Mrs. Zhou didn't have time to think too much, and immediately waved to the servants in the yard, greeted them loudly and said, "What are you people doing standing still? Stop the young mistress quickly. Don't let her walk out of the door, otherwise I will never finish with you!"
The servants in the yard saw that such a big change had happened to the master's family, and they did not dare to say anything. After all, they were all small people. Rather than getting involved, it was better to eat quietly and be safe.
So when they saw Lin Ajiao leaving with the little maid, the servants all stood still, as if their acupoints had been tapped.
It wasn't until Mrs. Zhou gave them a death order that these people were unwilling to step forward to stop Lin Ajiao.
"Young mistress, please calm down first. There may be some misunderstanding here. Our young master is not that kind of person. Give him a chance."
"Yes, we have grown up watching the young master. He has been educated and sensible since he was a child, and would not do such despicable things."
These servants tried their best to persuade Lin Ajiao, but also tried their best to prevent her from walking to the gate. The men blocked the way, and the women surrounded Lin Ajiao and dragged her to death, refusing to let her go.
These servants are not fools. They understand very well that the master and his wife must be very angry now that the young master has done such a shameful thing. If they let the young mistress go at this time, the master will have nowhere to vent his anger. They will be cruel to them, and if they don't pay attention, this month's wages will be gone.
As the culprit of the whole thing, after Laifu completely messed up the matter, in order to perform the role of the loyal old servant deeply into the hearts of the people, he quickly stood up and joined the crowd who stopped Lin Ajiao from leaving. He even rushed to the scene in person. On the front line, he directed his men to chase and intercept Lin Ajiao.
"Young lady, please listen to me. My young master is not bad at heart. He may have been instigated by others after working as a yamen official. Otherwise, he would never have gone to such a place." Laifu pretended to be righteous. Look, he persuaded patiently.
No matter how everyone tried to stop her or persuade her, Lin Ajiao seemed to be determined and didn't care at all. She didn't say a word and just kept moving forward.
Originally, with Lin Ajiao's own martial arts cultivation, she could easily knock all the ordinary people in front of her to the ground, but she was kind-hearted and could not bear to do so, and the one who failed her was Zhou Ming. These people were all They were innocent, and they blocked him out of good intentions.
Seeing that these servants could not stop Lin Ajiao at all, Mrs. Zhou panicked completely. She had no time to ask Zhou Ruhai next to her to help her, and staggered to Lin Ajiao alone, grabbed her hand, but would not Let her go.
It was only then that Lin Ajiao stopped and stood there and cried aggrievedly.
She understood that Mrs. Zhou was frail and sick, and she must be anxious and angry at this moment. If she forced her way out regardless of her face, the old man might not be able to accept it for a while and would become ill.
At this time, Zhou Ruhai stood at the door of the study room, trembling all over. He turned a blind eye to the situation where Lin Ajiao and the servants were pulling each other in front of him. His eyes were fixed on Zhou Ming, wishing he could rush over immediately and do it in front of everyone. Beat this disgraceful son to death.
"Evil! Why don't you kneel down!" Zhou Ruhai yelled.
The noisy people in the yard were startled by the roar, and they were all silent for a moment. Everyone's eyes first looked at Zhou Ruhai, and then moved to Zhou Ming.
Zhou Yiming originally wanted to prevent all this from happening, but his movements and reactions were a bit slow. Before he took action, the matter had already reached a point of turmoil. Seeing that the yard turned into a pot of porridge, he felt so angry.
Laifu, this damn guy, what grudge do I have against him? What complaint? Why does he always hurt me at critical moments? I went to Huamanlou to arrest people, and what I did was a serious matter, not as dirty as he said.
As a result, this old boy didn't care about my dignity as a young master at all. He heard a few rumors from somewhere and came back to receive his merit happily. He didn't put himself in my shoes at all. He wanted to kill me.
Not to mention that I had a serious purpose in going to Huamanlou. Even if I went there to spend money and act recklessly, as the housekeeper of the Zhou family, he should have concealed it for me if he knew about it.
After all, if you shout about this kind of thing, firstly, it will make the master and his wife angry, and secondly, it will cause discord between Lin Ajiao and I. Once these words get out, he, as the housekeeper of the Zhou family, will be disgraced. ah!
Zhou Yiming really couldn't understand what this old guy Laifu was thinking. If he sold himself just to get some reward money from the master, this old thing would never be used again in the future. After all, such a meeting If a money-minded and profit-seeking person continues to be the housekeeper of the Zhou family, he may betray the entire Zhou family for the sake of glory and wealth.
Originally, Zhou Yiming wanted to rush over during the first quarter and beat Laifu violently to satisfy his hatred, but when he saw that his father was really angry, he could only give up this idea and slowly walked towards the middle of the yard. .
Laifu was very devoted when trying to persuade the young mistress, but when he was suddenly startled by Zhou Ruhai, he was a little confused for the first time. He didn't know who Zhou Ruhai was talking about.
Finally seeing the other servants, he slowly shifted his gaze and looked towards the door. He also followed everyone's gaze and looked over. It didn't matter. After seeing the person next to the door, he was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder almost burst. He fell to the ground.
Seeing Zhou Yiming walking towards him menacingly, Laifu was frightened and thought to himself, why was he so unlucky? Before you said those words, why didn't you check carefully? It would be better if you hit someone's knife edge directly. If the young master gets angry and really wants to take his own life, his own master can't stop him.
Although it was a critical moment of life and death, the Laifu thief was very savvy. He knew that even if he begged for mercy at this moment, he would not be able to win Zhou Ming's forgiveness. After all, the deal was already done and the matter had reached a point where it was beyond control.
The only way he can save his life now is to go all the way to the dark side. No matter what danger he encounters, he must insist that what he just said is true. As long as Yi Ming cannot prove his innocence by then, he will Maybe he escaped under the protection of his master, and maybe he will get more rewards due to his brave and fearless performance.
After making up his mind, Laifu was no longer afraid. He steeled himself and stood on the path that Zhou Ming must pass, pretending to be humble and not daring to look directly into Zhou Ming's eyes.
Zhou Yiming slowly walked up to Laifu, his eyes burning with anger. He frowned and said in a low voice: "Laifu, you are really worthy of me!"
The other servants were afraid that Yi Ming would suddenly take action and kill Laifu, so they all hid far away, for fear that the city gate would be on fire and Chi Yu would be affected.
"Master, don't blame me!" Laifu pretended to be pitiful and wiped his tears while saying aggrievedly, "I can't help it. You said you knew the news. If I didn't tell the master, , is disloyal.
It doesn't actually matter if young people make a small mistake. What they fear most is that they will continue on the wrong path to the end, and then there will be no cure.
I told the master this news because I hope he can take good control of you so that you can return to your lost ways and start a new life.
As long as you can change your ways, Master, your future is still bright. Laifu does this for your own good! "
Zhou Yiming's eyes widened. He had never seen such a shameless person in his entire life. He raised his hand and wanted to slap this damn guy to death.
When Laifu saw this, he was so frightened that he ran away behind Mrs. Zhou and Lin Ajiao.
Lin Ajiao thought that Zhou Yiming had been hit in a sore spot by Laifu, so she became furious and wanted to kill someone to silence him.
On the one hand, in order to prevent Zhou Yiming from doing something stupid, and on the other hand, she also wanted to protect Laifu's life, so Lin Ajiao immediately took a stance and blocked Laifu's life.
Seeing Lin Ajiao like this, Zhou Yiming was heartbroken. He thought to himself, madam, even if all of them don't believe me, don't you believe me too?
"Stop!" Zhou Ruhai's face turned green with anger when he saw Yi Ming trying to hit someone in front of so many people. He shouted, "Beast! You have done something embarrassing, are you still afraid of others telling you?
After Laifu learned the news, he did not protect you at all. This is for your own good. You are really a dog biting Lu Dongbin, and you have no humanity at all! "
Zhou Yiming saw that his father was so angry that he couldn't even speak politely, so he didn't dare to go his own way and continue to cause trouble for Laifu. He could only walk to the middle of the yard, kneel on the ground, and explain to Zhou Ruhai respectfully: " Dad, if others don’t believe in your son’s character, don’t you even believe in me?
I grew up reading books about sages, how could I not understand the words etiquette and integrity?
Don't think that what Fu said is clear and logical. In fact, there are all misunderstandings here. "
Originally, the servants in the family had decided that Zhou Yi Ming was a shameless prodigal, and they all planned to find a safe place to see how Zhou Ruhai would deal with this rebellious son later.
As a result, when they heard Zhou Ming say that the whole thing was a misunderstanding, they began to hesitate in their evaluation of Zhou Ming. Many people even hoped that Zhou Ming could clear their grievances. After all, he is now the world's leader. A popular man, as long as he continues to develop on a normal path, he will definitely be able to rise to prominence in the officialdom in the future.
Once he achieves enlightenment alone in the court, then everyone in the Zhou family will definitely follow the chickens and dogs to heaven, and then their servants will also be able to get a lot of glory.
Mrs. Zhou usually loves Zhou Ming the most. In the past, when Zhou Ruhai wanted to teach him a lesson, Mrs. Zhou would always come out to stop him immediately, but this time, she did not do so.
