Chapter 138
Chapter 138
Yun Xiu's sudden appearance drew everyone's attention. However, except for Le Zhengli, everyone else was a little slow to react to her appearance. Then, she was asked to kneel first, losing the opportunity to blame her. And with Le Zhengli's conversation, there was no chance to blame her.
"Miss Yunxiu is here to apologize on behalf of Miss Mu Xin?"
Yun Xiu had already stood up. She turned to Le Zhengli and answered respectfully, "Yes, Master Li." Then she turned to Le Zhengfang and Le Zhengqin and saluted, saying, "Master Qin, Aunt Fang, our young lady is weak. This is her second time on such a long journey, and she is not used to the climate and soil of Jimen Pass.
Considering that he collapsed the first time he arrived at the Painting City and slept for several days before waking up, he was afraid of delaying things, so he had no choice but to set up a barrier.
This is a barrier that the master developed specifically for the young lady's health. It will not have any effect on Le Zheng. Please forgive me, Mr. Qin and Aunt Fang. Yun Xiu would like to thank Le Zheng on behalf of the young lady. "
Yun Xiu knelt before them again. This time she did not stand up immediately. It was obvious that she was waiting for either of them to speak.
Her every move was perfect and there was no way to criticize her. Besides, after saying this, it would be unreasonable if Le Zheng still couldn't understand.
Le Zhengqin couldn't help but clench his fists, glanced at Le Zhengfang, and planned to throw this matter away.
Le Zhengfang was very happy. She was still waiting for someone and couldn't let anything unexpected happen at this time.
"Your name is Yunxiu, right?"
"Yes."
"This Taoist priest serves the young lady and is also included in the dowry. This is the first time I have seen this. If you are a maid, with this much magical power, isn't the threshold for a maid in the Mu Mansion a bit too high?"
Yunxiu straightened her back, folded her hands on her abdomen, then slightly bowed, and finally straightened her back and looked at Le Zhengfang and replied: "Aunt, Yunxiu is just the young lady's personal maid, and she is only devoted to the young lady. If Le Zheng regards Yunxiu as a maid, please forgive Yunxiu for refusing to accept her."
"A maid who serves the young lady of a Taoist family is considered an overestimation, isn't it?"
Le Zhengfang disagreed with Le Zheng Sihui's statement and couldn't help but want to refute her, but Yun Xiu just stood up and faced her without any greeting.
"Master, this is wrong. You think that's because you are ignorant, right?"
"you……"
Yun Xiu turned around and stood up straight.
"Yun Xiu's status in the Mu Mansion is not low, and Uncle Li is also aware of this. Now I am just following the generation of my future son-in-law, but this does not mean that anyone can ride on my head.
If you respect me a little, I will respect you a little. If you belittle and look down on me, I will naturally not be polite.
By the way, I still want to remind you that I, Yunxiu, cannot bear to see Miss suffer any injustice. Miss is the most beloved person in the Mu family, and we in the Mu family are famous for protecting our shortcomings."
When she said "you guys", Yunxiu turned to look at Lezheng Sihui and Lezheng Ningsi, then turned to Lezheng Fang and Lezheng Qin, bowed, and said, "The young lady and the son-in-law are almost here, Yunxiu will take her leave first."
She bent her body with a very respectful look, and quickly retreated. She only turned around and used magic to leave after she reached outside the eaves. They didn't even have the slightest chance to refute her.
"How can this be absurd? A mere maid is actually speaking nonsense in front of my Lezheng Temple. It is really infuriating."
There was a tone in Le Zheng Sihui's voice that showed she was blaming the two of them for their incompetence as the people in power in Le Zheng, as they allowed an outsider, a young lady's personal maid, to come here so freely and say such impudent words without anyone making a statement.
"Hahaha, Master Sihui, if you still treat her as just a 'mere maid', you will suffer."
"Why does Master Uncle always help outsiders?"
"I'm saving your life, and you'll probably have to thank me later.
The Mu family is indeed protective of their own people, and Miss Mu Xin is well-known for this.
When her barrier is deployed, you are already a fish on the chopping board, it just depends on whether she is willing to slaughter you.
As she said, for these two people, if you respect them a little, they will respect you a little. It is possible to keep to one side and not interfere with the other.
But once you, the well water, want to offend their river water, you will just be like the well water entering the river, without a trace."
Le Zhengqin slammed the table, and Le Zheng Sihui had to swallow back the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
"Since they have become my music masters, they should follow my music masters' rules."
“When you see Yun Xiu, you should know that you are no match for her. Only those who are too weak will have a wrong understanding of their own position.
Patriarch, ah, Patriarch, you are one of the few people here who realizes that you are not as good as Yun Xiu, and you even said this. I really want to see what Le Zheng is capable of fighting them head-on.
Or if Aunt Fang comes forward and talks it over, there won't be any problem. What will you choose?"
Le Zhengli put his hands on the armrests, looking like he was watching a show, and no one present dared to say anything.
Soon, Mu Xin and Le Zheng Yuhua walked in. The four maids quickened their pace and walked to the eaves, two standing on each side. Then they put the handle of the lantern on their left hands, bent down and gently placed their foreheads against the handle of the lantern.
This was always something that only maids did, and suddenly two little boys appeared, dressed in other people's clothes. Le Zhengfang stood up anxiously.
The special personnel who were already waiting to greet them, because of the private instructions just given by Le Zheng Sihui, wanted to give them some courtesy, because as long as they came out late, they would have to wait at the door.
Now I was panicked. I hurried out but could only stand on the outside. The posture I hastily posed was wrong, so I had to correct it quickly.
Seeing this scene, Le Zhengfang could only cover his face, shake his head and sit down. Only then did Le Zhengying rush in from the side.
Le Zhengqin directly accused her: "What's going on? Why did someone from the Mu Mansion come in?"
"We have been waiting for a while, but we haven't been called yet. Miss Mu's body can't wait any longer, so..."
"Even so, you should have stopped it."
Le Zhengying knelt down and admitted his mistake.
"Please punish me, head of the family."
"Now that things have come to this, the head of the family should punish us later, so as to avoid letting the people of the Mu Mansion laugh at us again."
Le Zhengqin glanced at Le Zhengfang, suppressed his anger, asked Le Zhengying to get up, and continued the process.
When Mu Xin passed by a maid named Le Ying, she gently patted the back of her right hand with her left hand, which was placed on her right hand. She immediately understood what she meant.
Mu Xin released the illusion maze not just for herself (she could still withstand the current level of demonic energy), but also to prevent the identities of the four of them from being exposed.
These four newly recruited maids are two boys and two girls. One of the girls is named Le Ying and the other is Yin Li. They also have their own purposes for coming here.
