The news that Duan Qingxi had an ugly maidservant by his side soon spread throughout the general's mansion.
Even some of the braver servants came over to watch and laugh.
Chan Xue didn't mind. She would rather be laughed at by these servants than be surrounded by men in the brothel who came to watch her because of her beauty.
Duan Sijin also knew about this, but didn't take it to heart.
In the past, Duan Qingxi came to have dinner with him and Duan Hong almost every day, but for some reason, she was nowhere to be seen these days.
After thinking about it, he took the initiative to come to her.
As soon as I entered the yard, I saw many servants standing by, pointing and talking, and some even covered their mouths and laughed.
Following the servants' gaze, I saw an extremely ugly maid sweeping the floor with a broom.
Wherever she passed, it was swept clean, almost spotless.
After sweeping the floor, I watered the flowers, pruned the lush potted plants, and finally fed the fish in the small pond.
In such a good mood, I couldn't help but reach out and tease the fish.
The fish was not afraid of strangers and even touched her fingers with its mouth, making her giggle.
Duan Sijin didn't know why he was standing outside the yard and staring at a maid doing these things, but he inexplicably felt that this maid gave him a very familiar feeling, as if he had seen her somewhere.
Just then, several maids passed by carrying a lot of dirty clothes.
After seeing Chanxue, he stopped.
Several people looked at each other, as if they were discussing some bad idea.
Then, a maid came forward and threw all the dirty clothes in her hands next to Chanxue.
When Chanxue noticed something was wrong, she stopped feeding the fish and looked at them in confusion.
"Sister...what's the matter?"
The maid folded her arms, looked down at her, and said arrogantly, "You have until tonight to wash these dirty clothes! Otherwise, we will report you to the young lady and accuse you of being lazy!"
Chan Xue frowned slightly, then stood up and said to her, "Washing clothes is not my job. Besides, even if I were to wash them, it should be the young lady's clothes. Why would I wash yours and the other servants' clothes?"
The maidservant immediately became angry and said, "Why do you mind so much? You wash when I tell you to. You're just an ugly bastard. If the young lady hadn't taken you in, you wouldn't know where you would be now! If you want to stay here, then be good and listen to me! Go and wash the clothes!"
Chan Xue didn't move. Although she volunteered to be Duan Qingxi's maid, it didn't mean that anyone could bully her.
After looking down at the dirty clothes, he said calmly, "If it were the young lady's clothes, I'd be willing to do it even if it wasn't my job. But asking me to wash your clothes is absolutely impossible! If you have the guts, go and report it to the young lady!"
Of course, those maids couldn't really report it to Duan Qingxi, they just wanted to scare her into doing things for them.
When Duan Qingxi was still a poor young lady, they often gave her dirty clothes to wash. She had become accustomed to having someone do the dirty and tiring work for her.
Now that Duan Qingxi has regained her identity as the eldest daughter, they can only do these things again.
But he felt uncomfortable in his heart. After seeing Chanxue, he felt that she could be bullied, so he dared to be so presumptuous.
Seeing that she was not afraid at all, they became angry.
One of them stepped forward and raised his hand to hit Chanxue, but Chanxue stepped back slightly and his hand missed.
Seeing this, the other maid was so angry that she simply reached out and pushed Chanxue back.
Behind it is a pond. Although it is not big, the water is quite deep. It is very dangerous if you fall into it!
Chanxue couldn't swim and screamed.
