Chapter 660: The foot-washing girl wants to get promoted (3)
"Thank you, Madam, for the reward."
Shi Yi stroked the bracelet with his fingers, and looked at it with such care and appreciation that Sui'er couldn't help but sneer, "Look at how petty she is. She really doesn't deserve your reward." "What are you talking about? Why don't you go back to work?" The eldest wife glared at Sui'er, and Sui'er left reluctantly.
"Madam, Sister Sui'er is right. In fact, I really don't deserve what you gave me..." Shi Yi wanted to take off the bracelet and return it to its owner, but her hand was held down. The eldest wife pretended to be unhappy and said, "It's given to you. You're pushing and giving. It's really annoying."
"Madam, you're so kind." Shi Yi touched the bracelet with more care and appreciation. In fact, she was more sorry that Sui'er's fighting ability was not strong, otherwise she wouldn't have to wear the bracelet on her hand.
"Go to the master's East Courtyard to serve him tonight. Remember not to make him unhappy." The eldest wife closed the dressing box and walked towards her bedroom, her eyes full of contempt. She is just a young girl, she can't make any trouble, let's see what kind of luck she has after a while. If she really catches the master's eye and is favored, then find a way to send her out of the house. Or, let her stay with the master. A girl who can't have children, and who comes from her Chunyuan, the master will always miss her a little when he sees her.
"Thank you, madam, thank you, madam." Shi Yi put her fingers carefully on the table, deliberately pretending to be narrow-minded but grateful. Seeing this, the eldest lady was much more satisfied and raised her hand to let her go.
Since the master has asked Shi Yi to serve in the East Courtyard, Shi Yi naturally doesn't have to live in the remote servants' room. Wu'er took her to live in a small room in the East Courtyard.
Shi Yi walked in with her bag, her eyes widened.
Compared to the servants' room where 20 or 30 people slept on a large bunk bed, the conditions here were so good that they could be called luxurious: there was a single carved bed, a special bathtub, a small table, a jade screen, and a sandalwood box for clothes.
She couldn't help but look back at Wu'er and asked, "Is this really my place?"
Wu'er didn't expect that the master would vacate this room for her to live in. Her face was still cold, "If it's not yours, why did I bring you here?"
"Maybe I brought you to the wrong place?" Shi Yi was still asking for confirmation.
"If you don't want to, go back to the servants' room." Wu'er looked at the roof impatiently, and unexpectedly saw a big rat running, and screamed, "Ah..."
He was not afraid of anything since he was a child, but he was most afraid of rats. Because, when he had memories, he was playing in the bushes and was bitten hard by a rat. But after the rat bit him, it was still very arrogant and circled around him for several more times. He waited motionlessly until others found him. It was already night, and then he screamed when he heard the rat.
"Rat..." Shi Yi also saw it by accident, and threw out the bag in his hand, and smashed it down when it was about to run to the blind spot above the beam.
"Ahhhhhh..." The mouse fell to the ground, and was looking for a way to escape in a panic. Wu'er was afraid that it would run over and bite him, so he flew onto the table in an instant.
"Okay, come down." Shi Yi calmly picked up his bag.
"The mouse ran away?" Wu'er landed on his feet, looked around carefully, and swore in his heart that he would never come here again next time.
"What do you think?" Shi Yi kicked the big rat that he had stepped on to death in front of him.
Wu'er never thought that she, a weak woman, would dare to deal with a big rat. Seeing the red-headed and horrible dead rat, he immediately stepped away from her.
"There is progress, no more screams." Shi Yi untied the bag, shook the things inside onto the table, and then picked up the dead rat with the bag skin and threw it out of the window. His behavior and expression were really calm.
In the evening, when Zong Ying came back, Wu Er told him the story in vivid detail, and even gave him a description of the incident - cruel.
Zong Ying laughed unexpectedly, "This little girl seems to be able to do something big."
"Master, that was a big rat, bigger than my two fists." Wu Er hurriedly added details.
"That means this little girl is even more powerful. She was able to step on the rat that you dared not deal with. This kind of character is rare." Zong Ying took off his outer robe and threw it on the screen, waving to him, "Go, call this little girl over. I have been patrolling the shop all day today, and my feet are very sore. Let her come and serve me."
"Master, are you asking her to wash your feet?" Wu Er was a little surprised. He thought that the master wanted her to serve him by his side.
"It's just a little girl. I'm not that impatient." Zong Ying wanted to roll his eyes at his servant, but he held back.
"That's right. Today, the second and third wives have sent things to our east courtyard. The second wife is charming and the third wife is pretty and gentle. Both of them are a hundred times, a thousand times better than the little girl." Wu'er murmured and nodded as if he understood something.
"Go quickly!" Zong Ying felt that his follower was getting stupider and stupider.
However, his second and third wives were not as simple as they seemed. However, he couldn't deal with them for the time being, so he just let them make trouble for
the time being. Shi Yi put on the clothes that the eldest wife specially sent Li Po to deliver, and came to Zong Ying's room to serve.
Perhaps because the clothes were made in a hurry, the size was always not suitable, and Shi Yi always felt very uncomfortable.
"Come, come to the bed." Zong Ying, who was only wearing a cotton shirt, sat on the bed, watching the little girl pretending to be timid walking towards him step by step. At his feet, the foot washing water that the servants had prepared long ago was steaming hot.
"Master." Shi Yi almost buried her face in her chest.
"Have you ever washed someone's feet before?" Zong Ying raised his hand to motion her to come closer, so that he could just see the subtle expression on her face.
"No." Shi Yi shook her head, her voice as low as the buzz of a mosquito.
"You can step on big rats to death during the day, but you dare not raise your head when you see me at night?" Zong Ying joked, and saw that her ears quickly turned red, and there was a smile on her face.
"Master, rats are not scary." Shi Yi's voice was a little louder, but still timid, which made people feel itchy.
"So I'm scary?" Zong Ying raised his hand to motion her to come closer to him. He stretched out his hand to lift her chin, and forced her to look at him in an irresistible manner, "Look at how scary I am?"
