Beloved at the Door - Chapter 4
Back in time two years ago, the Jiangnan salt administration has been corrupt for a long time. The so-called time has created heroes. Opportunities are always hidden in crises. The salt administration is corrupt and collusion between government and business. After a long time, the Daxing dynasty’s secret arrests from all over the country were dispatched, and she was already gearing up for it.
She, Shangguan Yan, focused on the Qin family, the largest salt merchant north of the Yangtze River.
Master Qin and Master Yan Zheng have a very close relationship. She believes that there must be secret transactions between the two. Master Qin is a very cautious and cunning person. He will definitely leave a roster or account book for dealing with Master Yan Zheng. Things, in case something happens in the future, can be used as a bargaining chip, as long as she can find some bribery list, she can catch Master Yanzheng’s pigtails.
As a slave and maid, she was sold to the Qin family as an undercover agent. Because she had pockmarks on her face, everyone called her Ma’er and was arranged to work in the wood house.
The pockmark on her face was not a disguise technique, but swallowed a kind of medicine, which can make her face grow pockmark, which is more convenient than disguise.
It’s hard to do rough work because of her martial arts inner strength. No one will notice her with her looks and humble status. This gives her a convenient opportunity to inquire at Qin’s house.
The daily lunch break is the time when the servants are the most idle, and she can use it to walk around Qin’s house at this time, avoid the nursing home, and search for what she wants.
She spent two months undercover in Qin’s house, searching all the study rooms, bedrooms, halls, and guest rooms of various sizes and yards. On this day, she quietly came to the Buddhist hall, only this one has not been searched.
She carefully searched every place, except for searching the hidden cells and secret rooms, not even the windowsills and roof beams, and even searched every piece of roof tiles and cornices, but to no avail.
While she was searching the Buddha statue, she suddenly heard a voice coming from outside the door.
“Brother Di, please.”
The other party came too suddenly, she couldn’t avoid it, but there was no cabinet to hide here, so she got under the table of the Buddha hall in a hurry. Fortunately, there was a tablecloth on the table, the length of which was just enough to cover her body. .
Almost as soon as she got under the altar table, people outside stepped into the house.
“Brother Di will be troublesome this time, please help me speak more to Master Tan.”
“Where, Brother Qin is polite, Di will definitely find a way to appease the Tan adults.”
“If you let Dad know about this, he will definitely kill me. Alas, I blamed me on drinking and accidentally bumped into him. That Lord Tan is a narrow-minded person.”
“In my opinion, Master Tan isn’t a person who doesn’t get in. It’s better to ask him to apologize for a banquet.”
“Of course it’s okay to treat guests. Our Qin family has the most money. I’m afraid he won’t appreciate this face, and deliberately confronts our Qin family.”
“Brother Qin, don’t worry, since I agreed, I will try my best to make it happen.”
“Thank you, Brother Di, I am grateful, I will be grateful after everything is done.”
Shangguan Yan, who was hiding under the altar, listened boredly to these two people. She recognized that one of the voices was the eldest son of the Qin family, Qin Jikang. As for the man surnamed Di, she didn’t know who it was.
When she was bored, suddenly there was the sound of something falling, and then she saw something rolling under the altar table and stopped at her feet. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a man’s finger.
not good! She was thinking so, the next moment the tablecloth was suddenly lifted, and a man squatted in front of her and met her face to face.
Shangguan Yan was stunned, and so was the other person. The two looked at each other, both were shocked.
She finally saw the look of the man named Di, with picturesque brows, deep eyes, three-dimensional features, gentle and elegant, such a handsome and charming man, but it was a pity that the other party was so scared by her that he even forgot to close his mouth.
She made a hissing gesture to the other party, picked up her fingers leisurely and put them on his hand, and then winked at him playfully.
Good boy, don’t do anything bad about your sister, if you dare to speak out, I’ll stun you.
Di Jing never expected that there would be a maid hiding under the altar table in the Buddhist hall, and she was very courageous. After being discovered, she didn’t panic at all, but asked him to keep it secret. His eyes blinked and teased him playfully. .
At a glance, Di Jing could feel that this girl was bold and steady. She was found hiding here sneakily, but she was still in danger.
interesting.
He raised his eyebrows, staring straight at her.
“Brother Di, have you found it?”
Qin Jikang wondered why he had picked up something for so long, thinking that he could not find the falling finger, and was about to come to help. Di Jing immediately put the tablecloth under the cover, stood up and smiled at Duke Qin: “Found it.”
Di Jing put the pull finger back on his finger, and pulled Qin Jikang aside, deliberately away from the offering table.
“About Master Tan, I have an idea, let’s go out and talk slowly.” As he said, he took him away from the temple naturally.
With the sound of their footsteps away, Shangguan Yan lifted a corner of the tablecloth, looked left and right, and then got out from under the altar.
Hey, this guy with the surname Di is quite good, he really helped her, and didn’t reveal her deeds. Well, this person can’t stop him when he is lucky, so he can pass the level.
She thought it was funny. Before leaving the temple, she looked around again, and quietly left when there was no one. There was no suspiciousness in this temple, and nothing was found today.
She walked to the woodshed, but someone stopped her on the way.
“Hey, stop!”
Shangguan Yan turned her head and saw Guizhi, another maid, whose face was suffocating. She must be looking for someone to vent her breath. She turned around and greeted Guizhi with a smile.
“Sister Guizhi.”
“come here!”
It’s strange that Shangguan Yan will pass. Guizhi likes to bully her since she entered the Qin family. She blinked, pretending to be stupid and didn’t step forward.
“Sister Guizhi, mother is looking for me in a hurry. I have to go back immediately and come to you later.”
“Wait! I call you, can’t you dare to come?!” Guizhi angrily wanted to catch Ma’er. She was scolded by the maid-in-charge just now. She was so angry that she was out of nowhere when she saw Ma’er. Decided to use her as a punching bag.
“You are getting bolder and bolder. I call you, do you dare to run?” Seeing her walking faster and faster, Guizhi became more angry.
“Ma’er dare not.”
“If you dare not say anything, you are fattened by the courage!” As she reached out, she was about to pinch her ears.
There used to be a maid named Kikyo who could make her Guizhi bully, but since Kikyo made a mistake and was sold by her master, no one could help her. Fortunately, a Maer came here. This Maer was ugly. She Guizhi is the ugliest in Qin’s mansion, and now someone is at the bottom, which makes her very satisfied.
Shangguan Yan flashed sharply, and Gui Zhi’s hand was empty.
“Eh? You dare to hide, stand for me!”
Guizhi wanted to pinch her ears, but no matter how she grasped them, she couldn’t touch them. The hemp looked stupid, but the movements were slippery. She was so angry that she simply picked up the bamboo stick from one side and was about to go. Ma’er was pumping.
“Ah! Sister Guizhi forgive me!”
Shangguan Yan hugged his head and scurried, hiding and fleeing. He fell to the ground and rolled. It didn’t take long for his whole body to be dirty and very embarrassed. The other servants who passed by saw it and laughed.
Guizhi likes to bully this newcomer Ma’er. It’s no longer a one-day or two-day business. Everyone has long been familiar with it and loves to watch the excitement. Because Guizhi always can’t catch up with Ma’er, and Ma’er always does it Running up and down, rolling around, hiding in a thrilling and exciting way. After a long time, everyone has developed the habit of reading jokes. No one came forward to help, and only guessed whether Guizhi could catch hemp this time. child.
In this Qin family, it is common for old servants to oppress new servants. As long as it does not kill anyone, the master will not take care of it.
When Di Jing passed by, he saw this scene. He didn’t care about it and didn’t intend to take care of his business. After all, he came to the mansion as a guest, and the servants of the Qin family hadn’t had his turn to discipline him, but he should When he saw Ma’er’s maid, he immediately recognized that she was the maid hiding under the altar table in the Buddhist hall.
“Ugly girl! Stop for me, be careful that I strip your skin!”
“Woo-oh-sister Guizhi for your life-”
The two were one after the other, you chased me and I jumped, everyone looked and laughed, no one noticed that Di Jing was coming here.
Di Jing observed for a while, and gradually saw the doorway, this girl seemed to be begging for mercy, and she stumbled, but she deceived the servants, but couldn’t deceive his eyes.
She bowed her head and rolled her head, and she just flashed past the smashed bamboo strips. Although she shouted pitifully, why did he think she was playing with each other on purpose?
Di Jing squinted slightly. This girl is indeed interesting and not simple.
Shangguan Yan suddenly rolled eastward, suddenly rolled westward, deliberately making herself ashamed, seemingly embarrassed, but in fact she was bored, and Guizhi wanted to beat her, then she would be exhausted Guizhi.
She hugged her head, lowered her body, and walked around, and finally walked around to a pair of blue shoes. She stopped without looking up. Looking at these shoes, she knew that the other party was a standing person and definitely not a servant. Sure enough, there was a smile around her. The sound stopped, and even Guizhi’s yelling and cursing stopped.
“Master Di?” Guizhi’s panicked voice came.
Yo? Is it the guy with the surname Di that I met in the Buddhist hall?
Shangguan Yan looked up curiously, and saw that beautiful face, and then looked around. The servants all bowed to him, and the women blushed. I don’t know who this man is in Qin’s family?
“Why hit her?” The short questioning, unsullen voice, obviously gentle, but with its own dignity.
