C11

The green-robed Daoist Priest carried his bag and walked to the city gate. He was stopped by the military service at the city gate, so it did not make things difficult for him. He flipped through his clothes, asked for his name, and let him pass.

At the same time, a man similar to a captain of the city guards walked over and whispered into the ear of one of the military officers.

He saw that the soldier was in ecstasy as he ran towards the city.

As he ran, he secretly rejoiced in his heart: This must be done well, perhaps the young city lord will find me pleasing to the eye and let me join the army.

I heard that once you enter the army, you get two taels of silver a month.

The most important thing was that this was the first team of the future master of Whirlwind City. It would be difficult for them not to develop.

"..."

The green-robed Daoist Priest was extremely anxious, but he could not use Daoist techniques in the city. After all, he was not a person of the secular world.

In order to not attract attention, he could only secretly exert strength at his feet, which was much faster than ordinary pedestrians.

After a while, the green-robed Daoist Priest dusted off the dust on his body and sighed in his heart, "I've finally arrived."

The two stone lions in front of the Liu Residence were carved into the shape of tigers and tigers. Under the illumination of the sun, the two words' Liu Residence ', written in purple and gold, reflected brightly on the signboard above his head. He was still the same as before, vaguely more imposing than he was ten years ago.

The green-robed Daoist raised his leg and was about to enter when a servant ran over in a hurry and shouted, "Where did this poor Daoist come from? I wonder if our Liu Clan hates people like you who put on an act the most."

"This Penniless Priest is …"

"Look at what I'm saying, you guys only know some tricks to fool people. Scram, if the head steward sees you, you'll be thrown onto the street."

"This Penniless Priest is not …"

"Alright, alright, I just want money, right? "I'll give you some personally. This is something that I just received yesterday. Take a tael of silver with you. You and I are both pitiful people in this world. My heart is truly kind."

"Why are you still not leaving? If you don't leave, I'll really be called the main butler. Don't say that I'm heartless." As the young servant spoke, he painfully took out his wife's book.

"That's great. Go and tell him that it's time to meet him." The Daoist Priest couldn't help but smile when he saw the young servant reluctantly handing over a taoist boy with a shred of silver.

"How can you be so stubborn? There are so many rich families in the city, yet you want to go to the Liu Clan. The most important thing is, before coming here, you didn't ask around. Our Liu Clan hates Taoists the most."

"One tael of silver isn't enough for you. You can't even get one tael of silver when the head steward arrives."

"You're still laughing, and you're still laughing. You're really pissing me off, you ass who won't turn back until you hit the wall. Just wait here, and I'll call for you, but at that time, I won't be able to protect you, so don't hold a grudge against me." The young servant muttered as he walked into the manor.

The Daoist stood straight at the door, looking at the little servant who ran away like a wisp of smoke, and thought to himself, "Ten years, it really is a new generation replacing the old. I wonder which guy was the main butler in the past."

The young servant hurriedly ran into the garden and saw a middle-aged man wearing a square hat reprimanding two maidservants.

As he scolded them, he said, "Didn't I tell you to be careful? Master Er is going home right away. Look at this flower that was ruined by you guys, do you see what kind of flower it is? "

"What a headache. It's fortunate that Second Master has always been good to his servants. If it were Eldest Young Master, you would know what he would look like."

The two maidservants hurriedly nodded their heads in apology. They wished that they could hide their heads in their necks, not daring to raise their heads in shame.

"What are you guys standing there in a daze for? Do you want me to treat you guys to a meal?" If you don't hurry up and take down these flowers and herbs, then get a new batch of cut ones. "

"Don't make any more mistakes, if you make any more mistakes, then I won't be able to explain myself."

"Yes, yes, Chief Steward, we will not make any more mistakes." The two maidservants at the side were submissive as they spoke.

"Alright, go on. Don't make any more mistakes. It's not easy for everyone to survive in a high-gate courtyard. Second Elder usually loves cleanliness, so you guys are very considerate."

"I wonder when second master will return. I really miss him a bit." He picked up a cup of tea and started to taste it.

Suddenly, a voice came from the side, "Chief Steward!"

The butler nearly threw the teacup in his hands after being yelled at. His neck became ice-cold.

Turning his head to look, he saw a servant looking at him with a pleasant smile, goosebumps appearing all over his body.

"You're going to die, Little Seven, don't you want to walk with the wind? If you weren't standing guard at the door, why are you running over to my place … Don't tell me he's here for a reward. " The butler looked suspiciously at the grey robed servant called Xiao Qi.

"No, Chief Steward, how could I be so tactless?" Xiao Qi lowered her body and said in a flattering manner.

"The main reason is that a wandering Taoist came by the door. I guess he must be here to ask for a reward from the Liu family. But didn't you say that someone of nobility is here?" "I kindly advised him to leave for another rich family. After all, our Liu family has never liked Taoists."

"I even asked for a purse of my own and gave him the money I used to get a wife."

"But who would have thought that he would not know what was good for you? I brought out your name, but he didn't seem to care. He even clamored for you to go and see him. Look, do you think I should arrange for a few people to knock him out so that he wouldn't accidentally offend your benefactor? " Xiao Qi giggled.

"Stop smiling, be serious."

Hearing the chief steward's shout, Xiao Qi's face immediately tensed up.

He thought to himself: I can't afford to offend you, I can't afford to provoke you.

"Since he asked me to go see him by name. Fine, I want to see which immortal actually dares to behave so atrociously in front of my Liu family's gate. " The steward took a sip of tea. It was the Dragon Well after the rain that the Old Master had gifted to him a few days ago.

"Let's go, Xiao Qi. Follow me and have a look." After saying so, he put down the teacup and walked towards the main entrance of the Liu residence in a vigorous and vigorous manner.

Little Seven followed eagerly, swearing to himself as he followed: "As expected of the head steward, walking is even grander than us. I will also need to take a decent eight-word step in the future."

"By the way, Chief Steward, he even said that he was a Taoist coming to see him. He made it seem like someone wanted to know his name, but couldn't sell him for money." Xiao Qi said in disdain.

The main butler was humming a small tune as he slowly thought about how he would punish this smelly Daoist who dared to pluck at the Liu family's tiger's whiskers.

Housekeeper Hua almost kneeled to the floor after hearing those words.

Because he had heard the Old Master say that the Second Master had gone to some Green Mountain Temple to become a Daoist, and had even given him the monastic name of 'Daoist infatuation'.

"Are you sure? He really calls himself an idiot."

"Mhmm, I heard it clearly. What do you think? Does the main butler know this reputed Taoist." The head steward turned his head abruptly, giving Xiao Qi a fright, and hurriedly nodded his head as he spoke.

"Little Ancestor, you've caused me so much trouble." He no longer dared to leisurely walk away. Before running, he ruthlessly kicked Xiao Qi.

The head steward only wished that his parents had given birth to a few fewer legs. Otherwise, he would have flown to the manor a long time ago.

Xiao Qi sat on the ground in a daze.

After a while, he climbed up from the ground and shouted to the head steward, "Slow down! Wait for me there!"
