11 Evil Pet
◎It’s all because of beauty◎
He was carried to the house of the seventh leader of Banyanshan. He frowned and hid the emotion in his eyes.
Just as a bandit was about to reach out and knock on the door, he saw it creak open from the inside. A servant came out hurriedly with medicine in his hand. There was still half a bowl of black medicine residue left in the bowl.
The servant was a boy of about sixteen or seventeen years old. His eyes were red and tears were welling up in his eyes. When he saw the person coming, he just nodded and then ran away quickly, as if there was some jackal or beast behind him.
The bitter smell of medicine filled the air, but as soon as he entered the Seventh Boss's room, it seemed that in addition to the smell of medicine there was another indescribable smell. Ji Shijing frowned and subconsciously held his breath.
The two bandits nearby were already used to this. They escorted Ji Shijing to the room and said flatteringly to the man lying on the bed, "Seventh Master, this is the new beauty we found for you."
The room was dark, and one could only see a figure moving on the bed. After hearing what the bandit said, he slowly sat up: "Hey, you two go out first." His voice was weak, but with a hint of excitement.
The two bandits looked at each other, smiled and retreated, closing the door tightly. They stood guard at the door to ensure the safety of the Seventh Boss.
Ji Shijing was hiding in the darkness, and his expression could not be seen clearly.
The Seventh Boss squinted his eyes and looked at him. Ji Shijing was tall and straight, and looked thin and slender, which was very much to his liking. It happened that his previous male favorite had just died of illness, and the village was full of men, so it was difficult to find a banished immortal. However, the young man who had just come to deliver medicine was not bad, with a fair and clean appearance. It was a pity that he was crying, which ruined his mood.
He lifted the quilt, patted the bed, and called Ji Shijing to sit over.
"My dear husband, come here." The voice was full of impatience.
Ji Shijing took two steps back. What a dirty bed, what a dirty person. He felt extremely disgusted.
Seeing that he had been standing there, the Seventh Boss became angry and said, "Don't be shameless. It's your blessing that I like you. Come and serve me obediently." After saying that, he grabbed the teacup beside him and smashed it hard on him.
Ji Shijing lowered his head and stared at the tea stains on his body. For a moment, he felt as if his body was being bitten by thousands of ants. It was dirty, so dirty. His hands hung at his sides, clenched into fists, and trembled slightly.
Seeing that he was still not moving, the Seventh Master put on a coat and got off the bed, his steps unsteady.
Ji Shijing looked at the person walking towards him, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
The Seventh Boss lit the oil lamp in his hand and looked at him carefully with the lamp. When he saw his appearance clearly, his heart trembled violently, and he was overjoyed. He really couldn't imagine that there was such a beautiful girl in the world, who was much more beautiful than those top beauties in Lianxiang Tower.
It was the first time he met a fairy-like person, and he liked her very much and became more and more satisfied.
He laughed "hehe", and saliva flowed down the corners of his mouth unconsciously, emitting a fishy and unpleasant smell.
Ji Shijing closed his eyes, his nostrils filled with a rotten smell. When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were stern, and a dangerous arc appeared at the corner of his mouth. He already had an idea in his mind.
When the Seventh Boss saw him laugh, he quickly put down the oil lamp, rubbed his hands, opened his arms and rushed towards Ji Shijing, unable to contain his excitement.
The two bandits outside the door put their ears to the door panel to listen to the movement inside the house, but after listening for a long time, the house was still silent.
One of the bandits couldn't help but wonder, "What's wrong with the Seventh Master today? Is this person not to the Seventh Master's liking?"
The other bandit was also confused and could only echo the response: "Maybe, but I think this young man today is quite handsome, much more handsome than the ones before..."
Before he could finish his words, he heard a loud "bang" from the house. The two bandits' hearts jumped into their throats, but they didn't dare to open the door and ruin the Seventh Master's good deeds. So they asked, "Seventh Master, what happened?"
"No...it's okay, don't come in, just guard outside." The voice was slightly panting.
It was indeed the voice of the Seventh Boss. The two bandits smiled at each other. They wondered how long the Seventh Boss would continue to make trouble this time. When the last male favorite was still around, the Seventh Boss had not left the room for four days and four nights. They wondered if it would take even longer this time.
"The young master doesn't look very healthy this time. I wonder how long he can last."
"I won't worry about this. If you die, I can just find another one."
…
Shu Yao had been locked up for the entire morning and felt a little anxious. This wasn't going to work, so it seemed she had to find a way out of the boss' situation.
Just as she was thinking about it, the boss walked in through the snow, his body covered in white. She was very considerate and went over to help him brush off the snow, and at the same time did not forget to say: "Thank you for your hard work, boss."
The boss lifted her chin and exhaled a breath of cold air: "You are quite smart."
Shu Yao lowered her eyes slightly, as if a little embarrassed: "This is what I should do."
The boss laughed twice and said nothing more.
At this time, the servant brought in a pot of burning charcoal and placed it next to it. He took out some snacks from the food box and placed them on the table. Finally, he took out a pot of warm wine from the boiling water and poured it for the boss.
Shu Yao looked at the dishes on the table with shining eyes. She didn't know how long it had been since she had eaten hot dishes. Although the dishes on the table didn't look good, she was still very greedy.
The boss's gaze lingered on her for a moment, and after downing a glass of hot wine, he called out to her, "Why are you standing there like an idiot? Come and pour me some wine."
She reacted and hurried over to help him pour wine and serve food. When she picked up a piece of beef, she couldn't help swallowing a few times. The beef looked really good, although it was burnt.
When she picked up the beef, she deliberately let it pass under her nose, taking the opportunity to smell the fragrance of the meat a few more times.
Seeing her staring at the piece of meat in her hand, the eldest master couldn't help but ask her, "I heard that you are the newly married young lady of the Ji Mansion."
A young woman from a wealthy family wouldn't have her eyes light up when she sees a piece of beef.
Shu Yao reluctantly put the piece of beef into his bowl and said, "Yes, but my husband died of illness just after I entered the mansion, and the master was so sad that he died too."
The eldest boss raised an eyebrow and put the piece of beef in the bowl into his mouth and chewed it vigorously: "So, you haven't consummated your marriage with your sick husband yet?"
Her heart skipped a beat, and she naturally knew what the boss meant. After thinking about it, she nodded truthfully.
The boss picked up another large piece of beef and said, "How pitiful."
Shu Yao saw that most of the beef in the bowl had been eaten. She sniffed, her eyes red: "Yes." She looked so pitiful. There was such a big plate of beef in front of her, but she couldn't even eat a single piece.
The boss handed the empty wine glass to her and said, "Pour the wine."
She did as she was told.
After the boss had eaten and drunk his fill, Shu Yao saw that there were still a few slices of beef left in the bowl. She said cautiously, "Boss, um, I haven't eaten yet." While speaking, her eyes never left the pieces of meat.
The boss glanced at her, pointed at the leftovers on the table and said, "Eat these up."
The dishes on the table were in a mess. Shu Yao covered her rumbling stomach and didn't care about anything else.
Filling her stomach was the most important thing, so she picked up a new pair of chopsticks, picked up the beef she had been longing for and put it into her mouth.
Even though she was very hungry, she still ate slowly.
The boss tilted his head to look at her and complained, "You eat so slowly."
"Ahem..." Shu Yao smiled ingratiatingly twice and couldn't help but speed up.
After so many days, she finally had a hot meal and touched her bulging belly with satisfaction.
The servant came in and took the dishes away.
The boss took off his coat and went to bed to rest, and soon he was snoring loudly.
Shu Yao lay on a low couch in the corner, staring at the beam above, lost in thought. According to the general plot of novels, when the bad guy fell asleep, the protagonist would basically chop the bad guy's neck with a dagger.
But the bad guys always wake up at critical moments.
She looked at the sleeping figure on the bed, and a struggle ran through her mind.
Finally, she shook her head. If the assassination failed, she would be finished.
Moreover, she didn't dare to kill anyone.
The heavy snow outside stopped in the afternoon. After an unknown amount of time, a rustling sound came from the bed, followed by the friction of the quilt. Shu Yao shuddered, quickly put on her shoes, and stood respectfully by the bed.
Sure enough, after a while, the boss slowly woke up.
When he saw the person standing at the head of the bed, he subconsciously pulled out a machete from under the pillow.
Shu Yao was caught off guard and fell backwards. The machete was facing her neck, only an inch away from cutting her skin. She looked at the knife in front of her in horror, gasping for breath.
When the boss saw it was her, he put away his knife.
Shu Yao was genuinely frightened. Who would hide a knife under their pillow? At the same time, she felt incredibly fortunate that she hadn't done anything bad while he was asleep.
The eldest boss looked at her and said: "When serving others, you should act like a servant."
Shu Yao immediately understood and squatted down to put on his shoes. She held her breath and put the shoes on the boss's feet with difficulty.
This shoe has a bit of a smell.
She picked up her coat. Ancient coats had complicated decorations. She fumbled with it for a long time and finally put it on backwards.
The boss was speechless for a moment, and finally he put on his clothes himself. Shu Yao stood aside awkwardly.
Just as the boss was about to leave, she hurried forward and pleaded, "Boss, can you take me out for a walk?"
"no."
Shu Yao's eyes quickly turned red, tears about to fall, looking pitiful: "I will follow you, and I promise not to run around."
Seeing her like this, how could the rough-and-tumble man of the boss resist her? He thought for a while and said, "Okay, follow me."
Shu Yao immediately smiled.
In order not to arouse his suspicion, she followed him closely, not daring to look around, only occasionally glancing around.
The boss went straight to the back mountain to check the progress of the construction. Shu Yao followed him and asked, "Boss, where are we?"
The boss warned her with his eyes: "Look less and ask less."
She pursed her lips and nodded.
The back mountain is desolate and far less lively than the front mountain. There are no houses here except the village under construction.
She looked around carefully and was shocked to see that the people moving the wooden stakes were actually servants of the Ji Mansion. Then she thought that Ji Shijing should be among them as well. She looked around among the group of people, searching anxiously.
But the servants had been in and out several times, but there was still no sign of him. Her heart was in turmoil. Where was he? Did something unexpected happen to him?
Noticing her wandering gaze, the boss grabbed her wrist and used brute force: "What are you looking at?"
Shu Yao cried out "Ah!" and saw two black crows perched on the tallest sycamore tree not far away. She quickly thought of something and said, "Boss, look at those crows."
The eldest boss followed her gaze and indeed saw two black-feathered crows. He asked, "What's wrong?"
Shu Yao moved her wrist, which he was holding. "I just find it strange. Aren't crows afraid of the cold? They come out in the middle of winter."
The boss let her go.
She knew she had gotten away with it, and she rubbed her aching wrist and let out a soft cry.
But she was still anxious because she couldn't find Ji Shijing.
At this moment, the bandit who had been holding the whip in the morning came running over and said to the big boss, "Big boss, I've sent that kid over to the seventh boss."
The boss said "hmm" to indicate that he understood.
Shu Yao's heart skipped a beat. Could that boy be Ji Shijing? What was the point of sending him to the Seventh Master?
While waiting for the boss to go to the bathroom, she asked the bandit.
The bandit couldn't control his mouth: "That boy is quite good-looking, and our Seventh Master prefers men, so we sent him over."
Shu Yao felt as if struck by lightning.
Ji Shijing was actually forced to be a male concubine.
On the way back, she was absent-minded and almost stepped on the boss's heels several times.
After returning to the house, before Shu Yao could speak, the tall shadow of the boss fell over her: "What's your name?"
"Shu...Shu Yao." Perhaps his aura was too strong, and she was a little scared.
The boss' tone brooked no refusal: "A few days will be auspicious, so prepare to become the wife of the chieftain."
He is thirty-eight years old this year, and it is time for him to get married and have children. Besides, the woman in front of him is good-looking and has a clean background, so he likes her very much.
Shu Yao was completely confused now.
