Zhang You fell into deep thought as he looked at the small brown door in front of him, which was inlaid with a bronze lion knocker and could only accommodate one person.
Can't it?
So small?
"This is the back door. The main door is not for people like us." As if realizing that Zhang You had misunderstood, Manager Qiao replied lightly.
"Oh oh." Zhang You smiled awkwardly.
After Manager Qiao finished speaking, he went forward and knocked on the door twice. After a while, the doorman came to open the door.
"Manager Qiao is back." The servant said attentively.
"Yeah." Manager Qiao replied coldly and led Zhang You to the servants' room.
"This is the small gate on the west side of the mansion. Because it's close to the servants' quarters, people who need to go out for shopping or the like go out through here.
If you need to transport goods, you need to go through the larger door on the west side, closer to the north."
"Okay, I'll make a note of it."
Zhang You agreed in a servile manner.
"Now that you have entered the mansion, you can no longer call yourself "I". You must call yourself "slave". This is the rule.
Once you enter the palace, you must follow its rules. Remember, the master is the most important and must not be disrespectful. The master's affairs are the most important and must be handled promptly.
…
Forget it, you can learn the rest of the rules from Madam Chang."
It's too classic.
This is a master-servant relationship that is inhumane and without human rights.
Can't I talk back?
You have to praise it everywhere and everything goes smoothly.
It’s painful to think about it.
Want to escape...
Want to run...
But I just signed the contract to sell myself.
It’s okay, it’s okay!
If you can't afford to offend me, you can afford to avoid me.
At worst, I can just be a third-class maid and won’t have to deal with the master. This way, I can solve the problem from the root!
It’s decided!
"Okay, I understand."
After Meimei PUA herself, Zhang You can already tell lies with his eyes open.
She calls me her slave all the time, and her attitude is so nice!
Zhang You followed Manager Qiao all the way and became familiar with the route from the west gate to the lower quarters.
I don’t know the identity of the owner of this mansion?
Such a big rockery!
Such a big vegetable garden?
These carved beams and painted buildings!
This winding corridor!
This smooth cobblestone road?
How rich is this owner?
After walking for so long, I only saw the rockery garden and vegetable garden in the west courtyard.
Wait, what's that smell?
Looks like potatoes?
Zhang You couldn't help swallowing.
So hungry.
I should have thought of it earlier. What could be next to the vegetable garden? Of course it's the kitchen!
"Job, can we eat?"
Zhang You was so hungry that she didn’t care about what Manager Qiao had just said about hierarchy. She just wanted to eat!
"Alright, alright, you're starving, skin and bones. I've only heard your stomach growling the whole way here. They should be ready to eat soon, so let's go eat first."
Zhang You didn't care about the embarrassment of being exposed, and just agreed and waited to go to the kitchen quickly.
"Oh, Manager Qiao, you've come at the right time! Chef Ding has just finished cooking, so you can catch it while it's still hot."
"That's a coincidence."
"Come, come, come, Manager Qiao, sit over here. The stool we just used is clean."
"Hey, Manager Qiao, come here. I just got a pot of fine wine from the eldest son as a gift. Would you like to try it?"
"Hurrah."
Manager Qiao was smiling as he was about to be pulled over by a group of people.
Zhang You squeezed through the crowd with difficulty and was just about to ask Manager Qiao how to arrange her.
Manager Qiao seemed to suddenly remember her and pointed her to the maid he had just spoken to.
"Er Ya, that's Nanny Chang. Go with her. She will arrange everything for you later."
"Okay, okay." Zhang You agreed and turned around and ran to find Nanny Chang attentively.
"Hello, Madam Chang. I'm Erya, the new maid. Steward Qiao said I'll be following you from now on."
"Okay, come here. Everyone at this table is just like you, except they came a day or two earlier than you. From now on, you will be like them and follow me. I will teach you the rules of the mansion."
Nanny Chang looked at Zhang You carefully, then took her to a table of girls who were about her age, similar in development to her, and thin and petite.
They all wore the same brown clothes and had their hair tied in a bun.
Oh my god!
At first glance, I thought I saw sextuplets!
wrong!
Including me, that’s septuplets!
Bah. Bah. Bah.
However, the same skinny little body, the same yellowish skin, and the same short height.
Is there something wrong with the master of this house?
Why did you pick on us skinny girls?
Weird habits?
collect?
ah?
"Come, sit here.
You guys are really too thin. You should eat more. If you don't grow stronger, how can you work? "
After Nanny Chang pulled Zhang You over and arranged for her to sit down, she reminded them to eat more and grow taller.
"Look at those two tables. They came only a few months earlier than you, and they've become prettier. If they look good, will they have a chance to become first-class maids when they take the promotion exam soon?"
Zhang You quickly grabbed a steamed bun and started eating it with the three vegetarian dishes on the table.
There are really only three vegetarian dishes.
Stewed potato cubes, stir-fried cabbage, and mixed tofu.
If I wasn't starving, I would flip the table if I was given this for my work lunch at any time!
However, I was so hungry that I didn’t feel choked by the steamed bun and swallowed it directly with the vegetables.
But she still kept an ear to what Nanny Chang said.
She looked in the direction that Nanny Chang had said - indeed, the maids at the two tables in front, although also wearing brown clothes, were not as thin and small as those at this table.
