Chapter 582: Mind Tricks

"The clothes don't fit a bit." Xu Hong said nervously. She was actually a little fatter, and her frame was bigger than the original boss's wife. The boss's wife's clothes did look a bit tight on her body and did not fit her well.

"It's just right to be a rough girl and wear ill-fitting clothes." Lu Tong seemed particularly calm at this time. Although he was not old, he was really thoughtful. "I play the role of the shopkeeper. I just took over my father's store. , my father went back to the south to retire. Xun'er, you play the role of the boss's wife, what's your last name?"

"You can get one."

Xun'er said nonchalantly. She was taking care of her bun, trying to cover up some of her beauty.

Xu Hong was unavoidably disgusted at this time, because no matter what, she had to admit that some people's temperament was really suitable for being a boss's wife, but she really seemed to be only suitable for being a maid. Of course, it was also because she was The boss's wife is under a lot of pressure, and she is not very confident in her presence.

"That's it. Now we have to be lucky that those zombies didn't damage the inn. We have cleaned up the blood and disposed of the bodies. Chu Zhao, you are responsible for being the waiter. Li Wei and Ming Kai, you are responsible Become residents and live in a room each on the second floor. Try not to come out if you have nothing to do. Otherwise, it would be unreasonable for such a small shop in the wilderness to have too many people attacking it, and it is not Sun Erniang's shady shop."

Ming Kai and Li Wei were still worried about how they were going to perform later, but when they saw Lu Tong directly arranged for them to be residents, they felt relaxed and went directly upstairs to their rooms.

Lu Tong turned around and looked at Xun'er, "Do you still have holy water? Sprinkle some more holy water in the house. I always feel that there is still some blood smell in this inn, and it must be rinsed with holy water."

"Do you want to waste it like this?" Chu Zhao said with some distress, "I can't smell it anyway."

"Those soldiers in ancient times, couldn't they smell the smell of blood?" Lu Tong asked, "Our main task 2 is to deceive the residents for 48 hours, not to tie them up and feed them with water and food48 Hour."

"Chu Zhao, listen to him." Xun'er said.

"good."

Chu Zhao could only reluctantly take out the holy water and spray it on the places where the dead people were.

"You should be fine. You've seen a lot of the world." Lu Tong looked at Xun'er and said.

Xun'er nodded, "Try your best."

"I'm still curious, is your other half really the audience?" Lu Tong really felt like meeting a goddess with Xun'er. Of course, he controlled this emotion very skillfully, which is not to say that Lu Tong had any How silly and sweet, but he hadn't become an audience at that time. After he was diagnosed with uremia, his girlfriend also broke up with him. He was at the lowest point in his life. When he saw Xun'er wearing military uniform and coming to the hospital to express condolences, he was naturally very happy. It’s easy to touch the soft parts of your heart.

Xun'er just smiled and didn't answer.

Lu Tong also understood his gaffe just now and straightened his collar, "I'll go out to greet you. You don't have to go out. Chu Zhao, let's come together."

The convoy had arrived outside the inn fence. Lu Tong naturally took Chu Zhao out to greet him. When walking out, Lu Tong whispered to Chu Zhao: "Don't be afraid of them. Although they are soldiers, our You are stronger than them, so don’t feel pressured.”

"I see."

As soon as he finished speaking,

"I would like to send my regards to you generals and nobles."

Lu Tong knelt down and kowtowed to the carriage without saying a word.

Chu Zhao on the side was stunned for a moment.

You are numb,

Why didn't you mention this beforehand?

Fortunately, Chu Zhao was not a shy person, and he immediately knelt down and touched his head to the ground.

This scene did not make the knights beside the carriage feel anything strange. They just regarded Chu Zhao as a waiter who had never seen the world and didn't know the rules.

"Take good care of the horses, tidy the cabin, and serve them with all your heart."

The leader, General Man, dropped a silver ingot and gave instructions angrily.

Qing palace dramas give people the illusion that all lower-level people in the Qing Dynasty call themselves slaves when they see their superiors. In fact, the title "slaves" is more popular among the Manchu people themselves.

For example, when Manchu servants or ministers met the emperor, they often called themselves slaves, while Han ministers mostly called themselves ministers. This was not because the Manchus gave the Han ministers the courtesy, but because in the eyes of the Manchus at that time, slaves were their own servants. The title of a person is the affectionate address of the subordinates in the family. You, a Han Chinese, do not deserve to call yourself a slave, you are an outsider.

This is related to the system of the early Manchu people, that is, the Jurchen period. The slaves in the family are part of their family property and are people they can trust and rely on.

Therefore, Lu Tong did not call himself a slave, which also shows that he is really attentive.

He quickly picked up the silver ingot on the ground, and Lu Tong bit it twice with his teeth. He couldn't help but stood up and nodded and bowed. While letting Chu Zhao take the other knights to place the horses, he moved to the sedan chair to wait for the nobles in the carriage. come out.

"Snapped!"

A riding whip hit Lu Tong on the back, causing Lu Tong to feel pain. He was a spiritual and ghost cultivator, and he followed a path similar to Fatty's. His physical body was naturally not very good, so this riding whip was It really hurts.

"A lowly thing like you is worthy of serving Fujin? Ask your mother-in-law to come out and serve him."

General Man scolded.

"Yes, yes, it was a little abrupt."

Lu Tong gave himself two slaps on the face along with Smiley Face, and immediately went in and called himself "Auntie".

The group of people were all arranged into the wing room on the second floor. Even Ming Kai and Li Wei, who had previously pretended to be guests, were driven out to make way for the room. Ming Kai and Li Wei also pretended to be angry and dare not speak. They moved their things downstairs angrily, but the two of them breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't have to be on the same floor with those people, which also saved them a lot of trouble.

Now, there are soldiers standing guard at the entrances of the two corridors on the second floor. There are also two soldiers sleeping and watching over the stable. The entire inn has almost become a semi-military fortress.

Xun'er carried hot water and a handkerchief and slowly went upstairs, ready to help the nobles in the carriage wash up.

Chu Zhao and Lu Tong were busy in the kitchen, Chu Zhao was responsible for lighting the fire, and Lu Tong was responsible for cooking. Fortunately, the requirements for food were not high, and they could just tinker with a few big pot dishes. The only thing that mattered was the food. Eat a lot and be full.

Xun'er knocked on the door,

The maid opened the door, and after Xun'er entered, she walked out.

Xun'er placed the washbasin on the table and asked the woman sitting at the table, "A commoner woman serves a nobleman."

The woman was not very beautiful, and her face was a little pale, but she did have the aura of a lady. She immediately stretched out her armored fingers and gently pressed the edge of the basin, and asked:

"There is such a handsome daughter-in-law in this wilderness. Fortunately, the prince is not here, otherwise he might really take you back home to make a baby."

"The nobleman is joking, the commoner woman is a married woman."

"Haha, what does it mean to be a married woman? Why, judging from your appearance, you still don't want to enter the palace?" The noble lady said a little surprised, "How can you feel comfortable in the palace if you are exposed to the wind and sun outside?"

"A commoner woman is a pariah, but she is used to living a hard life, and she doesn't feel that she has the destiny to be a noble person."

"Haha, if all the Han people in the world thought like you, then the world would really be peaceful. My prince would not have to lead his troops to suppress the rebellion. The slaves and servants would just abide by their duties safely all their lives. Kong Isn’t that what Master said?”

The noble lady stood up and sat in front of the dressing table. "Come on, do you know how to put your hair into a bun?"

Xun'er nodded, "Yes, I just have rough hands, please forgive me."

"It's okay." The noble man was quite satisfied with Xun'er.

Xun'er stood next to the noble lady and started to help her put her hair into a bun. It was inevitable that she would be handicapped. After all, Xun'er had played with his little sister when he was a child when a large family got together during the Chinese New Year. The game of bun-twisting hair was just becoming popular in Qing palace dramas at that time, and Xun'er's mother was also a Manchu, so naturally there was some of this atmosphere.

"A while ago, I just executed a cheap maid. That cheap maid, like you, is also a Han." The noble lady said to herself.

"Um, what's wrong?" Xun'er asked.

"That cheap maid is the daughter of the prince's Han nurse. She has played with the prince since she was a child. I can see that the prince is somewhat interested in her.

But later, when the father-in-law’s family committed a crime, they dragged the prince to come forward and settle the matter. The prince was impeached several times by the imperial censor for this reason. I originally persuaded the prince to help this time, so he did. , He had rewarded her family so much in the early years, and now he has taken on this matter for her family. All the ties of affection have been cleared up.

But that cheap maid doesn’t think so. Our prince is not soft-hearted when leading troops to fight, but when the love between children is long, he really looks like the seeds of infatuation.

Last time, that bitch was kidnapped by a group of thieves. The bitch didn't send a message to her family but to the prince. The prince was so worried that he would be ripped off that he actually went to the appointment incognito and paid the ransom. She was rescued.

I only found out about this later, and I was extremely scared at the moment.

This cheap maid looks like she is infatuated with the prince, but she keeps trying to rely on the prince's good feelings for her to coerce the prince into giving her benefits. Even if she knows that this will put the prince in danger, she will not hesitate to do so. ,

Tell me, should this bitch deserve to die?

If a woman really loves a man, how can she be willing to let him risk his life for her?

If you are really willing,

hehe,

Does this woman love herself more, or does she love that man more? "

The lady looked meaningfully at Xun'er in the mirror, who was doing her hair bun.

Xun'er's hand just took out the hairpin,

A sudden tremor.
