Laifu was used to yelling at these servants, so when he saw these two people ruining his good deeds for the first time, he was so angry that he even lost his mind and showed his usual arrogant attitude, shouting: "I'm going to go." Where, do you need to worry about it? Good dogs don’t block the road. If you two know each other, get out of my way quickly, or else I will report back to you..."
Laifu originally wanted to say that he should be careful to report back to the master and tell these two people to pack up and get out, but before he could say anything, he realized that he was in a dangerous situation now and it was not the time to act arrogant. What if his arrogant attitude angered him? If he seizes these two servants and makes them determined to go against him, wouldn't it be a delay in a major event?
After thinking of this, Laifu immediately suppressed his anger and said with a smile on his face: "Two brothers, we usually have a good relationship. At this time, please don't make things difficult for me.
You two have also seen that our master and young master will soon be reconciled as before. This is a great thing for our family. As servants of the Zhou family, when you and I do things, we must not always Waiting for orders, that would make us look stupid.
I have already thought about it. After the master and the young master reconcile later, they will definitely celebrate grandly. I plan to go to the restaurant closest to our house and order a good banquet to meet the unexpected needs. "
Those two strong servants were relatively smart among the servants of the Zhou family. They had just seen that Yi Ming had the possibility of clearing his grievances, so they immediately became vigilant. The two of them knew that once If Zhou Yiming can overturn Laifu's slander, then Laifu's conviction will be unforgivable. This old boy is usually very thoughtful and has a keen sense of smell. Once he smells a signal of danger, he will immediately rub oil on his feet and leave this world of right and wrong. land.
After they predicted what Laifu might do, they immediately came to the gate to guard it, in order to prevent this number one villain from slipping away.
As expected, things turned out to be just as they expected. The two of them had just stood guard at the gate. Before they could gain a firm foothold, Laifu sneaked up, turned his back to them, and slowly came over. The old boy even stretched out his hand. With only one hand, he planned to open the door blindly.
When the two servants saw this funny scene, they immediately concluded that their guess was correct and the old guy really wanted to escape.
One of the two people wanted to play a trick on Laifu. When the old boy was not prepared, he suddenly grabbed his hand and scared him so much that he almost lost his soul.
When Laifu found out that the two of them were causing trouble, he immediately became furious and even yelled at them to get out of the way.
This made the two servants feel a little guilty. After all, if Laifu really had something in his heart, once his escape was discovered, he would have acted timid and scared immediately. It would be impossible for him to be so confident. of swearing.
The only explanation for why he dared to do this at this moment is that the words he said were true. The words Zhou Ming just said to excuse himself may have been made up to avoid being punished by his master. .
After thinking about this, the two strong servants felt discouraged. They were usually a little afraid of Laifu, but seeing his domineering look now, they felt even more short. A few minutes later, when the two of them were considering whether to obey and leave the gate to make way for Laifu, an unexpected scene happened.
Laifu not only stopped cursing them and swallowed back the last threat, he even smiled and patiently explained to them the rationale for his going out.
When the two servants saw Laifu being so servile and trying to please them both, they felt relieved. They had suffered a lot from Laifu when they were working under him. He is responsible for remediation, so he knows his personality and work style well.
Both of them knew that if he was at all right, relying on his master's favor, he would be unforgiving and use all his domineering power to kill those who offended him.
Now that the two of them were openly blocking his way, he actually didn't get angry and even changed his tone after scolding them. This undoubtedly proved that he must have some ulterior secret in his heart.
After confirming this, the two servants felt confident. Not only did they have no intention of getting out of the way, one of them even dared to openly mock Laifu:
"Oh, big housekeeper, we brothers don't dare to take your words seriously. You are the big housekeeper in our house. You hold a high position and are deeply loved by our master. Our uncles don't love you, and grandma doesn't love you either. I really don’t dare to have this friendship with you, we two brothers are not worthy.
You usually don't see us two brothers when you are shouting and drinking, but now you suddenly see us two brothers. Is there something hidden in this? "
Laifu's face changed greatly when he was angry. If it was normal, he would have turned against these two servants and beat them up and kicked them out of the Zhou family. But at this moment, he had something to ask for. Even if I feel angry again, I can only endure it, there is no other way.
These two servants were often bullied by Laifu, and now they finally had the opportunity to take revenge on him. How could they miss this great opportunity?
After the first person ridiculed Laifu, he felt so happy when he saw Laifu's expression of being so angry and afraid to speak.
The other person among the two was not to be outdone. He walked up to Laifu, patted Laifu's old face, and said with a sinister smile: "Butler, you really have a lot to worry about today. No wonder our family The master values you so much!
But I have to give you a piece of advice. No matter how glorious you are, you are still a slave. You can worry about some things, but when it comes to big things, you should save your time.
Our master has already prepared a banquet in the study, and plans to celebrate the young master's return with us servants, so just give up, we brothers will definitely not let you go out, just wait. Let's have a meal.
Oh, by the way, there is one more thing I forgot. Our young master has suffered such a serious crime. Isn’t it all your fault? The young master and the old master will reconcile later. Can you miss this big scene? Missing it will be a lifelong regret! "
After these words, the two servants exchanged glances with each other and then laughed.
The words of the two people were like sharp knives, all piercing Laifu's heart. Seeing that there was no chance of escape, Laifu gave up completely. He suddenly fell to the ground, his whole body paralyzed.
Suddenly, he felt a surge of energy all over his body, like the reflection of a dying person. He knelt straight, took out all the money on his body, raised it above his head, and said to the two servants: "Brothers, please spare your lives. I also saw the current situation. If I stayed any longer, my life would be gone!
Please, out of past friendship, you two, help me out. The money will be considered as my buying you a drink. If I can run away smoothly, I will be grateful! "
If you encounter other confused servants in the Zhou Mansion, Laifu's trick might actually work. After all, these servants' wages are not much to begin with, and most of them come from poor backgrounds, which makes it difficult for them to resist. The temptation of money, and Laifu himself had a lot of money, totaling more than ten taels of silver. Even if it was divided between two people, each of them would be left with seven or eight taels.
But the two people in front of them were unmoved by Laifu's money offensive, because they were both smart people and they knew what accepting the money meant.
If they accept this small amount of money out of greed, the troubles in the future will be endless.
Because if they help Laifu escape, if they are found out by their master and young master in the future, they may not only face the danger of being kicked out, but they may also be punished on Laifu's behalf.
Laifu had tricked his young master so badly. If his young master didn't care about the seriousness of his attack and sent them to the West, then they wouldn't even have room to reason.
But if they abide by their duties and never let Laifu go, the benefits to them will be immeasurable.
After all, as long as they stay in the Zhou family and work, once the Zhou family becomes more and more prosperous, they can all benefit from it.
My young master has repeatedly made outstanding achievements in the yamen. If this pace continues, my young master is likely to restore the Zhou family to its former glory and become one of the most famous families in Huijing City. By then, their servants will also follow suit. unlimited.
After Laifu used this last move, he kept looking at the expressions of the two servants nervously, fearing that they would think that the money he gave was too little and categorically reject his request, and then he would really be doomed.
After the two servants saw the silver coin in Laifu's hand, they first looked at each other, then looked at each other and nodded. Then one of them took the silver coin from Laifu's hand and shook it in his hand.
Seeing this scene, Laifu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that these two people took the money and must have planned to let him go.
Before he could be happy, the man who took the silver threw the money into Laifu's face with his backhand: "You old pig, you still have the nerve to say that you are still thinking about our past friendship!
What's your relationship with us brothers? You usually dominate, bully the superiors and deceive the inferiors, and often harm poor people like us. Now that death is imminent, are you afraid? Tell you, it's too late!
Even if you offer us gold and silver today, it’s impossible for the two of us to let go of this scourge like you! What's more, it's just a few taels of silver. You'd better take it back and keep it for the funeral! "
Another servant didn't forget to come up to make up for the damage. He patted Laifu's face and gritted his teeth and said, "Feng Shui has changed. Thirty years have passed since Hedong, and thirty years have passed since Hexi. I didn't expect that you, the old boy, would be where you are today!"
Butler, stop struggling, nothing you say is of any use, give up!
Later, in front of the master, confess your crime honestly, and maybe the master will leave you a complete body. "
