the ransom and leave."
Yan Yunting suddenly realized, "That's right, how could she, as a servant, be so rude to her master?"
His face darkened, and he stopped looking at the egret.
Leng Lingfeng felt more and more heartbroken as he listened. He was wrong; he shouldn't have made her sign the indenture.
Bai Lu felt embarrassed upon hearing this. She had been in this world for a month and naturally knew that it was a martial arts world.
It's very chaotic outside. If you're not careful, you could lose your life. How can a weak woman like her venture out into the world?
Bai Lu looked at Xiao Li and wondered how she could be so lucky. Her father was the sect leader, her wife doted on her so much, she had a younger brother who was devoted to her, and even her fiancé was such an outstanding man.
The egret was truly unwilling; how wonderful it would be if she could dress up as a young lady.
Unfortunately, all of this belonged to others and had nothing to do with her.
Bai Lu lowered her head. She didn't want to be kicked out. She still wanted to learn some martial arts at the Qingping Sect so she could protect herself.
Seeing that she was silent, Mingyuexi offered her solution.
"Xiao Lu and Leng Lingfeng will both be fined three months' wages, and their wages will be given to Zhang Mama as compensation."
"yes."
The egret reluctantly agreed.
Leng Lingfeng didn't care. Three months' salary wasn't much, and he really shouldn't have laid a hand on Granny Zhang.
Xiao Li stopped Leng Lingfeng, "Senior Brother, shouldn't you apologize to Granny Zhang? You hit her and just left like that?"
Leng Lingfeng's lips twitched, but he finally said, "I'm sorry."
Then he ran away as fast as he could. He was so ashamed that he couldn't bear to stay any longer.
Zhang Mama was also instructed by Xiao Li to find a doctor to apply the medicine. Only when the four of them were left in the room did Ming Yuexi ask curiously.
"Ah Li, if you don't like that girl, you can just sell her off. Why keep her around?"
If her daughter hadn't insisted on keeping someone, how could she have only fined her three months' wages?
"Mother, I know what I'm doing, so please don't worry about it."
Mingyuexi had no choice but to go with her daughter. After all, she was one of her own, so she didn't care.
Yan Yunting was also puzzled, "Ali, why are you being so disrespectful to Ling Feng? Did you two have a fight?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Xiaoran immediately began to complain.
“Dad, you don’t know, my sister just kicked him lightly, and he pretended to fall down and even cried out in pain.”
Judging from his appearance just now, he wasn't injured, which further proves that he was faking it from the beginning.
