Seeing Zhou Yiming bending down to pick up firewood, Zhou Ruhai couldn't help but feel angry. He had been hoping that Zhou Yiming and Lin Ajiao would come back so that they could have a lively meal at home, but this guy didn't care about his dignity. , doing a servant's job in front of so many people. This kind of self-deprecating behavior may not only be laughed at by the servants in the family, but also once it spreads in the future and is known to outsiders, for Yi Ming's The image will be greatly damaged.
It was precisely because of the thought of these terrible consequences that Zhou Ruhai blushed anxiously, stamped his feet, and shouted at Zhou Ming: "Ming'er, don't let your temper run wild!
You are the eldest young master of the Zhou family, and now you are working as an errand in the court's Yamen. Even if you don't care about the face of our Zhou family, you can't disgrace the Yamen.
If you leave the servants alone and cook in the kitchen, your colleagues in the yamen will find out and you will become a laughing stock!
At that time, people will think you are worthless! "
Seeing that Zhou Ruhai was really angry, Mrs. Zhou immediately came over to persuade her, fearing that Zhou Ruhai would be ruined by his anger: "Master, don't be so angry. What kind of temper does our own son have? Don't you know yet?"
Lin Ajiao also realized the seriousness of the problem and hurried over to help her mother-in-law persuade her father-in-law: "My mother is right, Dad, don't you understand my husband-in-law's stubborn temper? He just wants me to have a taste of it." Let’s leave his skills to him.”
The servants in the yard, because of Zhou Ming, have not had a serious meal since last night. Some of these servants are smart. They were lazy and ate something when they were looking for Zhou Ming outside, so now Although their stomachs were growling with hunger, it was not to the point where their chests were touching their backs.
The worst thing was the honest servants. After receiving the order from their master, they went outside to look for Zhou Ming non-stop. There was no pause in the process. Some of them were even so anxious that they didn't even have a sip of water during the search. drink.
These hungry servants thought they would have a big meal soon, but because of Zhou Ming's trouble, the time for the big meal became elusive again.
In fact, because Yi Ming is extremely handsome and has a very smart mind, these servants have liked him very much since they were young. Later, when Yi Ming solved the case of the missing woman and gradually became more promising, the servants admired this young master even more. At the same time, I hope that he can make a breakthrough in his official career as soon as possible and regain all the lost foundation of the Zhou family.
However, the good impression the servants had on Zhou Ming disappeared at that moment. Even looking at Zhou Ming who insisted on his own way, they all felt resentful. They felt that this young master was good at everything, but he was sometimes unkind. He clearly knew that for the sake of Looking for him, the servants like them haven't eaten for a long time. As a result, he doesn't care about the feelings of these people at all. He still thinks about it and has to cook some damn porridge.
Although there is infinite resentment and anger in their hearts, these servants dare not speak out. After all, Zhou Yiming is no longer the sick man he used to be. His wings have grown stronger and he is more respectable than the master outside, so that Zhou No one can control him now.
Zhou Yiming didn't care at all about the high-sounding words his father said and didn't take them to heart at all. After all, if Zhou Ruhai pressured him with other things, there might be hope of success, but he shouldn't, absolutely shouldn't, no. It’s time to talk about the colleagues in the Yamen. After all, Yi Ming is now the No. 1 leader in the Inspection Yamen in the south of the city.
Let's not talk about the government servants with lower positions than himself in the inspection yamen in the south of the city. Even Xia Dezhang, who is at the same level as Zhou Ming, can only bow and grovel when he meets Zhou Ming.
And after last night's arrest operation, with his own strength and outstanding performance, Yi Ming had completely surrendered Deng Tong. He even confidently believed that with the contribution he made last night, this Northern spy case was solved. After that, there is a very high probability that he will replace Deng Tong's position as the inspection envoy and become the top leader of the inspection yamen in the south of the city.
At that time, let alone those colleagues in the inspection yamen in the south of the city who didn't know that they personally cooked the porridge. Even if they knew, they wouldn't dare to fart in their mouths. Even if they just said a word, they would have to behave. Standing next to them and letting them light the fire to wash rice, they all have to feel that they are lifting them up.
Zhou Yiming picked some dry firewood, held it in his arms, and responded to Zhou Ruhai with a smile: "Dad, if you teach me a lesson about other things, maybe I have to weigh it before cooking this pot of porridge, but If you are just afraid of those colleagues in the yamen making fun of me, then you can rest assured that your son is no longer what he used to be. Not to mention those colleagues at the same level, even the top leaders in our yamen are now under my control. Deadly.
If I don't cause trouble for them, they will already be burning incense. Even if you give them a hundred courages, they won't dare to laugh at me! "
The servants in the yard initially thought that Yi Ming was making a fuss, but when they thought about it more carefully, they realized that Yi Ming might be telling the truth. After all, when solving the case of the missing woman, Yi Ming showed great strength. Shockingly, if he hadn't risked his life to kill Feng Shiying and Yan Shikuan, probably all the people in the inspection yamen in the south of the city would have died.
For those people in the inspection yamen in the south of the city, Zhou Yiming is their reborn parent, and he is a reborn parent who is far more powerful than them. Whether it is out of gratitude or fear, even if this reborn parent does something stupid, the yamen None of those people here could tell him what to do.
Zhou Ruhai was speechless by what Zhou Ming said, and with Mrs. Zhou and Lin Ajiao on both sides trying to persuade him, he could only let out a long sigh and planned to turn around and enter the study, ignoring Zhou Ming.
The old man in the corner of the yard saw Zhou Ruhai helpless towards Zhou Ming, and couldn't help but feel infinitely disappointed. When he grabbed porridge just now, he only got half a bowl and was not full at all. In addition, he was older. The body is weak and there is no hunger at all.
The old man looked sad at the thought of having to wait for Yi Ming to finish the porridge before he could have a big meal. He raised a hand and wiped the sweat from his face tremblingly, thinking that with his physical condition, he didn't know if he could Stay alive until dinner is served.
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Zhou Ruhai walking into the study. Yi Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that he could finally cook the porridge in peace.
Just as Zhou Yiming had selected a bundle of dry firewood and was about to walk away from the gate, the gate of Zhou Mansion was suddenly knocked open from the outside. A figure ran in in a panic. Because he was too fast and had no time to dodge, he was knocked down one after another. The three people finally stopped the car in the middle of the yard with great efforts.
This sudden scene frightened everyone.
The servants in the yard didn't have time to see the face of the intruder clearly, so they ran away, fearing that the person who suddenly broke in was a cold-blooded killer and would kill them.
After Zhou Ruhai heard the noise, he turned around and was so frightened that he immediately protected Mrs. Zhou behind him, then closed his eyes, not daring to look at the intruder.
At the same time, he kept thinking in his mind whether this sudden intruder might be related to the big event he heard about last night.
Lin Ajiao had been standing next to Zhou Ruhai since just now. After smelling the danger, she immediately opened her stance and stood in front of her parents-in-law, regardless of her own safety, let alone her injured body.
Zhou Yiming's reaction was the fastest. When he saw the intruder, he immediately wanted to throw away the firewood in his hand and rush over to fight this person to the death.
But this thought only existed for a moment. When he saw the back of the intruder, he immediately knew the identity of this person and couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face.
Just when everyone was in a panic, the intruder suddenly knelt on the ground and shouted excitedly: "Master, madam, the young master has news!"
While everyone in the yard was frightened, they all felt very familiar after hearing the sound. A few brave people were the first to look at the intruder, and their fear immediately disappeared.
Because this intruder is none other than the old housekeeper of the Zhou family - Laifu.
Lin Ajiao breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the voice coming from Laifu. She put away her posture and stood aside again, with a wry smile on her face.
Zhou Ruhai found out that the intruder was Laifu, and couldn't help but feel very angry. He thought that this old guy had been out for such a long time without bringing back any news. He must have gone somewhere to be lazy.
It was getting late now and it was difficult to explain when I came back, so I deliberately made up a fake news to deceive me.
Well, I want to see what news you can tell!
Zhou Yiming originally wanted to go into the kitchen with firewood and didn't want to talk to Laifu, because this old boy always cheated him. But when he heard that he had news about him, Zhou Yiming immediately lost his composure, thinking that this old boy was cowardly. My son is getting fatter and fatter, and now he dares to make up lies.
This young master is obviously standing here. Where did this old boy go to find out the news? The delay is so high.
After hearing what Laifu said, the frightened servants in the yard were all stunned. Everyone was puzzled. What song was Laifu singing? The young master had come back a long time ago. The news he brought back , it’s a little too late.
Originally, if these servants could have reminded Laifu a little, it might not have caused a tragedy, but Laifu is usually not very popular with others. He always deceives his superiors and takes advantage of those servants, so those servants People hated him so much that they finally had an opportunity to deal with him, how could they miss it.
Instead of reminding him, these people remained tight-lipped and kept silent with a tacit agreement. They hoped that the news Laifu would tell him would be as outrageous as possible, because then there would be a good show.
