Lan Rufeng was arranged by Wu Bo to stay in the female servant's room in the backyard. He called a maid named Hongye and took her to the laundry room to wash clothes. When she arrived at the laundry room, she saw three other maids washing and drying clothes.

"Xiu'er, these clothes belong to the young master and the general. You can't be careless. You must be gentle when washing. I'll show you first." Hongye whispered to Wang Xiu'er, picked up a piece of clothing and put it in the basin, poured water on it, smeared it with soap, and gently washed it with hands.

"Oh my god, this is called washing clothes? It would be better to just throw them into the water and soak them and rinse them." Lan Rufeng was speechless as he watched Hongye washing clothes.

The three maids next to them watched Hongye teaching the newcomer Wang Xiuer how to wash clothes. Lvliu asked with a smile: "Hongye, where did the housekeeper find this girl?"

"I don't know, wash it quickly." Hongye said, calling Wang Xiuer to come over and wash it for her to watch.

Lan Rufeng rolled up her sleeves and walked forward to wash clothes, imitating Hongye's method. She had been washing clothes since she was a child, and her family conditions were average. She had done this before, so she could just treat this method of washing as touching.

Hongye looked at Wang Xiuer and said with a smile: "Xiuer, you are very skillful. You can learn it quickly. Let's work hard to wash these clothes, and then we can go to have lunch."

"Okay..." Lan Rufeng responded and worked hard to wash clothes. After washing a few pieces, she asked, "Sister Hongye, how much monthly salary do you get in the mansion?"

"Xiu'er, why are you asking this? Didn't the housekeeper tell you?" Lvliu asked.

"Sister, the housekeeper didn't tell me that Xiu'er was almost sold to Yihongyuan because she broke other people's things on the street and had no money to compensate. The young master felt sorry for Xiu'er and helped her pay five taels of silver. Xiu'er came to the mansion to work to pay off the debt." Lan Rufeng whispered softly.

"Oh, so you are not a bought maid, but you are here to work to pay off a debt." Luliu suddenly realized.

"Xiu'er, a maid in the mansion earns only 300 wen a month, a second-class maid earns 200 wen, and a third-class maid earns 100 wen. You owe the young master five taels of silver.

We are second-class maids. If you want to pay back the five taels of silver to the master, you have to work for at least five years." Hongye calculated the account for Wang Xiuer.

"By the time I pay off my debts, I'll be an old maid, won't anyone want me then?" Lan Rufeng acted aggrieved upon hearing this, and sat down on the ground and refused to wash.

"Girl, why are you still feeling aggrieved? Get up quickly, or it will be troublesome if someone sees you." Hongye looked at Wang Xiuer who was sitting on the ground and reproached her.

Lvliu and the other three laughed. They thought Wang Xiu'er was so silly and cute that she couldn't understand the situation and felt wronged.

"What's going on?" Qingwu came to call Wang Xiuer, and when she came in, she saw her sitting on the ground and asked.

"Greetings, Miss Qing." Several maids hurriedly bowed to greet Qing Wu when they saw her.

"Sister..." Lan Rufeng saw Qingwu and called out to her as she got up from the ground. She asked aggrievedly, "Is there any job that pays more?"

Qingwu heard what Wang Xiuer said and looked at Hongye and the others. Hongye told Qingwu what happened just now. Qingwu looked at Wang Xiuer in silence and hated getting married.

"Come with me to see the young master." Qing Wu said as she turned around. Suddenly, her sleeves felt tighter. She looked back and saw Wang Xiuer pulling her.

"Sister, Xiu'er is afraid, afraid of the young master. Can she see the general?" Lan Rufeng asked cautiously.

"Let's go!" Qingwu was too lazy to argue with this girl, so she pulled out her sleeves and left.

Lan Rufeng pouted and deliberately limped along behind Qingwu to avoid anyone noticing anything unusual.

"Hongye, where do you think this girl come from? She dares to lose her temper and isn't she afraid of losing her life." Lvliu just felt that Wang Xiuer was a fool.

"How would I know? The housekeeper asked me to bring her here, so I did. Go wash her quickly." Hongye answered and hurried to work.

Qing Wu led Wang Xiu'er to the main hall. Seeing her standing at the door without entering, she reached out and pulled her in, then bowed and reported what happened in the backyard.

Lan Rufeng huddled behind Qingwu, half-raised his head and listened to her report, his eyes swept over everyone in the hall, in addition to Bai Chuchao and Bai Zhiyi, Wu Ye was also there. Wu Ye took off his armor and wore a light gray brocade robe, surprisingly handsome.

As they listened to Qingwu's report to her master, they all felt that this ordinary girl in front of them was too narcissistic and even wanted to get married.

"You still want to get married even though you're like this?" Sun Suyun said sarcastically.

"Auntie, Xiu'er doesn't agree with what you said. Even if Xiu'er looks a little ordinary, she can still go out, right?" Lan Rufeng tilted his head and looked at Sun Suyun on the right to refute.

"You are a wild girl, and you dare to talk back." Sun Suyun yelled at Wang Xiuer

Lan Rufeng pretended to be scared, shrinking his head and moving little by little towards Bai Zhiyi. His movements were so funny that made people want to laugh.

"Wang Xiu'er, come here." Bai Chu waved at Wang Xiu'er who was watching Chao Zhiyi move away.

Lan Rufeng looked at Bai Chuchao who was waving at her, and limped slowly towards him, stopping three steps away from him.

Bai Chuchao looked at Wang Xiuer who stopped two or three steps away from him, staring into her clear eyes, and beckoned her to come over.

"Fuck you, are you hooking a puppy?" Lan Rufeng cursed inwardly as she watched Bai Chu hook her finger at her. She grabbed the pigtails in front of her chest and pretended to be nervous as she moved forward.

"Tell me, sir, where are you from? Why did you appear in Moshui City?" Bai Chuchao asked Wang Xiuer in front of him.

"My Lord, Xiu'er is from Wangjia Village. She was going to Loushan County in Jinjiang City to look for her fiancé, her cousin. She had just said goodbye to her mother this morning and went into the city to look for her cousin, but she got into trouble.

Sir, my cousin is still waiting for Xiu'er to get married! Can you find a job for Xiu'er that pays more?" Lan Rufeng blinked and told Bai Chuchao the identity he got from the woman.

Bai Chuchao and everyone else were a little surprised to hear that this girl, who looked so ordinary, was actually engaged.

"If you want to do a high-paying job, what do you have?" Wu Ye asked curiously.

Lan Rufeng turned her head to look at Wu Ye, bit her lip and said, "This handsome brother, Xiu'er will make something delicious."

“Handsome brother…” When everyone heard Wang Xiuer call Wu Ye “handsome brother”, the corners of their mouths couldn’t help twitching. A grown man was called a sissy by her.

"Wang Xiu'er, stop shouting. This is General Wu Ye, the defender of Mo Shui City." Mo Qingshui scolded the rude Wang Xiu'er.

"Ah..." Lan Rufeng pretended to be surprised and quickly bowed to apologize: "I'm sorry, General Wu."

Bai Chuchao stretched out his hand and grabbed Wang Xiuer's arm, pulling her in front of him. Lan Rufeng was so frightened that she lost her balance and fell in front of him. Her chin was pinched, and she met Bai Chuchao's cold gaze.

"The more I look at your eyes, the more I like them." Bai Chuchao said, raising his left hand and reaching towards Wang Xiuer's eyes.

"No, sir, please don't dig out my eyes." Lan Rufeng pretended to be frightened and trembled all over and begged, forcing herself to squeeze out tears.

"Dig out her eyes..." Everyone was even more speechless when they heard this. Does the master look like he wants to dig out her eyes? Look how she is shaking? She is as scared of death as a sieve.
